When I arrived at this road, I was not far from home, and after another night, I arrived at the post station where Liu Man'er stayed before, and then I arrived at Fengyang County, Fengyang County stayed overnight, and the next day Liu Man'er and the caravan accelerated their speed, and finally came to the county seat before dark.

It's twenty-nine at the moment.

Tomorrow is the New Year.

When leaving, the bustling crowd was suddenly a lot less, and the whole street was a little empty, Liu Man'er first came to his restaurant, and Han Shixin was lying behind the counter napping, because Liu Man'er didn't speak, and he didn't know where to go.

Liu Man'er walked over and knocked on his table, he was stunned, raised his head, and saw that it was Liu Man'er, and hurriedly stood up straight: "Shopkeeper Ye!" ”

"No need to be polite, go, pack our things, let's go home tonight." Liu Man'er said with a smile.

"Now?" Han Shixin was still a little surprised, he thought that he would not be able to celebrate the New Year with his wife, son and daughter this year, but he didn't expect Liu Man'er to let him pack his things now and go back.

"Yes, you go pack your things first, and I'll go see if there's anyone in my snack shop." Liu Man'er said and said, "Hurry up, give you two quarters of an hour, and you won't wait for the expiration date." ”

After Liu Man'er finished speaking, she went to the snack shop, the two shops were not very far apart, and they arrived in a few minutes, and there was no one at the snack shop except Liu Yunsheng who stayed there.

When Liu Man'er went, Liu Yunsheng was about to close the door, and when he saw Liu Man'er, his face suddenly showed a surprised expression: "Sister, are you here?" ”

"Yes, second brother, why haven't you gone back yet?" Liu Man'er asked.

"I'm not waiting for you." Liu Yunsheng put up the hand that was about to put the door panel and said, "Come in and talk." ”

"No need, second brother, pack up your things, we'll go home tonight." Liu Man'er said hurriedly, "Otherwise, the city gate may be closed later." ”

"Oh, good." Liu Yunsheng nodded and said, "Even if you don't come today, I plan to go back tomorrow morning, so my things are packed, you wait for me for a while." ”

With that, he ran to the backyard, and after a while he came out with a baggage.

After carefully inspecting the house, making sure that the fire had been extinguished, and packing up the remaining little food, Liu Yunsheng closed the door.

Just locked down, and after a while, Han Shixin also ran over sweating profusely with his burden.

"Come up." Liu Man'er pushed two steps away and helped Han Shixin take over things.

Han Shi got on the horse newly, and when he saw that it was Liu Yunsheng who was driving the horse, he hurriedly said: "The little one is coming to drive the horse." ”

"Will you drive horses?" Liu Man'er asked.

"Well, it's just that there is a fork in the road, and I have to trouble the master to show the way." Han Shixin said.

"No problem." Liu Man'er nodded and said, "My family's road is very easy to walk, out of the city, you are right to walk straight along this road." ”

"Okay." Han Shixin responded with a word, and drove the horse to the city gate, and it was just right, the city guards were about to close the city gate, and when they saw that the person in the carriage was Han Shixin, they didn't even check it, so they let them pass.

Who doesn't know, this Korean style is the shopkeeper of the Yan family restaurant, they naturally won't be embarrassed, but Liu Man'er still asked Han Style to give some money to the people at the city gate, and the city keeper saw Han Style Xin doing this, and his face smiled.

After wishing each other a happy new year and a few words of greeting, Han Shixin drove the horse away.

On the way, Liu Yunsheng told Liu Man'er, he said that he took it upon himself to let a few girls go back first this morning, Liu Man'er nodded, and said: "Second brother, what you did is right, since I handed over this shop to the second brother, this little thing, you don't need to tell me in the future." ”

"Well, I just said it casually, you think these little girls are lazy." Liu Yunsheng said.

"Knowing that the second brother is a bodhisattva, and I feel sorry for these little girls, don't worry, I won't blame them." Liu Man'er joked with a smile, and asked again: "Second brother is going home tomorrow, right?" ”

"Yes." Liu Yunsheng nodded and said, "When the time comes, I may bring the grass back with me." ”

"Yes, I won't go back, just say hello to my parents and help me bring the gift back when the time comes." Liu Man'er said with a smile.

"Hmm." Liu Fusheng nodded, knowing that the Ye family was indeed inseparable from her now.

"Second brother, you must remember to come over early, my shop is still waiting for you to come and open." Liu Man'er admonished.

"Yes." Liu Yunsheng nodded.

Liu Man'er said: "Second brother, you have worked hard this year, and I will send you a big red envelope when I go back and read the account book." ”

Hearing Liu Man'er's words, Liu Yunsheng did not refuse, but looked quite expectant.

Liu Man'er felt that he was also a little like a child.

After talking for a while, Liu Man'er felt a little tired, so she asked Liu Yunsheng to give Han Shixin directions, while she herself leaned in the carriage, anyway, there was a quilt and mink in her carriage, and the cushion was warm and comfortable.

After a short rest, before falling asleep, the carriage stopped, and without command, Shuai Shuai took the initiative to jump out, and after seeing the familiar door, it slipped in and opened the door.

"Ah, Shuai Shuai is back." When Ye He saw Shuai Shuai, he knew that it was Liu Man'er who came back, and hurriedly ran over, but saw a stranger driving back in a carriage.

"Little Lotus." Liu Yunsheng jumped down from the carriage, and Ye He ran over, "Brother Yunsheng, are you back?" ”

"yes." Liu Yunsheng nodded and said, "Guess, who else is back?" ”

"Sister-in-law." Ye He didn't have to guess to know, Liu Man'er heard Ye He's voice and got out of the carriage.

Ye He saw that it was indeed Liu Man'er, so he ran over at once, threw himself into Liu Man'er's arms, and said, "Sister-in-law, you are finally back, I miss you." ”

"Really." Liu Man'er touched Ye He's head and said, "I haven't seen you for a while, Xiaohe, you have grown taller." ”

"Yes, we haven't seen my sister-in-law for a month, so we're worried about you." Ye He said.

"Don't worry about me, didn't I come back in good condition? But my sister-in-law has been worried about you outside. Liu Man'er said and led Ye He to go home.

"Sister-in-law, have you seen your eldest brother?" Ye He asked.

"See." Liu Man'er nodded.

"What is the big brother doing now?" Ye He asked again.

"Wait a minute, you have to let me go to the house to rest, and say hello to my mother." Liu Man'er knew that the Fang clan also had something to say to her, so she thought it would be better to wait for a unified answer.

Fang Shi had already walked over when he heard the sound in the backyard, and after seeing Liu Man'er, he pulled her over, looked her up and down, and saw that she had not changed, so he said, "Go out, it seems that she has lost weight and is darker." ”

"Didn't you?" Liu Man'er touched her face, but she felt that her skin was a little rough by the wind, but it shouldn't turn black.

"It's good to be back." Fang didn't say much, just walked forward and asked again, "Have you eaten?" ”

"Nope." Liu Man'er shook her head.

"I haven't eaten so late, I don't know if I'm hungry?" Fang Shi said and instructed Aunt Han, "Aunt Han, help make some food." ”

"Hey, okay." Aunt Han had already seen Liu Yunsheng behind Liu Man'er and her own man, exchanged glances with him, and then lowered her head and was busy cooking.

Han Fang also went to the backyard to help Aunt Han cook, and Fulu came over to help Liu Man'er pour water, and all the people in the room rushed to the main house.

Ye Tianchen also knew that Liu Man'er was his mother, so he stumbled into her arms, "Mother." ”

"Hey, that's good." Liu Man'er also touched his head, then raised her head to Fang Shi and said, "When I thought of going home, I forgot that I was hungry, and when I saw you, I felt that I didn't even need to eat." ”

"You stupid boy, it's been a hard journey, hasn't it?" Fang asked, she also had a full stomach and wanted to ask Liu Man'er.

Liu Man'er said: "These nights, we went to the study and said, I'll go and get the things I bought on the carriage first." ”

Saying that, she said, "Uncle Han, come over for a moment." ”

Han Shixin walked over, and Liu Man'er introduced Fang's family: "Mother, his name is Han Shixin, and he is Aunt Han's husband, I bought them together at that time and kept them in the restaurant." ”

"Oh." Fang Shi nodded and said, "Didn't I meet him last time I went to the county seat?" ”

"Oops, I forgot." Liu Man'er patted her head and said, "Then I'll go and get the things I bought on the road first." ”

As she spoke, she instructed Piao Hongfeihua and others to help go to the backyard to get things, and asked Han Ping to unload the carriage, feed the horses, and then boil some water to wash the horses.

Along the way, I was indeed tired of this horse.

Then she threw Shuai Shuai to the grass and asked her to wait to help wash it.

Shuai Shuai didn't take a shower all the way, she must have been very dirty, but she wasn't much better, at least the clothes outside had been worn for many days, and now that she came home, she had to clean up her body.

Of course, it's better to take out the gifts for everyone first, so that everyone can be happy first.

Liu Man'er's favorite thing is to distribute gifts to these children, and every time she sees their happy smiling faces, she feels very happy.

After a few girls helped put all the things she bought on the table, she began to distribute gifts, first picking up a beautiful brocade box, opening it, and saying: "This is a pearl, originally intended to be a gift for your mother, but Young Master Yan said it was fake, so it was placed in our study." ”

With that, she handed it to Floating Green and asked her to wait and help set it up.

Then he took out a few mink skins and said, "The mink skins bought in Daqing City in the north are warm and comfortable, and they will be used to make clothes when the time comes." ”

"Oh, Xiaohe, this is the silk flowers, handkerchiefs, purses, fans, etc. that you bought for the girls, you wait and send them to Cao'er, and send some to the little girls of Fulu."

Liu Man'er said and handed over a burden.
