Chapter 143: It's New Year's End Again

Then she took the lake pens and graphite she bought to Ye Feng, and asked Ye Feng to give a little to Liu Fusheng, and Ye Feng was also very happy after getting the gift.

"This is a lake pen and Hui ink, do you like it?" Liu Man'er asked.

"I like it." Both little ones nodded.

"If you like it, just read it, don't waste pen and ink, you know." Liu Man'er said to them, and then took some miscellaneous items into her room.

Of course, she would not forget the absinthe she had brought back, so she found a flower pot, planted it raw, and brought it to the balcony of her room.

As soon as she was cleaned up, Cao'er came over to ask her to eat, went downstairs to have dinner, and then took a beautiful bath, and then came to the study to tell everyone what she had seen and heard along the way and what everyone wanted to know about Ye Yuan.

Knowing that Ye Yuan was very good and had become a little general, the Fang family was relieved, she didn't ask him to glorify his ancestors, she just hoped that he would be safe.

As for this group of little guys, they are very interested in what Liu Man'er has seen and heard along the way, and Liu Man'er has also picked some things and added some legends to tell them, and these children are very happy.

Until they were about to go to bed, they were still a little unsatisfied, but unfortunately tomorrow was the New Year, and everyone had to get up early, so under Fang's urging, they also went back to their rooms to sleep.

Early the next morning, Liu Man'er was busy with these things to worship her ancestors in the house, such as paper money, incense sticks, and boiled pig's heads.

In previous years, Ye Yuan was prepared, but this year Ye Yuan was not at home, Liu Man'er was the leader of the juniors, and the Ye family was now the leader, and she had to do these things to worship the ancestors.

Fortunately, Fang was by her side and told her what she should do, otherwise, she would definitely be blind and would not understand anything.

After worshipping the ancestors, everyone started to eat breakfast, after breakfast, Liu Yunsheng and Cao'er should go home, Liu Man'er prepared a big red envelope for one of them, and then let them bring back some dried fruits and other things they brought from other places, and let them bring some chickens and ducks back.

Anyway, let them pick up a load of things and go back, but they were all agreed with the Fang family, and even the Fang family helped clean it up, so the other villagers saw it and said two sour words, and didn't say anything else.

Last year, it was Ye Yuan who set up the lanterns at home, and this year the Fang family did not prepare these, and Liu Man'er came back late, and he didn't have time to buy them, so this year was a little deserted, but this year there were a lot more servants in the family, adding up to seven or eight people, which made this courtyard much more lively.

When it was time to eat lunch, Ye Qing hadn't come home yet, Fang Shi sighed, when she went to the town before, she had already seen Ye Qing, he said that he would go home for the New Year, but he didn't expect that he still hadn't come back.

When the dishes were almost cold, Fang Shi said, "Let's eat." ”

"Don't wait." Liu Man'er said.

"Alas, the food is going to be cold." Fang Shi complained: "I told him a long time ago that he would come back early, and I don't know what he was doing in the county seat, and he hasn't come back by this time." ”

"Don't worry, the food is cold, just heat it up." Liu Man'er said a word, and then everyone began to wait again.

After all, it is the reunion day of the New Year, and Ye Yuan is already a pity because he can't come back, if even Ye Qing doesn't come back, it will be too disappointing.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Ye Qing came back, seeing him hurrying back, Fang didn't speak, just said lightly: "Open." ”

But Liu Man'er saw that she was in a very bad mood, but as a daughter-in-law, she didn't have much to say, forget it, anyway, the person was back, and she didn't ask much about what he was busy with.

The night was still the same as last year, probably because Ye was far away, Liu Man'er's interest was not high, she went to sleep as soon as she passed, and she didn't go outside to pick any firewood.

The next day was the New Year after all, although there was no joy for the New Year, but thinking that it was the New Year, she couldn't be sad, so she still dressed up, and this year Fang's and Yun Niang and others helped her prepare new clothes, which were just right for her after putting them on.

After greeting the New Year with Fang's family, and waiting for the people in the house to greet her for the New Year, she took out the purse she had prepared early and sent it to them, and she sat alone in the study and began to write notes.

The children all went to the village to pay New Year's greetings, and the firecrackers outside sounded and the people who came to pay New Year's greetings had smiles on their faces, but Liu Man'er was not interested, but they were only separated for a few days, and she missed him a little.

I wonder if he's doing well outside alone? In what way do you spend the New Year in the army? Do the men in their army also sing and dance?

Liu Man'er didn't know what they were like, and he couldn't receive it anyway when he wrote to him, as if as soon as he came back, he would be separated from him forever.

Standing upstairs in the afternoon, watching the dragon and lion dance procession pass by the courtyard of her house, and after turning around, heading towards other villages, everyone's faces are smiling, but Liu Man'er is not in the mood.

She was a little stuffy for a few days, probably because the weather was too cold, she didn't want to go anywhere, so she stayed at home every day, talking to Fang's family, or embroidering with Yun Niang.

Yun Niang is also a pitiful, she has a home but can't go back, fortunately, she can still live in Liu Man'er's house and find a quiet place, otherwise, it will be difficult to return to her parents' house.

"Man'er, why don't you go out this year?" Fang's saw that Liu Man'er was at home for a few days, and she didn't go to pay New Year's greetings, and other little daughters-in-law liked to go to their familiar daughters-in-law to chat with them at this time, but Liu Man'er didn't, she stayed at home every day.

What's more, she doesn't have a daughter-in-law to talk about in this village, she used to be stupid and stupid, and others didn't want to play with her, and then she went to the county every day, and no one spoke to her when she went out early and returned late.

Liu Man'er suddenly felt a little pitiful, why didn't she even feel like she had a friend? But think about it, there are so many things at home, all kinds of things are enough for her to worry about every day, where does she have time to make friends, not to mention, she doesn't have this need for the time being.

The women in the village met her occasionally, and they just nodded and asked, "Have you eaten?" "Nothing else.

"I don't like to hang out." Liu Man'er said: "I have this free time, it is better to accompany you more at home, and I may be busy in the county seat when the time comes." ”

In fact, after the beginning of the year, there is nothing to keep her busy, and she has no ambitions, she thinks that it is okay for her shop to open like this, and she has thought about opening a branch before, but now she doesn't want to, so be it, Xiaofu is safe.

If Young Master Yan of the restaurant wants to open a branch, let him open it, and let him make two more profits, after all, this time to open a restaurant, he will account for six points of profit, which is indeed a big light.

It's stuffy at home, roasting fire at home all day long, and when someone comes, they will receive it, the two aunts who I hated before, Liu Man'er doesn't have the energy to care about them, as long as it's not too much, let them take advantage of it, it's not a problem.

It's okay for the New Year, she plays Go with Ye Feng or Liu Fusheng every day, and the two little guys take turns reading books and taking turns playing Go with her.

When she played Go with Liu Fusheng, she won most of them, but when she played Go with Ye Feng, she lost a lot, and the more she lost, the more she wanted to win, if it weren't for Ye Feng's study, Liu Man'er would want Ye Feng to accompany her to play Go every day.

Fortunately, a few of them brought this style of Go to others, and soon, Ye He, Fulu and Yun Niang would all play Go, and Liu Man'er would play chess with them every day.

In the morning, everyone competed in archery, wrote in the morning, and played Go in the afternoon and evening.

When he was in the sixth year of junior high school, Liu Yunsheng came over with Cao'er, and in the eighth year of junior high school, Liu Man'er took the whole family to the county seat to open a store, which was a good omen.

I took gifts and went to visit Steward Wu and Young Master Yan.

Originally, Liu Man'er and Young Master Yan were not familiar with each other at the beginning, and they had to make an appointment if they wanted to see him, but after this period of cooperation and the relationship between going to business together a year ago, Liu Man'er and Young Master Yan can be regarded as acquaintances.

At least this time the porter also knew her, and when they saw her, they would help her report it.

Liu Man'er knew that Young Master Yan was not short of money, and in order to thank him, she gave him an aromatherapy ball, which she made with her own hands, and also embroidered patterns on the outside, which was exquisite.

Anyway, it's just a gadget, it's not very valuable, he wants it, don't throw it away, but what Liu Man'er didn't expect was that Young Master Yan liked this thing quite a lot, and even hung it on his belt.

The things she made by herself were liked by others, and Liu Man'er was very happy to see it, so she praised it from the bottom of her heart: "It's very good-looking, wearing it on Young Master Yan's body, it just sets off Young Master Yan's Zhilan jade tree." ”

"Huh." Young Master Yan chuckled lightly and said, "Shopkeeper Ye can speak." ”

Liu Man'er blinked and asked again, "I wish Young Master Yan a happy New Year." ”

"So are you." Young Master Yan nodded, and said again: "It's better to go to the play, I just invited the troupe again." ”

"Okay." Liu Man'er nodded happily and said, "It just so happens that my mother is also here, she likes to watch the show, but unfortunately she can't find a place, since Young Master Yan has spoken, then I will go and invite my mother over." ”

Liu Man'er said and asked the floating green next to her to invite Fang and the others to watch the play together, and the floating green walked outside happily, her little girl also likes to watch the play, and she can get rid of the main family later.

Young Master Yan saw Liu Man'er making such a self-determination, and he didn't have anything to say, forget it, one person can watch this play, two people will watch it, and everyone will watch it together.

But he just likes to watch a play with her, and her sleeping face is also beautiful when she sits there alone.

However......

After that, Young Master Yan didn't know what kind of mentality he was.
