Xie Yan said thank you lately, and walked in with the food box.

There was a man standing behind the bookcase, who was lifting a pen and splashing ink, and when he saw Xie Yanwan, he put down the wolf in his hand and said leisurely: "It's late." ”

"Seeing that my father was busy in the study for a day, my daughter made some snacks, but I don't know if it suits my father's taste."

Xie Yanwan put down the food box, put the inner dim sum on the table, and looked at the words he wrote, and immediately admired: "Father's font is really vigorous and powerful, and the pen is like a god." ”

Hearing this, Xie Xiaoyao smiled slightly, put the wolf in its place, and then said, "You also know calligraphy?" ”

Xie Yanwan said coquettishly: "As a father's daughter, how can you cowardly? ”

She looks so playful and cute that even Xie Xiaoyao couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "After all, you are reasonable, and you can't refute it for your father." ”

Xie Yan poured tea and served it, biting his lip, as if he had been entangled for a long time, and then said: "Father, in fact, my daughter came to ask for sin." ”

Hearing this, Xie Xiaoyao didn't reply, just took a sip of tea with a teacup and looked at her quietly.

Seeing this, the confusion in Xie Yanwan's eyes became thicker and thicker.

After a long time, Xie Xiaoyao put down the teacup, looked at Xie Yanwan and said, "You beat Linlang's maid today?" ”

Xie Yanwan suddenly raised his head, wanting to say something, but he endured it back, and Chu Chu said pitifully: "Father, my daughter knows that she is wrong." ”

"Wrong? As a father, I see that you are still a little unconvinced, let's talk about it, what is going on. ”

Seeing that Xie Xiaoyao didn't seem to be angry, Xie Yanwan said softly: "It's really that girl who has no rules, and I can't fight when I'm angry." It's just a daughter's impulse, but it makes it difficult for the father to do it, and I really feel ashamed."

"You're right." Xie Xiaoyao's hand knocked on the table, making a slight noise. After a while, he said: "A subordinate, you will be beaten, you are the master, what can't be beaten." Your mistake is that you are too heavy. When you say it, you have to remember that you must leave a line in everything. ”

Xie Yanwan nodded in response, and said gratefully: "My daughter knows, thank you for her father's teachings." ”

Seeing her so well-behaved, Xie Xiaoyao felt even more satisfied, pinched a piece of dim sum, changed the topic and smiled: "You made this dim sum yourself?" The taste is good, sweet but not greasy. ”

"If the father likes it, the daughter will make it for you every day in the future."

When she laughed, her face was innocent, and Rao is Xie Xiaoyao was also in a trance, and suddenly remembered Xue Sujinlai.

Back then, she also said that if the master likes the food cooked by the concubine, the concubine will cook it for you every day.

What did he say at the time?

"You are a housewife, you should let your subordinates do these things, don't tire yourself."

At that time, how Xue Sujin replied to him, Xie Xiaoyao had forgotten, but remembered that the light smile when she lowered her head was like the most delicate flower in Sanchun.

Seeing that Xie Xiaoyao didn't speak, Xie Yanwan bowed his head obediently and didn't say anything, just stood quietly aside.

After a long time, I saw Xie Xiaoyao come back to his senses and said with a smile: "For my father to know your intentions, go back and rest, don't be tired." ”

"Yes."

Xie Yanwan didn't say much, he saluted obediently, and then turned around and walked out.

It wasn't until after she left that Xie Xiaoyao called Xie Lin in, holding a half-bitten snack in his hand, and asked, "What do you think of the eldest lady?" ”

Hearing this, Xie Lin subconsciously raised his eyes to look at him, and saw that Xie Xiaoyao's appearance was a little dazed, so he immediately lowered his head and replied: "The eldest lady is a good boy, and now she is willing to come hard, and she has the love of the master, I am afraid that there will be greater blessings in the future." ”

Xie Xiaoyao didn't seem to hear it, but just said in a low voice: "Her appearance is very similar to Su Jin." ”

That was the taboo of the Xie family, even if it was Xie Lin, he didn't dare to accept this sentence.

The next moment, I saw Xie Xiaoyao raise his head and said, "You are right, this girl is blessed." These days, you have sent someone to keep an eye on your wife, so as not to give her a chance to go out of the house to spread the word, no matter who it is, you can't ruin this blessing. At least, when she was in the Xie family, she couldn't have an accident. ”

A Xie Yanwan is worth how much he promised in front of the prince, which is not only Xie Yanwan's blessing, but also the Xie family.

For several days, the weather was exceptionally fine, but on Chinese New Year's Eve, it snowed again.

The air was filled with the smell of gunsmoke, and the red firecracker crumbs fell all over the ground, adding a bit of artistic conception to the snow.

After the afternoon, Xie Yanwan held up an oil-paper umbrella, ignoring the heavy snow, and walked towards the outside of the house with a food box. She promised Qiaosui to accompany her to eat dumplings.

Seeing Xie Yan coming late, a smile suddenly appeared in Qiao Sui's eyebrows. She looked around at no one, closed the door busily, and welcomed Xie Yanwan in.

There was a charcoal fire burning in the room, and the smoke in the basin was a little smoky, but this did not prevent the warmth of the cottage.

Qiao Sui excitedly lifted the plate holding the dishes on the table, and brought out the chickens, ducks and dumplings in the food box, and said with a smile: "The slave and maid are counting the time, you are coming soon, and the food is still hot." Miss, you taste. ”

There are four dishes and one soup on the table, plus a large plate of dumplings, and there are chili peppers and vinegar in the small plate next to it.

A mouthful of dumplings and a sip of wine, Xie Yanwan sat opposite Qiao Sui and the two, eating very happily.

It's just that after three rounds of drinking, Qiaosui's eyebrows and eyes added a little loneliness, looking at the messy appearance of this cup, his nose was sour, and he said softly: "If my mother is here, I will definitely pull my ears and don't allow me to mess with you." Miss, I miss my mother. ”

The last few words, she said very lightly, but she didn't fall into Xie Yanwan's ears word for word.

She didn't say a word, she raised her head and drank the glass of wine, and suddenly felt the hot breath slip from her throat to all her limbs, and her tears fell.

Xie Yanwan got up and took the cloak, put it on Qiaosui, gritted his teeth and said, "Qiaosui, I'll take you to see the nurse." It's Chinese New Year's Eve today, how can I do without her? ”

Hearing this, Qiao Sui was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Miss, I can't help it, it's still snowing outside, you can go back early after dinner." ”

"Let's go."

Xie Yanwan filled the food box with a pot of wine, took the incense ingot, took Qiao Sui's hand, and walked out in the face of the heavy snow.

The wind and snow howled on the mountain, and there were no people along the way.

Xie Yanwan knelt on the ground, lit the incense, and kowtowed respectfully with Qiaosui.

Qiao Sui couldn't help but whimper, holding the stele and crying and calling her mother, while Xie Yanwan knelt silently to the side, but her eyes were red.

All families in the world are reunion days, only the two of them, and there are no relatives anymore.

"Nurse, don't worry, I will protect Qiaosui, even if I let myself go, I will also protect her." Xie Yanwan wiped a handful of tears and added a stack of ingots and paper money.

The wind and snow were getting heavier, and before they could finish burning, Xie Yanwan stood up and took off his cloak, supporting a small piece of clean space for the burning flames.

It wasn't until it was getting late that Xie Yanwan helped Qiaosui to walk down the mountain.

She was so cold that she couldn't feel it, but that heart, still beating fast, reminded her of all the evils that happened in this world.

After sending Qiaosui back, Xie Yanwan looked in the direction of Xie Mansion and walked back step by step.

Not surprisingly, there was a jubilant mood in the house.

Red lanterns hung in all corners of the courtyard, and in the white between heaven and earth, there were dots of red light, bright and flamboyant.

And the courtyard of the main house is even more lively.

Xie Xiaoyao sat at the head, next to Xiao Nian and Xie Linlang, who were smiling and smiling.

The three of them are a self-contained family.

Scold.

Xie Yanwan took a deep breath, and just as he raised his steps to leave, he saw Xie Lin walking out with a little nervousness.

"Miss."

Xie Lin's voice was extremely low, Xie Yanwan nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Uncle Lin." ”

Xie Lin smiled, pulled Xie Yanwan aside, and whispered: "Miss, the master asked the old slave to tell you to shoot the flood and wronged you." ”

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Xie Yanwan already understood.

She sneered in her heart, Xie Xiaoyao was afraid that she would go in and ruin the harmonious atmosphere in the room. After all, in the second year of junior high school, he wanted to take his daughter-in-law and daughter back to his parents' house, so naturally he wanted to please Xiao Nian, so that he could pass the test with his mother-in-law.

The eldest princess is a ruthless character who is not easy to mess with.

Xie Yanwan was sarcastic in his heart, but his face was indifferent, he only shook his head and smiled: "It's okay, Uncle Lin told Daddy that Late Son is not wronged." Speaking of this, she took out another red envelope and said with a smile: "It's freezing this day, Uncle Lin will buy wine and eat, I see that my father has nothing to do here, you can go to the house to warm up later, don't freeze." ”

Xie Lin hurriedly refused, and when he saw that he couldn't refuse, he smiled and said, "Then thank you for your concern." Just when he touched her hand, he was surprised: "Miss, why are your hands so cold?" ”

"It's okay, it's cold today, I'll go back first."

Seeing that he accepted the red envelope, Xie Yanwan didn't explain much, smiled slightly, turned around and went back to his yard.

Her figure quickly disappeared into the wind and snow, and the small figure looked extremely lonely.

Xie Lin glanced at her, then at the happy scene in the room, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

This eldest lady is indeed too pitiful.

However, Xie Lin didn't see that the moment Xie Yanwan turned around, his eyebrows and eyes instantly cooled.

It's okay, their family can go for the holidays, after all, this may be the last festival they will spend together in this life!

Let's be happy.

According to the rules, Chinese New Year's Eve is to keep the New Year, but Xie Yanwan on the side of the main room was too lazy to go over to ask for disgust, so he stayed in the cold courtyard by himself.

Miaoshu Miaohua and the two girls accompanied her, Miaoshu took care of Miaohua's presence, and didn't talk much, just thoughtfully added charcoal.

And the wonderful painting is a peek at Xie Yanwan with disdain. will be majestic in front of these subordinates, why don't you have the ability to be in front of the eldest lady?
