After another snowfall, the Chinese New Year's Eve was ushered in.

Although everything for the New Year has been prepared, the Bai family is still busy early in the morning.

Chinese New Year, how can anyone not be nervous, busy and happy, not to mention that this is the first year that the Bai family has spent in the capital.

Mrs. Bai got up early and stood under the porch, staring at the little maid sweeping the snow.

She always felt that she still had a few more strengths and wanted to do it herself.

But after all, she was old, afraid of slipping and falling, and the maids beside Zhen and Xie Chuntao stared at her and didn't allow her to take a broom.

"Grandma!"

Xiao Fuyuan has been getting up very early these days.

Since the family opened a girls' school, she has studied hard with Su Yu every day, and she is reluctant to stay at home during the holidays, so she gets up early every morning to go to the street.

Since she is a group pet, she doesn't have to worry about being accompanied.

Several brothers and nephews took turns to accompany her to the street, but it was Daddy Baiplank who accompanied her the most.

Of course, this is the hegemony that the white plank has taken back from his son and grandson as a father.

In the past few days, she has seen the lanterns, gone to the plum garden in the suburbs to enjoy the plums, listened to the storyteller, and ate all kinds of delicacies.

The day before yesterday, Ah Zhen, who was the crown prince, slipped out of the palace and went with her to enjoy the lanterns, and she had a good time.

"Granddaughter, it's the Chinese New Year's Eve today, and you're still going out?" Old Lady Bai straightened Xiao Fuyuan's big fur collar and asked.

"Don't go out, spend the New Year at home." Xiao Fuyuan said sweetly.

"That's it, let's spend it at home today, and then we'll go out to the temple fair after tomorrow." Old Lady Bai said.

Today is the Bai family's New Year's reunion dinner together, tomorrow the first day of the new year to go to the palace to participate in the palace banquet, after tomorrow Xiaofuyuan will be free.

You can juggle freely, visit temple fairs, go to various houses to eat, drink, watch plays, and listen to gossip.

"Grandma will go to the temple fair with me then." Xiao Fuyuan said.

"That's for sure." Old Lady Bai said.

In the past, when I was in Shenshu Village, the Bai family would go to Nanguan Town or Yangfeng County to catch the temple fair in the first month of every year.

I heard that the temple fairs in the capital are more lively and prosperous, and Mrs. Bai is also a person who likes to join in the fun, so she will definitely go with her granddaughter.

Not only did she go, but the entire Bai family, except for the pregnant princess and the fourth child of the Bai family who accompanied the princess, everyone was willing to go to the temple fair in the capital.

When the grandfather and grandson were standing under the porch and talking, someone came to the palace.

It was the crown prince Ah Zhen who sent someone to send her lanterns.

Soon, lanterns of various shapes were piled up in the courtyard of the Bai family, attracting everyone to come out to see.

"It's worthy of the lamp in the palace, it's too delicate." Mrs. Bai praised it.

Xiao Fuyuan commanded the little servant to hang the lantern on the tree under the porch, and the lantern was blown by the wind, reflecting the snow, not to mention how beautiful. She is already impatient until night, when all the lights are lit, it will be more beautiful.

「…… The county lord, my wife has something to say when you let you into the house." Honghua shouted from the upper room to the bottom of the porch.

Xiao Fuyuan admired the lamp for a while, talked to the palace people sent by Ah Zhen, and then entered the upper room with Mrs. Bai.

"It's not cold."

Zhen pulled Xiao Fuyuan into his arms, touched her hands and cheeks, and found that he was relieved of his heart.

"Mother, are you looking for me?" Xiao Fuyuan asked.

"Your mother has a letter."

Zhen handed Cheng Mei's letter to Xiao Fuyuan.

Xiao Fuyuan opened it and read it.

"My mother said that she was in Shuzhong, and she couldn't return to Beijing until after fifteen."

After reading the letter, Xiao Fuyuan told Zhen and Mrs. Bai the news.

Since Mrs. Ru was caught, Cheng Mei went to Shuzhong, saying that it was to take care of Shuzhong's business.

But the specific Zhen is not clear.

Maybe it has something to do with Shen Junshan, after all, Shen Junshan died in the Shuzhong River at the beginning, and there are no bones to see so far, Cheng Mei is naturally unwilling.

"Girl, you can say a few auspicious words to your mother." Zhen said to Xiao Fuyuan.

Xiao Fuyuan folded the letter and said solemnly, "I hope my mother will go well."

"Your mother will definitely receive it." Old Lady Bai said, "It will definitely go well."

At first, Mrs. Bai was a little apprehensive about the connection between Cheng Mei and Xiao Fuyuan, but after so many things, she didn't have any dissatisfaction at all.

Because Cheng Mei had no intention of taking Xiao Fuyuan away at all, but let Xiao Fuyuan be the daughter of the Bai Shen family.

Old Lady Bai was full of gratitude.

Anyway, it's not a bad thing to have one more person who loves your granddaughter.

"Our stage is ready."

Tian Maimiao walked in with a smile and reported the latest progress of the Chinese New Year at home.

It is popular for large families in the capital to invite the opera troupe to sing for a few days in the first month of the New Year, and the Bai family also follows the customs when they arrive in the capital.

The matter of inviting the drama team fell to the third room, and Tian Maimiao threw money to invite the hottest drama team in the capital, and the theater stage has been set up for three days, and finally built on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

There is no one in the Bai family who doesn't like to listen to operas, in previous years, they listened to it in the village, and they listened to what people sang.

Now that I have invited a troupe, I can listen to whatever I want.

Mrs. Bai, who has always been distressed about money, was also generous for a while, saying that it was in her mood to invite the troupe at home.

She asked everyone to point out their favorite plays early and asked Xiao Fuyuan to write them on the play list.

When the gong and drum are opened, they will perform according to the play list, so that the whole family can have a good time in the play.

Xiao Fuyuan doesn't like to listen to babbling plays, in the past, listening to plays in Shenshu Village was purely for fun, and what she liked was the snacks and candy people sold under the stage.

She doesn't have these in her own drama team, and she regrets it.

"Sister, I also invited you to play a shadow puppet show." Tian Maimiao understood Xiao Fuyuan's thoughts very well.

"That's great."

As soon as Xiao Fuyuan heard that there was a shadow puppet show, he smiled happily.

Not only does Xiao Fuyuan like shadow puppetry, but his nephews, including Da Lang, like shadow puppetry far more than singing.

"Grandma, mother, the kitchen is also arranged." Chief Manager Xie Chuntao walked in and said.

"You can also take a break, and let Da Zhuang arrange the things of the new year." Zhen said to the eldest daughter-in-law.

Since Bai Dazhuang took a break, he took the initiative to take care of the trivial matters at home, but Xie Chuntao was not at ease, and he still personally prepared for the New Year every day.

"Erzhuang's couplets and blessing characters have been written."

The second sister-in-law, You Jingui, walked in, and the Spring Festival couplets at home have always been written by Bai Erzhuang, even if the fourth child of the Bai family becomes the champion, the Bai family will always maintain this habit.

Zhen and Old Lady Bai nodded.

"Your grandmother's family and Cuicui's mother haven't arrived yet?" Old Lady Bai asked.

"The fourth brother and the fourth brother and sister have already gone to pick it up, and it is estimated that it will be soon." Xie Chuntao said.

Thinking that the Du family was also the first time to come to the capital, Cuicui's mother must have missed her daughter in the Liu family alone, so the Bai family said hello early and asked the Du family and Cuicui's mother Liu to come to the Bai family for the New Year.

This year is destined to be a lively one.

"Second daughter-in-law, your sister-in-law is alone, please invite her too." Zhen said.

When everyone was busy, they forgot about You Qingya.

Eugene Gui said something that shouldn't be said because the princess was pregnant a few days ago, and in the past few days, she has been scolded by the old lady Bai with her tail between her legs, and she didn't dare to mention it if she wanted her sister to come to the house for the New Year.

"Mother, I've already asked someone to invite me." Xiao Fuyuan said.

Eugene Gui threw a grateful glance at the sister-in-law.

Zhen and Old Lady Bai showed a relieved smile on their faces, how old Xiao Fuyuan is, he can already act thoughtfully.
