"Knock Knock"

Lin Xi's door was knocked, and it was Qin Yan who opened the door.

Looking at the stranger in front of her, Qin Yan asked suspiciously, "Girl, are you?" ”

"I'm here to find ...... Lady Jerod's. ”

"Oh, there are two Yelu ladies in the master's house, are you here to find the eldest lady or the second lady?"

"I ...... Look for both. ”

"Then you wait here, I'll go find the two ladies."

Ling Yebai nodded obediently and stayed at the door.

The first to come out was Guanyin, she seemed to know that Ling Yebai would come, and she was not surprised at all.

"You're here?"

"Sister Guanyin......"

"You don't need to call my name, just call me sister."

Guanyin's attitude was also somewhat unexpected.

"Sister, you...... Know I'm coming? ”

"Not only does she know, but she has guessed what you are going to say." Yanshou walked over slowly while munching on melon seeds, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the cloth bag around her waist and handed them to Guanyin: "Do you want to?" Guanyin glanced at her but didn't answer, Yanshou snorted arrogantly, "Hmph, do you want to love, you don't want anyone to want it--na, do you want to eat?" Ling Yebai was stunned, and the extension of life was handed to him.

Ling Yebai reached out and took the melon seeds a little timidly, "Thank you, second sister......"

"I've grown so big, I'm finally going to be my sister again." Yanshou rubbed Guanyin and smiled proudly.

Guanyin saw that Ling Yebai was embarrassed to speak, so he came up with such a method, which was an indirect agreement to Ling Yebai.

Ling Yebai was also smart enough, and when he saw the intentions of the two, he naturally thanked them a little in his heart.

"Yebai, what about Lin Xi?"

"He didn't say it, he should have gone to the inn."

"Hmph, I still want to hide from the cheap by myself."

"Yebai, the second sister has given you a task to catch him back for me!"

"Oh...... Good! ”

"Hehe, don't be so nervous, just tell him, if you don't come back, the two of us will personally go to the inn and bring him back."

After only a short while, Lin Xi ran back in a gloomy manner.

"If you don't go home every day, this house is almost out of you, right, Brother Lin?"

"Hey...... How dare I say Guanyin, I'm going out for a walk......"

"Let a little girl in Ling Yebai come back to deal with the two of us, and you go out to hide by yourself?"

"Ahem, not next time!"

"Okay, the meal is ready, let's eat it quickly."

While eating, Liu Feng suddenly came to visit the house.

"Liu Feng? Is there no official business today, so come and see my brother? ”

"It's not just about you, big brother, there's another big thing."

Seeing Liu Feng's pretended to be mysterious, Lin Xi became interested: "Oh? What's the big deal? ”

"Big brother, do you remember when the day is coming?"

"What day? I want to think about ......"

"You have forgotten such a big day, there are still seven days to go before the New Year!"

"Harm! Don't you say that I really don't remember it, these days I patronize and kill and forget about it! Looks like I'm going to do some groceries in the afternoon. ”

"Hey--brother, I'm here, naturally I came with all my things! All come in! ”

I saw two large boxes carried in by several officials outside the door, which contained a lot of things, not only red lanterns, red paper, incense candles, snacks, imperial calendars, and everything that should be prepared in the box. The other box is full of New Year's grain, rice and flour dry food, venison, roe deer legs, pheasants, pigs, sheep and beef, complete styles.

The girls also heard the voice and walked out, looking at the two large boxes, and only then did they remember that it was almost the New Year.

"This, so many things, Liu Feng, it cost you a lot of money."

"Hey, this is the county order that I heard that you eradicated the Tianxia Alliance, and specially sent it to you."

"Okay, thank him for me."

"He also said, let me ask you if you have any plans to go to the county government to do things."

Lin Xi laughed and said, "Haha... Forget it, I'm tired, but I don't want to work for the imperial court anymore. ”

"Well, it's good to live like this. I've also sent the things, I'll go back first, and if I come to eat a few years ago, I hope the eldest brother will accept it! ”

"That's natural, it's a matter of having one more pair of chopsticks."

"Okay, big brother, brother will take his leave first--withdraw!"

Lin Xi called Zhang Ping, and cleaned the general's mansion inside and out, and a few girls went to study the cooking, and after cleaning up, it was already night, and Lin Xi began to hang lanterns on the house.

Longevity and Guanyin helped Lin Xi hang lanterns again, Guanyin was easy, but it was very difficult to extend life.

"Hey, hey...... Ah! "Yanshou suddenly slipped off the pillars and almost fell to the ground.

Lin Xi didn't know when he jumped down and caught Yanshou, Yanshou "Ahhhh It bumped into Lin Xi.

"Hey...... It hurts......"

"I usually haven't seen it, you are so short for longevity."

"You're so annoying! My headbutt hurts so much, and you're still laughing at me here! Woohoo......"

"Okay, don't cry, don't cry, let's not do this."

"Then I'm going to cook......"

"Go ahead, stop crying and smile."

Lin Xi stepped on the pillar, hung the lantern without much effort, and shook his head helplessly.

On the thirtieth day of the lunar month, everything was almost ready, the girls were preparing to make noodles in the house, and Lin Xi was cleaning up a side room by himself - there was his teacher's tablet in it.

Lin Xi carefully picked up the teacher's tablet and wiped it carefully, solemnly and solemnly, not daring to be the slightest contempt.

"Teacher, it's almost the New Year, and the students will give you New Year's greetings. I hope you've had everything over there...... All is well. Now that the two countries are at peace, it does come at a cost, but ...... The people will no longer be displaced, and the Lebanese people can live and work in peace and contentment, I think...... You'd love to see that, too. ”

"Brother Lin!" When he came back to his senses, Lin Xi heard someone shouting at him outside.

"Come in." The door was pushed open, and it was Midnight White.

Lin Xi stabilized his expression, "Yebai, is there something wrong?" ”

"Someone is looking for you outside the door, saying they want to see you."

"Is it Liu Feng?"

"No, I don't know either, it's an older woman."

"Oh...... I'll take a look. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Xi suddenly thought of Cao Ran, who had been so busy lately that he forgot to visit this sister.

"Sister Cao Ran! It's really you! I forgot to invite my sister to celebrate the New Year, I really should fight, I apologized to my sister! After speaking, Lin Xi was about to kneel, but Cao Ran hurriedly helped him up.

"Okay, my sister came here without the consent of your master, don't kick me out."

"My sister laughed, how dare I, come in!" Although Cao Ran is still thin, his complexion is much better.

"Xiaolin, who are you with this girl? I don't know it yet. ”

Before Lin Xi could say anything, Ling Yebai hurriedly said, "Hello sister, I am Lin Xi's third lady, and my name is Ling Yebai." ”

"Kobayashi...... It's only been a long time since I've seen you, so why do you have an extra lady. ”

"Uh, this ...... Hehe......" Lin Xi couldn't explain it, so he wanted to pretend to be stupid and mix up this problem.

"Hey, you...... I don't care about that, but I can't make mistakes. ”

"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely not let them down! My sister is resting in the main hall for a while, and Yanshou is cooking, and it will be fine soon. ”

Cao Ran nodded, and followed the subordinates into the main hall.

Liu Feng was late until the afternoon.

"Why did you kid come? You didn't even make it to lunch, you're really grinding. ”

"I'm sorry, big brother, the county order has to pull us to eat together at noon, so it's hard for me to refuse, right? I had a meal with the county order, no, I came after I was done. ”

"Alright, don't talk nonsense, let's get inside! No matter how late it is, you kid won't be able to make it to dinner. ”

Liu Feng walked in, and the girl hiding behind him was still standing in place obediently, it was Zhou Baiyu.

This lively and active girl changed her previous style and became a little strange, "Miss Zhou? What happened to you? ”

"I ...... Can I go in? She said a strange thing, this should not be asked by a girl with a character like Zhou Baiyu.

"Of course, why are you so strange today?"

"Oh. I'm fine......"

"Alright, let's come in."

In the evening, everyone gathers at a table, which is especially lively until late at night.

"Sister, you want to go back?"

"Yes, there is no one at home on Chinese New Year's Eve, and I am a little worried."

Lin Xi stopped Cao Ran and discussed: "Otherwise, I will ask Liu Feng to call a few officials to come and escort you back, and I won't worry about my sister going back alone." ”

"Don't worry, I'm still safe, I'm safe."

"Sister, but after all, it's late at night, I'm afraid ......"

"Okay, I won't bother you, I'll just go back myself." refused Lin Xi, and Cao Ran left by himself.

"Big brother, are you worried that your sister is in danger?"

"I wish I was worried, but it's the middle of the night...... Liu Feng, why don't you find a few officials to escort you secretly? ”

"Okay, big brother, I'll go myself."

Lin Xi glanced at Zhou Baiyu at the door, and the cold wind blew her hair at the corners of the winter night, reflecting her dull eyes and slightly melancholy face.

"Hey, Liu Feng, why is she like that?"

"I don't know what's going on, she seems to have been absent-minded lately."

"I've seen her a lot when I've been out lately, and I've never seen her like this, have I? Why don't you ask? ”

Liu Feng smiled awkwardly and said: "I am her boss, not her man, what is in her own heart, I ask what to do." ”

Liu Feng suddenly said meaningfully: "Big brother, I see... Why don't you ask? ”

Lin Xi slapped Liu Feng hard, "You kid... you, get down to business! Hurry up! ”

Looking at the three sisters who were laughing in the house, and then at Zhou Baiyu who was sitting alone outside the house, Lin Xi still decided to take a look at her.

"Hey!" Lin Xi waved his hand in front of Zhou Baiyu, making Zhou Baiyu come back to his senses, "Huh? It's Brother Lin......"

"Girl, why are you sitting here alone in a daze?"

"Brother Lin, can I ask you a question?"

"Yes, just ask."

"What do you like about the three sisters-in-law?"

"Hmm...... It's hard to say, I didn't think about it that much when I met them, and I don't need any reason to love them when I share their hardships. ”

"Do you like gentle and obedient girls?"

"Who doesn't like gentle and obedient girls? You ......" Lin Xi seemed to realize something, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Baiyu.

"You say...... What did you say? Zhou Baiyu lowered his head, and his somewhat shy appearance suddenly made Lin Xi realize something.

"Brother Lin, I'm ......"

"Girl--I know what you're going to say, keep it in your heart."

"That's ...... Refusal? ”

"Girl, I can only tell you that I don't like them because of my personality, and besides, you are a very interesting girl, don't imitate other people's personalities, it's good to be yourself."

"Well, I remember, Brother Lin."

At this time, Liu Feng came back and said, "Big brother, your sister has returned home safely, and I saw her enter the mansion with my own eyes." ”

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"Then big brother, I'm going back too, and the county government also needs to be watched."

"Go ahead."

Then Lin Xi turned to Zhou Baiyu, who was thinking about something with his head down, and said, "Girl, do you want to leave too?" If you want to go, I can give you a walk. ”

"Really? Let's go! ”
