There is no seal in the saint, and the yamen everywhere below do not dare to seal it, not only do they dare not slack off, but because there are many things to do at the end of the year, they are busier than usual.

In the past few days, Cao Xin has indeed been dizzy by some files, but his current status is a little embarrassing.

There are too many things in this time, Cao Xin doesn't dare to be careless, the more the end of the year, the more frequent the officials who go up and down to inspect, he would rather pinch himself a few times than sit and doze in the yamen.

Xie Rongzhao's small gift was really sent to his heart.

In addition, Xie Rongzhao also prepared a few hand warmers and knee pads.

"This is for the brothers and sisters in the house, and please don't dislike it."

Of course, Xie Xiuwen couldn't really just let his daughter return such a few gifts, or let Fang Hu watch and buy some things, and then send them to the Weixin Hou Mansion and the Cao Mansion respectively.

And Cao Xin brought it the day after receiving the sachet, but he didn't expect it to succeed in allowing him to avoid being blamed by the officials, and even took a few points of value by Dali Siqing, and gave him an excellent result in the assessment at the end of the year.

Dali Siqing of the Dazhi Dynasty is from the third grade, and the grade is one level lower than the six Shangshu, but the Dali Siqing is in the hands of the real power, and often directly obeys the orders of the saint, so no one dares to despise the work in the Dali Temple.

Cao Xin was sorting out the file at the time, and most of the people in the same class were either dozing off, or sleeping soundly on the table, or they simply didn't come to the office.

It's also a coincidence, Dali Siqing originally wanted to be sympathetic to his subordinates, but by chance, he saw this scene and went crazy on the spot.

Cao Xin secretly wiped his sweat, and his hand involuntarily touched the sachet, which was really good luck.

If I hadn't sniffed this thing in front of my nose a quarter of an hour ago, I'm afraid I would have fallen asleep on the table by now.

Although Dali Siqing was angry, he did not punish these people too much, but the assessment at the end of the year will see the difference.

When Cao Xin gave Shangguan a New Year's gift, he learned that he might go up in the coming year, and it was still Dali Siqing's hair, which made him feel even more incredible.

Cao Xin thought about it and felt that he had been stained with the light of this sachet and borrowed Xie Liangbao's good luck.

Besides, after Zhao Yue took the pile of children's things back to the house, he simply called everyone to the main house to talk.

Gao was on the side, with a shallow smile in his eyes.

She knew what her husband cared about, let alone these children, and she was scared when she saw her husband's majestic appearance.

The two have been married for many years, and they have a son-in-law, but the Gao family is still serving carefully, for fear that this one will draw his sword and wield the sword again.

Zhao Yue took out the things, and then asked people to divide them into points.

Several concubines were all good-looking and delicate hand warmers, because they were rewarded by their fathers, they were naturally very happy, but they only dared to be secretly happy, and they didn't dare to move forward.

The two sons-in-law of the Gao family were bold, and they got the wooden sword, not to mention how happy they were, and after jumping three feet high, they rushed to Zhao Yue's side.

"Daddy, can I practice swordsmanship? I've seen you practice swords before, it's so powerful, and I want to be as powerful as Daddy! ”

The second son who said this, who is only five years old this year, is called Zhao Heng.

Zhao Yue saw that this son actually took the initiative to run over to get close to him, not to mention how unexpected, and he didn't know where to put this pair of big hands.

"Brother Heng likes to practice swords? Ha ha! Okay, go back and Daddy will find someone to teach you, but Brother Heng has thought about it, can you really persevere? ”

"Yes, my son is not afraid of hardship, as long as he can be as powerful as Daddy."

Gao looked a little anxious, but also a little relieved.

The Gao family is from a scholarly family, so he naturally hopes that the children will follow the path of civil officials in the future.

The eldest son has a steady and down-to-earth temperament, and now he has opened his mind to study, and in the future, even if he takes the imperial examination, he will definitely be able to make a difference.

But this second son has always given her a headache.

It's good now, with Zhao Yue's approval, I'm afraid it won't stop in the future.

Because of these small gifts, Zhao Yue rarely saw that there were other small expressions on the faces of several children except fear.

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, there were basically no caravans moving around.

As soon as Fang Hu opened the door, he saw a mighty man outside, still holding a letter in his hand, followed by a carriage, and he couldn't see it clearly.

"Who is this strong man?"

"This is the Xie Ju family in Gaoyang County?"

"Exactly."

"We are a caravan from Gaoyang County, and the third son of the Cheng family asked us to send a New Year's gift to Xie Ju's family."

"It turned out to be a fellow countryman, please come in quickly."

Xie Rongzhao slept in a daze, and was woken up by Mama Wang.

"Miss can't sleep anymore, you can sleep for an hour at most at noon, and you will be refreshed if you sleep at night."

Xie Rongzhao nodded in a daze, rubbing his eyes, this Wang Mama had already come over with a hot cloth.

By the time Xie Rongzhao got dressed and got to the front, the people of the caravan had already left.

"Wake up? Come and take a look, this is sent to you by Jingzhou, see if you like it. ”

Xie Rongzhao didn't rush to look at things: "Brother Jingzhou, did you write to me?" ”

Liu Ruolan smiled and covered her mouth with a handkerchief: "Look, husband, I'll just say it, it has to be our good baby who knows San Lang best." ”

Xie Xiuwen also had a smile in his eyes, and handed the letter over: "Look at the words on it, you may recognize all the words." ”

Xie Rongzhao took it, oh, what a thick pile of letters.

Cheng Jingzhou's letter wrote a lot of things, including his recent homework progress, as well as Cheng Yuanyuan's punishment and Mrs. Cheng's always loving to talk about the little girl.

The more Xie Rongzhao looked, the more he wanted to go back to his hometown.

"Daddy, he received the things we sent to Gaoyang County earlier, and said that Uncle Niang likes it very much."

Xie Xiuwen nodded, and Cheng Jingzhou also wrote it in the letter to him.

Cheng Jingzhou sent a lot of New Year's gifts, most of which were more convenient to bring.

There were some bacon, fabrics, and some small items specially bought for Xie Rongzhao.

"These things are all for you, let Brother Azhou help send them over in a while, and you can go back to the house and take a look."

"Thank you, Daddy, thank you, Brother Azhou."

At the end of the year, because of the New Year's ceremony of walking around, Xie Xiuwen didn't have much time to calm down and study, so he simply let a few children mess around for a few days.

Anyway, it's the New Year, and I'm not a child anymore if I've been nervous.

"Daddy, I want to eat fried rice cakes."

Xie Xiuwen frowned: "Your aunt and they are busy, I'm afraid they can't take care of it." ”

Xie Rongzhao pouted, and before he could say anything, Xie Zhou hurriedly coaxed: "Don't cry, I'll do it for you in a while." ”

Xie Ronglang hurriedly stretched out his hand and shouted, "I'll help light the fire." ”

Xie Xiuwen: ...... So I'm just a bad daddy?
