Chapter 58: Return the Gift
As soon as these words came out, what did the little soldier not understand, the family he just asked for directions was the destination this time, after all, what the general said, the object of the gift was a little girl who had just turned four years old. And it's a very beautiful, well-behaved and cute kind, and then look at the little girl who is held in the arms of Lord Wushan, who else is there?
So the little soldier obediently followed Wushan and his party down the mountain, and when he saw the surprised eyes of his companions, the little soldier couldn't help but want to cover his face. The two of them were like fools just now, and they couldn't recognize them even though they were in front of them.
At this time, I heard a crisp and immature voice.
"Big brother, it turns out that you came to me. Do you have anything to do with me? ”
The little soldier's originally somewhat decadent mood was suddenly cured by this immature childish words. Probably to the child, the adult's tone will also be softened, and he will try to speak as gently as possible.
"Your name is Ning Ning? I'm here to send you a congratulatory gift for the general of our family. ”
"Did the general really send me a congratulatory gift? I thought he was joking with me. ”
Ning Ning clapped her hands happily, and then looked behind the little soldier, but there was white snow behind him, and there was nothing else. The creep couldn't help but laugh.
"The congratulatory gift is in the car."
Then he asked Wushan for instructions and wanted to unload the congratulatory gifts from the car. Wushan didn't disagree. Nodding, the two young and strong soldiers drove the carriage directly into the compound under the guidance of You Sifang, unloading the things on the cart like ants moving.
Hearing the sound, the visiting family was almost stunned by the gifts from the courtyard. They had heard Ning Ning talk about General Xie, but they were too far away, and they thought it was just a polite conversation between adults, but they didn't expect that in this cold winter, General Xie really sent someone to give gifts to their little Ning Ning. How can they not feel honored by this?
"This, how does this work?"
The two little soldiers were only acting on orders, and when they heard Old Man You say this, they just smiled slightly, and then sped up the movements in their hands, and after unloading all the food, cloth and exquisite gifts in the car, the two of them were about to leave.
How could the You family let these two leave so hungry and cold? immediately wanted to ask the two to stay and celebrate the New Year with them, but they were embarrassedly rejected by the two little soldiers.
"Elders, don't blame you. This errand was snatched by the two brothers from the hands of other companions, just because our home is in Lin'an County, and after the congratulatory gifts are delivered, we can also go home for the New Year, so I won't bother you here. ”
I see. Young people want to go back to their homes for the New Year, and they have no reason to stop it. Even so, the You family still brought each of them a bowl of hot broth, and stuffed several white flour cakes with meat. Just when the two little soldiers wanted to leave, Ning Ning dragged Wushan's robe and feet, and whispered a few times when he lowered down. Immediately, the eyes of the four sides of the swim lit up, and he strode to a room next to him, and came out with a big basket in less than a moment. The basket was covered with a coarse cloth, and although they had not yet seen what was inside, the two creeps smelled a fresh scent.
The two of them looked at each other, both a little surprised, why did this taste so much like a green vegetable that had just broken its stem and flowed out of tender juice? But at this time, when the weather is cold, where are the greens?
"This is a little girl who has nothing to do, although it is not worth a few dollars, but it is a novelty. Two little brothers, please help me bring it to the general and thank him for congratulating my youngest daughter on her birthday. ”
These few words of Si Siwenwen were thought of by You Sifang racking his brains, and after he finished speaking, not only did he breathe a sigh of relief, but the surrounding You family members couldn't help but relax. Since those two little soldiers were General Xie's personal soldiers, they naturally knew what to say and what not to say. He carefully took the huge basket, and without even looking at the contents of it, he put it in the carriage, and after fixing it, he came out and saluted the traveling family, and then turned around and left in the carriage.
Only then did the You family relax their minds.
Thanks to the blessing of catching so much game in the field before, the You family can be regarded as having a good year. It's just that before eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, everyone looked at the congratulatory gifts in the half yard and couldn't help but be stunned. In the end, Ning Ning raised his little hand.
"Me! Me, me! I want to take it apart and see what's inside. ”
The family had no reason to refuse, so in this rare free time, everyone smiled and picked up the gifts in the yard.
It was the first time that Niu Niu had officially given him a congratulatory gift, and at this time, the little hands were tinkering quickly, opening a rectangular box. The outside of this box is still wrapped in a layer of broken blue cloth, Grandma You looked at the cloth wrapped on the surface of these boxes, and her mouth was still chattering, thinking that these could make a few clothes.
After opening it, Ning Ning suddenly let out a burst of cheers.
"This is a pastry from 'Harmony House'! I've seen it in the county before, and people who go there every day to buy it still have to queue up, and they can't buy it if they go late! ”
There is no need for Ning Ning to describe how delicious these pastries are. The unique sweet smell of the pastry has been emanated, and the You family who smelled this smell couldn't help but nod. It's no wonder that people in the city have to line up to buy pastries, which smell sweet.
This general is really careful, knowing that children like to eat something sweet and delicious. This gift is really in line with the hearts of several children.
Here, Ning Ning had already taken out the pastries inside and divided half of them for everyone. There is no way, because there are too many Youjia. The adults didn't want to eat it, but the children resolutely didn't want to give them more of the part, and in the end they had no choice but to stuff it in their mouths and taste the taste of the pastry.
"It's really delicious, and it's easy to bite, it's worthy of a pastry made by a big shop. After the New Year, we went out in the spring to make money and buy a few more boxes for the big guys. ”
You Quartet's words were recognized by everyone. At certain specific times, something delicious can also be the way forward.
Next, everyone also unpacked some cloth with obvious colors suitable for the little girl, some delicate and lovely jewelry, etc., and finally a simple little box. It's just that this small box is obviously not for Ning Ning, and everyone turned their attention to Wushan.
Everyone knows that Wu Shan followed General Xie to Lu'an City this time and made a great contribution, and this obviously heavy small box should be for Wu An.
Wu An's expression moved slightly, and he stepped forward to pick up the heavy small box with one hand, and when he opened it, there were rows of silver ingots inside.
