Chapter 52: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner

Liu Yuhua found Jiang Tingcheng and Aunt Wan in the bazaar. Jiang Tingcheng said to Jiang Jianing: "Brother Jianing, do you want to eat some baked cakes and sugar gourds?" ”

Jiang Jianing said: "I want to eat. ”

So Jiang Tingcheng took out an empty paper bag, divided some snacks into the bag, and handed it to Jiang Jianing.

When they got home, it was almost time for dinner.

Jiang Tingcheng then remembered that today is Jiang Jianing's second birthday, and today is the Spring Festival, and next year will be the Year of the Rabbit.

The servants hung red lanterns and pasted couplets in their homes early in the morning.

Jiang Tingcheng found that there were three more large tables in the backyard, and it seemed that there were also relatives and friends who wanted to come over today to celebrate the Spring Festival and Jiang Jianing's birthday.

It's just that Ning Xihan is still hiding in his north room, and he doesn't know what he's doing, Jiang Tingcheng became angry when he thought about it. Today, Ning Xihan didn't know what was wrong, he didn't care about himself, and he still looked indifferent. Isn't it that Ning Xihan is diligent in his studies and arts, and he feels that there is a big age gap with him, so he has nothing to say?

Jiang Qingcheng was angry, and deliberately did not go to Beiwu to find Ning Xihan.

In this way, the two were at a stalemate until the meal. The servant went to the north house and called Ning Xihan to come out to eat. Ning Xihan came out of the north room at this time.

Jiang Chengcheng saw Ning Xihan walking towards the dining room in the backyard, and suddenly saw that Ning Xihan had changed into a new dress, which was the dark green robe that she bought with her at the market last time. Not to mention, Ning Xihan is tall, handsome, and dressed like a hanger, he is indeed quite stylish.

Jiang Qingcheng snorted and turned his head away from Ning Xihan.

Ning Xihan saw Jiang Tingcheng turn his head and didn't look at him, knowing that he must have snubbed Jiang Tingcheng just now, which made her angry.

So Ning Xihan thought to himself: "Anyway, I will lurk in the Jiang Mansion for many more years, until I come out on top in high school and confuse the saint by the side of the saint." I'm going to stay in the Jiang family for many years, and now I'm going to offend this little girl, I'm not happy. ”

So Ning Xihan showed a faint smile, and he walked to Jiang Tingcheng and sat down.

Looking at Jiang Tingcheng's somewhat aggrieved little face, Ning Xihan smiled and said, "Allure, what's wrong?" I didn't go out for a walk with you just now, are you angry? ”

Jiang Tingcheng pouted and didn't speak, but looking at his expression, Ning Xihan knew that Jiang Tingcheng must be angry with him.

Ning Xihan thought of a way, he conjured a bouquet of roses from his hand, and suddenly stretched out in front of Jiang Qingcheng.

Jiang Qingcheng saw that such a large handful of fiery red and fragrant roses appeared in front of her, she turned her head to look at Ning Xihan, and glanced at him in disbelief.

Ning Xihan hurriedly smiled and said, "This is my Spring Festival gift for you." Allure, do you like it? ”

Jiang Chengcheng's anger disappeared by more than half, took the bouquet of roses, held it in his arms and sniffed it vigorously. The fresh and elegant fragrance of roses came to his nose, which made Jiang Qingcheng's mood much better.

Jiang Chengcheng looked at Ning Xihan and said, "Brother Ning Xihan, why do you have to go to the North House to review as soon as you come back, and don't take me out to play?" I just came back from the market and brought a lot of delicious food, but I ate it all with me and Jianing. ”

"Because I was supposed to give myself a few questions today. I haven't solved it yet, so I'm going to Penang to do some work temporarily. Ning Xihan explained in a self-justifying manner.

"I see, Brother Xihan. Then I'm wrong about you. By the way, your cousin is in nearby Penang, so why doesn't he come and celebrate the Chinese New Year with us? Jiang Qingcheng asked innocently. She thought that Brother Ning Xihan must have his own important things to make her appointment, not that he didn't want to play with her.

Ning Xihan touched Jiang Tingcheng's broken hair on his forehead dotingly, and said with a smile: "Because my cousin also has many relatives in Penang, they are going to celebrate the New Year together." ”

Jiang Tingcheng said, "Okay then, Brother Xihan." When you're done with dinner, you can take me to the market." I would like to buy you a small gift. ”

Ning Xihan was pleasantly surprised and said, "Allure, what gift do you want to buy me?" Are you so small, do you have pocket money? ”

Jiang Tingcheng sold Guan Zi and said, "Hmph, I won't tell you, you will know when the time comes." ”

After dinner, many relatives and friends of Lord Jiang came to Jiang's mansion to celebrate the Spring Festival and Jiang Jianing's second birthday together.

The attentive Jiang Tingcheng found that Zhao Qin and Zhao Zhongliang and Zhao Tingshi also came to Jiang's mansion.

Zhao Qin's hands are obviously good, and they are no longer wrapped in cotton cloth. At first glance, Zhao Qin saw Jiang Tingcheng sitting at the dinner table, wearing a pink gold-trimmed cotton jacket, looking delicate and lovely, very eye-catching.

Zhao Qin hurriedly ran over to greet Jiang Tingcheng and said, "Sister Chengcheng, happy New Year." I have the honor to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with you this year. What do I have in my hand? It's your favorite shortbread. ”

Jiang Qingcheng looked at it, and Zhao Qin was carrying a small package in his hand, which was full of a large stack of shortbread.

Zhao Qin put the shortbread on the table, and Jiang Tingcheng liked it. She was reluctant to take it apart and eat it now, so she put the shortbread in the kitchen cabinet and returned to the dining table, where she found Zhao Qin already sitting next to her seat.

Jiang Jianing also put on new clothes at this time. He was wearing a heavy embroidered fiery red coat, which also made his skin appear more white and shiny, and there was a sense of grandeur.

Liu Yuhua hugged Jiang Jianing and walked to another table. The table was all close relatives of Master Jiang, including Jiang Jianing's grandparents.

Jiang Jianing saw Jiang Chengcheng, Zhao Qin and Ning Xihan sitting together, having fun at the adjacent table, so he whispered to Liu Yuhua: "Mother, I want to go to the table in Chengcheng." ”

Liu Yuhua shook his head and said, "Jianing, look, your grandparents, uncles and uncles are all at this table, and they will toast you to congratulate you on your birthday later." You can't be willful today. ”

"Okay." Jiang Jianing muttered a small mouth, silently shifting his gaze back to his desk.

Today's family banquet is very rich, there are many good dishes, meat and vegetarian snacks, and soups.

Soon the crowd arrived. Jiang Jianing heard the sound of crackling firecrackers at the door, and the festive atmosphere lingered in his heart, today he was the protagonist of this banquet.

Suddenly, he noticed a tingling and painful sensation in his feet. Jiang Jianing looked down and saw that it was Jiang Qingcheng who boldly held a small section of firecrackers and placed firecrackers at his feet.

Xiao Chengcheng laughed "hahahaha", she looked at Jiang Jianing's surprised and stunned expression, and said while clapping her hands: "Brother, happy birthday, I wish you a happy Spring Festival!" ”

Liu Yuhua glared at Jiang Tingcheng angrily, removed Jiang Jianing, and held him high in his arms.

Jiang Chengcheng surrounded Liu Yuhua, holding the firecracker, wanting to scare Jiang Jianing and tease him.
