The backyard guests also gradually dispersed. The servants were busy cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and after Ning Xihan escorted Jiang Tingcheng back to the boudoir where she and Jiang Qiancheng admired, she also returned to her north house to rest.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, many markets reopened.

Jiang Tingcheng dragged Ning Xihan to the southwest market early in the morning to choose gifts.

Ning Xihan took Jiang Qingcheng's little hand, and the two walked out of Jiang's mansion.

Jiang Weiguo saw Ning Xihan go out, immediately washed up, and prepared to go to the yamen to send someone to find out the details of Ning Xihan.

Liu Yuhua saw Jiang Weiguo washing, so he asked, "My lord, where are you going when you get up so early?" ”

Jiang Weiguo hurriedly prevaricated: "I'll go to the yamen to do some business, and I'll be back in a while." ”

Liu Yuhua thought that Jiang Weiguo's new official took office and was very attentive to his work, so he said with a smile: "My lord, then you can go to the yamen to do something, I will take care of Allure, Admiration and Jianing at home." ”

"Jiang Tingcheng just went out to play with Ning Xihan, didn't you notice?" Jiang Weiguo said.

"Oh, is it? I didn't see it. It's okay, Ning Xihan is measured, he is a sensible child, they should go home before noon. Liu Yuhua said.

"Well, then you can wait for them to come back. I'm going to Yamen, and I'll be back in about half an hour. After Jiang Weiguo finished speaking, he got dressed and walked out of the house.

Ning Xihan and Jiang Tingcheng walked in the southwest market. Jiang Tingcheng found that many pawnshops had already opened, but some had not yet opened.

Jiang Chengcheng saw a store selling shoes, so he pulled Ning Xihan and walked in.

Ning Xihan said to Jiang Chengcheng: "Chengcheng, don't you want to buy me a pair of shoes as a gift?" ”

Jiang Tingcheng said: "If you see something you like, then I will buy it and give it to you as your New Year's gift." ”

Ning Xihan smiled and said, "Then Allure, shouldn't I also choose a good gift for you as a return gift?" ”

Jiang Tingcheng thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible." ”

Ning Xihan led Jiang Tingcheng into the shoe store.

Jiang Tingcheng took a fancy to a pair of black velvet shoes, pointed to Ning Xihan and said, "Brother Xihan, do you like this pair?" I think it works well with you. ”

Ning Xihan said: "Since you like it, then I'll try it." ”

Jiang Tingcheng said: "Okay, then you can try it on." ”

Ning Xihan called the clerk and measured the size of his feet, and the clerk immediately brought a pair of suitable shoes and asked Ning Xihan to sit down and try them on.

Ning Xihan sat on the stool, took off the original pair of old yellowed gray shoes, and quickly put on the new pair of shoes, the size was just right, and it matched his temperament very well.

Jiang Tingcheng clapped his hands and said, "Brother Xihan, you are really handsome in these shoes, do you like it?" I think it's a good fit for you. ”

Ning Xihan also said happily: "Since we both like it, let's buy this pair." Boss, these shoes shouldn't be expensive, right? ”

The boss came over and said, "These shoes are really not expensive, they are discounted for the New Year, only 300 yuan." ”

Jiang Qingcheng took out a small money bag from her pants pocket, counted the exactly three hundred coins in it, and poured out all the three hundred coins and put them on the table.

The boss counted it, and it was exactly three hundred dollars, so he accepted it. Ning Xihan found that Jiang Qingcheng's money bag was immediately empty, and there was not a single copper plate left.

Ning Xihan touched Jiang Chengcheng's hair distressedly and said, "Allure, how did you use up your pocket money?" If I had known, I wouldn't have let you pay. ”

Jiang Qingcheng said with a smile: "I can buy a New Year's gift for Brother Xihan, no matter how much money I spend, it is worth it." ”

Ning Xihan happily accepted the new shoes that the boss had wrapped for him, and said to Jiang Tingcheng: "Let's go, I'll buy you a good gift too." ”
