The next day was the first day of the new year, and yesterday there was a cold wind and a snowfall, and there were snowflakes in the morning, but fortunately this snow fell lightly, and only a thin layer was accumulated on the ground and trees.

As soon as the morning dawned, the girls in the yard got up to sweep the snow and hung up the lanterns that had been prepared earlier, because of the snow yesterday, they did not even hang the small lanterns, for fear that they would be crushed by the snow.

Mingxin hummed and pushed the snow, and when he saw the green snail on the side, he couldn't help but envy: "If I could be as powerful as you, how good it would be!" ”

Xie Yixiao woke up with a smile, pushed open the window just to see them shoveling snow, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "If you are as powerful as a green snail, maybe you will go to the sky." ”

Mingjing swept the path out with a broom, and smiled when he heard this: "That's right, if you can be as powerful as Qingluo, maybe you can go to heaven." ”

Mingxin sighed: "I'll just tell you, I can't compare to others after practicing for decades, right?" ”

Mingjing put down the broom, went to bring a basin of hot water to Xie Yixiao to wash, and put on a new dress for her.

Xie Yixiao's clothes were also prepared early, the begonia-colored dress was embroidered with clusters of golden plum blossoms, which was originally meant to be embroidered with peonies, but Xie Yixiao never liked to wear peonies, not because peonies were not good, but because peonies were too ostentatious, or plum bamboo orchids and peach lotuses were better.

Spiegel gave her a thin curl of hair, and then took out the balm and fat powder to put on makeup, Xie Yi smiled and saw that she put balm on her face, and then took the hand balm for her hands and applied it to her hands carefully.

Xie Yixiao's skin is very well maintained, white as jade, smooth to the touch like a shelled egg, she doesn't need to put on gouache, just apply skin care balm, and then add some fat powder to improve the color, it is a good look.

Her eyebrows and eyes are also very good, a pair of distant smoke eyebrows, like green mountains and cuidai, pleasing to the eye when peaceful, soft and soft when slightly frowning, a pair of apricot eyes are big, as if they are clear and smart, and as if there are autumn water ripples.

Xie Yixiao felt that if she wanted to play the White Lotus, she wouldn't know how to play others to death.

After the makeup was done, I also drew a plum blossom on the center of the eyebrows.

Finally, there is the jewelry, because it is necessary to wear clothes, this set of jewelry is also in the shape of plum blossoms, there are tired silk gold plum inlaid with rubies step swaying, there are gold plum inlaid ruby hairpins, and finally there is a pair of earrings, a pair of thin bracelets.

Xie Yixiao put on two delicate bracelets on her left hand, raised her eyes to look at herself in the bronze mirror, and felt that she was in a dream, she was dressed plainly and elegantly on weekdays, and her temperament was gentle and modest, but she was dressed like this, she was noble and dignified, and her complexion was charming.

Spiegel praised: "The girl is good-looking." ”

"It's really good-looking." Xie Yi smiled, then stood up, and Mingjing took the forbidden jade pendant for her to tie, and then took the shawl and put it on, but there was no lipstick.

Because I want to go to the main room of the outer courtyard for breakfast for a while, I don't need to order the lipstick first, but I have to bring it, and when I eat breakfast, I will go to the side room and order it.

As soon as they cleaned up, Xie Yiling came, he was wearing a cyan robe today, wearing a small lotus crown on his head, his hair was meticulously combed, and he looked like a young man with a single look.

"Sister." The first time Xie Yiling saw Xie Yixiao dressed like this, his eyes lit up, "Sister is like this, it's really good-looking." ”

Xie Yi smiled: "It's good-looking, right?" ”

"Beautiful." Xie Yiling nodded vigorously, "Sister is the best-looking." ”

Xie Yi laughed: "You went out today but ate sugar, why is your mouth so sweet, you left, and went to the front yard to pay New Year's greetings." ”

"Hmm." Xie Yiling happily walked with her, and then walked towards the main room.

When the two sisters and brothers arrived, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie Yi'an had just arrived, and Xie Yizhen was a little late and hadn't arrived yet.

Old lady Xie laughed: "I also said, today, you boys and girls, who came the earliest, it turned out to be you." ”

The two sisters and brothers stepped forward to greet the elders: "Yixiao, Yiling has given the uncle a New Year's greeting, I wish you good health and longevity." ”

Old lady Xie laughed, said three good things in a row, and then asked people to send New Year's money and New Year's gifts, a set of jewelry for Xie Yixiao, and a box of rosin ink for Xie Yiling.

"Uncle Xie."

Old lady Xie said: "It's another year, I'm a year older, Yixiao is almost getting married this year, before getting married, follow your sister-in-law to learn housekeeping, don't be lazy and slack, learn well, it will be beneficial for the rest of your life." ”

"Yiling must study hard, and don't slack off."

The two of them answered yes.

After paying a farewell to Mrs. Xie, he gave New Year's greetings to Xie Yi'an and Mrs. Xie.

This year, the Xie family had a good life, although Xie Jin lost the top three in the imperial examination and only got the fourth, but he also smoothly entered the Hanlin Academy, Xie Yixiao had His Majesty to marry Rong Jiugongzi, and the family also added Ding imported, and when the spring flowers bloomed, Xie Zhuo's bride was also going to enter the door.

Xie Yi'an was full of red face: "They are all good children, what do you have to tell your elders, your parents are gone, but there are still brothers and uncles at home, and there is a family." ”

Mrs. Xie asked people to present the New Year's money and New Year's gifts, and said: "No, you are young, similar to the children of me and your eldest brother, if someone bullies you, but if you want to say it, don't bear it yourself." ”

Xie Yi smiled: "Thank you big brother and sister-in-law, Yi Xiao wrote it down." ”

Xie Yiling also said: "I also wrote it down, but the eldest brother and sister-in-law are relieved, no one dares to bully me." ”

"Just write it down."

After waiting for a while, Xie Yu came.

Xie Yu was wearing a new royal blue dress, holding a folding fan in his hand, shaking it and shaking it, seeing that Xie Yixiao and Xie Yiling had arrived, oops.

"I'm late, am I? I thought I was the first to come to visit the New Year, but I didn't expect there to be earlier, oops, little aunt, little eighth uncle, you two, are not kind, not kind! ”

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, why is he so skinny?

If you don't beat him for a day, he wants to go to heaven, doesn't he?

Xie Yi smiled and stroked the hair in his ears: "Reasoning, although Yiling and I are a little younger, we are also aunts and grandmothers, uncles and grandfathers, and we can be regarded as elders, and you can also be regarded as the first to come to pay New Year's greetings." ”

"Come on, come on, I've got New Year's money and New Year's gifts for you, my good nephew."

When Xie Yu heard the end, he trembled all over, his heart was furious, and he felt a little scary.

Xie Yiling nodded vigorously: "That's it, junior, it's time for you to pay New Year's greetings, your eighth uncle has prepared a New Year's gift for you." ”

Everyone present couldn't help but laugh.
