Chapter 243 Celebrating New Year’s Eve

On the early morning of New Year's Eve, Zuo Weiyue put on the festive red plum embroidered winter dress, and Xiao Louhuai helped her wear two hair accessories with plush pom-poms on her double bun.

The little girl in the bronze mirror has a rosy complexion, and her baby-fat little face looks small and cute against the backdrop of the fur collar she wears around her neck.

A pair of green eyes were like the finishing touch. When he looked into her eyes, it was like seeing a forest surrounded by fireflies.

Seeing that Xiao Louhuai was about to put jewelry on her head, she stopped him speechlessly:

"Okay, okay, just wear these two and that's enough. Why wear so many? It's not like I'm going out to sell jewelry. I also have to decorate the courtyard. Don't waste time!"

Zuo Weiyue stood up from the wooden stool in front of the mirror box, rolled up two cuffs that were too long and inconvenient to work on, and asked Xiao Louhuai to follow him to get the three-piece set of spring couplets, New Year pictures and statues of gods.

It is said that these three things are prepared according to the rules in Xiding on New Year's Eve every year, from common people to princes and nobles.

Zuo Weiyue had previously lived in a magical world where there was no such thing as New Year celebrations. This was indeed her first experience, and she couldn't help but feel extremely excited.

Xiao Louhuai also noticed this, so he didn't force it anymore. Just seeing that she was still struggling to roll up the sleeves that were sliding down, he took out the maple red sleeves he had prepared for her in advance and let her go over.

, he tied her up.

"This is called a collar, and it's something that women from Xiding usually wear when working. With it, you don't have to roll up your sleeves frequently."

"You guys pick first. I don't know much about this thing. I'll make the paste first!"

There was still a lot of snow on the branches of the red plum, so he had to use his hands to knock off the snow before breaking it off.

Xiao Siyi chuckled and said, "Let's wait until night. It just so happens that the gift I want to give is best seen at night."

Under the sunshine, little Si Yi, who was wearing a festive crimson winter robe for the rare occasion today, was folding the red plums planted in the courtyard.

Ji Shi looked at little Si Yi who was still discussing with Xiao Louhuai on choosing the couplets. He touched his chin and thought about how he didn't get any news about little Si Yi leaving the City of Eternal Cold to celebrate the New Year in the capital.

arrive.

The gifts that Xiao Louhuai has received on New Year's Eve in the past few years are always the same. With his current status and the fact that he is quite "favored", he can get any material thing he wants, so he has no interest in it.

He waved his hand and asked Ji Shi to carry the things in.

After the Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures were all posted in the suburban mansion, and Zuo Weiyue clapped her hands and nodded with satisfaction with a sense of accomplishment, Ji Shi brought news that the New Year gifts from Gong Congde and Jin Xiaoyao had arrived.

Seeing this, Zuo Weiyue raised her voice and waved to him:

"Si Yi! Stop picking it, come here quickly, let's put up the Spring Festival couplets first!!"

Although these gems were obtained only through the master Zuo Weiyue, Feitian Magic Carpet felt that these gems were its reward for having served Zuo Weiyue as its mount for so long, so it was very reluctant to give them to it.

"In that case, I will definitely give you a gift in return, but I don't have anything to give you. The best thing is the gems hanging on the flying magic carpet."

"There are a lot of things. Your Highness, do you want to wait until you check them out before moving them in, or do you want to move them in first?"

Xiao Louhuai shook his head: "It's not necessary. You are not from here, so there is no need to follow this habit. But I did prepare a gift for you, but I can't give it to you now. I'll have to wait until dark.

OK."

The paste is made by adding flour and water. The cooking method was explained to her in detail by Xiao Louhuai on the couch last night, so when she started to cook it now, it went smoothly.

"Do you still give gifts during the New Year here?" Zuo Weiyue really didn't know about this. Watching Ji Shi and a group of guards transport things to the backyard, she was already thinking about what she could give as a gift.

Zuo Weiyue, with the help of Xiao Louhuai, put on her collared clothes and just went out, she saw several servants clearing the snow. The stone road in the yard was no longer blocked by the snow, and was completely exposed, illuminated by the warm winter sun.

.

This mansion in the suburbs has three entrances, so there are many places where you can post Spring Festival couplets. However, Zuo Weiyue had taken a fancy to a lot of Spring Festival couplets in the Zhuque Street area before, and bought at least six or seven.

.

After saying that, Xiao Louhuai glanced at Xiao Si Yi who was standing beside him, and patted his shoulder: "As for A Yi, you can give it to me now. Do you want to take it now, or do you have to do it at night?"

But although I was curious, I remembered that Xiao Louhuai and Xiao Siyi had been friends for several years. In the end, I didn't think much about it and continued to get the red lantern that needed to be hung at the door.

The Flying Magic Carpet sensed early on that its owner wanted to take action on the gems on its body, and rolled up the carpet as soon as it was called out. Even though it had no mouth, Zuo Weiyue guessed that it must be saying

No, we can no longer pick out the gems on it.

Only this time, Zuo Weiyue predicted the flying magic carpet in advance and inserted a finger to block it before it rolled up the carpet.

Today is a sunny day. The snow last night stopped and there is a thick layer of snow in the backyard.

"Hey, why didn't you tell me about this before?"

However, no matter how many doors there are to enter the house, there cannot be so many stickers, so after Xiao Siyi came over with the folded plum blossoms, the three of them began to study which pairs to use later.

Hearing that both of them had prepared gifts, no matter how shameless Zuo Weiyue was, she couldn't say nothing. After seeing that no one of the guards paid attention to her, she directly called out the flying magic carpet.

But since she wants to, he can make changes immediately, as long as it satisfies her.

Xiao Louhuai helped her put on the collar from behind, and said in a serious tone: "Because I never thought of causing you any trouble. If it weren't for your insistence, these matters of putting up Spring Festival couplets would usually be done by servants."

After all, going back to this period of time in the past, whenever money was needed or gifts were needed, the first reaction of its owner was to call it out and pick out the beautiful gems on its body.

Her magical power can conjure all kinds of things out of thin air, but they are all fake and last for a long time. If it is true, it seems that only the gems inlaid on the flying magic carpet can be given away.

Soon after it "struggled hard", Zuo Weiyue brutally tore open the blanket body, intending to find two larger gems and give them away.

Moreover, the gems you are looking for must be brought from the magic world, not the ones that Xiao Louhuai gave to the flying magic carpet before.

"In addition to exchanging money, these gems are not from this world, so they have several other functions that I haven't told you."

When he saw her trying to pick up the gems on the flying magic carpet, Xiao Louhuai originally wanted to say no, but when she added this sentence, he could only swallow what he was about to say and asked her instead: "What?

effect?"
