It wasn't until it was completely dark that Old Yetou sighed deeply and said, "Let's start dinner."
Mrs. Wang took He Xiner in and out to set up the meal. Ye Feifeng followed silently and helped to get things. He Xiner gave her a puzzled look and said nothing.
Ye Xusheng had already returned from Zhang's house and stayed in his room without coming out. It was He Xiner who went to call him.
"Cousin, it's time to eat."
"Um."
"Xin'er~"
"Um?"
"Cold?"
"..."
He Xiner looked up at her cousin in confusion. The cousin in front of her was almost hidden in the night. The emotion in his eyes could not be seen clearly, and there was an inexplicable sense of alienation.
"Cousin, let's go to the hot springs sometime?"
"good."
The answer without hesitation made He Xiner feel very good.
"Oh, that's great. I've wanted to go there for a long time, but my cousin has been busy..."
Uh~
Why bring this up?
"My cousin will give you a gift later."
"ah?"
He Xiner was a little confused. When she realized what she was doing, she was both happy and curious. "What gift can't you give now?"
Even in the dark night, Ye Xusheng still saw the little girl's joyful expression. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and said with a chuckle, "I'll give you New Year's gifts when I'm pregnant."
Is there any other way to say this?
Well, her cousin's gift is worth her patience.
Ye Xusheng walked in front, lifted up the thin cotton curtain, and pushed open the wooden door inside to let He Xiner go first. He closed the door again behind him.
There are two fire pots placed in the main hall of the upper room. The room is as warm as spring. There are pots of red plums placed on the tables on the left and right sides. They are blooming in full bloom, and the pink stamens are exuding bursts of fragrance~
Old Yetou, who had a dull look on his face, looked at his eldest grandson and He Xiner, and his dark old face finally softened a bit.
These are all good children he values.
As for the useless thing, let it be.
So, with the earnest expectations of the whole family, Lao Yetou cheered up and took his descendants to worship their ancestors.
Today's New Year's Eve dinner is even more sumptuous than last year's, but Old Ye Tou is not happy either. His grandson is an ignorant child, ignorant, and to put it bluntly, a fool...
He has no face to face his ancestors.
Kowtow silently and stand up silently.
Little Xuyang obediently hid in the wooden bed, staring at a burning red candle with her bright eyes, unblinking, and her fair little face had no expression...
Old Ye glanced at his dazed grandson, and his heart became even more congested. He was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe. Even when facing a table full of delicacies, he couldn't work up his appetite.
The head of the family had a drooped face, while the others did not dare to laugh and remained silent.
Xiao Qian shrank his neck and lowered his head, trying his best to reduce his presence and not daring to make any noise.
Ye Laiyin knew that his father and elder brother were in a bad mood, and he was also in a bad mood. His fair and tender little nephew looked so handsome, so how could he be...
Alas~
Sighing secretly, Ye Laiyin suddenly woke up. He couldn't lament and sigh in front of his father and elder brother. Wouldn't it make them feel even more uncomfortable?
"Dad, eldest brother, in order to celebrate the New Year today, I specially bought good wine. A jar of strong wine costs fifty cents. Dad and eldest brother will definitely drink a few more glasses."
"Xu Sheng, give it to your master and your father."
"Haha, my eldest nephew's wine-pouring skills are top-notch, and every detail is not spilled..."
"Yes, the wine poured out by my cousin is like a thin and long silver thread. He fills the glass in one go without any pause. This craftsmanship is really beautiful~"
Seeing her father constantly looking for topics with a stiff smile in order to create an atmosphere, He Xiner hurriedly smiled and agreed, trying to find a way to talk. This chapter has been completed!
