The unabashed sarcasm was engraved in Yang's eyes.
"I'm just kindly reminding Brother Shi, why did Second Aunt tell me that she doesn't want to see Brother Shi? What about Second Aunt? What was Second Aunt thinking when she was talking about A Xu just now?"
"What can I have in mind? I just kindly reminded Brother Xu..." As soon as he said this, Yang immediately regretted it.
Sure enough, Xie Wu's sarcastic laughter rang out again, "Yeah, I just reminded Brother Shi out of kindness, so what? Second Aunt's reminder is out of good intentions, but my reminder is out of bad intentions?"
"me……"
"Okay! Aren't you embarrassed enough?" Xie Zheng gave Yang a hard look and interrupted her angrily.
Recently, Mr. Yang always does some stupid things that make him lose face!
He has told her several times, but it still happens every time! He really wonders if she has been confused by something, otherwise why would she do stupid things and say stupid things!
"What's wrong? What are you doing here, you guys who are celebrating the Chinese New Year?" As soon as the old lady entered the door, she saw that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the room, and she couldn't help but frown and said.
"Mother."
"grandmother."
Everyone stood up one after another to make peace.
The old lady held Jiang Yingxue's hand and walked past the crowd until she reached the front and sat down on the warm couch. Then she raised her eyes and looked at the crowd again and said, "Please sit down, it's rare for our family to gather like this this year..."
Brother Xu? Why don’t you see him? "
"Grandma, I'm here."
A cheerful voice rang outside the house, and immediately afterwards, Xie Xu was seen running in wearing a bright red brocade robe with five sticks and birthday flowers. He also wore a red gold collar around his neck, which looked both festive and festive.
Wealth.
Ever since she got older, the old lady likes her juniors to dress festively and lively, especially tonight is New Year's Eve. Therefore, facing Xie Xu, who is smiling and happy, the smile on the old lady's face is rare and a little more loving.
.
"You little monkey, run slower and be careful not to trip."
In the time it took to speak, Xie Xu had already arrived in front of the old lady. He happily took over the old lady's words and said, "No, no, grandma, I'm smart."
The old lady laughed, stretched out her index finger and tapped Xie Xu's forehead and laughed loudly, "I see that you are also a clever little kid."
"Axu, don't act rude and don't pay your respects to your grandmother!" Xie Zheng glared at Xie Xu with a sullen expression.
Xie Xu stuck out his tongue at Xie Zheng, then took a step back and bowed to the old lady in a very dignified manner, "My grandson sends my regards to my grandmother. May she have a long and prosperous life."
"Okay, okay, brother Xu, this lesson has not been in vain, this little mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter." The old lady said cheerfully, and after saying that, she glanced at Aunt Zhu behind her.
Aunt Zhu understood and immediately took the brocade box from Pearl's hand.
The old lady opened the brocade box, took out a purse from it and stuffed it into Xie Xu's hand cheerfully, "Take it, this is the New Year's money given to you by your grandmother. I wish you peace and success in your studies."
"Thank you, grandma." Xie Xu pinched the heavy purse in his hand and smiled broadly. While he was smiling, he suddenly leaned into the old lady's ear and whispered, "Grandma, I just went to Nanmen Hutong to buy fireworks.
, I will go to the courtyard to show you alone in a moment."
"Okay, okay, you are interested." The old lady was so coaxed by Xie Xu's words that her eyes and eyebrows were filled with smiles.
Mrs. Yang looked at the happy expressions of her grandparents and grandchildren from the side, and the grievance and resentment in her heart suddenly surged out again.
The old lady used to love Brother Shi so much, but since the big house moved back to the capital, the old lady has gradually become indifferent to Brother Shi.
Isn't it just because the uncle is the heir apparent and has received the post of Deputy General Zuo Yiwei? But her brother Shi is not bad either! In terms of literary talent and martial arts, he is better than Brother Xu! He will definitely have a better future than Brother Xu in the future! I am
As people get older, their eyelids also become lighter!
In fact, the reason why the old lady was colder to Xie Shi than before was because she was so disappointed that he was almost expelled from Songyang Academy due to the cockfighting incident.
She deliberately kept him cold to temper him, but unfortunately, Yang didn't understand the painstaking efforts, and even Xie Shi probably didn't understand either.
"Grandma, I also want lucky money." At this time, a milky voice also sounded.
When everyone saw it, it was Xie Ru, the fourth girl from the second room. She was waving her fat arms in the nanny's arms, while the nanny holding her looked embarrassed.
Who would have thought that a three-year-old baby would ask for lucky money!
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that my sister Ru is a little money fanatic!" Xie Feng smiled happily. After speaking, he turned to look at the old lady and continued, "Mother, you can't be partial!"
"Yes, yes, yes." The old lady was also pleased by Xie Ru's sudden words, and hurriedly asked Aunt Zhu to distribute the prepared purses to everyone one by one.
Both Xie Zheng and his wife had one, and even Jiang Yingxue had one.
Everyone stood up one after another to thank the old lady and salute.
The old lady nodded with satisfaction, and said loudly, "This year is the most gathering of people in our Marquis' Mansion. From now on, our Marquis' Mansion will only get better and better and more prosperous. You two brothers must work hard!"
"After saying that, she looked at Xie Zheng and Xie Feng who were standing at the front with eager eyes.
"A son should remember his mother's teachings."
"A son should remember his mother's teachings."
Xie Zheng and Xie Feng saluted in unison.
The old lady nodded again with satisfaction, "Okay, let's all take a seat!"
Since it was the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone was drinking and laughing regardless of the rules. From the outside, it looked like there was a bit of a family atmosphere.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Xie Xu said that he was going to set off fireworks in the courtyard, and he insisted on dragging the old lady to watch it with him. Xie Xin, the third son of the second room, also agreed after hearing this. Xie Yuan and Xie Xian were also a little moved, and the old lady
Seeing this, he simply smiled and said to everyone, "Since Brother Xu bought it specially, let's all go outside and take a look to see what kind of strange thing it is!"
The old lady had spoken, and naturally no one had any reason not to respond. So, a large group of people surrounded the old lady and went outside the courtyard.
Xie Xu ordered people to move the purchased fireworks to the courtyard, and went to light the fuses himself, but his actions frightened the old lady so much that she hurriedly called him back.
Xie Xu had no choice but to hand over the fire seal in his hand to the boy.
Soon, the fireworks were lit, and with a "bang" sound, the gorgeous fireworks exploded overhead. Countless flowers bloomed and fell in the night sky. Before they could fall to the ground, countless more flowers bloomed immediately...
Xie Wu quietly looked at the extinguishing fireworks above her head, and listened to the bursts of cheers and cheers around her, but suddenly there was an indescribable desolation in her heart.
Her previous life was just like this firework. She even perished in the boundless darkness before it could bloom.
"Sister, sister, look!" Suddenly, a hearty and genuine voice pulled her out of the darkness.
Fireworks bloomed again above the head. Although there was only a moment of light, a hole was still opened in the lonely night. Father, mother, A Xu, Wu Qing, Mi Yue... everyone's faces were extremely clear.
, the smile in everyone’s eyes is real and warm...
Perhaps, this is the reason why the fireworks continue to bloom even though they know they will die. After watching the fireworks, everyone hugged the old lady and returned to the flower hall to sit.
It has always been the custom for families to sit together and watch the night on New Year's Eve. In addition, we have just watched the fireworks together. It is a time when everyone is excited. Even if there are some barriers on weekdays, in this atmosphere, it is rare for everyone to give up these things and start joking and joking.
Got up.
"Second brother, do Ningxia also set off fireworks on New Year's Eve?" Xie Xin looked at Xie Xu and asked curiously.
"Of course, my grandfather takes me to light fireworks on the city tower every year! It's such a big one, it can light up the entire city of Ningxia!" Xie Xu replied proudly, bending his eyes.
"I really envy you. I have never seen my grandfather before I grew up..." Xie Xin said full of yearning.
"It doesn't matter. When you grow up, I will take you to Ningxia to find your grandfather! Let me tell you, my grandfather is amazing! He can carry me from home to the military camp with one hand. He can also ride a horse, shoot an arrow, and hunt.
He can also barbecue and tell stories!" Speaking of his grandfather, Xie Xu's clear pupils were full of admiration.
"So grandpa is so powerful!"
"No! You'll know when you see your grandfather!"
Xie Xu's words made all the juniors yearn for this grandfather they had never met before.
Xie Wu looked at everything with a smile, and her grandfather's tall figure gradually emerged in her mind. He suddenly turned around and waved to her, grinning and shouted to her, "Girl, come to my grandfather quickly."
Her grandfather was truly a wonderful, wonderful man!
Everyone joked and joked again, and gradually, the younger ones couldn't bear it anymore and began to doze off, swaying one by one. Even Xie Xu, who had just looked excited, fell asleep at this time, and his upper and lower eyelids kept drowsing.
Stand up.
"Forget it, it's getting late, let's get out of here! You guys are dozing off." Seeing the little people dozing off, the old lady said with a smile.
"Mother……"
Xie Zheng wanted to say something else, but he saw the old lady waving her hand towards him tiredly and saying, "Don't say they can't stand it, even I can't stand it. They say it's New Year's Eve, but in fact it's just a formality. You guys stay with me.
I've been sitting here for so long, and I've done all I can. Let's all go back. We have to get up early tomorrow to go to the ancestral hall to worship our ancestors."
Seeing that the old lady looked really tired, Xie Zheng didn't say anything and stood up first to salute the old lady.
Seeing this, other people also stood up and bowed to the old lady to leave.
Xie Zheng saluted, bent down and carried Xie Xu on his back, then saluted the old lady again, and then led Chen and Xie Wu out of the house.
The dim yellow light illuminates the bluestone road under your feet.
Xie Wu followed Xie Zheng silently, and she walked steadily every step of the way.
Suddenly, the sound of "bang bang" was heard above the head, and colorful fireworks gradually bloomed everywhere above the head, like peonies, butterflies, and the Milky Way.
The entire capital city was decorated with colorful fireworks, making it the most beautiful and prosperous city.
Xie Zheng, who was walking in front, stopped at some point. He looked up at this glorious scene, and his eyes suddenly became moist for some unknown reason.
"I really hope it can always be like this."
The glorious scenery of the prosperous age spread throughout the Wei Dynasty, and the country and its people lived in peace and contentment.
"It will always be like this." A clear voice replied from behind.
Xie Zheng turned his face sideways, and it turned out that Xie Wu had walked beside him and stood side by side with him. Her eyes were as clear and as clean as the purest lake water. The fireworks above her head shattered in her eyes, blooming with indescribable emotions.
of beauty.
Because there are many people like grandfathers in the Wei Dynasty, they try their best to protect this country and everyone's home.
