This New Year in Shuojing City will soon arrive.
Last year, when He Yan was in Liangzhou Wei, he failed to come back. After this year, he had to get married again. He Sui went to buy some new year’s goods, and had to spend a lively New Year at home. It is a pity that he was not originally a Shuo Jing native. Since Mrs. Dahe’s death, there have been fewer relatives in the family, and few of them have been able to get married.
However, the neighbors in the neighborhood are very enthusiastic. From time to time, they come to give some dried fruit to eat. This family cooks dumplings and sends a plate. The family marinates the meat and puts it in one piece. I will marry the Xiao family in the future and become a grandma, but don’t forget our neighbors. When I was a kid, I still held you.
“Yes, yes, I’ve sewed small clothes for you!”
To Xiao Jue’s blessing, this year’s meat is enough without buying.
However, He Yan still paid for some things by himself, and asked the people to bring them to Wang Ba, and by the way, gave a gift to several head teachers. In their camp outside the city, they could only follow the soldiers together. She was about to get married in the tenth day, and He Yan wanted Xiao Jue to let them take a leave. The stone group and her friends who followed her from Liangzhou Wei to the present, He Yan wanted to invite them to join their own feast.
However, since Xiao Jue, who met Chu Zhao on the day of the fight, appeared, she has not seen Xiao Jue in the past few days. Wanting to come is busy behind the case of Mingshui.
The sky gradually darkened, and the sound of fireworks in the distance could be heard faintly. There was no snow tonight and it was a sunny night. He Sui moved the table to the courtyard and asked He Yan to come and eat. New Year’s Eve He Yan had to help, but He Sui refused, He Sui said: “You will get married after the New Year, how can you let you work, sit! Yan Yan, you just have to eat. “
He Yunsheng rolled his eyes secretly.
A large table dish, even with green plums, but only four people, but put five pairs of tableware. The pair of empty tableware is Mrs. He who passed away.
He Sui poured a small glass of mulled wine for everyone. This was his annual gift from the host when he was guarding. He Sui took a drink from the glass and took a sip, looking at the empty tableware and chopsticks, his eyes softened, and some emotion: “If A Hui is still there, seeing Yan Yancheng married, I don’t know how happy.”
“A Hui” is Mrs. He who passed away.
He Yan felt a little sad, the real Miss He Er was gone, but all she could do now was to replace Miss He Er and live well to protect He Sui and He Yunsheng, and Ome.
“Dad, don’t talk about these things when you are overjoyed,” He Yunsheng frowned. “It may be that my mother was a **** in the sky to bless my sister before teaching her to marry out smoothly. You see her In this way, unless God blesses me, I can only argue with me at home in this life. No one wants to marry.”
He Yan looked at him with a smile: “Yes, but Yun Sheng, I think you are not too young, I don’t know what kind of girl you will marry in the future? Are other girls happy to look at you? Your temper If you don’t change it, you may really have to quarrel with Xiangxiang at home in the future.”
“You nonsense, I…” He Yunsheng immediately retorted.
He Yantu cheered closer: “Oh, do you already have a girl you like? Come and listen?”
Regarding the fight over the mouth, He Yunsheng has never won He Yan. He was anxious and turned his head to find He Sui: “Dad, look at He Yan!”
“There is nothing wrong with what your sister said.” He Sui will always stand on the side of He Yan. “You should learn from your brother-in-law.”
He Yan was bowing his head to taste wine, and when he heard the words, he almost choked on it.
He Yunsheng looked at her happily, and Ome smiled lowly, covering her mouth.
“Okay, let’s not talk about it,” He Sui raised the cup. “In the new year, I hope we are all auspicious and good things happen again and again!”
In the night sky, far away can see the fireworks, and the new year is coming.
He Sui did not allow He Yan to drink too much wine, so He Yan only drank a small glass, and it was enough to have a meaning. But He Yunsheng drank a lot. The original family who said that they were good together stayed together. The father and son fell down before the hour. He Yan and Qingmei spent a lot of effort to send them back to the collapse, and then returned to the hall, burning the stove.
Qingmei rubbed her hands and said, “I didn’t expect the young master and the old man to be drunk so early.”
He Yan couldn’t laugh or cry, but Shou Sui, who was proposed by He Yunsheng, slept soundly, and just helped him.
“Do you want to eat?” He Yan handed a roasted orange to Ome.
Ome took it and peeled the orange peel, took a petal and put it in his mouth. The He family did not take the green plum as the current person, and it was not as good as the rich and the rich. The oranges were a bit sour, Ome squinted her eyes, and swallowed it, saying: “I didn’t think that the family was a bit deserted during the Chinese New Year today. When the master and junior were not there, there were only the girl and the slave.”
Looking at other people, a large family is happy and lively.
He Yan didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. She had gone more by herself, but she didn’t have such a melancholy like Mei. Instead, he looked at Qingmei and nodded, “Chiwu should be called.”
Qingmei was stunned: “What does this have to do with Chiwu Guards?”
“It does matter,” He Yan also took an orange and ate while eating: “He lived here a while ago. You didn’t say indifference. Now that he is away, you say indifference. You miss him.”
Qingmei froze, denying without thinking: “I don’t, girl, don’t talk nonsense.”
“Actually, it’s nothing.” He Yan grilled the peeled orange peel on the edge of the stove, and there was a burst of fragrance in the hall. “When I go to the Xiao’s house, we will be your own girl, of course. Follow along. When you saw Chiwu, you looked up and did not look down, then you won’t feel deserted.”
“Girl,” Ome’s anxious stomping really didn’t mean that. “
“I think Chiwu is not bad,” He Yan deliberately teased her. “He was born very well, and he was from Jiuqiying. He may not be allowed to be an official in the future. And he listens to you, I think if you let him sweep the floor, he sweeps it, and let him dry his clothes. If he doesn’t mean that to you, why should he obey?
“Girl!” Qingmei was annoyed, her face flushed red, and she stood up suddenly. She stopped eating oranges and stayed up at night. She just said, “The slave-servant doesn’t mean that, and the girl doesn’t want to talk nonsense. I and Chiwu guards Nothing.” She put the orange back and ran away.
“Hey?” He Yan asked in the back: “Don’t keep old?”
“No more!”
He Yan regretted it a little bit, as if she shouldn’t be so funny, now she was the only vigil. She picked up the oranges that Fang Caiqingmei put down, threw it up, and sighed: “Little girl with a heartfelt heart.”
Someone’s voice sounded: “You know more.”
He Yan looked back and Xiao Jue leaned on the door of their house, looking at her with a smile on her chest.
“Xiao Jue?” She was overjoyed. “Why are you here?” She looked out again: “You came in directly?”
“I knocked on the door,” Xiao Jue walked in and said: “However, there is no guard in your house, whether it knocks on the door, it makes no difference.”
This is also to be honest.
He Yanla sat down by the stove and tucked an orange into his hand, “Did you eat?”
Xiao Jue took the orange and held it in his hand, but did not eat it.
“How did you come?” He Yan asked, “Will you not be with your elder sister-in-law at the house?”
“After the New Year’s Eve dinner, come and see you,” he said, looking around again, and thoughtfully opened his mouth: “Why are your father and brother not here?”
“Don’t say, drunk, I helped them to sleep in the house.” She looked at Xiao Jue, “If you come one step late, I will fall asleep.”
Xiao Jue: “Why are you sleeping when you are waiting for me?”
“I didn’t wait for you.” He Yan was inexplicable.
Xiao Jue looked at her sideways, with a faint look of “Oh”.
He Yanfu Zhixin grabbed his arm and said sincerely: “How do you know that I am waiting for you! I just waited until everyone fell asleep before I waited for you! No one is now, just…”
“What exactly?”
“Exactly…” He Yan was casually arrogant, and did not edit it. His eyes brightened when he raised his eyes.
“Exactly, please have an orange.” He Yan held his hand and lifted the orange to his chest.
Xiao Jue looked at her for a while, then chuckled sideways.
He Yan felt that he might be something like pistachios. Xiao Jue, who is not close to humans in the weekdays, is always amused by himself. This is also an ability that ordinary people do not have.
“It doesn’t make sense to sit in the room, do you want to sit on the roof?” He Yan invited him enthusiastically.
“Roof?”
He Yan grabbed his hand and went out: “Yes!”
The house of the He family was originally not an expensive house, and the roof was not very high. She sat side by side with Xiao Jue, her hands behind her, and looked up into the distance.
In the city of Shuojing, fireworks were everywhere. They were too far away to see clearly, and only bright stars that flowed across the sky.
“I didn’t go to the military camp when I was a kid. I liked climbing the roof.” He Yan said: “The roof of the He family is higher than here. At that time, my kung fu was not good. Once I fell down after climbing halfway. I was afraid that Mrs. He would not be able to make a noise. Later, at that time, my back hurt a lot.”
Xiao Juewei: “Why do you like to climb the roof?”
“Because it’s high enough,” He Yan compared with an archery posture, “Climbing to a high enough place, you can go to the sky to grab the moon and pick the stars by hand.”
He laughed: “Childish.”
“Who was not naive when I was a kid?” He Yan retorted. “Besides, I haven’t climbed the roof in years.”
After investing in the army, they lived in tents, where the roof can be climbed, not to mention after getting married. Now think about it, climbing the roof is a long time ago.
“If you want,” Xiao Jue said: “The roof of the Xiao family will be yours in the future.”
He Yan looked at him sideways and asked tentatively, “Is it okay to climb after marrying?”
“Row.”
“Is it okay to climb with you?”
“Row.”
“Hugging the food…”
Xiao Jue interrupted her: “You can do whatever you want.”
He Yan blinked his eyes and smiled, his smile could not be covered, like the splashing water, zoomed in a circle.
Xiao Jue glanced at her, seemingly speechless, and said after a moment: “Is it so happy to climb a roof?”
“Of course,” He Yan replied: “I am very satisfied and have no expensive interest. You can eat, wear and climb on the roof.”
Xiao Jue smiled a bit, not sure.
“Hey,” He Yan touched his arm. “What happened to Xu Xiangyu’s party?”
Xiao Jue’s smile narrowed down, “A part of it belongs to Chu Zilan.”
This was what He Yan had expected, and she asked, “Do you mean that Chu Zhao’s previous righteousness to destroy his parents was intentional?”
“Eight out of nine.” Xiao Jue looked away, “He should have replaced Xu Jingfu’s position in the Prince’s heart.”
“Do you know what the emperor thinks about the Uto people?” He Yan asked: “After this, the emperor should not accept the Uto people’s proposal for summing up again?”
Xiao Jue didn’t speak. After a while, he gently shook his head.
In fact, He Yan knew that Emperor Wenxuan was not the most important. The contradiction between the crown prince and the four princes, I am afraid that because of Xu Jingfu’s death, I will plan faster, and I am afraid that the battle will be on the table brightly.
Between Xiao Jue and the Crown Prince Guangyan, it is regarded as a kouqiu. If in the future it really wants to…it must stand on the head of the four princes, but the name is not correct. If the emperor intends to pass the edict, at least the name must be eaten. Some bitterness.
“Don’t worry,” Xiao Jue said indifferently: “I know.”
He Yan smiled: “Also, today is the new year, or don’t think about these as well.”
“The wedding dress is ready,” Xiao Jue suddenly changed his head. “In a few days, people will be sent to the house.”
“So fast?”
Xiao Jue glanced at her: “He got married in less than ten days, where is it fast?”
He Yan said with a smile: “Although that is the case, but…”
I didn’t even think about it on weekdays. Listening to him said that it seemed like a sudden feeling of nervousness was coming.
“I will not see you again tomorrow.”
He Yan: “Why?”
“Newlyweds, you can’t meet each other a few days before marriage,” Xiao Jue replied.
He Yan whispered: “I don’t see you as such a regular person on weekdays.”
Xiao Jue raised an eyebrow.
“I mean,” He Yan grabbed his hand and said sincerely, “You’re right, it should be so. I’m so relieved that you can handle everything well.”
She now understands that Xiao Jue is a soft eater but not a hard eater. As long as two good words are touted and touted him, he is very happy. Knowing that this person is so coaxing, He Yan thought that when he was in the Xianchang Pavilion, he should hold his thighs flatteringly, maybe he would also be instructed by swordsmanship and horsemanship besides swordsmanship.
Her acting was clumsy, but Xiao Jue just looked at the hand grabbed by He Yan, paused, and then put her hand on her palm again.
“He Yan.” He called her name.
“what?”
“Happy New Year.” He said lightly, with black pupils full of stars at night, more touching than the fireworks in the sky.
He Yan froze for a moment.
A kind of warm satisfaction gradually rose from her chest, and she suddenly felt that this new year was really a brand new year.
“You’re welcome,” she tilted her head, leaning on Xiao Jue’s shoulder, rubbing hard, “You are also happy new year.”
…
At the end of the street, the sound of firecrackers came from afar.
On every door, new couplets are posted.
In Shi Jinbo’s Mansion, this year was a particularly bleak year.
Originally calculated according to this time, the Chu family should be the bride’s entrance, just the day when things are doubled. Unexpectedly, the Xu family had an accident not long ago, and even the Chu family was unlucky. Although Chu Zhao finally killed his parents, he escaped for a while. But Shi Jinbo, because of his family affairs with the Xu family, suddenly became a joke in Beijing from everyone’s envy. Chu Linfeng had a good face, closed the door throughout the year and did not walk out of the door, and the house did not have the half-hearted joy of the Chinese New Year.
Chu Zhao’s courtyard was even more silent.
The few days after Xu Pingting arrived, he learned the truth about Xu Jingfu’s death, and in the courtyard, he scolded Chu Zhao for being ruthless and innocent, and complained about virtue. a lot of. But in this way, the only bit of excitement in the entire courtyard disappeared.
Chu Zhao was sitting in the house, the sound of fireworks was far away, outside the house door and inside the house door, like two completely different worlds.
Someone came in from behind, and the little fellow said: “Four sons, Yingxiang girl has written.”
Chu Zhao took the letter and looked at it. After a while, he placed the letter in the flame on the oil lamp and gradually burned it out.
A strange-shaped stone was placed on the table, and the human palm was flat. If you look closely, it seems to be the shape of a horse, but the fracture looks rough and uneven. It is out of tune with other displays on the table.
Chu Zhao’s eyes fell on the stone, and his expression gradually became distant.
Xiao Pao paused, struggling for a moment, and finally couldn’t help but say: “Four sons, why didn’t she leave Grandma Xu with Grandma Xu when she saw that girl that day?”
He Yan values He Xinying so much. If He Xinying is used as a coercion, it is impossible for He Yan and Xiao Jue’s relatives to succeed.
“Useless.” Chu Zhao returned.
The little man puzzled and looked at the person before him. The man was sitting alone at the table, the light from the oil lamp was weak, and his figure was thin and lonely. In the large mansion, like he was alone, he would be sitting here alone for a long time.
“She is a woman who can control her destiny in her own hands.” After a long time, Chu Zhaocai smiled and said, “No one can coerce her.”
“I can’t, Xiao Huaijin can’t, He Xinying can’t.”
The night market in the water city of Jiyang appeared in front of his eyes. The bright-eyed girl was walking on the street. The crowd was violent, and the lanterns were like the day. She stood there, different from everyone else. At a glance, she understood that she longed for the sky, not the cage.
He is a person who can not control his own destiny, so he will make the gods miserable, inexplicable, hopelessly attracted by her, but destined to be abandoned again.
Because, as she said, they are not all the way.
It was never.
