"Hey, okay, okay, everyone. Come into the house quickly. There are charcoal fires burning inside to take away the cold air and eat some cakes."
As soon as he entered the house, he got up and wanted to run to his room to ask for the red envelope, but Grandma Yan held it down: "I have prepared it for you. Here, Brother Jue wrapped it."
As she spoke, Grandma Yan took out a stack of red envelopes from her pocket, which she specially prepared for the wet nurse, knowing that she had not thought of handling so many children.
Jiao Zhongjue didn't say anything when he saw it. I accepted this white lie. I just felt that grandma was too careful.
Seeing that the maid wanted to provide them with bowls and chopsticks, Grandma Yan quickly explained: "We just had dinner at Duke Shun's Mansion, that's why we asked the wet nurse to wait for so long."
"Soon, soon, I know Brother Jue will definitely come back, and everyone is waiting to have New Year's Eve dinner with him and watch the New Year together."
"Why did you wait so long? Brother Jue, please go and join us quickly. Don't keep everyone waiting."
Hearing what the nanny said, Grandma Yan was also very moved. Because the nanny had rescued Brother Jue and worked so hard to find him, and now she treated him like her own child, she also took it and handed it over. chopsticks.
He also called some children who couldn't eat at all: "Children, please sit down. We will have a New Year's Eve dinner at Jue County Prince's Palace with brother Jue, nanny and the others."
Everyone was not polite. Although their stomachs were still full, they all sat together and tasted a few more bites. It was like having another New Year's meal at the Juejun Prince's Mansion.
Due to their arrival, the wet nurse asked the maid to go out and light a lot more lanterns. The bright red lanterns made the originally very quiet Jueran Garden look more grand during the New Year.
After dinner, Grandma Yan and the nanny sat in front of the brazier and chatted together, while the children were eating melon seeds and playing around.
There was an offering table on the corridor outside the house, which was filled with fruits. When it was close to midnight, the nanny and brother Jue went out to light incense and worship.
Chu Chu followed suit and knelt down beside Brother Jue, and kept mumbling: "Auntie, don't worry, Chu Chu will accompany Brother Jue."
The incense and candles flickered on and off, as if responding to and soothing them.
There was a clear ringing of bells in the distance, and then there was the sound of the clock. It was already midnight.
The crackling sound of firecrackers sounded in all directions in the capital, and the loudest sound was definitely at the door of Juejun Prince's Mansion.
When they were bowing, the two chief attendants had already followed the servants and maids out with firecrackers. Also going out were Erlang, Sanlang and Yaya. Seeing that the young lady didn't need them, Qiuli and August also ran out. .
"New Year arrived."
"Let's set off firecrackers!"
The sounds of New Year greetings and firecrackers outside mix together for a long time, heralding the coming of spring.
"Brother Jue, happy New Year!"
"Grandma, nanny, happy New Year! I hope you live a long life."
"Chu Chu, happy New Year! I hope your life goes well."
"Okay, everyone is fine."
……
Chu Chu and Jiao Zhongjue did not go out. They sat together in front of another brazier. After everyone heard the sound of firecrackers, they greeted each other New Year.
"I used to accompany my mother to watch the New Year's Eve, and my brother Jue would always fall asleep in my mother's arms."
Brother Jue stared at the brazier as he spoke, holding Chu Chu with one hand and flicking the charcoal fire with a stick with the other hand. His expression was very lonely, as if he was reminiscing, but also regretting his ignorance and lack of appreciation at that time.
"Brother Jue was too young at that time. It's okay. My aunt knows your thoughts. She will be very happy to have you staying together."
"Yes, just like now, brother Jue is also very happy to have Chu Chu together."
Jiao Zhongjue shook Chu Chu's extended hand vigorously, and smiled as if he understood something.
Chu Chu added: "We will be fine."
Jiao Zhongjue: "Yes, we will all be fine."
Looking at the two children smiling at each other, the grandma also patted the nanny's hand and said, "Don't worry, everything will move forward."
The nanny also said with tears in her eyes: "Knowing that brother Jue is like this, the princess will definitely be very happy, and the princess will definitely see it."
But the corners of the wet nurse's mouth also curved slightly, and she finally felt relieved.
It wasn't until the sound of firecrackers around them stopped and silence returned again that they each went into the house to rest.
On New Year's Day, it really snowed in Beijing.
Jueran Garden.
In the morning, you can still see sporadic white spots on the branches, and those that fell to the ground have melted.
"Why is there so little snow?"
Chuchu put on her clothes and ran out with Yaya, Qiuli and August. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when she saw that the ground was not wet.
Why is the snow so different from last year?
Chu Chu said angrily: "This snow is too light. Why is there no snow in the morning? It's not fun at all. They say the snow in the North is light, and the snow in the capital is even worse."
Sanlang and Erlang, who followed them and ran out, shook their heads after looking at it: "The snow last year was better. You can catch snow clams and build snowmen. When it comes to snow, our Taohua Village is the most beautiful."
August got stubborn with them: "You haven't seen it. The snow in the North is also very beautiful. When the snow water hits the branches, it immediately turns into ice. You must have never seen it."
The wet nurse who came out didn't stop them from arguing, but said to them softly: "Snow like this is not seen every year in the capital. Now that it's snowing like this, you can just enjoy it secretly.
How many people died last year? "
The wet nurse's voice was low when she said the last words. She might have been thinking of the night she escaped back to Jue County Prince's Mansion. That night, if she hadn't happened to meet Brother Jue and Chu Chu, she might have frozen to death. He was beaten to death.
The children suddenly thought about the bad things that happened in Peach Blossom Village last year, and fell silent, losing interest in watching the snow scene.
But the child's mood is like a July day, changing quickly.
After a while, everyone was happy, because on the first day of the new year, if you say some flattering and congratulatory words, you can receive a big red envelope.
Even though Brother Jue was not very old, he stuffed a big red envelope into each of them, saying that he never returned empty-handed after entering Prince Jue's Mansion.
Even the seven or eight servants stuffed them with small red envelopes. They all looked the same. Brother Jue must have been inspired by Grandma Yan last night and specially prepared this for the servants.
"Fu Bao, come out quickly. Look, there are plum blossoms blooming here again."
A plum blossom that bloomed yesterday was picked by the nanny to make cakes. Jiao Zhongjue was regretting that he could not let Chu Chu see the beautiful scene of blooming flowers in his mother's yard. Unexpectedly, many plum blossoms bloomed today, although they were still a little sparse. It's not very grand, but it adds a lot of vitality to the courtyard.
"Yeah! Really."
"Brother Jue, these red plums look most beautiful against the white snow."
Yaya looked at the tree Chu Chu pointed at and immediately disagreed, saying, "But I still think the pink one is pretty."
