Several people came to invite the Shen family to stay with everyone.
During this Chinese New Year, Huanxi Courtyard set up a large tent outside. There were also straw curtains with windows hung around the tent to block the wind, which could accommodate the entire courtyard.
When Wu and the others came out, many people were already sitting in the tent.
The Shen family also moved two tables and a dozen stools over, while Shen Qingqian, Shen Qingning and others carried small bamboo baskets containing dried fruits and snacks prepared by the Shen family.
Jiang Goudan and the others also came here today, but they didn’t have any money this year, so they came to join in the fun, but Wu and others were very enthusiastic and invited them to squeeze in at each table and talk to everyone.
"Auntie, aunt, why are you so embarrassed? Let's come here empty-handed..." Jiang Goudan was embarrassed and nervous, and his hands holding the stool tightened.
Old Mrs. Chen smiled and said: "Look what you said, why do you have anything to do with us? Without your help in the past few months, how could we be where we are now?"
"Yes, Xiao Jiang, just sit back and relax, don't mind if our tent is too small." Mrs. Liu answered quickly.
Old Mrs. Wang was more direct than the two of them, "When we take out these things today, how many of them are not the ones we found on the mountain? Then shouldn't you also have a share?"
When we separated from Jiang Goudan and the others, we only gave them whole grains, but nothing like chestnuts.
Under the persuasion of the people in Huanxiyuan, Jiang Goudan and others finally took their seats with peace of mind.
There were nearly twenty tables in the tent, but there were so many people there that it was a bit crowded. The temperature inside the tent gradually became warmer, and it didn't take long for someone to roll up the small window on the straw curtain.
There were stoves burning in the four corners of the tent, and it didn't feel cold at all with so many people inside.
Shen Qingqian was chatting with the Shen sisters and the eldest girls and daughters-in-law from other families, while eating the peanuts Shen Qingning roasted just now.
Not long after, she felt a little thirsty, but she had forgotten to bring her water bag, so she had to stand up and said to Shen Qingman: "Second sister, I'll go back and drink some water first."
After walking out of the big tent, the cold wind hit her face. Shen Qingqian was choked by the cold wind and sneezed. As soon as she covered her mouth, a fox fur appeared on her shoulders.
"It's cold at night, so be careful."
Shengze's voice sounded behind him.
Shen Qingqian subconsciously wanted to pull off the fox fur, but her hand was held down by Shengze.
"Don't be in trouble with your body." After Shengze said this, he removed the hand that was pressing her shoulder.
Shen Qingqian paused for a moment, then finally said thank you, "Thank you, Third Brother Cheng."
After saying that, she continued walking home, listening to the movement behind her, Shengze followed her.
Shen Qingqian's steps slowed down unknowingly. When she reached the door of Shen's courtyard, she suddenly turned around and faced Shengze.
This man's surname was Sheng. He was once one of the most noble people in the Jin Dynasty. He was also a person who could decide countless lives and deaths with just one sentence.
Since knowing Shengze's identity, Shen Qingqian would think of the dead Taifu Shen and the original owner's father every time he saw him. If Taifu Shen had not stood firmly on Shengze's side, he would not have been killed. The Shen family will not be exiled by the whole family.
The original owner had resentment in his heart, and Shen Qingqian himself had anger in his heart. This resentment and anger were intertwined in his heart, and it was inevitable that he would wear colored glasses when looking at Shengze.
But Sheng Ze's performance from beginning to end made Shen Qingqian have to admit that he should be different from other Sheng family members.
"Qianqian," Shengze called in a low voice, "Would you like to hear a few words from me?"
"There will be more later. It is recommended to watch it after twelve o'clock. You can also watch it again tomorrow morning."
