As soon as the time comes, the sound of "cracking" firecrackers is heard one after another in Wangjiacun, which indicates that the old year has passed and the new year has arrived.
This year is 1041, the second year of Kangding in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Hearing the sound of firecrackers coming from outside, they also brought the iron basin from the morning, lit the fire and put the bamboo in it. After a while, the sound of crackling firecrackers could be heard...
At the same time, the firelight reflected on the faces of Su Yixin and Gu Qingjue.
The dancing candlelight made Gu Qingjue's eyes flicker. He looked across the firelight at Su Yixin, who had a happy face across from him.
At this moment, he secretly vowed in his heart that every year in the future, he would be able to be with Su Yixin, and every year in the future, he would see her smile so happily and pure.
After the firecrackers were set off, Li Zhengzhen took Gao Ge to the bamboo forest.
Gu Qingjue took Su Yixin to the study.
Su Yixin hadn't been to the study room for several days. She didn't know that Gu Qingjue had decorated the study room so festively. The hot couch was still burning. Sitting on it was so warm that it made people drowsy.
At this moment, Gu Qingjue handed over a beautiful box: "Yixin, Happy New Year."
The box is rectangular, about one foot long and two inches wide. The box is an ordinary box. It doesn't weigh much in the hand. I don't know what is inside.
"Is this a New Year's gift for me?"
"Well, I prepared it a long time ago. Do you like it?"
What woman doesn't like receiving gifts, Su Yixin naturally also likes it. Under Gu Qingjue's gaze, she slowly opened the box.
The first thing that catches the eye is the scroll. If you look closely, it turns out to be a rolled up painting, tied with a red ribbon into a beautiful bow. It looks very girly.
"open to take a look!"
Su Yixin thought, could it be that Gu Qingjue collected the famous paintings from somewhere? If they were really famous paintings, they would be worth a lot of money. Let’s talk about those wealthy households. Being rich does not only mean real money and silver, but also collections of antique calligraphy and paintings, and authentic works of famous people. Soft gold.
The value is immeasurable.
However, when Su Yixin opened the painting, she saw the scene of her having fun with Gu Qingxi and Gu Qingming in Taolin.
Gu Qingjue's painting skills are outstanding.
Even if the characters are not depicted one to one, she, a layman, can still see that the paintings are lifelike and the characters seem to come alive.
"I like this gift very much."
Although it is not a precious thing, you can tell at a glance that it was carefully thought out. If you had not observed them carefully and memorized their expressions in your mind, you would not have been able to draw such a realistic painting.
From this painting, Su Yixin could feel Gu Qingjue's intentions.
Su Yixin put the painting away, carefully put it into the box, and then into the storage bag. Then she supported her chin with her hands and said to Gu Qingjue, "You prepared a gift, but I forgot to prepare it. What should I do?"
Gu Qingjue looked at Su Yixin's rolling eyes in a funny way.
I don't know, this is just to tease him.
If she wants to make trouble, he will make trouble with her.
"Since Yixin forgot to prepare a New Year's gift for me, why not give me another gift?"
"Well, what other gift?"
Gu Qingjue was sitting opposite Su Yixin. After speaking, his slender body slowly approached across the small table in front of him, and his handsome face gradually enlarged in front of Su Yixin.
Su Yixin: "..."
What does Gu Qingjue want to do?
Does it mean KISS?
No! ! !
They are still too young. If they really want to kiss, they will be locked up in a dark room.
Even if she is a handsome man, before she reaches adulthood, she still has to say firmly: No, I don’t want him.
Su Yixin was shouting crazily.
Unfortunately, Gu Qingjue had no intention of stopping. His face came closer and closer, and Su Yixin's heart beat faster and faster. Just when Su Yixin was torn between whether to refuse or to refuse, Gu Qingjue stopped. .
He walked around the small table in front of him, then reached out and pulled off the hair tie that tied her hair, and then gently pulled up her hair.
Su Yixin could feel that there was an extra hairpin on her head.
"Um?"
"This is also a New Year's gift!"
And a New Year gift?
Su Yixin thought that the painting was enough.
Unexpectedly, he also gave her a hairpin, which made Su Yixin embarrassed to tease Gu Qingjue again.
So I took out a box from the storage bag.
The contents of the box were exactly the gentian that Liu Wuyun had chased out of the Liu Mansion and given to her after that day.
Gentian is a very strange thing.
It is a medicinal material and does not need to be used as a separate medicine. It only needs to be boiled with boiling water or directly melted with its five elements of energy to stimulate the medicinal properties and achieve the effect of strengthening muscles and bones.
Even though Gu Qingjue was well-read, when he saw the medicinal materials lying in the box, he didn't recognize what they were for a moment.
"This is gentian. Taking it can temper your bones. It's just right for you to practice swordsmanship."
Gu Qingjue didn't go to collect it immediately.
He looked at Su Yixin and said, "You would interfere in the Liu family's affairs just because she promised this?"
Su Yixin nodded.
Without Gentian, Su Yixin really didn't want to get involved in the Liu family's affairs.
Facts have also proved that the Liu family's affairs are indeed very difficult. If she hadn't had a strong background and an uncle who was in the tribulation period who came over in time, not to mention she and Gu Qingjue would have been in trouble, but she would have given birth to her cousin and Li Zhengzhen Even if they send messages to help, they will be dealt with by the evil Buddha.
It's really thrilling.
Therefore, she wanted this gentian at no loss.
Gu Qingjue looked at Su Yixin intently, with countless emotions intertwined, and finally turned into a deep sigh: "Yixin, you are not allowed to take risks for me in the future."
"knew."
One time is enough for such a dangerous thing, and she would be stupid if she did it next time.
Gentian can be stored for a long time, but tomorrow is the first day of the new year and there is no need to move around. It is the best time for him to absorb gentian. Su Yixin did not go to the kitchen and directly used the energy of the five elements to stimulate the medicinal properties of gentian, and then let Gu Qingjue took it directly.
This thing is hard enough.
Gu Qingjue was such a tolerant person, and when he ate it, his handsome face couldn't help but twist.
It took a while to return to normal.
After eating gentian, Gu Qingjue stood aside, crossed his legs and began to absorb it with his internal strength.
Su Yixin sat aside and helped him protect the law.
The moonlight is shining brightly outside.
Li Zhengzhen and Gao Ge, who were originally in Taolin, sat on the roof in front of them at some point. Seeing the two people's backs getting closer and closer, Su Yixin raised the corners of her mouth.
Judging from the current progress of the two of them, I'm afraid it won't be long before they can enjoy their wedding.
The effect of gentian was so powerful that it was not fully absorbed until dawn.
Gu Qingjue slowly opened his eyes, only to find that the original color of the clothes he was wearing could no longer be seen, and then an indescribable smell spread and entered his nose.
Gu Qingjue: "!!!"
