Because Rhubarb occupied Chiba and Lingyu, the Qin family and Xiaocao were affectionately next to the noble concubine, and the family leaned together to talk in harmony.

The noble concubine asked the Qin family, "Will you celebrate the New Year in Beijing this year?" ”

"Yes. We want to celebrate the New Year with our sister. During the Chinese New Year, it has to be crowded to be lively. "It's already the sixth day of the lunar month, and there is less than a month before the New Year, and the Qin family came back with Xiaocao at this time, so he didn't plan to go back at the end of the year.

Xiao Nuan asked, "Then how to arrange the ancestor worship in our clan?" ”

Xiaocao replied, "There was a big sacrifice on the winter solstice, and we didn't come back until after the big sacrifice." ”

…… Well, in order to come back and celebrate the New Year with the concubine, the mother even advanced the time to offer incense to the ancestors of the Qin family, Xiao Nuan covered her mouth with a smile.

"Oh, my little ancestors!" Qin Shi shouted, and walked quickly to the small bed next to him.

Xiao Nuan turned her head to look, but it turned out that Chiba and Lingyu had worked hard and finally climbed onto Rhubarb's body, and they didn't know whether to grab Rhubarb's hair or gnaw on it. When the Qin family and the noble concubine picked up the two little ones one by one, they also grabbed the dog hair on their four hands.

While wiping his granddaughter's hands, Qin felt sorry for the rhubarb, "Does the rhubarb hurt?" ”

"Huh." Rhubarb's voice was tinged with pleasure, and he patted the edge of the bed with his tail.

"Whew~"

"Whew~"

Chiba and Lingyu followed with milky voices, obviously overjoyed.

Xiao Nuan grabbed her daughters' little hands fiercely, slapped them one of them, and said, "Don't grab the rhubarb hair, let alone gnaw it, otherwise you won't be allowed to play with the rhubarb in the future, you know?" ”

"Wang!" Rhubarb was a little anxious when he saw the little warm murderous child.

"Ang~"

"Ang~"

Chiba and Lingyou followed, and their four black grape-like eyes stared straight at Rhubarb, not paying attention to what their mother said.

The concubine scolded with a smile, "These two little things, when they taught them to call grandma and father, they didn't learn so diligently, but the voice of rhubarb can be learned as soon as they are learned." ”

Xiao Nuan blocked Rhubarb behind her, and when the two little ones were not allowed to look at her, Xiao Nuan warned again, "Remember?" ”

Although the children are only eight months old, Xiao Nuan knows that they can already understand some words. If they can't stop them from scratching and biting the rhubarb, Xiao Nuan is not at ease, and the third master will not allow them to play with the rhubarb.

"Whew~"

"Whew~"

Chiba and Lingyou responded in unison, and Xiao Nuan asked the mother and mother to put them on the bed again, and the two little ones immediately climbed towards Rhubarb at their fastest speed like a 100-meter sprint.

When they finally caught the rhubarb, Xiao Nuan emphasized it again, and then she was satisfied to find that the two little ones were lying on the rhubarb body and hugging its neck and its waist, without scratching or biting.

Xiaocao began to feel sorry for Rhubarb again, "Rhubarb, do they hurt you?" ”

"Huh." Rhubarb patted his tail, raised his head and sniffed the two little ones on his body, his eyes were soft and could melt into water.

"Rhubarb really likes Chiba and Lingyou, there are so many children in the village, I haven't seen anyone he likes so much." Qin Shi exclaimed.

Xiaocao added, "Even its own child, Rhubarb, doesn't like it so much. ”

The concubine was surprised, "Rhubarb has a child?" ”

Xiaocao proudly added, "In our village, and in the village east of the fourth village, half of the dogs are rhubarb. ”

The noble concubine looked at Rhubarb, who was playing happily with her two granddaughters on the bed, and proposed, "Why don't you add more cubs to Rhubarb next year, pick two and bring them back, and let them grow up with Xiaoye and Xiaoyou?" ”

What the noble concubine said, the Qin family would never object, but this matter has to listen to rhubarb. Qin discussed with Rhubarb, "Rhubarb, come back with two puppies next year and raise them, okay?" ”

Rhubarb lay on the bed with his dog's eyes squinted, pretending not to hear.

The noble concubine smiled, "Rhubarb probably doesn't understand." ”

It understands it, and that's what it means to disagree. Listen, concubine," Xiaocao coughed and discussed with Rhubarb, "Rhubarb, let's raise a few more litters of rabbits in the yard next year, okay?" ”

"Whew!" Rhubarb immediately opened his eyes and agreed.

Gui Tai Fei ......

Is the average dog so smart? Is this a dog in general?

After lunch, the two children and Xiaocao slept, and Xiao Nuan nested in bed with his mother, Nuan Nuan talked about what happened in this section.

Qin asked, "Why didn't you see Qingxin?" ”

"He stayed in Pingxi Yanniao Mountain, and said that he would repair the mausoleum for Yang Runqing and come back next year."

After Yang Runqing died, he was buried in the ancestral tomb of the Yang family in Yanniao Mountain, and last year Emperor Jianlong asked Cheng Wujie to send someone to dig up the ancestral tomb of the Yang family, and Yang Runqing's bones were scattered to ashes, so now he doesn't even have a grave.

Qingxin looked cold, he didn't expect to be such a affectionate person. The Qin family was silent for a long time, "If you don't say that people have to do good deeds and accumulate virtues, if Yang Runqing hadn't saved Qingxin, no one would have repaired the grave with him and burned paper now." ”

After chatting about Xiao Nuan's journey to Pingxi, Xiao Nuan asked about her mother's Nanshan Pass, and the Qin family told Xiao Nuan about the past few months.

Nanshan Pass has a prosperous business, and Xiao Nuan is happy; The Bai family and the Pi family did not dare to provoke their mothers again, and Xiao Nuan was happy; Qin Rizhan fights with Pi every day, and Xiao Nuan is happy; Uncle Qin's family moved to the deserted border city distributed by the Zhang family, and Xiao Nuan was even happier.

Hearing that her mother didn't mention Li Xiran's matter, Xiao Nuan laughed secretly in her heart, and fell asleep after listening.

Later, after Qin took Xiaocao back to the fourth village to pack her luggage and settle down, Xiaocao held her sketch and ran to find Li Housheng.

Now that it's cold, Xiaocao didn't go to the edge of the bamboo fence to call people, but took a detour to the gate and paid an official visit.

When he saw Li Xiran, Xiaocao saluted in a proper manner, and asked Lian Nian and Youyu to hand over the gifts they brought from Nanshan Pass, "Uncle came back early, and he didn't catch up to eat the delicious food we had over there in winter, so we specially wrapped some for you and the two brothers." If you don't do anything, just make a tooth sacrifice, Uncle wants to like something, and let's go to Nanshan Pass to eat together next year. ”

Li Xiran looked at the big bags of food and smiled, "Are you celebrating the New Year in Beijing this year?" ”

Xiaocao nodded vigorously, "Uh-huh! ”

Li Housheng was very happy when he heard this, "In this way, our first book will be engraved this winter!" ”

"Well, Xiaocao has already contacted the bookseller, and I have thought of a few names, have you thought about it?"

"There are also booksellers who come to the door to talk to the foolish brother about engraving." Li Housheng said.

Xiaocao clapped, "Then call them all over, see which one is of good quality and gives us more money, let's use which!" ”

Li Housheng nodded and asked Xiaocao to go to his study to talk in detail. In the hall, Li Xiran, who opened the gift box and ate snacks, seemed to be in a good mood.

Li Si was also happy for the master, and gave the master an idea, "Master, you might as well ......"

"Shut up." Li Xiran didn't want this guy to ruin his good mood for eating.

Li Si closed his mouth, extremely aggrieved.
