"What about you, do you miss me?" Ling Jiuze asked in a low voice, "Can we video?"

"My grandfather called me!" Su Xi buried her face in the pillow and replied in a muffled voice.

Ling Jiuze was silent for a moment before laughing, "Do you want to give your phone to grandpa? I'll wish you a New Year!"

"Forget it, I'm afraid that the New Year will scare him, he's timid!" Su Xi said in a gentle voice.

"When next year, I will come to my house to greet my grandfather in person." Ling Jiuze said.

"Okay." Su Xi responded, paused for a moment, and said softly, "I'm dead."

"Yes." Ling Jiuze's voice was soft, "Baby, I love you!"

Su Xi's heart was pounding, and she let out a low "um". After a few seconds of silence, she hung up the phone first.

After hanging up the phone, Su Xi realized it later. Ling Jiuze was actually waiting for her to respond to his words for those seconds of silence.

She regretted hanging up the phone without saying anything.

She lay on the bed and turned to look out the window. The weather was very good and the sun was shining. She looked at the lanterns shaking under the eaves, her eyes were dazed, and for a moment, her mind and heart were filled with Ling Jiuze.

He looked at her deep eyes, the way he spoke, the tone of his love for her...

Su Xi closed her eyes and suddenly, she missed him so much!

......

After a while, Su Xi stood up and took a look at the time. It was almost ten o'clock.

She was a little surprised that grandpa didn't even call her.

After washing up, I changed my clothes and went out. I walked through the corridor and saw Grandpa Wu coming over with a pot of red plums. I saw her and smiled, "Miss, you are getting up! Are you hungry? There are chicken soup and dumplings in the kitchen. Let Uncle Xiang cook it for you."

"Yes." Su Xi nodded and looked at the red plum in his hand, "It's blooming?"

"Yes, this pot of red plum blossoms bloomed last night. The master said that the lady likes red plums and asked me to send them to the lady in the room."

"Where is grandpa?"

"The master is in the flower hall."

"How can you be quiet today? Are there no guests to pay New Year's greetings?" Su Xi looked around and felt a little strange. During the Chinese New Year's Day, the guests who visited had to level the threshold.

Mr. Wu smiled and said, "The master has spoken this year. No one is allowed to come to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the New Year, for fear that the lady will not sleep well."

Su Xi felt warm in her heart, "I'll go find grandpa."

"Go, I'll put the red plums in the house for the lady."

"Let me go here, I'll move back by myself later." Su Xi said with a smile.

Mr. Wu shook his head, "No, I can move, Miss, hurry up and go."

Su Xi smiled and nodded, and walked towards the front yard flower hall.

In the flower hall, Mr. Jiang was drinking tea and playing chess. When he heard Su Xi call him grandpa, he looked back and grinned.

Su Xi stood at the door, wearing a light blue long skirt, with a cloak of the same color outside. The snow-white fluff on the hat surrounded her little face, delicate facial features, and smiling eyes. A red plum blossom outside the corridor leaned over and fell between her eyebrows and eyes, as if there was a festive atmosphere of the New Year.

Old Jiang waved to her, "Get up so late, why don't you come here quickly!"

Su Xi smiled and said, "Grandpa, happy new year!"

Mr. Jiang took out two red envelopes and handed them to her, "The New Year's money Aheng and I gave you was specially explained when Aheng talked with me before."

Su Xi walked over and opened the red envelopes from Mr. Jiang and Si Heng. The two of them agreed and gave them all receipts from Jinyu International Jewelry Store.

Since she came to the Jiang family, every year during the Chinese New Year, Mr. Jiang and Jiang Siheng would save her a treasure in Jinyu Jewelry as a New Year gift, which may be a top-quality jade, a peerless ancient painting, or a priceless antique...

These receipts were packed in a mahogany box, and they were already stacked.

Mr. Jiang said that when Su Xi gets married in the future, these will be her dowry.
