A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and the New Year's Eve of Qicheng's tenth year finally arrived.

On this night, when it comes to Ning'an Hou Mansion, the whole country of Zhao is decorated with flowers and beaming with joy. Even the poor people's houses, as long as they have a tile to cover their roofs, will be draped in red and green, decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, to welcome the New Year.

As usual, high-ranking officials and dignitaries had lunch in the palace. The emperor held a grand banquet to celebrate with his ministers. In the evening, it was the time for family reunion, and the Wen family was no exception. Because of the small population, in addition to the extremely busy kitchen,

The servants who had worked hard for a year set up a few tables in the hall in the front yard, while the masters were all in the large flower hall of the back house, with men and women sitting at a full table. There were only a few smart people left next to them.

The girl waits.

Everyone said privately that my aunt was extra generous this year, and the dishes were richer than in previous years. This was the first time since Mrs. Huo passed away that she was so willing to spend money. According to the information revealed by the mother in charge, the red envelopes were also very generous, and one person even gave out

Two new clothes.

In fact, even Hanqiao was also puzzled as to why Mr. Hou suddenly had a lot of money and never bothered to do anything.

Wen Ningzhi, on the other hand, was very calm. He was very familiar with selling anything to gain glory and wealth. Besides, that man was also afraid that the emperor would be angry if he found out, so he made an extremely clever arrangement. He got benefits without any risks, and had no psychological burden.

.As for conscience and righteousness, is there such a thing in this world?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Liuli sitting opposite.

Unlike his two daughters, Liuli didn't even wear bright red or purple clothes during the Chinese New Year. She only wore a dark pink side-breasted jacket and a cinnamon green horse-faced skirt. Her hair style was also simple. She didn't have the big hairpin that the ladies of Zhao liked.

The kind of rich peonies, but a small bunch of small pale pink and gold silk flowers, paired with an emerald hair comb and a small butterfly-shaped gold hairpin. Not gorgeous, but golden.

And this girl looks good, has a good temperament, is calm and confident, and is more majestic than a princess. She doesn't talk much, but her waist is straight. In this way, she is really eye-catching. No wonder, His Royal Highness Prince Jin and

The Prince of Linshan County was fascinated by her. Unfortunately, she was not his biological daughter, which caused him to reap a lot of benefits.

But as a woman, whoever you marry doesn't matter. Speaking of it, Linshan County Prince is a big gold mountain. He is a good-looking and idle county prince, and he will not be involved in the battle to win the rightful son in the future, so he will be a better candidate. In this way

Look, he helped her. He was such a good adoptive father. If he hadn't been the one who asked for Liuli, he would have wanted to send Yiyun there.

"Thank you, Mr. Marquis, for your hospitality and care these days." After drinking for three rounds, Shui Shiqiao stood up, raised his glass to Wen Ningzhi and said, "Today I will borrow flowers to offer to Buddha, without saying anything. My nephew is full of drinks, Hou

You can do whatever you want." As he said that, he finished the glass of wine.

Ning'an Houfu is a scholarly family, and the drinking utensils are very small. For Shui Shiqiao, such a drink is just a smudge on the lips. But he has a heroic posture, and is wearing a sapphire blue robe trimmed with sable fur. His whole body is neat and even more...

Her eyes were bright and her smile was hearty, which was really charming. Liuli sitting next to him didn't seem to be doing anything bad, while Wen Yiyun's eyes across from him had become watery, and she couldn't help but peek.

Liuli looked a little unhappy when she saw it, as if someone was thinking about her things.

"What are you talking about? We are all one family. Wouldn't it be unfair?" Wen Ningzhi smiled warmly. He really had the demeanor and aura of the head of the family.

"My nephew is not just talking about it casually." Shui Shiqiao said with a smile, "It's just the first month of the year, and my nephew wants to buy a house in Tokyo and bring his sister to live with him. I have a lot to say today.

This is where I say thank you in advance."

Wen Ningzhi was surprised, "You live well, why do you want to leave?"

"That's right." Wen Yiyun answered quickly, "We have few people in the Hou Mansion and so many empty courtyards. Brother Shui can live here for as long as he wants, so why buy a property? Besides, in this way, it will be difficult to see the second sister.

How can it be better than living in one place every day?" It wasn't that she couldn't bear to leave Liuli, but she knew that once Liuli moved away, it would be difficult to see Shui Shiqiao again.

When she first met Shuishi Qiao, she was fascinated by his heroic spirit. He was the kind of man she had never seen before. He was not ostentatious or luxurious, but he was like a treasure hidden deep in the stone, containing inexplicable charm and charm.

People feel the power of safety. However, she thought that he had been wandering around the world for many years and it was difficult to see him again, so she changed her direction and had some unclear things with Wang Jia Qi Lang. Who would have thought that Brother Shui would not only come back

Now, she has the intention of living in Tokyo for a long time. How can her little heart not be moved by the spring breeze?

Others didn't know what she meant, but Wen Zhiyun understood it very well. Unfortunately, Wen Yiyun spoke too quickly and she didn't stop her. After the new year, she was going to get married in July, but she didn't want anything to happen at this time and delay her wedding. She

She hates this place and wishes she could live her own little life as soon as possible. But her mother’s family cannot be defeated, otherwise she will have no way to rely on her. Seeing that her second brother is so stupid that he can’t even attend the family dinner on New Year’s Eve, the eldest brother is unpredictable.

Yes, if this sister causes trouble again, it will be the end!

Furthermore, it would be too embarrassing for the Wen family to persuade a young man to stay in front of his father and brother! Even if he wanted to stay as a guest, it was his father and eldest brother's turn. When would it be Yiyun's turn? It was too unruly.

In fact, Wen Ningzhi and Wen Hongxuan were also embarrassed. In order to cover up, Wen Ningzhi had to say, "Yiyun is right. We live well, so why bother moving around? Besides, Liuli is me.

Just like a biological daughter."

Shui Shiqiao smiled and said, "This time when I came to Beijing, although the emperor hadn't summoned me yet, he sent someone to issue an oral edict. It meant that he wanted me to set up the headquarters of the Cao Gang in Tokyo. It seemed that he wanted to give me some time to relax.

The title. In this way, I will have to stay here permanently in the future. It is more convenient to have my own house. Guests come and go, colleagues get together and so on... I am embarrassed to cause trouble to the Hou Mansion. As for Liuli, after all

She is my biological sister. I used to bother her adoptive father when I was away. Now that I am going to stay in Tokyo, it is better for her to stay with me until she gets married. Then the person I am used to will also come with her.

, I am familiar with Liuli, and she has someone to restrain her wild nature, so that you will not indulge her too much, and she will become more lawless in the future." His words were reasonable and comprehensive, making it impossible to refute.

Liuli showed a little joy. Although she had heard Shitou talk about it before, she was still very happy to hear him talk about it with her own ears.

When she looked like this in the eyes of other people at the table, they felt that she was living in the Wen family. Is she living under someone else's roof, or was she willing to live with her brother? It was consistent with her emotions and reasons. She was just thinking about everyone sitting here.

Each is different.

Wen Ningzhi was happy. Since he had agreed to the man's condition and wanted to pursue Liuli, although he was not vague in doing things, he was somewhat tangled in his heart. Just like he got rid of three former pillows without hesitation.

He is a human being, but he has to beat himself up from time to time to repent. The pain on his body can help him relieve his inner weakness. But when the glass no longer dangles in front of his eyes, he won't remember how much he is not a human being. It's good!

Auntie Hanqiao has been silent, but she is actually very unhappy with Liuli leaving. The Marquis cannot sell slaves for no reason, this is the rule set by the Marquis. When Liuli was here, she assigned a large number of useless people to serve Liuli.

But she paid those losers monthly money by herself, which saved her a lot of money. But Liuli was leaving. She would definitely not take those burdens with her. She still had to bear these burdens herself.

Wen Zhiyun is as happy as her father. Because Liuli leaves, Shui Shiqiao will leave, and Yiyun will not have any whimsical plans for men. After all, Liuli is her sworn sister in name. If anything happens in the future, she will definitely have to reach out. Can they not treat each other?

We hate each other, but we can still help when something happens, so why not?

Of course, Wen Yiyun firmly opposed it. At this moment, he was so worried that he was about to cry. He didn't know what to do. Brother Shui was leaving! But listen to what he said. He wanted to find a house after the first month, clean it up, and then move out. In that case

, at least three months, right? Does she want Brother Shui to be interested in her during this period? Or, she confesses directly? She knows that she is not beautiful, but after all, she has a good background and is the legitimate daughter of the Hou family.

Brother, water distribution will be helpful to his future, right? If he is smart, he will not fail to consider this!

Wen Hongxuan's thoughts were very complicated. He was surprised to find that he was suddenly reluctant to let Liuli go, even though he didn't have much communication with her when she was in the Hou Mansion. He subconsciously pressed his chest, and the one she dropped

His wallet was right there, making him a little restless. In Tokyo, too many women liked him. He did a lot of dirty things in private, and he had the ability to make those women willingly keep secrets for him. But he... didn't seem to...

She knows how to like others, and she never leaves anyone behind. As a woman, she can put on and take off her clothes as freely as she wants. But what's going on now?

Everyone at the table, except Liuli and Shui Shiqiao, had their own thoughts. Although they seemed to be like-minded and politely tried to persuade them to stay, Shui Shiqiao was very determined and his demands were reasonable, so everyone else just let it go. Wen Ningzhi also mentioned that on the first day of the new year this year, the Wen family

The sisters and Liuli were going to the palace to pay their respects, so they gave the three of them detailed instructions. Wen Zhiyun also told them about the palace rules and dress that they had learned about a few days ago.

After the party was over, Shui Shiqiao knew that Liuli would go out before dawn tomorrow and wait in line to enter the palace, so he urged her to go to bed. It could be said that he escorted her back to the house. Because Liuli had stayed up late to redo her purse in the past two days,

She was indeed very tired, so she loosened her hair, took off her outer clothes and shoes, and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow, until the sound of firecrackers at midnight woke her up.

She did not dress up immediately, but walked out of the house with her long hair loose and a cloak on her head. She looked up at the fireworks and the flash of firecrackers flying into the sky, and her heart was up and down. Sister, you are like beautiful fireworks, blooming so brightly.

It passed, but it fell into darkness too quickly.

"Liu Li, I'm here." Shui Shiqiao's voice sounded from beside him.

He had been waiting outside the door, waiting for the moment to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, and he was determined to spend it with her.
