The days that followed became more and more fulfilling, and in the blink of an eye, the Jiang family's two new children were already 20 days old.
The wrinkled skin that was originally complained about by Jiang Zhiyue has become smoother. But as the New Year is getting closer, not everyone is in a smooth mood.
Too much excitement will always have the opposite effect.
The Jiang family and the Wang family watched the villagers busy preparing gifts for visiting relatives and friends during the New Year, but they became idle.
They have no relatives or friends here, and they will miss their homeland when the Chinese New Year comes.
As the Chinese New Year approached, Jiang Zhiyue noticed that her mother's mood became more and more depressed, and she often looked at the lively scenes in the yard in a daze.
Even Zhang Xiaoyan's mood has not been very high these days.
The two of them always wiped away tears when they got together.
Jiang Zhiyue only needed to think for a moment to understand what the two of them were thinking.
Not only the two of them, but also Mr. Jiang Kangde would often sit in the yard and be in a daze. Even Ming Yuanqing, who had always liked liveliness, now had some thoughts of going back.
Jiang Zhiyue sighed, secretly thinking that she could go find out if her uncle's family had arrived here.
On New Year's Eve, Jiang Zhiyue went to the town.
The winter in the south is not as cold as where they lived before, but in the middle of winter, the cold wind blowing on their faces is as biting as ever.
Jiang Zhiyue wrapped herself tightly in the red dress and held a small stove in her hands to keep warm. Her body seemed to be very afraid of the cold. Originally, this temperature was nothing to her.
But when winter came, she discovered that her hand was actually chapped with a thin crack.
Mrs. Zhang took her to the town to buy ointment and applied it for many days before she slowly recovered.
So she didn't dare to be careless at all and wrapped herself up tightly.
The oxcart came to the town in a swaying manner. The drivers were Jiang Yuqing and Wang Fengshou. Also coming were Bai Yifeng, Ming Yuanqing, Zhang, Sun and Huang Huaihua.
Although their relatives and friends are not here, this is their first year here, so they naturally have to live a prosperous life in order to have good luck in the coming year.
When they arrived at the town, they divided into several groups.
Jiang Zhiyue was going to inquire about her uncle's family, and Zhang and the others were going to buy things. Bai Yifeng only said that he had something to do, and left alone.
Ming Yuanqing looked at them and thought for a while, and finally decided to follow Jiang Zhiyue.
Although she likes livelier places, she has been to this town many times and wandered around. Holding the silver hollow bell in her hand, she followed Jiang Zhiyue's pace.
There is no county government office in the town, so Jiang Zhiyue naturally has no way to go to the county government office to inquire about the news.
Holding the copper plate in her hand, she walked towards the people begging for a living squatting in the corner of the town, wanting to get some information from them first.
"Miss Ginger!"
After taking just two steps, Jiang Zhiyue was stopped by a familiar and slightly surprising voice. Jiang Zhiyue and Ming Yuanqing stopped and turned to look, it was Li Wen's chubby face.
Li Wen's face was particularly happy, and he said in surprise: "What a coincidence, Miss Jiang, I met you in the town." Jiang Zhiyue looked behind him, but did not see Ouyang Ming's figure.
She looked back and said, "Why are you here? Where is he?"
Li Wen's voice was still smiling. He took out an envelope from his arms and handed it to Jiang Zhiyue.
"Master is not here. I came here just to deliver a message to Miss Jiang. I didn't expect to meet you here."
Taking out the letter, the smile on Li Wen's face became more sincere and he handed it to Jiang Zhiyue with both hands.
Jiang Zhiyue took the envelope and it felt a little thick. She couldn't help but wonder what was in the letter.
As if seeing her doubts, Li Wen immediately explained: "The storybook written by Miss Jiang has been a great help to the master. Here is the percentage that Miss Jiang deserves."
"Master said that there are a lot of things that need to be prepared for the New Year, so he first asked his subordinates to send the share of this period to the girl."
Jiang Zhiyue nodded slightly and packed the envelope.
Out of the principle of friendship, Ouyang Ming made so much money for her, Jiang Zhiyue said a few words of condolences: "How is he lately?"
Li Wen immediately replied with a smile: "Master is busy with some things. I'm afraid he won't be able to come during the New Year. However, I heard the master talking about Miss Jiang and said that he would bring you a gift for Miss Jiang when he comes back. If Miss Jiang meets you,
What's the trouble? Don't come to the bookstore in town."
Li Wen automatically ignored Ouyang Ming's preparation of gifts and didn't ask him to pass on the message at all, and just went bald.
After talking for a long time, Li Wen lowered his voice and said: "If Miss Jiang encounters any trouble or has anything to find the master, she can go to Bielai Bookstore in the town to spread the news. That jade pendant can allow Miss Jiang to send the master.
People who stay here.”
Jiang Zhiyue's eyes darkened. She remembered that she had just passed by a street and saw a busy shop in front. She raised her eyes and glanced at it, as if it was called "Don't Come to Bookstore".
Li Wen retorted and told everything he could about Ouyang Ming's current situation.
Jiang Zhiyue looked at the talkative Li Wen, wondering if he was also so talkative when he was around Ouyang Ming? He would probably be disgusted by that.
"Thank you."
Jiang Zhiyue suddenly said thank you.
She smiled again and said: "There is indeed something I want to trouble him now. Can you help pass on a message?" Li Wen said respectfully: "Miss Jiang, please tell me, I will convey it to you word for word."
Jiang Zhiyue told Li Wen about finding someone and asked him to tell Ouyang Ming.
With his methods and abilities, even if he does not have the identity of the prince of the opposite sex, he will definitely get more information than she can.
If you leave this matter to him, you will be more likely to find the person.
After all, the whole south is so big. If they just rely on their family to search aimlessly in the sea of people, they still don't know when they will find it.
Li Wen seemed to have other tasks. After he brought the news, he left quickly.
Naturally, Jiang Zhiyue no longer needed to inquire about the news. She took Ming Yuanqing and turned back the same way, planning to find Zhang and the others.
After walking a short distance, Jiang Zhiyue passed by the bustling Bie Lai Bookstore again.
In front of the bookstore, there were many people walking in and out, including many servants and maids.
Not far outside the bookstore, there were several luxuriously decorated carriages parked.
When the servants and maids who entered the bookshop came out, without exception, they had two books in their arms.
Those who came out with books in their arms ran to the carriage happily.
Jiang Zhiyue saw a little maid happily holding two pamphlets and running in front of a carriage.
"Miss, I bought it. I have both copies."
Immediately afterwards, a pair of slender white hands stretched out from the carriage and took the two books. After this wave, the number of people in the bookstore slowly decreased.
