After rewarding the shopkeeper, the New Year's Day has officially arrived.
Xiao Han has many friends in Chang'an. Whenever this time comes, gifts are always sent to Chang'an one by one!
Moreover, because Xiao Han gave gifts, he mostly gave things that could not be bought outside, such as top-quality tea, the best spirits, and some weird but extremely practical things.
Therefore, countless officials in the court were proud to receive gifts from the Xiao family.
"Hey? How come this year's gift list belongs to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui?"
In the Xiao family's bedroom, Xue Pan, who was wearing light clothes, couldn't help but ask some strange questions after looking at the list listed by Xiao Han.
Xiao Han is a spineless person, and he hates Xue Pan's outfit! He stared at her for a long time, then swallowed hard, and then said anxiously: "What about the gift of eggs, let's not mention those first.
, let’s do something interesting..."
"Bah! Be more serious!" Xue Pan blushed at Xiao Han's look, spat lightly and said, "Let's get down to business now!"
"What's the matter?!" Xiao Han looked at Xue Pan's reluctant look, rolled his eyes, sat down on the bed and said depressedly.
Xue Pan didn't care about Xiao Han. She took the gift list, shook it in front of Xiao Han, and asked: "Did you write this gift list? Why is it that even Wei Zheng has a New Year's gift this year, but only one is missing it?"
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui?"
"If it's less, then it's less."
Xiao Han scratched his head and said disapprovingly: "Anyway, those two old foxes were stumbling behind my back a while ago. It would be better if I didn't give them gifts, otherwise I would be called a fool by others."
"What two idiots? Who dares to say that?" Xue Pan looked at Xiao Han's appearance and knew that he had committed a petty problem again. He sat next to him with a smile and said: "Besides, they didn't say anything.
What are you talking about? You just proposed that the important weapon of the country cannot be concentrated in one person's hands. Don't everyone in the court agree with this? Even my brother didn't say anything from time to time."
"Anyway, I feel unhappy!" Xiao Hanhan snorted, simply lying on the bed with his arms as pillow.
When Xue Pan saw this, he was both angry and funny!
She stretched out her hand and pulled him, only to find that Xiao Han lay motionless like a little dead pig, and almost fell onto the bed herself.
Xue Pan punched Xiao Han in annoyance, and Xue Pan simply lay down next to Xiao Han, staring with big eyes and said: "And I think what they did is not necessarily a bad thing, at least they let you come back, right? More
Don't tell me, the reason for this is that the thing you made was too powerful and scared them?! If your Majesty's trust is ignored, who can be as good as you?"
"That...that's true."
After all, as a couple, the person who understands you best is always the other half!
Xue Pan's beautiful words were almost sweet to Xiao Han's heart without realizing it! Even his face, which was depressed just now, had a proud smile.
Seeing Xiao Han smile, Xue Pan breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly hit the rails while it was hot: "So, I think our family is not short of that little thing! I heard that these two old men didn't have much savings, so they pointed to the little salary.
To survive, all the money this year has been looted by the Turks, and the salary has not been paid out until now. If you don't give them something, I'm afraid this year will be difficult for them."
By this time, Xiao Han had been coaxed to great joy by Xue Pan! Imagine Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui drinking gruel from a broken bowl at home, and all the resentment in his stomach would have disappeared.
Putting his arms around Xue Pan's slender waist, Xiao Han sniffed the unique fragrance on her body and said, "Okay, let's just treat it as a favor to my precious wife. Wait until tomorrow and ask Butler Lu to prepare a gift to send over."
Xue Pan nodded, his eyebrows turning into crescent moons: "Well, that's pretty much it...ah, annoying!"
I don't know where Xiao Han's claws reached, but Xue Pan's scream followed immediately in the bedroom.
But then, the voice immediately became dull again, as if someone had covered his mouth.
This incident made Xiaoqi, who had just wandered into the backyard, very confused.
I ran over and put my ear to the door panel and listened. I only heard a few strange sounds, like Xiao Han in the room was bullying the hostess who always fed him bones?
"Ouch..."
How can this be achieved? If the mistress is bullied, who will feed it bones? So, the little Qi Lang, who is "eager to protect the master", howled and opened the door with his claws. After finally opening the door a crack, it
Just as he was about to poke his head in, a hard-soled boot hit him.
"Ouch..."
After being hit hard on the head, Xiaoqi immediately screamed and ran away with his tail between his legs without even thinking about saving his mistress!
Behind him, Xiao Han yelled angrily: "Silly dog, I will stew you and eat your meat sooner or later!"
However, Xiao Han has shouted this sentence countless times! It is estimated that if it is true, even if Xiao Qi has ten dog lives, it will not be enough to cause such a disaster.
The days passed peacefully and interestingly like this. When the time came to the last few days of the year, the flavor of the Tang Dynasty became more and more prominent.
Xiao Han's school at Zhuangzi finally had a holiday, and the children who had been holding back for almost a year were like wild horses that had been let loose, running around in groups in the Zhuangzi.
For a moment, the whole Zhuangzi was in a state of uproar!
In the hands of these naughty children, the three tyrants of the countryside, the rooster, the goose, and the yellow dog, lost their former arrogance.
Even when I go out and walk on the street, I don't dare to call out at will, for fear that a bunch of little evil stars will rush out from somewhere, catch them, and pluck out the hair on their tails.
Except for the crazy children, the adults stopped working at this time.
In Xiao Han’s words: After a busy year, it’s time to take a good rest.
The industrial zone is on annual holiday, and various new workshops are also taking holidays one after another.
The women in Zhuangzi began to busy preparing New Year dishes, steamed buns.
Men, on the other hand, swept the courtyard, posted Spring Festival couplets, and decorated their small homes with joy.
As the center of Zhuangzi, Xiao Mansion had already been cleaned up by Butler Lu's instructions. Even the stone lion erected at the door had been splashed with water three times, so clean that even the undersides of its paws were spotless.
Under the eaves of the door, the pair of bright red lanterns with the word "happiness" were removed and replaced with new lanterns with the word "fu", which means that in the new year, they will be full of blessings.
On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, when all the preparations for the New Year were in place, the last good news of the Wude Year came from Chang'an.
King Luo Yi of Yan was defeated and killed!
This rebellion, which was like a farce, did not cause too much trouble after all.
I heard from the messenger that Yuchi Gong and Changsun Wuji who went forward did little, and Luo Yi's generals had surrendered one after another. In the end, the poor King Yan was left alone, and his head was beheaded by Yuchi Gong. Starry Night
