    During the family reunion dinner on New Year¡¯s Eve, my father asked his servants to set up a table in a pavilion by the lake, hang lanterns, and put some lotus lanterns in the lake.  At night, my father, Aunt Song and several younger sisters were sitting together. Aunt Guo and Aunt Du were not worthy enough, so they stood and waited on them.

    My father said: "I asked the kitchen to make several types of dumplings including fresh vegetables, cabbage, and shepherd's purse. Some of them are filled with golden beans. You have to be careful when eating them." My father's handsome face had a bright look. He had been having an unpleasant quarrel with his mother a few days ago. He had already seen it.  Not coming out.

    Jin Chao shook his head secretly. Gu Xi was only eight years old. What if he accidentally swallowed the dumplings? His father really didn't think much about it.

    Gu Lan smiled and said, "This is a good thing. Whoever gets the golden bean will have a smooth life next year."

    As a result, everyone got golden beans after eating them, and Jin Chao got two more, which he put in his purse first.

    After eating the dumplings and vegetable banquet, desserts were served in the kitchen. Pastries such as frozen pears, date paste cakes, persimmons, white sugar pear cakes, etc. were all served on high cups and porcelain plates.  Jin Chao stood up and said, "Father, eat first, and my daughter will probably have to leave first."

    As soon as she stood up, Gu Lan immediately looked at her, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were hard to read.

    Aunt Song sat next to Jin Chao and gently shook her hand.  He smiled and said, "Sister Chao, do you have anything to do? Can you please take it easy? It's not a good idea to leave early" It's unlucky to leave early for the New Year's Eve dinner.

    Jin Chao smiled and said, "I just think that my mother is still alone in the house, and I want to stay with her."

    When her father heard what she said, he couldn't help but nodded: "She can't catch the wind. It's boring to be alone in Xiexiao Garden. You might as well go and accompany her."

    Gu Jinrong looked at her, as if he wanted to say something, but turned his head aside to look at the lotus lanterns in the lake. The cool breeze blew in at night, and the lotus lanterns floating on the lake looked very beautiful.  Jin Chao came down from the banquet with Qing Pu and looked back at the lotus lantern.

    Lotus lantern

    The year she first arrived at the Chen family, Mr. Chen held a Lantern Festival Lantern Festival at the Chen family.  Chen Xuanqing prepared a lake of lotus lanterns for Yu Wanxue, which slowly flowed into the lake from a distant stream like a bright galaxy, making all the lights at the lantern festival eclipse.  At that time, she only thought that Chen Xuanqing had a restrained personality and did not like to show off. She did not know that he truly cared for someone and could actually hurt that person to the core.

    Seeing others feel uncomfortable as if there is sand in their eyes, she is the one who feels uncomfortable.  It turned out that wanting to just look at this man and the immense pain I endured while looking at him were completely different things.  Later, when everyone dispersed, she asked the girl to hold her hand, carefully leaned down and picked up a lamp, and kept it in her study.  She held the stolen lamp, her heart beating a little fast, as if he really gave it to her.

    ¡­Fortunately, it¡¯s all over.  Seeing his mother's Xixiao Garden right in front of him, Jin Chao smiled.

    Mother was not asleep yet. Mother Xu helped her wipe her face and hands. The whole room was filled with the weak warm light of candles. Because no one spoke, it seemed particularly deserted.

    Jin Chao remembered the laughter and laughter in the pavilion just now.

    Hearing her arrival, her mother looked very happy when she raised her head and invited her to sit next to her. She couldn't help scolding her: "You dare to leave the New Year's Eve dinner so early!" Jin Chao leaned his head on his mother's arms and acted coquettishly.  : "How can we have a New Year's Eve dinner without a mother?"

    He then took out his purse, opened it with a smile and showed it to his mother: "When I was eating dumplings, I ate two golden beans. I hung them on the curtain for my mother to pray for good weather."

    Mrs. Ji looked at her daughter with a smile, feeling that she still looked like a child.  She asked Mother Xu to ask for red silk thread, tied it into a heart-shaped plum blossom ribbon, and hung it on her mother's curtain. Mrs. Ji also got angry and said, "Would you like to stay with my Jin Chao today?"

    Jin Chao smiled and said: "Of course it's good, but how fun is it to just wait!" He asked Xu's mother to bring a lot of five-color silk threads to play with her mother, and she even pestered her and said, "Mother made the knots."  It¡¯s the most exquisite and beautiful, please give me more!¡±

    Ji smiled helplessly, reached out and picked out a few threads and started playing.  Her knots were indeed very well made. The silk threads were twirled between her fingers. The stick of incense, the upturned stool, the elephant eye block, and Fang Sheng were all formed and lifelike.

    Mother always knows something that she is not good at, Jin Chao thought, it seems that every mother is like this.

    At this time, the girls were also called to gather for the servants¡¯ New Year¡¯s Eve dinner. Mother Xu was the only one in the room, talking to them, and no one even noticed anyone walking to the door.

    "Mother" It was Gu Jinrong's voice. He walked past the screen, holding a purse in his hand.

    He saw mother and daughter, and Mother Xu looking at him, frowningHe frowned and nodded and said: "Elder sister is well." He watched Gu Jinchao get down from the banquet. He was also thinking about his mother. Because he didn't want to see Jinchao, he came here at the wrong time. He thought she should leave, but she didn't.  Thinking of still being here.

    Seeing that he was holding the navy blue embroidered Suihan Sanyou purse, Ji asked with a smile, "What are you doing here, Brother Rong? Are you also giving golden beans to your mother?"

    Gu Jinrong was quite surprised: "How does mother know!"

    Mrs. Ji pointed to the curtain in the inner room: "That one was given by your sister. You two really thought about it for a while!"

    Gu Jinrong coughed and tightened his grip on his purse. How did he know that Gu Jinchao had this idea too!

    Jin Chao said with a smile: "We are having sex, do you want to come too?"

    Gu Jinrong pursed his lips and said, "No, the second sister invited me to watch the New Year's Eve together!"

    Jin Chao heard the coldness in his words and thought that he was only twelve years old after all, and he couldn't even pretend to be in harmony with her.  Then he said casually: "Then you go."

    Gu Jinrong was about to leave when he saw Jin Chao talking to his mother. He picked up the incision that his mother had made and asked her how she got it done. The side of his face was particularly gentle in the candlelight, and he looked vaguely like his mother.  picture!

    Gu Jinrong suspected that he was wrong. Jin Chao looked nothing like his mother. She looked more like her grandmother when she was young, as beautiful as a begonia.  But his steps stopped. His mother was ill. Wouldn't it be unfilial for him to abandon her and stay with his second sister?

    He walked forward and said, "Since the eldest sister invited me, I naturally want to spend more time with my mother!" He called the book boy to reply to Gu Lan and couldn't say anything else.

    Mother Xu smiled when she saw his awkward expression, and brought more silk threads to the mother and daughter. After playing with the strings for a while, Jin Chao asked him to go to the kitchen cellar to get white radish on a whim.

    Mrs. Ji was very confused: "What are you doing with that thing!"

    Jin Chao smiled and said nothing.  When the radish was brought over, she asked for a knife for twisting wire and carved the radish nimbly.

    ¡°Now not only Ji and Mrs. Xu, but also Gu Jinrong could not take their eyes off it.  Jin Chao's fingers were nimble, and in a short while he carved out a figure of Chang'e flying to the moon, with a jade rabbit in her arms. Chang'e was lifelike, with open-sleeved feathers and flowing silk.

    Mrs. Ji didn¡¯t know that Jin Chao had such a skill, so she was amazed: ¡°My Jin Chao¡¯s skills are so skillful!¡±

    Jin Chao played with the knife and said: "The shadows of candles are deep on the mica screen, and the stars are gradually setting on the long river. Chang'e should destroy and steal the elixir, and the blue sea and blue sky are in my heart every night." A trace of loneliness suddenly flashed in her heart.  Chang'e regretted stealing the elixir, and the blue sea and blue sky made her heart wander every night. Did she also say that?

    It was she who harmed Yu Wanxue¡¯s child, so she was trapped in a small courtyard and died of illness alone!

    After Yu Wanxue lost power in her previous life, she often came to see her in the courtyard.  After she had a miscarriage, she was unable to give birth to a child. Chen Xuanqing took another concubine. She felt lonely alone, so she came to Jinchao to talk to her and bring many things.  This man was indeed pure-hearted and treated her very well. He was so blinded by jealousy that he actually harmed her like this!

    But Ji said: "It's a pity. This thing would be good for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Now on New Year's Eve, it would be better for me to carve a unicorn for auspiciousness."

    Jin Chao came to his senses and waved his hands quickly: "Then I can't do it anymore, my daughter can only carve Chang'e!"

    Gu Jinrong, however, focused his attention on the eldest sister. Did he see it wrong just now? Why did he feel that Gu Jinchao's expression was lonely?

    It was said that she was staying up late on New Year's Eve, but my mother went to bed first because she was weak and sleepy.  Jin Chao and Gu Jinrong were speechless. At this time, the girls were back, so they asked Mo Yu to bring a game of Go. Jin Chao smiled and said, "Sister, I can play chess with you to relieve your difficulties!"

    Gu Jinrong didn't believe that she was a good chess player. After a few games, she was defeated. Jin Chao also readily admitted: "I'm a dabbler, so I'll just play these few games with you." He then said, "You should go back first. We'll have to play again tomorrow morning."  For those who worship ancestors, it¡¯s good for my sister to stay here.¡±

    She admitted it so readily, but Gu Jinrong felt that she was free and easy. After a moment of silence, he said: "It will be good if you know it." He meant well, but you know that Gu Lan doesn't do this.  But after saying this, I felt that it was not a good thing to say, and I didn¡¯t know how to explain it.

    When he left Xiexiao Garden, he looked back and suddenly felt that maybe this sister was not what outsiders said, nor what Gu Lan said. She gave herself a very strange feeling, which she couldn't explain clearly.

    There was a little girl waiting for him outside, and he recognized it as Hibiscus next to his second sister.  She smiled and saluted and said, "our second lady is still waiting for you."

    Gu Jinrong frowned, a little distressed and a little reproachful: "Second sister is still waitingshe is really so late!" But he quickly walked towards Cuixuanyuan.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Website: www.hlnovel.com
