Chapter 362 It's New Year's Eve

In the flames of war, New Year's Eve has arrived.

Because the late emperor was in mourning, the governor's mansion only had a simple family banquet, without firecrackers, music and dancing.

After the banquet, the three sisters Xu Yin and Princess Changning watched the year together.

Xu Si and Xu Jia sat and played chess opposite each other, while Xu Yin watched from the side, sometimes saying this was wrong, and sometimes saying that was wrong, the two sisters couldn't take it anymore, they drove her away together.

"Go, go, don't you understand if you watch chess?"

"That's right, you interrupted my train of thought."

"I just made a move, and I didn't force you to listen."

"Anyway, you shut up and go!"

Xu Yin walked away awkwardly, seeing Princess Changning sitting by the window and smiling.

She sat across from the princess and touched a handful of peanuts to peel them.

"What is the princess laughing at?"

"It turns out that you are quite annoying at home." Princess Changning said, "I thought you were so steady, everyone must listen to you."

Xu Yin smiled: "What is prudent, I learned it later."

She has been a bully for more than ten years, causing trouble everywhere every day.The later stability was bought through ten years of blood and tears in the previous life.

But Xu Yin didn't say much, seeing Princess Changning's heartbroken, she must be very sad.

If there is no accident, she is also annoying in front of her family now, right?But now, all his father and brother died, and he was alone under the fence.

Princess Changning took the peanuts she handed over, ate two in silence, and suddenly asked: "Ayin, did you learn to do these things after the accident with Governor Xu?"

Xu Yin nodded, and poured her another cup of tea.

Princess Changning seemed to have made up her mind, took a sip of tea and said, "Then, you can teach me too, okay?"

Xu Yin was not surprised at all, and asked her: "What does the princess want to learn?"

"You can do whatever you want, as long as you can contribute, not for nothing."

Xu Yin said: "Princess, you know what your identity means to the world, right?"

Princess Changning nodded.Not long after the false emperor killed the king, she is a witness and a banner.

"If you announce your identity, someone will regard you as the master." Xu Yin raised his head, "In this way, although you will become a puppet, no matter who will take over in the future, you will not be able to escape with your title."

"I know. When I came back with you, I thought about it. If your family wants me to be the flag, then I will be it, as long as I can get revenge."

Xu Yin smiled and shook his head: "It's good to have this flag, and the teacher is famous, but at the same time, there will be a lot of constraints. You think we don't disclose your identity for protection, but in fact we don't want to have this trouble. So you see, give up Obtaining this status is your biggest concession, not to mention supporting you for a lifetime, no matter how much you pay, it is worth it, and it is not a waste of money."

Princess Changning couldn't help laughing: "I know you are comforting me. If your family doesn't want to get into this trouble, just don't save me in the first place. The kindness of saving my life will never escape."

She paused, and said sincerely: "Ayin, I don't feel that I feel bad because I depend on others, but I really want to do something. I was born with a noble status, and I never thought about whether the wealth I enjoy should be right. This time The experience made me think a lot.”

She looked up at the boundless night outside the window: "In the world, if you can only eat, drink and play, what is the use in the world? Look at the suffering in this world. I escaped all the way from the capital and saw many people without food and clothing. , panic all day long. My father and brother died tragically, but there are many people who are worse than me. They have never even had enough food and clothing. In the past ten years, I have been supported by the world, but it has no effect. These people are originally The responsibility of my Gao clan is that we did not do well enough to let them go through this. If I want to do something for them, I should make up for the Gao clan’s debt to the world.”

Xu Yin looked at him with admiration.

Suffering really makes people grow up. The little princess who used to be carefree has such an awareness one day.

Suddenly she stood up and shouted: "Xiao Man, bring the cloak!"

This movement startled Xu Si and Xu Jia, and the two looked at her in surprise: "What are you doing? Are you going out?"

Xu Yin nodded, and while putting on his cloak, he asked Princess Changning: "I'll go to the Salesian Bureau, will the princess come with you?"

Princess Changning nodded happily, and shouted: "Jin Yi, bring me my cloak too."

The two changed into their going-out attire and explained to Xu Huan, "Father, the princess and I went out for a walk to see how the refugee camp, Lonely Garden, Salesian Bureau... these places are."

Brothers Xu Huan and Xu An sat warming themselves by the fire, and nodded upon hearing the words: "Bring more people."

"Yes."

After thinking for a while, he said again: "Don't call me Princess in the future, so as not to be heard."

Xu Yin smiled and said, "Then Miss Gao? Or Ah Chun, okay?"

Princess Changning pursed her lips and smiled, then knelt down to Xu Huan: "Uncle Xu."

Xu Huan nodded with a smile: "It's cold and slippery, be careful."

The two girls came out of the house. It was cold outside, but the air was refreshing.

Before, Princess Changning seldom came out of Qushui Pavilion because of her embarrassing status.Xu Huan's words gave her an identity.From now on, she will be Miss Gao, and she can come and go freely without being restricted.

"Brother, the status of the princess is extraordinary, shall we give up like this?" After they left, Xu An asked.

Xu Huan turned over the slices of toasted buns on the brazier, and said, "Our family doesn't have that kind of background, so we can't afford to raise this flag."

"Isn't there Duke Zhao?"

"The Yan family has already established itself, and there is no need for it anymore."

Xu An half understood, nodded silently.

Xu Huan picked up slices of steamed buns, shared one for himself and one for his younger brother, and exclaimed: "I like to eat this the most when I was a child. I would bake two slices on the stove when I was studying in winter. It just fills my stomach when I am hungry."

The Xu family started late, and Xu An experienced those days.Although it is not considered poor, the family is still struggling to provide for their brothers to study.

He smiled and said, "I always steal food while my elder brother is not paying attention, and when my mother finds out, I will be scolded again. At that time, I never thought that this would be the case."

Xu Huan nodded: "No matter how rich we are in the future, the happiest thing is the days when family members support each other."

Xu An said yes.He doesn't have great skills, he just follows his elder brother anyway.

"Isn't Ah Ze the nineteenth Chinese New Year? Ajia and Ah Yin are the same age, and the Chinese New Year is also sixteen. But the second brother, I want to wait for their marriage. You know, the situation is changing rapidly right now. What will happen to our family in the future It's hard to say. Ah Si and Ah Yin have made a good marriage, but it is difficult for A Ze and A Jia to agree on it at the moment, and it might be better to wait."

Xu An had no objection: "Brother is the one who decides."

He has self-knowledge, the eldest brother is now the overlord of one side, and the two nieces are naturally easy to talk about marriage.In comparison, his father has no sense of existence, and even with the help of his elder brother, he cannot be the same as his niece.Just wait, next year will definitely be better.

Chatting here, I don’t know where a firecracker sounded, and it’s the Chinese New Year.
