Chapter 167
After Wang Qinshan read the article, he was quite satisfied, so he asked him to call himself uncle instead.

Wang Qinshan was originally Xu Yuanqing's fellow apprentice, and now that he said it himself, it was tantamount to recognizing Xie Xiuwen, which was a relationship that no one else could ask for.

On the sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Xie Xiuwen went to ask Wang Qinshan for advice, and was stayed for lunch.

On the 21st of the twelfth lunar month, Xie Xiuwen personally sent some new year gifts to the palace. Even though it was not a very expensive thing, Wang Qinshan was very satisfied with this kindness.

"You should focus on learning, and you will have to take the test in more than two months. Don't let other trivial matters distract your mind."

"Yes, Uncle Master, students please remember."

On the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month, Zhao Yue and Cao Xin went to Sanxing Hutong together.

"My lords, please take your seat."

"You don't have to be so polite. We're here to see Xiaoguaibao. The New Year's Eve is coming. My master specially prepared a New Year's gift for Xiaoguaibao. Let's see if she likes it."

Xie Xiuwen hurriedly saluted and said, "Don't dare, it's the little girl who made the two adults bother."

Zhao Yue waved his hand indifferently: "Young master also likes Xiaoguaibao, this girl is brave and very smart."

Cao Xin nodded: "Yes, this child is really spiritual, he looks like a little Fuwa, the more he looks at it, the more he likes it."

Xie Xiuwen lowered his head: Hmph, if you like it, that's my daughter too!

Xie Rongzhao was accompanied by Wang Momo, that is, the sister-in-law Wang who had been serving Liu Ruolan before.

"Mommy, go back first, it's cold outside."

Wang Momo smiled and said: "Miss, go in quickly, the servant is waiting for you in the side hall."

Xie Rongzhao was actually not far from the backyard to the front hall, after all, it was only in the second house, and she just felt that the cloak on her body was not warm yet, and she had to take it off again when she entered the house.

"Baby, send greetings to Uncle Uncle and Dad."

Xie Rongzhao performed a Wanfu ceremony, and just got up when he was called to him by Zhao Yue.

"Let's see, why do you look a little thinner, and haven't eaten well in the past few days?"

Xie Rongzhao smiled obediently: "I'm not thin, did I grow taller?"

Zhao Yue really made a few gestures on the top of her head with his hand, shook his head and said: "I really didn't see it, but the eyes are bigger when I look at them."

Cao Xin on the side answered, "The eyes look bigger, which means the face is thinner."

Xie Rongzhao said with a grin: "Uncle, I prepared a New Year's gift for you. Originally, my father said that he would send it on my behalf. You just came, so I'll give it to you directly, okay?"

Zhao Yue raised his eyebrows, apparently in a good mood: "Then tell me, what have you prepared for me?"

Xie Rongzhao turned his head to look at Xie Xiuwen, saw him nodding, and then said: "Of course I prepared good things, just wait, I'll go to the backyard to get them."

"Don't worry, let's see if these things are still in your mind. If they are in your mind, then take them to the backyard together."

Xie Rongzhao thought that he had received gifts from them once before, most of them were for his own use, and he didn't know what it was this time.

Xie Xiuwen also watched from the side, seeing that Xie Rongzhao took out a box, which contained bird's nest, he was somewhat flattered.

This thing is precious!
If it is cooked well, a small bowl will cost dozens of taels of silver, so I dare not ask for it casually.

"My son, this is too precious, we cannot accept it."

Zhao Yue just glanced at him sideways: "I gave this to Xiao Guaibao, look at how much this girl has lost weight, the weather in the north is different from that in the south, so you have to make up for it when it's cold, she is young , and supplements can’t be used, it’s just right to eat this.”

Xie Xiuwen twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, as if this bird's nest was not a tonic.

Xie Rongzhao just took a cursory glance, then thanked Zhao Yue with a smile: "They are all good things! I like them very much, thank you Uncle. But does it cost a lot of money? If it is too expensive, I will The gift prepared for Uncle may seem too cheap. Dad said that if the gifts given are not equal to each other, it is disrespectful to the other party."

Both Zhao Yue and Cao Xin looked at Xie Xiuwen in surprise, never expecting that this person would even teach Xiao Guaibao these things.

"Baby, the value of a gift is not judged by money alone. How about we make a judgment after you take the gift you prepared for me?"

Xie Rongzhao nodded happily, and then hesitantly glanced at another small box: "This one is kept alone, did Abo give it to me?"

Cao Xin's heartbeat quickened, after a long time, Xiao Guaibao knew how to talk to him.

"Well, it was chosen by your aunt, see if you like it."

Xie Rongzhao opened it and saw that it was a whole set of gold bell jewelry, including two small gold bracelets, a pair of gold earrings, two red silk hair bands, and two gold bells hanging from each end. It's really crisp and nice.

"It's so beautiful, thank you, Uncle, and thank you, Auntie, for me."

"Okay, as long as you like it."

The New Year gift that Xie Rongzhao prepared for them was indeed a little flimsy.

What Xie Rongzhao prepared for Zhao Yue were a few wooden swords. The hilts of the swords were carefully carved, and there were red sword tassels wrapped around them. He also prepared a few hand warmers for women, but they were relatively small. For children.

"Uncle, you take these back home for your brothers and sisters to play with, and these for your older sisters and sisters. I made this hand warmer myself. There are rabbit fur inside. It's warm and fluffy, and it's not cold at all."

After Zhao Yue saw the things she had prepared, he had guesses in his heart, but he still wanted to ask one more question.

"Didn't my baby say to give me gifts? Why are they all for my children?"

"Give these to them, they will definitely be happy, and they will like Uncle more, so Uncle should be happy!"

Zhao Yue was taken aback, there was nothing wrong with this logic!

"Besides, I know Uncle is not short of money, but I don't have that much money. This rabbit fur was tanned from rabbits caught in the mountains before. It was made by my father and Fang Hu together. It's worthless , which is our heart.”

Xie Xiuwen didn't speak, but this girl counted him in.

"Well, Uncle likes it very much."

Zhao Yue not only thought about it, the child has grown up so much, has he ever prepared anything for the child with his own hands?
As soon as he thought that the children were afraid of him, he kept losing the idea of ​​getting close to the children.

Now that I am stimulated by these little things again, I really want to go back and see the expressions of those little brats when they receive the gifts.

What Xie Rongzhao prepared for Cao Xin was a beautiful brocade sachet.

"Abo, there are some refreshing herbs in it. I asked the doctor about it. It is good for your health. I heard that at the end of the year, the yamen is busy everywhere. Abo can wear it on his body during the day. When he goes to the yamen, he will not Sleepy."
