No matter what the two children of the Guo family thought, on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, many people came to the door of the Liu family, intending to pay New Year's greetings to the Liu family first.

Chang Pingning also saw a lot of carriages in front of Liu's house. One look at the carriages and they knew they were big shots from the town.

The people in Guojiacun also knew that they were not as important as the people in the town, so most of them handed the New Year's gifts to Butler Liu and then left.At most, he could just take a sip of hot dumpling soup at Butler Liu's invitation.

No matter how much they are, they will be gone. There will be no chance of seeing Mr. Liu, let alone Miss Liu and Miss Liu’s son.

The same is true for Guo Dayong's family.

However, they didn't take a few steps after leaving when they heard Butler Liu's greeting, asking Chang Pingning and Guo Bomo to wait a little longer.

Chang Pingning was puzzled, but after Butler Liu approached, she heard Butler Liu whisper that it was Miss Liu who wanted to see her and called her husband by the way.

Chang Pingning was a little embarrassed, but Guo Bomo joked quietly from the side.

"It seems that I have taken advantage of the lady." Guo Bomo said in a voice that only two people could hear, and looked at Chang Pingning.

Chang Pingning glanced at Guo Bomo helplessly, followed Butler Liu and walked into Liu's house.

Butler Liu took Guo Bomo and his wife to the Liu family's kitchen, prepared tea for them and asked them to wait for a while.

"Why didn't you come to the door before you came to pay New Year's greetings?" Meng Xia's voice came from behind.

Chang Pingning turned around and looked at Meng Xia with a smile: "There are too many people coming to the Liu family to pay New Year's greetings. What about you? Why do you have to cook on the first day of the first lunar month?" As he spoke, his eyes fell on the apron in front of Meng Xia.

After listening to Chang Pingning's words, Meng Xia said with some humor: "How can a cook have time to rest?"

Meng Xia and Chang Pingning started chatting along with the conversation.

Not long after, the heavy curtain at the kitchen door was lifted, and Liu Qingwan appeared.

Liu Qingwan was covered in jewels and jewels. In Chang Pingning's opinion, the kitchen had become much brighter since Liu Qingwan entered the kitchen.

Shocked by Liu Qingwan's demeanor, Chang Pingning and Guo Bomo subconsciously stood up and saluted Liu Qingwan.

Liu Qingwan smiled, nodded at the two of them, walked up to Chang Pingning, and exchanged a few words.

"I have to go around a lot these days, but I forgot about Madam Chang's house. Fortunately, you came to the house today to give New Year's gifts, and that's when I met her." Liu Qingwan said, patting Chang Pingning's hand. , hesitated for a long time.

Just when Chang Pingning thought Liu Qingwan was going to give the jade bracelet in her hand to him, Chang Pingning saw Liu Qingwan take out a small delicate purse from her arms and hand it to him.

"I have some thoughts, so I won't go to your house this year." Liu Qingwan said, then turned to Meng Xia, and hurriedly told her some taboos when entertaining guests at home today.

Chang Pingning dullly took the purse handed over by Liu Qingwan, just enough to hold it with one hand. She touched it with her hands and found small gadgets inside.

Chang Pingning couldn't figure out what was inside for a while, and exchanged a confused look with Guo Bomo.

Then Chang Pingning realized that she had not thanked her yet. She looked at Liu Qingwan and was about to thank her, but Liu Qingwan still spoke quickly and explained what Meng Xia would do next.

When Liu Qingwan finally explained what Meng Xia was going to do next, she looked at Chang Pingning, as if she knew what Chang Pingning was thinking of saying, and she spoke faster than Chang Pingning.

"No need to thank you. I'm grateful to you for this time. There will be others coming to the house soon. I'll go to the front first. You can talk to Meng Xia for a while here." Liu Qingwan said and sighed subconsciously. , and left in a hurry.Chang Pingning looked at Meng Xia blankly.

Meng Xia shrugged, clasped his fingers and counted to Chang Pingning: "On the first day of the new year, the county magistrate is coming, the clan members of the Liu family in the town are coming, I don't know if the Guo family clan will come too, and there are a few more people in the town. Yuanwaijia..."

Hearing these famous names, Chang Pingning felt that it was appropriate for Liu Qingwan to come to her during her busy schedule.

Chang Pingning nodded, holding the purse Liu Qingwan just handed over in his hand, a little curious about what was inside.

Probably because the curious expression on Chang Pingning's face was too obvious, Meng Xia smiled and pushed Chang Pingning, asking her to go back and open it quickly. There must be a New Year's gift she would like inside.

Chang Pingning said goodbye to Meng Xia with some embarrassment, saying not to disturb her any more, and prepared to leave the Liu family's kitchen.

After walking out of Liu's house, Chang Pingning glanced at Guo Bomo next to him. Both of them looked eagerly at the delicate purse in Chang Pingning's hand.Chang Pingning opened it slowly.

Inside is a small bag of silver melon seeds.

Silver shaped like sunflower seeds.

Chang Pingning had never seen such a delicate object. He felt it was so cute when he held it in his hand, and he was reluctant to spend it for a while.

In the remaining first month of the year, Chang Pingning followed Guo Bomo to visit relatives in the village to pay New Year's greetings.

Soon, as every family finished eating glutinous rice balls, the atmosphere of the New Year in the first month ended with the sparse sound of firecrackers.

One day after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Chang Pingning was preparing to go to the port with Guo Bomo to see if any merchants from other places had gone out, and they were planning to set up a stall after the new year.

There was a gentle knock on the Guo family's courtyard door, and it was Aunt Guangying who opened the door from outside.

Aunt Guangying walked into the Guo family's yard and looked at Chang Pingning with some embarrassment. Then she found Guo Bomo feeding the donkey, looking like he was getting ready to go out.

"Are you going out? Are Bomer's wife free at the moment?" Aunt Guangying said without saying anything, clasping her hands together.

Chang Pingning glanced at Guo Bomo, signaled that he was going to talk to Aunt Guangying, and walked up to Aunt Guangying with a smile.

"Aunt, are you here to see me? What's going on?" Chang Pingning asked, "Is the school reopening?"

Aunt Guangying shook her head and clasped her hands tighter: "Your uncle wants me to ask, when will our village's sea fishing start? It's already the New Year, we've finished drinking glutinous rice balls, and there's still no news or movement. .”

Chang Pingning was stunned. She really didn't know the news about catching up with the sea in the village.

Liu Qingwan has been busy celebrating the New Year recently and has not given her any news; Meng Xia came to Guo's house once to pay Chang Pingning New Year greetings, but she didn't talk about anything about going to the sea or school.

"Auntie's words really bother me." Chang Pingning said, "I didn't get the news. I guess it's because the Liu family hasn't had time to think about this stall right now, right?"

Without the Liu family, no nobles from the town would come to Guojia Village.Even if the people in the village are anxious, there is nothing they can do.

"Yes, it takes a lot of time to move around their house." Aunt Guangying said, and then she asked casually, "By the way, Wife-in-law Bomer, you are close to their house, so Aunt Guangying can ask more. Will their family have the opportunity to go back after the new year?"

Wrong estimate of cleaning time for moving house. . .Today is another urgent day to save manuscripts. Woohoo.
