Chapter 733 Rejection
The two of them were so close, and Jiang Dalang was so attentive that he felt even his breath tasted sweet.

Unfortunately, Qin Xiaomi was an expert at ruining the atmosphere, and even asked, "Are you sick? You gave me such a valuable thing, do you think I can accept it?"

Qin Xiaomi stuffed the box into Jiang Dalang's arms, stepped back, weighed the lantern in her hand, and said, "This is my birthday gift this year. I like it very much."

This?
Jiang Dalang pretended that he didn't expect to be rejected, but he still tried to persuade her: "Xiaomi, you are going to build a medicinal material workshop after the new year. If you give me this, you can sell it at a high price... You keep it, and after you sell it, we will split it 50-50."

Qin Xiaomi shook her head: "I have two suggestions for you. First, keep one for your life, and use the other to get a job. Since you decided to join the army, you want to climb up, and if you want to climb up, in addition to merit, you must also use some common tricks."

"My second suggestion is that I'll call my grandparents over and ask them to help you deal with these two wild ginsengs."

It is the rule to seek help from elders when you are in doubt.

Jiang Dalang said anxiously, "No, if Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin knew that I had such a valuable thing, they would worry and lose sleep."

"You're right, so which suggestion do you choose?" Qin Xiaomi looked at him with a smile.

"I choose the first one." Jiang Dalang compromised, but he took out two silver notes: "The lanterns are not worth much, these two silver notes are for Xiaomi. Xiaomi can keep them for herself, or use them to help me buy some property. In any case, Xiaomi must accept them."

He seemed to be stubborn and very persistent.

Qin Xiaomi thought about it and accepted the banknote: "Okay. But you have to write me a certificate saying that you have no objection to the property I bought for you."

"Okay, I'll write a certificate for Xiaomi." Although it was very official, it was also a kind of intersection and entanglement, so Jiang Dalang was very happy.

Qin Xiaomi: "Well, after you hide the wild ginseng, go home and eat Yuanxiao."

This is Jiang’s shop.

"Xiaomi, wait for me, let's go home together, so that Grandma Qin won't scold you again." Jiang Dalang wanted to go with her.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come home, hurry up." Qin Xiaomi.

"Okay." Jiang Dalang's tone was excited, even with a little emotion... Go home, Susu will wait for him to come home.

In his previous life, the words and things he cared least about became his ardent requests in this life.

Jiang Dalang hurried back to the house, hid the wild ginseng, locked the door and came out.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaomi took the lantern and left first.

Jiang Dalang looked at her walking in front...he hoped that he could build a home of theirs as soon as possible.

In that house, besides the two of them, there were two children and laughter. There was no more calculation, treading on thin ice, caution, weighing, choosing, or killing.

"Oh, you're back. This is the lantern that Dalang made for you. It's so beautiful." Uncle Qin ran home early and said, panting, after Qin Xiaomi entered the shop.

Qin Xiaomi glanced at him and smiled: "Why does Second Uncle pant every time he speaks? How can you give birth to little cousins ​​when you are so weak?"

"..." Uncle Qin was insulted and shouted angrily into the house: "Mom and Dad, please control her. Is this something a little girl should say?!"

Qin Xiaomi chuckled: "So spying on the younger generation giving birthday gifts is something an elder can do?"

Uh this?

Was discovered.

With the sound of your breathing and heavy footsteps, it would be strange if you weren't discovered.

"I'm just following orders. If you want revenge, go find your grandparents." Uncle Qin was afraid of retaliation, so he ran away immediately.

"You are as cowardly as ever. How can you act like an elder?!" Qin Xiaomi deliberately said loudly.

Uncle Qin didn't even pause for a second as he ran to the kitchen to help roll the Yuanxiao (Chinese dumplings)... Humph, the little girl wanted to mock him for not having the courage to take the imperial examination again to avenge himself, but he has to take this trick!

In the kitchen, Grandma Qin, Second Aunt Qin, Aunt Qin, and Aunt Xu were making glutinous rice balls and rolling Yuanxiao.

Uncle Qin glanced at the kitchen and sighed, "It's different when we have money at home. We can eat food from all over the country during the Lantern Festival."

There is no need to argue whether it is Yuanxiao in the north or Tangyuan in the south. His family eats both! "Come and help quickly." Aunt Qin called him, but she actually wanted to ask what birthday gift her niece got.

Grandma Qin also looked at Uncle Qin, wanting to know whether her granddaughter accepted Dalang's gift.

Uncle Qin understood them and said, "First he gave me a box, which must have expensive stuff inside, so Xiaomi didn't want it. Then he gave me a banknote, so Xiaomi took it."

"Silver bills!" Aunt Qin exclaimed, "Da Lang is so generous."

Look at you again, you bastard, your dividends are deducted every month, and I have to subsidize you.

"Speak softly. If that girl hears you, she will definitely try to use some tricks to punish our second branch." Uncle Qin reminded.

"My husband is right." Aunt Qin stretched her neck and looked outside the kitchen door. When she didn't see Qin Xiaomi, she felt relieved.

Grandma Qin was very happy: "As long as you are willing to accept the gift."

The granddaughter's willingness to accept Dalang's gift means that Dalang still has a chance.

Several people worked in the kitchen for half an hour and cooked two large pots of glutinous rice balls and Yuanxiao, each pot weighing at least three pounds.

However, there are eleven people in the Qin and Jiang families, so they can finish it.

"A Zheng's mother, everything is fine tonight, you can go and celebrate the Lantern Festival with everyone." Grandma Qin ordered.

"Oh, thank you, old lady." Aunt Xu responded happily. After cleaning the kitchen, she went back to the shop next door where the maid lived to eat rice dumplings and celebrate the Lantern Festival together.

The lights in front of the Qin family's shop were brightly lit because there were eight lanterns hanging in the shop. Except for the ones given by Jiang Dalang to Qin Xiaomi and the ones given by Guan Shuli to Qin Xiaogu, the other six were all won by Qin Xiaogu.

Even Jiang Dalang, who had seen many top scorers in his previous life, couldn't help but praise: "Xiao Gu is really smart. He won thirteen lanterns in one go."

Xiao Gu only kept six lanterns for his family and distributed the rest to several families.

Little Fubao even monopolized two lanterns because the Qiao family had no children yet, so all the lanterns from the Xu and Qiao families were his.

After Jiang Dalang started talking, Jiang Erlang followed up: "Xiao Gu is really amazing. There are people looking for Xiao Gu on the street now. Our Xiao Gu has become famous."

Although little Jiang Erlang was shocked by Xiaogu's love of reading, he also admired Qin Xiaogu's knowledge.

He added: "Unlike me, I can't guess the answer to the riddle."

Qin Xiaogu said: "It's not that Erlangge can't guess the answer, it's that he's too lazy to guess, because Erlangge knows that I can win lanterns for my family, so he's too lazy to bother guessing the lantern riddles."

Hehe, Jiang Erlang smiled and didn’t think there was anything wrong with this… With Grandpa Qin, Grandma Qin, big brother, sister Xiaomi, and Xiaogu around, he didn’t need to do anything to live a good life, which was good and he was very satisfied.

He put away his smile again, fearing that his elder brother would see him and give him a scolding.

Jiang Xiaozhu, Qin Xiaomi, Jiang Dalang, and even Uncle Qin praised Qin Xiaogu.

Uncle Qin also said: "Xiao Gu should study hard and pass the imperial examination in a few years, so that our family can live a better life."

Ding-dang, the sound of Grandpa Qin knocking the wooden spoon into the ceramic bowl.

Everyone in the family felt a tightness in their hearts.

Grandpa Qin said: "Life at home is good enough, there is no need for more fame to add to it."

Sure enough, Grandpa Qin was still afraid that his children would take the imperial examinations.

The atmosphere in the room became tense.

Grandpa Qin didn't want to ruin the family's festive mood, so he smiled and said, "Today is Xiaomi's birthday. Hurry up and bring the birthday gift you prepared to Xiaomi."

"Hey. Xiaozhu, come with your aunt to get the birthday gift for your sister Xiaomi." Aunt Qin was the first to stand up and called Jiang Xiaozhu to go back to the room where they lived to get the birthday gift.

In just half a quarter of an hour, Qin Xiaomi received a pile of birthday gifts from both families.
