Eldest daughter

Chapter 273
On the first day of the new year, this early in the morning, the sky began to snow profusely.

Wang Yuan'er was about to get up and wash up, when she heard a sound outside the door, opened the door and saw a few young people crowded there, smiling and shouting at her in unison.

"Sister, happy new year!"

"Happy New Year to you too." Wang Yuan'er smiled, stepped aside, and walked in with Qing'er leading the way.

She wanted to say something, but Qing'er pushed her into a chair. She didn't understand something, so she didn't make a sound, and it was up to them to see what they were up to.

Sitting upright on the chair, Wang Yuaner looked at the three siblings, but was stunned.

Still led by Wang Qing'er, the three of them stood in a row, knelt down towards Wang Yuan'er, bowed respectfully, and said good luck.

Wang Yuan'er's eyes turned red in an instant, and she said with a sneer, "What are you doing, a great gift, and I don't have any red envelopes to give."

She knew very well that this was the way her siblings respected her and gave her the greatest dignity.

"Eldest sister can't be stingy." Wang Qing'er blinked, and pouted at Baolai again.

Dressed like a fuwa, Xiao Baolai rushed to Wang Yuaner's place, grabbed her knee, and said in a childish voice, "Eldest sister, I want a red envelope."

Wang Yuan'er's heart softened into a puddle of water. She hugged him and kissed him twice, and saw two small bright eyes, and said angrily, "I'm afraid of you guys!"

Walking inside, she took out three red envelopes that she had prepared long ago, and gave each of them one.

"Thank you, big sister." Wang Qing'er pinched her, smiling until her eyes were crooked.

"Wow, it's gold." Here, Baolai has opened the red envelope, which is a small golden bean.

Wang Qing'er was stunned for a moment, then opened it, and couldn't help saying: "Eldest sister, why do you give me this?" She thought she was just giving a small silver coin or something.

"This year's profit is good, and you are all grown up. I will keep these for yourselves and make them dowry in the future." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.

After hearing this, Wang Qing'er said thank you vigorously, and carefully put it in her purse.

Lan'er also wanted to put it in her purse, but after thinking about it, she still gave it to Wang Yuan'er.

"Sister, I'm still young, please keep it for me, and give it to me in the future."

"Okay, what do you want to buy, you can buy the elder sister's." Wang Yuan'er also happily put it away.

"Sister, take it!" Wang Baolai was also a ghost, and he also sealed his little red to the past.

Wang Yuan'er naturally put it away, even if he didn't give it to her, she would definitely take it over and keep it for her when she turned around, otherwise, he would be a child with this red seal on his body, and he wouldn't even know it was passed along.

"Let's go, after breakfast, let's pay New Year's greetings to grandpa and grandma!" Wang Yuan'er said to several people again.

The old house, the main house.

Old man Wang and Mrs. Wang kept looking at the door, expecting Wang Yuaner and the others to appear.

"Why don't you come?" Mrs. Wang frowned.

"What's the hurry, although the distance is short, it's snowing now, so it's not sure if they're walking slowly." Old man Wang said something, but his eyes couldn't help but be anxious.

"Don't be in a hurry!" Mrs. Wang glanced over and pierced him without hesitation.

"Father, mother, I don't think there is any need to wait. How long have you been waiting? I'm afraid the bed in the new house is good and warm, and I haven't gotten up yet!" Zhang said with her mouth curled up, "We all Those who are rushing out to do things, there is no reason to just wait like this!"

"It's Chinese New Year, what do you have to do? It's not about doing something big. If you want to wait, you can wait, if you don't want to wait, just leave." Mrs. Wang glanced over coldly and said with a calm face.

Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth, Wang Er tugged at her sleeve, gave her a look, had to hold back, and couldn't help slandering, the old man just had a biased view.

"Come on, come on, big sister and the others are here!" Fodor shouted at the door.

Mrs. Wang and the others immediately sat up straight, even Mrs. Zhang herself sat upright.

Turning his head slightly to look at the door, the light dimmed slightly, Wang Yuan'er walked in holding Baolai, followed by Qing'er holding the girl Lan'er.

Looking at the siblings, Mrs. Zhang narrowed her eyes slightly.

Perhaps because of the New Year, the siblings have carefully dressed up and put on new clothes, looking very upright and glamorous.

Wang Yuan'er wore a pink dress and a light squirrel fur cloak inlaid with rabbit fur. When she put down her Baolai, she took off the style on her head. On it was a box inlaid with a treasure walker. She wore a pearl pendant and her skin was crystal clear. Run.

Baolai at her feet was dressed like a new year's doll, chubby, with a scarlet velvet hat inlaid with rabbit fur, very festive.

Look at that girl again, she is wearing a silver-red dress with rabbit fur trim, an off-white cloak, and two pearl tassels on her head. On the side, there is a whole beauty.

And Wang Lan'er was dressed relatively simply, wearing a concubine-colored dress, small boots, two buns on her head, and two pearl flowers pinned to her head. Compared with ordinary peasant children, she was also very decent and beautiful.

Sure enough, Buddha relies on gold clothes, and people rely on clothes. The children in the big house are dressed like this, they are becoming more and more like the ladies of the big family, Mrs. Zhang thought secretly, and she was sour.

Wang Fuquan stood on the side all the time. When Wang Yuaner and the others came in, he just raised his eyelids and took a sideways glance. After looking at their outfits, he was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head again.

Snowflakes were flying outside the house, and the house was warm. Wang Yuan'er took off his cloaks, and then he knelt on the ground and greeted Mrs. Wang and the others.

"Get up quickly, it's cold on the ground." Old man Wang's grin almost reached his ears.

Mrs. Wang took the red envelopes that had been prepared from the basket beside her and gave each of them one: "Little red envelope, you are one year older, you must be obedient."

"Thank you, grandma." Wang Yuan'er accepted it with a smile.

Then he paid New Year's greetings to the second uncle and the second aunt, and the second aunt reluctantly took out the red envelope, with a heartbroken look on her face, and said bitterly: "I don't have much money, I'm afraid you won't see it now , don’t think too little.”

Wang Yuan'er had long been used to her sour look, thanked her with a smile, and sat on the side talking with her again.

Mrs. Wang invited Baolai to sit beside her, and gave Wang Yuan'er and the others some candies to eat. The intimacy was so warm.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang felt sour in her heart, and pushed Fuduo over, as if she was afraid of losing her favor.

The corners of Wang Yuan'er's eyes were swept away, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, answering the old man Wang's question.

"I've lived here for a few days. I'm used to it. Even though the house is big, there are only a few of us. We need to be more popular in the future." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang said: "Father, don't worry, there is a new house, how can you not get used to it? I see that Yuan'er and the others have rosy complexions, and their breath is good." The voice changed, and it was sour and authentic : "It's not like us, where there is still a big place, and I don't know when I will be lucky enough to build such a big house!"

When these words came out, Old Man Wang and the others looked very unhappy.

Wang Er even lowered his face, and lightly reprimanded: "It's New Year's Eve, do you think these are interesting? Living here is hard for you?"

Seeing that it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, Mrs. Wang didn't want to scold others, so she went straight to gouging out the daughter-in-law's face with sharp eyes.

Mrs. Zhang pouted, did she stop talking?
Wang Yuan'er took a sip of tea and smoothed things over with a smile: "Second uncle and second aunt will also have the blessings that my second aunt said in the future. As long as you are willing to work, there is nothing you can't earn. I'm afraid that if you don't work hard, it's better to be ambitious and whimsical. , then I really have nothing to say, Second Aunt, don’t you think so?”

Mrs. Zhang was stabbed by her words as if she had been poked with a needle, and smiled embarrassingly: "That's right, but you also need to be supported by noble people, Yuan'er, now you are the first in Changle Town. Please help us carefully too!"

Wang Yuan'er smiled lightly and didn't answer.

Seeing this, Wang Er scolded again: "It's done, it's done, you woman is getting farther and farther away, go down and prepare for an afternoon court." Then he said to Wang Yuan'er and the others: "Today at noon, you guys are here Let's eat in the old house, there are only a few people, don't go back to cook the stove."

Wang Yuan'er agreed with a smile. Anyway, if she doesn't go out on the first day of the new year, it doesn't matter where she eats. She has the right to accompany the old man. Moreover, she also wants to talk to Old Man Wang about buying someone.

Mrs. Zhang is a little bit reluctant, Dafang is very rich now, why should she spend money with them!

But she didn't dare to say no, didn't she see that old thing's eyes were turning into knives?
But Wang Qing'er couldn't sit still, she said she wanted to go out for a walk, talk to a good playmate, and ran away.

Lan'er also wanted to go out to play, but Wang Yuan'er saw that it was snowing heavily outside, so she was afraid that she would fall in the cold, so she was not allowed to go out, so she had to pick up firecrackers and build a snowman with Fuduo at the gate of the old house to play.

The children were all out to play, so Wang Yuan'er took advantage of this opportunity to tell Old Man Wang and the others about buying a few servants.

"You have no father or mother, but you still have your second uncle, and..." Mrs. Wang frowned first, wanting to say that it's not like she has no one to rely on, but she herself felt unreliable.

Old man Wang was quite open-minded, and said: "It's good for you to have plans, after all, you and Qing'er are grown up, but it costs a lot of money to buy and support people, but can you bear it?"

"The business is quite stable now, and the dividends are not bad. It's not a problem to support a few people." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.

Old man Wang nodded, and Mrs. Wang said: "My servant, I'm always inferior to my second uncle. If there's something wrong, I'd better ask your second uncle to help me."

Wang Yuan'er didn't argue, but didn't say good or bad, just smiled lightly.

She knows that there are such things as slaves bullying their masters, so the selection of slaves must be done carefully.

But she also knows that sometimes, a real relative is not as good as a sincere servant, but she didn't say that.

The matter of buying someone was just an announcement, and Old Man Wang and the others knew about it, so they didn't say anything superfluous, they just mentioned a few words as elders.

Wang Yuan'er has the right idea now, she knows what she should listen to and what she shouldn't listen to, so she just agrees. As for how she will do in the future, she also has a decision in her heart.
