The man seemed a little uncomfortable, and unconsciously touched his chin with the green stubble.

The sudden silence and scrutiny of the two women at the door made him even more uncomfortable.

"Mr. Sanlang?" the servant girl recovered and shouted, somewhat surprised.

Xu Maoxiu raised his head to look at the maidservant, then hurriedly lowered his head to look at the clothes.

"Doesn't it fit? I think it's okay," he said.

"Mr. Sanlang!" The servant girl interrupted him with a smile this time, "If you shave off your beard, I won't recognize you anymore!"

Xu Maoxiu was obviously not used to shaving his beard. He was always a little uneasy when he sat down, and would occasionally tug at the corner of his clothes.

The maid couldn't help laughing.

"I'd better change out of the new clothes and wear them on New Year's Day, so as not to get wrinkled." Xu Maoxiu said.

The maid hurriedly stood up and opened the door.

"Mr. Sanlang, this dress fits you too well." She laughed.

"It's your choice." Xu Maoxiu said with a smile, and went out.

"Lady, don't gentlemen have to change their appearance after changing into new clothes?" The maid smiled, looking at the door with a bit of naughtiness.

But it's a pity that the men who wore new clothes to show my sister either didn't change, or became more funny.

"...This is too small..."

"...I've tried it all, this is the biggest..."

"...Liu Lang-jun, I will write it down, I will take out a replacement..."

"...I'll go with you, so I won't spoil my clothes..."

Looking at this, talking and laughing, Xu Maoxiu, who had already changed into old clothes and felt much more at ease, turned his head and smiled at Cheng Jiaoniang.

"New Year's goods or something. Don't worry about it anymore." He said.

Before the words were finished, Brother Jin ran in from outside the door.

"Lady, Chen Xianggong's family is here for the New Year ceremony."

The shout stunned the people in the room, and they immediately stood up.

"Chen Xianggong? Who is Chen Xianggong?"

Other men don't understand, so Xu Maoxiu naturally understands. It's not ordinary people who can be called husbands.

"Sister, let's avoid it." He said hastily.

Cheng Jiaoniang shook her head.

"Brother is wrong, you are brothers, do you still want my younger sister to treat you?" she said.

The men in the room suddenly panicked.

Xu Maoxiu looked at Cheng Jiaoniang and took a deep breath.Nod with a smile.

"That's it, brother." He looked at Fan Jianglin, "We welcome guests."

Fan Jianglin nodded, shook his clothes, and strode out first.

"...I...how about I change into new clothes...."

There were low voices from other men behind him.

In the yard, the steward of the Chen family was watching the boys unloading their cars, when he heard the sound of footsteps he hurriedly straightened his clothes and came over to salute.But when he looked up and saw several strange men, he couldn't help being startled.

"A certain Fan Jianglin thanked you for my younger sister." As the boss, Fan Jianglin said with his hands clasped first.

The steward of the Chen family reacted quickly and saluted immediately.

Back then, the misunderstanding that Jin Geer was kidnapped and trafficked was spread in private, but now he took a closer look and understood.

It turned out that these people were not only acquainted with Mrs. Cheng.They are all brothers and sisters.

The steward of the Chen family saluted seriously without asking Mrs. Cheng.They only treated Fan Jianglin and others as serious masters, handed over the post, and explained the list of rituals without any neglect.

Fan Jianglin received the gift, and Xu Maoxiu was in charge of speaking. Although he was unfamiliar, he did not panic.After a while, the steward of the Chen family was sent out.

"Oh my mother." Xu Bangchui immediately shouted, stretching out his hand to feel sweaty. "My mallet is so big, it's the first annual gift."

Some people went to see the gifts, while others urged Xu Maoxiu to read the posts.

"Who is who?"

Xu Maoxiu opened the name post.

Quzhou Chen Pu.

I didn't recognize the name, so Xu Maoxiu flipped through it again, and there were actually two gift lists in a famous post, except for the biggest one, there was another accompanying gift.

The host who accompanied the gift also left his name.

Chen Shao.

The post in Xu Maoxiu's hand shook, and Fan Jianglin's sharp eyes quickly reached out to catch the falling gift list.

"The third child?" he asked, "Who is it?"

"Yes, Minister Chen Xianggong." Xu Maoxiu said in a low voice.

Although they don't understand the big and small officials of the imperial court, at least a few high-ranking officials are well known, not to mention the officials who are in charge of promotion.

"This is a character who has reached the sky." Fan Jianglin was surprised, and couldn't help but look back into the room.

The maid in the house was taking notes to write down something, and Cheng Jiaoniang whispered a few words from time to time, she seemed to be no doubt like the female family members of all families.

Xu Maoxiu pondered for a moment, put away the name card, and stepped in.

"Sister, what kind of gift do you think we should return? It's our first time in Beijing, and we don't know the customs here, so we need you to make up your mind." He said with a smile, and handed over the name card without asking any questions.

Cheng Jiaoniang looked at him and bent her mouth.

"Brother, I just came to the capital." She said, and looked at the maid, "However, Banqin is a regular customer in the capital."

Xu Maoxiu couldn't help looking at the maid.

This maid turned out to be a regular customer in the capital?But Cheng Jiaoniang is not from the capital?this?

"That's good." Xu Maoxiu nodded with a smile, and called Fan Jianglin, "My sister left a lot of money last time, so Banqin can take it and buy it."

The maid saluted and answered yes.

"I'll keep the money, you come and get it with me." Fan Jianglin said as he stood up.

"Also, by the way, let's go to the street together and send the clothes to the shop for modification." Xu Bangchui also said.

"By the way, let's buy new year's goods." The maid said.

"Yes, yes, you have to buy peach charms and firecrackers."

"Wine, wine."

"There must be no shortage of incense candles to worship ancestors."

"Go, go, I haven't visited the capital yet."

The brothers all stood up, talking and laughing, if they hadn't deliberately lowered their voices, the roof would have been knocked off by the noise.

Xu Maoxiu withdrew his gaze, looked at Cheng Jiaoniang, and saw the woman opposite was sitting quietly, with the corners of her mouth curled up.

Since we met, it is rare to see this woman's expression fluctuate, which is already a rare expression of her mood.

"It's noisy to you." He said, "Everyone is a rough man, and he doesn't understand any rules."

Cheng Jiaoniang looked at him.

"Family, there is no need for rules." She said, "It's lively and festive in this way, thank you brothers, don't be restrained, don't see outsiders."

Xu Maoxiu reached out to touch his beard, only to realize that he had shaved it off with his tentacles, and stroked his chin uncomfortably.

"Look, if you always behave like this, you will be alienated." He laughed.

"What brother said is true." Cheng Jiaoniang said, sitting up straight.

There was the sound of burning bamboo outside, the street door opened, and children ran past laughing and laughing, the New Year's Eve was approaching.

There were more and more firecrackers on the street, the maid avoided a few laughing children running past holding a rabbit lamp, and stepped into the Sunflower Garden Residence.

The guy immediately greeted her with a smile when he saw her.

"My sister is here." He said, "Han Langjun has ordered you to call him when you come."

The maid thanked her with a smile.

Not long after, Han Yuanchao came over wearing a big cloak.

The man outside the door also notified the carriage to come over, the maid got into the carriage, Han Yuan got on the horse, invited another doctor, and the two went out of the city.

"The girl's accent is from Jiangnan?" Han Yuanchao chatted.

It's sunny today, the maid opened the curtain of the car, wrapped in a big cloak, she doesn't feel cold, so she can talk to Han Yuanchao.

"Yes, from Jiangzhou." The servant girl nodded without concealing it.

"Long live in the capital?" Han Yuanchao asked again.

"This." The maid shook her head, "I don't know yet, listen to my master."

Han Yuanchao nodded in understanding.

"There is one more thing." The maid said, "Your Majesty may not know that this Immortal Residence has some contacts with Mr. Liu Xiaoli, the official of the secret pavilion under the Zhongshumen."

Han Yuanchao was startled and turned to look at the maidservant. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
