Ex-husband begged me to remarry after feigning death

Chapter 353 Preparing for the New Year

A heavy snow fluttered like a goddess scattering flowers, endlessly falling from the depths of the sky, the windows were covered with a layer of water vapor, and the scenery outside was hazy and dreamy.

"Mommy, the teacher told us to write couplets by ourselves. Yubao has already thought about it, so let's start now, shall we?"

Yu Bao found a large stack of red paper from the storage room and carried it out.

Gu Qianran got up quickly and took the things in her hands. From the corner of her eye, she noticed that upstairs, Chen Bao had already pulled Mr. Gu's hand down.

Since Mr. Gu was sick last time, he was reluctant to go out, and stayed at home every day to write calligraphy, but it just came in handy at this moment.

"Writing couplets is a good habit. Let's compare the four of us to see who writes the best handwriting and who writes the best couplets. How about treating the loser to a hot pot?"

Mr. Gu was in high spirits.

Yubao heard this, and ran up the stairs in a hurry, and stood opposite Mr. Gu: "Grandfather, last time you said that if Yubao can get [-] points in the exam at the end of the semester, you will give me a red envelope. That's still true." ?"

Yu Bao is a clever little ghost, she figured out that she couldn't win this competition by herself, so she actually asked Mr. Gu for a red envelope first.

The servants in the room were all laughed by her words.

"For counting, of course for counting."

Old Master Gu went downstairs slowly, but Yu Bao took Chen Bao's hand and ran up instead.

After a while, as soon as Mr. Gu sat down on the sofa, Yu Bao ran down with four test papers, and opened them one by one for everyone to see.

The two of them performed very well and both scored double hundred.

"Grandpa, my brother and I both have two hundred points, so you have to give us two big red envelopes, right?" Yu Bao held Old Master Gu's hand.

Gu Qianran stood by and cut the red paper together with Mama Lin. Seeing that the little guy was unscrupulous, she wanted to stop her, but Mama Lin secretly gave her a hand.

"Let them make trouble, so that we can have a Chinese New Year look, right?"

Elderly people are very nostalgic. They all remember that the Chinese New Year is very special. When the twelfth lunar month comes, every household starts to prepare, clean the house, wash clothes, steam steamed buns, kill chickens and pigs, and even do it yourself. Making tofu and fried peanuts can't be idle all day, but it is also lively.

But now, the school has already had winter vacation, but the life is no different from usual.

Seeing that Old Master Gu was happy, Gu Qianran nodded in agreement, not stopping Yu Bao from messing around.

"Grandpa, now we can compete to write couplets."

After receiving a big red envelope, Yu Bao gained confidence and turned his attention to the couplet writing competition.

At noon, the snow was getting smaller and smaller, but Huo Lin rushed over to pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Gu before the snow stopped.

"Daddy!" The two little guys ran out of the restaurant, not too cold, and threw themselves on Huo Rin's body.

"Can you build a snowman and have a snowball fight with us in the afternoon? Mommy won't let Grandpa go out, and she is afraid of the cold, so she won't let the two of us go out alone. When you come, all problems will be solved."

Just as Huo Lin took off his coat, Yu Bao had already climbed onto him.

The servants brought in a large pile of New Year's goods from outside, such as chicken, duck, fish, fresh seafood, clothes, jewelry, and gift decorations, which filled most of the living room.

Seeing his upstart appearance, Gu Qianran couldn't help shaking her head secretly.

"Did Daddy eat? Have hot pot with us?" Chen Bao pulled Huo Lin to the restaurant.

Mr. Gu was in a good mood, raised his wine glass and looked at him: "Since you're here, why not have a drink with me."

The old man spoke up, so Gu Qianran naturally had no objection.

The hot pot took an exceptionally long time, it seemed to warm the whole room and everyone in the room.

However, during the whole process, Gu Qianran didn't say a word to him.

In the afternoon, Huo Lin played with the two little guys for a long time, and he left at dusk. He couldn't help turning his head when he got in the car, as if expecting that Gu Qianran would come out to see him off, but in the end, there was nothing but a vast expanse of whiteness .

Since that day, many people from the business world have come to pay New Year's greetings. Some of them are friends of Mr. Gu for many years, and some of them have only heard of Mr. Gu's name, so they come to visit during the Chinese New Year.

"Mr. Gu, this junior wishes you a happy new year."

Mr. Gu has always been in a good mood, and he treats all these people who come to the door. It seems that the Gu family's old house has set up a water table to entertain all kinds of guests every day.

"Grandpa, will it be too hard?" Gu Qianran came back from the company, seeing the different gifts in the living room, knew that the old man had seen many people today, and couldn't help frowning.

Mama Lin shook her head slightly, and lowered her voice: "The old man has an idea in his heart. Unless there are important guests, he won't accompany him to the fullest."

Looking up at the small living room inside, she originally wanted to say something, but she held back when the words came to her lips.

"Miss Qianran, this is the old man's medicine, how about you bring it in and give it to him?"

Turning around, she picked up the western medicine that had already been boiled, and she handed it to Gu Qianran.

Gu Qianran was stunned. Mama Lin never let her intervene in this kind of thing before. Even if she took the initiative to do it, Mama Lin would stop her and just say that she was in charge of directing. How could she take the initiative to let herself do the work today? ?

She didn't want to understand, but she also took the things, walked over quickly, and knocked lightly on the door of the small living room.

"Come in." Old Master Gu's voice was clear, and he seemed to be in a really good mood.

However, when Gu Qianran opened the door, the first thing she saw was a man, a man she had never seen before.

The man was tall and burly, with three-dimensional facial features, but the most striking thing was the long black hair tied behind his head.

"Hello, my name is Duan Xingzhe." He immediately stood up, looking at Gu Qianran with a pair of aura-filled peach blossom eyes, as if he saw some treasure that he had never seen before.

"Hello." Gu Qianran smiled, nodded slightly, strode up to Mr. Gu's side, and brought the bowl of warm soup to the old man's lips.

Old Master Gu was very cooperative and drank it all in one gulp, his eyes turned on Duan Xingzhe's face several times, and then he stood up with a smile on his face.

"I drank the medicine, I have to go upstairs to rest for a while, you can entertain the guests instead of me."

Although there were still several guests sitting in the living room next door, Mr. Gu asked Gu Qianran to entertain the one in front of him by name.

This is what Lin's mother just said but didn't say.

During the Chinese New Year this year, the reason why Mr. Gu did not thank the guests behind closed doors was because he wanted to find someone among the young people who took the initiative to come over to pay New Year's greetings, and find someone who would like Gu Qianran.

"Me?" Gu Qianran secretly blinked at the old man, and instantly understood what he meant.

"That's right, it's you." Old Master Gu patted her hand lightly, seeing that Duan Xingzhe's eyes seemed to have grown on Gu Qianran's body, he couldn't help but smiled again, and then walked away slowly.
