The fate of the Republic of China is you

After the turmoil settled down, the Zheng family kept Zheng Jiayi from top to bottom, she thought she would marry the second young master of the Deng family, and she was happy every day. The second aunt Du Meirou has been by her daughter's side all the time, she has changed from her previous sharpness, and will no longer go forward. hospital.

Even the New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve was left alone in the room. Zheng Jiayi invited him several times to no avail, so he went to the front to eat alone.

"Mother Zhang, bring me that plate of beautiful liver." Zheng Jiayi was very depressed after sitting down. Usually, her mother would sit next to her on New Year's Eve.

Mama Zhang was a little hesitant, and glanced at Zheng Jiawen, because the second miss always liked to eat beauty liver.

Zheng Jiawen glanced at Zhang Ma and motioned her to bring it to Zheng Jiayi.

Seeing this, Hou Shuyi lowered her voice and whispered to Zheng Jiawen's ears: "If you like to eat, just keep some, why don't you give it to her?"

"I can't eat whenever I want. After she gets married, her husband's family may not be willing to indulge her. I hope father can find a good family for her." Zheng Jiawen said in a low voice, kicked off the fishbone caught in the chopsticks, and put To Xiang Lan's bowl.

"Aniang, I'm full, take us out to watch the firecrackers." Zheng Xianglan finished eating the fish, put down his chopsticks, stood up, and walked to Hou Shuyi and said.

"Are you sure you're full? You can't wake up so late to make noodles for you like yesterday when Mama Zhang was so hungry." Hou Shuyi wiped the vegetable juice from the corner of Lan's mouth with a handkerchief.

"I'm really full this time." Zheng Xianglan said.

"Take the two of them. There will be a New Year's Eve dinner tonight. Eat when you're hungry." Zheng Jiawen spoke from the side.

After hearing this, Hou Shuyi put down her chopsticks, carried Xiang Tong down, talked to her elders, and took the two children out.

"Hey." Tao Min held up his chopsticks and sighed as he looked at a dish of fried tofu.

"Mother, what's the matter?" Zheng Jiawen asked hurriedly.

"Your brother loves fried tofu the most, but unfortunately he didn't come back this year." Tao Min put down his chopsticks.

"Didn't the letter from my brother say that I didn't get the train ticket for the time of return, and I'll be back as soon as the train passes in the next year. Isn't it the same for me to guard you this year?" Zheng Jiawen laughed.

"What's more, a few years ago you were with me on New Year's Eve in Germany. Now that you are back, your brother is absent again. I just want my children to be with me for a new year. Why is it so difficult?" Tao Min He glanced at his daughter.

"Next year, next year will definitely be with you for New Year's Eve, don't be unhappy, come, my daughter will give you a piece of fish to eat." Zheng Jiawen smiled and picked the fishbone and put it in the mother's bowl.

After eating, the family went to the small gazebo in the yard, sat around the round table, ate melon seeds and chatted.

Zheng Jiawen felt bored and went back to the house, rolled up his sleeves and sorted out the books on the shelf. When he saw the box on the top floor, Zheng Jiawen was stunned for a while, stepped on the stool and took the box down.

There was a layer of dust on the box, Zheng Jiawen blew on it, and gently opened the box.

There was a stack of letters in the box and a small piece of pink spikelet from a horse whip used on the stage. Zheng Jiawen held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't even notice that Hou Shuyi came in.

Hou Shuyi sensed that something was wrong, so she didn't make a sound, and sat quietly on the stool behind, staring at Zheng Jiawen intently.

"It's been more than six years, it seems like a lifetime away." Zheng Jiawen muttered to herself, and sat down slowly. She still vaguely remembered the first time she saw Wang Pingjuan. The play was Ni Feng Fan Tea, and the little girl performed very well. When she got off the stage to practice in the back, she knocked off the glass lampshade used to light candles in the yard with the horse whip on the stage, and she was completely shocked.

She smiled unceremoniously at the time, and when the housekeeper found out, she stood up for Wang Pingjuan and tore off a fringe of the whip.

The past is vivid, but people have been buried in the loess.

Seeing Wang Pingjuan's old things, Zheng Jiawen felt uncomfortable. Wang Pingjuan's death was far away and sudden to her.

Thinking of Wang Pingjuan, Zheng Jiawen naturally thought of Nian Nian, sighed and closed her eyes, she was too negligent in this matter, how could she find Lin Shurou and where Nian Nian is now?Yang Huifen has not received Lin Shurou's letter for a long time.

"Why, are you bored in the room alone, looking at the token of love secretly?" Hou Shuyi approached, holding the tassel in her right hand from behind Zheng Jiawen.

Zheng Jiawen was taken aback, inexplicably someone came out, it was Hou Shuyi.

"What a token of love, it's just an old thing." Zheng Jiawen sat on the chair, didn't grab the tassels, and let Hou Shuyi play with it in his hands.

"Old stuff, you probably didn't need this when you were young, let me guess whose old stuff it is." Hou Shuyi stroked her chin and looked at Zheng Jiawen with a smile, "If I guess right, it's a gift from Niannian's mother." Yours?"

Zheng Jiawen laughed, Hou Shuyi is such a fine person, she will guess every time.

"This is a fringe on the horsewhip that Nian Nian's mother used to learn opera. I found it just now when I tidied up the shelves." Zheng Jiawen replied honestly.

Hou Shuyi nodded, sat next to Zheng Jiawen and said: "There must be a story, but I won't listen to this story. Since you recognize Niannian as a righteous daughter, then you can go to her mother's grave to worship for Niannian in a few days." .”

Zheng Jiawen turned to look at Hou Shuyi. At this moment, she wasn't sure whether what Hou Shuyi told her was the truth or was trying to test her, so she didn't know what to say.

"Look at your expression, you look like a villain trying to save a gentleman's belly." Hou Shuyi looked at Zheng Jiawen contemptuously, and returned the ear head, "I am a smart little girl, I will not look for trouble Yes, you have become ancient people, so why do I care about it, and if you didn’t succeed, I should care about it, you are not a sweet potato, if you treat me badly, I will just find another good partner.”

"You dare." Zheng Jiawen looked at Hou Shuyi. She was grateful for Hou Shuyi's understanding. The Hou style method comforted her and made her feel warm all over.

"Then take a look and see if I dare?" Hou Shuyi raised her eyebrows, turned around and ran out after speaking.

"Don't run away, you still want to find someone else, see if I can spare you if I catch you." Zheng Jiawen chased him out.

Hou Shuyi is anxious. She wears high heels and Zheng Jiawen wears flat shoes. This is simply unfair. Hou Shuyi wants to take off her shoes. The ground is cold to death in winter. She is reluctant to part with her feet. Look at the distance from Zheng Jiawen.

Seeing that Zheng Jiawen was about to catch up, Hou Shuyi hurried into the plum forest full of little red lanterns.

Ten plum trees were planted behind Zheng's house, and Hou Shuyi hid behind one tree and closed her eyes.

Zheng Jiawen approached quietly, and the faint light of the little red lantern on the tree shone on Hou Shuyi's face, making Zheng Jiawen feel beautiful inexplicably.On this New Year's Eve, because of Hou Shuyi's presence, she felt even more amiable.

"Do you think you can't see me with your eyes closed, so I can't see you? Is such a big person deceiving you?" Zheng Jiawen leaned on the nearby tree trunk and looked at Hou Shuyi.

Hou Shuyi slowly opened her eyes when she heard the words, glanced at Zheng Jiawen and said, "I'll give you a chance to repeat."

Zheng Jiawen approached with a smile, raised his hand and put it on the plum tree Hou Shuyi was leaning on, and said with a smile: "Miss, it's late at night, are you waiting for someone here?"

"Yes, have you seen my girl?" Hou Shuyi raised her eyebrows.

"Isn't your girl far away in the sky and close in front of you?" Zheng Jiawen said and stretched out his hand, "Beautiful lady, on this beautiful New Year's Eve, may I have the honor to ask you to dance?"

Hou Shuyi pursed her lips and put her hand on Zheng Jiawen's palm.

This conversation fell into Tao Min's ears, and he shuddered, pulling Mama Zhang away quickly.

"Ma'am, Second Miss and Second Young Mistress have such a good relationship." Zhang Ma said with a smile.

"I'm so tired of being crooked, I wanted to hide in peace, but who knew these two actors who could act broke in, oh, let's not talk about them, let's go, let's go." Tao Min quickened his pace.

Zheng Jiawen and Hou Shuyi didn't know that their mother saw their greasy scene, and they danced vigorously in the plum blossom forest.

A few snowflakes were slowly falling under the dark night sky. When Tao Min walked to the moon gate and glanced back, he felt a sense of beauty.

Not far away, there are plum forests intertwined, the little red lanterns on the plum trees are flickering faintly, snowflakes are floating in the dark sky, her daughter and her loved one are dancing, the corners of Tao Min's mouth are slightly raised, I hope the years will always be so quiet All right.

"Ma'am, it's snowing, do you want to call Second Miss and Second Young Mistress back to the house?" Zhang Ma asked from the side.

"No, today's New Year's Eve, let them make a fuss." After Tao Min said, he caught a glimpse of two people not far away kissing each other, and hurried away with Zhang Mama.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year the next day, after celebrating the early years, when Uncle Xu was driving, Hou Shuyi hooked Zheng Jiawen. Zheng Jiawen smiled and took out the money from his grandma and handed it to Hou Shuyi.

"It's fine if you snatch Xiang Lan and Xiang Tong's new year's money, but you also count on mine." Zheng Jiawen shook his head with a smile.

"I am the head of our family, so naturally I have to put the money in one place and take care of it." Hou Shuyi stuffed Zheng Jiawen's money into her bag.

This scene was clearly seen by Tao Min at the door.

Zheng Jiawen laughed when he heard the words: "Oh, what a hypocrisy, you asked for the New Year's money given to the two children by grandma and my parents, and found another red envelope and sealed it as your New Year's money for the two children. After a while, you You want to come out again and say that they will keep it for them, since it has to be in your hands, why do you give it any strength?"

"What do you know? This means that I gave it to them, but they are young, so they need me as a mother to keep them." Hou Shuyi said while wearing gloves, "Besides, I will remember the New Year's money for them every year. I'll give it to them."

Zheng Jiawen smiled and said nothing.

"What are you two talking about?" Tao Min approached and sat on a stool in the gazebo.

"It's nothing, we're chatting nonsense." Zheng Jiawen smiled.

"Nonsense? Come on, let's talk about something useful." Tao Min looked at her daughter and Hou Shuyi, and said very seriously: "This is the 1 yuan your father just allocated to you. It's not a small amount. I thought about it. Should the money be held by others? As the saying goes, if you are not in charge, you don’t know how expensive it is. The most important thing for a family member is to be able to settle accounts. If you want to settle accounts quickly, your head is quick to react. Come on, I will test you two. Whoever answers will be the head of the family. money man."

Hou Shuyi knew something was wrong when she heard the words, she silently glanced at Zheng Jiawen.

"Come on, Shuyi, let me test you first, what is 360 four plus 110 one plus 35 one equals, answer quickly."

Hou Shuyi blinked her eyes, what kind of brains did the head of the family need to be able to answer quickly.

"Hahahaha." Zheng Jiawen laughed, seeing Hou Shuyi deflated for the first time.

"Can't answer?" Tao Min glanced at Hou Shuyi, then at his daughter, "Come on, Jiawen, listen carefully, what is three plus five?"

Hou Shuyi's eyes widened instantly when she heard the words.

Zheng Jiawen was also stunned, and after realizing it, the laughter could not be stopped.

Hou Shuyi bit her lower lip lightly, stretched out under the table and pinched Zheng Jiawen's thigh, and smiled reluctantly: "Jiawen, mother asked you, how much is three plus five?"

Zheng Jiawen was in pain, looked at Hou Shuyi's expression, then looked at her mother, and said with a trembling voice: "Ten."

Ten, ten... Tao Min looked at his daughter in disbelief.

"Mother, look at the family text, you can't add within ten, how can you be in charge of the family." Hou Shuyi looked at Tao Min with a smile.

Tao Min had no choice but to stare at her daughter, put the [-] bill in front of Hou Shuyi, stood up by herself, turned around with a snort, and left, it's useless stuff.
