Chapter 51
Jiang Shuyun took her daughter from Jiang Shuxin, her brows were so wrinkled that the flies were almost caught.
"Did you feed her charcoal?"
Jiang Shuxin glanced at Jiang Shang's mouth full of black, but she was negligent.
"Have fed half a roasted sweet potato, you see, this lunch has been saved."
After he finished speaking, he ran out of the kitchen without looking at Jiang Shuyun's face, and brought water to Sibao and Li Nian who were still eating.
Sibao and Li Nian sat by the fire and ate roasted sweet potatoes, but Jiang Shuxin didn't even see him coming, and the two heads were still whispering together.
Seeing this, Jiang Shuxin quietly approached behind them with light footsteps, and leaned over to hear what the two girls were muttering.
But Sibao seemed to smell a familiar smell, and turned his head alertly in the next second, almost hitting Jiang Shuxin's head with this turn.
"So nervous, are you talking ill of me?" Jiang Shuxin stepped back slightly, straightened the head turned around by the Four Treasures, and asked casually.
Li Nian, who was sitting next to him, blushed immediately after hearing Jiang Shuxin's words. She looked at Jiang Shuxin and looked at the Four Treasures again. Bad talk.
Jiang Shuxin saw through her at a glance, and suddenly became playful, and immediately pretended to be a little angry: "Did you speak ill of me?"
This frightened Li Nian. She did file a complaint with Sibao just now, because Jiang Shuxin's appearance in the morning made her feel that Jiang Shuxin was a bit fierce.
"I, I'm just..." Li Nian
"Jiang Er, you are a bit fierce."
Li Nian had just admitted that he had spoken ill of her, when Sibao picked it up.
This made Jiang Shuxin surprised, "I'm a bit fierce?"
Is she vicious? Jiang Shuxin felt that her temper had been very good during this time, but Sibao even said that she was fierce. Now Jiang Shuxin was not happy.
Sibao saw that Jiang Shuxin was really unhappy, and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Shuxin's hand with the hand that had taken the roasted sweet potato, shook her head vigorously at her, and nodded slightly.
"You're not mean to me, but you are mean to your sister."
Jiang Shuxin is really not fierce towards Sibao, but she is not so friendly to others. Although she is fierce towards Li Nian, she pretends to play with her, but Li Nian is a young girl after all. At most, it is the most superficial, not to mention that Jiang Shuxin's cold face doesn't have much expression at all, and it looks really fierce.
"I'm not kidding my sister?"
Jiang Shuxin understood now, and calmly explained to the two of them.
Sibao tilted his head to look at Li Nian, Li Nian immediately closed his mouth and nodded quickly.
"Then don't tease her from now on." Four Treasures had no choice but to look at Jiang Shuxin and instructed her bitterly with a black and dirty little mouth.
Jiang Shuxin couldn't see her being so dirty, with a disgusted expression on her face, and said in a very perfunctory tone: "Okay, I won't tease her, only you. Wipe your mouth."
"Don't make fun of me!"
After Sibao shouted, Jiang Shuxin fed her mouth full of water, and then she wiped her face repeatedly with a wet handkerchief. After three or two strokes, Sibao's beautiful little face was restored; Li Nian was on the side. It was also cleaned up by Jiang Shuxin by the way.
Jiang Shuyun from the front yard came over with Jiang Shang in his arms, and after she put the people down, she called Jiang Shuxin to go to the front yard together, leaving the three little girls who couldn't cook in the back yard to burn on fire behind.
Under the leadership of the chef Li Chu, the two sisters of the Jiang family quickly prepared a table of meals for lunch.
In the main room, a group of people sat around the table, eating and chatting, a rare lively atmosphere,
Jiang Shuxin didn't eat in the morning, and she didn't eat a single bite of the roasted sweet potato. She was so hungry now that she was eating so much by herself that she couldn't even care about the Four Treasures beside her. It was Jiang Shuyun who took a few chopsticks for Four Treasures.
"Can you eat slowly and take care of the Four Treasures?"
Jiang Shuxin had no choice but to slow down and occasionally pick up Sibao's favorite food for Sibao, but Sibao had just finished eating the roasted sweet potatoes, and she couldn't finish eating half a bowl of rice.
Jiang Shuxin saw it, and stopped the chopsticks that served her, and started eating again. In addition to the Four Treasures, Li Nian and Jiang Shang were also unable to eat, which made Jiang Shuyun glared at Jiang Shuxin in annoyance.
Jiang Shuxin, who received Jiang Shuyun's eyes, did not hide, and held up the teacup with wine on the table, "Happy New Year everyone!"
When the others were surrounded by her, they immediately raised their glasses and shouted Happy New Year happily; Jiang Shuyun had nothing to say now.
The meal took a while, and it didn't end until Jiang Shang and Li Nian, who were woken up in the morning, were too sleepy to open their eyes.
On New Year's Eve, it was necessary to keep the year old, and it was good for a few children to sleep during the day, so Li Nian and Jiang Shang were taken back to the house to take a nap.
The Four Treasures, who had lost their temper in the morning, couldn't sleep now, so Jiang Shuxin had to take her to clean up the table and go to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
"If you don't sleep now, you can't quarrel to sleep at night, do you know?"
Jiang Shuxin made it clear to Sibao in advance, because she was afraid that she would not let her sleep at night and be petty.
Sibao nodded heavily when he heard the words, indicating that he knew, and then seriously helped Jiang Shuxin to clean it up.
Although Four Treasures didn't want to take a nap, Jiang Shuxin herself was sleepy to death. She slept late last night, woke up early in the morning, and had to work hard to coax the angry Four Treasures, so after the two of them packed up their things, Jiang Shuxin went back to the house and fell asleep.
Seeing that she was so sleepy, Sibao felt a little sorry for her tantrums in the morning. She stood beside the couch and secretly kissed Jiang Shuxin's forehead before running away quickly.
Li Chu and Sibao were the only two people in the family who didn't sleep. The two sat by the fire in the backyard chatting each other. When Li Chu said Sibao, he responded, and he didn't forget to take a bite. Snacks in hand.
The time passed slowly, Jiang Shuyun took the two little girls who had slept out of the room one after another, and only Jiang Shuxin was still in the room groggy asleep.
Four Treasures did not feel relieved to follow Jiang Shuxin’s usual appearance and went in and watched it several times. Jiang Shuxin was all sleeping very deeply, and Four Treasures were eager to do something next to her, but they didn’t have the courage. It really woke Jiang Shuxin up.
It wasn't until dinner time that Jiang Shuxin got up from the bed half-dreaming, then sat down at the dining table with her apparently still awake body leaning on her body, weakly tugging at the food in the bowl.
Fortunately, Si Bao, who was holding the bowl herself, didn't bother Jiang Shuxin; Jiang Shuyun, who was still somewhat dissatisfied with her, lost her temper when she saw her appearance, but was rather worried.
"Aren't you feeling well? Why don't you look so good."
"It's okay." Jiang Shuxin swallowed the food in his mouth, then raised his head and said, "I didn't sleep well, don't worry, eat and eat."
Seeing that the tone of her speech was almost the same as usual, Jiang Shuyun was convinced that she was all right and didn't ask any more questions.
In the evening, it is necessary to keep the year old. In previous years, Jiang Shuxin would light a house full of candles to chat with Jiang Shuyun. When the time came, he would go back to the house to sleep, which was extremely boring.
There were several more people this year, and Jiang Shuxin was also much busier than in previous years. He still lit the candles in the house as he did, and then he had to put food in the yard and add firewood to the fire.
Although the snow has not continued since the snowfall a few days ago, the temperature at night is still very cold. Although they are sitting by the fire, everyone is wrapped in thick cotton coats.
Li Nian and Jiang Shang were playing wildly in the courtyard, Sibao also played with them, and very generously let Jiang Shuxin go to the house to move her little wooden horse out, and let the two little girls take turns to sit .
But soon, the difference between taking a nap and not taking a nap in the afternoon became apparent.
Li Nian and Jiang Shang were still full of energy. The Four Treasures, who insisted on not sleeping, couldn't stand it any longer. They were playing well at first, but they wilted after a while. They trotted a few steps to Jiang Shuxin's legs and sat down next to her.
"What's the matter, stop playing with them?"
Jiang Shuxin grabbed Sibao's shoulders and whispered in her ear.
Four Treasures shook his head lightly, laying his entire upper body on Jiang Shuxin's thigh, almost not letting her pick it up.
Jiang Shuyun and Li Chu chuckled at the side, thinking that the Four Treasures were too sticky to Jiang Shuxin.
Jiang Shuxin himself sensed the sleepiness of the Four Treasures, reached out and pinched the back of the Four Treasures' necks, and immediately lifted the person from his lap.
"Go play with them, I can't sleep without me."
Her attitude was firm, but the Four Treasures didn't care. She looked up at Jiang Shuxin with her head up, her hands on her knees, and she acted like a spoiled brat on her legs, "Stop playing, I'll take a break."
Jiang Shuxin didn't know what to do. After looking around, he stood up and took the Four Treasures with him. Jiang Shuyun, who was on the side, held Jiang Shuxin in an unknown place.
"She may be tired from playing, just let her rest."
"It's okay, sister, she's just lazy."
Jiang Shuxin didn't give Sibao a chance to speak, and hugged her and walked to Jiang Shang, who was still riding a pony.
"Let Rang, let Aunt Sibao also sit on the pony."
The obedient Jiang Shang quickly and obediently gave up his seat when he heard the words, staggeringly slipped off the back of the wooden horse, and pulled the Four Treasures to sit.
Four Treasures were even more annoyed now, and turned around angrily, leaning on Jiang Shuxin's body and refusing to move.
Jiang Shang was at a loss. He didn't know what happened to his aunt. He looked at Jiang Shuxin eagerly, and twisted his fleshy little fingers in embarrassment.
"It's okay, if my aunt doesn't sit, then you can sit by yourself."
Jiang Shang and Li Nian happily played the Trojan horse again, and the angry Four Treasures were brought to the side by Jiang Shuxin.
"Didn't you say in the afternoon that you shouldn't be clamoring to sleep at night?"
"But I'm sleepy." The Four Treasures were somewhat assertive, unaware that tonight was different from other times.
Jiang Shuxin had a headache for Sibao's unreasonable appearance, but she had no choice but to continue trying to make it clear to her, "My sister and Xiao Shang haven't slept yet, isn't it bad for us to go to bed now?"
"Really?"
In fact, it's not that the Four Treasures are unreasonable. When she was in Yu's house, no one would let her keep her old age. Aunt Yu was busy, and other people would not care about her at all. At most, they would not starve her, so the Four Treasures wanted to eat. She eats and sleeps when she wants to. To put it mildly, no one is forcing her to keep her year old. In fact, no one cares about her, so she doesn't understand the matter of keeping her year old.
But now Jiang Shuxin said it was not good, even if she didn't understand, she would listen carefully.
"Really, I know you're sleepy, but let's bear it a little longer, shall we? Go to bed when you're ugly."
Jiang Shuxin felt that all her life's patience was spent on the Four Treasures, but she didn't feel anything wrong. On the contrary, she was very happy. Seeing the Four Treasures become sensible, she would feel distressed but even more proud. .
So Four Treasures fought hard and began to play with Jiang Shuxin. Jiang Shuxin became a tool man, helping a few girls take turns rocking the rocking horse.
Finally, accompanied by Jiang Shuxin's coaxing and deceiving, the Four Treasures endured abruptly for two hours. In the end, they were so tired that they fell asleep on Jiang Shuxin's back, and the rest of the people also went into the room to sleep.
Early the next morning, Jiang Shuxin and Sibao were still sleeping when they heard Jiang Shuyun knocking on the door outside the house, saying that someone was coming.
It is not common for people to come to the door on the first day of the new year.
