The new house was bustling with people coming to help early in the morning. Of course, there were only a few familiar families. The rest of the people in the village were not very familiar to each other, so they did not come and go for the time being.
Shen Changshan and Shen Jingyuan went to buy vegetables early in the morning, and the house was already busy now.
The people who cooked the meals were these familiar families. Although they were new arrivals, there were many people in the village, so they prepared more food.
Before long, some women in the village came to help spontaneously, and even two people from the village chief's house came to help.
With many children playing here, the atmosphere is particularly lively.
Chen Li got up early in the morning and is helping now. She is wearing a goose yellow brocade dress today. The material was given by the Lu family and made by Lin Cuicui and Bai Yao together. It looks particularly good on her.
With Bai Yao's help, her hair was simply combed into a lily bun, with an auspicious hairpin inserted on each side, and a tassel hairpin hanging behind the bun. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
Time passed quickly. Today's weather was not good. It was gloomy and looked like it was going to rain or snow.
Shen Changshan and his men hung red silk at the gate, set off firecrackers, and scattered a lot of candy to the children gathered at the gate. Even some adults came to join in the fun.
Not long after, a carriage stopped at the door, and Shen Changshan hurried to greet it. Boss Wu, Wu Song, heard that the Shen family was moving today, so he came uninvited.
"Brother Shen, congratulations. I came here uninvited, please don't mind."
Shen Changshan's face was full of smiles. "How could that be? I'm so happy. Come in, please."
Shen Changshan had just settled Wu Song and walked to the door when he saw Chen Jian's carriage coming. The reason why he recognized his carriage was because he had seen it many times during the period of building the house, so he was naturally familiar with it.
"Master Chen, you are here too."
Chen Jian handed over the gift box in his hand and said, "Of course I'm here to congratulate you."
Although he was not very familiar with the Shen family, the creativity he got from Shen Li alone was worth the trip.
"Come in."
Shen Changshan did not refuse, took the gift box and took Chen Jian inside.
…
At the dock of Qingxi County, a luxurious ship slowly approached the shore. Lu Nian was wrapped in a fox fur cloak. The furry fox fur made her look even more beautiful and lovely.
"Brother, when will it arrive?"
"It's almost there. We'll be there soon after we dock."
"Uh-huh."
Lu Nian nodded his head heavily. Ever since receiving Chen Li's letter last time, the brother and sister loaded the gifts they had prepared onto the boat and set off the next day. When Master Lu came back from inspecting the farm, the two children had already run away.
When he saw that the room where his two children had previously prepared gifts was empty, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
The two children's behavior made him rush to ask the housekeeper. He was relieved after learning that they had brought thirty guards.
These thirty guards were recruited by him recently at a high price. They are all very skilled in their own ways. Of course, their monthly wages are also very expensive, but the Lu family does not care about that little money.
As soon as the brother and sister got off the boat, someone rented five horse-drawn carriages. After some people found out the location of Daohua Village, they headed towards that place in a mighty manner.
Arriving at Daohua Village, a guard stopped an old lady at the entrance and asked for directions. "Auntie, do you know how to get to the Shen family?"
Aunt Yang rolled her eyes and said, "There are quite a few people with the surname Shen in this village. Could you please tell me the name of the person you are looking for?"
The guard saw her greedy eyes looking at the carriage behind. The meaning revealed in her naked eyes was self-evident. He took out a small dime, played with it in his hands, and said seriously:
"Auntie, we are looking for Shen Changshan's family. Please show us the way."
Aunt Yang's eyes lit up when she saw Yin Zi. After hearing his question, she quickly replied, "Oh, it's his family. They just moved in. You've come at a very good time. They're having a housewarming party at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village today!"
The guard got the information he wanted and threw the silver to her. Aunt Yang then quickly asked, "Do you want me to help lead the way?"
"Need not."
Watching the carriage passing by her, Aunt Yang happily held the silver in her hand. This must be two taels, hey, I made a profit today.
The people in the carriage were obviously rich or noble, but I wonder why they were going to the Shen family?
Her eyes rolled around, she wished she could destroy his housewarming wine!
Thinking of this, he immediately put away the silver and walked towards the foot of the mountain. He could go to the county town any day. If he missed the excitement, he would never see it again.
"Brother, we came at the right time. Sister Ali and her family are moving today."
"Let me think about whether the gifts we brought are enough?"
"Anian, that's enough. If it's more, I'm afraid they won't accept it."
Lu Nian paused counting on his fingers, thought carefully, and nodded, "Brother, you're right. Can we stay here for a few more days?"
Seeing his sister's expectant eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse, "We can only stay here for five days, otherwise Dad will come with us."
"All right."
Five days is better than no time at all, and she is easily satisfied.
Chen Li had just finished the work in her hands and when she walked to the gate, she saw several carriages parked at the door. She was curious and walked over.
"Sister Ali!"
The next second, Lu Nian jumped off the carriage and threw himself into her arms.
Patting the little girl's head, Shen Li asked, "Why are you here?"
"We rushed here as soon as we received your letter." At this point, Lu Nian stood up and looked at her with a hint of condemnation in his eyes, "Sister Ali, if your letter was two days late, my brother and I wouldn't be able to come here today."
Then I heard the little girl mutter softly, "I almost missed it."
I pinched the soft flesh on the little girl's cheek. Maybe the food had improved a lot recently, and the baby fat on the little girl's cheek had grown a little more. It felt good to pinch the soft flesh.
"It's rare to come here, stay here for a few more days."
"Okay, okay!"
Lu Jing stood by with a smile watching them talk, without going forward to interrupt them. It was not until he saw Shen Changshan and the others coming out that he bowed.
"uncle."
"A Jing An Nian is here, come in quickly, it's windy outside."
"good."
Lu Jing ordered the guards to take all the gifts out of the carriage, then turned around and followed them in.
"Sister Ali, this new home is nice and beautiful."
Lu Nian was talking as he walked, and before he could say a few words, the girl saw Shen Xiaoya and immediately ran over.
"Duckling!"
"Anian!"
The two girls held hands and said in unison: "I missed you so much!"
After the words were spoken, the two looked at each other and laughed, and the silver bell-like laughter reached everyone's ears.
