Gu Xiuwu's eyes lit up immediately! He walked over and looked at Shen Ningsi expectantly.
Shen Ningsi: “…” Did she just say something wrong?
"What is dynamite?"
Gu Hong appeared behind her at some point, with a questioning look on his face.
"Hmm...it could be considered a weapon. It's made from something like sulfur. It can be used as a projectile. Even blowing up a city wall wouldn't be a problem."
Shen Ningsi thought about it for a while and finally told the story.
Gu Hong is a general, and he might have to go to the battlefield someday, so it would be better to give him more assurances.
"However, this weapon is too lethal! It should not be used unless absolutely necessary."
Ana Shen said seriously.
"The emperor's greed is terrible." Shen Ningsi raised his head and looked into Gu Hong's eyes seriously.
"Well, don't worry. If it is really produced, I will not use it easily." Gu Hong promised seriously.
Shen Ning nodded thoughtfully.
She is selfish and doesn't want anyone she cares about to get hurt if possible.
"Dad, Mom, this firework is so beautiful!" Following Gu Yuner's surprised cry, with a bang, a dazzling firework suddenly exploded in the sky, like a beautiful flower blooming in the dark night.
“So beautiful!”
Shen Ningsi couldn't help but be stunned. She didn't expect that in this era, she could see such beautiful fireworks. She could only say that the creativity of the working people was unimaginable.
"Mom, mom! This firework is as beautiful as you!"
After Gu Yuner finished speaking, she took Shen Ningsi’s hand, her face full of excitement.
"You girls just like these fancy things!" Gu Xiuwu curled his lips and felt jealous when he saw Shen Ningsi and Gu Yuner holding hands.
"Puchi...Brother Xiuwu, shame on you! You're clearly envious of me and mother, yet you're pretending to be such a grown-up!"
Having lived with Gu Xiuwu for such a long time, Gu Yuner certainly knew what his actions and expressions meant.
"Hmph... I didn't!" Gu Xiuwu's arrogance!
However, after saying this, she still secretly glanced at the hands of the two of them. How was this arrogant look different from Gu Hong's?
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt his hand being held by a soft and warm hand. "A real man should not say one thing and mean another! Otherwise, he will be like someone else and be disliked by others!"
After Shen Ningsi finished speaking, she glanced at Gu Hong who was looking at them infatuatedly. Seeing this, Gu Xiuwu immediately shook his head. He didn't want to be disliked by his mother like his father!
Gu Hong, who had just been looking at them with an infatuated look on his face, suddenly turned dark at this moment.
His kung fu was very good, so he could hear everything the mother and her son said clearly! He never thought that his beloved woman would actually say that he was annoying!
“Cough cough cough…”
Shen Ningsi also noticed the expression on his face and couldn't help coughing.
“Actually, your dad is still very cute when he’s not angry!” Shen Ningsi said casually, and the expression on the man’s face next to him gradually eased.
"Dad, this is the New Year's gift I bought for you!"
Gu Xiuwen was standing by, listening to their conversation silently, and at this time he took out the gift he had prepared for Gu Hong.
Based on his understanding of Gu Hong over this period of time, if he doesn't make him happy now, they may not be able to have a good New Year in the next few days.
Sure enough, after hearing him say this, Gu Hong looked over and immediately took the thing from Gu Xiuwen's hand.
"Dad, this is a peace amulet I got from the temple. If you wear this, you will be safe from now on. Even if you go to war, the Bodhisattva will bless you!"
Gu Xiuwen said this seriously.
"Damn it! Your father is such a skilled martial artist, how could I be hurt? But I appreciate your kindness, kid!"
Gu Hong was still very happy at this moment.
"Dad, this is Yun'er's New Year's gift to you!" At this time, Gu Yun'er ran over and handed the gift she had prepared to him.
The fireworks in the sky kept shining, making her little face red.
Looking at his sensible and obedient daughter, the dissatisfaction in his heart had long disappeared without a trace!
Then, Gu Xiuwu also presented the New Year gifts he had prepared. Gu Hongdu took them one by one, and finally looked at Shen Ningsi on the side with anticipation.
"Mom, what New Year's gift did you prepare for Dad?"
Gu Yun'er raised her little face and looked at Shen Ningsi with an expectant expression on her face.
Just after dinner, they brothers and sisters had received gifts from their mother, but they never saw their mother give the gifts to their father.
"Ahem... This is a gift I gave to your dad. What are you little brats looking at?" Shen Ningsi coughed.
When the children heard her say this, the puzzled expressions on their faces became even more intense, and they all refused to give in.
"Madam, General, the old lady asked when we'll make dumplings?"
At this moment, Liu came out from the side and asked with a smile.
Shen Ningsi and the others only noticed at this time that it was almost midnight.
"Mom, are there copper coins in the dumplings this year?" Gu Yun'er was immediately attracted by Liu's words.
"Yes, whoever eats the copper coin first will be the luckiest one this year." Shen Ningsi said with a smile.
"Yeah! Mom, I must be the first to eat the first copper coin this year!" After saying this, Gu Yun'er hurriedly ran into the house.
She wanted to see which dumpling her grandmother put the copper coin in, and when she stayed up all night to celebrate the New Year, she would find the dumpling!
Although Gu Xiuwen and Gu Xiuwu didn't say anything, they hurriedly followed Gu Yuner in.
"Sisi!"
Seeing that Shen Ningsi seemed to be about to go in, Gu Hong couldn't help but walk in front of her and block her way.
"I have put the New Year's gift on the bed. You will see it when you enter the room later." When Shen Ningsi finished saying this, her face turned red.
When Gu Hong saw this scene, his mind immediately began to wander, wondering what kind of New Year's gift Shen Ningsi had given him this time?
Despite this doubt, Gu Hong was not in a hurry. The gift was already in the room, so he would not imagine Wing running away. He followed her into the house.
He also wanted to eat the first dumpling of the new year with a copper coin on it.
