"Mom, this is my New Year's gift to you."
Shen Ningsi knew that Fang Xiwan had everything she needed, so she used the blacksmith stove she had improved to make her a very sharp sword.
When Fang Xiwan saw the sword box in Shen Ningsi's hand, her eyes lit up instantly!
She didn’t expect that Shen Ningsi was so thoughtful and even prepared a New Year’s gift for her.
"I see that you like to wield swords and knives, so I asked someone to buy one made of the best black iron." When Shen Ningsi finished speaking, Fang Xiwan had already pulled out the long sword from the box.
Suddenly, the sound of swords rang out.
"Good sword!" Fang Xiwan is a person who understands swords. Just by listening to the sound, she can tell whether the sword is good or bad!
"Sisi, did you make this yourself?" Suddenly, Fang Xiwan felt something strange, because the sound of this sword breaking through the air was even worse than the one she usually used!
You know, the long sword she carries with her was bought at a high price and is out of stock!
However, the long sword in his hand was obviously not made by a famous master!
"Well, I modified the stove and the temperature inside increased a lot." Shen Ningsi had never told anyone about this, so Fang Xiwan knew about it for the first time.
"Are you serious? If every soldier could use a sword like this, their survival rate on the battlefield would be much higher."
Fang Xiwan was indeed the daughter of a general. When she saw the long sword, she had many thoughts in mind.
"Yes, I specially asked my master to make this sword. It is lighter and thinner, but extremely sharp." As soon as Shen Ningsi finished speaking, Fang Xiwan nodded with a look of agreement.
As the two were talking, Gu Hongxing walked in from outside. Seeing the sword in Fang Xiwan's hand, he was about to take it, but Fang Xiwan dodged it with a beautiful move.
"You little brat, what are you doing?" Fang Xiwan placed the sword behind her back with great care and looked at Gu Hong with a wary look.
"Mom, this is the sword that Sisi had made." Gu Hong recognized it at a glance.
He originally thought that this was made for him by Shen Ningsi, but when he went to ask the master just now, the other party told him that it had been taken away by the lady.
So, he returned to the villa excitedly, but he didn't expect that the sword Shen Ningsi gave him was actually in his mother's hand!
"Yes, this was made specially for me by Sisi!" Fang Xiwan said with certainty, then took out the sword and looked at it with reluctance.
"This is the best gift I have received in all these years!" Fang Xiwan became more and more satisfied the more she looked at it.
If possible, she really wanted to take it to Gu Zhen and show off! People who practice martial arts have a special preference for weapons!
Gu Hong saw the happy look on his mother's face, and knew that he could forget about getting the sword.
Then, he looked at Shen Ningsi beside him with a sad face.
"Sisi, Mom has already prepared a New Year's gift, but what about mine? Don't tell me you didn't prepare any for me!"
Fang Xiwan immediately realized why her son came here this time. She coughed lightly, took the sword in her hand, found an excuse and left.
"Then have you prepared anything for me?" Shen Ningsi asked instead of answering, and then looked at Gu Hong with anticipation.
"Of course I will wait until New Year's Eve to give you the New Year's gift!" Gu Hong almost took out the New Year's gift for him, but he thought of something and changed his mind.
"Well, let's wait until New Year's Eve. I'll go to the kitchen to see what we're having for dinner!"
After Ana Shen finished speaking, she walked towards the kitchen.
Everyone looked very happy these days. Shen Ning originally wanted to buy some things for the Spring Festival, but a few days ago, his people sent so many things that he couldn't finish them even if he ate them after the New Year.
So, this year their family only bought some beef, mutton and pork. Of course, she also ordered the beef from others in advance, because cows were not allowed to be slaughtered casually in this era.
If someone secretly kills a cow and the government finds out, they will be punished.
Moreover, she seemed to have never eaten beef since she came here, so she was particularly concerned about the meals these days.
After listening to this, Gu Hong didn't say anything, but followed her to the kitchen, and Shen Ningsi followed him.
"Madam, the kitchen smells strongly of cooking fumes. You're still wearing new clothes. Please get out now! Don't let them get dirty!"
Liu said anxiously when she saw Shen Ningsi walk in.
Only then did Shen Ningsi realize that he had just forgotten to take off his clothes.
"It's okay, I'm just here to take a look and will leave in a while." Shen Ningsi looked inside. Although they were already cooking, the smell of oil smoke was not very strong.
"Madam, you are here to see how the beef is cooked, right? Don't worry, the previous owner often cooked beef at home, so my wife still knows a little bit."
Shen Ningsi also knew that Liu knew about her cooking skills, and she felt relieved when she heard her say that.
"Okay, I won't go in. Let's make two flavors of beef, one with a little bit of chili, and the other a lighter flavor for the kids!"
After listening to this, Liu nodded, and Shen Ningsi left with peace of mind.
Gu Hong followed behind her, his eyes never leaving her.
"What's wrong? Is there something dirty on my face, or is this new dress dirty? Why do you keep looking at me like that?"
Shen Ningsi also saw Gu Hong’s eyes, and then reached out and touched his face, but there was nothing.
"You look so beautiful in this bright red dress. 'Skin as white as snow' is the perfect way to describe you right now."
Gu Hong spoke nice words at this moment as if they were free.
"Tsk, why are you so sweet all of a sudden? Tell me, is there something you want me to help you with?"
After Shen Ningsi finished speaking, he took two steps back.
"Ahem... Madam, the night is long and I have no desire to sleep. Can we find some place to sleep tonight?"
After Gu Hong finished speaking, he looked at Shen Ningsi eagerly. Because he had to clean up the account books these days, Shen Ningsi returned to the room very late.
"I thought so, so that's what you were planning!" Shen Ningsi looked at him unhappily!
"What am I planning? It's just that this winter is too cold. Without you to keep me in bed, my heart feels even colder."
Gu Hong said with a sad face.
"Tonight won't do it. I still have to teach Xiu, Wen, Xiuwu, and Yun'er how to do the accounting. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I've noticed that these kids learn very quickly. We can't let them down!"
After saying this, Shen Ningsi paused again.
"Especially Yun'er. She's going to get married in the future, so we must teach her about household chores early on!"
