Chapter 116 Rewards
Dai Qingyun admired it a little. Sure enough, knowledge and heart are very important.

If Zhao Shi could be like Da Lang, she would not have done these things.

"Take good care of your wounds, your skin is so tender, remember to apply ointment every day." Gao Zhizhi really likes Dai Qingyun, and the chattering at the moment is just an order.

There are still a few days before the Chinese New Year, and everyone from the Dai family drove back to Shitou Village.

Dai Qingyun hadn't seen Mrs. Zhao in the past few days, and when he was going out to take a carriage, Mrs. Zhao saw her, his eyes were loose, his mouth moved, and he didn't speak.

Dai Qingyun was a little surprised by her reaction, don't be fooled by the stimulation, right?
"Why are you in a daze, come up quickly." Mrs. Li beckoned her to get into the car.

The snow has stopped today, and the road is easier to walk.

A few carriages rushed to Stone Village before dawn.

……

Lin asked several new servants to come to Shitou Village together. Although there are many people celebrating Chinese New Year this year, it is still not as lively as last year, and they are a little cautious.

"Fourth sister, let's go build a snowman." Shiro was not affected by these things, and after two days of returning home, he cheerfully dragged Gu Ran to find Dai Qingyun.

"Okay, let's pile it up by the gate." Dai Qingyun became interested when he heard it. It would be boring not to build a snowman in a snowy day.

So the three of them called Dai Qingrong and Dai Qingyi again, went to the gate, and piled up a snowman bustlingly.

Erlang also came out of the house, and said with a smile, "Silang, why didn't you call me?"

Shiro pouted, "Auntie won't let me..."

Gu Ran on the side quickly covered his mouth, looked at Erlang again and said with a smile, "Second brother, let's build a snowman together."

Dai Qingyun glanced at Gu Ran and smiled secretly, this kid reacted really fast.

Erlang had no choice but to look at Dai Qingyun.

In the past few days, he and Yu'er were pestered by their mother, and they stayed with her every day, so they had no time to look for Yun'er.

Dai Qingyun smiled at him, expressing his understanding.

A group of people made up a snowman noisily.

Lin took other female relatives to make dumplings in the main room.

"These children are not afraid of the cold."

"Hehe, we didn't play much when we were young. We love snowball fights in winter." Aunt Hong took the dumplings from Mrs. Lin and neatly stacked them on the board.

This year the population has increased, and there are more dumplings made, which are directly stacked on the board and then frozen outside.

Lin smiled, then turned to look at Gao Zhizhi, "You're not used to it, our Chinese New Year in the countryside is no better than in the county town."

"There's nothing you're not used to. It's better if there are more people." Gao Zhizhi said with a smile.

Since Mrs. Zhao is not here, it is obvious that everyone is in a much better mood.

Qiuyue also took other servants to make dumplings beside her, enjoying themselves happily.

……

At noon on the New Year's Eve, before the people of Stone Village started to be lively, several carriages came and stopped at the gate of Dai's house.

Claiming to be the father-in-law from the capital, he brought the emperor's imperial edict.

This time, the Dai family caused a stir, speculating whether it had something to do with the ice cellar.

The old man Dai didn't care about his leg injury, and hurriedly brought his family up to receive the order.

The father-in-law who took the lead in announcing the decree was a young eunuch, and he was born white and clean.

Seeing that the old man knew the rules very well, he nodded and opened the edict.

After chewing on the words for a long time, Dai Qingyun probably understood, that is to say, the Dai family has meritorious service, and the special reward is a hundred taels of gold and a thousand taels of silver. I also heard that two sons of the Dai family will go to the capital to take the exam next year, and they must work hard.

After reading the imperial decree, the little eunuch handed the imperial decree to the acting old man.

"Thank you, father-in-law. It's been a hard journey. Today's Chinese New Year, how about staying for a New Year's Eve dinner?" The old man sincerely wanted to keep them and his party for dinner.

After all, it's freezing and snowy, and it's Chinese New Year again.

At this time, Mrs. Lin also asked Aunt Hong to prepare a big purse, and she handed it to the little father-in-law herself, and said with a smile, "It's not easy for everyone to travel all the way, and this hard work is also our intention, so the father-in-law took it to drink some liquor."

The little father-in-law smiled and accepted the purse, "There is no need to eat, and the miscellaneous family has to rush back to report."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the female relatives beside him, "May I ask who is the Lord Gao?"

Gao Zhizhi hurried forward to salute.

Seeing her salute, the little eunuch quickly helped her up, "The county lord can't force it, the miscellaneous family came this time and brought a new year gift specially prepared by the empress, the county lord can take it."

The father-in-law behind him immediately brought a brocade box and handed it to her.

Gao Zhizhi saw that the box looked familiar, and his eyes warmed up, "This is, my mother gave it to her before..."

The little eunuch smiled and said, "Your Majesty said, the county lord is getting married now, I hope your life will be smooth, and it's all thanks to Mrs. Gao's painstaking efforts."

Gao Zhizhi nodded, hugging the box tightly, Da Lang saw this and stepped forward to support her.

"This is Mr. Dai Mingwen, right? My lady said, I hope you and your wife will sing in harmony and grow old together." The little father-in-law looked at Da Lang and unconsciously emphasized his tone.

The Tian family still cared about the Gao family, Gao Zhizhi was so moved that he couldn't hold back his tears.

"Thank you, ma'am, Mingwen will protect her forever." Da Lang wiped away Gao Zhizhi's tears, looked at her with a smile and said.

The little eunuch nodded, and ordered someone to bring up all the rewards, and put aside the New Year's gift specially prepared by the empress for Gao Zhizhi.

This can be regarded as beating the Dai family, Gao Zhizhi is not a girl from an ordinary family, she is backed by the Tian family.

The old man Dai sent the group away in person, surrounded by many watching villagers.

"This is from the capital!"

"Is it the father-in-law in the capital?"

"I heard it was said to be an imperial decree. It's terrible. The family has obtained the emperor's imperial decree."

"This is the carriage from the capital, it's very stylish."

"Shh, stop talking, they're out."

When the little eunuch and his party got into the carriage and left, the old man was immediately surrounded by people.

"Old man, what kind of reward did you get? The emperor sent someone here, so angry!"

"Didn't you hear just now, gold and silver! There are so many boxes!"

Grandpa Dai's leg hurts a bit, but he still smiled and said, "The ice cellar that Yun'er wanted has won the favor of the Tian family, and a notice has been issued that all cities and towns can build ice cellars."

"It's Chinese New Year today, everyone is going home for dinner, and all the little ones come to ask for money after dinner."

Everyone heard the old man's words, talked about the grandeur of the Dai family again and again, and went back while chatting about the imperial decree.

After all, Stone Village is the entire Fengxian County, and this imperial decree is the first one!

But what they don't know is that this time the Qin family also got the imperial decree and reward.

"Father, go back to the house." Dai Zhiyi's brothers helped Mr. Dai into the house.

The old man saw the people who were busy moving things in the courtyard, and he laughed, "It's a good time today, Zhiyi, you guys should make a good offering of this imperial decree incense, don't slack off."

"Yes, yes, I just took it to the main room and put it on the table."

"After dinner, we will build a new table and enshrine the imperial decree."

Mrs. Lin was also very happy, and called people to move Gao Zhizhi's things to her room first.

With so much gold and silver, the Dai family members were so happy that they couldn't find the north, and with some other rewards, Lin's small warehouse was directly full!
"It's a good thing our house has expanded, otherwise there would be no place to put so many things." Qian said with a smile.

"That's right, so much gold and silver dazzled my eyes." Sun also covered her mouth and smiled.

"It's all thanks to Yun'er. I didn't expect our Dai family to be favored by the emperor. Dalang Saburo also participated in the exam." Qian whispered in Sun's ear.

Mrs. Sun nodded, and glanced at Mrs. Zhao who went back to her room, "I'm afraid that sister-in-law is going to be angry again."

"Don't talk to her." Qian's waist is straight now, his son is promising, and the second wife is also making a living. Is it different after all.

Because there are so many people this year, the New Year's Eve dinner will be held in the main room of the new house next door.

There were four tables set up.

Dai Qingyun and the juniors sat together at a table.

"This year's dishes are so rich! Sis, I want to eat chicken drumsticks!" Shiro salivated as he looked at the dishes on the table.

"Wait a minute, grandpa hasn't spoken yet." Dai Qingyi grabbed his restless paw.

The others secretly laughed.

Sitting at the main table, the old man raised his wine glass and said, "This year, our family has become richer, Dalang Saburo is up to the challenge, Zhizhi is also filial and considerate, and I am very happy to be rewarded by the heavenly family."

"A family, there are always bumps and bumps. I hope you will remember that harmony is the most important thing."

"There are good things and bad things this year, so I won't say much. In short, I have to have a steelyard in my heart, what should be done and what should not be done."

After the old man said, let everyone move their chopsticks.

Mrs. Zhao saw that everyone was beaming, and she felt more and more unhappy. How can she be happy that the Zhao family is still in prison?

She has been enduring it these days, her eyes are swollen from crying, and Lin doesn't care about her, she finally understands, even if she gives birth to a promising son, so what, it's not as good as that dead girl Dai Qingyun!

Thinking of this, she looked at Dai Qingyun who was eating with bloodshot eyes.

She is happy!
Zhao's breathing became short of breath, and her heart beat a little faster. She regretted why she didn't directly strangle her to death!
"Mother, you eat this fried chicken heart. Aunt Hong's cooking skills are really good. The chicken heart is delicious and delicious."

Naturally, Mrs. Li saw Mrs. Zhao's eyes. She smiled and served Lin Mrs. Lin's food, and raised her voice again, "This heart must be fresh and not broken. If the heart is broken, it will be unpalatable."

"Hmph." Mrs. Zhao is a little afraid of Mrs. Li now. The bump on her head disappeared after two days. She snorted and lowered her head to eat.

But I was thinking in my heart, I must find a way to make Sifang feel bad.

Why are all of them happy and happy, this year when she returns to her natal family, she can only go to see her parents in prison!

Seeing that she admits cowardice, Mrs. Li doesn't talk to her anymore.

The dishes on the New Year's Eve were plentiful, everyone at Dai Qingyun's table was happy, and Shiro and Gu Ran's stomachs immediately became round.

After dinner, a group of people went out to set off fireworks noisily again.

It gets dark quickly in winter, and the sky is already pitch black after dinner.

But the village was decorated with lights and festoons, so it didn't look too dark.

"Brother, let me have some!" Dai Qingyun was a little excited, took the fire folder from the elder brother's hand, and stepped forward to light the fireworks.

Because last year's house also set off fireworks, many children who had eaten came to watch.

One is to watch the fireworks, and the other is to make money later!

"The fireworks are so beautiful this year!" Dai Qingyun looked up at the gorgeous sky, the corners of his mouth curled up.

Erlang walked to her side, reached out and touched her head, and said with a smile, "Yuner, happy new year."

Dai Qingyun's heart warmed, he remembered how he cried last year.

"Thank you, brother, happy new year!"
