Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 728 Hours of Memory
The end of the new year is approaching, and every household is starting to prepare for the new year. The market is very lively on the day of the market, and the business of Guan Wen's wine shop and fur shop is also very hot, and the guys are so busy that they are dizzy.

But the better the business, the happier they are. It's the Chinese New Year again, which means that they can get the things that the boss distributes at the end of the year again. It's no problem to have a good year.

Guan Wen sat with his legs wide open, breathing white air from his mouth, but his hands didn't stop, he was still calculating something carefully.A thick stack of account books was piled up on his left hand, and the inkstone on his right hand was full of ink.

Yang'er stood aside, holding an account book in his hand and looking at it seriously.

"Father, I can't see any problems with this account." Yang'er said: "I remember everything clearly, so there should be no problem."

Guan Wen didn't raise his head, just nodded and said, "Make a mark, I won't read this book later." After a pause, Guan Wen asked him, "Is this the account book over there?"

"It's the account book of a small shop that Uncle Shen asked Dad to take care of." Yang'er said: "The profit and loss are similar to those of previous years. The shopkeeper of that shop is an honest man, and he probably won't report false accounts."

Guan Wen nodded, put down his pen and sighed: "It's the Chinese New Year, and I don't know if your Fourth Uncle Shen will come back."

"It should be. Isn't everyone spreading the word that Uncle Shen's elder brother is going to be promoted? With such a happy event, Fourth Uncle Shen must come back to congratulate his elder brother."

Guan Wen smiled, stood up and patted Yang'er on the shoulder: "I've been looking at the account books all morning with me, are you tired too? Go down and rest for a while, and have lunch later."

Yang'er agreed, and Guan Wen asked him, "Are you going to the academy later?"

Yang'er nodded: "I still have to go and bring back some books that were left there. Chen Zhong said that during the Chinese New Year, everyone was busy at home and didn't have time to meet. In the afternoon, I plan to spend time with a few classmates. Let's get together."

Guan Wen nodded: "That's good too, classmate friendship is rare, and there is no harm in communicating with friends."

Yang'er smiled and said, "Yes."

"From your tone, you and the young master of the Wen family are very close?" Guan Wen said with a smile: "When will you invite your classmates and friends to your house as a guest? When the time comes, let your mother order someone to tidy up the table." Serve them with delicious food. Ever since you were sent to Wenjia Academy, you have rarely brought friends home, and your mother was worried that you would not be able to make friends in the academy, so she was worried about you."

Yang'er blushed immediately.

He was ashamed to tell Guan Wen, because he felt that he was not the real son of his parents, and bringing his classmates and friends home as guests was to cause trouble for his parents, so although he had been to several classmates' homes, he seldom brought friends home been here.Now hearing Guan Wen take the initiative to mention it, Yang Er felt a little embarrassed.

Guan Wen laughed twice: "In my opinion, years ago was a good time. When you get together this afternoon, you can set a date and let them come to your house as guests."

Yang'er nodded and said, "Okay."

Here, Guan Wen is looking at the account book, and over there, Li Xin is also summarizing the family's expenses over the past year.Counting the earned and spent, the addition and subtraction of the hatchback, there is still a considerable amount of money in the account book, and the various expenses of the family are not many, and they are all within the plan.

Li Xin smiled gratifiedly at Qing Ya: "Just don't spend money randomly, and give more rewards to everyone when the time comes."

Qingya smiled and said: "I will thank you, Madam, for them."

Li Xin took Liang'er in his arms, patted him, kissed his son's small face and said with a smile, "I give it every year. This year, it's just that there are many happy events at home, so I will give more. There is no thank you or not. Yes. I hope that next year everyone will still do their own work and do what they are doing well. This is better than anything else.”

While talking with Qingya, Youyou came in holding Mu Chun's hand, and seeing someone else was there, Youyou walked over step by step, politely saluted Li Xin: "Is mother busy?"

Li Xin smiled, and said in his heart: This kid is really clever.He beckoned and said, "Mother is not busy now, why did you and brother come here?"

Youyou ran to Li Xin's side, trying to get into Li Xin's arms, but she saw her younger brother nestled in her mother's arms, so she didn't get jealous and angry, she nodded her little face, raised her face and said to Li Xin: "Mom, The second elder brother drew a picture for me just now, and it looks good."

Li Xin looked at Mu Chun in surprise, and smiled softly: "What did Mu Chun draw? Can I see it too?"

Mu Chun smiled shyly, and moved the other hand behind her back to the front, grabbing a roll of drawing paper impressively.

Mu Chun held the drawing paper with both hands and handed it to Li Xin. Li Xin asked Guo Guo to hug Liang'er, took the drawing paper with her own hands, and slowly unfolded it.

Youyou took the opportunity to sneak into Li Xin's arms, her little head resting on Li Xin's shoulder: "Mother, look at the paintings drawn by the second brother. This is the mountain, this is the water, this is the fish, this is the tree, this is me and the second brother!"

After all, Mu Chun is young, and basically has no style of painting, and the landscapes, flowers and birds he paints are just a few simple strokes, which are far from the "beautiful" state that Youyou said.Although the drawing is not very good, it can be seen that Mu Chun is serious about drawing, because the coloring and filling in the back will take a lot of work to complete.

So Li Xin did not hesitate to praise and said: "The painting is beautiful, Mu Chun is really amazing."

Mu Chun blushed suddenly, and whispered very shyly, "Thank you, mother."

After all, it was Mu Chun's first work. Li Xin called Qing Ya and said, "Send this painting to the painting shop properly, and let the painting master frame it."

After hearing this, Mu Chun quickly waved her hands: "No need, no need..."

Li Xin smiled and said: "Frame it, this is Mu Chun's first painting. When Mu Chun grows up, this painting will be a memory of Mu Chun's childhood. How about mother putting away all your childhood memories?"

Youyou nodded quickly: "I know, I know! Mom! Just like the clay doll that Big Brother and Brother Kang kept, it's also a memory of their childhood, right?"

Li Xin nodded, and kissed Yoyo's face: "You're so smart!"

Youyou laughed, and looked at Mu Chun with bright eyes: "Second brother, just frame the painting. In the future, second brother will definitely be able to draw better pictures and become a great painter!"

Mu Chun's face turned even redder, Li Xin stood up and smiled and took his hand: "It's getting late, mother goes to the kitchen to see how the food is being prepared."

Youyou hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, mother should go to the kitchen to have a look."

Li Xin looked down at Yoyo and said softly, "You are not allowed to steal."

"... how can anyone else?" Yoyo rolled her eyes, but she didn't look at Li Xin.This is her guilty conscience.

Along the way, Yoyo kept talking non-stop. This child is very shy in front of strangers and never talks much, but he talks a lot around people close to him. He likes to talk to people, but he doesn't make people feel long-winded.Mu Chun listened and echoed a few words, and then the two little people would get together and laugh.

Ever since Aunt Cui talked to Mu Chun, Li Xin obviously felt that Mu Chun was in a better mood. He who only ate half a bowl of rice on weekdays can now eat a bowl of rice, and the smiles on his face also increased. Others will not have nothing to say.Although he is still not very close to her and Guan Wen, Li Xin thinks that in time, Mu Chun will regard this place as his own home.

Lunch is shared by the whole family. Guan Wen and Li Xin are the parents. The three children who are already able to eat by themselves are sitting below. Liang Er is hugged by Guo Guo and follows Li Xin. Feed Liang'er some complementary food.

There has never been a rule of "don't talk when eating" at home. Li Xin only asks that he can't open his mouth to talk when eating. After chewing and swallowing the food in his mouth, he can talk, so everyone at the dinner table chatted without saying a word. .

Youyou was asking Yang'er: "Brother is going out to meet his classmates in the afternoon, can you bring back some glutinous rice cakes from North Street for you to eat? Oh, and the second brother also wants to eat."

Yang'er laughed and said, "If you want to eat, you'll be dragging Muchun."

Yoyo pouted: "Then elder brother, do you want to help Yoyo take it?"

Yang'er shook his head: "No."

"why?"

"You're teething, mother told me not to give you too many sweets." Yang'er replied solemnly.

Youyou was very frustrated, and asked Li Xin pitifully: "Mother, can you have a small bowl for Yoyo? Half a bowl...Okay, just five small glutinous rice cakes, is five okay?"

Li Xin wanted to laugh when she saw her haggling, and was about to speak, but Mother Cao lifted the thick cloth curtain from the outside and came in through the door, saying, "Master, madam, the old man in the side courtyard has fallen ill again."

The corner of Guan Wen's mouth was smiling. Hearing Mama Cao's words, the smile on the corner of Guan Wen's mouth became concentrated.

Li Xin also forgot his original intention to speak just now, pursed his lips and looked at Guan Wen.

Guan Wen lowered his eyes and said, "Let the doctor see what's going on first, and then go and have a look after I have eaten."

Mama Cao hesitated a little, she looked over at Li Xin quietly, Li Xin nodded her head, and Mama Cao backed away.

Guan Wen didn't take another bite and put down his chopsticks. Yang'er naturally knew who was in the courtyard, but Guan Wen and Li Xin didn't speak, and he couldn't speak, so he simply didn't speak.Mu Chun didn't quite understand these things, and he never picks up topics, so he remained silent.

Yoyo didn't get Li Xin's permission, and seeing that everyone was silent, she couldn't help being a little frustrated, she pouted and said, "Mother, you haven't agreed to Yoyo yet..."

"It's not good to eat sweets, and your teeth will look ugly in the future, so you won't be beautiful." Li Xin explained softly, "If you want to eat glutinous rice cakes, let my mother make them for you, so don't trouble your elder brother to buy them for you. Even if you buy them back, In such a cold day, it will be cold after taking it back, and it will be even more sticky and unpalatable."

Yoyo casually said: "That mother cooks for Yoyo...and the second elder brother."

Li Xin nodded.She never puts too much sugar in her sweets.

She was basically full, so she also stopped her chopsticks and asked Qingya to feed Liang'er instead of her.Looking at Guan Wen, Li Xin said, "Let's go and have a look."
