Farmhouse with a little field

Chapter 376 This letter is not a report of safety
Han Duyue and the others were busy until very late before they finally packed up all their things, and then they fell asleep. It was not until the sun shone brightly the next day that Han Duyue got up. When he went out to fetch water to wash his face, he He saw that Han Qingmei had changed into her usual clothes and was cooking in the kitchen.

"Mom, you woke up so early, why don't you sleep a little longer?" Han Duyue asked, yawning.

This was a very common greeting, but Han Qingmei couldn't help blushing when she heard it: "It's getting late, Song Ning and the others have already woken up."

"Then why didn't I see them?" Han Duyue swept around the yard, but didn't see a single person, and even Xiaonian, who was no longer on the bed, went somewhere.

While kneading the dough, Han Qingmei said, "I heard from Su Ran that they seem to be hanging out for a while to practice their fists."

"But don't they usually practice boxing and kicking in the yard?" Han Duyue blinked, and these people ran out in a leisurely manner today.

Han Qingmei's face turned red suddenly: "Maybe... Maybe the yard is not big enough."

Looking at Han Qingmei's appearance, Han Duyue suddenly realized that these people were probably afraid of disturbing Han Qingmei and Li Hao's rest, so they shifted their positions to practice boxing and kicking.

But seeing her mother being so shy, Han Duyue didn't dare to say it even if she figured it out: "Oh, so that's the case, then I'll go out and ask them to come back for dinner."

"Okay, but don't go too far." Han Qingmei was a little embarrassed to go to see Han Duyue, so she just warned her.

Leaving the house, Han Duyue walked slowly along the road to the mountain, breathing the cold winter air, looking at the withered and yellow weeds at his feet, Han Duyue felt very happy, such a day is really good.

It stands to reason that when Han Qingmei married Li Hao, the two children would naturally change their surnames to Li, and the family resettled.

But Li Hao didn't mention this moment at all, he just went to the town to reapply the household registration, and Han Duyue and Xiaonian were still called by their original names, but the household head on the household registration was changed to Li Hao.

Holding the new household registration that Li Hao brought back, Han Qingmei's eyes couldn't help turning red: "Li Hao, you are so kind to me."

"Qingmei, have you forgotten what I said that day in front of the two children? I said that I will do my best to prevent you from being wronged. If you can't even do this little thing, why are you here?" Let's establish prestige in our family?" Li Hao took Han Qingmei's shoulders and raised his hand to help her wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

In this kind of harmonious atmosphere, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, because this year there are more men in the family, so Han Qingmei is much more relaxed, just need to do custom things at home, as for buying new year's goods, killing new year's pigs, etc. All such matters are left to Li Hao.

So Li Hao transformed from an extraordinary cultural person into an all-round good family man, especially when he saw him calmly directing the butcher to slaughter pigs, Han Duyue felt as if he had seen the gate of a new world.

The slaughtered Nian pig couldn't be eaten by herself, so she sent a lot to acquaintances in the village, and exchanged some things from other people's homes, which made her feel that such a small life was really good.

And the only shortcoming in these days is that Song Ning went back to Fucheng to celebrate the New Year.

Song Ning originally thought about not going back, but this year Song Ning's parents wrote in person, saying that they wanted Song Ning to go home together for the New Year.

Although her parents didn't treat him well, they were Song Ning's biological parents after all. If he really didn't go back, it would be unfilial, so even if Han Duyue really wanted Song Ning to accompany her to celebrate the new year, she didn't You can't stop him from letting him go.

On New Year's Eve, the Han family set off firecrackers in the morning, at noon, and in the evening. The three meals were very lively, especially the lunch, which was very rich.

After the new year, it is a new year. On the first day of the new year, Han Duyue received red envelopes from many people in the family, except for Li Hao, Han Qingmei, Xiao Linniang, and even Song Da and Song Er. Come to give yourself a red envelope.

"Miss, although we are servants, the lady doesn't think of us as servants, so this red envelope must be indispensable. Miss, you should keep it carefully, maybe we will meet again in the future." Song Da and Song Er Standing in front of Han Duyue with a smile on his face, one of them held a red envelope in his hand, with a smug smile on his face.

"..." Han Duyue suddenly thought of the situation when he gave red money to these two people before, and suddenly didn't want to accept these two red envelopes, how could he break it?
"Miss, why don't you take it? Could it be that our red envelopes are too small?" Song Er urged.

"..." At this moment, Han Duyue felt that she suddenly understood the feeling that Song Da and Song Er didn't want wages, but she still chose to accept the red envelope, "Well, thank you so much."

Before Song Da and Song Er had time to say polite words, Han Duyue handed back the red envelope again: "Speaking of which, you have helped me so much before, and I didn't give you any rewards. It's the first day of the new year, so let's give you the year-end rewards from last year."

Now Song Da and Song Er were a little dumbfounded, how could anyone send back the red envelope just after receiving it.

"Song Da, Song Er, why don't you take it? Could it be that I gave you too little year-end rewards?" Han Duyue tilted her head innocently, with a vague smile on her lips .

Seeing Song Da and Song Er's faces getting darker and darker, Han Duyue smiled and withdrew his hand: "I didn't intend to give you bonuses, let alone use the red envelopes you gave me, your red envelopes are so rare , I must keep it well, but the way you look now is really funny."

Only then did the Song brothers realize that they were being played by Han Duyue, and their faces turned darker immediately, but listening to the part of Han Duyue's words, the two felt warm in their hearts.

After the sixth day, Han Duyue began to look forward to Song Ning's return. He said he would come back this morning, so he should be back soon, right?
It's just that Han Duyue didn't hear from Song Ning until the tenth day of the lunar new year. She couldn't wait any longer, so she simply ran to the town to inquire about the news.

"Uncle Li, do you know when Song Ning will come back?" Han Duyue felt that Li Kaishi and Song Ning had some connection in business, so he might know Song Ning's plan.

Unexpectedly, Li Kaishi frowned and shook his head: "Years ago, the son said he would come back sooner, but he still doesn't believe it. Maybe there is some business delay."

"Maybe, I'm just a little worried, so I came to ask. If Uncle Li has news about Song Ning, he must tell me." Now Han Duyue is even more worried. Could it be that Song Ning really met her? What trouble?
"It must be, Xiaoyue, you don't have to worry too much. The young master has traveled to the north and south many times, and he has experienced a lot of things. Nothing will happen. Don't worry." She wanted to stay for dinner, so she didn't force her to stay, she just found someone to take her home.

Han Duyue waited for another two days before she finally got some news. She received a letter from Song Ning.

In the letter, Song Ning only said that she had something to do at home, so she delayed her trip, told herself not to worry, and told her to keep all the letters, but didn't say anything else.

This letter can't help but make Han Duyue feel a little strange. The previous explanation is reasonable, but what does it mean to ask yourself to keep the letter well?
When Song Ning was not in the county, she did write a few letters to herself, but they were all letters to keep her safe. There should be nothing special about it, right?

But Han Duyue always felt that this letter was not simply to keep her safe, but after going through all the letters Song Ning had written to her before, she couldn't find any clues, so she had to put this matter in the side.

"Xiaoyue, what did Song Ning say in the letter?" The Han family was also worried about Song Ning these days, knowing that Han Duyue had received the letter, Han Qingmei came over to ask.

Han Duyue didn't express his doubts, but just said something reassuring: "He just said that he has something to do at home, so he came back late, let us not worry."

"That's good, now you can feel at ease." Han Qingmei breathed a sigh of relief.

After receiving this letter, there was no further news from Song Ning. The day slipped and it was the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, and Song Ning naturally hadn't come back yet.

Han Duyue got up early that day, and was thinking of going to the town again to see if he could get some news from Li Kaishi, but before he went out, two very unexpected people came to his house guest.

A very luxurious carriage stopped at the door of Han's house. After moving the footstool, the first person to get out of the carriage was a girl wearing a plain velvet embroidered jacket and a silver and white Wu cotton dress between pink and white. .

She first looked up at the gate of the Han family, and then turned around to help the woman in real purple plain makeup and flowered jacket who got off the carriage.

"Auntie, this should be Miss Han's home." The girl opened her mouth softly, and if you carefully identify it, you might be able to hear the disdain in her words.

The middle-aged lady nodded slightly, and her eyes were full of disdain: "It's really a small family, without even a plaque. Come on, let's go in and have a look."

Those who came were Song Ning's mother, Zhang Yuelian, and one of his cousins, Yi Qian.

Han Duyue never thought that at this point in time, her family would welcome such a guest, so when she saw Zhang Yuelian and Yi Qian appearing in front of her, Han Duyue didn't react immediately.

"Hmph, it's really rude, and you don't say anything when you see a distinguished guest, but stand here stupidly, how decent is this!" Zhang Yuelian has always disliked Han Duyue, and she was also very dissatisfied with what she said.
