“It’s the end of the year, and it’s time to prepare New Year’s gifts for each household. Bring last year’s list and I’ll take a look at what’s been given.”

 “Yes, ma’am.”

When Cherry left, Du Jingyi recited the list several times in her mind, deepening the impression. She already had a photographic memory, so after repeating it a few times, she remembered the list in her mind. .

After getting the booklet for last year's gifts, she read through it and quickly picked out a few people on the secret list, and then skipped the ones without leaving any trace, even Yingying, who had been waiting for Du Jingyi for many years. Didn't see any difference.

 After reading the brochure, Du Jingyi said with a smile.

"This year's supplies will be prepared according to the same situation. By the way, Mr. Leng must have brought a lot of good goods when he came back from Quanzhou. You can pick and choose and keep the ones that are suitable for you. I will send them to you." My parents and Uncle Han’s family, didn’t they have a granddaughter a few days ago, so it’s time to give gifts.”

 “I understand, ma’am.”

After Cherry left, Du Jingyi sighed slowly. After today, there is no turning back.

Outside, the north wind gradually picked up, and pedestrians bundled up tightly, thinking that after this trip back, they would change into winter cotton clothes.

 Seven days later, it was a rare sunny day.

Although the sunny days in winter are not as good as those in summer, it is still very comfortable to see the warm sunshine.

Du Jingyi knew that Mr. Du and Mrs. Du were going to the Han family to deliver New Year's gifts, so he "happened" to visit them. When they saw Du Jingyi coming, the couple felt a little strange.

“Why are you here so early in the morning?”

“It’s such a nice weather. I wanted to invite my parents to the general’s mansion to sit there, but my daughter just arrived at the door and saw you going out. What are you doing?”

“I’m going to give a New Year’s gift to your Uncle Han’s family, and take a look at his little granddaughter by the way.”

“What a coincidence, the General’s Mansion has also prepared New Year’s gifts, why don’t I have someone go back to pick them up and we can send them over together.”

"Okay, hurry up and don't be too late."

“Don’t worry, mother, we can set off soon.”

Du Jingyi kept his promise, and the gifts were placed on the carriage, so starting from the General's Mansion, it didn't take long to arrive at the door of Du's house.

So the family of three headed towards the Han family.

Handu and his family are not far apart, so they often come and go.

Nowadays, the Han family also has a large number of grandchildren and is very lively. When the head of the Han family heard about the arrival of the Du family, he was also full of smiles and called for the whole family to go out to greet them.

The leader, Uncle Han, is older than Mr. Du, but he doesn't look much older. It's just that compared with Mr. Du's roundness, he looks slimmer and taller, so he looks in good spirits.

 “Uncle Du, Aunt Du.”

 “Uncle Han, Aunt Han.”

After the people on both sides saw the ceremony, the head of the Han family looked at Du Jingyi and said.

“Tangtang is here too, why didn’t you tell me earlier? Come on, let the kitchen prepare some good wine and food. We want to have a good meal at noon today.”

Hearing this, Mr. Du said without being polite at all.

“Wine and food, it’s not a feast without wine, so Master Han, please don’t be stingy, bring out two bottles of your precious jade wine, and let us all have a try!”

Hearing this, the head of the Han family said with a defensive look.

"I know you didn't let them go. I only got thirteen bottles in total. Now you have drank seven or eight bottles for me, and you are still thinking about it." "That's natural, good wine, everyone likes it."

The people of the Han family looked at Mr. Du with a smile, knowing that this was something they could only say if they were close to them, so they didn't mind at all and hurriedly invited them in.

When he entered, Du Jingyi glanced at Uncle Han twice more than usual. He thought it was nothing, but Mrs. Du beside him saw something strange, so she gently pulled Du Jingyi's sleeve.

Du Jingyi felt that something was inappropriate, so he just smiled and let it pass.

 Entering the front hall, everyone took their seats.

Mrs. Du looked at the eldest daughter-in-law of the Han family and asked with a smile.

"There are a lot of things at the end of the year. Your daughter has been born for a long time, so I have only been here twice. Now, as a New Year gift, I have prepared some things for the child, so don't dislike it."

"Aunt Du, you're welcome. The children at home receive things from you every now and then, and the small warehouse is almost full of them."

Seeing this, Mrs. Han also interrupted.

 “Brothers and sisters are just polite.”

“Sister-in-law is joking, we are as close as one family, this is what we should be doing.”

Although the Han family and the Du family are not related by blood, they are much better than the relatives of the Du family, so the two families chatting and laughing together are quite lively.

During the dinner, Du Jingyi didn't express much. He just watched his father, Uncle Han and the two brothers of the Han family drinking happily. This precious jade wine was not intoxicating, but the taste was also very special.

Du Jingyi tasted a little and thought it was very good, but she did not forget the purpose of coming here today.

"Mr. Leng went to Quanzhou a few days ago and received a bunch of dendrobium pearls from several foreign businessmen. I saw that they were well-proportioned and had a good luster, so I brought them here specially for Aunt Han and the two of them. Sister-in-law, it would be appropriate to make some jewelry for the New Year."

 After saying that, Du Jingyi asked Yingtao to take out Nanzhu.

Everyone came up to look at the Nanzhu. Only the head of the Han family on the side accidentally saw a mark on the box, and his eyes darkened in an instant.

When he looked at Du Jingyi again, there was both temptation and doubt in his eyes.

“These beads are beautiful, and they are as shiny as a puddle of water.”

 “Thank you Tangtang for remembering us.”

                                       

Although Du Jingyi was speaking to Aunt Han and the others, her eyes met the Han family's head. She was not afraid of the Han family's doubts, which made the Han family head appreciate her even more.

After making eye contact, both of them understood that this situation was bound to come sooner or later. It was good to be familiar with each other and save a lot of trouble.

 So, after the Du family left that day, the Han family also prepared for the New Year's ceremony.

They began to be sent out one after another. Until the afternoon of the fourth day, the head of the Han family and Mrs. Han went to the Du family in person, and then came to the general's mansion. In such a situation, people outside had nothing to say.

After all, with the current status of the General's Mansion, even if Du Jingyi is the younger of the two, they should still go to the door this time.

 Entering Xitang Courtyard, the cherry came out.

“Master Han, Mrs. Han, please come inside. Madam has prepared refreshments and is waiting for you two to arrive.”

“The general’s wife is too polite, let’s ask for some tea before we leave!”
