Chapter 356 The first snow this year.
Lan Hui was also very active. She moved a big box out of nowhere: "Sister Chu Chu, these are all my treasures. You can choose a few."
There are many gems in the big box, some are processed but very rough, and some look like they have been polished casually, and there are more rough stones.
Chu Chu couldn't help but wipe out the kindness of her two sisters, so she chose a bunch of red gemstone bracelets. They were not polished very finely, and each one was different in size. Chu Chu just thought the color was good-looking.
"Sister Chu Chu is really discerning. My sister and I had a quarrel over this bracelet. My sister said she didn't like it and was angry with me. It's Sister Chu Chu who has the discernment."
As he spoke, his face shone with excitement, and he was even happier than getting approval from his parents.
When he was excited, he helped Chu Chu choose two stones that were also glowing red, bigger than Chu Chu's little fist, and a jade-colored bracelet.
Chu Chu accepted them all.
"I'm afraid it's hard to choose the gift that my sister gave you. She always likes knives and swords. She almost doesn't have any jewelry. But my mother collected a lot for her, saying that it will be used as a dowry when she gets married. of."
Lan Zhuo was not angry when his sister exposed him, but he couldn't think of what to give to Chu Chu.
At this time, Chu Chu stared at a big knife hanging on the wall.
"Can I have this knife?"
Lan Zhuo smiled when he saw Chu Chu's shining eyes: "I just said that sister Chu Chu is not that shallow, you see? My sister also likes swords and guns!"
"My father collected this big knife from the Tatars. I hung it here when I was young. My father is not good at using it himself, but he said it is very sharp and is a good thing."
Then he said embarrassedly: "I can't carry it either. My brother has been pampered by his grandparents since he was a child. A delicate scholar can't use it. If anyone in sister Chu Chu's family can use it, just take it back."
"Master Qin, will you be reluctant to part with it?"
After all, this thing does not belong to the two sisters. Chu Chu is a little hesitant. The big knife is shiny and shines so brightly after hanging for so long. Chu Chu feels that he will like it if it is given to Brother Dalang. He has not taken advantage of it yet. arms.
"Don't worry, sister Chu Chu, dad really doesn't need it. After you finish choosing, I'll ask Qing Niang to bandage it up for you and send it over.
The remaining ones will be screened by my mother again, and those that will be used in the future will be packed up for my sister to take back to the capital.
We may not be able to bring these bulky and cumbersome things with us when we go to Xijiang. My mother and I will not be able to take a car by ourselves by then, and will have to squeeze in with other women. My father said that we should travel lightly. . "
Lan Zhuo's words made Chu Chu completely relieved.
"Then I'm not welcome. I want this sword and a few more daggers."
As he spoke, he selected the daggers he had just chosen, six in total.
Chu Chu saw that those daggers were sharper than the ones her father gave to her mother, but there were no gems inlaid on the handles. After returning, she wanted to keep one for herself, give one to Hongying and her sister, and leave the remaining three. Leave it to Yuanbao, Sanlang and Xiao Ge.
Because there were too many to choose from, Chu Chu planned to choose from the space after returning and give some gifts to her two sisters.
Lan Zhuo did not leave August and Qiuli empty-handed, so she both picked out gifts for them. Even sister Luo Mei had a gemstone and a bracelet stuffed into her hands.
Everyone was so happy that they turned their nose up at each other. Last night, Madam gave them moon silver. Luomei Donggu got an extra twenty taels, and Qiuli and August also got an extra ten taels, just to let them buy some good things from the border.
They hadn't bought anything when they went out just now, so a few of them were a little depressed, but now they were all so happy that they couldn't even see their eyebrows, and they were smiling with their mouths wide open.
Unexpectedly, they had nothing to gain. In the evening, their father brought back half a car full of things, saying that Mr. Qin took them to dig out the wealth of two gem dealers.
"Why can't we buy it when we go out?" Li Yan and Chu Chu were excited when they heard it, and they were eager to open it and take a look.
Yan Guogong looked at the two little money lovers and found it funny: "I'm sure you like it. Go back to the capital and pick it up slowly. Now it's a mess when you open it, and you have to clean it up again tomorrow."
Chu Chu: "Why did daddy buy so much? The shops on the street are all closed."
Duke Yan smiled and said, "You don't understand this. Mr. Qin has his own channels. The war is in turmoil. Now no one will openly sell it."
"Did you hide any money in Daddy's boots?"
Chu Chu remembered that all the banknotes were in the hands of the maid and her mother, and some of them were left by her mother in a place for her.
Yan Guogong looked at his wife as if she had been caught, as if she had really hidden her private room: "..."
Then he said: "Every time he kills a thief, Zimo has his pockets emptied."
Li Yan and Chu Chu:...
Is this still possible?
Chu Chu felt that she had missed something.
When she got up the next day, Chu Chu was startled by Qiuli's bleating.
"Miss, get up quickly, it's snowing, it's snowing outside."
August also picked up the clothes that were being heated on the small stove and put them on the young lady who was so anxious that she wanted to run out without any clothes on.
August's face was very excited, and he said to Chu Chu with a smile: "Don't worry, miss, the snow is really quite heavy, but not as heavy as last year, and it's also very cold outside. Fortunately, it hasn't started raining yet, so it's just a thin layer." layer.
I heard that it was the first snow in the Northland this year, and the soldiers in the barracks ran out to catch the snow excitedly! Everyone was as excited as a child. "
After getting dressed, as long as Sister Luo Mei wiped her face, Chu Chu pulled August and ran out. Qing Yi still grabbed her hat and covered it up.
The thin layer of white everywhere outside the house adds a lot of beauty to the gray scenery along the way.
It looks a bit prettier than last year's heavy snow, and it's beautiful in its own right.
In the corridor, their father and mother had their backs to them. They stood quietly leaning against each other, their hands still clasped together. They didn't even notice when they got to the back.
Chu Chu felt that it would be nice if there was a painter next to her. She really wanted to freeze the backs of her father and mother at this moment.
Later, perhaps hearing their voices, father and mother suddenly turned around, and the two hands that were holding each other loosened.
Pity!
"Dad, mother, you don't even call me when you see the snow."
Chu Chu was wrapped tightly by Luo Mei and the others, leaving only a cute little white face exposed, blaming her parents coquettishly, with bright, round and big eyes.
"I knew our Chu Chu would like it, so come here and give me a hug."
Seeing that his wife's face was a little red, as if she had been caught having an affair, Mr. Yan Guogong quickly changed the subject.
"No, daddy protects mommy, Chu Chu goes outside to take a look."
After saying that, the three little ones ran away, and Chu Chu didn't care. Her father's hand, which was reaching out to hug her, was messy in the wind.
It would be nice if mommy had daddy with her.
She wanted to share this beautiful scenery with her friends. She also wanted to go outside and see what August said. What was the difference between the soldiers' excitement at seeing snow and them?
A dark cloud covers the dawn sky, and the powdery flowers are messy and velvety.
I don't know where the general is, but he has lost Yuzhu Peak in Nancheng.
