The entire Serene City was filled with a joyous atmosphere on the day the Hong family was in ruins.
Jing Yunzhao was already in Old Master Xu’s courtyard in Huaning County.
Grandpa Xu was wearing a red Tang suit with an ancient and exquisite longevity pattern embroidered on it. He looked much better than usual, but he did not forget to say coldly when he saw Jing Yunzhao,””Silly girl, where’s your god-grandfather? I didn’t invite you to celebrate the new year?”
“I did, but I didn’t go.” Jing Yunzhao smiled as she pasted a couplet on Xu Xingyuan’s face.
Jing Yunzhao wrote the words on the couplet herself.” The melody of the Lü is harmonious again, and the spring breeze and rain bring life back to life.” It had a double meaning to her. Her handwriting was not bad, and it was not a disgrace to paste it on the door.
“You didn’t want to go? Why do you have to disturb an old man like me?” Old Master Xu’s beard moved and a few words popped out.
Jing Yunzhao was amused. The old man was always stubborn and soft-hearted. He could not even hold back the smile on his face when she came yesterday, especially when she told him that she would be staying over for the New Year. The old man’s footsteps were light, and he did not admit it even though he was very happy. He was really like a child.
Elder Xu’s yard was so big that all the rooms were used as warehouses, but it was easy for him to vacate a room. Before he went to bed last night, Uncle Xu Xingyuan had bought a new mattress and decorated the room with a bright and beautiful design. Although Uncle Xingyuan did not say it, Jing Yunzhao could guess that it must have been the old man’s request.
Jing Yunzhao felt both respectful and relaxed whenever she was with Grandpa xu.
However, there was a question that he could not ask Elder Xu. It was about his family.
There was once when she saw that Elder Xu had been alone the whole time, and she felt emotional. So, she carefully asked the old man if there was anyone else in the family. Who knew that the old man would be like a parrot whose feathers had exploded in the next second? He immediatelv turned around and asked Uncle Xingyuan to chase her out without saying anything.
However, the old master’s anger died down quickly. That night, he asked Xu Xingyuan to call her and ask her to send some wine over when she was free.
The old master cared about his face, so he wouldn’t say it directly even if he lowered his head.
“Elder Xu, you can be considered my teacher. Of course, I have to come and show my filial piety to you. I’ll go buy some vegetables later. “Jing Yunzhao smiled.
Grandpa Sheng pouted his lips.” Then go quickly. I don’t keep idle people here.”
Jing Yunzhao smiled.
She had heard this many times.
Every time, she said that she would not keep idle people and then asked her to help make medicine. However, the herbs she made were different every time. She touched all the snakes, insects, rats, and ants.
Although Jing Yunzhao had known Grandpa Shen for a long time, Xu Xingyuan had always been the one who cooked for her, and Grandpa Shen only asked her to make the medicine. He never allowed her to do any chores, so this was the first time that she had done so.
Xu Xingyuan immediately told her about the old man’s preferences, and Jing Yunzhao could not help but feel embarrassed.
Old Master Xu was a drinker, so he naturally had a lot of dishes to go with the wine. However, he did not eat big meat and liked to eat light food. Moreover, if the light food did not taste good, he would not use his chopsticks. He was really very picky.
However, his taste was very similar to hers.
Jing Yunzhao was very confident in her cooking skills, so she went out to buy some fireworks as well.
The streets were crowded with people. Looking around, there were countless stalls along the streets. There were countless people eating, drinking, and playing. The red color made people feel happy.
Jing Yunzhao walked to a stall and looked at the stacks of fireworks boxes.. She pointed at one of the stalls and was about to say something when someone next to her said, ‘”Give me ten of these fireworks! By the way, do you have the kind with subtitles? It’s best if it’s something like ‘I love you’…
