Chapter 571 Injured
Mrs. Chu knew what was going on, and her face looked better. After sitting for a while, she led Chu Jinglan away.
Xia Zihan and Chu Jingqi played with the twins for a while. Chu Jingqi also tried the twins' martial arts. The twins were young and had little strength, but their physical flexibility was much better than before they practiced martial arts. The two of them beat Chu Jingqi one by one, and they were still able to fight in Chu Jingqi's hands. Take three or two moves from the bottom.
Chu Xuanyu saw the excitement and joined the fight, helping the twins to fight with Chu Jingqi.
Chu Xuanyu has been practicing martial arts for decades, and his internal strength is deeper and faster than Chu Jingqi's. After the father and son took 500 moves, Chu Jingqi gradually retreated and was overwhelmed.
After more than a hundred hard moves, Chu Jingqi was knocked to the ground by one palm compared to Chu Xuanyu.
Chu Xuanyu did not use his internal strength, and Chu Jingqi did not suffer any internal injuries, but was bruised on the chest.
After returning to the room, Chu Jingqi took off his clothes. Xia Zihan took out the ointment, applied it on him and rubbed it gently.
There was a big bruise on her face, and the word "distress" was written all over her face.
Chu Jingqi coaxed her and said, "It's just a little injury. I don't feel any pain. On the battlefield, it would be a hundred times worse than this injury. It's okay."
"You also said that next time you are at home, you are not allowed to compete with your father." Xia Zihan glared at him fiercely.
On the battlefield, injuries are inevitable, but now at home or in front of her, how could she be willing to see him injured.
"Well, I listen to my wife." Chu Jingqi acted like I am a wonderful husband. He agreed to whatever the wife said, "You have to rub it more and the congestion will disperse."
Touching the back of her hand, the two hands touched each other and moved gently in circles.
Only when the ointment was absorbed into the skin did Xia Zihan take back her hand and help him get dressed.
Chu Jingqi took out a red envelope from her sleeve and said, "Daughter-in-law, this is the New Year's money given to you by your husband. Keep it well."
He specially prepared it for Xia Zihan.
Xia Zihan's cheeks turned red, and she accepted the red envelope with a hum, and then placed it under the pillow together with the three red envelopes given to her by Mrs. Chu Xuanyu and Mrs. Zhuo.
As for Mrs. Chu, she didn't give a single coin to the children in the big house, not even the twins. However, after returning to the west courtyard, Mrs. Chu took out a red envelope and gave it to Chu Jinglan.
There were six silver nuggets inside.
On the first day of the new year, Xia Zihan and Chu Jingqi got up early. Breakfast was in the hall and the whole family ate together. After the meal, the family went to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors and offer them fruits, braised food and shochu. .
At noon, they had another reunion dinner together, and in the afternoon, Xia Zihan and Chu Jingqi stayed in the flower hall all afternoon.
The next day, the six members of Dafang's family finished breakfast early, said goodbye to Mr. Chu, and went to Chu's house to pay New Year's greetings.
Zeng hadn't seen Xia Zihan for several days and missed him very much.
Xia Zihan came, and after saluting her, she held Xia Zihan's hand and was reluctant to let go.
The third child also climbed onto the hot kang, wrapped around Mrs. Zeng, and chirped, reaching out for red envelopes, "Grandma, I have saved almost twenty red envelopes, which is almost enough money to marry a wife."
His voice was crisp, coupled with the unusually serious expression on his little face, he looked so cute.
As soon as Mrs. Zeng was happy, she let go of Xia Zihan's hand and hugged the third child, "Okay, grandma. Grandma has already prepared it. I'll give you a double portion." The third child's eyes lit up, "Thank you, grandma. , it’s better to be a grandma, my eldest brother and sister-in-law didn’t give me any red envelopes.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Chu Jingqi several times aggrievedly.
Chu Jingqi glared at him, "You brat, don't even think about paying attention to your sister-in-law's red envelope. Ayu is your sister-in-law and your peer, so what kind of red envelope can I give you?"
The third child straightened his face and snorted in displeasure, "Didn't you say that a sister-in-law is like a mother? Since a sister-in-law is like a mother, she should be like her mother. My mother gave me red envelopes, so why not my sister-in-law?"
"Give it, sister-in-law will give it too."
Worried about what Chu Jingqi would say, Xia Zihan hurriedly took over the words and winked at Nuanyu.
Nuanyu stepped forward, took out two red envelopes she had prepared long ago from her sleeves, and gave one to each of the twins.
When the third child saw that the second child also had one, he shouted angrily, "I fought for this red envelope. Why did my sister-in-law give it to the second child? Give it all to me. Grandma also gave me two."
As he said that, he rushed over and tried to snatch it from the old man.
The second child had better martial arts skills than him, so how could he be allowed to snatch the red envelope? The third child tried to grab it several times but failed to do so, so he puffed up his face and looked at Xia Zihan with aggrieved eyes.
Xia Zihan stroked his forehead and asked Nuan Yu to prepare a few more red envelopes.
The two red envelopes were originally intended for Zeng Yiran's children and Chu Yuexi's children. The twins were of the same generation, and there was no rule of peers giving New Year's money to their peers. Therefore, she did not prepare any New Year's money for the twins at all.
However, it seems that in the future, they will have to be prepared in advance every year. It seems that one person will have to prepare two.
Nuanyu went to the side hall and wrapped four more red envelopes. When she came back, she gave one to the second and third children. After Liao Fangyi came back from her parents' home with the child in her arms, Xia Zihan gave another one to her children and went to see them. When Princess Qinghui was still in confinement, she gave another one to her nephew who was not yet one month old.
The third child was very proud of having received two red envelopes from his sister-in-law. However, when he saw that Nuan Yu also gave the second child two red envelopes, he felt that the second child did not like him and would provoke him from time to time.
As soon as the second child ignored him at first, the third child intensified and pushed him further. The angry second child pushed him on the bed and beat him severely.
The third child couldn't beat him, so he screamed for help, but none of the adults paid attention to him. The aggrieved third child burst into tears.
"Your father, since you didn't go to pay New Year's greetings, you should give him a New Year gift." Mrs. Zeng took Xia Zihan and Mrs. Zhuo to the end of the kang to talk, and the head of the kang was left to the second and third sons to play around < br>
Chu Xuanyu and Chu Jingqi went to the front yard to chat with Chu Yuexi and Doctor Bai.
"It has been sent." Xia Zihan said, "Before I went out in the morning, I asked Chu Fei to send it. I sent one to my father, and one to my uncle, aunt, and two concubines. My brother, Aunt Zhang, Aunt Guo, and my fourth sister all have a gift.”
There are just no gifts from Mrs. Xia and Mr. Xu.
They want to take advantage of her, wait until the next life, this life is beyond their dreams.
Huh, there are two of them, one is her biological grandmother and the other is her nominal mother, but when she got married, let alone the dowry, they didn't even give her an additional dowry.
It's not that she cares about those things, nor does she lack those things, but...since people don't treat her as a relative, she will also put her hot face on their cold buttocks, trying to please them everywhere, and even getting into trouble.
