On New Year's Eve, Wu Jinghua's family and those who stayed in Taiyuan to guard but did not have a family all celebrated the New Year together in the front hall. Although they were all men, both the decorations in the house and the food prepared were very exquisite and full of integrity. After all, he had Xu Mulin’s blessing. At first it was just a few people working, but later it became almost a joint effort by the whole family. The dumplings made were strangely shaped, and the vegetables were cut into various shapes, including strips and pieces. Even so, everyone ate with gusto after the banquet started. Apart from the fact that Wu Yang's father drank to drown his sorrows and chased Wu Yang all over the house, from pouring out his bitterness to fighting with force, everyone put down their bowls, chopsticks and glasses to watch the fun, laughing so hard that they fell forward and backward, New Year's Eve can be regarded as It is a harmonious, happy and lively place.

As the hour got later, after Wu Jinghua distributed New Year's money to everyone in the house, some of them arranged to continue drinking together, some were too drunk to make a fuss, and they all dispersed in twos and threes. Although Uncle Wu was also very drunk, Wu Yang was still worried and insisted on pestering Wu Jinghua to continue to stay up late. Li Jihua only watched the excitement from the side, completely regardless of how many times Wu Jinghua cast a look for help. After the torment that night, Li Jihua was still exhausted. He was extremely happy to see Wu Yang take care of Wu Jinghua for him.

Wu Jinghua and the others were still noisy, but Xu Qingjiu, who had been urged to drink a lot by the crowd earlier, had already fallen asleep on the table. Xu Mulin stretched out his hand to help Xu Qingjiu. Seeing that Xu Qingjiu could no longer move on his own, he could only look towards Li Jichu. When Li Jihua turned his head to look over, Xu Mulin nodded and then picked up Xu Qingjiu and left first. Got it

"Senior brother, am I sinking?"

Not far after walking out of the front hall, Xu Mulin suddenly heard Xu Qingjiu's voice in his arms. He looked down and saw that Xu Qingjiu still had his eyes closed. Although he thought that Xu Qingjiu should have said drunken words, Xu Mulin Mulin still replied seriously:"It won't sink."

"Not sinking? But I’ve grown a lot in age, but haven’t I grown in stature?"

Xu Qingjiu listened to Xu Qingjiu's rigorous logic and unambiguous voice. When he reached a brighter location, Xu Mulin stopped and looked down at Xu Qingjiu again. Xu Qingjiu also had his eyes wide open at the moment, a little confused. Looking at myself with disappointed eyes

"Of course he has grown up, but senior brother still doesn't feel heavy. Hearing this

, Xu Qingjiu smiled with satisfaction and said,"Senior brother, if you never think I am heavy, how do you know if I have grown up?" Xu

Mulin thought for a moment and then asked:"I just saw that you drank a lot. It seems that Qingjiu's drinking ability is getting better and better, and he is not drunk at all.""

Xu Qingjiu stretched out her hand and climbed up to Xu Mulin's neck. She leaned closer to Xu Mulin's ear and said,"I secretly changed the wine in the pot to water. In fact, it was only when the water in the pot disappeared that I actually drank a few glasses of wine.." At this point, Xu Qingjiu also realized why Xu Mulin asked this question, and hurriedly explained:"I didn't pretend to be drunk to deceive my senior brother, I just have something important to do, otherwise I would really get drunk.."

Hearing this, Xu Mulin was also curious about what Xu Qingjiu had to do, but he explained first:"I don't think Qingjiu is cheating by pretending to be drunk, but I feel that so many people are close to Qingjiu, so they all go He asked Qingjiu to drink with him, unlike his senior brother, who could only make do with a few drinks by himself."

Xu Qingjiu listened to Xu Mulin's words and was vaguely aware of Xu Mulin's disappointment. Thinking of what Wu Yang said two days ago, Xu Qingjiu suddenly became anxious. Xu Qingjiu used her strength to get closer to Xu Mulin and talk to Xu Mulin. Mulin could be happier, but he used too much force. Maybe Xu Mulin suddenly felt the force and turned his head towards Xu Qingjiu without paying attention. Xu Qingjiu's face hit the side of Xu Mulin's face. Although Xu Mulin Mulin's face was not hard, but the tip of Xu Qingjiu's nose still hit Xu Mulin's cheekbone, causing a sore nose. However, Xu Qingjiu still endured it and explained to Xu Mulin first:"How could it be, I love my senior brother drink wine."After saying that, Xu Qingjiu seemed to feel that these words were not enough, so he continued:"Senior brother, you can't get drunk tonight, so I blocked the wine that Uncle Wu and the others wanted to drink from you, but...He lied a little bit and told them that senior brother couldn't drink, so the others didn't ask him to drink anymore."

The sore nose caused tears to well up in her eyes. Xu Qingjiu still hugged Xu Mulin's neck tightly. Xu Mulin felt that Xu Qingjiu's breath fell on his face like feathers when he was anxious to explain. , Xu Mulin was worried that his breathing would shock the feathers off, so he even stopped breathing.

"Senior brother?"Seeing Xu Mulin suddenly stunned, Xu Qingjiu didn't know for a moment whether what he just said had made Xu Mulin relax, so he anxiously urged Xu Mulin to respond.

Xu Mulin tried hard to calm down his rapid heartbeat, and wanted to turn his head It also deviated from Xu Qingjiu's, but Xu Qingjiu's ring was really tight, so Xu Mulin had to make an excuse first:"Qingjiu...My hands are a little numb, can I put you down first?"

Xu Qingjiu seemed to realize at this moment that she had been being held by Xu Mulin. She quickly loosened her hands and got off Xu Mulin, scratching the back of her neck in embarrassment and smiling awkwardly.

Although Xu Mulin's chaotic heartbeat had slowed down. A lot, but the heat somewhere in the body still couldn't be dissipated for a while. Xu Mulin had to pretend that his feet were numb, and sat on the railing beside him in a panic. After calming down for a while, he was worried that he would be injured for too long. Silence would make Xu Qingjiu notice something unusual, so he had to continue to return to the topic Xu Qingjiu just mentioned without missing a beat,"So that's it, but why can't I get drunk?"

"this..."Xu Qingjiu felt that there was no point in stating his intention directly,"Senior brother, wait for me here for a while, I will be back soon." After saying that, Xu Qingjiu ran away in a flash.

Xu Mulin didn't stop Xu Qingjiu for a while, or maybe he thought it would be good to let himself be alone to calm down for a while, so he didn't really stop him.

While Xu Qingjiu left, Xu Mulin took a deep breath, but the effect was not obvious. It was dark tonight and there was no wind. A gust of cold wind might make Xu Mulin clearer. Fortunately, when Xu Mulin lowered his head, he saw There was a spot underground that was slightly reflecting the light of the fire. Xu Mulin stretched out his hand and touched it. It turned out to be a piece of ice after the snow had melted. It was turning into water at this moment. Xu Mulin stretched out his hand and took the ice cube into his hand with just a slight slide. Xu Mulin closed his hands and covered the ice in his palms. As the ice cubes turned into water and dripped on the ground, Xu Mulin finally felt relieved. But as if he didn't think it was enough, Xu Mulin put his water-covered hands on his face again, making himself shiver, but fortunately, he finally felt more at ease and relaxed.

"I'm sorry, senior brother, I hid it a little deeper and couldn't find it for a while."Xu Qingjiu continued to trot all the way to Xu Mulin. Maybe he was a little anxious. He didn't realize that his fishnet-like mouth had almost leaked out everything that should and should not be said.

"What good things did Qingjiu hide to show to his senior brother?"

Although he had realized that he had let it slip, it seemed that everything was not going as well as Xu Qingjiu had expected, but it was not much different. Xu Qingjiu directly revealed the surprise that he had secretly prepared for many days in front of Xu Mulin's eyes.

"Senior brother, I wish you longevity and happiness."Xu Qingjiu held the white jade hairpin in both hands and handed it to Xu Mulin with great care. He spoke the congratulatory message that he had memorized for a long time to Xu Mulin enthusiastically.

Because Xu Mulin's birthday coincided with the New Year, in previous years, the three masters and apprentices were here After watching the New Year's Eve in the Qingtang, Xu Enze first brought a glass of wine and said a few words of congratulations. Even if it was to congratulate Xu Mulin on his birthday, Xu Qingjiu spent many days on his eighteenth birthday. Don't be awkward. He sewed a money bag and gave it to Xu Mulin. Later, Xu Mulin sewed another money bag as a gift to Xu Qingjiu. After Xu Qingjiu processed it again, one of the two money bags had"Mu Lin" and the other"Qing". Originally they were going to embroider their names together, but unfortunately the word"Mulin" took too much effort. When it came to myself, I lost patience.

Ever since Xu Qingjiu and Xu Mulin decided to stay in Taiyuan, Xu Qingjiu decided that it was necessary to I had to find a decent birthday gift for Xu Mulin. Fortunately, after searching for so long, I finally paid off Xu Qingjiu’s hard work.

"Brother, do you like it?"Seeing that Xu Mulin didn't answer or say anything, although Xu Qingjiu liked this hairpin very much, he was not sure whether Xu Mulin also liked it, so he had to confirm it.

"So you were busy with this? I thought..."Xu Mulin looked at the hairpin and finally understood why Xu Qingjiu always took Wu Jinghua out. Because of this, Xu Mulin thought that Xu Qingjiu had made friends, but in the end he felt that he was boring and could not control himself. Some loss and reluctance, or jealousy

"What do you think, senior brother?"

"Senior brother naturally liked Qingjiu's search for it for so long."

Hearing Xu Mulin's affirmation, Xu Qingjiu finally felt relieved. He raised his hand and took off the peach wood hairpin on Xu Mulin's head and replaced it with the one he gave. He looked at it from all angles and was very satisfied. He praised:"Senior brother, this hairpin really looks good."

"Yeah?"Xu Mulin raised his hand and touched his bun, and said with some regret:"It's just that I can't see it myself."

Speaking of this, Xu Qingjiu seemed to feel a little regretful,"Originally, I thought I would secretly take it out and put it on my senior brother when I was tying up his hair. However, since my senior brother will have to tie the hairpin every day, it will naturally work every day. Saw it"

"good."Xu Mulin smiled and said:"It's just that it's cold in the north, and Qingjiu has been tired from searching outside for so long."

"As long as senior brother likes it, it doesn't matter."Xu Qingjiu said, while shaking his head and looking at Xu Mulin wearing this hairpin,"Fortunately, I found it. I thought Taiyuan was rich here, and all kinds of exquisite and beautiful objects were always easy to find, but it turned out I searched a lot but always found it a bit boring."

"Thank you Qingjiu, I like it very much"

"Brother, as long as you like it. Senior brother, are your legs still numb? If the numbness is gone, let's go back. Senior brother, look at the way you wear this hairpin, and then you will know that what Qingjiu said is true. Senior brother was used to wearing peach wood hairpins, but now he just changed it slightly to a white jade hairpin, but it already looks like senior brother It's like a fairy coming to earth."As he said that, Xu Qingjiu also felt that he was fascinated by Xu Mulin's appearance.

Although Xu Mulin didn't like anything Xu Qingjiu gave him, but when he saw Xu Qingjiu take it out just now, Xu Mulin still realized Xu Qingjiu's intentions. Facing Xu Qingjiu's scorching eyes, Xu Mulin felt a little overwhelmed when hearing these kind words, so he had to avoid looking and teased with a smile:"Qingjiu said this , in fact, he was praising his own vision. What about immortals coming to the world? It was Qingjiu who exaggerated a bit."

"How? No words of praise can be said enough to describe my senior brother...."Looking at Xu Mulin's smiling lips, Xu Qingjiu suddenly reacted,"Senior brother, could it be that he wants to trick me and continue to say some complimentary words?"

"No. Xu Mulin denied:"I really think Qingjiu prefers this hairpin to me.""

Seeing Xu Mulin's face full of expectations, Xu Qingjiu also felt that no amount of praise could be too much for Xu Mulin. He simply tilted his head and sat sideways on the railing, leaned his head on Xu Mulin's shoulder, and began to praise him for a long time,"This A hairpin, only when the senior brother wears it can the true beauty of the hairpin be highlighted. After all, the senior brother is so elegant, with a jade tree facing the wind, full of energy, a talented person, gentle and elegant, and an amazing talent......"Listening to Xu Mulin's laughter, Xu Qingjiu praised more and more vigorously, until he had finished all the words of praise he could think of, and continued to repeat what he had said before.

"Qingjiu, thank you."When Xu Qingjiu was about to repeat it for the third time, Xu Mulin finally said

"Senior brother..."When Xu Qingjiu read it for the second time, his voice was already a little slurred. After being interrupted by Xu Mulin, he felt even more dizzy and his eyelids were too heavy to open. Before he finished speaking, he fell asleep in a daze, his feet slipped off the railing, and he leaned in Xu Mulin's arms.

There was no wind just now, but now two gusts of wind suddenly blew, and scattered snow clusters began to fall in the sky. Seeing Xu Qingjiu sleeping more and more, Xu Mulin quickly picked Xu Qingjiu up again and walked to the room.

"Senior brother, why are you so good? I like you more and more."
