Chapter 205 Arrival and Moving
The new house was bustling early in the morning with people coming to help. Of course, there were only a few familiar families. As for the other people in the village, they were not very familiar with each other and did not move around for the time being.
Shen Changshan and Shen Jingyuan went to buy vegetables early in the morning, and the house was already busy.
The people who cooked were these familiar families. Although the family had just arrived, there were many people in the village, so they prepared more food.
Before long, some women in the village came to help spontaneously, and even two people from the village chief's family came to help.
With many children playing here, the atmosphere is particularly lively.
Shen Li got up early in the morning and is helping now. She is wearing a goose yellow brocade dress today. The material was given by the Lu family and made by Lin Cuicui and Bai Yao together. It looks particularly good on her.
With the help of Bai Yao, her hair was simply combed into a lily bun, with an auspicious hairpin inserted on each side, and a tassel hairpin hanging behind the bun. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
Time passed quickly. Today's weather was not good. It was gloomy and looked like it was going to rain or snow.
Shen Changshan and his friends hung red silk at the gate, set off firecrackers, and scattered candies to the children gathered at the gate. Even some adults came to join in the fun.
Not long after, a carriage stopped at the door and Shen Changshan hurried to greet it. Boss Wu, Wu Song, heard that the Shen family was moving today, so he came uninvited.
"Brother Shen, congratulations. I came here uninvited, please don't mind."
Shen Changshan's face was full of smiles. "How could that be? I'm so happy. Come in, please."
Shen Changshan had just settled Wu Song and walked to the door when he saw Chen Jian's carriage coming. The reason why he recognized his carriage was because he had seen it many times during the period when the house was being built, so he was naturally familiar with it.
"Master Chen, you are here too."
Chen Jian handed over the gift box in his hand and said, "Of course I'm here to congratulate you."
Although he was not very familiar with the Shen family, the creativity he got from Shen Li was worth the trip.
"Please come in."
Shen Changshan did not refuse. He took the gift box and took Chen Jian inside.
……
At the dock of Qingxi County, a luxurious ship gradually approached the shore. Lu Nian was wrapped in a fox fur cloak. The furry fox fur made her look even more lovely.
"Brother, when will it arrive?"
"It's almost there. We'll be there soon after we dock."
"Uh-huh."
Lu Nian nodded his head heavily. Ever since receiving Shen Li's letter last time, the brother and sister loaded the gifts they had prepared onto the boat and set off the next day. When Master Lu came back from inspecting the farm, the two children had already disappeared.
When he saw that the room where his two children had prepared gifts was empty, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
The behavior of the two children made him rush to ask the housekeeper. He was relieved after learning that they had brought thirty guards.
These thirty guards were recruited by him recently at a huge cost. They are all very skilled in their own ways. Of course, their monthly wages are very expensive, but the Lu family does not care about that little bit of money.
As soon as the brother and sister got off the boat, someone rented five horse-drawn carriages. After some people found out the location of Daohua Village, they headed towards that place in a mighty manner.
Arriving at Daohua Village, a guard stopped an old lady at the entrance of the village and asked for directions, "Auntie, do you know how to get to Shen's house?"
Aunt Yang rolled her eyes and said, "There are quite a few people with the surname Shen in this village. Can you tell me the name of the person you are looking for?"
The guard saw her greedy eyes looking at the carriage behind. The meaning revealed in her naked eyes was self-evident. He took out a small dime, played with it in his hand, and said seriously:
"Auntie, we are looking for Shen Changshan's family. Please show us the way."
Aunt Yang's eyes lit up when she saw Yin Zi. After hearing his question, she quickly answered, "Oh, it's his family. They just moved in. You've come at a bad time. They're having a housewarming party at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village today!"
The guard got the information he wanted and threw the silver to her. Aunt Yang asked quickly, "Do you want me to help lead the way?"
"Need not."
Watching the carriage passing by her, Aunt Yang happily held the silver in her hand. It must be two taels of silver, hey, I made a profit today.
The people in the carriage looked either rich or noble, and I didn't know why they were going to the Shen family?
Her eyes rolled around, she wished she could destroy his housewarming wine!
Thinking of this, he immediately put away the silver and walked towards the foot of the mountain. He could go to the county town any day. If he missed the excitement, he would never be able to see it again.
"Brother, we came at the right time. Sister Ali and her family moved today."
"Let me think about whether the gifts we brought are enough?"
"Anian, that's enough. If there's more, I'm afraid they won't accept it."
Lu Nian paused while counting on his fingers, thought carefully and nodded, "Brother, you are right, can we stay here for a few more days?"
Seeing his sister's expectant eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse, "We can only stay here for five days, otherwise Dad will come with us."
"Ok."
Five days is better than no time at all, and she is easily satisfied.
Shen Li had just finished her work and when she walked to the gate, she saw a few more carriages parked at the door. She was curious and walked over.
"Sister Ah Li!"
The next second, Lu Nian jumped directly from the carriage and threw himself into her arms.
After patting the little girl's head, Shen Li asked, "Why are you here?"
"We rushed here as soon as we received your letter." At this point, Lu Nian stood up and looked at her with a hint of condemnation in his eyes, "Sister Ali, if your letter was two days late, my brother and I would not be able to come here today."
Then I heard the little girl mutter softly, "I almost missed it."
I pinched the soft flesh on the little girl's cheek. Maybe the food had improved a lot during this period, and the baby fat on the little girl's cheek had grown a little more. It felt good to pinch the soft flesh.
"It's rare to come here, stay here for a few more days."
"Yeah!"
Lu Jing stood aside with a smile and watched the two of them talk. He did not go forward to disturb them. It was only when he saw Shen Changshan and the others coming out that he bowed.
"uncle."
"A Jing An Nian is here, come in quickly, it's windy outside."
"it is good."
Lu Jing ordered the guards to take all the gifts out of the carriage, then turned around and followed them in.
"Sister Ali, this new home is great. It looks nice."
Lu Nian was talking as he walked, and before he had said a few words, the girl saw Shen Xiaoya and immediately ran over.
"Duckling!"
"Anian!"
The two girls held hands and said in unison: "I missed you so much!"
After the conversation, the two looked at each other and laughed, and the silver bell-like laughter reached everyone's ears.
