“As for my two brats, there’s nothing much to miss…” Yang Zhenli also laughed along.

“You guys have someone to miss, all I have to miss are those two empty rooms in my house…” Old Kuang joked along, the relationship among everyone had grown much closer over this period.

“Now that you’ve got silver, you should find yourself a wife too, at least then you’d have a hot meal waiting when you get back…” Li Zhong patted Old Kuang’s shoulder.

Old Kuang could only sigh.

“Let’s all go back, we can talk more another time.” Yang Ruxin waved his hand.

Everyone then scuttled away, laughing and joking.

“Uncle Kuang, I’m afraid these beasts will still need your care.” Yang Ruxin turned to Old Kuang, “Since you’re alone, why not come over and celebrate the New Year with us…”

“Xinxin, how could I?

I…”

“There are plenty of people at my place, we won’t notice one more.” Yang Ruxin chuckled.

“Alright then…” Old Kuang’s eyes reddened slightly, “I’ll go back and pack up first…”

Once everyone had left, Yang Ruxin finally turned to Gu Yao, “Little Yaozi, you’ve worked hard, go wash up and rest a bit first, we’ll hold a welcome banquet for you in the evening, and by the way, your room is right next to your big brother’s.

Everything there, the bedding, curtains, all of it, were made by Xuexue herself…” he said with a sigh, “and she wouldn’t let anyone else help…”

“Big sister, even if you offered to help, do you know how to do it?” Sanni pouted.

“Mengmeng, knowing something but not pointing it out is the highest realm of life, quickly take back what you said, and we’re still good sisters…”

“So we can’t even speak the truth now…” Sanni spread her hands helplessly.

This provoked a round of laughter from everyone.

Gu Yao glanced at Erni, feeling sweet inside, but he couldn’t rest yet, so he carried the remaining large wooden crate into the main room: “These are gifts that Young Master Qi asked me to bring to you.”

The goods brought back from Beijing were temporarily stored in the side room.

Yang Ruxin nodded and walked over to open the big wooden crate, filled with fabrics, jewelry, confections, the Four Treasures of the Study, and some other small trinkets from Beijing.

“What’s this?” Yang Ruxin pointed to a small wooden box and a bundle inside the big crate.

Gu Yao immediately embraced the bundle, pointing to the wooden box, “That’s what Young Master Qi asked me to give you, he said you’d know what it was, something you had asked him to find, although he wasn’t sure if it’s what you were looking for…”

“And what’s that in your arms?” Yang Ruxin wasn’t in a hurry to look at the wooden box, but focused on the bundle in Gu Yao’s arms.

“This is…” Gu Yao’s face suspiciously reddened, “This is…”

“What is it?” Yang Ruxin seemed even more interested, “If you don’t tell, I might just take it…”

“I’ll just let you see then.” Gu Yao glanced at Gu Qingheng next to him, who didn’t show any intention of helping, and resignedly placed the bundle on the table, “These are gifts I brought for everyone…”

“This one’s for me, right?” Yang Ruxin grabbed the most exquisite box in hand, “It looks quite delicate, let me guess what it is?”

“No…” Gu Yao tried to say it wasn’t for him, and wanted to snatch it back, but with Gu Qingheng eyeing him fiercely, he dared not make a move and could only stare longingly at Yang Ruxin.
