The two men were afraid that Jiang Xi would not accept the things, so they signaled their servants to put down the things, and then they got ready to slip away.

"Sister A Li, let's go first, we have other relatives to leave!"

Having said that, Song Yulin took Song Yuxing and prepared to leave.

Jiang Xi hurriedly said: "Wait a moment, don't leave yet!"

Jiang Xi was quick to grab Song Yuxing.

Since you brought so many things here, according to the local custom, you have to give gifts in return.

Seeing that his brother was caught by Jiang Xi, Song Yulin could not leave.

Jiang Xi took the two of them back to the Jiang family. It was New Year's Day at the pig farm, so all the things were cleared out and all the pots and pans were washed and put away. There was no bacon, meat floss or pork jerky to eat. Only some snacks were left for the few people working there.

When Jiang Xi returned home, there was no one at home. No wonder the Song Yulin brothers found the pig farm in the back mountain.

He opened the door and led the two people in. The servants behind him helped carry the gifts down the mountain and brought them in.

Jiang Li rummaged through the drawers and bought a bunch of dried fruits for the family. The only fresh fruit was oranges.

Oranges are a must for Chinese New Year, and the gifts brought by the Song Yulin brothers included oranges.

Jiang Xi replaced the oranges, left some cakes and the like, and returned the rest of the white fungus, bird's nest, tea and wine intact. The Jiang family had nothing else, but they had a lot of bacon left at home, which was reserved for New Year gifts, so they added a few strips of bacon.

Seeing this, Song Yulin said, "Sister A Li, we really like this bacon, but since we've accepted the bacon, shouldn't you also accept the things we sent you?"

Song Yulin and Jiang Xi were pulling each other.

"This bacon is worthless. All the ones you brought here are too expensive."

Even though Jiang Xi doesn't drink tea or alcohol, he can tell that these things are very valuable just by looking at them.

"No, these are all carefully selected by my mother. Besides, as the saying goes, give and take, gifts are given with thought. How can you only look at the value of the gift?"

Jiang Xi was rarely choked by Song Yulin's words.

Even Song Yuxing, who was watching them fighting, glanced sideways at Song Yulin.

In the end, Jiang Xi had no choice but to take a step back and accept half of the gift.

Only then were the brothers Song Yulin and Song Yuxing able to leave the Jiang family.

The two men brought over a lot of things, and once they left, there was no one at home, so Jiang Xi couldn't just leave these things in the main room.

It took some time to organize the gifts.

Then he remembered the letter Song Yunting sent him.

Only after returning to his room did Jiang Xi open the envelope.

As soon as I opened it, a leaf fell out.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a thin leaf made of gold. Jiang Li smiled.

After taking a look at the leaves with fine veins, Jiang Xi opened the letter and began to read.

On the two-page letter, most of it was filled with corny words expressing his longing for Jiang Xi.

Jiang Xi was complaining in his heart, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

After writing most of the page to express his longing, Song Yunting began to write about their situation at the border.

Only then did I realize that while they were busy preparing for the New Year, the situation for the soldiers on the border was extremely tense.

After setting out from the capital, as soon as they arrived at the border, the two sides soon started fighting.

In the letter, Song Yunting wrote with a hint of happiness: "Maybe we will take a break during the two days of the New Year."

This is something the two armies are still discussing.

After all, when fighting outside, not only are the conditions difficult, but the soldiers don't know whether they will live or die every day, and their spirits are very tense. If possible, they would like to give everyone a day to breathe.

Just by reading the few short words on the letter, Jiang Li seemed to be able to see vague scenes on the battlefield.

At the end of the letter, Song Yunting asked how Jiang Li was doing at home and whether her business was going well. If she had any difficulties, she could ask Song Yunhang for help. He also promised that he would not let Jiang Li wait too long and would come back to marry her as soon as the war was over.

Even though he was not with Jiang Li, Song Yunting had already arranged everything for her.

Jiang Li looked at him and laughed.

I took out a pen and paper and started writing a reply.

When she arrived in the capital, Song Yunting had already left, so Song Yunting didn't know that Jiang Li had been to the capital.

So what Jiang Li wrote in the letter were nothing more than those things that Song Yunting was not involved in.

She talked about what happened during her trip to the capital, and how her eldest brother had started a family. With two more members, the family suddenly became much more lively.

Then he reminded Song Yunting to be careful when he was outside and hoped that he would come back soon.

After writing the letter, Jiang Li went to the post station and sent it out.

At the same time, he also packed up some of his homemade meat floss, jerky, bacon and other long-lasting foods and sent them to Song Yunting who was far away at the border.

I don’t know how long it will take to get to the border, and whether we can get there before the snow melts.

Time flies, and the Spring Festival holiday is over soon.

The adults and children in the family, those who should go to work, do business, or study, are all busy with their own things.

Jiang Baishu and Tie Niu had been gone for ten days. During these days, Lin Xiaohu had finally become familiar with the two young uncles of the same age and had developed a close relationship with them.

When he woke up early in the morning, he found that he was the only one left in the room. He didn't even have his clothes on, so he looked around the room for Jiang Baishu and Tie Niu.

Unexpectedly, I couldn’t find it inside or outside, and I burst into tears.

The pig farm has just started and is not very busy. Although the Jiang family has to go to the pig farm to work, they don't need to go there early in the morning.

When Lin Xiaohu got up, everyone had just finished their meal and left some rice in the pot for him.

I saw him running from room to room with his hair in disarray.

Finally he started crying. Old Master Jiang walked over, picked up Lin Xiaohu, who was sitting on the doorstep, and wiped his tears with his wrinkled hands.

He asked kindly, "What happened to Xiaohu? Did you have a nightmare?"

Lin Xiaohu hugged Grandpa Jiang's neck and sobbed, "Grandpa Zeng, where is my uncle? Where did they go? Xiaohu also wants to play with my uncle!"

"Your uncle Abo and uncle Tieniu have both gone to school. Have you forgotten? I mentioned that a few days ago."

Mr. Jiang spoke to Lin Xiaohu patiently.

Jiang Baishu and Tie Niu got up early in the morning. When they got up, the whole family was still sleeping. Aunt Zhang prepared breakfast for them, and the brothers Zhang Wen and Zhang Wu took them to school.

At that time, Lin Xiaohu was sleeping soundly and didn't notice anything.

Lin Xiaohu's eyes shrank, but they were still red. He stopped crying, but it took him a while for him to recover.

Grandpa Jiang carried the child to the dining table, gave him a steamed bun with red bean paste filling, and a bowl of soy milk, which he ate slowly.

Jiang Songshu and Gu Xianle watched from the side and walked out quietly to avoid being seen by Lin Xiaohu and starting to cry again.
