The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren talked for a while. After Shen Nanxing selected some medicines suitable for the old man's health from the big bag of medicine given by the old doctor and his wife and left them for his grandfather, the brother and sister left their grandfather's yard together.

After walking a distance, Shen Nanxing suddenly remembered something and said, "Brother, come to my yard. I have something for you."

Shen Ming looked at her and asked with a smile: "What is it?"

Shen Nanxing winked cunningly: "You'll know when you get there."

So Shen Ming followed Shen Nanxing to her yard again. After waiting in the hall for a while, he saw her taking out an exquisite little wooden box from the bedroom.

Shen Ming raised his eyebrows, somewhat incredulous: "For me?"

This is obviously something for girls...

Shen Nanxing pushed the small wooden box in front of him and said, "Open it and take a look."

Shen Ming opened the lid out of curiosity and saw twelve neatly arranged purses inside the small wooden box. The embroidery was very delicate and it was obvious that much thought was put into it.

This color and style are suitable for men to wear.

This must have been embroidered for him by his sister over the years...

Shen Ming couldn't help but feel a little sore in the corners of his eyes, and his voice was choked with sobs: "This was made by you stitch by stitch, specially for brother!"

"Brother remembers that you never like to play with these things. Making these purses must have been a lot of hard work..."

When Shen Ming thought of his lively and playful sister who had sewn these purses for him stitch by stitch, and who might have pricked her hands countless times, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

He couldn't help but look at his sister's white fingers, his eyes full of heartache.

Shen Nanxing was stunned, knowing that his brother had misunderstood, and waved his hands repeatedly: "I didn't do this."

Shen Ming paused for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm glad it wasn't you who did it."

He raised his hand and scratched the tip of his sister's nose, then smiled and said, "I mean, you don't have the patience to do this."

Shen Nanxing gave an awkward smile.

I don't know how to put it. Even though she doesn't like sewing, she made hundreds of purses for that scumbag Xie Tingyu. I don't know how many holes were pierced in her fingers...

I was so stupid before! It was simply too much to bear watching!

Shen Ming closed the small wooden box and held it in his arms: "As long as it's a gift from you, it's like buying it. Brother will like it too."

"Brother, you can wear one every day for twelve days without repeating the same one!"

Shen Nanxing: ...

He just can’t see the huge word “Frost” on the purse, right?

Shen Nanxing held his forehead helplessly and kindly reminded: "Brother, take a closer look at the words embroidered in red silk thread on the lower right corner of the purse. Every purse has it."

Shen Ming's eyes were filled with surprise: "You also embroidered words? Let brother see."

Although the purse was bought ready-made, my sister also embroidered words on it, which is quite thoughtful!

Shen Nanxing opened his mouth to say something, but...

Forget it, I’m too lazy to explain. He’ll know it when he sees it.

Shen Ming excitedly opened the small wooden box, took out a purse at random, and held it in front of him to examine it carefully.

However, when I saw it, I was stunned.

It’s the word “Frost”, written by the little girl.

Only the character "霜" (frost) and the character "木" (wood) she embroidered had their sides curled up.

He once picked up a handkerchief of hers, and the "frost" on it was like this. When he returned it to her, he asked her the reason.

The little girl explained to him innocently: "Frost needs to have long legs to stand firmly!"

Thinking of the little girl's confident look when she told him that this word should be written, Shen Ming raised the corners of his lips slightly.

But at this moment he just pretended not to recognize it: "What is this?"

Shen Nanxing told his brother a story about when he was pretending to be his brother, and every time he passed by Chang'an Avenue after winning a battle, a little girl would hit his purse hard.

"That little girl is Hu Shuang'er, the youngest daughter of Minister Hu. She's also the one your grandfather wants to marry you."

"Shuang'er is such a lovely girl. She even went with me to the battlefield this time and helped me a lot!"

"Brother, you will know when you meet her. You will definitely like her..."

When Shen Nanxing talked about Hu Shuang'er, he couldn't stop smiling and his eyes were shining.

Shen Ming couldn't help but laugh as well, his eyes gradually becoming blank.

If I marry Shuang'er, Shuang'er will definitely get along well with my sister, and my grandfather will also be satisfied with a granddaughter-in-law like Shuang'er...

I got what I wanted...

But before long, the brightness in his eyes gradually disappeared.

Although he was still smiling, the smile was gone from his eyes.

He put the purse back and handed the small wooden box to his sister: "Since it was given to you by a little girl, you should keep it. How can you give it to me?"

Shen Nanxing glared in dissatisfaction: "But she gave it to me because she mistook me for you! Now that you're back, of course you have to return it to its original owner."

After saying that, she turned her head to the side and said, "If you don't want it, I'll give it back to her tomorrow and tell her you don't want it."

After she finished speaking, she reached out to take the small wooden box, but found nothing.

Shen Ming took a step back and held the small wooden box firmly in his arms.

He sighed helplessly: "Forget it, they gave it to you, why should I give it back?"

"Since you don't want it, I'll keep it for you."

The little girl loves to cry. If the box of purses is returned like this, who knows how she will cry...
