Big brother Minglou not only guessed it, but even prepared his own New Year gift.

You know, even the eldest sister Ming Jing didn't know that Ming Tai would go home for the New Year, and she didn't prepare a gift.

Mingtai slowly chewed in his heart the words that his elder brother Minglou said on purpose, "Do you think that little trick of yours can hide it from me?".

An indescribable haze slowly grew in the bottom of my heart.

Finally, it was time for the New Year's Eve dinner. The dishes specially ordered by Ah Cheng and the meals prepared by Ah Xiangming Jing himself filled the entire table.At the dinner table, Mingtai opened the gift from his elder brother Minglou, only to find that it was still a belt.

He couldn't help but pouted and said, "Why is it a belt again?"

Ah Cheng opened a bottle of red wine and explained, "That's the latest style in Paris."

It means you don’t even have me. How dare you pick and choose.

Mingtai was still dissatisfied. He glanced at Minglou and hummed, "I give it every year. I now have more belts than trousers. I know, brother, you just want to tie me down." Minglou admitted with a smile, "That's right, I want to tie you down to death."

Ah Cheng's pouring hand trembled, almost touching Minglou's crotch, he quickly raised his head, and glanced at Minglou with creepy eyes.

Brother, brother の prohibition? !

Minglou: "..."

Minglou has a slight black line, what has Cheng's little head been filled with all day long...

Twists and turns

Halfway through the New Year's Eve dinner, Mingtai suddenly wanted to listen to an opera.

Ming Jing looked out the window at the pitch-black night, and said, "The theater has long been closed at this time, if you want to listen to a play, my sister will take you there tomorrow." Mingtai looked at Minglou with a half-smile, "What are you doing in the theater? Big brother can sing much better than them."

Ming Jing rolled his eyes, and then landed on Ming Lou, "Why don't you just come for a while?"

Minglou at the bottom of the food chain: "..."

Ah Cheng calmly touched the erhu, and this movement was done in one go without any pause, which made Minglou instantly have a strange mentality of "he was actually prepared to wait for a good show".

Minglou glared at Ah Cheng, "You are booing too, right?"

Ah Cheng nodded seriously: "Yes."

Minglou: "..."

Minglou had no choice but to sing.

Mingtai began to pick and choose again, "I don't want to listen to "Melon Town", and I don't want to listen to "Zhuangyuan Media". I want to listen to "Su Wu Shepherd".

As soon as the words "Su Wu shepherds the sheep" came out, the hearts of Mingjing Minglou and Ah Cheng trembled instantly.

Mingjing thought that the unintentional actions of his younger brother Mingtai happened to hit Minglou's weakness. Su Wu and Shepherd have not forgotten the country after many years of hard work. On the other hand, Minglou was in a high position in the Nanjing government when the country was in crisis. Like being sarcastic.

Minglou and Cheng's eyes intertwined, and each other's eyes fluctuated. Finally, Minglou nodded and said, "I'll sing."

Ah Cheng pulled up the erhu, and Minglou's voice was deep and magnetic and surrounded by tragic melody music. At this time, the joyful atmosphere of New Year's Eve was only left with the hardship and desolation of Su Wu herding sheep.

When Minglou sang the line "If Su Wu wants to surrender, the red sun will rise in the west and wither away", Mingtai, who had been staring at him closely, stood up and applauded loudly. Minglou met his eyes, but found that this young boy There are too many deep meanings in the eyes.However, before he could say anything, someone suddenly opened the door gently and walked in.

It was a plainly dressed middle-aged woman who walked in with cautious steps. She nodded to Ming Jing and his party, and finally fixed her tearful eyes on Ah Cheng.

"Acheng..."

The moment Ah Cheng saw her, his eyes fixed on this woman not far away.

His lips trembled slightly, and countless fragments of situations flashed before his eyes, chopping firewood and boiling water alone, secretly weeping locked in an old house, hysterical abuse and beating by a crazy woman... Anger gushed out from the flesh and bones, and burned all the way to the sky. , he could even clearly hear the sizzling sound of his own blood being dried.

But when Ah Cheng's eyes fell on the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and the white hair on her sideburns, the raging anger dissipated in an instant, leaving only endless indifference and strangeness.The person he used to gnash his teeth, has been squeezed by life to be extremely old and sick, and has received the retribution she deserves...

Ash couldn't help but tremble.

Minglou was the closest, seeing this, he quickly reached out to help.

Ming Jing was still soft-hearted after all, seeing Aunt Gui's white-haired and wrinkled appearance, she couldn't help persuading, "Ah Cheng, time has changed, please forgive Aunt Gui."

Minglou was very close to him, and vaguely saw a sneering but pitiful smile on Ah Cheng's mouth, which disappeared in less than half a second.Ah Cheng resolutely pushed Minglou's hand to support him, straightened his back and pursed his lips, turned and left without saying a word.

This New Year's Eve has been full of twists and turns.

In the second half of the night, almost no one in the Ming family fell asleep.Aunt Gui, crying with tears in her eyes, talked about her miserable life for many years in the mirror room; Mingtai thought over and over again whether her eldest brother had defected to the Japanese; Only Ah Xiang had a good night's sleep comfortably.

Ah Cheng entered Minglou's room and closed the door behind him.His face was a little cold, and it seemed that he was still angry. Minglou motioned him to sit down, then handed him a cup of hot milk, and carefully found an angle that would not cause him to burn himself. No, I apologize to you."

Ah Cheng didn't answer.

"Aunt Gui really can't live in the countryside, so she wrote to ask Eldest Sister, hoping to return to the Ming family to seek refuge with you..."

"Take care of me?" Ah Cheng interrupted him coldly, "I have nothing to do with this person, why should she come to join me?"

Minglou was exhausted, "I know that Aunt Gui did a lot of wrong things back then, but she..."

Ah Cheng interrupted him again, "Needless to say but, I don't want to hear but either. I don't want to have anything to do with that person!"

Seeing his agitation, Minglou quickly said, "Ah Cheng, don't be agitated."

This sentence was like a fuse, successfully arousing the anger he had suppressed for a long time.Ah Cheng stood up angrily, and said, "Can I not be excited?! You called her back, did you consider my feelings?" He paused, "That's right, you don't have to consider my feelings at all, In this family, I am a servant!"

Minglou was still sitting on the sofa, but when he heard this, he immediately stood up and stared at him, "Nonsense, who dares to treat you as a servant?"

Mingcheng's brain twitched in anger, and said, "Do you think I'm the eldest mistress?"

Minglou: "..."

Ah Cheng took several deep breaths, and said goodbye with a cold face: "I'm going to bed, good night, big brother."

Early the next morning, Ah Cheng, who was wearing a slim suit and shirt, came into Minglou's bedroom with milk and bread, "Good morning, brother."

Minglou came over wearing the same shirt in different colors, buttoning up the buttons while looking at him, "Have you figured out what happened to Aunt Gui?"

Ah Cheng's hand holding the milk froze, "Can you stop talking about this?"

Ming Lou said: "But Ah Cheng, Aunt Gui has already returned after all, look..."

Ah Cheng forced the milk into Minglou's hand, then stared at him, "Shut up, or I will forcefully kiss you."

Minglou: "..."

Did you get the wrong script?

After breakfast, Ah-Cheng went straight out to work without giving Aunt Gui the time to play a family card. After discussing with Yoko Nantian that the source of the Sakura leak might come from the government office, he left the sentence "I have to go back and prepare the sacrificial instruments" and got up. leave.Yoko Nantian watched him leave, and then bewilderedly realized that China is responsible for preparing sacrifices, which are usually taken care of by the eldest grandma who is in charge...

Thinking of this, she couldn't help admiring Minglou's efforts to squeeze his subordinates.

What a Ming officer, he can treat his personal butler like a young mistress.

Half an hour later, in the small ancestral hall of the Ming Mansion, Ming Jing led Minglou and Mingtai to kneel down to worship the ancestors of the Ming family.Although Mingtai was not of his own blood, he was declared to be a collateral descendant of the Ming family when he was adopted, so he was eligible to pay homage to his ancestors.After Minglou burnt incense, his gaze shifted imperceptibly to the door, because there was still a Cheng standing there.

After offering incense and offering sacrifices, Ming Jing and Ming Tai leave the small ancestral hall, and Ming Lou deliberately fills up the leaving time to wait for Ah Cheng to pack up the sacrificial supplies.He looked around and said in a low voice, "You can't enter the small ancestral hall for sacrifices every year, Ah Cheng, don't think too much..."

Ah Cheng didn't even raise his head, "I didn't think much about it, and I never thought much about it."

Minglou: "?"

Ah Cheng finally gave him a look of charity, "Because I haven't married you yet, and I haven't become the official eldest daughter of the Ming family, so of course I am not qualified to come in to worship the ancestors of the Ming family. But after I marry you, this The problem no longer exists."

Minglou: "..."

He started to play tricks again, it seems that Ah Cheng has come out of the haze of Aunt Gui's incident.

Aunt Gui did not leave until the end.

Ah Cheng lightly caressed the robe that Ming Jing handed over to him not long ago. It was a long gown of the same size as himself, with dense stitches, and it was Aunt Gui's handicraft at first glance.His eyes flickered, and he looked at the gate of Ming Mansion through the glass window on the second floor. Ming Jing and his party were saying goodbye to Aunt Gui.

Before leaving, she looked over from afar as if she had her last wish.

Ah Cheng's heart softened, after all, he still couldn't convince himself to let her go.

After all, more than 20 years ago, the only maternal love he felt in his life came from this woman.

The only conflict during the Chinese New Year——after the Aunt Gui incident was resolved, Mingtai tested his elder brother Minglou whether he was a traitor or not.
