"What are you?" Looking at the three huge gift bags in front of him, Gu Xi looked at the three of them and asked.

"New Year's gift." The three said with a smile on their faces.

Originally, as usual, today is New Year’s Eve and tomorrow is New Year’s Day, but the three of them can’t wait to give Gu Xi the New Year’s gifts.

"This..." Gu Xi can understand the gift, but isn't it a bit too exaggerated for such three big packages.

Compared to the three-person gift bag, Gu Xi suddenly felt that the gift she had prepared had lost her ‘vigorous’.

"What is it all?" Gu Xi blinked and asked.

"If you open it, you will know it." Gu Yanlin said, first handing the big bag of things in his hand to Gu Xi.

It is a pink gift bag with a bow of the same color on it.

Gu Xi unwrapped the bow and opened the package. What caught your eye was a dazzling array of brocade boxes.

After receiving many gifts of this type, Gu Xi almost guessed at the first glance what was in these brocade boxes.

Gu Xi opened one of the boxes, and sure enough, a small heart bracelet lay quietly in it.

Open the other boxes, bracelets, necklaces, small pendants, hairpins... everything.

Gu Xi, the brand of these brocade boxes, roughly remembers them, and they are not cheap.

And the big gift package that Gu Yanlin gave her contained more than a dozen boxes at once.

Such a big gift package seems to be too much.

Gu Xi took a look at the package of "heavy money" New Year gifts before her, then looked up at Gu Yanlin, and couldn't help but whisper, "Big brother, did you win the lottery?"

Hearing Gu Xi's question, Gu Yanlin felt ashamed and explained: "What kind of lottery I won? These are the money I made myself."

It seems that the project that Gu Yanlin's studio in Country M had done before is selling well, otherwise, where would come so much money to buy so much for her.

Gu Xi thought to herself and nodded.

but…

"You don't have to buy so many, just one piece." Gu Xi said seriously towards Gu Yanlin.

"Not much." Gu Yanlin said with a smile.

He bought a total of fifteen gifts, one is this year’s gift, and the remaining 14 are New Year’s gifts made up for the past fourteen years.

"Take it," Gu Yanlin said as he put the gift bag into Gu Xi's hands: "I hope Xixi will be happy and peaceful in the new year, and everything will come true."

"Um, thank you, brother!" Knowing the reason for Gu Yanlin's fifteen gifts, Gu Xi was moved.

"I'm here, I'll come first!" As Gu Chenyi said, he stuffed a cloth bag that was half the height of Gu Xi into Gu Xi's arms.

"In the new year, it is a pity to be as happy as today. No, it is to be happier every day!"

"Okay~" Gu Xi opened the gift from Gu Chenyi, which was a giant plush toy.

"Teddy bear?" Gu Xi guessed what she observed with the naked eye.

"It's not a bear, it's a rabbit," Gu Chenyi pulled out two long ears from the place where the packaging bag was pressed, and said to Gu Xi: "Hey, look, there are rabbit ears here."

Originally, this puppet toy was indeed a plush bear. However, because Gu Xi likes rabbits, Gu Chenyi specifically asked the boss to change the original ears of the teddy bear to long rabbit ears.

Gu Xi: "..." No wonder it looks a bit inconsistent, and I always feel that something is wrong.

"How about it, do you like it?" Gu Chenyi asked, looking at Gu Xi with expectant eyes.

"Hi, like it."

Gu Xi silently shifted her gaze to the package of gifts in Gu Yanxiao's hand.

A square gift box. It seems to be a lot more normal at last.

"Gifts for you, I hope Xixi will study hard in the new year, get full scores in the exam, and get the first place every time." Gu Yanxiao said to Gu Xi.

"Okay, thank you brother." Gu Xi said, she was about to reach out to pick up the gift box, but was stopped by Gu Yanxiao.

"Don't, this is a bit heavy, I'll move it in for you."

Then, Gu Xi watched as Gu Yanxiao directly carried the gift box in her hand into her room, and put it on the desk with a muffled sound.

—Sure enough, it's very important.

Gu Xi secretly said in her heart.

"What is this?" Gu Xi asked curiously.

"That's... the gift, you should be useful, put it here first, and you can take it apart later." Gu Yanxiao said, a little nervous in his tone.

Gu Yanxiao didn't know how Gu Xi would react if he saw that there were all exercise books in it, whether he would be happy or collapse.

Speaking of it, this box of exercise books was dropped into his hands when the school organized the Su Tuo event last time.

Gu Yanlin and Gu Chenyi were the first to give the things they wanted to give, so Gu Yanxiao thought about it, but only thought of this.

Hearing Gu Yanxiao's words, Gu Xi became more curious about the contents of the box.

"I also have a gift to give to you." Gu Xi smiled and looked at the three of them.

"For you, a New Year gift."

"What is this?" Gu Chenyi took out a small kit-like listing from the box.

"The amulet, I made it with my own hands. I opened it. It is very smart." The style of this amulet was made by Gu Xi secretly in the room before the Chinese New Year, stitching stitch by stitch on the Internet.

The styles of the three people are different. Gu Yanlin has embroidered a style of his studio logo on it, Gu Yanxiao has embroidered a basketball, and Gu Chenyi has a pattern of Erha's head on it.

After making them, Gu Xi sent three small listings to a well-known temple, specially invited the Taoist monks to bless them, and was finally sent back.

At the same table with a superstitious girl, Gu Xi became a bit superstitious under the influence of her ears.

The three of Gu Yanlin, who were not working, didn't know, but they heard that this small listing was made by Gu Xi personally, and the three immediately liked this New Year gift.



When the three of them left, Gu Xi answered in the room, her gaze fell on Gu Yanxiao's gift again.

Gu Xi unpacked the colorful packaging on the outside, opened the box, and it was two lines of characters: Teaching materials complete solution exercise book·New Year special edition spree.

Looking at the two lines, Gu Xi's eyes lit up.

The other sets of exercises Gu Xi came to ‘win’ through various means, and this set happened to be missing.

This gift won her heart!



Gu Xi collected the gifts that Gu Yanlin had given her one by one, and then changed clothes before leaving the room.

Gu Xi came to the first floor. At this time, the entire Gu family was busy.

The helpers who stayed at Gu's New Year's Eve are busy preparing the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening.

And everyone in Gu's family was not idle either.

Wang Pei arranged for the workers at home to make the final preparations, while Cui Min helped.

Father Gu was writing the Spring Festival couplets and the door blessings, and the three brothers Gu Feng were responsible for hanging the Spring Festival couplets and the blessing characters on the side.

Gu Yanlin, Gu Yanxiao, and Gu Chenyi were left sitting on the sofa obediently, playing with mobile phones.

At this time, Gu Xuan finally couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted at the three'Internet addicted teenagers': "You three, stop playing, come and help!"

Hearing Gu Xuan's words, the three of them took their phones and jumped up from the sofa quickly.

"Gu Yanlin took these couplets and the blessings outside to paste them, and Gu Yanxiao went over and took a look, don't post them crookedly." It is true that workers can also do these, but some things make sense only if they are done by themselves.

"In addition, Gu Chenyi, come here, and then record a video for Grandpa, don't forget to like it." The old man has recently become fascinated by Douyin, and he has to record and post everything he does, and write a spring couplet to show off.

Gu Xuan didn't want to admit that he was boring to record the video, so he asked his son to continue his work.

Seeing the lively scene in front of her, Gu Xi stood in the same place, her eyes stunned.

—Such a picture is a bit strange to Gu Xi.

When the Chinese New Year comes, the Lin family will also ask the servants to decorate the inside and outside of the villa, hang red lanterns, and paste decorations.

It's just that Zhang Cui will come and take Gu Xi to her before the real thirtieth day.

Zhang Cui lives in the place Song Kexin and Lin Yize bought for her after their marriage. The high-end community is in very good conditions, but Gu Xi and Zhang Cui always feel a little strange and deserted for the New Year.

At first, Gu Xi was puzzled by this matter: why she couldn't stay in Lin's house and celebrate the New Year in her own home.

Song Kexin would explain to her that it was because ‘grandma and grandma are not together for the New Year, and they both want to be accompanied by New Year, so Gu Xi and Lin Anxin will accompany grandma and grandma alone.

At first, Gu Xi was young and convinced Song Kexin's statement.

But then I think about it again. Whatever two people do not spend the New Year together is a lie. In the final analysis, it is just because Xu Jiaofeng is too concerned about Gu Xi’s identity. Gu Xi avoided.

Zhang Cui knew this too, so for the sake of her daughter's family harmony, she simply took Gu Xi away by herself.

There was only one year, because Zhang Cui’s niece needed to return to Zhang’s village to get married.

That was the only New Year Gu Xi spent in Lin's family.

On that day, the Lin family made a big table of New Year's Eve dinners, and the servants who were left behind also happily received red envelopes.

However, sitting at the dining table, facing a large table of dishes, it was obviously a dining table where I would sit every day. At that moment, Gu Xi felt like an outsider, looking out of tune with that dining table and everything around.

Gu Xi didn't know what other programs would be afterwards, because after dinner, Song Kexin asked Gu Xi to go upstairs to do homework.



When Gu Xi was in a memory and was dazed, Wang Pei, who was not far away, suddenly called her, pulling Gu Xi's meaning back from the memory.

"Come with regret."

When Wang Pei called herself, Gu Xi came back to her senses and ran towards the other party.

"Auntie."

Wang Pei first fed a small snack made in the kitchen to Gu Xi’s mouth. When she finished eating, he passed a bunch of small blessing knots to Gu Xi and said, “Xixi, you go and hang this on the second floor and the third floor. Above the doorknob, there is one at the door of each person's room. After hanging up, I will come down to have breakfast."

"it is good!"



Everyone was tumbling, and it was almost the afternoon.

Originally, everyone in the Gu family was ready to close the door and come home for the New Year, but as a result, guests actually came.

Seeing Mr. Shen coming to the door with a large bag and a small bag, Mr. Gu showed disgust and frowned without concealment.

"I said that the surname is Shen, you are not staying at your own home on your New Year's Eve, why are you here for me?" After a pause, Old Man Gu said again: "Even if you want to pay a New Year's greetings, you have to wait until after the second year. , Where is the truth in the New Year’s Eve."

Hearing Mr. Gu's words, Mr. Shen immediately retorted: "Who said I'm here for New Year's greetings."

"Then where did you come out of this whole thing again."

"Send New Year's goods, these, and these," Mr. Shen pointed to the big bags in his hand and his grandson's hands, and said: "It's all for you."

"These are all good things that I have carefully selected."

Hearing this, Old Man Gu curled his lips disapprovingly: "What's the matter, my Gu family still lacks these things?"

Having said that, Mr. Gu rolled his eyes again and muttered: "Is it necessary for you to send it?"

Moreover, based on his knowledge of the surname Shen, this old man picks up so many things, it is a problem that he will give him so many things.

Mr. Shen was speechless for a while by Mr. Gu's words, and it took him a long time to hold back his ‘big move’.

"What's the matter, do you still dislike the things you gave you?" Mr. Shen raised his voice and replied.

"Besides, based on the friendship between our two families, is it materially measurable? Even if it is a New Year greeting, I am earlier than others. What happened to the New Year greeting in the past 30 years?"

"You forgot, before you got married, don't talk about thirty. On twenty-nine, we ran into our house and stayed in our house until the fifteenth of the new year. What did I say?"

Mr. Shen's words, Mr. Gu really couldn't refute it, after all, it was a fact.

"Let's do it, come in and sit down." Mr. Gu greeted him and entered the house, and made Mr. Shen a pot of good tea that he would never give up.

"Your daughter-in-law, son-in-law, and the boy haven't they come back?" Seeing the two people who came today, Mr. Shen and Mr. Sheng Xiuyan, Mr. Gu asked.

"I can come back, but Sheng Yi has to be on duty until the third grade. Yiyi also went to the camp to accompany him for two days. After New Year's Eve, the two will come back together." Father Shen sipped his tea and explained truthfully.

As for Shen Ye, the simple thing is that he didn't bring it.

Having said that, Mr. Shen suddenly shook his head, sighed, and said with a bitter expression on his face: "Hey, it's not as lively as your home, our grandparents and grandchildren will be very deserted all year round, ah. "

As for Shen Ye, who was ‘free’ at home, he was still deliberately ignored by Mr. Shen.



Mr. Shen described himself and Sheng Xiuyan as lonely and lonely, as if they were "left-behind old people and left-behind children".

Hearing this, Mr. Gu rolled his eyes secretly.

—Don’t think he doesn’t know what the surname Shen is thinking about, isn’t he just trying to spend the New Year’s Eve dinner at their house?

Haha, I want to be beautiful!

"Hey, it's okay to be clean." As Grandpa Gu said, he added a cup of tea to Grandpa Shen.

Until the tea was about to overflow, Mr. Gu took back the teapot: "Oh, I'm sorry, my hands are shaking."

"..." Looking at the tea that was already in front of him, Mr. Shen twitched his mouth: Is he pretending to be stupid, or is he pretending to be stupid?



On the other side, Sheng Xiuyan handed a box in his hand to Gu Xi.

"What is this?" Gu Xi asked. new Year's gift?

"For you," After speaking, after a pause, Sheng Xiuyan explained: "It is the first generation of Xibao made before. I upgraded it a little bit, and then made a shell."

Hearing Sheng Xiuyan's explanation, Gu Xi's eyes lit up, and he took the box in the other's hand, and opened the outer box eagerly.

Inside, Gu Xi saw a small white machine, about the same size as the doll in the claw machine, but it was not the simple "Xibao" appearance that they had designed before.

"The outermost material is made of Cssdr molecular material, which is a bit like cloth, has a certain degree of softness, memory, and can be pinched, but at the same time it can maintain the original shape well, and this material will not affect Heat dissipation to the internal electronics..." Sheng Xiuyan explained aside.

Gu Xi didn't understand why Sheng Xiuyan made such a new material shell. He tried to pinch it, and it turned out to be soft and moveable.

Gu Xi took this'Xibao' out of the box and took a closer look.

"this is…"

"Pikachu? It faded? Or it hasn't been painted yet?" Gu Xi asked.

The whole machine looked a bit like Pikachu, but it was white.

"No, it was originally white." Sheng Xiuyan replied.

"Is that a mutant Pikachu?" Gu Xi continued to ask.

Sheng Xiu's mouth twitched: "It's not a mutation."

"This is a rabbit." Not Pikachu! Where is it like Pikachu? !

"Rabbit?" Gu Xi raised her eyebrows, and then took a closer look at the ‘Hi Bo’ in front of him. It was... still very much like Pikachu.

"However, how did you think of making it into a rabbit style? What about the previous one?" Gu Xi asked while holding the rabbit around and studying.

Their original design was an image of a little robot with a little dull hair.

"The appearance of'Xibao' should follow the previous design. This is for you."

"Huh?" Gu Xi looked at Sheng Xiuyan suspiciously.

But after hearing Sheng Xiu's words, he said again: "You didn't say you wanted a rabbit, but you..."

Halfway through what Sheng Xiuyan said, he got stuck.

"When did I say that I want a rabbit..." Gu Xi retorted subconsciously, and got stuck in the middle of speaking.

Gu Xi:! !

She has said it, but only in one place!
