After dinner in the evening, Lu Gu washed the dishes, Shen Yan brought in a jujube cake and shared half of it with him.

The jujube cake was made for Ji Qiuyue, Shen Yan was greedy after eating one, but was afraid that Wei Lanxiang would say that she was too gluttonous, so she said that Brother Guzi wanted to eat it too, so she brought a small one and came over.

Lu Guteng couldn’t take the cake with his hands, so Shen Yan stuffed the cake in his mouth directly. The jujube cake was soft and sweet, with a rich jujube fragrance. This cake is better than pears, and there was no need to afraid even if you keep it in the cold weather. Eating winter pears was too gritty, so it could only be eaten after boiled it with brown sugar water or plain water.

"I'll boil the water." Shen Yan was eating the cake, and when Lu Gu finished scooping up the water and wiped the pot clean, he went outside to take the firewood to boil more water to wash and soak feet at night.

Lu Gu went outside the door to wash the pot to boil the water. Before he could go back to the kitchen, he saw a tall figure in the distance. Shen Xuanqing came back, Dahui and the puppy who were playing in the village followed him.

When Shen Xuanqing got closer, he held the pot and smiled slightly, he said, "Have you eaten? I'll warm up the meal for you."

Shen Xuanqing also smiled, and the two of them walked together after he said "um".

As soon as he entered the door and saw Wei Lanxiang, Shen Xuanqing said, "Mother, the official seal is stamped"

"It’s good." Wei Lanxiang felt more at ease. Although it was Shen Xuanqing's land, they did’t separate the family and lived together. In the future, when Shen Xuanqing went up the mountain, Shen Yaoqing would do the work in the fields, and she would also help. The more land they owned and the more rice they would harvest, their lives would be better.

Since he bought the lands by himself, Shen Xuanqing himself who kept the deed, and he went into his room to put it away, and after a while Lu Gu also came in.

"I put the bamboo steamer on the pot, Yanyan still boiling the water and when it boils, it will be hot." After not seeing each other for a day, Lu Gu was still trying to find something to say, even he himself didn't know why.

Now he also called Yanyan, imitated Ji Qiuyue. Because Shen Yan was young, usually at home they would call her with her first name and surname or with her nickname, all mixed up, and Wei Lanxiang would either call her by her first name directly, or call her little girl.

"The deed, you keep it." Shen Xuanqing handed the deed to Lu Gu.

Now that Lu Gu had read a lot of characters, he opened the land deed and saw that there was a red official seal on it, and the thin piece of paper was exactly the deed of their family's five acres of lands.

"And this." Shen Xuanqing took out a red envelope from his bosom, which contained something.

Hearing that Lu Gu raised his eyes, he saw a silver bracelet in the opened red envelope. He was a little panicked, and he couldn't tell who Shen Xuanqing bought it for.

How could  ordinary people buy two silver jewelry in a short period of time, besides, the silver hairpin was still new and had never been worn, so Lu Gu didn't think that the bracelet was for himself.

"You wear it, the hairpin is easy to fall off, but this one won't fall off." Seeing him in a daze, Shen Xuanqing took his left hand, put the silver bracelet on his hand, and said, "Wear the hairpin during the New Year, if you don’t know how to comb your hair, you can find sister-in-law or mother, they both know how to do it."

The family's new clothes for the New Year were about to be made, and Shen Xuanqing knew about it, he was also happy to let her fulang wear new clothes and hairpins.

Lu Gu's hands were clenched together, and Shen Xuanqing put the silver bracelet on him with a little effort. It was not too big or too small, and it was just right. The shiny silver bracelet had exquisite patterns. The first time he wore bracelet, he felt that his wrist was a little heavy, giving him a sense of presence.

"The thin one is for Shen Yan, and the thick one is for my mother. Both of them will have something to wear during the New Year."

Shen Xuanqing took out two more silver bracelets, he  said, "In the future, if there is something good I will buy it for you, or if you like any jewelry, just tell me."

Lu Gu’s thought was always simple, Shen Xuanqing bought him a hairpin and silver bracelet because he valued him, now he couldn't say anything else, so he said "um".

For a moment, he couldn't help but tugged at the corner of Shen Xuan's clothes, he looked up and met those star eyes, then moved away embarrassingly.

Shen Xuanqing looked at him with a smile. Although the two were silent, they were both very happy.     

After a while, Shen Yan shouted from the kitchen: "Second brother, the meal is hot."     

"Okay, I'm here." Shen Xuanqing replied.     

Lu Gu loosened the corner of his clothes, he blushed and said, "I'll get it."     

After speaking, he hurried to the kitchen.     

"Mother, I bought this for you, a new bracelet for the New Year. "When Shen Xuanqing came out and saw Wei Lanxiang, he took out the silver bracelet.     

Wei Lanxiang was rubbing rawhide in a dustpan. It would be the twelfth lunar month in a few days. No matter whether it was five beans or eight beans, you had to cook beans and peanuts. She looked up and saw that Shen Xuanqing bought her a silver bracelet. She wiped her hands on her clothes, only then she dared to take it, and asked him with a smile on her face: "Is this expensive?"

"You don't have to worry about it, just wear it." Seeing that she was happy, Shen Xuanqing showed her the silver bracelet for Shen Yan. It was a little thinner, but it was just right for her young age.

Wei Lanxiang used to have a lot of silver jewellery, but they were all sold later.

It just so happened that Shen Yan came into the main room, and when she heard that it was a bracelet for her, her almond-eyed eyes widened, and Shen Xuanqing couldn't help laughing when he saw her like this.

"Second brother, is this really for me?" She took the bracelet and asked.     

"Of course."

Shen Xuanqing smiled and asked her: "Who is better, big brother or second brother?"

"Second brother."

Shen Yan replied without thinking, but it was heard by Shen Yaoqing who came out of the room and immediately grabbed her pigtails and scolded her with a smile: “ Good Shen Yan, yesterday you also said that big brother is good, and I gave you the fish."

Shen Yan protected her pigtails. Yesterday she ate the fresh fish caught by Brother Daqing, and Brother Erqing bought her a bracelet today, so she was very entangled in her heart. After some hesitation, she said carefully: "Then Big Brother and Second Brother all good? "

It was Wei Lanxiang who felt sorry for her daughter's braids, and raised her hand to slap Shen Yaoqing's hand that wanted to pull Shen Yan's braids, and scolded him with a smile: "Don't pull her hair anymore."

Only then did Shen Yaoqing stop with a smile. He knew that he didn’t make money as much as his second brother, but he was not jealous either. Everyone had their own destiny.

Besides, he himself had the strength to work in the fields, and earned no less than other people in the village. Now even if he didn't have much money and he could 't buy bracelets for his sister and mother, but you could also make them happy by buying headband.

Shen Yan wore the bracelet beautifully, and she didn't think the two elder brothers were annoying.
