It’s a Bit Early To Cross

"Squeak!"

The courtyard door opened.

Good guy!

There were more than a dozen people standing outside, Du San, Han Xu, Wan Xiaotian, Cen Hao, An Rongyuan and others were all there, and even Xiao Niu and Xiao Ma came to join in the fun.

"Happy Chinese New Year, Master Chu!"

"Master Chu, you are auspicious!"

"Happy New Year to you, Master Chu!"

Seeing Chu Heng come out, a group of people came forward to pay their respects to the new year, and then walked into the yard at Chu Heng's invitation.

At this time Xiao Ni also got up, and was carrying the kettle to pour tea into the empty cup on the table. After they came in, she raised her head and smiled, and said generously: "Everyone is here, sit down."

"Sister-in-law happy Chinese New Year!"

"Happy Chinese New Year sister-in-law!"

A group of people hurriedly greeted each other, and they were all well-behaved and polite.

For this fairy-like little sister-in-law, they respected and feared it, because she was the eldest son of their family, offending her was worse than offending Chu Heng!

After being so polite, a group of people sat down one after another.

Chu Heng sat on the Kang and took a sip of tea, then cast his eyes on Wan Xiaotian, who looked like a local rich man. This kid was wearing a set of brand-new corduroy clothes, a pair of army hook leather shoes on his feet, and a shiny Shanghai watch on his wrist. , There are two pens stuck in the jacket pocket...

This was a show for him, as if he was really afraid that others would not know how rich he was.

He asked speechlessly: "When did your kid come back?"

"I arrived home on the night of the twenty-ninth." Wan Xiaotian hurriedly said, "But none of them came back. I left two people there to watch the house."

Chu Heng nodded clearly, and said, "How's business going?"

Wan Xiaotian regained his spirits immediately, and said excitedly, "It was so good a year ago, and I can count this amount in a day!"

As he spoke, he raised two fingers, meaning two thousand yuan.

"It's okay." Chu Heng wasn't too surprised. After all, the food at this time is definitely in high demand, so he was concerned again: "How much is left?"

"There are still some, the business will definitely be slow after the next year, and it may be no problem to last ten days." Wan Xiaotian said with a smile, and then hurriedly picked up the bird cage that had been covered with black cotton cloth under his feet, and walked up like a treasure: " Master Chu, look at what good things I brought you."

"What is it?" Chu Heng stretched out his hand to take it. From the moment he entered the room, he noticed the bird cage that this kid was carrying, and he was always curious about what kind of bird it was inside. So when he got it, he stretched out his hand and grabbed it. Covered with cotton cloth, it was lifted from below bit by bit.

When the cotton cloth was opened halfway, Chu Heng saw a black bird inside, more than 20 centimeters long, with a yellow beak, mung bean eyes, a tuft of black hairs on the forehead, and some wings on the wings. white spots.

"Brother?" He raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, it's mynah." Wan Xiaotian introduced happily: "I met this bird in Pigeon City, and I can learn the tongue. What a few words to him."

"You are lucky!"

At this moment, the mynah cooperated and spoke at the right time, his voice was hoarse but clear.

"Ah! You can really talk!" Xiao Ni, who was sitting by the side, saw this thing, her eyes widened in surprise, and she moved her head closer.

"It's interesting!" Chu Heng also showed interest.

Seeing this, other people in the room, except for Cen Hao, who brought two bottles of wine and a pack of pastries, frowned quietly.

Damn!

Where did this grandson touch this stupid bird?

"Speak, speak!"

Xiao Ni obviously likes this starling very much, and is currently teasing it with her hair, trying to make it speak again.

But this starling didn't show much face, so he stood in the cage and looked at her stupidly with his head tilted, his eyes full of... wisdom.

"Sister-in-law." Wan Xiaotian hurried forward, took out a small handful of light yellow rice grains from his pocket and handed it to her, saying: "This bird is greedy, you can talk when you feed it."

"Then give it to me quickly." Ni Yinghong quickly took it, put the fried rice in her snow-white palm, and brought it to the cage, blinking her beautiful eyes at the silly bird: "Come on, eat quickly."

Mynah hopped up to the side of the cage, and after taking a few mouthfuls of food, he said sensiblely, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Haha, it's so fun!"

Xiao Ni smiled with crooked eyebrows, her chest trembling wildly.

"If you like it, then keep it." Chu Heng handed the birdcage to his daughter-in-law, turned to look at Wan Xiaotian, and gave him an appreciative look: "You have a heart, kid."

"Hey, if sister-in-law likes it." Wan Xiaotian grinned, feeling light all over.

"Master Chu, look at what I brought."

Du San saw that the grandson was the first to take the lead, so he couldn't sit still immediately, and hurried forward with a small wine jar with a simple shape, and said with a smile: "This is the century-old daughter red that I entrusted someone to get from Shaoxing, I don't know if it is true or not. , show me."

"Hundred years old?" Chu Heng can be regarded as a little wine bug. Hearing this, he quickly put down the teacup he just picked up, reached out to take the small jar, smashed the mud seal on it without thinking, and After cleaning up the other layers of packaging, he gently opened the lid a little, and took a deep breath with his nose.

In an instant, an intoxicating aroma of aged wine flooded into the nostrils.

He closed his eyes with an intoxicated face, and after tasting it, he picked up the teacup beside him and handed it to Du San, and hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, give me this cup, I want to taste this tea." liquor."

"Come on!" Du San hurriedly took it, ran to the side, rinsed the cup with boiling water a few times, and then put it back on the kang table next to Chu Heng without feeling hot.

"Let me taste the taste of the century-old daughter's red!" Chu Henghou hurriedly opened the lid, poured a small mouthful into the glass, and carefully replaced the lid before picking up the warm wine glass and pouring it into the glass. The medium amber wine was drank in one gulp.

When the wine entered his mouth, there was a sudden burst of rich fragrance, and the mellow, sweet and fresh aroma of the wine bloomed in his mouth. He held it in his mouth and tasted it carefully for a long time before he was willing to swallow the wine.

"Phew!" Breathing out the smell of alcohol, Chu Heng's eyes were bright and sharp, and Long Yan said happily, "Good wine!"

"Plop!"

"Oh! What are you shouting, it frightens the birds!"

Xiao Ni on the side glared at him dissatisfied, and quickly handed over the fried rice in his hand, and comforted him softly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, take a quick bite to calm your shock."

"bounty happiness!"

The silly bird said something auspicious crisply, and then jumped over to continue eating, which made Xiao Ni happy for a while.

"The birds in my family have never seen you so caring~www.readwn.com~ Chu Heng rolled his eyelids speechlessly, and held the five-jin wine jar in his hands like a baby.

Seeing this, Wan Xiaotian felt annoyed.

If I had known earlier, I would have sent wine too!

"Master Chu!"

An Rongyuan was not far behind, Pidiandian handed a box forward, and said: "I heard that you like jade, so I touched some."

"That's right, come on, let me take a look." Chu Heng took it over and took a look. There are quite a lot of jades in the box, and there are many types, including white, yellow, green and ink, and there are many high-quality jades among them.

However, he had a lot of these things in his warehouse, and there was nothing new about them, so he reluctantly praised them and put them aside.

An Rongyuan was immediately disappointed. He could tell that Chu Heng liked these jade wares a little bit, but not much. It was far less popular than Wan Xiaotian's starling and Du San's century-old daughter.
