After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 520 This kid has too many secrets

Aunt Xiao finally realized: "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. The New Year is coming soon, and I really haven't prepared any gifts for the New Year."

Xia Wanniang put the tiger-head shoes aside: "It's not too late to prepare now. It's still early."

Aunt Xiao: "There are quite a few people we need to send off this year, and we also need to send off people in the capital. Now that your status is different, you can't be careless."

Xia Wanniang: "Then what should we send to the capital?"

Aunt Xiao thought that the New Year gifts given by the Xiao family in the past were all quite conventional, but Xia Wanniang’s status was different now.

If the gift is not good, I'm afraid people will find fault with me, but I'm a bit troubled about what to give.

There is no shortage of strange and bizarre things in Xia Wanniang's space: "Mom, let me take them out for you to see. If you think they are suitable, write them down. We will sort out the quantities and send them to the capital."

Aunt Xiao thought it was feasible: "Okay, you can discuss it with us."

Xia Wanniang first took out a mirror, but this mirror had some decorations on it, making it look more upscale.

Aunt Xiao looked in the mirror and was satisfied: "It would be better if there was a makeup box or something like that."

Xia Wanniang took out her makeup box again and opened it to show Aunt Xiao. There was also rouge and powder inside: "What about this?"

"That's fine. We'll give you ten." Aunt Xiao wrote on the paper.

Xia Wanniang took out the music box again, and when she wound it up, she could play beautiful music.

Aunt Xiao also thought it was feasible and added some more items to the gift list.

After careful selection, the two of them finally prepared the gifts to be sent to the capital. They asked Chai Song to call the people from the escort agency and asked them to be responsible for delivering the gifts to the capital.

They selected some suitable gifts from these and prepared to give them to several generals and familiar families.

After Aunt Xiao dealt with the New Year gifts, she asked, "Why haven't I seen Zhuyao recently?"

Xia Wanniang: "I asked her to study spices. This girl is not only good at embroidery, but also has a keen interest in spices. I plan to let her try."

Aunt Xiao smiled and nodded: "This child is smart. He basically learns everything very quickly and very attentively."

Xia Wanniang: "Mother, my husband told me that he won't be back for the New Year."

"It's as they should be. It's rare for the generals' families to come and reunite with them. It's time to let them have a good reunion." Aunt Xiao expressed her understanding.

Before Xiao Chiye left, he called Qingfeng, Xu Li and Qiu He away.

The three of them were led to the military camp by him in confusion: "Xiao Sanlang, why did you bring us to the military camp for no reason?"

Xiao Chiye left the three of them in the tent and said, "Stay here, I'll come back and talk to you later." Then he left.

Qingfeng looked puzzled: "Did something happen?"

Xu Li frowned: "Could it be outside the Great Wall?"

Qiu He waved his hands quickly: "Impossible, the situation outside the pass is very stable now, and the free trade zone outside the city has solved a lot of their problems. I haven't received any news either."

The two of them racked their brains but couldn't figure out why Xiao Chiye had captured three people and brought them to the military camp.

Xiao Chiye called the generals in the barracks together and said, "I called you all here today for something."

Zhu Guanglin looked puzzled: "What's the matter?"

Xiao Chiye didn't waste any words: "There is a kind of poison here. If you don't betray me and don't have bad intentions, it won't have any effect. But if you have bad intentions, you will die from the pain of gnawing your heart."

Yu Gaoyi and the others were all confused: "What do you mean?"

"That's what I mean. If you are willing to eat it, it will be beneficial. If you don't want to, I won't force you." Xiao Chiye's attitude was very calm.

Ke Zheng and the others were a little unsure. Could it be that this kid had committed treason?

No way!

Xiao Chiye: "I won't harm you. That's all I can say."

Everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke.

Qian Kun reached out and took the medicine bottle, looked at Xiao Chiye and asked, "Is it really good?"

Xiao Chiye nodded without changing his expression.

Qian Kun poured out a pill from the bottle and smelled it, but didn't smell anything: "In that case, I'll trust you, kid. Anyway, I haven't thought of betraying anyone." After saying that, he was about to throw it into his mouth.

Zhu Guanglin grabbed his hand and said, "Old Qian, think about it again."

Qian Kun looked at Zhu Guanglin, then at Xiao Chiye: "This kid has too many secrets. I have been curious for a long time. I am afraid that if I don't eat it, I will never know in this life."

Yu Gaoyi touched his chin and said, "It seems that what you said is right. I am also quite curious. If I could beat him, I would have tied him up and tortured him to extract a confession."

Ke Zheng looked at the man who had basically grown up under their watch: "Chiye, can eating it help us learn something?"

Everyone looked at Xiao Chiye in unison, waiting for his answer.
