Listening to his two sons, the phrase 'it takes more than one cold day to freeze three feet deep' suddenly surfaced in Li Jin's mind.

His tan is not the result of just one month.

Previously, when studying with Mr. Song, he would leave early in the morning under the stars and moon, and return at noon under the scorching sun, walking for more than an hour. Later, when he went to the prefectural city, he spent day after day reading and practicing calligraphy. 


He practiced calligraphy in the courtyard and by the pool, so getting sunburned was inevitable.

However, recently he has been constantly on the move, spending more time in the sun. Coupled with the fact that Xiao Baozi is learning more and more, the previous scene came about.

After the little leopard finished his first sentence, his father's eyes widened in surprise, exclaiming, The leopard can call me daddy now.

As for the last word hey that was pronounced inaccurately, he simply ignored it.

At this moment, Erzai indeed gave face and said, Dad!

Although the pronunciation is still not standard, it is worlds apart from the dada his brother used to call when he first learned to speak.

Erzai calling him dad perfectly erased the trauma Li Jin had just received.

Xiao Baozi was completely unaware of what his younger brother had said at first. He joyfully exclaimed, My little brother can finally talk!

The little leopard being able to speak indeed added to the festive atmosphere at home as the New Year approached.

Qin Muwen asked Xiaocha to sew new clothes for the two children. They bought top-quality cotton and chose fabrics of the same color series. They planned to change into these clothes together on the first day of the Lunar New Year, which would be extraordinarily festive.

As for Qin Muwen, he was sewing clothes for Li Jin to wear for the imperial examination. 

However, the list has not yet been released to announce how many layers of padded jackets can be worn, so Qin Muwen is temporarily sewing single-layer clothes and semi-finished padded jackets. He even prepared a leather jacket.

Last year, when Wan Yun took the imperial examination, the court stipulated that padded jackets could not be worn to prevent smuggling, so only single-layer leather clothes could be worn.

Now, if you don't prepare fabrics and leathers early, after the list is announced in January, all the clothing shops in the capital will not only raise prices, but you may not be able to grab them.

As the New Year is approaching, Zhu Shan still goes to the dock every day without fail.

Li Jin naturally goes with him. At this time, there are fewer people on duty in the Ministry of Works. He started to make some fine adjustments to the ship model by himself, with no one following him, feeling very free.

In the past, when Li Jin and Zhu Shan were doing things, people would always gather around them, not to say that they were staring at them and not allowing them to touch anything at will.

Those people also have a learning mentality, but they are a bit too enthusiastic. Many times, when Li Jin and Zhu Shan just had an idea, a bunch of people around them would start asking questions. Sometimes, Li Jin didn't even know how to explain.

On the day before New Year's Eve, Li Jin and Mr. Zhu Shan no longer went out, but stayed at home for the New Year.

The member Wailang of the Secretary of the Qing dynasty was very clear about this, and he directly sent someone to send them the 'New Year's goods' on this day.
