Chapter 714 Chinese New Year
It gets dark very early in Shuobei in winter.
When we first arrived in You, the sky had already darkened.
And the New Year's Eve dinner belonging to Yunzheng and the others has officially begun.
A group of little kids were put aside. Most of the table was filled with their favorite desserts. There was also a small copper pot with a stove in the middle. Two maids from the mansion were arranged to sit with them.
Although they are responsible for taking care of these little ancestors, it is already a great grace for them to be able to sit with these children.
On the other table is a large copper pot specially made by Yun Zheng.
It is exactly the same as the copper pot used to cook mutton in the north in the previous life.
Yunzheng and the others sat together, and Xin Sheng was also asked to sit down.
There are not only thinly sliced mutton and venison on the table, but also beef that is usually difficult to eat.
The day before yesterday, a cow from a wealthy family "accidentally" broke its leg. There was no way to cure it, so they had to report it to the government and plan to kill the cow.
When Yunzheng heard the news, he asked people in the mansion to buy the cow from that family.
For this reason, Yunzheng also helped the family pay the fine to the government.
The vegetables stored in the cellar were also brought to the table.
However, this variety is indeed lacking.
But this is an extremely rare thing for ordinary people.
Everyone sat together, eating hot hot pot and drinking wine, not to mention how happy they were.
"How about it? Isn't it more comfortable to eat than having a big table of food?"
Yunzheng ate a piece of delicious winter bamboo shoots and looked at Jia Yao with a smile on his face.
"really."
Ga Yao nodded slightly, "Especially your sauce, the taste is very special."
Yunzheng smiled, "You can promote this way of eating in Beihuan later."
"Forget it! Beihuan is poor and can't help but go through such trouble."
Ga Yao refused without thinking.
Beihuan was already short of salt and iron, let alone copper.
Most people in Beihuan use earthenware pots or stone pots. Only princes and nobles can afford copper pots.
Not to mention Beihuan, not many people in Daqian have access to copper pots!
"Look at you, you always use Bei Huanqiong as an excuse."
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "There are thirty thousand days in your life. Every day you pass is one less day. Enjoy it when you should enjoy it."
Jia Yao didn't believe Yun Zheng's lies. He glanced sideways at Qi Yan sitting on the small table next to him, and then looked at Yun Zheng meaningfully, "Is this how you taught Qi Yan?"
When she first came to the palace, she noticed the change in Qi Yan's face.
In just half a year, Qiyan seemed to have completely transformed into a Daqian man.
This is not a good thing for Qiyan.
"how is this possible?"
Yun Zheng laughed and said, "What I taught him was respecting teachers and persuading others with virtue. Don't worry, he is a child. How can I teach him to have fun?"
Respect for teachers?
Conquer people with virtue?
Jia Yao was so angry that his teeth itched, but he couldn't say anything. He could only pick out a piece of overcooked beef and put it directly into his mouth without even dipping it in the dipping sauce.
It looked like he was chewing Yunzheng's meat.
Seeing Jia Yao's gnashing of teeth, Ye Zi couldn't help but touch Yunzheng lightly.
Almost done.
Isn't Gaoyao not satisfied with even a meal during this Chinese New Year?
They will be together for many more days!
It's like this every day, doesn't he feel uncomfortable?
Yun Zheng smiled and said no more.
He really wasn't bullying Jia Yao, he just didn't want Jia Yao to live so tiredly.
Ga Yao hasn't even officially turned twenty yet!
If this were left in the past life, I would still be a college student.
Even if she has to worry about Bei Huan's future, she can enjoy herself when it's time to enjoy herself.
People have to find some fun outside of business.
Machines still need maintenance, let alone people?
After that, Yunzheng stopped saying things to Jia Yao that she didn't like to hear, and started chatting with Shen Luoyan and the others.
However, they only talked about domestic matters and did not talk about any major national affairs.
After drinking and eating, Qin Qihu's wife and one concubine, Miaoyin and Wei Shuang gathered together for a table of mahjong, while the others played a game of pot throwing at the house. Qin Qihu, who drank a little too much, went outside He punched a bunch of bastards in the snow, saying he wanted to cheer everyone up.
Jia Yao has excellent archery skills and is also very good at playing pot throwing games. He has won a lot of money.
Just when Jia Yao was enjoying playing, Mrs. Shen came over with a maid.
The maid also held a set of clothes in her hands.
There are fur coats on the outside, velvet clothes on the inside, and even mink velvet cloaks.
Looking at Mrs. Shen who came in front of him, and then looking at the clothes held in the hands of the maid, Jia Yao couldn't help but feel slightly absent-minded, "Could these be for me, right?"
"Of course it's for you."
Mrs. Shen nodded and smiled, "Tomorrow will be the new year. The servants and guards in the mansion all have new clothes. How can I be without you, the concubine? I made it for you based on Miaoyin's figure. , I don’t know if it fits or not, why don’t you try it first? If it doesn’t fit, it’s still too late to have it changed.”
"I……"
Jia Yao opened his mouth slightly and hesitated to accept the new clothes offered by the maid. He hesitated for a long time before speaking again: "I know it's not a good thing to say this today, but I still don't understand. Your husband and two sons are both dead. In the hands of my father, you...don't you hate me?"
"If you want to hate me, I will hate your father. I can't hate you."
A peaceful smile appeared on Mrs. Shen's face, "Of course, I don't really like Beihuan people, but when you are in the house, you are Yunzheng's concubine! Do you still hope that all of us will ignore you?"
Is that so?
Ga Yao was thoughtful.
After thinking carefully for a while, Jiayao bowed to Mrs. Shen and said, "Thank you, madam! There is no need to try on these clothes. The old madam is so considerate, so these clothes will definitely fit."
After saying that, Jia Yao took the clothes from the maid's hand.
Mrs. Shen smiled slightly and said to Qin Qihu: "There are a few of you too. When you leave later, I will ask my servants to take you to the carriage."
"We have one too?"
Qin Qihu smiled naively.
"Of course there is!"
Mrs. Shen looked at Qin Qihu with a smile and joked: "Otherwise, if your bastard father knew about it, he wouldn't be able to say that I treated you badly?"
"Thank you, madam."
Qin Qihu chuckled.
Not to mention, this guy who was celebrating the New Year felt a little uncomfortable when he didn't hear his father, Qin Liudaan's angry scolding.
I don’t know if this old guy is living well in the Imperial City.
The Holy One is not in the imperial city now. If this old guy beats up someone, I wonder if that old bastard Xu Shifu will use chicken feathers as arrows to deal with this old guy.
"Okay, stop saying these polite words."
Mrs. Shen chuckled, "Okay, you can continue playing, and I will also go and watch those girls playing mahjong."
With that said, Mrs. Shen left with her maid.
Jiayao couldn't help but feel a little lost in thought while holding the clothes in his hands.
"You won't be moved, will you?"
Shen Luoyan asked with a smile.
"Honestly, kind of."
Jia Yao nodded slightly and looked at Shen Luoyan with envy, "You have a good mother."
"Of course!" Shen Luoyan looked proud, "My mother is the best mother in the world!"
Jiayao smiled and did not refute.
It is understandable that the daughter feels that her mother is the best mother in the world.
Doesn't she also think that her mother is the best mother in the world?
Unfortunately, my mother has passed away many years ago...
