Chapter 18 A Joyful and Warm Family Feast
At this time, the sky had already darkened, and Long Dou slowly returned to reality from his memories.
"Young master, Madame asked the slave maid to pick you up and take you to the front hall for dinner. Qing'er's delicate voice came from outside the door.
"Oh, got it, just wait outside the door!"
Long Dou stood up and looked himself up and down, this was the first time he had officially participated in a family banquet, so he should dress up well.
Although he was a little poor in his previous life, Long Dou had a lot of experience in dressing up.
When I opened the wardrobe, a faint fragrance came to my nose, and all kinds of clothes were dizzying.
He chose a white robe embroidered with flying swallows, the corners of the robe turned upside down, and the white jade belt tuck into his waist.
On his feet, he chose a pair of white deer-print leather boots, and his jet-black hair was combed in a neat bun on the top of his head, and he was put in a delicate white jade hair crown.
A snow-white silk crown band hangs from both sides of the jade crown, and a bow is tied on the lower forehead.
Long Dou, who was neatly dressed, picked up a bronze mirror on the table, looked at himself in the mirror, snapped his fingers and said, "You are indeed the most handsome man on the surface." ”
Long Dou pushed open the door and saw Qing'er who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and said with some doubts: "Sister Qing'er, why are you the only one?"
Qing'er, who heard the voice, turned her head, and the dragon fight in front of her made her stand on the spot.
The young man in white in front of him made Qing'er's eyes light up, and he looked like an angel who didn't eat fireworks in the world. He is so noble, elegant, and sunny.
“...... Yes...... Three...... Third Young Master, Mrs. originally asked Sister Ping'er to come over, but for some reason my sister suddenly said that she had a stomachache, so she replaced me. ”
Qing'er replied shyly with her head down, staring at her little hands with a pair of big eyes flickering.
Qing'er was stunned, Long Dou stepped forward and grabbed Qing'er's hand, smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go to dinner!" After speaking, he swaggered and pulled Qing'er and walked to the front hall.
Qing'er's face was already red to the base of her neck, but in the end, she couldn't help it and secretly glanced at Long Dou's side face. happily clenched Long Dou's warm hand.
The young man in white in front of him is no longer the cold third young master he used to be, he can give people more sunshine and warmth.
Long Dou and Qing'er slowly came to the front hall, at the top of the front hall gate, there is a black gold silk nanmu plaque, on which the dragon flying and phoenix dance are inscribed with three big characters "Mo Ya Stream".
Long Dou stepped into the main hall, the faint fragrance of sandalwood filled his side, and the delicate hollow carved wooden windows shone into the speckled and fine moonlight.
On the surrounding walls, there are some pleasing calligraphy and paintings, and in the middle hangs a painting of "Loyalty and Righteousness", which was personally presented to General Mo Han by the lord Cang Nantian.
It's not as palatial as you imagined, and the room is so fresh and relaxed.
At this moment, a strong smell of rice made Long Dou, who hadn't eaten anything serious for a whole day, have a great appetite.
Long Dou followed the aroma to the banquet hall, the family was already sitting together, the table of the eight immortals made of sandalwood, full of all kinds of delicacies, it looked so beautiful and delicious.
"Third brother, why is it so slow, come and sit here with the second brother, the whole family is waiting for you to eat. ”
Although Mo Yufeng had a hint of blame on his lips, his eyes were full of pampering.
Mo Yufeng has always wanted to get close to his younger brother, but his brother's withdrawn personality made him very troubled as an elder brother.
I remember that when I first learned that I was going to have a younger brother, Mo Yufeng was extremely happy, and put his ear on his mother's stomach every day, feeling his brother's heartbeat.
After his younger brother was born, Mo Yufeng, who was just ten years old, took on the role of the second brother, no matter where he went, he had to carry his younger brother on his back.
But for some reason, his younger brother, as he grew older, his personality became more and more weird, and he slowly began to alienate himself, and Mo Yufeng, who was the second brother, sometimes could only look at his younger brother from a distance.
"Hehe, I'm sorry everyone, I'm late, the child greets his father, his mother, and his second brother......"
After Long Douyi saw the salute one by one, he came to the second brother and sat down.
"Son, let's eat, my mother made you your favorite braised carp. Mother Nalan Yan sandwiched a piece of fish meat and put it in Long Dou's bowl.
This happy atmosphere once again made Long Dou feel the warmth of home.
"Hehe, thank you, mother, I'm moving!" Long Dou picked up the fish and tasted it carefully.
The meat of this fish is delicate, the soup is sour, fragrant and delicious, slightly spicy and not greasy, and the fish fillet is tender and yellow and smooth.
The fish broth is covered with a layer of bright red peppers, which makes the white pieces of fish extremely attractive.
Long Dou took another slice and put it in his mouth, it was sour and tender, and the taste was simply wonderful.
Give the dish to the other party and let him eat more good things, this is the warmth brought by the happiness of home.
A happy dinner came to an end with everyone's laughter.
"Dou'er, follow me to the study, because my father has something to say to you. After Mo Han finished speaking, he got up and left first, with a cold face and no expression to be seen.
After saying goodnight to his mother and second brother, Long Dou followed his father to the study.
The moonlight was hazy, as if covered with a thin veil, and the soft moonlight made the world seem so quiet and simple.
Father Mo Han, sitting on a Taishi chair in the middle of the study, looked at Long Dou's gaze, and was a little more loving at this time.
"Dou'er, I've been thinking about my father's words for a long time, and I've always decided whether to tell you or not, because you're still young and don't know if you can withstand this kind of blow. ”
"Father wants to talk about today's incident in the palace, right? Father asked the national teacher Ruofeng to divinate for Dou'er, Dou'er fainted because he didn't know why, and the rest of the matter is unknown, so my father told Dou'er if he had anything to say, and Dou'er was not afraid. ”
Mo Han looked at Long Dou's resolute eyes, and couldn't help but think of himself when he was young, and a little pride and relief rose in his heart.
"Haha, worthy of being my Mo Han's son, Dou'er, you remember, no matter how hard the road ahead is, you must face it bravely, and you must not back down, understand?"
"Dou'er understands, father, please rest assured. Long Dou noticed his father Mo Han's abnormal behavior, and he also faintly felt that something bad was going to happen to him.
Father Mo Han exhaled a long breath, and then told him everything that happened after Long Dou fainted.
Long Dou, who learned all the results, did not show any surprise and fright, but a calm and calm face, and that little bit of ease.
Mo Han was afraid that his son would be too excited, so he also prepared a set of comforting words in advance, but what he didn't expect was that his son's calmness made him feel helpless as a father for a while.
"Son, are you alright?" asked his father, Mo Han, tentatively.
Long Dou stretched his waist and smiled: "It's okay, that's it?"
