The bellows whirred and pulled, and the red flames in the hearth also reflected Chu Zhaohui's smiling face, and Su Riying's white face was as ruddy as jade, and the smile became more and more cheerful.

There are three kinds of dumpling fillings, most of the soldiers eat fragrant pork and green onion filling, and a small number of Hui soldiers enjoy the delicious taste of mutton soup, Chu Zhaohui and a few soldiers who believe in Buddhism and do not eat meat and fish, choose frozen tofu fungus and egg dumplings with vegetarian filling.

The dumplings that had just come out of the pot were hot and exuding aroma, and the cook filled a large plate and sent it to Chu Zhaohui's tent.

Do it yourself, have plenty of food and clothing. Chu Zhaohui ate the simplest but sweetest Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in her life, wearing the most simple dress in her life, but felt unprecedentedly happy in decades.

Thousands of miles away in the old Lang Mansion, Chen Huanshan and Chen Huanzhong two brothers rushed back to Beijing on the 23rd of the lunar month to report on their work, and Chen Mansion attached great importance to the most complete reunion dinner in these years.

On Chinese New Year's Eve last year, Chen Rujun's family was still on their way from Huaizhou to the capital. His own future is uncertain, the second son stayed in the old house, the eldest daughter is sick in Yangzhou, the family is deserted, the dumplings on the twenty-third day of the lunar month can be imagined, and the natural food does not know the taste.

At this time this year, he was the official and the second assistant of the cabinet, and his ambition to serve the country was realized, which was full of spirit. The two sons have just entered the career and naturally give birth to calves; the son-in-law has been sharpened for ten years and sees the sword unsheathed; the three daughters are gentle and filial, and they are happy on their knees; the virtuous wife is teasing her grandson, and the family is harmonious and happy, and there is no need to worry about it.

Mrs. Liu has been holding a Chinese New Year's Eve banquet since the morning, and Chen Huanzhong's wife Xie Shi is with her side to help, and the two have always been close, but now they have not seen each other for a year, so naturally they are indispensable for affectionate greetings.

In Murong Ling's main room, a few children with pink carvings were playing on the Luohan couch, reflecting a few bottles of red plum bottles on the windowsill, and the scene was like the picture of a hundred sons making a spring on the table screen.

Chen Xinhua led his two younger sisters to sit on the big kang near the window, and cut various colors of window flowers with red silk with the little girls, and asked the maids to paste them next to the window, and the atmosphere of the Spring Festival became more and more intense.

The two brothers of the Chen family washed away the dust and dust along the way, met with their mother and sisters, and followed their father to the outer study, and the father and son had to discuss the situation in Jiangyin in detail.

When passing through Wuxi, the new Wuxi Taishou Lu Tongzhang was originally from Lishan Academy, and he set up a banquet to entertain the two brothers in the palace, and seriously mentioned the strangeness of the Liang family in Wuxi, and asked them to tell Chen Rujun to know.

Chen Huanshan bowed his hand to his father and said: "Senior Brother Lu deeply feels that the Liang family is acting strangely, and after careful investigation, the Liang family actually collected military supplies such as grain, grass, medicine and other military supplies before the rebellion that day, and the amount is really beyond imagination. Although they were all confiscated afterwards and appeared to be extremely cooperative, Senior Brother Lu always suspected that they had colluded with the traitors in private. ”

Chen Huanzhong also said: "This news comes from the son of the new household servant Lord Wu, the current Yangzhou County Warden Wu Cheng, when his son passed through Yangzhou, he also made a special mention of it. Senior Brother Lu has already paid a lot of attention to it, but now that there is no evidence, it is difficult to arrest people at will. ”

The Jiangyin Gang is all a raccoon dog, the Liang family and the sticky family can make a fortune, except for doing some bad business, they have too close personal relations with Qian Weizhen and Liu Ben, and they are very much digging a pot of gold.

Yangzhou Sticky Family was set up by Chen Xinhua, and was defeated in the battle to support Huitong Qianzhuang, and the entire net worth was equivalent to being classified into the imperial court in disguise, and now it is in a slump.

The Liang family in Wuxi is different, this military material alone cannot move the Liang family's bones. Since Master Liang is willing to hand it over quickly, he must want to hide the bigger plot behind it.

Chen Rujun put five strands of black whiskers under his chin, and quickly calculated in his heart. The merchant is willing to spit out the goods in his mouth, and there must be something more exciting for him to swallow.

Thinking of Su Duhan's move, the last stop was Wuxi. And walked side by side with the eldest lady of the Liang family, swaggering all the way through the market, Chen Rujun deeply felt that there were still some stories in it.

Qian Weizhen is now in the Imperial Prison and will be tried by the Criminal Department and Dali Temple. He wrote two letters and ordered people to send them separately to the mansion of Lord Wei of the Criminal Department and Lord Shen of Dali Temple, asking them to interrogate Qian Weizhen and others, not to let go of clues like the Liang family, and to see if they could chisel out anything.

A pair of little grandsons from a rich family have them in their hands, and they don't have to worry about pry money open. Although this is not a good move, it cannot have the kindness of a woman. For the livelihood of the world, Chen Rujun does not be such a foolish person.

As for the Liang Jinji in the capital, Chen Rujun had already told Xia Yuzhi that the people who had ordered the hidden dragon guard early were targeted, and every move was under their control, and they were not afraid that the Liang family would make waves in the capital.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the family banquet of the Chen Mansion kicked off in the warm pavilion. Looking at the virtuous wife on the side, the beautiful woman was sitting, Chen Rujun smiled happily, and drank two cups of Huadiao wine, and the family affection became longer and longer.

Cui Yao met with the two uncles and was naturally overjoyed. On weekdays, although Chen Rujun has the heart to give advice, Cui Yao is still a little restrained in the face of his father-in-law, who is in a high position, and he is not as comfortable as his generation.

The two uncles are both born in the two lists, they are rigorous in their studies, and they are ready-made teachers, Cui Yao first bowed deeply to the two, and after the banquet, they went to his outer study to sit together.

On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, every day is like the New Year.

It has been a year since Su Rui's death, and on the night of this year's Chinese New Year's Eve, King An's Mansion also hung up red lanterns, slightly reducing the gloomy atmosphere of the main mother's absence at home.

Xin Mei was still discussing with the mothers-in-law in the warm pavilion, and ordered everyone to bring back the new clothes of the people under them and put them on. Piles of brand-new copper coins were tied with red ropes, and a large dustpan was piled up, ready to be rewarded for the slaves.

The mansions that should be moving, the family walked around for Chu Zhaohui, gave New Year's gifts according to the practice of previous years, and registered the return gifts of each prefecture, which was still in order.

Now that he is a relative of the Zhou Mansion, Xin Mei also specially sent some abalone ginseng wings the day before yesterday to make up for Mrs. Zhou's body. stayed in Zhou's house for dinner, specially made an appointment with Wen Wan, and invited her to have a small gathering with Mrs. Zhou on the second day of the new year.

Although Chu Zhaohui is not here this year, the Queen Mother is still a long-term lover, but I am afraid that she will still call herself into the palace. Xin Mei invited the old butler to come and ordered him to set up a few tables for a banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve, and set up some fireworks so that the slaves who had been busy for a year could also take turns to be lively.

On the 28th, the palace really came to the queen mother's message, in addition to sending some rewards, but also Xin Mei entered the palace on the afternoon of the 30th of the lunar month to participate in the queen mother's family banquet in the Chonglou Pavilion.

Last year, she and Concubine Du accompanied Chu Zhaohui, the poor heartbroken man, and just forced to laugh in front of the queen mother. This year, Concubine Du has already entered the ground, Chu Zhaohui is far away in the border city, and on the way to Shoukang Palace, he is left with only one person. ...
