The next day, Zhan Xiaoyan slept late, and didn't wake up until midnight, when there was movement in the courtyard. Zhan smiled and walked to the window, pushed open the window and looked out, only to realize that everyone was already busy. The brothers were pulling weeds, Lou Qingyang and Yan Qihao were clearing the cobwebs on the pillars and hidden corners, Fang Bo and Aunt Fu were wiping the doors and windows, and even Liang Shiyun was helping to hand over the things they needed in time. Zhan smiled slightly, went to the kitchen to fetch hot water, and after washing up, he also went out to help.

She had already told Uncle Fang before that she would return to the Northern Yan Kingdom with her younger brothers and sisters after the New Year, and she might come to the Eastern Wei Kingdom again in the future, or she might stay in the Eastern Wei Kingdom all the time, so let the couple continue to live in the Zhanfu and guard the Zhanfu. Although he was reluctant, he agreed, so he knew that this was the first cleaning of the Zhanfu, but it would not be the last, and the family would sit together in the evening and eat the first reunion dinner in the Zhanfu.

After a busy morning, the outside has been tidied up, and now Aunt Fu and Zhan Xiaoyan are making lunch, and in the afternoon, as long as the room is tidied up, but it won't take long, because I haven't lived for long, so it's probably sorted out, and then I start preparing the reunion dinner!

Zhan Xiaoyan and others here are busy preparing for the reunion dinner in the evening, on the other side of the palace, the queen mother has already woken up, and she is completely fine at this time, as long as she drinks the patch at night, Guan Lao also proposed to the emperor to leave the palace, and now it is the end of the day, he has also eaten lunch, and the queen mother has taken the pulse again, her situation no longer needs to continue to stay.

"Thank you really for Senior Guan this time, so I don't know what kind of reward Senior Guan wants? Whether it's a good medicinal herb, or a rare incense, as long as it's what you want, and there is something in the palace, I can satisfy you! The emperor said very generously, and he also knew that people who knew medical skills did not need gold and silver, and they must like medicinal materials more, and there was no shortage of high-quality medicinal materials in the palace.

"Emperor Xie, but what the old man needs is a high-quality horse! Today is the end of the year, and the old man and his four grandchildren have been in the Eastern Wei Kingdom for a while, so if they want to wait for the next year, the weather will be a little warmer, so they will go back to the Northern Yan Kingdom, after all, there are all traces of our lives. Guan Lao was not polite, and directly made a request, and pointed out the purpose of his reward.

"Oh, is it? In this case, then Gonggong Yuan, take Guan senior to the stable, let him pick a good horse, and then let the senior out of the palace! As Senior Guan said, today is the last day of this year, I believe that Miss Zhan Xiaoyan Zhan must have prepared a reunion dinner at home, waiting for you to go back to eat! When Gong Zhengze heard him say this, his eyes flashed, but he would not refuse his request at this time, so he commanded Gonggong Yuan.

"Emperor Xie, the old man retires!" Guan Lao said, and followed Gonggong Yuan out of the imperial study. No matter what, he has already made his words clear, and I believe that the emperor has understood what he means, so if they leave after more than ten days, it will not be regarded as not saying hello to him, and they can leave without any scruples. Guan Lao walked briskly, already thinking about what kind of reunion dinner he would eat in his mind, and he didn't know what kind of dishes he would have? I believe that no matter what kind of food there is, as long as it is made by the girl, it must be very delicious, and he can drink a few more glasses of wine!

The reunion dinner has dumplings, fish, broth, roast chicken, and finally fruit soup, of course, there are six cold dishes next to it, needless to say, these five are hot dishes in the middle, although there are ten people, but the amount of dishes is more, and it is also very enough. Uncle Fang also went to buy firecrackers, planning to wait for some to be put on the occasion, there are already a lot of firecrackers around, which will be put when there is vacant land at home, I believe that at this time, the countryside is much more lively than the town.

"Okay, the reunion dinner is ready, let's sit down quickly! Today's delicious food is enough, and the wine is enough, so if you want to drink, don't be polite, even if you drink a few more glasses, the decanting soup is already boiling on the stove, don't worry about hangovers and headaches! Zhan Xiaoyan made the last fruit soup, put it in hot water and heated it, and saw that the hour was almost the same, it was already three quarters of the unitary hour, so he greeted everyone.

"Okay, of course you're welcome! Whether it's for your craft, or for a few more glasses of wine, you have to eat this reunion dinner, I believe you will be full! Guan Lao was the first to say, and then he sandwiched the fish and meat, and put them in the bowls of Xiao Yan, Zhan Xiaoning, Zhan Xiaoyu and Zhan Xiaotian one by one, eating fish is good for the body, especially for children who are still growing their bodies.

"Grandpa, we toast you and wish you good health and good luck in the new year!" Zhan Xiaoyan poured a glass of boiled water for himself and his younger siblings, and then raised his glass to Guan Lao. This is the first year that Guan Lao has spent with them, and it is also the first time he has eaten this reunion dinner with them as a grandfather, of course, he must give him a good drink, and they will always live together in the future!

"Good, good! Then I'll dry this glass of wine, and you can drink it slowly. Guan Lao said, and drank the wine in the cup. Although wine is very delicious, sometimes, it is necessary to have a word of advice to make the wine more delicious and easier to eat!

The reunion dinner was very lively, the men were drinking, the girls were chatting with each other, even if there were no relatives around, it was very good to have such friends around. And in this foreign country, such a reunion dinner is also very delicious. Zhan smiled and looked at the harmonious appearance in front of her, and the smile on her face never stopped, because this is what she has always wanted to see, and it is everything she has been trying to protect, so it's good!

The reunion dinner was eaten until the time of the child, everyone finished the New Year, and then they went back to their rooms to sleep, the men were drunk, only the old man and Uncle Fang were still a little sober, so they let them drink the sobering soup, and let them go back to their rooms to sleep, it was already a new year, the first hour of the first day of the new year!

After Zhan Xiaoyan cleaned up the kitchen, she didn't go back to the room immediately, but came to the garden with hot tea and snacks, because she didn't have any sleepiness at this time, and her heart was also full of satisfaction and happiness, so she needed to calm down, drink a few cups of tea, and then stay alone for a while.

When she came to the pavilion and sat down, she poured herself a cup of tea with a smile and didn't drink it immediately, because she made tea with boiling water, so she picked up a piece of dim sum and ate it first, thinking back to all the things she had done since she was reborn until now, to see if there were any things that she had mishandled and if there were any things that she had neglected. Fortunately, until the end, Zhan Xiaoyan has never found such a situation, and her efforts have always been visible, all relatives and friends are very good, and no one has anything bad, so it's good!

The tea cooled slightly, Zhan Xiaoyan took it up and drank it slowly, after drinking a cup of tea, Zhan Xiaoyan's mouth couldn't help but start humming "The Wanderer's Yin", which is a poem with six sentences and five words - the line in the mother's hand, and the wanderer's shirt. Before leaving, I am afraid that I will return late. Whoever says an inch is careless, and he will be rewarded with three springs. It's never been made into a song, so Zhan Xiaoyan just hums it casually, without a specific tune, just humming it with her own feelings.

"Father, mother, now Xiaotian, Xiaoyu and Xiaoning are all eight years old, Xiaotian and Xiaoyu brothers have been in school all the time, they have already read and reasoned, Xiao Ning's eyes have been treated by Grandpa God, and they can be seen this year, so you don't have to worry, please rest in peace in the spirit of heaven!" Zhan Xiaoyan hummed on both sides, then knelt down and said to the sky. The only regret after being reborn is that she still missed her parents and didn't see their last face, so she had to use a paintbrush to paint their appearance again and again, so that she would not forget their appearance.

Half an hour later, a pot of tea had been drunk, and the snacks had been eaten, so Zhan Xiaoyan went back with the teapot and empty plates. The emotions in my heart have calmed down, and now I go back to sleep, and I will be able to sleep immediately. This is the first time she has spent the New Year in the Eastern Wei Kingdom since she was reborn, and I believe it is also the last time, although she may come to the Eastern Wei Kingdom in the future, she will not choose the time when the New Year is about to be.

Yan Qihao walked out of the corner after Zhan Xiaoyan left, because he drank too much at night, so he got up at night, but he just saw Zhan Xiaoyan blowing out the candles in the kitchen and walking out, and he followed. She stayed in the pavilion for half an hour, and he also accompanied her in the dark for half an hour, listening to her singing, listening to what she said to her parents, feeling her some excitement today, such a strong and fragile, sensible and thoughtful, like a ten-year-old and not like a ten-year-old girl, sometimes it is really distressing.

Because she always shows her strong side, and then leaves the fragility and exhaustion to her back, she will not say to anyone, and only in the dark and when others can't see it, she will relax a little. Because of the death of her parents, she has to support everything in the family, in order to create a carefree living environment for her younger brothers and sisters, she has to pay a lot of hard work and efforts, the hard work only she knows, but she will always only show a relaxed and gentle side in front of Zhan Xiaoning and the other three, and only she can feel sorry for herself.

Thinking about what she said to Guan Lao before, even if she looks for a husband in the future, she will find an orphan without parents and brothers as the premise, obviously because she is afraid that if she finds a man with parents and relatives, she will have to leave the three of them because of this, and she will not be able to be with them all the time. Such a girl, everything is focused on younger siblings than her, does she really not care about her own future?

Zhan Xiaoyan slept until he woke up, concentrating, listening to the movement in the yard, but only heard movement in the kitchen, and Bai Junya's babbling voice, obviously because everyone hadn't gotten up yet. Last night's wine was a medicinal wine she brewed, which would make people drunk, but when she woke up, she would be more refreshed and her head would not hurt. But now it seems that because they drank a lot last night, they haven't woken up yet.

But also, the New Year is supposed to be a time of vacation, whether it is the boss who is busy that year, or the workers who take labor money to work, they must take advantage of the New Year, take a good rest for ten days, relax well, and have a good reunion with their families. It's also the only time of the year when you don't need to rush to do anything again, but you can really take a good rest! Not to mention just a lazy sleep, and there is nothing more.

Zhan Xiaoyan didn't get up, he went directly into the space, played with the two spirit beasts, and after playing for a while, he wrote a letter to his father and mother, put it in the box and put it away, and when he went back, he burned it in front of their graves, and began to write it on the way from the Northern Yan Kingdom to the Eastern Wei Kingdom, and now there are more than a dozen of them!

I believe that the two younger brothers have also written, this is the only way for them to miss their parents, after all, it is not just a smile painting, they have also painted portraits of their parents since last year, so that they can remember their appearance more clearly. When the little sister's eyes are restored, she will also start drawing, because for those who have left and will never be seen again, this is the only way to remember them all the time, and not to forget their appearance.

Everyone slept late this night, and they all woke up after noon, so Aunt Fu directly put breakfast and lunch together, and breakfast was a large plate of steamed buns and freshly ground soy milk. And she didn't take out all the buns, only half of them, because she made twenty, which is the amount of two for one person. The remaining ten are still in the steamer, because half of them are eaten at this time, and the other half is eaten in the evening or afternoon.

"Well, after lunch, we moved our desks to the garden, laid out paper, and wrote a few New Year's couplets on each of us. Anyway, the shops on the street are closed now, and at least after the fifth day of the new year, there will be no shops to open, so these days, we have to pass the time well, let's write couplets today! After lunch, Guan Lao proposed.

"Good! Uncle Fang, we lifted the desk to the leeward, then laid out the paper, pressed it with something, and then we each thought of the couplet and wrote it down. Yan Qihao was the first to agree, and was about to move the desk. Uncle Fang naturally didn't go right away, but subconsciously glanced at Zhan Xiaoyan, and saw her nodding, so he walked towards the study, so lively and lively! (To be continued.) )
