Chapter 82: The Thirty Years of the Chinese New Year's Eve
Autumn in Balasagon is always short. Li Chengji hasn't enjoyed enough of the coolness of autumn, and winter is coming unexpectedly. The whole world is also completely white. Coupled with the bleak north wind, it simply makes people doubt life.
The construction of Jiao'an Fang also had to be stopped. The city of Balasagon is more like hibernation. In the daytime, there is no figure in sight.
Li Chengji, who has nothing to do at home, shovels the snow in the yard with Li Dayi and others every morning. Then I boxed on my own, did push-ups, and practiced for half an hour.
When you're sweating profusely, go back inside and take a comfortable hot bath.
It's just that Zhu Qing served too diligently, so that Li Chengji always blushed.
So it's the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve! Even though it was February, Balasagon was still bitterly cold. It's just that any chill can't stop the breath of the year.
Many Han and Khitan people posted Spring Festival couplets in front of the door. People from poor families will also try their best to buy a few feet of cloth to make clothes. An atmosphere of joy pervaded, diluting a slight chill.
Even those Huihe and Persians who are not old enough are more or less affected.
Li Mansion is also on this day, with colorful lights and a lively New Year.
Due to the demotion of Mahmutebai, Li Shichang was very unhappy. asked Li Xiao to add more silver taels to the subordinates in the house when he distributed the money. At the request of Li Chengji, he distributed some ordinary things such as food and clothing.
This made the people in the house grateful.
Li Chengji was also rewarded with a large sum of money by his father for the New Year. Although he is not short of money, if Li Shichang wants to give it, he will not refuse.
After all, there is no reason to push money out!
In the evening, the family sat together and had a reunion dinner.
It's just that because of Li Xiao's family, Li Shichang only accepted one concubine. That is, Li Chengye's own mother! It was a romantic debt committed by Li Shichang outside, and he didn't want to admit it. It is still Li Xiao's general knowledge, which allows people to check the authenticity and test relatives with blood.
This gave Li Chengye a name.
But his own mother is not blessed! Before Li Xiao could welcome him into the Li Mansion, he had no choice but to die of illness due to the wind and cold.
made Li Chengye, since he was one year old, he was raised by Li Xiao's side. The relationship is also quite close.
Now at the dinner table, there are only five people: Li Chengye, Li Chengji, Li Shichang, Li Xiaoshi and Xiao Chongde. It's not lively, but it's fun.
Because of the last time he was implicated in vain, Li Chengye was promoted by the emperor. Although he is a little-known little commander, in front of the emperor, there are more opportunities to show his face.
Counted, the benefits are quite significant.
This time, he was allowed by the emperor to go home for reunion, which is another manifestation of grace.
After three rounds of drinking, Li Xiao said with a smile. I have been pregnant with a child for more than a month.
Hearing this, Li Shichang was very happy. The indifference that I usually deliberately maintain has disappeared all at once. I still murmured, I hope it's a daughter.
Li Chengji listened and was also very happy. Because he was once an only child, he would love to have a brother or sister. So Li Xiao can give him a sister, which is unwanted.
is so happy, Li Shichang can't help but be a little greedy. So that in the end he drank high, laughed and laughed, and behaved like a child.
This made Li Chengji a big surprise.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Chong'a and others also invited Li Chengji to go to Yipinju and Yixu. Taking this opportunity, Li Chengji saw the fourth brother he had never met.
"Hahaha... Third brother. After two years, the fourth brother misses it tightly! Xiao Alihe and Li Chengji came to a bear hug and said very happily. Before he went to Hezhong Mansion with his father, he had been living in the mansion next to the Li Mansion. So when he was young, he had a good relationship with Li Chengji.
This time he returned to Beijing with his father to report on his work, so he hurriedly seized the opportunity to catch up with Li Chengji and others.
Feeling his enthusiasm, Lee Seungji also had to show enough joy. When he came, his little face, which was stiffened by the cold wind, also squeezed out a few smiles.
This made Xiao Alihe even more happy.
In terms of age, Xiao Alihe and Li Chengji are similar. It's just that Li Chengji was born in September, and Xiao Alihe was born in October, ten days and half a month late. Now it's tall, and it's generally tall.
However, in terms of dress, the two are obviously different. Li Chengji is Han well-dressed and has long hair. And Xiao Ali left, leaving only a circle of long hair around the top of his head. The rest of the place is all smooth. It's a bit like the 'Mediterranean' hairstyle of a middle-aged man after baldness.
In terms of physiognomy, thick eyebrows and big eyes, it is very spiritual. But those bright eyes revealed a shrewdness. In terms of temperament, although it is similar to the brute strength of the expansion of the bass. But faintly, it shows a bit of cleverness.
Li Chengji and Xiao Alihe talked privately for a while!
After confirming that he really had lost his soul, he forgot everything about the past. Xiao Alihe was a long sigh. It was still the help of Chong'a and others to persuade him, which made his mood feel a lot more relaxed.
After that, everyone ate and drank, so lively.
Because it coincided with the end of the year, Xiao Alihe finally returned to Balasagon again. So Li Chengji, who was half-pushed and half-done, drank a lot of wine. and Mladili and others were exiled to Darincur. There are fewer opponents, and the nature of the crowd is higher.
In the end, in the realm of Balasagon in the end, they could have walked sideways. That experience is not ordinary sour and refreshing.
Under the young man's heart, everyone was completely open to drink.
Even if the alcohol content in this era is not high, Li Chengji is a little dizzy.
By the end of the drink, my head was completely blank. I can't even remember how I got back.
When I woke up the next day, my head was a little swollen and painful. Li Xiao came to visit him and gave him a good lecture.
Li Chengji was used to being trained, and now that he listens to it, he doesn't feel anything. The left ear goes in, and the right ear goes out. kept saying that he knew he was wrong, and as soon as Li Xiao left, he completely forgot what he said.
It wasn't long before Li Shichang, who got the news, also came to reprimand him. said that Li Xiao was pregnant and couldn't be angry. If Li Xiao's anger is provoked again, Li Chengji will be grounded for ten months.
It wasn't until Li Xiao gave birth to a child that he could go out to play.
These threatening words really scared Li Chengji. Even if it should be, it was a good meal.
After Li Shichang left with a calm face, Li Chengji secretly touched the sweat on his forehead. In my heart, I realized that the world is big, and the greatest profound meaning of pregnant women.
