Chapter 148: The End of the Year

It's another New Year, and for people in troubled times, every New Year is something worth celebrating, because it means that they have spent another year safely. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info sounds sad, but in reality? That's how sad it is...... It's a troubled time when the average life expectancy is only 25 years old.

However, for Oda Yoshinobu, these things really have nothing to do with him. At this time, he was looking at Maeda Toshiya with a cheap smile...... A few boxes around me.

"Li family, you can come here, what else do you bring~ Why do we have to make all this false friendship?" Oda Yoshinobu said righteously. It seems that he is really a promising young man who values righteousness and ignores money.

"Cut, you bastard, don't hold on to the box when you say something like that!" Maeda Toshiya looked at Oda Yoshinobu helplessly and complained.

"Haha! Don't care about these details~" Oda Yoshinobu laughed, and then ordered someone to carry the box in, at that speed, as if he was afraid that Maeda Toshiya would regret it.

"By the way, why are you giving me something? I remember you're not very rich, huh? When the box completely disappeared in front of Maeda Toshiya's eyes, Oda Yoshinobu turned his head with a smile and asked.

"Isn't it too late to ask?" Maeda Toshiya complained again in his heart, and explained with some unhappiness, "These are not sent by me, they were sent by my father." ”

"Huh? Lord Lichang? Oda Yoshinobu looked at Maeda Toshiya suspiciously, he didn't remember that he and the old guy had a good relationship enough to give each other gifts.

"Yes, Ah Song is pregnant, so my father sent some gifts to show his heart." Maeda Toshiya said angrily.

"I see, this is really a bit unpleasant~" Oda Yoshinobu scratched his head and smiled, then winked at Maeda Toshiya and asked with a puzzled look, "What about you?" As Ah Song's brother, you are too embarrassed to send something? After saying that, Oda Yoshinobu also showed a look of disdain, as if Maeda Toshiya had done something angry and resentful.

"Huh? What do you say? I didn't understand it too much. When Maeda Toshiya heard this, he blinked, and his inexplicable look looked so realistic. Forget it, I'm going to Cheongju, do you kid want to go with me?. Maeda Toshiya said, and directly got up and left, without giving Oda Yoshinobu a chance to speak again.

"Damn, this stingy ghost!" Oda Yoshinobu muttered unhappily, but still responded, "Forget it, I still have some things, you go first." ”

"Oh, hurry up, then. You're the number one warrior in your family right now, and your every move is eye-catching. Toshiya Maeda nodded.

"Got it, long-winded!" Oda Yoshinobu muttered, but he also knew that Maeda Toshiya was for his good. As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and perhaps the attention of the retainers is only because of Oda Yoshinobu's high status, but if something happens, it will obviously attract a lot of attention. Although Oda Yoshinobu didn't care, he didn't want to cause trouble for Oda Nobunaga either.

After Maeda Toshiya left, Oda Yoshinobu went directly to Lilu Argot. Just a few days ago, this girl finally came back, otherwise Oda Yoshinobu would probably really send someone to find it, although if that is the case, I am afraid that he will not be able to find it.

When I came to Lilu Argot's room, before I entered the door, I heard a coquettish laughter, "Okay, it's all here." Oda Yoshinobu thought to himself, and then pushed the door open.

"Brother Overlord Maru?!"

"Ahh My lord, why did you just come in?! ”

As soon as he entered the door, Oda Yoshinobu saw a white flower, and this scene immediately caused tons of damage to Oda Yoshinobu. Unfortunately, he didn't wait for him to take a closer look, and was kicked out amid a burst of screams.

"Humph! It's not that I haven't seen it, why are you so exaggerated! Oda Yoshinobu stood outside the door and muttered unpleasantly. But then, he remembered the scene he had just seen. Well, the others don't have much to do, after all, they've seen it I don't know how many times. The point is that Yoshinobu Oda seems to have seen Lilu Argot.

"Damn! I didn't see it in such a short period of time! Oda Yoshinobu thought regretfully, well, the only thing he saw was the short blond hair, and ...... Gone!

After half a ring, the door was opened again, but unfortunately the scene of white flowers just now was long gone, because the maidens had already put on the kimonos used for the New Year.

"I thought you were doing, it turned out to be a change of clothes." Oda Yoshinobu muttered, and then saw the angry eyes of the women, and suddenly realized that there was a woman who was not his woman yet. Well, it seems a bit of a mouthful.

"Ahem~ That Lilu, you're very beautiful in this." Oda Yoshinobu coughed dryly twice and said with some embarrassment.

"Thank you, my lord......" Lilu Argot whispered with a blushing face. His eyes were flustered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Originally, Oda Yoshinobu wanted to discuss the matter of the merchant hall with Lilu Argot, but it was obviously not a good time. Helplessly, Oda Yoshinobu could only explain two sentences, and went directly to Cheongju City.

This year will be an important year in the entire history of the Oda family, because in this year, Oda Nobunaga defeated the powerful Imagawa family and made the Oda family completely enter the eyes of the world's heroes. From then on, the Oda family was no longer the disdainful rural name in the eyes of everyone.

Therefore, this time, all the retainers of the Oda family attended the annual meeting in full costume, and everyone had a confident and proud look on their faces. Perhaps after the Battle of Barrel Sasama, not only the status of the Oda family was changed, but also the hearts of the Oda family's retainers. This kind of mentality may not have any effect in the short term, but in the long run, it will make a qualitative leap in the abilities of these retainers. Especially after a war, you will not be worried about defeat when you see the other side's banner.

"Yoshinobu-sama, I recently got a secret recipe that is very good for pregnant women......

"Congratulations Yoshinobu-sama, I'm going to visit you recently......

Oda Yoshinobu slowly walked towards Oda Nobunaga's mansion, and along the way, countless guys who didn't know him greeted him one after another. However, Oda Yoshinobu only nodded indifferently at this, with a smile on the corner of his mouth that looked flawless. After so many years, Oda Yoshinobu has long since ceased to be so unsightly.

Well, he's not unpopular, but he used to think that there was nothing to do with a group of NPCs? But now, he has already fully integrated into this era.

All the way to the door, I saw Maeda Toshiya and Sasa Narumasa standing boredly at the door chatting. When they saw Oda Yoshinobu, they immediately greeted him.

"Righteous faith! I heard that kid from the Li family say, did you get Ah Shi and the crane pregnant? As soon as he came over, Sasa Narumasa showed a **** smile and asked Oda Yoshinobu in a low voice. Well, everyone has a heart that loves gossip, even Sasa Narumasa has completely become a sold-fashioned, serious samurai over the years.

Of course, this is also because the other party is Yoshinobu Oda. Although over the years they are no longer the same as before, almost every day will be together. But time has not made the brotherhood between them weaker, but stronger and stronger. After all, they are comrades who can turn their backs on the battlefield.

Hawkers,Ordinary people must be a little embarrassed in the face of this situation.,But who is Oda Yoshinobu? Not only was he not embarrassed, but he also took the opportunity to brag, what a night of Baijiro or something, I heard Maeda Toshiya and others send out their middle fingers again and again to express their disdain. They won't admit that they are inferior to Oda Yoshinobu in that aspect.

When they came to the house, Niwa Nagahide and they had already arrived.

"Yo, it's all here~ What, brother, are you going to take us to knock on the door of a widow's house?" As soon as Oda Yoshinobu opened his mouth, there was a burst of laughter. Everyone's face had a look of nostalgia, as if they had returned to that era of youth and ignorance.

There was a burst of laughter and scolding, and everyone kept chatting and farting, regardless of the situation, nothing about government affairs, just pulling eggs at will. Nowadays, they only have the opportunity to sit together and drink and chat, and they don't want to waste the opportunity to discuss those headaches.

An hour later, the annual meeting began, and Oda Nobunaga sat on the top with a smile on his face, and next to him, Lin Xiuzhen kept reading New Year's greetings. This is the traditional form, and there is one such a play every year. It's just that unlike previous years' cheers, although Lin Xiuzhen's handwritten greetings this year are still very good, it's a pity that everyone didn't listen to them at all, and they were even more anxious, and they showed it directly on their faces.

Well, this is slapping Lin Xiuzhen in the face! It's just strange that instead of getting angry about this situation, Lin Xiuzhen continued to read with a smile, hmm...... He also deliberately slowed down his tone.

"Haha! Lord Lin is also here to be funny, it seems that he is in a good mood today~" Shibata Katsuya saw this and was immediately happy.

"Hehe, no one seems to be in a bad mood today~" Oda Yoshinobu said with a chuckle. He naturally knew why everyone was in such a good mood, because every year during the Chinese New Year, rewards would be given to the retainers who had performed well throughout the year, some were promoted, and some were rewarded. Moreover, after Oda Nobunaga succeeded as the governor, he was never stingy with rewards, which naturally made the retainers look forward to it infinitely.

It's just a pity that today Lin Xiuzhen seems to be deliberate, a congratulatory speech is called a smelly and long, and after it is over, there are all kinds of testimonials, thanks and other nonsense. To be honest, if it weren't for Lin Xiuzhengui as the elder of the pen family, I am afraid she would have been booed a long time ago. Well, there is no habit of booing people in this era.

Finally, the congratulatory speech was finished, and in the expectant eyes of everyone, Lin Xiuzhen turned his head and saluted Oda Nobunaga, and then at his signal, he took out another scroll from his sleeve.

"Oda Yoshinobu, in the past year, has made countless contributions to the birth and death of his family! Promote the old family, and seal the territory with 1000 stones! Lin Xiuzhen read aloud.

In an instant, all eyes in the hall were focused, but Oda Yoshinobu didn't care at all. He said goodbye calmly, and then sat back down. As if he wasn't the one who was raptured to be the old man of the family.

But then again, everyone doesn't have any other thoughts about this matter, after all, Oda Yoshinobu has been promoted since he came out of the Oda family, especially after he became Oda Nobunaga's sister-in-law, becoming the elder of the family, which is completely expected.

After attending the annual banquet in Cheongju City, it was another annual meeting when I returned to Nakono. rewarded Maeda Keiji and them, and it was another meal to eat and drink.

"Lilu, how is it, are you still used to this time?" Yoshinobu Oda asked with a chuckle as he walked up to Lilu Argot with his glass.

"Thank you for your concern, life here is not bad~" Lilu Argot smiled. I don't know if it's because of the cheerful atmosphere around her, which makes her feel very good these days.

"That ......" Oda Yoshinobu hesitated for a moment, then stammered a little, "That...... Lilu...... I didn't mean to break in before...... Ahem! And I really didn't see anything. He felt the need to explain, after all, he was not the kind of person who took advantage of him and was not responsible. Of course, he would be happy if he was responsible.

"The subordinates understand, don't worry about the lord." It's a pity that Lilu Argot didn't give Oda Yoshinobu a chance at all, and blocked all the words behind Oda Yoshinobu in one sentence.

However, Oda Yoshinobu was not disappointed or anything, after all, he didn't think about taking Lilu all at once. "Well, then you have a good rest, tomorrow Ashi and they will go shopping in Tsushima Town, and you can go too~" Oda Yoshinobu didn't give Lilu Argot a chance to refuse, and after speaking, he left directly.

"Shopping?" Lilu Argot bowed her head and muttered to herself, then fell into deep thought.

The next day, Lilu Argot followed Ah Shi and them for a whole day, all kinds of shopping, shopping, and the luxurious life, Lilu Argot couldn't help but be speechless. Well, although she is the president of the Agotic Chamber of Commerce, she has also made a lot of money through sea trade before. But she has never done such a consumption.

Nakono, the residence where Fernánd Díaz and Emilio Filón lived.

"Lilu, how's it going? Have fun today? Fernand Díaz asked with a funny look as he looked at the large pile of bags that Lilu had brought back.

"Humph! These are all bought by Mrs. Ashi and their daughters! Lilu Argot didn't know why, and quibbled a little shyly.

"Haha~" Hearing this, Fernand Di Aston burst out laughing, and Emilio Filon, who was gnawing on the chicken leg on the side, glanced at this side strangely, and then fought against a pot of chicken legs on the table again.

"Huh, huh? Well...... That's not bad......" Fernand Diaz chuckled and muttered.

"What are you talking about?!" Lilu Argot looked at Fernande Dias with a puzzled expression, completely unable to understand what he meant.

"Hehe, it's nothing, don't care." Fernand Díaz said casually, with a smile on his face that made it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
