Chapter 72: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner

Lan Yue was a little ashamed, he couldn't answer Nangong's question at all. Last time, although he was responsible for escorting disaster relief food, he looked at the map and studied the route and other things were all done by Tian Qi and others below, and he just followed them.

He suddenly felt that he was really useless, like waste.

Nangong looked sideways at Lan Yue's face, what else did she not understand?

He turned to the other people, and one of the forbidden soldiers replied, "This river should be a tributary of the Luo River." ”

Luohe?

The lower reaches of the Luo River are the Eastern Wo Kingdom.

It seems that the discovery of this place is better to report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, although Lan Xing does not care about the affairs of the government, but the big event must be known after all.

The people walked along the riverbank, but found nothing but the occasional little blood on the dead grass. On the river, there were no traces of boats and people passing by at all.

Nangong and Lan Yue stood on the bank, staring at the river slowly heading east, and couldn't help but be a little unsure whether their suspicions just now were right.

--------------

Today is the thirtieth anniversary of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and people come and go in the imperial capital, just because today is the last day of the year. People who did not purchase New Year's goods came out to prepare for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening. On the street, there are lanterns and lanterns, selling New Year's goods, calligraphy and paintings, and all kinds of snacks..... People shopping with large bags and small bags, women strolling around with their children, and ladies in horse-drawn carriages.......

In front of the neon clothes storehouse, stood the veiled Ye Luoli and Yun Die.

The opening dresses of a few people in the inn have been ready, and Yundie asked a few embroidery girls to go back early for the New Year.

The two closed the door of the neon clothes storehouse, stood side by side under the eaves and looked at the bustling street, looked at each other, and couldn't help but sigh, time is like an arrow!

Today is the first year they've been through, well, what's the best thing to eat?

"Luo Li, let's eat hot pot, right?"

Yun Die looked at Ye Luoli, who was a little shorter than herself, and said with a smile.

"Okay!"

The two who reached an agreement took a carriage back to the inn of no return from the dark passage, but as soon as they entered the courtyard, they found that the inn was extremely deserted, and there was no one in the inn.

"Worry-free! Hongling! ”

Cloud Butterfly shouted.

"Linglong, Erniang!"

Ye Luoli also shouted at the top of her voice.

But no one answered them.

"Huh, what about people?"

The two glanced at each other, and both saw the doubts in each other's eyes.

They searched next to each other for people, but they didn't find anyone.

Until......

"What are you doing here in a row?"

When Yun Die and Ye Luoli found the door of Erniang's room next to each other, they saw that Erniang's door was closed, but on the threshold of her room door, there were carefree little meows, red rhombus pear blossoms and Linglong sitting at one time. Erniang is nowhere to be seen.

Everyone sitting at the door looked up together, and saw that it was Yun Die and Ye Luoli, and they lowered their heads weakly in sync.

"Yo, what are you doing..... Was trained by Erniang? ”

Ye Luoli couldn't help but laugh playfully.

"Ah~~"

"Ah~~"

Everyone looked up together, sighed, and put their chins on their hands again, their eyes gloomy.

"What the hell is wrong with you? What about Erniang? ”

"喏~~~"

Everyone pointed to the door.

Still, no one wants to say more.

"What the hell are you doing here? No one spoke, let's go! ”

Yundie couldn't help but be angry, is this playing 123 wooden people for the New Year?

Seeing that no one spoke, Yun Die grabbed Ye Luoli's arm and said angrily, "Luoli, let's go, let's make our own hot pot to eat, too lazy to bother with them!" ”

"Okay."

Ye Luoli nodded obediently.

When the two of them turned around and were about to leave, several heads stretched out behind them, "Hot pot?" What is hot pot? We're going to eat too. ”

Before Yun Die could speak, the door of the room behind her was opened, and Erniang also stuck out her head, "And me!" ”

Two hours later....

"I'm going to eat this!"

It's Hongling's voice.

"I want to eat fish! And mushrooms! ”

Carefree's voice became a little sharp, and she almost fought with Hongling with her chopsticks.

"It's all there, and there's a lot more in the kitchen, don't fight!"

Yun Die walked out of the kitchen, holding a large basin in her hand, which was filled with yellow peppers that had been disemboweled.

In the large courtyard of the inn of no return, there are two large round tables, one of which has a hole in the middle, on which is a pot that is not very large, under the table, a large pot of charcoal is burning, and the pot on the table is boiling hot pot.

Everyone sat around the table, everyone put a beautiful wine glass next to them, Erniang filled everyone with the best daughter red, for a while, the aroma of wine, hot pot fragrance mixed together, is a strong New Year's flavor.

On the other table, there are all kinds of meat and vegetarian dishes they have tonight, fresh beef mixed with chili noodles, as well as pork ribs, fish, shrimp....... In addition, the colorful fresh seasonal vegetables are washed and placed on a large plate on the side.

"Wow, it's delicious! Fluttershy, how did you come up with the idea to eat like this? ”

Hongling asked inarticulate while chewing the beef in her mouth, her already healthy and ruddy skin became even more red because of the spicy and charcoal fire, and she completely lost her usual chivalrous appearance, and she was completely a foodie at the moment.

"That's it, it's really appetizing for everyone to eat together like this, and the atmosphere is good."

Pear blossom nodded while eating, and her fair skin was dyed with a layer of red, which made her look even more delicate and cute.

"Drink less, drink too much and have an upset stomach." 67

Xiao Meow wanted to stop Carefree who was holding the wine glass, but was glared at by Carefree fiercely, so he had to retract his hand and look at her worriedly.

"Do you like to eat like this?"

Yun Die asked with a grin.

"I like it!"

They are all mixed up in the rivers and lakes, and they are not confined to small sections at all, and this atmosphere makes them feel a sense of belonging.

"Here, cheers! Happy New Year to all! ”

Ye Luoli took the lead in holding the wine glass and said excitedly.

She went back to accompany Ye Wutian and Shen Menglan yesterday, and today she still wanted to spend time with Yun Die, so she came out after finding a reason and getting Ye Wutian's consent.

"Happy New Year! Cheers! ”

Everyone raised their glasses, and the cheerful voice resounded throughout the inn of no return.

Gong Xiaoxiao sat on the eaves of the second floor, frowning and covering her ears vigorously.

It's disgusting!

She'd been sitting here for a while, and the people at the table below hadn't been able to spot her.

Gong Xiaoxiao, who was in a very unhappy mood, took out a handful of things from her arms, waved her hand, and the sound of the "whirring" wind passed, and the lights in the yard were all extinguished in an instant, and the lively crowd below was suddenly silent.

"Who?"

With a loud shout, the surrounding lights turned on again in an instant, and then everyone looked at the table and dropped their jaws in shock.

Just now, because of the sudden extinguishment of the light, everyone reflexively left their seats at once, and at this moment the lights turned on again, and at the dining table, which should have been empty, sat a petite body in a black night coat with his head buried in his head and didn't know whose chopsticks he was holding.

Gong Xiaoxiao!! That's my chopsticks!! ”

The air was quiet for a second, and the sound of a lion's roar from the east of the Hongling River came, much louder than the sound of everyone raising their glasses to celebrate just now, and there was a feeling that it could tear down the roof.

The woman in black in front of the table raised her head from the firelight, but her delicate face was cold, only to see that she reached out and plucked her ear with her little finger, her brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked like a matter of course, "Oh, uncle, I'm sorry, your name is not written on these chopsticks!" ”

"Division... Teacher? ”

The most shocking thing is Yun Die and Ye Luoli, dare to love are old acquaintances?

For Yun Die's consternation, Gong Xiaoxiao raised her head with an innocent expression, "I said you are my senior sister, you still don't believe it?" Now it's time to believe it, right? ”

"Uh~~"

Yun Die was stunned, what kind of master and apprentice are she and Hongling? To be honest, she can only be two meters above the ground by now, and when she learns that she can fly the eaves and walk the wall, it will be almost the same as Master Hongling.

At most, he and Hongling are friends, how can they really become masters in Gong Xiaoxiao's eyes?

"She's not my master."

Yundie explained.

"She's your uncle."

Gong Xiaoxiao replied seriously.

"Huh? Isn't it Master? Why did you become an uncle again? ”

Ye Luoli, who didn't know why, also spoke in surprise.

"You ...... I don't bother to explain, but you'll find out when I see Master later. ”

Gong Xiaoxiao looked at the people with different expressions around her, full of puzzlement, seeing that no one said anything, she waved her hand and turned around to sit down again, picked up the chopsticks and began to scoop the vegetables in the pot, muttering in her mouth,

"I've been watching you eat and no one calls me, I'm so hungry, I won't wait for you!"

As she spoke, a large piece of fragrant beef entered her little mouth.

"Eh, no matter, let's start first."

"That's it, if you don't eat again, let that little girl finish eating, hurry up!"

Wuwu and Erniang took the lead in walking back to their seats, and Hongling pulled a chair again and sat down next to Gong Xiaoxiao, and after eating a few pieces of meat, she kept staring at Gong Xiaoxiao, and forgot to chew the meat in her mouth.

Gong Xiaoxiao, who realized it later, raised her head and glanced at her, "Uncle Shi, what are you looking at me for?" What, I have flowers on my face? ”

After saying that, he lowered his head and continued to eat and drink.

"Why are you here, little girl? Also wearing a night outfit? To be a thief or to kill someone? ”

Hongling's voice was full of confusion and incomprehension.

"Killing, are you afraid? I also gave your name. ”

Gong Xiaoxiao said extremely seriously, Hongling stared straight into her eyes, only to see her clear eyes flashing one by one, and she couldn't tell the truth or falsehood. At least, Yun Die and Ye Luoli couldn't tell the difference.

"You dead girl, and you are joking with your uncle, see if I don't break your legs?"

Hongling stared at her eyes for a long time, and quickly picked up the chopsticks on the table and was about to knock them on her head, the next second, a black shadow flashed, and Gong Xiaoxiao appeared next to Yun Die, shouting,

"Senior sister testified, senior uncle, she bullied me again!"

"......" Yun Die's forehead dripped three black lines, which was looking for protection

Here comes the umbrella?

"Dare to sue?"

Hongling got up, and another gust of wind blew, but there was no one around Yundie.

Yun Die and Ye Luoli, two modern people, have to be speechless, how fast are they?

On the other hand, other people lowered their heads and quickly sandwiched the dishes in the pot as if nothing happened, and there was one more person, so why not eat at this time?

"Uncle Shi, if you chase me after me again, the dishes in the pot are about to be eaten, are you sure you are full?"

Gong Xiaoxiao, who was a little tired from running around the table, reminded loudly.

Special meow, I was already hungry, and I just ate a few pieces of meat and then I ate it for nothing.

This uncle's temper is still not very good!

As soon as everyone heard this, the speed in their hands sped up a lot, there were many people and few dishes, so it was not good if it was not fast!

"Gong Xiaoxiao, you dead girl, you wait for me!"

Hongling looked at the table, everyone was working hard, and there were only some vegetarian dishes left on the table where the dishes were placed.
