"What about them?"

After eating halfway, Li Tong asked.

She glanced out of the door just now, but she didn't see Biyu and Biyang, it seemed that the familiar aura that had surrounded her was gone, and Chiyi and Lian Rui also went out.

In this courtyard, it seems that there are only her and Bai Liye.

"I let them go to rest, and they were tired all the way." Bai Li Ye explained, and served Li Tong another bowl of porridge.

I didn't eat well on the road, Li Tong's stomach has not been very comfortable, so I have eaten very little, now that he is stable, he has slept again, Li Tong feels very hungry, and he eats three bowls of porridge in a row before stopping.

Li Tong nodded in understanding.

The soldiers transporting the supplies only need to ride their horses and follow them, but Biyu they are guards, in addition to following, they also have to concentrate on the various dangers that may rush out at any time and anywhere around them, and they have to take turns to keep vigil at night, even if they don't keep vigil, they don't dare to sleep too soundly.

Mental and physical strength is twice as tired, and being able to hold on to Hanyang is already very out of reach.

Li Tong said in a low voice: "They are really powerful. ”

Bai Liye smiled and didn't say anything.

How can people like them do it if they are not powerful?

If you don't work hard, you'll die.

Not only will you die, but you will also die with the people around you.

"Do you want to go out and walk around after eating for a while?" Bai Li Ye asked.

"Yes."

The snow in Hanyang was much heavier than in other places, but the sun was so strong that some of the snow swept to the side of the road turned into water and slowly flowed down the base of the wall, merging into a filthy stream.

Ye Mei governed Hanyang very well, in addition to relying on the imperial court for the winter, the people did not close their doors at night, and the road was not forgotten.

Hearing that Baili Ye was coming, the people of Hanyang went out of their homes regardless of the cold, just to see the general's demeanor, but unfortunately Bai Li Ye and they came too quickly, and when they entered the city, they couldn't see it.

At this time, Bai Li Ye took Li Tong to the street, and the people who recognized them roared, and then Li Tong widened his eyes and watched the doors and windows that were originally closed open one by one, and excited faces poked out from them, men, women, old people, children, all with light in their eyes.

In this place far from the center of power, Bai Li Ye is still a hero in their hearts.

Some people rushed up and stuffed two hot things into Li Tong's hands, Li Tong almost fell to the ground unexpectedly, and after a closer look, he found that they were two roasted sweet potatoes, and the cracked part emitted white smoke, revealing the golden sweet potato flesh inside, and the fragrance was tempting the taste buds.

Although he had just eaten, Li Tong was still hungry.

"Thank you, fellow!" Li Tong didn't twist at all, and handed one to Bai Liye.

However, there are one and there are two, after receiving the roasted sweet potatoes, Li Tong received gifts from the people who rushed out from all corners, and all of them were cooked food, some of which seemed to have just come out of the pot, and they were so hot that Li Tong couldn't hold them, so they all threw them to Baili Ye.

Anyway, he has rough skin and thick meat, and he is not afraid of being hot.

The original intention was to go shopping, but I didn't spend a penny, and I ate all the specialties here in Hanyang, Li Tong liked this place more, the folk customs were simple, and the simplicity was not good.

When they returned to the palace, they were both full.

"We're going to have to spend the New Year here, right?" Li Tong hugged Bai Li Ye's arm, and his mind moved slightly.

It took them a month and a half to set off from Yicheng to Hanyang, which was relatively fast in the eyes of others, and it took two months when other officials sent supplies in the past.

Now I am rushing back, and I am sure to celebrate the New Year on the road.

Too tired, unnecessary.

For Bai Liye, it is not a very important thing whether he will go back for the New Year, there is no one he is nostalgic for there, and the person he is nostalgic for is by his side at this time.

If Li Tong was still in Yicheng, he would have considered whether to rush back to accompany her first.

But now, obviously, no.

"Then let's celebrate the New Year here, everyone is here anyway."

Li Tong nodded, and his interest rose, since he decided to spend the New Year here, he had to buy some things for the New Year, and he couldn't be deserted. The place where they live now is arranged by Ye Mei, a small house, which is nothing in Yicheng, but in Hanyang, it is only the rich and noble who can afford to live.

Biyu and the others came after resting enough, and when they heard that they were going to spend the New Year here, they were very happy.

They had never spent the New Year outside of Yicheng, which felt very novel.

Li Tong pulled the red clothes and Biyang and went out again, planning to buy some firecrackers and come back, when the time came, they lit it and threw it outside the door, it was lively and lively, and they had to buy some window flowers and lanterns or something, although they couldn't live here for long, but they also had to be well arranged.

Bai Li Ye wrote a letter and sent it back to Yicheng, informing the emperor that they planned to celebrate the New Year in Hanyang, and then they didn't care anymore and ran around with Li Tong Manhanyang.

After Ye Mei heard about it, he was so happy that he almost filled the city with a notice.

After Baili Ye said to keep a low profile, Ye Mei didn't do it very obediently, but when he was eating with his family, he said that he leaked his mouth, and then, one spread ten to hundred, and the whole Hanyang still knew about it the next day.

Baili Ye's macho man was speechless.

But the matter has come to this, and he can only go with him.

Then, the people sent gifts to the house where they lived, even if it was just standing at the door and looking at the general and the general's wife, as if they could live for ten more years with a glance, Bai Li Ye didn't understand this kind of behavior anyway, but Li Tong could understand the excitement of the people.

Chasing stars, that's right.

If she could see her idol up close, it would probably be even crazier than these people, but she couldn't say this to Bai Li Ye, if she let him know, Li Tong might not even be able to sleep.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Tong personally cooked, red clothes started, Biyang was responsible for chopping wood for fire, Biyu and Lian Rui, one serving vegetables, one chopping meat, Baili Ye was only responsible for eating and ushering in the delivery.

Originally, Ye Mei wanted to have a big feast, but Bai Li Ye refused.

In the past, the Chinese New Year was in the palace, there were a lot of people, it looked very lively, in fact, only he knew that it was particularly lonely, those who looked at the exquisite meals were served up and didn't eat a few bites and it was cold, the colors were gorgeous, but it was bland and tasteless, even the emperor didn't like to eat, and the old queen mother didn't touch it, and after sitting down for a while, she excused herself to go back to the palace to eat a small stove.

As for him, he had to face the ministers who came up from time to time, and then drank a stomach full of wine, and finally was helped back to his house by Biyu, lying on a cold bed, not even a warm heart.

During the time at the border, everyone regarded today as their last day, and naturally there would be no New Year.

Bai Li Ye looked at the maids and servants who were busy going in and out with a smile on their faces, this was an experience that he had never had in the past few years, and he felt very new for the first time.

The people in Hanyang City who had a little status knew that Baili Ye didn't like outsiders to disturb him, so he only sent a New Year's gift and said his blessings, and he had to leave an impression in front of the general no matter what.

Biyu passed by Bai Li Ye with the dishes, and shouted with a smile: "General, take a seat, Madam said that you will be able to eat soon." ”

"Okay."

Baili Ye responded, turned his head and went to the kitchen.

It was cold outside, there was still light snow, and it was very hot in the kitchen, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on Li Tong's forehead.

She cooked a lot of dishes, and it was clear that she didn't just eat with Bai Liye.

Bai Li Ye didn't say anything, Biyu and they have followed him for many years, and it is no longer just a simple master-servant relationship, but it is enough to talk about the brotherhood of life.

As for Biyang, the little poor guy who picked up halfway followed Li Tong all day long, Bai Liye sometimes looked jealous, but thinking that this person's kung fu might be above Biyu, as long as he could protect Li Tong, he could bear this bit of vinegar.

Bai Li Ye didn't enter the kitchen, he just stood outside and watched quietly, the corners of his lips didn't even notice a big arc, as if as long as he could look at Li Tong's back like that, he would be satisfied.

When Biyu came back, he saw his general there like a wooden stake, and he was smiling like a fool.

"General, why are you standing here?"

Li Tong was stirring up hot, and when he heard Biyu's voice, he took the time to turn around and said with a smile: "It's cold outside, come in, it's warm inside." ”

"What to do?"

"Spicy chicken."

In winter, eat something spicy to make people comfortable.

Li Tong also asked Lian Rui to cut more meat and vegetables, and asked Chiyi to prepare a copper pot, it would be a pity not to eat hot pot in such a snowy weather.

Ah, a little more wine!

Life is nothing more than that.

Chinese New Year's Eve vigil, a few people eat slowly, just wine, talking, the north and the south, funny and not funny, can nag up, Biyang does not talk or drink, but has a soft spot for the hot pot, the meat and vegetables are gone, he goes to the kitchen himself to get it and then brings it, quietly eating while listening to them.

Bai Li Ye actually didn't drink too much wine, and in his ear was Li Tong pinching his hand in red clothes and saying to show her palmistry, but his attention was on Bi Yang a little.

He still didn't trust this man very much.

The identity is a mystery and a hidden danger.

Lian Rui didn't join in the fun, holding the collar of Biyu, who was already drunk, with one hand, lest he slip to the ground, and holding chopsticks in the other hand to eat peanuts for a while.

When Ye Mei came to invite them to watch the fireworks, Biyu had already woken up from sleep, and when she heard that she was going to watch the fireworks, she was half awake from the wine, and ran out with Lian Rui in her arms.

The fireworks in Hanyang are not as magnificent and beautiful as Yicheng, and there are not many colors, they explode one by one in the night sky, but they have a different taste, Baili Ye thought about it for a long time, probably because the people who accompanied him this year were not those with ill intentions, right?

Li Tong leaned on Bai Li Ye's arms, tilted his head, and the shadow of fireworks was in his misty eyes.

They stood in the best position, and Chiyi took Biyang to the crowd very interestingly, leaving Baili Ye and Li Tong alone.

"It's great, hopefully we can watch fireworks like this together next year." Baili Ye hugged Li Tong's waist and said softly.

Li Tong smiled softly: "You are wrong, it's not next year, it's every year." ”

Bai Li Ye lowered his head and affectionately caught Li Tong into his eyes: "Okay." ”

Li Tong raised his neck and touched the corner of Bai Li Ye's mouth, a huge firework exploded above their heads, Li Tong opened his mouth, Bai Li Ye tilted his head, and didn't hear what she said.
