Zhang Jinwen did not sit quietly today, but was busy in the kitchen.

The first order of the New Year at Xinglin Pavilion is a family banquet for Lord Zhou.

All the dishes are prepared according to the necessary dishes for the Chinese New Year's Eve New Year dinner, and Zhang Jinyue prepared two additional desserts, and while she was preparing osmanthus sugar juice, she thought about the scene when Zhou Ziyu told her about ordering a family banquet.

Yesterday, it took a lot of effort for Zhang Jinwen to make it clear to Chen Yiling that Xinglinyuan only accepts patients and does not accept apprentices, but it can be additionally open to Chen Yiling and can watch the patient's treatment process.

Zhou Ziyu and Ma Qingfeng worked together to drag Chen Yiling into the carriage, went back to the study, looked at Zhang Jinwen, and exaggeratedly wiped the sweat on his head.

Zhang Jinwen made pine needle tea and served: "Thank you, Brother Yu, I will make delicious food tomorrow and make up for your strength." ”

"Jin'er, I want to thank you! In Xinglinyuan these days, my father's leg injury has healed," Zhou Ziyu's eyes smiled: "My relationship with my father has also become closer, I have never been with my father for so long, and what I said together before did not add up to these ten days." ”

The corners of Zhang Jin's eyes crooked: "Brother Yu, don't say thank you again!" I love seeing you get very close to Master Chow. ”

"Jin'er, my father wants to book a lunch at the Xinglin Pavilion before going back, is that okay?"

"Of course you can! Who does Lord Zhou want to invite? ”

"There are no outsiders, in fact, it is a family banquet, my father and mother, me, my second brother and little sister, and you."

Zhang Jinwen was a little happy, and had some expectations in her heart: "Since it's a family banquet, why are there still me?" ”

Zhou Ziyu's voice was as gentle as a feather: "Jin'er treats me as family, then, Jin'er is also my family!" ”

Zhang Jinwen's face was red, and her eyes were clear and pure: "Well, Brother Yu's family is also my family." ”

Thinking of Zhou Ziyu's smile, Zhang Jinwen even thought that if Brother Yu ate this osmanthus syrup, he would definitely be amazed, and couldn't help laughing.

Aunt Zhang saw it in her eyes and was happy in her heart. These days, what she is most happy to see is General Zhou and Jin'er talking and laughing together: "Jin'er, you hurry up and change your dress, Mrs. Zhou and they are about to arrive." ”

"Okay, Aunt Zhang, then I'll work hard for you!"

"Jin'er, wear that red satin jacket with a crimson hairpin." Aunt Zhang really has an inexhaustible heart, Jin'er is so smart, why can't she be open to General Zhou.

Zhang Jinwen returned to the room, changed into a red satin skirt, added a cardigan half-arm shirt outside, pulled an ingots top bun herself, picked a scarlet moire hairpin in the brocade box given to her by Brother Yu, and pressed a sapphire gold hairpin.

When she walked into the private room, Zhou Ziyu led Mrs. Zhou, Zhou Zimao and Zhou Ziyao to arrive.

Zhou Zhengyi was carried to the private room by Luo Qingluo Huai while sitting on a chair, and finally he didn't have to fix it on the bed anymore, as long as he tied the splint, it already made him want to fly briskly. At this moment, when I saw my wife and children walking in together, I couldn't help but laugh.

Zhou Ziyao pounced: "Father, you're back!" My daughter misses you! The tone is intimate and coquettish.

"Thank you, sir! Yaoyao, sit down, don't mess with your father. Mrs. Zhou walked unhurriedly to Zhou Zhengyi and sat down.

Zhou Zimao walked over to greet Zhou Zhengyi: "Father is well!" ”

Zhou Zhengyi looked at the two sons standing side by side, Ziyu looked like a literati when he stood with him, Ziyu and Zimao stood together, and it was obvious that Zimao was a little weaker again.

Zhang Jinwen stood by the door and looked at this harmonious family with envy.

Zhou Ziyu pointed to the position next to Zhou Ziyao and greeted her: "Jin'er, come here, sit!" ”

Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Zimao Zhou Ziyao all looked at Zhang Jinwen strangely, and then looked at Zhou Ziyu, I don't know what happened, on the way here, Zhou Ziyu had already said that this was a family banquet, and there would be no outsiders.

Zhang Jinwen walked up to salute everyone and greeted them one by one.

Zhou Ziyu explained to his mother: "Mother, when my son was learning Taoism in Zhongnan Mountain, he often followed Uncle Yuqing to learn martial arts, and Uncle Yuqing worshipped two masters. Therefore, Uncle Yuqing is not only his son's uncle, but also Jin'er's uncle, and Jin'er is also his son's younger sister. ”

Mrs. Zhou stared, not thinking about it, even if it was a junior brother and sister, it was not suitable to appear at a family banquet.

Zhou Zhengyi understood his wife's thoughts, and beckoned Zhang Jinwen to sit down first: "Jin'er, you sit down first." ”

"In the past few days, I haven't gone out, because I was afraid that you would worry, so I didn't say it." Zhou Zhengyi looked at his wife and patted his leg: "I live in Xinglin Garden, and Jin'er healed my injured leg." ”

"What!" Mrs. Zhou was taken aback, and was about to lift the hem of Zhou Zhengyi's robe.

Zhou Zimao and Zhou Ziyao also jumped up, and both ran to Zhou Zhengyi's side and squatted.

Zhou Zhengyi lifted the robe slightly, revealing the bulging cotton trouser legs: "There is a splint inside, it will take a few days to remove it, but the bones have already grown." ”

Mrs. Zhou took the lead in exclaiming regardless of the image, and Zhou Zimao and Zhou Ziyao jumped even more happily.

Zhou Zhengyi waited for a few of them to laugh enough before saying: "Jin'er is not only Ziyu's junior sister, but also my nephew, and now she is my benefactor, in short, speaking of which, Jin'er is not an outsider." ”

Zhou Ziyao rushed to Zhang Jin's side and sat down, and affectionately grabbed Zhang Jin'er's arm: "Jin'er, you are so amazing!" can cook, make tea, and even heal. ”

Zhang Jinwen is not used to people being so enthusiastic about her, but well, it is Brother Yu's sister, and it is still acceptable: "Wednesday lady, Jin'er will only do this, like those qin, chess, calligraphy and painting you know, Jin'er doesn't understand anything." ”

"Haha, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting!" Zhou Zimao slapped the table and laughed: "Three ladies, do you know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" ”

Zhou Ziyao waved his small fist at the second brother: "Second brother, you dare to ......" immediately looked at his father and pouted: "Father, you see that the second brother is making fun of me again!" ”

With Zhou Zimao and Zhou Ziyao present, talking and laughing, fighting and making trouble, Zhou Zhengyi and Mrs. Zhou did not stop them, one indulged his daughter and the other doted on his son, and what table manners and food were not spoken, as if they had nothing to do with them, and the whole family banquet was full of joy.

Zhang Jinwen looked at this lively scene, and then looked at Zhou Ziyu, and smiled.

When the main dishes were almost finished, Takekage brought two desserts.

Zhang Jinwen stood up, offered the osmanthus syrup rice balls to everyone, and then put a plate of brown sugar glutinous rice dumplings in the middle of the table.

Zhou Ziyao stretched out his chopsticks and sandwiched a glutinous rice dumpling, took a bite, the skin was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and the brown sugar juice was sweet but not greasy: "Wow, Jin'er, this glutinous rice cake is delicious, it's the same as the practice in my hometown, Han Siniang's cooking is not as delicious as this, big brother, right?" ”
