On the thirtieth night of the lunar month, there was another heavy snowfall in the sky, which was more than three inches, decorating the earth with a piece of silver and white, and the bright red couplets and window flowers on the doors and windows of each house were in harmony, which was particularly festive.

Zhou Weiji's family's New Year was also extraordinarily calm and joyful.

Because of the confinement, there is no need to participate in many sacrifices and ceremonies in the clan, and Lan Yi is very happy.

However, confinement is a lot of suffering. Because she was afraid of hurting her eyes, Jia and Zheng didn't allow her to read books and do needlework, because they were afraid of hurting Zhongqi, they didn't talk much, and the children couldn't hug them more, not to mention the food that made Lan Yi jaw-dropping and the smell left behind because she couldn't freshen up. So, Lan Yi crossed her fingers every day and counted how many days there were before she could get out of confinement, take a bath, and go out.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the melon is full moon. Although the husband and wife did not mean to make a big deal, the people who came also stood in the big courtyard of the house, which was very lively.

Lan Yi was dressed neatly and welcomed batches of visitors in the house.

Needless to say, the civil and military officials of Huang County, no matter how big or small, came to congratulate them with their families.

Although the people in the village don't know, how can the people in the officialdom of Huang County not know that Zhou Weiji is now the highest in Huang County! Even, the commanders of the Xiang army in Zixian, Jixian and other places also sent people to send generous gifts to show their friendship. Because of the commander of the Xiang Army, the official rank of the ninth grade, and the number of subordinates is only a few hundred, Zhou Weiji's appointment letter has arrived in Huang County, and the commander of the four-rank forbidden army, a few shiny big characters are enough to make them bend down.

When these official wives arrived, the women of the village all shrank back, their eyes filled with fear, incomprehension, and envy. Lan Yi would not ignore their feelings, and asked Jia and Zhou Weipeng's daughter-in-law Yang to help entertain them; These official wives, whom she didn't know much, were taken care of by Liu Guogen's wife, Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Shi, the wife of Zhao Bin, the commander of the Huangxian Xiang Army. Lan Yi was only responsible for sitting in the middle, smiling and listening to the ladies in an extremely familiar tone, expressing concern and praise, of course, in a sound of praise, there were a few pinching sour grapes.

"Mrs. Zhou, why didn't you see your mother's family coming? On such a happy day, it is right for the mother's family to sing the leading role. ”

Zheng, who was holding Gua'er, lowered her head, and also had an indelible inferiority complex in her heart, she and her husband were just slaves who sold themselves. Lan Yi smiled at this lady who was dressed in fine brocade, wearing a golden hairpin, and looked mean, and explained, "My mother's home is far away in Meixian, and now the road is closed by heavy snow, and it is not easy to come by now. ”

Mrs. Shi hurriedly played a round game, "That's it, that is, Gua'er's grandmother has been here for a few months, and it is a great blessing to have her mother by her side to take care of her." ”

Mrs. Liu also glanced at the lady who wrote the clerk in the county, and her smile was displeased, "Sister Shi is right, such a blessing, I look at it with red eyes." ”

Mrs. Mean was sneering, but at this mention, the people around her opened the conversation box and asked about Lan Yi's family affairs.

"Since Mrs. Zhou has no relatives and no reason in Huang County, how can she travel thousands of miles and marry here?" Someone else asked curiously.

"Really unrelated and unprovoked? Tao'er is here, isn't there still this aunt? Xia Wan's mother-in-law, Mrs. Qin, walked in with her daughter's help, followed by her daughter-in-law Zhang, who was holding her little daughter, and looked at Lan Yi and Zheng with a smile on her face, "Sister, I'm late, you are not allowed to pick on my li'er." ”

The Zheng family had met Mrs. Qin a few times, and they knew her, but they were familiar with Dao. Knowing that Mrs. Qin was making a face for her daughter, the Zheng family would not fall into a posture, stepped forward to hold hands with Mrs. Qin, her eyes were full of smiles, and then, her eyes fell on Xia Wan and Lan Yi, "When did Wan'er return?" ”

Lan Yi was pleasantly surprised to hug Xia Wan at this time, Xia Wan wiped the excited tears from the corners of her eyes, and gave Zheng a salute, "I just arrived this morning, and my mother and sister-in-law were waiting for me, so I delayed." ”

Most of the people present at Mrs. Qin, the richest businessman in Huang County, knew that her daughter was married well, and then looked at this appearance, she was even more first-class, and couldn't help but envy it, envy Xia Wan for being so young and beautiful, so she became the lady of Zhixian County, and was surprised that Lan Yi had such a good relationship with her.

You must know that today is only the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and if you rush back from Huang County, you will have to travel at least ten days ago. At that time, it hadn't broken five yet.

Lan Yi took Xia Wan to meet Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Shi, and before she could say a few thoughtful words, she saw Zhou Weiji leading a jade-faced young general in a battle robe in. Slightly surprised, she stood up and greeted her.

"Cousin, why are you here?"

The young general, Gao Jian, looked at Lan Yi with a smile and gentleness, "The melon is full of moon, how can I not come?" Seeing that the fourth sister's face was ruddy, her aunt and several brothers should also be relieved. What about the melon, bring it to your cousin to take a look? ”

Ruhua hugged Gu'er and approached, Gao Jian took a serious look, and then laughed, "Sure enough, he looks like his brother-in-law, and he will be another tiger general in my senior year in the future!" ”

Zhou Wei, who has always been serious, put on a rare smug smile, "My son, how can you be weak!" ”

Everyone in the room looked at the young general with red faces and heartbeats, and asked him in a low voice. Shi Shi, who had seen Gao Jian at Lan Yi's wedding banquet, explained in a low voice, "This is the only son of the old general Gao of Shamen Island, General Gao Xiao. ”

When the ladies heard this, their eyes were full of shock.

Before they could regain their smiles, they reported outside the door that the distinguished guests had arrived.

Zhou Weiji turned around, his eyes shining, and walked out quickly.

Outside the door were a few friends from his army. Holding a Luan Yuan, which was not a few points less handsome than Gao Jian, laughed and punched Zhou Weiji's chest, "Sister-in-law, what about my nephew, don't hide it, please come out and give us all long eyes!" ”

Although Lan Yi didn't know these people, she knew their identities by looking at their beards and Li Jingang in the crowd. Gao Jian whispered in her ear, "The fourth sister of General Li Jingang naturally recognizes that the little white-faced man is called Luan Yuan, and the tall black man next to him is called Rushing ,......."

Lan Yi has heard Zhou Weiji say these names, and when dealing with unfamiliar faces, she has added a sense of familiarity. When Zhou Weiji turned around and looked at her, Lan Yi naturally raised her feet and was about to go out, but Zhou Weiji stepped forward quickly and stopped her in the door.

"It's cool, don't come out, just stand here."

As he spoke, he turned to a group of rough men behind him and said loudly, "My daughter-in-law, Wang Lanyi." ”

Lan Yi saluted and stood beside Zhou Weiji with a gentle and kind smile, "You can come to participate in the children's full moon ceremony, my husband and wife, it is an honor." ”

The rough men from this group of soldiers, except for Li Jingang, all opened their mouths and dropped their jaws in shock, and their eyes widened and they looked at Lan Yi in disbelief.
