Liu Xueer was surrounded by a group of women in the house, and when she finally came out, she looked like a lady with a phoenix crown.

Liu Xueer was originally a slightly chubby type, and she really could hold down this dress, looking dignified and virtuous, full of blessings.

Zhang Yunqing sighed secretly, this is the style of a wife! An Qingyue accompanied Liu Xue'er into the palace to salute, and everyone in the Xiao Mansion was busy with their own lights, and it was very lively.

Xiao Feng called Yu Dayou to the house alone. Xiao Feng told the matter of Rouge Tiger completely, and then looked at Yu Dayou seriously.

"Although the rouge leopard has been pardoned, Yan Shifan and Xiao Qin will not let her go. She couldn't stay there forever. Although I told you about it before, it was not official, and this time I promised Rouge Tiger, but I didn't have time to discuss it with you. Yu Dayou stood up and said sincerely: "Master, since the rouge leopard and I had a relationship many years ago, and the master promised their sisters, I naturally will not shirk it. After Master said it last time, I mentioned it to my mother. The lady is also very happy, she had an illness last year, and she is not well until now, and she has always wanted to give me a concubine. She said she wanted to meet Rouge Leopard to see if she was a suitable woman for the future. I was about to apply to the imperial court to bring my wife from my hometown of Quanzhou to Nanjing to live and recuperate. Let's go to Nanjing together, so that I can take care of my wife and ensure her safety. Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief, he had been worried about Yu Dayou's embarrassment, since he had this opportunity, he thought that God would have mercy, and he felt sorry for the rough life of the rouge leopard.

"One more thing, Rouge Tiger said before she died that Xiao Wuji should not be dead, and she asked me to help her kill him. I'll leave this matter to you, just the dowry you gave to the rouge leopard. Yu Dayou laughed: "That old horseman, it is really not easy to live to this day." If I see him again, I'll kill him! Since Zhang Yunqing refused to leave, Zhang Tianci's family naturally had to come over.

Wang Tuiguan's family didn't come, but they heard that Zhan Feiyun was called to his house to eat dumplings. The people in Wudang Mountain wanted to say goodbye, but Xiao Feng was really not thick-skinned enough, and felt that they had just finished helping him fight, and they were all bleeding on the road, which was really unusual, so they tried their best to keep it.

In the end, it was An Sizheng who solved the problem, as the head of the Daolu Division and Zhang Wuxin's father-in-law, who was very close to both public and private, so he set up a banquet at home and asked Zhang Wuxin to take everyone to drink.

Xiao Feng originally wanted to call all the people who entered the World View to celebrate the New Year, but the old Taoist said that the temple had already made dumplings, and even Zeng Zao called them to celebrate the New Year together.

Zhanyu was seriously injured and stayed in Yuwang's mansion to recuperate. Qi Jiguang was stationed in Datong, so naturally he couldn't come back.

Daddy Lan is gone, compared to last year, although the number of servants in the Xiao Mansion is more, it seems to be much more deserted.

When Liu Xue'er comes back and Yan Niang also comes over, everyone will definitely be lively again, but things are not people, and this year's happiness is not last year's happiness after all.

When Liu Xue'er came back, Yan Niang really came, bringing the latest fireworks, Liu Peng had already secretly run over, followed Qiaoqiao and Lan Boy, with firecrackers in one hand and food in the other, running all over the yard.

It stands to reason that on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Liu Tong and his wife should have spent the New Year at their home, and Liu Xueer would follow Xiao Feng to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year.

Why don't the two of them sing: "It's the New Year in the first month, the first day of the new year, the family reunion, and the few give New Year's greetings to the old".

But as soon as Liu Peng ran over, Liu Tong and his wife stared at home with big eyes, and they also felt extremely lonely. The daughter got married, took Xiaomei away, and the son ran away again, there was really no atmosphere.

So Liu Tong simply ordered the housekeeper to lead the servants to celebrate the New Year in the mansion, and he pulled his wife to come over, and came to arrest Liu Peng in the name of it.

Liu Tong was indignant, saying that this child is too ignorant, how can there be a Chinese New Year's Eve to run to his brother-in-law's house for the New Year, is the family unable to open the pot?

Liu Xueer protected her younger brother: "If he wants to live here, he will live here, anyway, it's all door-to-door, how can there be so much attention." Liu Tong swept Xiao Feng with the side light from the corner of his eyes, twisting his beard: "This is not good, I don't think this is very good, how can there be a big New Year's Eve to run to other people's homes, what kind ......of system is it" Xiao Feng was still a little lonely in his heart, but Liu Tong's commotion was all dissipated, and he greeted him with a smile.

"Father-in-law, Xiaoxue came back from the palace, and the palace rewarded a few rare ingredients, and Miss Liu is studying it in the kitchen. I heard that the bear's paw and deer tendon in this are the most delicious when they are eaten hot as soon as they come out of the pot, even if they are sent to you with a food box, I am afraid that they will change their taste, which is very difficult. Liu Tong immediately said: "I'm not interested in what bear's paw deer tendon is." Liu Fu's ancestors taught that the people take food as the sky. Eating is to survive, you can eat enough, young people should not be too greedy for delicious food, but should maintain a simple nature. Xiao Feng nodded again and again, expressed a kind of admiration for his father-in-law's profound thoughts, and personally led his father-in-law to the upper seat to sit down and drink tea.

Bear's paw and deer tendon are both ingredients that money may not be able to buy, because both of these things are only available near Changbai Mountain.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty's control of the Northeast was actually only half of that of Liaoning Province now, and it was still far away from Changbai Mountain.

These ingredients had to be paid tribute by the Jurchens. So although Liu Tong is not a gourmet, he heard that there was an opportunity to eat these two things, so he naturally would not let it go.

Although he was chatting and laughing with everyone, his eyes were glancing in the direction of the kitchen. The wine and food were quickly served, the servants were in the front yard, Xiao Feng Liu Tong and others were in the middle yard, and the women were in the backyard, eating at the same time.

Liu Ruyun's craftsmanship naturally didn't say anything, even the two apprentices who helped made the dishes were of a very high standard, and everyone was very satisfied.

Only Liu Tong thought about the bear's paw and deer tendon in his heart, and he didn't dare to eat more, for fear that there would be no space in his stomach after the big dishes came up for a while.

When the last specialty dish, the perfect soup, comes up, there will be no more dishes. Liu Tong was very surprised and blurted out.

"Well, what about the bear's paws and deer tendons? It's not on it yet! Xiao Feng was stunned, he was looking for an excuse to stay with his father-in-law's family, and he didn't take it to heart after being criticized by Liu Tong at that time.

Now that my father-in-law has mentioned it, he naturally wants to pay attention to it, and quickly ask someone to go to the backyard to ask if there are any dishes that have not been served.

Liu Ruyun had already changed into new clothes, sat down to eat with her sisters, and couldn't help but purse her lips and smile when she heard the servant asking.

"How can it be so easy, bear's paw soaking is divided into two types: water hair and fire hair, and the most authentic way to eat it must be made with water. Soak the bear's paw in warm water for 7 days, changing the water frequently. After soaking thoroughly, brush off the dirt with alkaline water, cut off the oil, change the water and simmer over low heat. Wait until the hair is soft, remove the hair, remove the crust of the soles, and then boil in boiling water. Wait for the palm shell to be lifted and the bones removed. That's it, and it's time to start cooking. Master Liu doesn't need to be in a hurry, he can eat bear paws by waiting until the seventh day of the new year. However, the deer tendon is faster, the water temperature is a little higher, and it can be made in three days, so come and eat it on the third day of junior high school. The servant was dizzy when he heard this, and he wrote down a rough idea, and went back to describe it, but everyone didn't understand it very well, only that the bear's paw could not be eaten until the seventh day of the first month.

Liu Tong is very sad, he hasn't eaten much yet! But now that the other dishes have been eaten almost, and the rest is cold, he is embarrassed to say that people will go back to the pot, so he can only eat a few bites of cold dishes.

Finally, the Ten Perfect Tonic Soup that came up at the end was hot, and Liu Tong launched a fierce attack on the Big Tonic Soup, it is better to be full of water than to be hungry!

A pot of tonic soup, Liu Tong drank almost all of it himself, Xiao Feng saw that his father-in-law loved this dish deeply, so he quickly asked people to go to the kitchen and add half a pot, and Liu Tong swept it away.

After eating, Liu Tong and his wife led Liu Peng home, as soon as they arrived home, Liu Tong ran to the toilet, and then quickly called the housekeeper.

"Do you have anything left to eat at home?" The housekeeper looked at Liu Tong in surprise: "Master, is my uncle's house so searching?" If you don't eat well, you won't be fed, won't you be full? Liu Tong waved his hand impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, is there anything leftover!" The housekeeper was embarrassed and said: "The old man is very strict, and he has always not allowed to waste food, and I have personally watched the meals they cooked, and the pots and bowls have been eaten well." If the old man must eat, there are meat and bones prepared for the dog in the kitchen, and he wants to improve the food for the dog during the New Year. Liu Tong's eyes lit up;

"It's enough for a dog to have bones, and it doesn't matter if there is meat on the bones, give it to the master!" Half an hour later, the housekeeper took the bone to the dog Laifu who was guarding the door at the gate of Liu's mansion, and Laifu licked it and was stunned.

This bone is simply cleaner than the one I have gnawed once, even the periosteum is gone, are you kind enough to use it for me as a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner?

Xiao Feng didn't notice that his father-in-law left hungry, and just drank with Yu Dayou cup after glass.

Yu Dayou has a lot of wine, and after Xiao Feng's internal strength has increased greatly, the amount of alcohol has also risen with the tide, and it is not at the level of the original three glasses.

But the little depression in Xiao Feng's chest never made him completely forget, it was a lot of emotions mixed together and precipitated, like a thorn in his heart.

In this, there is the unwillingness to get rid of Yan Shifan's crime, the remorse for his contempt for his enemies, the indifference to the rouge tiger, and the dissatisfaction with the senior brother's cleverness and always being mistaken by the cleverness.

More pain is actually my own torn life. I don't know what my family is doing now.

I married Liu Xue'er, but the residual poison of the Divine Pill of Bliss continued, making Liu Xue'er unable to enjoy her due rights.

He personally handed over Wang Yingxiang to Zhan Feiyun, this is what he should do, but why is there a faint pain in his heart, it's really fucking hypocritical!

There are also Liu Ruyun, Zhang Yunqing, Princess Chang'an, and someone who is inconvenient to talk about behind Liu Xue'er...... When will I be able to end this seemingly cool, but actually painful day?

Xiao Feng drank cup after cup, Yu Dayou felt very refreshed at first, being able to eat meat and drink wine with the master was more enjoyable than competing with Zhang Wuxin.

But later, I found that Xiao Feng seemed to be borrowing wine to drown his sorrows, and he was already in a bit of a trance. Yu Dayou was secretly worried, but he didn't dare to stop it, so he had to hope for Zhang Tianci at the same table.

"Boss Zhang, my master has drunk a lot, and it's not too early, let's see if we can almost accept it."

"Hey, hey, big brother is right! Big brother is right! Big brother, let's have another drink! Yu Dayou was speechless, so he had to pat Xiao Feng on the shoulder: "Master, it's almost enough, I've really drunk a lot today." Xiao Feng looked at Yu Dayou drunkenly: "Dayou, you say, why do people love to drink?" Yu Dayou was stunned for a moment, he had drunk wine for half his life, and he really hadn't thought about it, but since the master asked, he thought about it carefully.

"Those who practice martial arts use wine to invigorate their blood; Xinglin Doctor, with wine medicine; Happy people use wine to cheer up, and sad people use wine to relieve their worries. Xiao Feng laughed: "That's right, that's good!" Happy people use wine to cheer up, and sad people use wine to relieve their worries. But if a man is really happy, how can he care if there is wine or not? If a man is really sad, what wine can relieve his sorrows? It's just self-deception. Xiao Feng smiled and lifted the wine jug, drank it directly to his mouth, and walked out while drinking.

Yu Dayou followed out uneasily. Zhang Tianci also had to follow, but unfortunately his feet slipped, and he just shouted: "Big brother, don't go, big brother have another drink, big brother, big brother is right!" Xiao Feng walked to the middle of the yard, and he suddenly felt that he was here last year, and the front and back yards were also very lively, and he seemed to see a moon like a silver hook in the sky.

But not today, there is no moon today. Maybe last year's moon was also its own delusion? After all, many people told him that there should not be a moon on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Could it be that I drank too much last year, and the curved moon was actually imagined in my heart? Xiao Feng opened the lid of the pot and poured the remaining half pot of wine into his mouth, and the depressed breath really turned into a laugh that looked up to the sky as if it was being lifted up by wine.

"Wine, wine, wine. The wine is made by Du Kang, and the sorrow is happy. Although Du Kang is gone, this thing is not extinct. Just because of sorrow, the eternity will not melt! The moon is dark and the clouds are blocked, and the frost is heavy. When flying, I saw the swallow, and sang a few places alone. The dream is warm, and the tent is empty. It's just that people are young, and the brocade clothes return early. How do you know that life is short, and the flowers bloom a few degrees red. In the blink of an eye, the total angle is completed, and thousands of miles go to fame. Mother's hometown, wanderer's love for the world. Thousands of feet of wood in front of the hall, the leaves fall and scatter. Rest to the end of the day, Guanshan tens of thousands of weight. Poetry and books are useless, what is the merit of passing them on to the world? Taiping people don't read it, and troubled times are born early. Don't ask about human affairs, Haoshou is poor. Lonely before death, why bother with the name after death. The ascetic nature of the monk is not vacuum. If you are sincere and have no worries, why bother to chant the scriptures. but because of sorrow, no one listens to what he wants to say. Helplessly sat in front of the hall and complained to the Buddha. Work diligently day and night, and listen to the bells in the morning and evening. The body is still attached to the bones, and the heart is in the hands of the Buddha. I am not writing this song to be empty. Wine is not as good as the population, and it is difficult to dispel the feelings. There is no gentleman after drinking, and the right to be a drunkard. Life is like this, but it is vanity. Empty! Empty! Empty! Hahaha, hahahahaha......haha

He only felt today that there may be a lot of secrets hidden in Master's heart. Usually, he always felt that no matter what problems he had, as long as he came to the master, they would disappear.

But today he suddenly understood that no matter how smart a person is, he has things that he can't solve, and no matter how transparent people are, he has troubles that he can't see.

Not only Yu Dayou, but the courtyard was already full of people, and everyone listened to Xiao Feng's poems, and they all aroused their own hearts, and those servants were no exception.

There is a very nonsense phenomenon, that is, people always seem to think that only the glamorous and beautiful young ladies who can be the protagonists are equipped with their hearts, and those supporting characters who don't even have names are not worthy of their hearts.

But where in the world is there no one who has a heart? It's just a matter of whether his heart will be paid attention to, and whether his voice can be heard.

Many people know that peaches are very cold, but few people know that steamed buns are also very cold; Many people know that catfish are fat, but few people know that leeks are very thin.

Xiao Feng was put back into the house by Liu Xueer and Xiaomei, and Zhang Tianci also shouted to follow up, but was suppressed by Zhang Yunqing and Mrs. Zhang.

In the end, Yan Niang helped Mrs. Zhang throw Zhang Tianci into the car, looking at Mrs. Zhang's expression when she got into the car, Zhang Yunqing was secretly worried about her father in her heart.

Yan Niang sighed, she was afraid that Boss Zhang would not be able to patronize Chunyan Tower in three days. The brocade guard who listened to the root of the wall copied the poems he heard to the palace as quickly as possible, and the Jiajing family was waiting.

Princess Chang'an stared at Xiao Chunzi who trotted in with wide eyes: "Did you do it, did Lord Xiao do it?" Do you do it yourself, or do you do it with someone else? Haruko thought the princess's words sounded strange, but she didn't have time to think about it and hurriedly answered.

"I did it, Lord Xiao didn't use others, I did it myself, I did it, and I used both hands! Well, I mean, with a flask in one hand and a point to heaven in the other, it's like there's someone in the sky, as if he's talking to someone in the sky! Jiajing nodded again and again: "Senior brother has a wife and daughter in heaven, and he naturally misses it very much." King Yu quietly stretched out a hand, spread out his palm and put it in front of King Jing: "I am willing to lose the bet, Master has done it!" King Jing took out a gold ingot from his bosom and put it in King Yu's hand angrily: "He has drunk, if my father allows me to drink, so will I." Xiao Chunzi read the poem copied by Jinyiwei to Jiajing, and Jiajing listened to it very attentively, and the princess also listened to it very attentively.

After a long time, Jiajing breathed a sigh of relief: "Senior brother's cultivation has really improved again, it seems that our senior brother's days in the red dust are numbered." Huang Jin, you can arrange for going to bed tonight. You three, go back to your own house. Huang Jin went out to get the silver plate, put the small signs one by one, thought about it, put the signs of Concubine Kang and Concubine Lu Jing in the middle position, and then saw the two princes snorting at each other and boarding the car separately.

Princess Chang'an sneakily also got into the carriage. Huang Jin hurriedly ran up two steps.

"Princess, why don't you go back to the Imperial Garden, get in the car?" The princess glared at him: "You don't have a lot to do, help me make up a record in the palace, I'm going to Xiao Mansion for the night." Master Xiao must have a very serious heart to write this kind of poem, I have to go and see him! ”
