Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 425 A Sunny Afternoon (1 More)

The apricot blossom stuffing was bought back quickly, Ji Wuyan opened the paper seal and smelled it, then put it down in disinterest.

For the rest of the afternoon, she lay under the old tree in the yard who did not know how many years old, holding the cat and petting it one after another. Ji Feng came to talk to Ji Wuyan with his snack jar in his arms. , she also carried a bit of perfunctory that couldn't be concealed.

Jifeng asked her what's wrong, she touched Jifeng's head, smiled wearily, and said, "I want to drink the apricot blossom wine at home..."

"Apricot flower brew?" Ji Feng is young, but he knows the movement of the house well, "Didn't brother Cen Yan go to buy apricot blossom brew early in the morning? Is the apricot blossom brew here not as good as the one at home?"

"Um……"

Ji Feng was ignorant of worldly affairs, "Then write a letter to Brother Chu and ask him to send it to us."

Ji Wuyan patted his head again, smiled without saying a word, not knowing how to explain to a child that there is no such flavor of apricot blossom stuffing in this world anymore.So, she just told him softly, "Yeah. Please let Ji Feng help the girl write a letter to Brother Chu and tell him to dig two jars of apricot flower wine from my yard and send them over..."

"Okay... then can I ask Brother Chu to send me some pastries made by Aunt Dou? The pastries here are not as delicious as those made by Aunt Dou."

Aunt Dou is the cook in Zhuangzi, and she makes excellent dim sum.Ji Wuyan just shook his head and regretted, "But the dim sum has been on the road for a long time, and the taste will not be so delicious. Maybe it will go bad..."

"Oh..." Ji Feng became sleepy for a moment, "That's a pity... I can only wait for us to go back, and then ask Aunt Dou to work harder and cook more for me."

"Well, let's go." Ji Wuyan patted him, and raised his chin toward the room, "The handwriting should be nicer, otherwise Brother Chu will talk about it again."

"Oh..." Jifeng sighed slightly, feeling that even if he wrote it seriously, Brother Chu would probably say that word.Since you always have to be talked about, why don't you ask Aunt Dou in the letter if there are any cakes that can be stored for a long time without spoiling... In this way, it is worthwhile to be talked about.

After Ji Wuyan left, Ji Wuyan hugged the cat and continued to be in a daze. The cat was also well-behaved, laying on Ji Wuyan's lap, yawning and basking in the sun with squinted eyes, lazily, occasionally opening its eyes and licking its paws. He continued to lie down and sleep again.

It wasn't until sunset, when the dining room came to ask when the meal was served, that Ji Wuyan slowly sat up from the bed, nodded and said, "Go to the back garden, and call everyone."

Saying that, she bent down and put down the cat in her hand, tightened her skirt, turned around to find a thin blanket, and continued to nest in the soft blanket for a while, until Ziqiu came to ask her to have dinner, and she did not give it up. Shi Ran got up and walked towards the back garden.The dinner was also normal, but she didn't drink any alcohol. Although her expression was a bit dull, she seemed more thoughtful, as if she was worrying about something in her heart. Everyone thought she was worried about the coming of the Chen family , I didn't ask much.

No one knew that the heavy depression in her heart lingered on such a sunny afternoon, which was no different from before.And the first cup of peach blossom wine in front of her, she didn't even hold it up, and finally entered Chen Luoxin's mouth, Shen girl was half drunk, holding the wine glass and stepping on the stool to speak boldly, threatening to Guard the gate of the Ji family, and beat those from the Chen family back one by one. In short, every inch of land within the Ji family will be contested!
If people who don't know the situation heard it, they might think that the Chen family came to attack the city aggressively.

That night, everyone except Ji Wuyan drank a lot. Even Mr. Chen, who usually doesn't drink at all, drank two glasses, holding his glass with red cheeks and watching everyone frolicking.Ji Feng was still young and couldn't drink alcohol. At first he ate vegetables and soup honestly, but then he couldn't hold it back anymore. He secretly took two sips from Cen Yan's wine glass, licked the corners of his mouth, and wanted to take two sips, but Ji Wuyan A look stopped him.

After the apricot blossom wine was finished, Cen Yan went to move the wine in the wine cellar. In the end, no one knew how much he drank, and when he drank it, he dispersed in a distorted manner.

So, when Li Yuqi brought all the officials from the Ministry of Rites to the gate of the city to welcome everyone from the Chen family in the early morning of the next day, all the members of the Ji family... were still asleep with a hangover.

I heard that His Royal Highness first took the Chen family to the largest restaurant in the city to have a meal and watch a play, and then took them to the post house arranged early in the morning to rest, and then took all the officials together. left in a big way.In short, everyone in Yanjing City saw the royal family's warm hospitality to the Chen family.

The leader of the Chen family this time is a leader of the younger generation. Some people say that Chen Yinuo is the most likely to become Chen Song's second genius in the Chen family over the years.

A genius boy has his own arrogance. While he has been placed high hopes on him since he was born, he is also overwhelmed by the word "Chen Song". No matter how hard he works, how good he is, and how far behind his peers, he is destined to be Becoming a "Chen Song No. [-]", under the pressure of years and months, is naturally very sensitive and persistent to "Chen Song".

If Chen Song is dead, he can't compete with a dead person... Now that Chen Song is still alive, he will have to compete no matter what, this Chen family...traitor!
No one knows how long Chen Yinuo has waited for this opportunity, and now seeing this person is just a few feet away, naturally he can't wait for a moment, and at the moment, alone, he asked the direction of Ji's house, and went straight to the door .Who would have thought that when we arrived at Ji's house, we would see the door closed tightly. After knocking on the door for a while, the vermilion door was slowly opened from the inside, and the yawning young man's sleepy eyes blurred, "Who is it? Who are you looking for?"

The sun was high, but the concierge still didn't wake up... Chen Yinuo's impression of Ji's family had dropped again, but he still bowed his hands and said politely, "Chen Yinuo, the Chen family, come to see Chen Song."

Unexpectedly, the concierge yawned again and waved his hand, "No, no, no, no, my girl has ordered that the Ji family will close the door to thank guests from today, and no one will be seen. Please go back." As he said, he was about to close the door.

Chen Yinuo quickly stopped her, "I don't want to see your girl. If your house closes the door to thank you, can you please go to Chen Song's place and tell me, Chen Yinuo come to meet you, please." He went out to talk."

The porter had no patience, and he didn't know what strength he used, so he pushed Chen Yinuo's hand that was firmly on the door away, "If you say you don't see it, you don't see it, how can there be so many twists and turns... …At such a young age, if you want to meet my old Mr. Chen, you don’t know how to be polite, and you even call him by first name, it’s really rude!"

With that said, the door slammed shut with a bang.
