Chapter 227

Zhao Lu did not want to leave when he came back this time, Xiaodong asked Zhunxiner from An Wang, and his heart finally fell back to reality.

"Then what job did brother change?"

King An thought for a while, and said slowly: "It hasn't been decided yet, anyway, I'm staying in the capital."

Xiaodong said happily: "I will discuss it with Qi's mother when I come back, and make some nourishing food for my brother. There is no good food to eat in a place like Chengling. It's a pity that the weather is too cold now, and my brother likes to eat I can’t make the vegetable rolls and mincemeat soup.”

Wang An raised his eyebrows: "Can you make Sanzhen Niangyuanzi?"

This is Wang An's favorite food.

Xiaodong smiled and said, "Of course I can—I'll do it for you when I gather enough strength."

Dare to be affectionate, Wang An will also be jealous.

"You'd better take a rest."

Well, Xiaodong is only showing off his skills with his mouth now.With a big belly, you must not enter the kitchen.As for stuffed dumplings?It needs to boil the noodles, knead the noodles, adjust the stuffing, seasonings, and cook the soup... It is definitely not something that Xiaodong can do now.

This year has been very lively, Zhao Lu's return is a happy event, Xiaodong's pregnancy is another, Qin's hurriedly rushed, and finally arrived in the capital on the 21st of the twelfth lunar month——the Qin family did not come alone, Swallow They also came together, the Li brothers couldn't go back to Suizhou, and of course they had to spend the New Year in the palace.Swallow is obsessed with Qin's family, and must come to celebrate the New Year with her two elder brothers.

Li Changhe and Yao Jinfeng couldn't come - the child is still young, so he can't leave his mother.Take it with you on the road, but you can't stand the bumps and toss on the road.

When the brothers and sisters of the Li family met, they chattered non-stop every day, as if they wanted to make up for the half-year absence.Jixian Hall was also closed for Chinese New Year, and the Li brothers took Yanzi to the streets.They are not the same now as when they first came to the capital, their eyes were darkened then, but now they can be regarded as half local snakes.The gang of young masters I know at Fengnan Academy may not be good at reading, but they are good at everything when it comes to eating, drinking and having fun.Chinese New Year is approaching, although many businessmen have closed their businesses and returned to their hometowns, the east and west markets are still bustling with all kinds of New Year's goods, food, cloth, and all kinds of strange and pleasing things.Swallows are rare in everything, and everything is not available in Suizhou.After buying a large bag of things, Xiaodong came back to present treasures. Seeing that she had bought dozens of all kinds of hair ties, Xiaodong couldn't help laughing: "How many years are you planning to use?"

Swallow scratched her head: "They all look pretty good, and I don't know which one is better after choosing. The elder brother said that we should just get one of the same." She picked up a bright red velvet rope and compared it next to the hanging servant girl: " Auntie, do you think this looks better, or the yellow one?"

Before Xiaodong could speak, Qin interjected: "Da Hong is doing well. It's the Chinese New Year, and Da Hong is celebrating."

Yanzi smiled and said: "I also think it's good to be red, grandma, please help me tie it."

Qin smiled and took off the original hair tie for her, and tied the new hair tie.Swallow's hair was growing well, and it was set off by the bright red hair rope, which made it look thicker and darker.

She looked at it again and again in front of the mirror, shook her head and said, "I'll show it to my brother." She lived up to her name, and rushed out of the door like a swallow.

"This girl, there's never a time to stop." Qin shook her head.

But Xiaodong feels that Yanzi seems to be different from the last time they parted.At that time, this girl didn't pay much attention to dressing, but now she already knows how to love beauty.

"Jinfeng gave birth to a daughter, what does the Li family say?"

"Hey, Changhe himself was very happy. He said that his daughter is good, she is born like a mother, and she must be a beautiful girl in the future." Qin said with a smile: "It's probably because Tusheng and Baocheng brothers are entangled. Such a naughty boy, his hair can turn gray."

This is true.

Although Li Changhe was becoming a father for the first time——the three brothers and sisters of the Li family were like his own children.

"How is Jinfeng?"

"She's doing well," said Qin, "she was about to go to the field after giving birth, so I tried to persuade her, but she went to the field the next day. The wet nurse she found didn't come in handy. She fed and took care of the baby herself. Others stepped in to help."

Uh... what a tough maternity.

Xiaodong has self-knowledge, but she doesn't have such good qualities, nor is she so capable.

Qin brushed her hair on the temples - she was not used to the hairstyle in Beijing.In the past two years, the buns in the capital have been combed higher and higher. The tallest bun Xiaodong has ever seen is almost three feet high. It's a good thing that the neck can hold up without being crushed.Many wigs are stuffed into those buns, and some are supported by bamboo bone covers or something, and the tops are filled with golden jewelry.Xiaodong is not used to combing that, and so is Qin.When she was in Suizhou, she sometimes only braided her hair, and then used a bone hairpin, which was simple and capable.When she arrived in the capital, it was inevitable that she would follow the customs of the countryside. Xiaodong pointed out two servant girls to serve her. The clothes and hair style followed the style of the capital. Qin said with a smile: "I am used to being wild, so I suddenly feel so particular about it, I feel weird."

Of course it would be awkward, aside from other things, you should not turn your head or walk too much, otherwise the bun will easily lose its shape, and the hairpins inserted on it will slip off.

Mrs. Qin brought several carts full of things, gifts for her in-laws, all kinds of gifts for Xiaodong and the child who was about to be born, even Mrs. Hu and Hongfu had their share, except Qin Lie's.He complained: "Mother's heart is so biased, am I really my own son? Didn't I just pick it up on the side of the road? Why does everyone have a share but I don't?"

Qin spread her hands: "I can't help it, I can't fit so many things, so I have to reduce your share."

As the mother and son talked back and forth, Xiaodong turned around and snickered.

Qin Lie took Xiaodong's hand and sighed: "Mother only has her daughter-in-law and grandson in her heart, and she doesn't take her son seriously. She is really throwing everything at the bottom. She doesn't even think about it. If there is no son, where will the daughter-in-law and grandson come from?" come?"

Qin poked him on the forehead: "Of course I counted on you before. Now that I have a wife and a grandson, you are worthless."

Qin Lie looked up to the sky and sighed: "You are crossing the river and tearing down the bridge!"

It was the first time that Prince An's Mansion was so lively during the Chinese New Year. There was a large table full of people, chatting and laughing.After the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone watched the New Year together. Zhao Lu was sitting on Xiaodong's left, and Qin Lie was sitting on his right.Zhao Lu secretly helped her when playing guessing puzzles, and Qin Lie whispered the answer to her when guessing crossword puzzles.Wang An saw such an obvious cheating behavior and just laughed without saying a word.When throwing dice, Yanzi took the lead, and Zhao Lu won the first place in guessing the crossword puzzle, and King An generously gave each of them a big red envelope.Tu Sheng and Bao Cheng were eager to challenge Qin Lie, but they couldn't beat Qin Lie even though they wrestled Qin Lie's wrist together.

Xiaodong couldn't bear it anymore, so Qin Lie accompanied her back to the room first.All the people living in the area of ​​Anlefang are clan princes, some people have hired an opera troupe, and there is a sound from a distance, they are singing lively.The sound of setting off firecrackers and fireworks is sparse and dense.

Qin Lie put his hand lightly on Xiaodong's stomach, and said in a low voice, "By this time next year, there will be only three of us."

Xiaodong snorted, and moved her head closer to his chest.

"I've never been so happy before." Qin Lie pushed his pillow back and leaned there: "A big and lively family is together. One year during the Chinese New Year, I was still on the way, staying in an inn , listening to the sound of firecrackers outside, the dishes on the table are all cold... I drank a jug of wine and slept with my head covered, but I couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning."

Uh, a bit stuck~~
