The reason why Qin Fang bought firecrackers was, of course, to celebrate the end of his suffering days, but he couldn't say this, otherwise he would definitely not be able to go to bed today. So he found a serious reason: "When I went to the county town, I saw someone setting off firecrackers, and I thought it was very beautiful, so I bought some for everyone to try. Si Ya and Shou Cheng are so old, but they have never seen firecrackers, and it's the New Year after all, so it's good to have some atmosphere." Qin Fang felt that using his younger brother and sister as an excuse was very appropriate.

Yang Haiyan didn't think much about it, but said with some joy: "I haven't seen firecrackers for a long time. When I was in the capital in previous years, I didn't see them often. I could only see them during the New Year and other festivals." This is the memory of the original owner. The last time she saw fireworks was during the Chinese New Year. Everyone in the village was setting off fireworks, and it was very lively. However, she never set off fireworks because she was alone.

Qin Fang followed her words and said, "That's great. After dinner, let's set them off and have fun."

Yang Haiyan couldn't help but look at him a few more times. It was hard to imagine that Qin Fang could be so childish. However, "Did you buy a lot?"

Qin Fang said generously, "Enough for you to play." It was a celebration, and to get in the mood, of course he had to buy a lot.

Yang Haiyan always felt that Qin Fang was weird today, but she didn't think much about it.

Compared with last year, this year's New Year's Eve was more lively. This year, Yang Haiyan sold fifteen pigs from her manor, earning less than two taels from each pig, which added up to nearly thirty taels. Most people only sell pigs for one and a half taels of silver. The reason why the pigs in her manor sell well is because they have more meat, or because they have more potatoes and sweet potatoes. If they eat pig grass every day, how can they be so fat? Therefore, the cost investment is still rewarding. However, in ancient times when people were not full, only landlords could feed pigs with potatoes and sweet potatoes like this, and ordinary people could not do so.

Because they were pigs raised by themselves, they were particularly not stingy when eating, so on New Year's Eve, Yang Haiyan roasted a whole pig again. Not only roasted a whole pig, but also roasted a whole lamb. They were a family of four, plus Nanny Lian, Aunt Fan, Aunt Yu, Uncle Hong's family, and five private guards.

With more than twenty people, there would definitely be more than enough for a roasted whole pig and a roasted whole lamb, so Han Zhen and other centurions were called over. With a dozen men, there would be no worries about not finishing the roasted whole pig and roasted whole lamb.

Next to the roasted whole pig and roasted whole lamb, there were other grills, with ingredients such as leeks, cabbage, etc. Although it was different from the New Year's Eve of these years, it had a special atmosphere of life.

In fact, during this period, the whole military camp was in turmoil, not only Qin Fangzang, but also the centurions. Regarding the affairs of the court envoys and the affairs of the Yonghe Marquis' Mansion, everyone knew a little bit. Therefore, this meal at the Qin family had a different meaning.

After eating the roasted whole pig and roasted whole lamb, the centurions sat in Qin's house for a while before leaving.

Han Zhen ran back home very fast. As soon as he got home, he called out, "Dahua..."

Yang Dahua's voice came from the room, "Hey... the child is asleep, be gentle." Yang Dahua was originally on the invitation list, but she had to take care of the child at home, so she didn't go.

Han Zhen: "Okay, I'll be gentle. You get up quickly. I brought you some roasted pork and lamb. They smell really good."

Yang Dahua smiled knowingly and said, "I'm already lying down. You can keep them for tomorrow."

Han Zhen brought the roasted pork and lamb into the room: "Eat quickly. They taste better when they're hot. Besides, we'll have food at home tomorrow."

Yang Dahua smelled the food and thought it was delicious. She was indeed horny, so she got up too. But she didn't eat alone, but invited Han Zhen to eat with her: "You can eat with us."

Han Zhen said: "I ate a lot at Qin's house, such a big roasted whole pig, and such a big roasted whole lamb, and everyone was very full."

Yang Dahua heard this and didn't persuade him to eat: "That's also Haiyan's good cooking. If it were an ordinary person, how could she cook like this. Not only does she know how to cook, but she is also generous."

Han Zhen smiled and didn't comment on this. What does he say about other people's wives?

Yang Dahua asked again: "It's very lively today, isn't it?"

Han Zhen said: "It is indeed lively. All ten of us centurions went, and Qin Fang's family also bought firecrackers, which is quite interesting. The firecrackers banged and bloomed in the air, which was particularly beautiful." However, what he felt more was that everyone had grown up. Looking back on this year and the past few years, Han Zhen obviously felt the difference, and also felt the difference between him and Qin Fang. The distance between them was getting farther and farther. However, Han Zhen was also happy that Qin Fang had a promising future. Yang

Dahua couldn't help feeling happy when she heard him say that. Firecrackers, she hasn't seen them since she married to the border. When she was in the capital before, although they were not common, she could see them several times a year. Thinking of this, she also said: "When I was in the capital, I would see firecrackers every year. Every time I saw firecrackers blooming in the sky, I felt particularly good, as if all my worries would pass. But now, since I married you, I have never had any worries."

Han Zhen's eyes were full of tenderness when he heard her say this. Whether it is a man or a woman, they all like to hear some nice words, this is true between lovers and between husband and wife. Their marriage was arranged by the court, and they had no right to choose each other. So after getting married, they could only understand each other and accommodate each other with bumps and bruises. Han Zhen felt that he was very lucky to be able to marry Yang Dahua. She was a very virtuous and gentle woman. When he was with her, he didn't feel forced at all.

Han Zhen couldn't help but come forward and hug Yang Dahua: "Dahua, thank you, thank you for helping me have a baby, thank you for helping me take care of the house."

Yang Dahua leaned in his arms with a faint smile. She felt that she should thank him, thank him for being so good to her, thank him for making her feel so happy. Yang Dahua never thought in her life that she could marry someone like Han Zhen, mainly because he was so handsome. When she was in the Yang Mansion before, Yang Dahua thought she would marry a servant and live a very ordinary life. But now, she has freedom.

The Qin family's New Year's Eve barbecue was over. After everyone left, Nanny Lian led people to clean up, and the private family members also helped.

Yang Haiyan yawned, and Qin Fang asked him: "Are you going to keep watch?"

Yang Haiyan shook her head: "No, I'm sleepy." In modern times, she still keeps watch. In fact, it's not a night watch, but with a mobile phone and the Internet, she played and it was past twelve o'clock, which was equivalent to keeping watch. But in ancient times, people were used to going to bed early and getting up early, so they couldn't keep watch. "Are you keeping watch?"

Han Zhen looked at her thoughtfully, and then said heavily: "I'm keeping watch." He must keep watch, he must keep watch, he must keep watch.

Yang Haiyan nodded: "Then I'll go take a shower and go to sleep."

Qin Fang nodded: "Then you have a good sleep." It was only 9 o'clock, and there was still an hour and a half until 4:45 of midnight. Qin Fang felt that this hour and a half was enough for his wife to have a good sleep. Then at 4:45 of midnight, his wife would be in good spirits, and he would start to collect the debts from more than a year, and the kind with interest.

So, Qin Fang looked at Yang Haiyan as if he was looking at prey.

However, because it was night, Yang Haiyan did not notice.

Speaking of which, Yang Haiyan also knew that she would be eighteen after the Chinese New Year, and she also knew that she had promised to consummate her marriage with Qin Fang when she turned eighteen, but she didn't know that Qin Fang was unwilling to wait even for a few days, and was waiting for the arrival of midnight every moment.

If Yang Haiyan knew Qin Fang's thoughts at this moment, she would be so scared that she would sleep in a separate room.

Because it was too late today, Yang Haiyan did not take a bath, but because her body odor was stronger after eating barbecue, she still took a good bath and washed her hair.

In ancient times, after washing your hair, you had to wring it dry, which was a very troublesome thing, because no matter how dry it was, it would still be wet. But Yang Haiyan had experience. She took a shower and washed her hair in the bathroom, then took out the hair dryer hood she bought on the platform and started drying her hair. The hair dryer hood is not like a hair dryer. It is noiseless, so when you are drying your hair, no one outside will notice. Of course, the effect is not as good as a hair dryer, but it is better than nothing.

After her hair was almost dry, Yang Haiyan went to bed. In fact, she dared to dry her hair because she knew Qin Fang would be on guard. If Qin Fang was not on guard, she would not dare to dry her hair. Her hair would dry so quickly after washing, and she would definitely be suspected. However, even if she was suspected, she would not suspect anything.

Qin Fang was on guard with his younger brothers and sisters. There were also several private guards beside them. Kun Daying, the son of the Kunshi family, was also there, chatting with Qin Shoucheng. As for the women of the private family, they were keeping watch in the lower courtyard.

Keeping watch is a tradition that everyone likes. Especially in a family like the Qin family, after the night watch, the kitchen would send a midnight snack. Yang Haiyan asked Aunt Fan to prepare dumplings, so everyone was willing to keep watch for the dumplings.

When it was three quarters after midnight, Qin Fang picked up the remaining firecrackers and set them off again, as if celebrating the new year. In fact, Qin Fang was celebrating his wedding night. So as soon as the firecrackers were set off, he got up and left.

Aunt Fan brought the midnight snack, and seeing Qin Fang coming out, she hurriedly asked, "Sir, don't you want to have a midnight snack?"

Qin Fang said, "No, I suddenly feel very sleepy. I'm going to sleep. You guys can eat slowly. Tomorrow is the first day of the new year, it's okay to get up a little later.

" Aunt Fan bowed, "Yes, thank you, sir."

Qin Fang smiled for the first time, and returned to the main courtyard in a good mood. He first went to the room to get the clothes to change after taking a bath. When he got the underwear, he picked the red one. He only wore this red underwear once because the color was too bright. But now, he feels like wearing it.
