Chapter 147 New Year
"It turns out Shuyi... likes it very much."
Pei Yanli pecked her shoulders lightly, whispering in a daze, saying that the snow in the yard was not as beautiful as hers.
"You, shut up!"
Cheng Shuyi's face turned red after hearing what he said.
But Pei Yanli just has this bad taste. He is not stingy in expressing his feelings, nor is he stingy in praising her good points.
"I can't close it."
Pei Yanli raised his head, his eyes narrowed with affection, and he sighed comfortably: "Shuyi has opened my whole body."
"you!"
His dirty talk almost made Cheng Shuyi cry.
She was shy and didn't want to listen, and was also afraid that he would wake the child, so she covered his mouth with her backhand.
Pei Yanli was suppressed, his head tilted back and resting on the back of the sofa.
He didn't resist.
He looked at her with a smile in his eyes.
The dull and joyful laughter spread from the chest to the throat, and the Adam's apple on the slender neck vibrated, which was extremely enjoyable.
Pei Yanli loved her look like a kitten with its fur standing on end.
I want to do it hard.
"Shuyi, you'd better cover your mouth..." Pei Yanli hugged her and turned over, pressing her on the couch.
The snow in the yard gradually got heavier.
The person on the couch no longer had time to watch the snow.
-
Lunar New Year's eve.
The Chinese New Year always makes children particularly excited.
After the first firecrackers blasted in the early morning of Shengjing City, the two kids woke up.
The intermittent snow in the past few days has made the entire Shengjing City white at dawn every day.
The two cubs now open their eyes every day to find out how thick the snow is outside.
They wanted to build a snowman.
But it's not the heaviest snow yet.
The snow these days is barely above the ankles.
Despite this, it still couldn't stop the two cubs from rolling and playing in the snow.
Today too.
When they got up and saw the newly fallen snow, the two cubs jumped up and rolled around in the yard.
Cheng Shuyi and Pei Yanli returned to Yun City before dawn to buy fish, meat, fresh fruits and vegetables.
Today is also New Year's Eve in Yun City.
The variety of fresh fish and meat was richer than in Shengjing, so she bought a lot.
Pei Yanli must go with her and help carry things.
The two of them came back at the time when the children woke up, and when they came back they saw the two kids rolling on the ground.
There was snow on my face and clothes.
Pei Yanli did not scold the child, but only warned him: "Be careful not to catch a cold."
A few days ago, the two children saw snow for the first time. They played outside for a day and came back with a fever.
This is just why I don't learn my lesson.
Cheng Shuyi brought two bowls of seafood wontons and called the two kids back into the house to eat.
She bought this in Yun City, ready-made.
She and Pei Yanli had eaten there in Yun City.
In the evening, Pei Yanli had to go to the palace to attend a palace banquet, so they had to have the New Year's Eve dinner in the afternoon.
So Cheng Shuyi didn't have time to make breakfast and now he has to busy himself with preparing New Year's Eve dinner and fried food.
Pei Yanli opened the gate.
He took a broom and swept the steps inside and outside the gate, as well as the two stone paths in the yard.
Then he went to clear the snow from the vegetable shed and replaced it with new food and fodder for his horse.
The maid who does odd jobs comes once every three days, mostly doing laundry and cleaning.
As for the rest, Pei Yanli has become accustomed to doing them.
There's nothing wrong with the daily life of the world.
Since Cheng Shuyi didn't ask about court affairs, he didn't bring his court appearance back home.
Because if that were the case, it would be no different from the previous Regent's Palace.
Family and court are both important to him.
What Pei Yanli needs to do is to clearly distinguish the two and strike a balance.
The two children put on their new clothes and went out again.
"Dad, I'm going out to play—"
My sister went out with a paper bag in her arms.
My brother followed, dragging his wooden horse shoes, and added helpfully: "Let's go play in the moat..."
Snow also accumulated on the ice surface of the moat.
The snow there is clean, without mud or grass clippings, and every day a large group of children play on the ice of the moat.
But it seems that Xuxu didn't reach as far as the moat.
She played near her home, lighting firecrackers and blowing up snow piles with the kids in the alley.
When the firecrackers were lit, Pei Yanli could still hear his daughter running away in surprise and laughter.
"Putting music, chess, calligraphy and painting in the house has no effect at all."
Cheng Shuyi came out of the kitchen to get some cold water, mixed it with hot water, and prepared to cook.
She also heard her daughter's voice.
They prepared things for their two children to develop their interests and hobbies, filling the entire room.
I haven't heard a sound for several days.
Pei Yanli washed his hands and came to help.
Cheng Shuyi once joked with him that he had a stable job as a prince and hoped that he would take care of the family more and learn how to cook.
She was joking, but he took it to heart.
Pei Yanli now only wants to pamper his wife and raise children.
Living a good life may not be in line with his status, but he is content with it.
"It's probably because of the winter vacation." Pei Yanli was not in a hurry. "When the child is older, we can hire a teacher to teach him."
Cheng Shuyi also knew that it was too early to ask two five-and-a-half-year-old children to learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
But she just couldn't help it.
There is always a mentality that since things are already prepared, we hope they can use them and learn from them.
"Godmother——"
Changge'er's voice came from the gate.
Cheng Shuyi responded "Hey" in the kitchen, and just as he finished speaking, Yan Ge'er's voice was heard outside the door again.
She walked out of the kitchen and saw the two children standing in the yard with things in their hands.
They were still the same as before, one civil and one military, dressed and had the same temperament.
Only after one winter vacation, Chang Ge'er's gentle scholarly temperament has already emerged.
But he is not completely weak and frail like a scholar.
He is introverted and calm, with an upright posture, surrounded by lush forests and bamboos, and his height is very tall.
It has the flavor of the childhood of the powerful officials in novels.
Yan Ge'er is the opposite of him.
This kid has a bit of an evil aura...
An unclear, elusive, and both good and evil feeling.
Cheng Shuyi looked at Yan Ge'er and sighed in his heart: When this kid grows up, I'm afraid he will charm a lot of girls.
"Why are you here?" Cheng Shuyi asked with a smile.
"My mother made some dumplings and asked me to bring them over." Changger handed over the bamboo winnowing basket in his hand.
It was covered with a clean white cloth.
Cheng Shuyi lifted a corner and inside were freshly wrapped dumplings with thin skin and large fillings.
"Great!" Cheng Shuyi said, "My godmother doesn't know how to roll noodles, and she was planning to go out and buy some, and you brought it here."
"Thank your mother for me."
She asked Pei Yanli and found out that people in Shengjing City eat dumplings during the New Year.
But people in Yun City don’t eat dumplings very often during the Chinese New Year.
So when they went back to buy groceries this morning, they couldn't buy freshly made dumplings.
The quick-frozen ones seem a bit lacking.
Cheng Shuyi thought about going to the street to see if there was anything for sale.
Unexpectedly, Shen Zhou packed it and sent it to her.
Yan Ge'er also handed the thing in his hand to Cheng Shuyi: "Godmother, this is the persimmon cake made by my grandmother. My mother asked me to bring it to you to try."
Persimmon cake is made from ripe soft persimmons.
It is also a must-have for the New Year in Shengjing City, symbolizing good luck in everything.
Cheng Shuyi took them all without hesitation.
"It's just right that you're here. Godmother has something to bring back for you."
She went back this morning to buy some fish and meat, and prepared a portion for the Shen and Lin families, as well as for the General's Mansion and the Emperor.
It was the Boston lobster and Spanish ham she had ordered long ago.
Cheng Shuyi had just opened the back of the lobster. A Boston lobster weighed more than six pounds and could fill an entire vegetable basket.
The ham arrives pre-cut and packaged in a beautifully crafted box.
"This big lobster can be steamed or cooked into porridge or soup. I've already processed it."
Cheng Shuyi gave them each a basket and a box of ham, and instructed them, "Go back and tell your mother that lobsters are easy to cook and don't need to be cooked for too long."
"There's meat in this box. You can eat it directly without cooking it."
The two children nodded seriously and thanked him: "Thank you, godmother."
Cheng Shuyi smiled and said, "Go back. Remember to come and pay New Year's greetings to your godmother tomorrow. She will prepare red envelopes for you."
...dividing line...
Sorry, I'm not very good at writing endings, so I kept getting stuck.
Anyway, it's coming to an end.
