Chapter 463: Staying Up All Years
Looking at the gentle Li and then at the beautiful Xie Murong, Helian Bijun felt that she still had some chance.
Both of them seemed very easy to talk to, and as long as Xie Lian had no objection, it would be fine.
Xie Lian felt guilty about himself, but now he thought that there was still a chance between them.
Thinking of this, Helian Bijun was in a good mood.
For a moment, even her gaze towards Xie Murong softened a little, as if she had really become her stepmother.
"Come, eat something too." She excitedly picked up a piece of mutton and placed it on the plate in front of Xie Murong. "Look at how skinny you are. How can you not eat more meat?"
Looking at the fragrant piece of mutton on the plate, Xie Murong couldn't help but feel flattered.
Ever since the incident with the Third Prince, almost no one except Feng Er liked her anymore.
Now that someone suddenly treated her so well, Xie Murong felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
"Thank you, sister!" she said with a smile.
Helian Bijun smiled and picked up another piece of meat, ready to give it to Li.
Whether it was her stepdaughter or daughter-in-law, she felt she had to treat them equally.
Inadvertently, she met Xie Mubai's gloomy gaze.
As soon as she saw that look, Helian Bijun felt as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on her head, and her fiery gaze immediately dimmed.
How could I forget him?
Helian Changjun said that this sickly prince is a soft-hearted person.
As long as Shen Wan said a word, he would definitely agree unconditionally, even if it meant going through mountains of swords and seas of fire.
Looking at Shen Wan again, every pore of that girl's body was filled with disgust for herself.
It is absolutely impossible to expect her not to say bad things about herself!
"Sister, hurry up and eat, or it'll get cold if you don't." Helian Changjun picked up another piece of mutton for her and urged, "Try it, Xiao Ranqiu's cooking skills are getting better and better."
Seeing him calling his name so disgustingly, Ran Qiu frowned subconsciously.
In other words, she has a good temper.
If it were someone else, he would have been thrown a bowl of hot soup in the face.
Except for Helian Bijun, everyone enjoyed the meal very much.
Especially Erbao and Da Niu, both of them have big bellies.
Plus they were wearing so many clothes, so when they walked they looked like two big rolling balls.
Seeing that everyone was full, Shen Wan suggested setting off fireworks on the street.
There's an open space opposite the post station, and it's absolutely safe there.
Shen Wan liked to watch fireworks, so Xie Mubai moved some over to set them off himself.
Seeing him busy, the big girl's mother came up to her and joked, "The prince really dotes on you!"
“You talk as if my seventh brother doesn’t favor someone.” Shen Wan rolled her eyes and smiled mischievously.
Big Girl's mother's face darkened.
She just turned around and wanted to leave, but was pulled by Shen Wan with a smile: “Good sister-in-law, I was wrong!”
"Please don't argue with me and watch the fireworks with me, okay?"
Although she was not very happy, Big Girl's mother still stopped.
It’s New Year’s Day, and she doesn’t want to spoil everyone’s fun.
"Mom, look, fireworks!" The big girl stared with her big watery eyes and screamed excitedly.
Everyone looked up and saw gorgeous fireworks quietly blooming in the heavy snow.
Looking at the beautiful fireworks, everyone had a happy smile on their face.
So what if I was exiled?
So what if it’s a remote place!
As long as the one you love most is there, that place is a paradise.
"Let's go, let them go too!" Wang Qi looked at it and said to Hu Dahai with a smile.
Without waiting for Hu Dahai to speak, Helian Changjun rushed out first.
Seeing that the women all liked watching fireworks, Hu Dahai and others joined in.
"Sister, this is for you!" Helian Changjun pointed at the fireworks in the sky and shouted.
Looking at the beautiful fireworks, Helian Bijun's eyes turned slightly red.
No matter how good Xie Lian is, how can he compare to this younger brother whom he raised?
Suddenly, she seemed to have figured out many things.
"Big girl, let me show you!" Erbao said excitedly when he saw this.
After hearing this, the girl nodded immediately.
"No!" Li immediately stopped them. "Children can't set off fireworks. It's too dangerous!"
After hearing this, the smile immediately froze on Erbao’s pretty little face.
Shen Wan took a look and took out a few boxes of small firecrackers from a box: "It's absolutely right to listen to Fourth Aunt. Children really can't set off fireworks."
"But these little firecrackers are quite safe. They will go off as long as you throw them on the ground from a distance."
Are there such firecrackers?
Aren’t firecrackers supposed to be lit with incense?
Erbao didn't know that Chen Wan had specially written down the recipe for the group of assassins on the mountain to make it.
Although these small firecrackers are not as pretty as fireworks, they are especially suitable for children to play with.
Although he didn't quite believe it, Erbao still took it.
He took out one and threw it forward tentatively.
Sure enough, the small firecracker exploded immediately.
"It's amazing!" The girl watched and screamed excitedly, "This is the first time I've seen firecrackers that can be set off without incense!"
Seeing that she liked it, Erbao quickly gave her most of the firecrackers.
Helian Changjun looked at it and couldn't help but smile: "This child is good, he will definitely be a loving wife when he grows up!"
Seeing him making fun of the two little ones, Mrs. Li looked at Da Niuniang with some uneasiness.
But Da Niuniang was not angry, she just looked up at the gorgeous fireworks in the sky.
It was already late at night and the snow was getting heavier.
Seeing this, Shen Wan asked everyone to stay overnight at the post station.
Helian Changjun was full of energy and pulled Helian Bibianjun to stay in the hall to celebrate the New Year.
He was pretending to stay up all night because he was afraid she would have wild thoughts.
The Great Wei had a custom of staying up all night to welcome the New Year. After Xie Mubai asked Black Hawk to close the door, he pulled Shen Wan to sit down at the table.
Ranqiu prepared a lot of melon seeds as snacks, and everyone chatted while cracking the seeds.
The girl was too young and started yawning before she had even eaten a few melon seeds.
Wang Qi saw her and carried her upstairs.
"What a kid!" Big Girl's mother said apologetically, "All he does all day is eat and sleep."
Shen Wan smiled and said, “I still have to grow taller.”
"You'd better go and take a look. I'm afraid Brother Qi won't be able to get her to sleep by himself."
Ever since she learned of Wang Qi's feelings, Da Niuniang tried not to be alone with him.
But now that things have come to this, she can only bite the bullet and go upstairs.
"You should go to bed soon." Seeing that Erbao's eyes were almost closed, Xie Mubai said calmly, "Your room and Fourth Aunt's room are still there. Just ask Black Hawk to bring you some quilts later."
He was quite satisfied with his nephew.
Erbao is not a bad person by nature, and with a little guidance he can get on the right track.
In addition, he is very scheming and calm in the face of difficulties. I believe he will achieve something in the future.
When Erbao heard this, he tried hard to open his eyes wide.
"Fifth Uncle, I'm not sleepy. I can stay up all night!" He said in a baby voice while sitting on a small stool by the stove.
He is a little man, he can't lose face!
Xie Mubai curled his lips: "Then have some tea."
After hearing this, Erbao quickly picked up the tea and drank it all.
Yes, he wants to drink tea. After drinking tea he won’t feel sleepy anymore!
Xie Mubai smiled, reached out to pick up the teapot, and brewed a cup of ginger tea for Shen Wan.
It’s too cold outside. If I don’t drink some hot ginger tea, what if this little woman gets frozen?
He was about to speak when he felt his shoulders suddenly sink.
