However, Xie Heng refused the man's request to return to Beijing immediately, as he was waiting for someone else.
What secrets are there in her and in him?
What's the connection?
What's more, the capital city is definitely not safe.
He is forcing me like this today, it will be difficult for me to have a good life when I return.
…
The brothers went to the mountains to play. It was snowing heavily and Xia Zhiliao wanted to go, but was collectively opposed by the Xia family.
Xia Zhiliao wanted to say that she was not that weak, but when she saw the heavy snow that was almost up to her waist, she felt that her words were not convincing.
Despite the heavy snow, the Xia family was still busy.
Old Mrs. Xia is so proud now. In the past, her family was poor, and her sons couldn't get married, so they lost face when they went out.
Now I can’t wait to go out in the wind and snow to show off.
Xia Jinheng also went hunting in the mountains. He said that in such weather, pheasants and rabbits would come out to look for food and it would be easy to hunt them. He was getting married soon and didn't want to rely on the little money from his family.
Xia Jinheng would go to the town to deliver popcorn regardless of the weather. He would get up earlier than the chickens to make money.
Xia Jinjun was also busy reading, but with his wife accompanying him by embroidering, he actually felt a sense of pleasure having her beauties around to keep him company.
The couple raised their eyes from time to time, and their eyes happened to meet. Xia Chen's face blushed, and Xia Jinjun's face also blushed, as if they had returned to the time when they first got married. No, there were even more different feelings than when they first got married.
Xia Zhiliao had eaten enough dog food, and when she saw Uncle Wu quietly sweeping the snow in the yard, she went out.
Compared to the other two uncles, this fifth uncle speaks very little and has a low presence at home. Most of the time he doesn't say a word.
The fifth uncle in the novel poisoned the royal heir, who is also the male protagonist in the novel. The crime was discovered by the female protagonist, and he took all the consequences alone. The old emperor ordered that his eyes be gouged out, his tongue be cut off, and he was turned into a human pig. He died a miserable death.
"Cicada, it's so cold, why don't you stay indoors? Won't you feel cold if you come out?"
Xia Zhiliao shook his head. How could such a gentle and considerate uncle Wu not end up like that?
[It would be a shame not to make a snowman in such a heavy snow! 】
Although Xia Zhiliao did not live in the south in his previous life, he lived very close to the south, and it rarely snowed so heavily.
She really feels like a child right now!
Xia Jinqing's face changed. This was not the first time he heard his niece's voice. His second brother was right. He had been a little crazy reading those books last night.
"Zhiliao, do you want to build a snowman?" Xia Jinqing said a little more to the little girl.
Xia Zhiliao nodded vigorously, walked over with a smile, and made a big ball with clean snow.
Xia Jinqing also laughed. Her auditory hallucination was quite interesting. It was as if Xiao Zhiliao had really spoken. The key was that he could still understand her thoughts.
The uncle and nephew, one was taciturn and the other was speechless, but they were having a lot of fun. Somehow they started having snowball fights and running around the yard.
Xia Zhiliao rolled a big snowball and threw it hard at his fifth uncle, but Xia Jinqing dodged quickly. Unfortunately, Xia Jinxiu had just gone out and stretched, so the snowball happened to hit her.
[It’s over, it’s over, little aunt, I really didn’t mean it. ]
Xia Zhiliao quickly ran over to help wipe the blood off her body.
She thought that this time she must have pissed off her aunt.
Xia Jinxiu's first reaction was to curse, but when she saw her niece's frightened look, she held it back.
"Oh, that's enough, it's just some snow." Xia Jinxiu held back her heartache. This was the new cotton-padded jacket she made last year, but compared to her little niece, nothing else mattered.
[My aunt is not angry with me? ]
Xia Jinxiu sneered, "Look at you, I'm your aunt, not a man-eating tigress, go and have fun."
[No way, is my aunt a goddess from heaven? How can she be so reasonable? This is too good! ]
Xia Jinxiu lost all her temper after being praised, but suddenly she remembered something, "Wait!"
Xia Zhiliao's body stiffened, [Oh no, it's too early to say that, my aunt is going to lose her temper! ]
"Fifth brother, come here too and help me think about it. Mother asked me to prepare the dishes for Third Brother's banquet. I...how could I? I just made it casually that day, and it was just one dish. Mother really trusted me too much. It was a banquet, and there had to be more than a dozen dishes on the table!"
Xia Jinqing smiled awkwardly, "Jinxiu, this... I don't understand either."
Xia Jinxiu sighed, "I don't understand. Think about it. This is too insincere."
[Xi Mian? Isn't that a big feast in the countryside? I love it, such as four-happiness meatballs and pork elbows. Everything is delicious.]
Xia Jinxiu cleared her throat, "Zhi Liao, what do you want to eat? Why don't you write it down for your aunt?"
[Me? Does my aunt care about me so much? Does she cook whatever I want to eat? Does the whole family only want me to come? ]
Xia Zhiliao felt unprecedented love.
Xia Jinxiu held her hand and said, "Come on, go get some paper and pen from your father. You are the lucky gift to our family. I can make whatever you want to eat so that I can prepare it for you!"
Seeing that the little girl had an idea, Xia Jinxiu felt that she was 70% sure about the matter.
Xia Jinjun had the same doubts after hearing what her sister said, "Jinxiu, you are kidding, right? You are just a little kid, you can make whatever he wants to eat? Is that okay?"
"Why not? When we hold a banquet, we are the main family. Whatever we cook, they eat. Of course, we are the most important."
Xia Zhiliao nodded happily, then quickly wrote down a dozen dishes on a piece of white paper, both meat and vegetarian, many of which the Xia family had never heard of.
"With so much meat, isn't that a loss?" Xia Jinjun said.
When other people hold a banquet, it’s good enough to have two meat dishes. How can we, as country folk, have so much money?
Xia Jinxiu had also eaten before and nodded slightly, but the words had already been said, and she felt it was not good to make her niece sad, so she found an excuse, "Second brother, the Cheng family doesn't even want a betrothal gift. If our family's banquet is too stingy, people will think there's something wrong with our family."
Xia Jinjun nodded, which made some sense. "But... I have never even heard of these dishes. Could it be that Zhiliao is just writing nonsense?"
[I'm not writing this nonsense, these dishes are delicious. If my aunt can cook all of these dishes, everyone will have to ask my aunt to help them with banquets in the future! A one-stop banquet service is very profitable! ]
Xia Jinxiu cleared her throat. She also wanted to make money.
"Just write whatever you want, and we'll cook it, but... I have to figure out how to make this dish!"
[No need to think about it, little aunt, I can do it. ]
Xia Zhiliao quickly wrote down the instructions, filling a large piece of straw paper with dense words, which shocked the brother and sister.
