Chapter 224 Lu Wanyin’s Past
The jars of wine that Lu Wanyin brought out raised everyone's enthusiasm to a new level.
Everyone couldn't wait to sit in a circle around the pot.
Lu Wanyin's left and right sides were occupied by Xie Jingci and Song Jiuning respectively.
This made others who wanted to sit next to her sigh in regret.
Lu Wanyin looked around and saw Liuying standing next to the old lady, preparing food for her.
"Liuying, why are you standing? Sit down and eat."
Lu Wanyin pointed to the seat next to the old lady: "Sit down and we can serve the food."
Firefly must change this habit.
Liuying looked around embarrassedly, and seeing that almost everyone was seated, she carefully sat down next to the old lady.
The old lady had mentioned to Liuying countless times that she should sit down and have dinner with her, but this girl just wouldn't listen.
Now Lu Wanyin asked her to sit down with just one word.
It turns out that her granddaughter-in-law has a solution.
Lu Wanyin smiled with satisfaction and pushed two glasses of fruit wine towards the two of them: "Grandma, drink less of this fruit wine, it's good for your health. You and Liuying should try it too."
"Okay, okay."
The old lady happily pushed a cup to Liuying: "Girl, you are young, it won't be a problem if you drink more."
Liuying looked at the fruit wine in front of her, her nose sour: "Thank you, ma'am, thank you, old ma'am."
She felt that she was really happy.
Not only did the lady and the old lady never treat her as a servant, but they also thought of her when they had any good things.
"Sir, what's wrong with you, sir?"
Wu Fan's voice was particularly discordant at the dinner table.
Many people looked towards the source of the voice and saw Hou Yuanji holding his bowl with tears streaming down his face.
It’s so delicious.
It’s really delicious.
Maybe it was because the meal was free, but he felt that this hotpot was three times more delicious than the last time.
Seeing Hou Yuanji crying while trying to pick up food, Xuan Wu, who was sitting next to him, was speechless: "I said, can you leave me two chopsticks of mutton, I just cooked it, Wu Fan, why don't you just ignore him?"
Wu Fan: "Wow￥%..."
How can I care about Lord Hou?
Besides, with so much delicious food in front of him, he wanted to eat half of the table in one bite, so he had no time to care about anything else.
Woohoo, it’s so delicious.
He loves to shabu-shabu lotus roots and he loves to stew goose in an iron pot.
Xuan Wu looked at Wu Fan and Hou Yuanji, who looked like starving ghosts, and wished he could bury his face in the bowl. In the blink of an eye, he had finished two plates of food.
He also got anxious: "Are you two good-for-nothings?"
"Xuan Wu, if you say another word, your beloved tripe will be gone."
Xuan Qi danced with his chopsticks, leaving afterimages, and took a deep breath: "Shaha, Shaha, why is it so spicy?"
“It has to be this spicy to be flavorful.”
Xuan Yi picked up a piece of mutton and put it into his mouth with enjoyment: "Xuan Wu's knife skills are really good."
He has always been dissatisfied with anyone's cooking skills except his own.
This was a rare occasion for someone to be praised, so Xuan Wu was flattered and shouted that he wanted to clink glasses with Xuan Yi.
The drinks were strong and the atmosphere was great.
The hot steam rising from the hot pot floated up and was blocked by the coarse cloth on top.
The snowflakes grew bigger and bigger, but they didn't affect the people underneath at all.
Those who can eat spicy food sweat while eating around the hot pot, while those who can't eat spicy food will get their cheeks red after eating a bowl of goose and having a few sips of wine.
Song Jiuning, who was originally planning to chat with Lu Wanyin, couldn't stop eating once she started and had no time to talk at all.
The people in the distant government office were so cold that their hands and feet were numb and their eyes were almost glued to this side.
Only the first group of prisoners had already seen the reality clearly. They hid the hard steamed buns they were given in their arms to warm them, and nibbled on them in small bites while the aroma of rice carried in the wind.
I didn't dare look over there at all.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, everyone rushed to clean up.
Lu Wanyin was in a good mood and wanted to sweep the charcoal fire on the ground to digest the food, but someone pushed her away.
"Madam, this is all we have to do. Please don't come and take it away from us."
Lu Wanyin had no choice but to give up.
Looking around, except for the small woods where I had just picked up branches, the whole place was flat.
Rubbing her bloated belly, she simply walked towards the grove.
The creaking sounds overlapped, and Lu Wanyin exhaled a breath of hot air: "The general is also here for a walk."
"I'm not going for a walk. I'm coming to keep you company."
Xie Jingci took a quick step and walked side by side with Lu Wanyin.
The slender five fingers were spread out, and large snowflakes fell on the palms.
Xie Jingci watched the snowflakes slowly melt in his palm and gently held them: "Madam doesn't seem to like snow."
The snow this year is particularly heavy.
It is covered with a thick layer, pure and beautiful.
Along the way, the other women riding in the carriage couldn't help but lift the curtain to look at the snow outside.
Only Lu Wanyin was reading medical books the whole way and showed no interest at all.
Occasionally, I heard someone mention it outside the carriage, and there was no joy on his face, but rather trance and sadness.
Lu Wanyin was stunned for a moment and fell silent.
She looked up at the tree next to her.
The branches bent and stretched quietly, extending to Lu Wanyin's ears, and crossed into a net.
Lu Wanyin stepped on it and was lifted up to the top of the tree by the branches, sitting steadily at the highest point.
She turned her head and smiled at Xie Jingci below: "Would you like to come up and sit with us?"
"That's exactly what I meant."
Xie Jingci tiptoed up and floated up like a dark cloud.
He sat down next to Lu Wanyin. The familiar cold pine aroma disappeared, replaced by the spicy smell of hot pot.
Lu Wanyin couldn't help but want to laugh, and the heaviness in her heart caused by those two sentences was relieved a lot.
She tilted her head slightly and leaned on Xie Jingci's shoulder: "I don't like snow because I have lived in a strange world for more than ten years.
The snow there doesn't bring life to the coming year, but death; beneath the white snow lie piles of bones."
Xie Jingci tried to imagine the world in Lu Wanyin's words: "But the snow disaster has been going on for years."
Dasheng had also experienced an extremely cold winter in previous years, and countless people had frozen to death.
"That world isn't just plagued by snow; when it's cold, it can freeze people to death, and when it's hot, it can even scorch people dry.
There are special monsters there. Their skin and flesh are rotten and they like to eat all living things they can see. Even if only half of their body is left, they can still move around by dragging their skeletons.
The hearts of people in that world are even more terrifying than those here."
Lu Wanyin looked at the endless snowfield. Not far away, the people busy cleaning up the mess seemed to be the only life in the world.
The person next to him didn't say anything, but his slightly disordered breathing revealed that he was not in a peaceful mood.
Lu Wanyin's eyes were indifferent: "Why, General, do you not believe that such a world really exists, or do you think that I, who have been to another world, am scary?"
No wonder he didn't believe it.
Inexplicably traveled to another world.
Normal people won't believe it.
Xie Jingci moved his hand and gently wrapped her hand in his palm: "You have too many secrets. Although I have many doubts in my heart, I have never asked. Now that I think about it, it all makes sense."
"My wife is a goddess sent from heaven. She can transform things out of thin air and bring the dead back to life. So why can't she travel to other places?"
A low voice sounded in Lu Wanyin's ears, with an unconcealable smile.
"Ma'am, I'm so happy that you finally took the initiative to bring it up with me."
