Chapter 307 New Year's Day



After lunch, several people went for a walk on the street. Wen Jing and Mu Siqing were a little worried at first, but they couldn't bear to see the expectant look in their wives' eyes.

Before leaving, Murong Shu asked the coachman to go to Zhuangyuan's Mansion to pick up Song Yanran first. She knew that Song Yanran must be feeling suffocated in the mansion.

Just as she expected, Song Yanran was so happy when she heard that they could go out and play, and she urged everyone to set off quickly on the spot.

Because Yueyue and Mu Siyu like to be lively, Murong Shu asked Mu Siyuan and Mu Sijin to accompany them to the main street to play. Mu Siyuan also brought Cheng Zhi with him today.

Wen Jing, Han Xu and Mu Siqing took the three pregnant women to the Fuqilai Hotpot Restaurant.

The restaurant is very busy today. The weather is perfect for eating hotpot. Moreover, many young people are out for a small gathering and play, so eating hotpot is the most suitable choice.

The most important thing is that Murong Shu and Jun Mingyue haven't been here for a long time, especially Jun Mingyue who has to mention it every day in front of Mu Siqing.

Fuqilai came to work in the store today and got three times the salary, so the store was fully staffed, and Erzhu originally planned to let everyone take turns, but no one wanted to.

It was not yet time for dinner when Murong Shu arrived, but some people had already arrived in the restaurant early.

Erzhu was very happy when he saw Murong Shu, "Miss, you are here."

"I came to see you all and eat hotpot. I've been very busy lately. Thank you and everyone for your hard work." Murong Shu knew that Erzhu was the one who had to rely on him during this period of time.

"Miss, what are you talking about? No one in the whole capital is as lucky as us to get paid as much as we do. We have a good employer and we all work voluntarily. Miss, you don't know that I originally wanted them to take turns to rest, but they all got angry with me."

"Boss, you're here. Everyone come out quickly. The boss is here." A lively waiter shouted happily when he saw Murong Shu and his group coming.

When the people who were working heard that the boss was coming, they all ran out. Everyone rushed to say New Year's greetings. Murong Shu asked Xiaotao to give everyone a big red envelope.

Everyone became even happier when they heard that there would be a reward from the boss, especially the few people who had been in Fengling Pavilion before, their eyes were red.

Murong Shu understood their feelings. It was a great blessing for them to have had such a past and to be able to live freely and be respected in this era.

"Today, I want to listen to some festive music. Who can play it? If you play well, there will be rewards." Murong Shu said this deliberately to divert their attention.

"I can, I can. I've been learning it recently and I'd like to play it for my host." One of the musicians who usually performs the show raised his hand actively.

"In that case, I will give you an assessment today. My husband Wen Jing, my second brother Mu Siqing, my cousin-in-law Han Xu, the princess and Miss Song are all here. How about we give you a score together?"

Murong Shu just wanted to find a reason to encourage everyone, and also wanted to see everyone's recent progress.

When they heard that there would be a performance competition, everyone instantly became excited, and those who wanted to participate went downstairs to prepare.

Murong Shu and his companions came to the private room which was most suitable for watching the competition performance and sat down. Murong Shu first asked Xiao Tao to find Er Zhu to get silver as a reward for everyone.

Xiaotao was very happy and ran down the stairs to find her brother.

"Brother, give me some silver and I will distribute it to everyone later." Xiaotao asked Erzhu for silver directly.

"Sister, why did you come down? I can take care of these small things. Please take good care of the young lady!" Erzhu would always give Xiaotao some instructions every time he saw her, fearing that his sister would neglect the young lady.

"Brother, you don't understand. When brother-in-law is here, there is no need for me. Brother-in-law takes care of all the young lady's affairs himself." As long as Wen Jing is around, Xiao Tao feels like a waste.

Although Erzhu was talking about his sister, his hands did not stop at all and he quickly prepared the silver.

"Brother, please go with me." Xiaotao decided to let her brother go with her.

"Wait a minute and let the lady distribute it herself." Erzhu thought that Murong Shu would distribute it to everyone personally.

"Brother, I'm telling you in secret, the young lady is pregnant. Don't bother her with these things. Let's help her get rid of the pregnancy." Xiaotao happily shared the news of her young lady's pregnancy with her brother, and Erzhu was very happy to hear it.

Then Erzhu took Xiaotao to give red envelopes to everyone.

In the private room upstairs.

Jun Mingyue has been bored staying at home for so many days. Today, she can finally come and eat hotpot. She must order a lot.

"Give me a portion of both the sour soup pot and the spicy hot pot. This princess wants to eat to her heart's content today."

"Yue'er, what other flavors do you want to eat? I'll order some." When Mu Siqing heard that Jun Mingyue ordered two flavors of soup base, he knew that she was greedy. Worried that she wouldn't be able to eat enough, he prepared to let her choose one she liked. Anyway, she could eat whatever she wanted.

"Husband, won't you choose one?" Jun Mingyue was a little tempted. She knew that Mu Siqing was not picky about food, so in this way she could order a flavor she liked.

"No need to choose. I like everything Yue'er likes." Mu Siqing poured a glass of water for Jun Mingyue lovingly and received Jun Mingyue's thanks.

"How about we add a tomato pot? Jun Mingyue also likes tomato pot very much.

"Okay, as long as Yue'er likes it, it's good. Yue'er has worked hard this year, and it will be even harder next time. As long as Yue'er likes to eat it, your husband will like it.

Murong Shu and Wen Jing were also discussing how to choose the soup base.

Song Yanran's plan was relatively simple. She directly chose the sour soup base and specifically asked the waiter to ask the chef to make it sour.

Han Xu felt a toothache when he heard his wife's so-called sour request.

Murong Shu looked at Han Xu's expression and guessed something. Thinking of this, Murong Shu smiled secretly.

Several people quickly chose the soup base, and the competition downstairs was almost ready.

As soon as the soup base and hot pot dishes came up, the women started to eat happily, especially Jun Mingyue. Seeing his wife enjoying the meal, Mu Siqing's mood also improved a little.

In the end, the three of them just ate hotpot, and the assessment downstairs finally fell on the men, but they were not annoyed at all, as they spoiled their own wives.

So they finished eating the hot pot they had longed for, and then the competition downstairs began. Murong Shu gave Wen Jing a look, and Wen Jing immediately understood.

After several rounds of competition, the best song was finally selected. Murong Shu personally gave out the prize money, and everyone was very happy.

Only after they had eaten and drunk their fill and had fun in Fuqilai did they feel willing to return home.

On the way back, everyone was very happy. Song Yanran was the first one to see them off, and they were the closest.

On the way back in the carriage, Wen Jing hugged Murong Shu and said, "Shu'er, you've worked hard today. Let's go back early.

"Husband, you said this morning that you had something to tell me in the evening. What is it?"

Murong Shu was extremely curious, she wanted to know so badly.
