Chapter 272 No Way! This is Crazy!
The servants were in a dilemma. If they took action, they were hindered by the old marquis's presence; if they didn't, they were afraid that Madam Zhou would punish them.
At this point, the old marquis came to his senses. "There's no need for you to make a big fuss, you shrew! You jealous woman! We can't live like this anymore. Let's just leave."
"Go, go, and never come back..."
The old marquis, along with Yao, his children and grandchildren, left the Qingning Marquisate in a grand procession.
A family reunion dinner turned out like this.
Under normal circumstances, Mrs. Zhou would have lost her temper and overturned all the food on the table, but today her son was there, so she endured it again and again.
"Son, let's eat it together. Let him die outside."
Liao Jiu agreed.
With everything going on like this and everyone so angry, how could they eat? They just ate a few bites quickly and went back to the yard.
Liao Jiu was still thinking about the matter between Wang Laowu and Asheng. So, was Jiang Lianzhu his nominal sister-in-law?
Well, even if the elder brother dies, there is still a saying that the elder brother should take care of his sister-in-law, which is not too inconsistent.
He instantly gave himself a way out.
He was not full at the reunion dinner, and he thought that at this moment, if Jiang Lianzhu and her family were having a lively and happy meal.
He didn’t know what Jiang Lianzhu’s specialties were, but no matter what dish it was, as long as it was made by her, he thought it was especially delicious.
We separated without realizing it, and it’s been over a month, but it seems like it was just yesterday.
The time we spent together is still vivid in my mind.
Liao Jiu didn't know what he was thinking, but for some unknown reason, he blew a long whistle.
In the dark night sky of the capital, a large golden eagle quietly flew in from outside the city. It flew very high and no one noticed it. It flew directly to the Baiyuan Courtyard of the Qingning Marquis Mansion where Liao Jiu lived.
While waiting, Liao Jiu blocked all the servants.
Chengfeng landed quietly and rubbed Liao Jiu's shoulder affectionately.
"good!"
He and it had an agreement that it must avoid being seen in the capital and not howl at will. He would only call it at night, and when he called it, it could not respond, but could just come to the sound of his whistle.
Chengfeng has achieved all of these.
"Do you miss Hayate? Should we go back and see them now?"
Chengfeng looked confused.
I wanted to, but it was so late. How could I fly? I couldn't see!
Liao Jiu took out two large night-shining pearls from his sleeves and said, "I'll use the night-shining pearls to illuminate you. Can you fly? They're so bright..."
The night pearl is the size of a fist, of high quality, and emits bright and soft light. It illuminates a much wider area and is much brighter than the lanterns in the yard or on the corridor.
One was already very bright, and he had two, lighting up almost the entire yard.
In addition, it has been snowing for the past few days, and the snow on the ground has not melted, so the sky is still bright and not completely dark.
Chengfeng was a little excited. It flapped its wings happily, motioned Liao Jiu to get on its back, and started to move.
At this time, the left and right commanders arrived in time.
"Master, where are you going?" They also came over after hearing Liao Jiu's whistle.
Liao Jiu said, "Nothing, just go for a stroll, take a walk, it's too stuffy in the house, I'll be back soon."
After saying that, she strung the night pearls with a thread and hung them around Chengfeng's neck, then put on a fur cloak. After thinking for a while, she took the small golden hand-warming stove given by the emperor in her hands, and then climbed onto Chengfeng's back.
Whistling away.
Xiang Zuo and Xiang You looked up at the sky with a thoughtful expression.
"It's snowing, New Year's Eve, and the master is out for a walk with a hand warmer? Has the master ever been such a leisurely and elegant person?"
"This doesn't feel like a ride. You don't have to be so impatient for a ride. This feels more like meeting a lover..."
Having said that, the two of them suddenly thought of something and looked at each other.
At the same time, he said, "No way! That's crazy!"
***
There was charcoal burning in the room and it was very warm.
Everyone gathered around the big charcoal brazier, playing, eating and drinking.
The table was filled with snacks, including peanuts, melon seeds, sesame seeds, rice candy, chocolate, beef jerky, milk tablets, osmanthus cake, red date cakes and so on.
Jiang Lianzhu also made two kinds of fruit tea.
There is a custom of staying up all night on New Year's Eve. Except for Dabao who is still reading, Jiang Lianzhu, Jiang Chengshi, Erbao and Nanbao play cards. Whoever loses has a circle drawn on his face.
Jiang Chengshi and Nanbao’s little faces were almost covered with paintings.
It was really hard to keep going, so Nanbao stopped letting Dabao read and insisted on asking Dabao to help her look at the cards and teach her how to play. Only then did she start to stop losing.
They played until midnight and the kids were so sleepy that they couldn't stand it any longer. Jiang Cheng was old and also dozed off.
Jiang Lianzhu asked them all to go back to their rooms and sleep, and she stayed alone to celebrate the New Year.
If there was a man in charge at home, this should be his job. Now that the scumbag has run away, she can only do it herself.
After celebrating the New Year, the whole family, young and old, will be healthy and everything will go smoothly next year.
Three snow wolves were also lying in the main room, napping comfortably.
It's freezing outside and the temperature is below zero, but there is warm charcoal in the house, so they will definitely prefer to stay inside and sleep.
Although they are not particularly afraid of the cold, there is no need to stay in a warm place and suffer the cold.
The charcoal fire flickered, and Jiang Lianzhu added some more to make the charcoal fire burn even more vigorously.
Then, since I had nothing to do anyway, I put two sweet potatoes in to roast and had a delicious roasted sweet potato snack later.
I grabbed a handful of wild chestnuts and roasted them all over the shallow fire area outside.
In this weather, eating roasted sweet potatoes and roasted chestnuts is a perfect match.
After a while, the sweet potatoes began to emit fragrance and the chestnuts were ripe.
Jiang Lianzhu started eating chestnuts. Wild chestnuts are not big, but they are fragrant and glutinous. Once they enter her mouth, she feels less sleepy.
Xue San came over and asked for food again.
Jiang Lianzhu threw two on the ground and said, "Bite them open and eat the flesh inside..."
Xue San did as he was told, but the chestnuts were too small. Either his teeth couldn't bite them, or they broke into pieces when he bit them. He cried out in panic.
Jiang Lianzhu looked at it and wanted to laugh, complaining, "You guy, you can eat anything. Look at your two brothers, they are not interested in anything else except meat. But you, on the other hand, want to eat everything we eat. Do you think you are a human being? Or are you the reincarnation of a glutton in your previous life?"
This is what I ate seafood with last time.
Xue Da and Xue Er didn't even bother to smell it, only Xue San, who was an omnivore and would eat a few bites of anything.
Xue San was not convinced and continued to go against Xiao Banli!
He took another bite, and it broke into pieces with a crack. The flesh was broken into pieces, and he simply swallowed the chestnut shell together.
After eating, he wagged his tail at Jiang Lianzhu, signaling for more.
