Chapter 924 Respect My Husband!
She wanted to be more loyal and responsible. She was often away from home, and the affairs of Fengyang Palace had to rely on the servants to do their work.
At night, Erya, Sanya, and the little fat guy also came to stay up with Jiang Lianzhu and her family to celebrate the New Year together.
The younger ones were playing chess, and some were writing.
The three snow wolves were tired from having fun and lay down beside the charcoal fire to take a nap.
Xue San tasted better. From time to time, he would covet the roasted chestnuts in Jiang Lianzhu's hand. He would bite them without caring about the burn, leaving a mouthful of crumbs with every bite.
At midnight, the sound of firecrackers rang out all over the capital.
New Year is here!
Jiang Lianzhu prepared fireworks for the children and went out to set off firecrackers and fireworks.
As soon as I went out, I found that it was snowing lightly and the roof was covered with a layer of white.
The palace maids lined up to wish Jiang Lianzhu and the others a happy new year, in a lively atmosphere filled with laughter and joy.
Jiang Lianzhu sighed for a long time, hoping that such happy times could exist every year.
She glanced and saw Erya beside her smiling brightly, but as she smiled, she seemed to become depressed again.
Jiang Lianzhu asked, "Are you homesick, Erya?"
Erya quickly replied, "Not really. I just feel that my mother and younger sister will be lonely this year since they are spending the New Year at home... I was wondering if I could bring my mother and younger sister to stay in the capital for a few days next year. I could go back and see them on New Year's Eve."
She is now the head maid of the palace, and has a good monthly salary. It is financially possible for her to rent a small house in the capital for her mother and younger sister to live in.
And my eldest sister’s monthly salary can all be saved.
There are rewards from their masters from time to time. The two sisters are not short of money now, but they miss their mother a little.
After saying what she was thinking, Erya came to her senses, "My Lady Princess, I lost my composure for a moment and said the wrong thing..."
"Er Ya, you're right. You've lived a good life, and you haven't forgotten your mother and younger sister. That's a good quality, and it shows you don't forget your roots. You don't have a home in Wangjia Village, so why not have your mother and the others come live in the capital? It would be nice for the whole family to be together. Your mother is too meticulous, and the palace is short of staff. Let her come in to help, and you can eat three meals a day together."
Erya was terrified, "That won't work. My mother still has to help you look after the house in Wangjia Village."
Jiang Lianzhu smiled and said, "It's okay. I can ask the village head uncle to help me look after the house. But now, no one dares to touch my house."
Erya's eyes suddenly filled with tears.
After thinking about it, it was unlucky to shed tears in the New Year, so he wiped his tears away.
"Thank you, Princess! Princess, you are so kind."
The little fat boy happened to pass by at this time. He went into the house to get some incense so that he could go set off fireworks with Erbao and Nanbao.
Jiang Lianzhu called him, "Little Fatty, it's New Year's Day. Do you miss home? Do you want to go back and visit your family? I can give you a holiday..."
The little fat boy thought something was wrong when he heard what Jiang Lianzhu said.
He quickly shook his head, "No, wherever my brother Erbao is is my home! The princess is my elder, I don't want to go anywhere else."
After saying that, he ran away.
This is a fat man whose movements are becoming more and more slippery.
Very flexible!
"Dong-dong-dong-dong"
The sound of ancient bells came from the palace and temple in the distance. It was the New Year's bell.
It resounded throughout the capital of Da'an Kingdom.
Let everyone hear it and feel at ease.
This year, at this moment, the country of Da'an is peaceful and the people are safe, with no worries about food and clothing.
***
On the top of a distant and unknown mountain.
The place is shrouded in clouds and mist, and the top is covered with snow, as if it is the pinnacle of the Zhongyuan Continent.
The sky was pure ocean blue.
Seems to be within easy reach.
Due to the climatic conditions, the top of the mountain is covered with dry rocks and little vegetation. The perennial mountain wind has weathered the rocks into the shape of stacked rocks. Sometimes you can see large green snow lotus flowers between the cracks in the mountains.
On the top of the mountain, a tall and slender man dressed in a dark suit stood there with an expressionless face.
After a while, he struck the sky above his head with his palm, and ripples seemed to appear in the sky.
A hint of mockery flashed across the man's handsome face. "Last time, did godfather tear the space apart from here?"
This man is none other than Silangjun!
Silangjun struck out with two palms again, and ripples appeared in the sky.
However, it was just ripples.
He did not give up and fought from dawn to dusk, but still failed to open the space.
He laughed at himself, "My realm is still too low. It seems that I must be at the ninth realm to tear the space apart, even if I find the space node."
Seeing that it was getting dark, Silangjun used his luck and lightness skills to float down the mountain.
It takes effort to go up the mountain, but it is easy and comfortable to go down the mountain, like a wild swallow flying down, gracefully and quickly.
Soon we reached the foot of the mountain.
There were several subordinates in black waiting below.
"Fourth Young Master, today is New Year's Eve. The Third Princess is hosting a reunion banquet in the town ahead and invited us to join her. Shall we go?"
Silangjun frowned, "Why did she follow?"
The subordinate replied, "She might be using snakes. We found her following us before, and we persuaded her to leave. We haven't seen her since. Today, after you reached the top of the mountain, she suddenly appeared and said that we were waiting for you to eat New Year's Eve dinner."
"No." Silangjun refused decisively.
Turn around and walk in the opposite direction.
"Okay, let's go to the woods to hunt some wild game, and also get some braised food, liquor, and white flour buns, and use that as our New Year's Eve dinner." The subordinates actively made arrangements.
They all knew their master's temper and expected that Si Langjun would not go.
Therefore, I made preparations in advance and bought several kilograms of braised beef, braised pig's trotters, braised pig's head, etc. In this remote place, there is no good wine, only Shaodaozi. I filled the wine flask I carried with me and made do with it. I also bought a large bag of white flour buns. They might get cold, so I would roast them over a fire in the wild and sprinkle some seasoning on them. They would be very fragrant.
Hunt some wild game and grill it, then catch some fresh fish and make soup.
This New Year’s Eve dinner is not bad.
"Okay. Let's go after eating." Silangjun agreed.
The group galloped, and half an hour later, they were dozens of miles away from the mountain they had been to before.
We came to a sheltered cave and started to make a fire to cook the New Year’s Eve dinner.
There were not many people accompanying him, just five or six good fighters.
Everyone had a different division of labor: some collected firewood to make a fire, some went out to fish, and some hunted game.
They were all experienced, and it didn't take long for them to get things done.
The fragrance spreads for miles.
Silangjun held a wine glass in his hand, chewed a piece of meat, and looked into the distance in the direction of Da'an Kingdom.
Suddenly, he thrust the wine glass into the air, as if clinking glasses with someone from a distance, and lowered his head to drink it in one gulp.
Looking up at the sky again, there was no moon, and the cold wind was blowing, carrying snow seeds. I couldn't help but laugh.
"Eat! Drink! You've been with me for another year. Let's celebrate this bond and friendship!"
"Thank you, sir! Cheers! We are all rootless duckweed, orphans unwanted by anyone. It is a blessing for us to be able to follow you, have meat to eat, and do great things. We toast to you, sir!"
