Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

Chapter 596 One-year-old addition to the sound of firecrackers
High gates and deep courtyards are always strictly hierarchical and serious, and even the excitement is bleak.

The three of them walked back all the way, passing by many dignified officials or merchants' homes. Red lanterns were hung on their gates uniformly, and the red light dyed the snow on the ground into a bright red.

The servants and maidservants were still busy in and out in thin clothes, or they were busy clearing the snow, or they were busy picking up relatives and friends of the master, some were sweating profusely from the heat, but their faces were full of exhaustion Fake laugh.

The Xue residence is different, with such a heavy snowfall, no one outside clears the snow, and no one hangs the lanterns, it is much colder than those high gates and deep courtyards, it is solid silence.

Lifting the curtain of the car, Xue Lince carefully helped Tang Luoyu out of the carriage, then carefully protected her waist and put his arms around her shoulders, only then did he realize that the sky was covered with snowflakes at some point.

"Why so quiet?"

Tang Luoyu was also a little puzzled, and exchanged a glance with Xue Lince.

Before the words were finished, the front door was suddenly opened with a "squeak", and a figure of a little girl came out bouncing around. She was startled when she saw a group of three people standing at the door like outsiders.

"Oh," she exclaimed, "my lord and miss are back, why is there no movement at all!"

As she said that, she ran into the house again, "I'll go tell Sister Baoqin right now! Everyone is waiting for you to come back in the hall!"

Xue Lince didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't rush to tell your elder sister Baoqin, hurry up and get the cloak and umbrella, your lady is still standing in the snow."

"Hey! It's so good! I forget it when I'm happy!"

The little girl ran into the house while answering, Xue Lince helped Tang Luoyu up the stairs carefully, and vaguely heard the voice of the girl walking around the streets.

"Master! Madam! Mr. Ke! Mr. Chai! Miss and Your Excellency are back!"

Her voice was high-pitched, thin, and crisp, as if a string of small firecrackers had been set off. The quiet courtyard seemed to be awakened suddenly, and it immediately became lively, as if a drop of water fell into the oil pan.

Walking into the courtyard, the three of them realized that the house was brightly lit. The courtyard was covered with golden and red lanterns, and the ground was covered with a thin layer of snow. It was probably cleaned before, and now it has piled up again.

The maids and servants finally got some free time, and now they are gathering together in the house to cook hot pot and eat, and in the hall, relatives and friends gather together, chatting or playing chess, noisy, and they are pushed open and closed At the gate of the courtyard, frost and snow wrapped in warm heat waves rushed to the cheeks, which was almost completely different from the cold and quiet outside.

"Oh, why did you come back so late?" Yun Tan was the first to greet her, and put a small heater in Tang Luoyu's hand, "Hurry up, don't freeze."

The rest of the people also came out one after another, and Ke Ran's eagerness to join in the fun came out again, and she stuck to Xue Tang and his wife, opening her mouth like a sparrow in a meeting, chattering endlessly.

"How was the banquet? What did you eat? Did you let Luo Yu drink?"

Surrounded by everyone, the three of them walked towards the hall. As soon as they entered the room, a warm wave rushed towards them, covering their whole bodies. Everyone sat back to their original positions, with gentle smiles on their faces.

Xue Lince asked half funny and half jokingly: "Why did you close the gates? The other house is busy. I thought you were all asleep."

"Our relatives and friends were all present, and no one else came over. It was very cold in the snow, so I just closed the door and let the servants go to rest." Tang Yue stroked his beard and laughed, "Anyway, the snow is sweeping away. If you can’t clean it, you simply don’t clean it.”

"He," Yun Tan clapped his hands helplessly, but his face was full of smiles, "Do some perfunctory work, I think you will come back later, it will be full of snow outside, afraid that Luo Yu will fall, So I sent a girl to scan it, but when I opened the door, I saw you coming back, what do you think is a coincidence?"

Everyone laughed, and the room was full of cheerful air.

"Then why don't you hang two lanterns at the gate?" Tang Luoyu hugged the stove while leaning on Xue Lince's shoulder, "I see that other people's houses are hanging up."

"What's so good about that?" Guan Yue curled her lips, "It's red but not autumnal, and it looked scary on the ground in the middle of the night, but it hung up this morning, and I looked at it to scare people, so I simply took it down again. "

Everyone laughed again.

There was a huge fireplace in the center of the hall, and the small windows on the west and east sides were opened halfway, allowing the heat to flow and make it just right.

Tang Luoyu was covered with a thin quilt, and felt relaxed. He didn't care about the etiquette of Miss Qianjin for a while, so he simply wrapped himself with the quilt from head to toe, crossed his legs, sat comfortably on the chair, and made today's What he saw and heard in the palace is detailed one by one.

Everyone was chatting while nibbling melon seeds, and when they heard that the emperor recognized the granddaughter of the royal family who was two years younger than him as a righteous daughter, they also had a very meaningful expression on their faces.

"The granddaughter of the Wang family is only fourteen or fifteen years old," Ke Ying asked aloud, "She is about to make peace with a foreign country at such a young age, alas."

Chen Weidai stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and the husband and wife met each other's eyes.

Tang Luoyu still found it inconceivable, and murmured: "If it's a marriage, then the emperor and Xiao... Your Highness Xianbei will be Weng's son-in-law. It's really strange that this son-in-law is even older than my father-in-law."

"There is no way around it. Marriage also depends on seniority. Since the granddaughter of the Wang family cannot be the eldest princess, she can only be the righteous daughter. It is also common for the royal family and relatives to be the younger generation."

Jing Shan took over the conversation, he was always taciturn during the party, and he would only speak when discussing important matters. Everyone was attracted by his voice, and when they looked back, they saw that he was also eating melon seeds. The brush fell on him.

After a short silence, everyone continued chatting for a while, Guan Yue and Huo Yang went to cut melons and fruits to distribute, and while they were eating, Yun Tan suddenly slapped his forehead.

"Oh, I'm afraid the time is coming!"

Everyone was startled, and before they could ask any questions, they suddenly heard crackling sounds in the streets and alleys at the same time. It turned out that the midnight had passed, and everyone had already stepped into the threshold of the New Year.

The sound of firecrackers didn't stop at the beginning, and the streets and alleys quickly responded as if they were summoned. Soon, the sound of firecrackers was endless, and it was very lively.

Guan Yue opened the window, and saw huge fireworks rising from the direction of the palace. The fireworks tore apart the sky, illuminating a piece of night sky, and then fell like meteors with their tails. It was gorgeous, colorful, and very lively.

"Hurry up," the younger generation's emotions were quickly ignited, one by one more excited, "It's the New Year, let's go to the door and set off firecrackers, just wait for this moment!"
