Chapter 141: Chapter 141: New Year's Eve

Zhao Qingya pinched the chopsticks with anger in her eyes, she couldn't taste the food.

Her love is strong, and seeing Liu Shi being suppressed, she was turned over by her pregnancy. Given the master's old love for Liu Shi, her situation is not optimistic.

Seeing that Zhao Qingya's emotions were so exposed that she could hardly hide it, Lu Xiang poured her a glass of fruit wine: "Aunt Zhao has a taste of this fruit wine, the empress gave me a jar, the last time I drank it was in the Qin Dudu's Mansion in Yangning City Here, the taste of the capital is sweeter and more mellow, and it is not easy to get drunk."

Zhao Qingya came back to her senses, and responded in a low voice: "Yes, I'll try it."

Liu Shi said at this time: "I really don't have a good taste, I can't drink the fruit wine rewarded by my mother."

Lu Youping smiled and said: "What's the rush, when you give birth to a son, you will have a lot of luck."

Liu Shi covered her mouth and smiled lightly, and gave Lu Youping a winking look: "Master, just coax this concubine."

The old lady coughed lightly, she didn't want to listen to Liu's words anymore, so she raised her wine glass and smiled at everyone: "Today's New Year's Eve, you can have a family reunion at will, this is our first year in the capital, I hope Every year in the future will be safe and smooth.”

Zhao Qingya took the opportunity to toast to the old lady and Lu Youping with a smile on her face: "I respect the old lady, master, I wish the old lady good health, and the master will improve to a higher level in the coming year."

"it is good."

The old lady and Lu Youping drank the wine in their glasses with smiles on their faces.

So everyone also stood up to toast.

"Sir, eat more food." Qiao Jingru brought food to Lu Chao.

Lu Chao smiled slightly at her: "Well, you can eat too."

Qiao Jingru was so happy that she couldn't find the southeast and northwest: "En."

After the meal, Lu Youping asked his servants to set off fireworks, and it was so lively.

Qiao Jingru held two firework sticks and handed one to Lu Xiang: "Xiangxiang, let's go together."

The old lady was too old to join in the fun, so she was helped back by Mother Wen.

Because Liu Shi was pregnant, even if she wanted to stay, she was coaxed back by Lu Youping.

Lu Xiao was the youngest and played the most vigorously, and he liked to join Lu Xiang's side, which made Aunt Yao frowned and stared at her son for a moment, afraid that Lu Xiang would accidentally hurt Lu Xiao.

"Third Sister, Third Sister, order me another one." Lu Xiao walked around Lu Xiang non-stop, Lu Xiang smiled at the corner of his mouth, and followed Lu Xiao without any resistance.

When Lu Xiao ran aside, Qiao Jingru said quietly: "Aunt Yao has a vicious mind, why are you being so kind to Lu Xiao?"

Lu Xiang smiled and said, "Children are innocent."

Lu Xiao was young and had never done anything to hurt her. Aunt Yao was vicious, but she would not bring her anger to Lu Xiao.

And she won't go out of her way to be nice to Lu Xiao, just ask her to light some fireworks, it's a matter of convenience.

Lu Qiao stood quietly by the side, looking at Qiao Jingru who had a good relationship with Lu Xiang, and Lu Xiao who surrounded Lu Xiang, she felt uncomfortable in every possible way.At this time, she missed Lu Yue very much. If Lu Yue was still there, she would not be isolated and look so alone.

"Xiao'er, let's go back." Aunt Yao finally couldn't help taking Lu Xiao away.

Lu Xiao was full of emotions, but Aunt Yao forcibly dragged her away. Before leaving, she still gave Lu Xiang a warning look, which made Qiao Jingru almost tilt her neck in anger.

"What does she mean by the look in her eyes that we want to kill Lu Xiao?"

"After all, there is only such a son, how can she not be nervous." Lu Xiang said indifferently: "By the way, where is the elder brother?"

Qiao Jingru smiled a little, and said, "I'm out of the house, and I said that my classmate invited him out for a drink or two."

Seeing the happiness in Qiao Jingru's eyes, Lu Xiang also smiled: "Sister-in-law and elder brother seem to have a good relationship recently."

Qiao Jingru blushed, looked at Lu Xiang and said, "Well, he seems to have let go of Zhao Qingya and treated me very gently." She was very satisfied.

"That's good." Lu Xiang smiled.

It's a good thing that Lu Chao is no longer attached to Zhao Qingya, otherwise his son would miss Lao Tzu's concubine, and it would be too ugly to make a fuss.Zhao Qingya is a smart person, since she has taken this path, she will not let Lu Chao become a stumbling block for her.

After playing around enough, Lu Xiang and Qiao Jingru went back to their yards respectively.

Lu Youping finally went to Yayuan.

He was very happy that Mrs. Liu was pregnant, but on New Year's Eve, it was more comfortable to have the warm jade and fragrance in his arms.

Qixia Courtyard, Lu Xiang’s room is burning high-quality silver charcoal, and the chill all over his body is dispelled as soon as he enters the room. Ah Man is pulling something in the stove with pliers, Wu Yue and Mu Jin are sitting and chatting Thinking about something, Hongyin was embroidering, raising her head from time to time to insert a sentence, and the room was filled with a touch of warmth.

Yun Zhe untied Lu Xiang's cloak and hung it on the shelf, and quickly sat by the stove to warm his hands.

"It's cold outside, Miss, drink a cup of brown sugar ginger tea to warm up." Wu Yue brought the cup to Lu Xiang, and then brought another cup to Yun Zhe.

Lu Xiang took a sip from the cup, then asked Ah Man, "What are you doing?"

Ah Man raised his head, grinning and showing two rows of white teeth: "My servant roasted sweet potatoes and chestnuts."

Lu Xiang sat down on a low stool, squeezed among a group of maids, and everyone sat around the stove.

"Is it ready?" Lu Xiang took Ah Man's pliers, pulled it out a few times and asked, she faintly smelled the fragrance wafting out.

Ah Man said: "It should take a while."

"Can you bake?"

Ah Man lifted her chest and proudly raised her head: "Of course, there is nothing a servant girl can't do."

After saying that, Wuyue pointed at Hongyin and immediately pierced her mercilessly: "Yes, I don't know how to embroider."

"I don't know how to cook." Yun Zhe said immediately.

The corner of Ah Man's mouth twitched, and he immediately rectified his name: "I can't hold a needle and thread, but I can hold a knife. I don't know how to cook, but I don't need cooking skills to bake sweet potatoes."

As she spoke, there was a crackling sound from the stove, as if responding to her words.

"Okay, you're amazing, don't burn it." Lu Xiang said with a smile.

Several people chatted and laughed to keep watch until midnight.

After midnight, the first day of the new year began, Yun Zhe went to the small kitchen to cook glutinous rice balls, and each of them ate a bowl with a smile on their faces before going to bed.

Hong Yin and Mu Jin lived in the same room, lying under the quilt, and Hong Yin's slightly excited voice sounded: "Mu Jin, I found that serving the third lady is different from the rules we learned in the past. It turns out that even if you are not a first-class maid , we are also qualified to enter Miss San's room, sit with her, eat, drink and laugh, this feeling is amazing."

Mu Jin nodded with a smile, but found that the red light was on and she couldn't see her movements, so she said: "Yes, what the third lady likes is our ability."

"Mujin, you are so good, Third Miss will definitely see your ability." Hong Yin comforted.

Mu Jin chuckled, and said: "As long as I act faithfully, I believe Miss San will not treat me badly, not to mention you, Yu Xiang is just an exception, we enter the house together as sisters, you will not ignore me."

"Of course." Hong Yin laughed.
