The old guy came out of the kitchen with the chicken legs, took a look, and then shrank back with a snort.

Sister Jieyuhua was chattering so happily.

There are many slaves and servants, and the servants are very strange. Isn't the prince always at home? Why does it seem like we are seeing each other again after a long separation?

Lin Nanyan might have gone to remove her makeup and just ran out. She was still wearing Jiang Fan's clothes.

"Oh, Master, I miss Xiao Qi so much~ I want a hug!"

Jiang Fan quickly stopped. This girl was really making a fuss.

Fortunately, the Eight Bears of Black Mountain came forward with a silly smile and allowed Jiang Fan to escape.

While everyone was chatting and chatting, Gu Beiyan walked in with someone from outside. It looked like they were going shopping, with several people carrying large and small bags.

Seeing Jiang Fan, his face couldn't help but be happy, but the next moment it returned to his cold look.

Jiang Fan couldn't help but smile and said: "You are not happy to see me coming back. Come on, give me a smile!"

Gu Beiyan glared at him fiercely, turned away, and said something.

“Have BBQ tonight!”

Jiang Fan couldn't help but haha, it's winter, you really think about it.

After asking the servants carrying large and small bags, Mr. Jiang found out that Gu Beiyan was out shopping for new year's goods.

Unexpectedly, she actually remembered a festival that did not exist in this world and only she cared about.

I didn't see Ba ​​Qing, but I heard that she was out on business. During this time, she was always out, and I don't know what she was busy with.

Jiang Fan didn't ask deeply. He understood that Ba Qing had surrendered, and Yuwen Chengxin just said that the eight warehouses were full...

Jiang Fan naturally knew in his heart that he would have a good talk with him when she came back.

After a period of commotion, Jiang Fan was finally able to escape. He took three hot baths under the care of Sister Jie Yuhua, and slept until dusk before changing into fresh clothes.

Today's dinner was not held at the Plum Blossom Hall, but at the Lake House.

In the winter, even if you have a barbecue, you can't do it outdoors.

And today, because the prince is back, not only are barbecues, hot pots, and all kinds of stir-fried dishes prepared, many people are smiling and tidying up in the hall, waiting for the feast to be held in the evening.

Even the taciturn Lu Hanting was wearing a short apron and serving the dishes, which made Jiang Fan laugh.

He liked the lively feeling of a big family. Mr. Jiang felt itchy and simply rolled up his sleeves and joined the battle himself.

While he was busy, several important people from Lishan, including Gongshu Lao Patriarch and Gongshu Yu, also came after hearing the news. The old Patriarch was old and didn’t have to do anything. He was lying on the rocking chair with a teapot in his hand, drinking tea mouth to mouth.

While chatting with Jiang Fan who was chopping meat.

But there was no business to talk about, and on the first day back home, I didn’t bother to ruin the atmosphere.

What the old patriarch talked about the most was what happened when he and Bai Xiaocui were in Qingyun Mountain. Even now, he still complains about Jiang Fan.

As a junior and several generations behind him, Jiang Fan could only apologize.

After he had enough scolding, he started scolding Gongshu Yu again, saying that the design of the tables and chairs was still not good, and he would have to make a new set another day. Also, the colored glaze was not fired, so why were the windows covered with white paper? They had to replace them as soon as possible.

, I don’t want to do anything serious day by day...

Gongshu Yu had no choice but to do so. Because of his seniority, everyone had to listen to his criticism.

Even Gu Beiyan, who had a cold face, did not escape. He was scolded by the old patriarch. What was he doing with a straight face all day long? How would he get married in the future?

Gu Beiyan didn't dare to say anything, so she forced out a dry smile before the old patriarch let her go.

The only one the old man doesn't criticize is Sister Jieyuhua.

These two little girls are like two little quails, they are very cute and have sweet mouths. The first time they called Gongshu the old patriarch, they sweetened the old man's heart.

Seeing the two little girls busy, the old patriarch was very dissatisfied and asked why the children had to work with so many servants in the house.

Fortunately, the two little guys were doing it happily, and the old patriarch had no choice but to say nothing.

But he turned around and scolded that rough guy Xiong Wu who had just knocked over the plate...

As soon as night fell, everything was ready and the family dinner officially began.

Today, not only the family in Jiang Fan's eyes will have a good gathering, but all the servants in the mansion are also arranged to have a night off at the Plum Blossom Hall, where they can enjoy wine and meat.

So Mortal Residence is particularly lively today, almost like Chinese New Year.

Just when Jiang Fan was about to raise his wine glass and say a few words, the door of the small building in the center of the lake opened. Following a gust of wind and snow, a beautiful woman wearing a white cloak walked in.

Empress, Ying Wushuang.

Everyone was startled and hurriedly stood up to greet him.

The empress waved her hand and said, "There is no need to be restrained at the family banquet."

After closing the door and stepping forward, he unexpectedly gave the old patriarch Gongshu a junior salute first.

old people

I dare not take it seriously for a long time.

The empress smiled slightly: "Of course, there is no Your Majesty today, only Xiao Cui."

As soon as she said these words, the old patriarch laughed and stopped sitting up.

"Okay, okay. Xiaocui is fine. Come and sit down."

The old guy also came forward: "Yes, yes, granddaughter-in-law, today is a good day..."

The empress glared at him fiercely, causing him to swallow the rest of his mouth, and moved to Xiong Da's table with a sneer.

At this time, the empress casually took off her cloak, which surprised Jiang Fan. She was actually wearing a ready-made dress designed by herself, a light green one that was very loose and comfortable. She also had a cheap but exquisite small bracelet produced by Lishan on her wrist, which was fair and fair.

Hanging around his neck is the pocket watch.

He was surprised to be dressed like this, but he felt so comfortable.

Dazed for a moment, Jiang Fan raised the corner of his mouth, stood up and came closer, suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist: "Madam, sit next to me."

The whole hall fell silent with the sound of "Mrs."

This was the first time I heard him call him that. Although many people knew it well, they never expected that the master would be so bold today and openly call her "ma'am."

You haven’t drank yet?

However, what is surprising is that the empress did not refuse, but smiled faintly: "Okay."

The word "good" shocked everyone. This mere word or reply revealed so many problems. It's almost terrifying to think about it...

But seeing the empress being so casual made everyone sigh in relief, and then they were filled with surprise. They even admired their master to the point of admiration.

Just ask who else in the world?

After arranging the empress to sit down, Jiang Fan finally raised his wine glass and said loudly: "I'm not very good at talking, but today we are all family members. No one is allowed to be polite. Today there are no big ones, no small ones, no kings, no ministers, no officials.

No one, please let go of your belly, eat to death, drink to drunkenness, you are not allowed to leave until you finish the food, and you are not finished until you drink all the wine! Come on, drink up!"

His words immediately opened up the atmosphere, everyone was full of drinks, and the banquet started. Biquku

Meng Yi was the first to pick up a jar of wine and pat open the seal: "No one can compete with me today, I will take over the job of pouring the wine!"

Jiang Fan laughed and then looked at the empress: "Xiao Cui, did you come by yourself?"
