Chapter 97 97 New Year

The Minister of Rites' Mansion.

After reading his father's letter, Lu Chengda looked at his wife beside him and his children sitting beside him.

He said: "My father mentioned in the letter that in the academy of his hometown, there was a female student he was very optimistic about who came to the capital and asked me to take care of him more when I saw him."

After saying that, Lu Chengda looked calm and his tone was not a trace of emotion.

"No matter what she does, she is just a female student, how talented she can be.

If you have time, you can tutor our son, but he hasn't even passed the exam now!" Mrs. Lu Yu said in her tone that she was disdainful of her father-in-law's recommendation, and her concerns and expectations for her son.

When Lu Xuanning heard his mother's words, he said unhappy: "You said the students of grandfather's academy, just say she, why did she still bring me with her? It's so unlucky."

After saying that, he stood up, "I won't come back for dinner tonight.

Mom! Don't wait for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already walked out of the door.

Just as Lord Lu was about to get angry, he was interrupted by the teacup handed over by Mrs. Lu in time.

"Don't get angry with Ning'er when you drink a little tea. Young people are just playful, and they will become sensible if they are older."

Lu Yujiao, who was sitting aside, curled her lips when she heard her mother's words. Her brother was concerned about food, drink and entertainment, but she was annoyed to take a look at the book at one more time.

Lu Shan Changren looked at his wife with anger, "A kind mother is defeated by her son, so she shouldn't listen to you and leave him by her side."

If I had listened to my father and asked him to take him back to his hometown academy to study, I would not have been as good as the winner, and I didn’t even pass the exam for a scholar.”

After saying that, Lord Lu stood up and threw his sleeves away with anger.

Leaving the mother and daughter alone in the room, Mrs. Lu was angry that her husband did not give her face and scolded her in front of her daughter.

He raised his hand and waved the teacup, turned to see his daughter's dull appearance, and scolded him in anger: "What's the use of asking you? You won't please your father.

Let a bitch's daughter be favored by your father."

Obviously, this is not the first time. Lu Yujiao lowered her head and let her mother vent her venting.

Her face was gloomy and thought that she was not as loving as Lu Yurou, but because her mother was not as gentle as Aunt Wang, could she blame her?

An Chuxia didn't know that Lu Shanchang mentioned her in her letter, which caused chaos that had already existed within Lord Lu's family.

If she knew about it, she would be glad that she was so wise that she didn't go to them to take care of her.

On New Year's Eve, the second-entry courtyard where the house rented a house was posted and red couplets were hung with red lanterns.

An Jinchen braised a pot of braised duck, braised goose and braised pork.

An Chuxia thought of the tofu that represents Fu and Fu on the New Year's table. No one has made this dynasty yet, so she thought about waiting for the opportunity to tinker with the tofu.

Soybeans can not only make tofu, dried tofu, bean curd, bean curd, stinky tofu, braised tofu...

A series of soy products.

Thinking of this, An Chuxia knew what to do with brother Runsheng.

But today is the New Year, not the time to say this.

An Jinchen, Runsheng and others looked at the chef who was today's New Year's Eve dinner and rubbed their eyes in unison.

They saw Shi Yu, who looked childish, stir-frying in the pot with a spoon that did not match him.

In less than an hour, I brought a table of seemingly delicious meals to the table.

When the first firecrackers were crackling, the New Year’s Eve dinner officially kicked off.

Then the firecrackers set off before the New Year's Eve dinner were not stopped until dark.

An Zixi finally showed the appearance of a young boy today, holding firecrackers happily hung on the treetops in front of the gate to light them, and with the crackling sound of firecrackers.

Everyone sat on the dining table, An Chuxia brought a pot of wine to fill everyone, and Gu Fangmiao looked at the delicious table and showed a look of mouth-watering look.

An Chuxia smiled and picked up the wine glass and said to everyone: "I wish you all good health and joy in the new year!"

The others also picked up their glasses and said to her and Gu Fangmiao: "I wish you two can win the honor of the toad palace in this year's spring exam!"

After everyone blessed each other, they all drank the wine in their glasses.

Everyone couldn't help but praise Shiyu's skills after eating the food on the table. An Chuxia also picked up a piece of meat and stir-fried jade dishes.

The macaroni here is somewhat similar to modern cabbage, but not exactly the same. It is slightly sweet and crispy when eaten in the mouth. It is an extremely cold-resistant vegetable.

There is no greenhouse here, and just this plate of vegetables was bought at a high price.

Maybe some merchant planted it in a hot spring farm and sold it at a good price before the New Year.

After An Chuxia, Gu Fangmiao and An Zixi who was limited to drinking, they got off the dining table and walked to the side to watch. An Jinchen and the others continued to drink.

When An Chuxia saw Gu Fangmiao was bored, she went back to her room to teach her how to play Go.

This is also something she had long thought that everyone would be bored on New Year's Eve vigil, so she bought it to pass the time.

Gozi chess is simple and easy to learn, and Gu Fangmiao quickly learned it.

However, Gu Fangmiao, who knew the rules, was soon connected to the line by An Chuxia, but every time An Chuxia was on her last son, she would lose to Gu Fangmiao.

An Zixi, who was watching the side, was very anxious, and An Chuxia just smiled.

The men who had finished drinking had some time, walked here and watched the two of them play chess.

"Zixi also wants to play chess?!"

Runsheng went to find a piece of paper and asked An Chuxia to draw the format. He took the black and white chess piece and took An Zixi to the side, and also played Gozi chess.

An Jinchen also followed, and the three of them were there, discussing and playing chess was very lively.

An Chuxia gave the position to Runsong, who had already watched it, and let him play with his beloved chess basket.

Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief and walked to the side and sat down.

Shi Yu brought her a cup of black tea soup. An Chuxia took it and took a sip, looking up at him, "Have you paid for your own money to buy tea again?"

Unexpectedly, Shiyu, who was found to have been replaced by tea, flashed with a sip, and said in a low voice: "I just bought a little!"

An Chuxia frowned slightly and didn't say anything else. After all, maybe he bought the tea for him to drink, so it was hard for others to say anything.

It was not until midnight that someone had already started to set off fireworks and firecrackers to catch up with the New Year that Runsong woke up Gu Fangmiao, who was already confused on the couch.

Shi Yu brought a cloak for An Chuxia to put on her body. The four of them stood in the corridor, watching An Jinchen, Runsheng and An Zixi, and took out all the fireworks and firecrackers he bought and placed them in the center of the yard to light them.

For a moment, firecrackers on the ground were crackling, and the fireworks exploded in the sky were not as brilliant as modern development, but they also had a unique charm.

Runsong stood behind Gu Fangmiao and covered her ears. The little girl about 1.6 meters tall reached only the tall Runsong's chest.

Shi Yu looked at the two of them with some envy, and was seen by Runsong who had turned his head.

Runsong raised his thick eyebrows on one side, showing a smug expression at a time, and Shi Yu also looked at someone at once, turning her head to stop looking at them.
