Chapter 142 Year-end Dinner 2/10

Pendragon, Su Cheng's home.
The three girls, Kai Luoer, Deng Jiaer and Alan, gathered around Su Cheng who was wearing a gorgeous dress.
"Oh, what a gorgeous dress!"
Kyler, who was standing next to Su Cheng, said in a praising tone while looking at Su Cheng who was wearing a gorgeous dress.
"It's just." Deng Jiaer on the side added, "I always feel that these clothes are not very comfortable to wear."
"Yes, yes." Alan nodded and said, "Although it is very gorgeous, it will definitely not be very comfortable to wear."
Su Cheng looked at himself in the dressing mirror and smiled bitterly.
"You guys are really right." Su Cheng smiled bitterly, "Although these clothes are indeed gorgeous, they are really not very comfortable to wear..."
"All dresses are like this." Carol said, "The more expensive and gorgeous the dress, the more uncomfortable it is to wear. After all, the dress was not invented to make you comfortable."
After listening to Kailuo Er's words, Su Cheng nodded in agreement, then sighed softly and said:
"That's right. Dresses were not invented to make people comfortable."
The gorgeous dress Su Cheng is wearing now was sent to Su Cheng's home by Jacob this morning.
It can be regarded as a gift from Jacob to Su Cheng.
The reason why Jacob gave Su Cheng this gorgeous dress is because tonight is the annual year-end dinner of the Britannia Empire.
In this different world, there are 12 months in a year and only 30 days in a month. In other words, December 30th is the last day of the year.
The annual year-end dinner of the Britannia Empire is held on the last day of every year, which is the evening of December 30th.
The year-end dinner of the Britannia Empire is not only the most famous feast in the country, but also a world-famous feast.
In the beginning, the royal family of the Britannia Empire held a year-end dinner just to reward those who had made great contributions to the empire during the year.
At the end of every year, a dedicated person will review the performance of each civil servant and knight this year. Those who meet the standards will receive an invitation letter to this year's year-end dinner.
As time goes by, the scale of the year-end dinner is getting larger and larger. Until today, the year-end dinner of the Britannia Empire has become a luxurious and somewhat exaggerated feast.
It is said that the cost of a year-end dinner in the Britannia Empire is now as high as millions or even tens of millions of pounds.
The level of luxury is evident.
Countless civil servants and knights of the Britannia Empire have struggled for a whole year just to be able to attend this year-end dinner.
Many civil servants and knights are proud to have received invitations to the year-end dinner.
Of course, they are also proud of it, because invitations to the year-end dinner are not that difficult to get.
Many civil servants and knights have struggled all their lives, but have never received an invitation letter to the year-end dinner.
As the commander-in-chief of the Lund Kingdom's rescue operation, Su Cheng, who led the Britannian Army to turn defeat into victory and shined brilliantly this year, is naturally qualified to participate in this year's year-end dinner.
If Su Cheng is unable to attend, then I am afraid that not many knights will be able to attend this year's dinner.
Yesterday, someone from the royal family sent an invitation to the year-end dinner to Su Cheng's residence.
Just from this invitation, which is plated with gold and looks like a work of art, you can tell that this year-end dinner is extraordinary.
Because this feast is the most luxurious and solemn feast in the Britannia Empire, the dress you wear when attending this feast cannot be too casual.
So, this morning, Jacob, who had always taken good care of Su Cheng, very considerately sent someone a very gorgeous dress to Su Cheng, and asked Su Cheng to wear this dress to attend the year-end dinner tonight.
Just now, Su Cheng tried on this dress.
I have to say that it is indeed very luxurious and beautiful, but it is indeed not very comfortable to wear.
But there is nothing you can do about it. After all, dresses were not invented to make you comfortable.
Su Cheng took out his pocket watch and checked the time.
It is now 16:25 in the afternoon.
Tonight's year-end dinner starts at 19:30.
In other words, in 3 hours, the year-end dinner is about to begin.
Su Cheng felt that his heart was already beating faster due to excitement.
Su Cheng is still looking forward to tonight's annual feast.
After all, this dinner was notoriously luxurious, and there were mountains of delicacies rarely seen on jade plates at this dinner.
Su Cheng turned his head and said to Kailuoer and the other three:
"I may come back very late tonight, so you don't have to wait for me. Just lock the door when it's time to go to bed."
"Yes." Kyler smiled and nodded, "I understand. Don't go too crazy tonight. I heard that at the year-end dinner in previous years, many knights drank all night before returning."
"Brother, don't get so drunk." Alan added at the side, "It would be bad if you are so drunk that you need someone to help you back."
"I know, I'm sensible, I won't drink until I'm unconscious." Su Cheng said with a wry smile.
At this time, Su Cheng and others did not notice that Deng Jiaer was looking at Su Cheng, who was wearing a gorgeous dress, with a complicated expression.
He whispered to himself in a low voice that only he could hear:
"When can I... become a person like my husband and be qualified to attend the year-end dinner... When can I realize my dream of becoming a powerful general..."
After saying that, Deng Jiaer quietly clenched her two little fists.

Evening, 18:40.
A luxurious carriage stopped in front of Su Cheng's mansion.
Before the year-end dinner begins, the royal family will send people to drive luxurious carriages to take everyone who has received invitations to the Baiyang Palace.
After seeing this luxurious carriage parked in front of his mansion through the window, Su Cheng concluded that this must be the carriage that came to take him to Baiyang Palace.
After finally adjusting the luxurious dress on his body, Su Cheng said to Kai Luoer and others:
"I'm leaving. You guys remember that you don't have to wait for me tonight. If I haven't come back by late at night, you can lock the door."
"Oh, I see."
"Sir! Have a nice trip!"
"Brother, if you can, bring back some food from the year-end dinner! It is said that the food at the year-end dinner is so delicious that you almost swallow it with your tongue. I want to see how delicious the food at the year-end dinner is!"
As soon as Alan finished speaking, Deng Jiaer's pair of golden eyes burst out with a different look.
Alan's words just now reminded her.
Therefore, Deng Jiaer raised her head and looked directly at Su Cheng with her shining eyes.
That look seemed to say:
Alan is right! Sir, remember to listen to your sister!
Su Cheng smiled helplessly and said, "I know, I'll do my best. If I can take the food away, I'll try to bring some back."
Speaking of this, Su Cheng suddenly remembered something, looked at Kailuoer with his smiling eyes, and then smiled:
"If possible, I will try to bring back some wine for the year-end dinner."
Just now, Su Cheng remembered that Carol liked drinking the most.
After listening to Su Cheng's words, Kailuoer was stunned for a moment, and then smiled slightly, with an expression that seemed to be saying to Su Cheng: You know the truth.
"Then, I'll leave."
Su Cheng put on a warm coat over his dress, then walked slowly to the door of the mansion, put his hand on the doorknob, and suddenly paused.
After Su Cheng stood at the gate for a few seconds, he turned his head and looked at the three Kailuo girls standing behind him, with gentle smiles on their faces.
"A lot of things have really happened this year, and everyone has worked hard. Let's continue to work hard in the new year."
Chapter completed!
