On New Year's Eve before the New Year, every household in the capital was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. Tang Tong had already given instructions to hold a grand celebration on New Year's Eve. Among these servants and maids, only Lu Jinlian had signed a deed of prostitution, and the others were free. Many of them went home to celebrate the New Year, and only

Lao Kuang's family, Ruan Zhan, Lu Jinlian, and Xiao Ningzi also returned home, while Feng Susu stayed. A total of twelve people celebrated the New Year, and they were divided into two tables to sit down.

At dusk, firecrackers were going off, and every household began to celebrate the New Year. At Xu time, the Tang Mansion also started to set off firecrackers. Tang Tong and Mao Zongxie walked out of the study and watched the firecrackers finish setting off. Tang Tong and Hu Zi finished paying respect to their ancestors before sitting down. Tang Tong sat upright,

Hu Zi was originally sitting next to Tang Tong, but he made a fuss about sitting with Shi Suo, so Tang Tong had no choice but to let him go.

Mao Zongxie was on the left of Tang Tong, Lao Jing was on the right of Tang Tong, Ruan Zhan and Feng Susu sat at the table. Tang Tong stood up and raised his glass, "Today is New Year's Eve. Everyone has worked hard for a year, so we can eat and drink tonight. There is no idea."

As servants, come and have a drink!" Tang Tong drank first and sat down.

At this time, Susu came over to pour wine, but Tang Tong reached out to stop him, "Everyone eats and drinks tonight. No one is going to wait on you. You go and sit down!" After saying this, he grabbed the wine bottle and poured it for Mao Zongxie and Lao Jing.

While pouring wine for Ruan Zhan, Ruan Zhan stood up and said, "I'll do it, boss!".

Mao Zongxie warned: "Let your Excellency pour the first glass of wine, and we will pour the rest!".

After hearing this, Ruan Zhan raised his hands to let Tang Tong pour the wine. Susu also stood up and raised his hands to receive the wine that Tang Tong poured. Then they toasted to each other. When Ruan Zhan toasted Tang Tong's wine, he was very excited, "I have never seen this before.

I respect you for having such an easy-going gentleman eating and drinking at the same table as our servants!" He drank it all in one gulp.

Tang Tong picked up the wine glass and smiled heartily, "That's because I'm not married, so I can't be as happy as I want when there's a woman around me, so do it!" After saying that, he finished the drink in one gulp.

Su Su stood up shyly, raised her glass, "Master! I'll give you a toast! Thank you for saving my mother!", and drank it in one gulp.

Tang Tong waved his hand to express his attitude, "Susu! Don't mention this matter again in the future. It's over. Don't keep it in your heart!".

Nazhi Susu still stubbornly said, "I will keep it in my heart forever!".

Tang Tong said nothing and drank the wine. After three rounds, only four men were left. Mao Zongxie suggested, "It's boring to sit alone and drink alone. How about asking the host to play a song?"

Tang Tong was also interested and responded loudly: "Okay!"

Mao Zongxie called out: "Su Su, bring the flute!" Su Su responded.

When the flute was brought, Tang Tong stood in the middle of the two tables and looked at everyone present. Mao Zongxie stroked his beard and said, "It seems that I am your bosom friend!".

"How about Brother Mao also plays a song later!"

Mao Zongxie waved his hand quickly, "Too bad! It will disturb everyone's ears!".

"I don't care! Just make your own mistakes and enjoy yourself!" Tang Tong was still teasing.

Mao Zongxie said nothing again. Tang Tong played the cheerful "He Yang Chun" first, with a relaxed and smooth voice that was pleasant to the ear. Tang Tong only regarded it as practicing his skills and did not pursue difficulty. Most people would say that you play well if it sounds pleasant. Tang Tong

The next song is a shepherd's song adapted from a pastoral song. It is also suitable for everyone to listen to. It has no noise and ups and downs and is easy to understand.

After finishing the two songs, Tang Tong walked to the wine table and put his flute on the table. Mao Zongxie pointed at everyone, "This shepherd's song still sounds pleasant to the ears. You see, everyone is fascinated!".

"Shepherd's music is looked down upon by everyone, but I think this song is a good choice for edifying one's mood."

Mao Zongxie also felt the same way and nodded repeatedly. Tang Tong said sincerely, "Brother! It's good to play a song to sober up!".

Mao Zongxie could not withstand the persuasion and finally agreed: "Okay! Listen to my noisy voice."

The piano had been prepared a long time ago. Mao Zongxie came on stage and was obviously a little drunk. He paused for a while before plucking the strings. It was a piece of autumn water. Tang Tong closed his eyes and listened to it. He played it well, with only some wrong notes. It was just for his own entertainment. He played it well.

No matter how good it is, what's the use, as long as it can be self-indulgent!

After Mao Zongxie finished playing, Tang Tong came to tease him again, "Brother Mao! How about another song?"

"Don't dare to show your embarrassment again, please play a few more songs, sir!" Mao Zongxie did not forget to encourage him.

Tang Tong kept shaking his head, "Not in the mood! I'll have a few more drinks with my brother!" Now there were only two of them left, Lao Jing and Ruan Zhan walked away knowingly, and the drinking didn't end until Haishi.

Tang Tong and Mao Zongxie went to the study to drink tea and play chess to celebrate the New Year. Mao Zongxie had fun playing chess. Tang Tong was no match at all, so Tang Tong still lost with six pieces.

Mao Zongxie did not forget to ridicule him, "Your Excellency has suffered repeated defeats. I admire your courage!".

"You have to let me have the pleasure of winning! Otherwise, how can I get through the long night?" Tang Tong threw away the chess piece and said: "Okay! Brother, watch me practice boxing. If you still have time, listen to me play.

How about a few songs?".

Mao Zongxie readily agreed, "How dare you disobey! I can also help carry a few buckets of hot water!" When the two came to the backyard, Mao Zongxie watched Tang Tong practice martial arts. Not everyone can persevere. After warming up, Tang Tong

Tong began to dance with swords, lift stone locks, and most importantly, practice archery, which was Tang Tong's strength. Tang Tong was already sweating profusely when he got down half an hour in the morning. When Tang Tong finished practicing, Lao Jing immediately handed him hot tea.

.

Mao Zongxie stepped forward and said sincerely: "You have persisted for a long time. You are not an ordinary person. I admire you very much for this!".

"It's rare for Brother Mao to say this! I have to rely on Brother Mao to remind me. Without you, I don't know how I can survive!"

"Sir, please rest assured! Since I have promised you, I will definitely advance and retreat together with you!".

Tang Tong patted Mao Zongxie on the shoulder and said, "Thank you, Brother Mao!" The two went to the study again and rested for a while. Tang Tong asked Mao Zongxie to read a book while he went to wash up.

Tang Tong came to the bathhouse and had filled a bucket of hot water. Only Susu was in it. Usually Xiao Ningzi was there. Tang Tong didn't notice it. When he saw Susu testing the water temperature with her hands, he saw in the hot mist

When Su Su's newly matured body saw the most convex and concave parts, her heart could not help but throb. She had not been in contact with a woman for a long time and was alone with a girl. She couldn't help but feel a desire in her heart. This was when Su Su walked by, Tang Tongyou

Susu had the urge to hug her, and Susu would never refuse her request.

Tang Tong took a deep breath and endured it, "You go out! I'll do it myself!" Su Su responded and closed the door and went out. Tang Tong soaked in the tub alone to release the depression in his heart.

After taking a bath, it was already midnight, and firecrackers were set off everywhere in the capital. Since Tang Tong had just taken a bath and didn't want to get dirty again, he watched Lao Kuang's family and Hu Zi setting off, and blended into the joyful atmosphere.

.

In the dead of night, Tang Tong was alone in the study, and he couldn't help but fall into daydreams. Life now is the most comfortable in more than ten years. It is far away from wars and disputes, and it is no longer homeless and fearful. How wonderful it would be if it could always be like this in the future! But

Reality told Tang Tong that he still had a lot of things to do, and he could not relax at all, otherwise he would fall into a catastrophe, which would be too late to regret.

The past events are still vivid in his mind, and only Tang Tong knows what to do next. Fortunately, he is not alone, and there are many promoters behind him. Thinking of Tang Tong's burning desire, he wants to stand at the pinnacle of power.

, realize the wishes that others cannot realize.

At this moment, a voice sounded, "Have you considered it?" The speaker was Mao Zongxie.

Looking back at him, Tang Tong nodded, "I decided to break it from the outside, unite the Zhejiang Party and Qi Party, and defeat Cao Shu!" When he said this, Tang Tong was very determined.

"Qin Xinyi is very difficult to break. Unlike Xia Xunqiu, she is a very suitable woman to be a partner." Mao Zongxie said what he was thinking.

"Don't be afraid! Xia Xunqiu also has her stubbornness. Once she identifies with Lan Tingshu, she won't give up easily. Qin Xinyi is a blank piece of paper. I want to imprint it on her heart." After a pause, he said: "

It's not that easy to escape Xia Zhan's eyes, it's better to fight tit for tat!" Tang Tong still insisted on his point of view.

Mao Zongxie nodded in agreement. In fact, he thought so too. "Then I will work more on Qin Yunhou to create better opportunities for you."

Tang Tong just smiled and turned around, as if he was saying to himself, "You still have to work hard!"...

Since Tang Tong had his back to Mao Zongxie, "What are you talking about?" After hearing Mao Zongxie's question, Tang Tong finally understood, turned around and said with a smile: "We have to work hard! Work harder!".

Mao Zongxie laughed now. It turned out that he was deaf. But he had a special ability. He could tell what a person was talking about by looking at his mouth shape. I didn't see Tang Tong's mouth shape just now, so I didn't know what to say.

.Last time in front of Sang Rixuan, Chen Ding asked him first but he didn’t respond. Fortunately, Tang Tong was very considerate. There was also a person at Xiangxing Gambling House. The waiter pulled his clothes, and then he realized that it was the waiter talking to him. Normally
