Because the streets were so lively, Zhao Yan's carriage could not move fast. When he returned to the palace, it was almost 20 o'clock. However, compared with other places, the gate of Zhao Yan's mansion was even more lively. A group of young servants kept setting off fireworks purchased from the mansion, attracting many people around to watch. Even the servants in the mansion gathered in front of the door, especially the young maids, who were even more excited to see the fireworks, which made the guys who lit the fireworks even more excited.

Zhao Yan and Cao Ying did not stop the actions of these servants in the mansion, but instead smiled and watched for a while. After all, today is big, and the servants in the mansion also need to relax. Didn’t they see the butler Lao Fu also mingled in the crowd to watch the fun? From this we can see that the actions of these servants were all made by his acquiesce.

Without alarming Lao Fu and the others, Zhao Yan and Cao Ying returned to the inner house. When they came to the main hall of Zhao Yan's room, they happened to see Xue Ning'er decorating the room with Mixue. The main hall was also decorated with lights, and even the festive window flowers were pasted on the window paper. It seemed that they had spent a lot of effort.

Mixue was specially left by Cao Ying to decorate the room. As for Xue Ning'er, she was invited by Zhao Yan to celebrate the New Year with them. Xue Ning'er was also very happy about this. Speaking of which, since she entered the brothel, she has been practicing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting every day in the past few years. After becoming famous in recent years, she has to meet a group of guests every day, and sometimes she has to play the piano and sing music. Although it seems very relaxed, only she knows the hard work in it. Every year, she is not at ease because some guests don’t even go home for the New Year. Instead, she stays in the brothel all night. Xue Ning'er is asked by her mother to come out to see guests from time to time and has no time for the New Year.

When she thought of the bitterness of the years, Xue Ning'er also felt her nose sore, but when she thought about being invited by Zhao Yan to celebrate the New Year, she was happy again. No matter what tomorrow is like, she must have a happy New Year today.

"Hey, why are the prince and princess back? Haven't the two princesses come back?" At this moment, Xue Ning'er finally saw Zhao Yan and Cao Ying coming in from outside. She asked with some confusion.

"The second sister and the third sister wanted to come back, but in the end they were called by the empress dowager. I guess they won't come back today." Zhao Yan said helplessly at this time. He originally wanted to have a lively New Year with his two sisters. But unexpectedly, he was disrupted by Empress Dowager Cao. But this is not surprising. After all, Empress Dowager Cao usually favors Princess Shookang the most, and she has no children, so during the Chinese New Year, Princess Shookang will naturally be with her. If she calls Princess Shookang, she naturally cannot be missing Princess Baoan.

When Xue Ning'er heard that Princess Bao'an and Princess Shoukang could not come back, she couldn't help but hesitate. She originally thought that there would be many people today, but now there is only Zhao Yan and Cao Ying, and in the end she only has one guest. In this way, she seems a little unnecessary. After all, it is a beautiful thing for the couple to watch the New Year together. If this outsider stays here and doesn't leave, she will seem a little ignorant.

Zhao Yan is a carefree person and did not notice the change in the expression on Xue Ning'er's face. Instead, Cao Ying saw Xue Ning'er's concerns at a glance. He smiled and said, "Although the second and third sisters cannot come back, we have to have a lively New Year. My husband and I, plus Mrs. Xue, are indeed a little less people. Let's sit up, Mixue and Xiao Douya, and we will be lively together. Anyway, they are both the princes sooner or later!"

When Xue Ning'er heard Cao Ying let Xiao Douya and Mixue sit together, she couldn't help but feel happy. When she heard the last sentence, she felt even more panicked. Cao Ying is Zhao Yan's wife, and Xiao Douya and Mixue will definitely be Zhao Yan's concubines in the future. Now she is sitting with them. Does this mean...

Thinking of the last moment, Xue Ning'er couldn't help feeling her face hot. She suddenly realized that after spending time together, she was not repulsive of the above idea, and even had some expectations. If she could be with a man like Zhao Yan, it seemed to be a good choice. Xue Ning'er, who was just thinking about her worries, did not notice that her expression was completely seen by Cao Ying.

"Oh, why are you pinching me?" Zhao Yan, who was about to sit down and rest for a while, suddenly felt a pain in his arm. It was Cao Ying beside him who pinched him. Although it was not very painful, it made people feel a little puzzled.

"It's okay, I pinched the wrong person!" Cao Ying whispered angrily. Although she tried her best to hide, she still couldn't hide the sourness in her tone. In fact, this matter was not blamed on Zhao Yan at all. It was just that the woman was jealous, but there was no reason to say at all.

Xue Ning'er and Mixue haven't eaten yet. Although Zhao Yan and Cao Ying had just attended a family banquet in the palace, the banquet was mainly about talking rather than eating. They didn't eat anything at all, especially Zhao Yan left midway, so they felt a little hungry now, so they immediately ordered someone to bring the New Year's Eve dinner and everyone was having a chat.

Zhao Yan is an easy-going and very knowledgeable and talkative person. Mixue and Xiao Douya are also very lively. Xue Ning'er was a little unwilling to let go at first, but as time went by, he gradually began to join in. Only Cao Ying had not recovered from the jealousy just now. Although she chatted a few times from time to time, she spent more time thinking about her thoughts. Sometimes she would look up at Xue Ning'er, Mixue, Xiao Douya and others, and didn't know what they were thinking about?

The New Year's Eve dinner was eaten until midnight, and then Zhao Yan and the others began to play mahjong with great enthusiasm. This thing was created by Zhao Yan some time ago. After Cao Ying and the others learned it, they almost couldn't let it go. In the past, when Princess Bao'an and Princess Shoukang were together, they had to play almost every night, especially Princess Bao'an. Although she was in poor health, she played mahjong the best. Cao Ying and Princess Shoukang were almost lost in their bodies, and sometimes they had to borrow from Zhao Yan.

Unfortunately, Princess Bao'an and the others were not here today, but fortunately, there were Xiao Douya and Mixue, and they just happened to have enough four women. Although Zhao Yan can play, she is not very fascinated by mahjong. In addition, Xiao Douya is too stupid, so he sat behind Xiao Douya to help her read cards, so that she would not even know about the cards.

Vigilance is actually a very boring thing. It was fine in later generations, and there were many entertainments to spend time, such as watching TV, playing computers, and playing with mobile phones. However, in the Song Dynasty, it was a bit single. Zhao Yan and others could only spend time in later generations. In fact, the same is true in later generations. Many people kept playing mahjong until dawn after the New Year's Eve dinner, and then dragged their tired bodies to pay New Year's greetings. After coming back, they fell asleep and fell asleep on the first day of the New Year.

At the beginning, Cao Ying and the others were still very excited to play, but as time went by, the four girls felt a little sleepy, especially Cao Ying ran outside with Zhao Yan for an afternoon, and then she felt even more sleepy and tired, and she kept making mistakes in playing cards, feeding Mixue a lot of cards to her next home, and as a result, Mixue took the opportunity to win a few times.

Xue Ning'er, who was sitting opposite, saw Cao Ying's in poor spirits and immediately suggested with a smile: "It's not interesting to just play cards. Why don't you let me play a song for everyone to cheer up?"

When he heard Xue Ning'er want to play the piano, Xiao Douya and Mixue also cheered loudly. Cao Ying also knew that Xue Ning'er was thinking about herself, and he nodded in agreement with a smile, but at this moment, Zhao Yan suddenly said, "Snow is slow. You and Mixue have been decorating the room before, so why not let me play a song and let everyone listen to my achievements in musical instruments?"

"Husband? You can actually play the piano?" As soon as Zhao Yan finished speaking, Cao Ying, who was a little in a bad mood, immediately opened his eyes wide and asked with an incredible expression on his face. The sleepiness just now was thrown away by her.

"Hehe, I can't play the piano, but I can play another kind of instrument!" Zhao Yan looked mysterious at this time, then turned around and entered her room and took out the guitar. Xue Ning'er couldn't help but show an expectation when she saw this guitar that she had debugged by herself. She had wanted to hear Zhao Yan play this new instrument before, but Zhao Yan insisted on waiting until the New Year to play, which also gave her a reason to stay. Now she can finally appreciate this instrument.

Zhao Yan asked Xiao Douya to move a high stool, then sat in front of Cao Ying and the others, debugged the guitar in his hand, and then smiled and said, "Okay, now I'll sing a song for you first!"

Cao Ying saw the instrument similar to the pipa in Zhao Yan's hand, and he also showed a curious look. Zhao Yan cleared his throat, pressed his fingers on the strings to brew feelings, and then he started playing it gently. At the same time, accompanied by the bright rhythm of dingdong, Zhao Yan looked at Cao Ying with a affectionate look and sang: "It's hard to forget the first time I saw you, a pair of charming eyes. In my mind, your figure can't be dispersed. Holding your hands feels your tenderness, it's really a bit breathless. I want to cherish your innocence, and I will be sad when I see you wronged..."

This song "Love Is a Good" is one of the most popular songs Zhao Yan was in high school. At that time, like most boys, Zhao Yan also had a girl he liked in his heart. This affectionate love song can be rapped out of his heart, so Zhao Yan also liked it the most. After learning to play guitar, he mastered this song.
