This year, with the arrival of wolfberry seeds, we no longer just talk about it, it was immediately put on the agenda.
The winter in Kyoto is much colder than that in Qinghe Town. Even if Yubao is with her every day, there is a sufficient supply of carbon in the room. Yan Wenzhi needs to read and write every day, but he still gets a lot of frostbite on his hands.
It's still the same place where I grew up in the past, and there are still some low coughs from time to time.
Bai Yun's return set off a big wave in the court. Fortunately, the emperor knew in advance that he was going to return to Beijing, so he issued an oral order asking Bai Yun to return to Beijing and serve as the prince's tutor.
It's a good thing that it blocked everyone's mouth.
After more than ten years, Bai Yun put on his court clothes again and stood at the entrance of Jinluan Palace, as if he had lived a lifetime ago.
I think back then, this place was the place where he would come every day and where he would spend the longest time every day.
But being with you is like being with a tiger, this saying is right after all!
There were more and more colleagues coming to court around him, and everyone greeted him warmly when they saw him. He even didn't recognize many of them who were new.
What kind of presence is Bai Yun in the Dali court? He is the kind of person who even wants to show courtesy to the emperor.
But because Bai Yun retired from the court after the incident more than ten years ago, they had not seen each other for more than ten years.
The emperor was sitting on a high throne, overlooking the people below. The one standing at the front was Bai Yun. This was the position he occupied more than ten years ago. The fact that he was still standing in this position after returning was enough to show how much the emperor valued him.
"Lao Bai is finally back, so I can wait."
Bai Yun was startled and quickly leaned over to salute, "I know that I have done something wrong. I should reflect on it over the years. I am lucky that the emperor can still use me now."
After some pleasantries, as usual, if there is something to do, you will start to report, but if there is nothing to do, you will retreat.
Everyone walked out of Jinluan Hall, but Bai Yun was left behind.
Bai Yun was invited to the imperial study room.
The door of the royal study room was closed from the outside. The emperor stood up from the throne and walked straight to Bai Yun, "Teacher, you are finally back. If you don't come back, I don't know how to carry on."
Bai Yunchu helped him and sighed in his heart. No matter how resentful and resentful he felt, it was between him and the late emperor.
The current little emperor has only been on the throne for two years. He is the prince he once taught and the prince he is most optimistic about.
Since he came to power, he has said more than once that he would like to come back to help him control the court. He has refused many times, but now he has come back.
His position is that of the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince is only one year old and has no need for a teacher at all. It seems that he is looking for an excuse for himself.
"Your Majesty, please get up quickly. I can't stand your courtesy."
"There are no kings or ministers now, only teachers and students. You will always be my teacher."
The emperor respected Bai Yun the most, otherwise he would not have invited him back to Beijing many times after he succeeded to the throne.
The two of them stayed in the Imperial Study Room for several hours, and even had lunch together in the Imperial Study Room.
The palace has many eyes and ears. Anyone who is interested can know when he entered the imperial study, when he left the imperial study, and when he left the palace. What he did on the way and who he met.
The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month.
It's New Year's Eve.
The Hou Mansion and Bai Mansion have not been so lively for many years, and the two families decided to get together to celebrate the New Year.
The two families together have dozens of people, all celebrating the New Year in Baifu. Lin Nanyi likes this kind of lively time the most. He put aside the development of chilblain cream for the time being and followed the women to buy the things they need for the New Year.
Something comes.
When there are more people, the things she makes will naturally become more popular.
This year she also made a lot of dried meat, trying to let everyone share some, and made a lot of candied haws. The branches of Baifu and Houfu will come to the main house to pay New Year's greetings after the new year. There are many children.
These are their favorites.
On New Year's Eve, they still ate tomato pot, and the dishes prepared were much richer than last time. The whole family, no matter the master or the servant, sat together to eat and drink and enjoy the last day of the year.
After dinner, Lin Nanyi went to the backyard alone. This was her favorite place in the entire Huaiyuan.
There is a small plum blossom in the corner of the backyard.
It blooms beautifully during these coldest days.
Maybe it was too small and no one noticed it, which actually made it a little aloof.
"If you like, move it to the garden."
Yan Wenzhi's voice sounded from behind, and his cold body was suddenly tightly wrapped in the cloak he put on.
"No, it will be more free here."
Yan Wenzhi didn't speak anymore, he just stayed by her side quietly so as not to make her feel lonely or disturb her.
The two of them stood like this under the eaves for a long time, until light snow began to drift in the dark night, falling at their feet and on the blooming plum branches.
"Let's go."
As soon as Lin Nan opened her mouth, the two of them walked out of the backyard one after the other. Yan Wenzhi always walked slowly beside her, watching her enter the yard.
The third day of the new year.
Branches from Baifu and Houfu began to come to pay New Year's greetings one after another.
As a new family member and a legitimate daughter, Lin Nanyi naturally had to be present.
She stayed directly in Baifu the night before, and started preparations with Zuo early the next morning.
The people who came today are relatively close people, there are quite a lot of them, it should be a tough battle.
Zuo didn't like such an occasion very much, but he had to deal with it.
While she was buying things, she was teaching Lin Nanyi how to learn some calculations. In the days to come, there would be many banquets like this.
Before noon, people started arriving one after another.
Lin Nanyi was returning with fresh vegetables from the vegetable patch in the backyard.
Uncle Zhang likes to grow his own vegetables the most. He specially set up a small plot of land in the backyard. Now there are Chinese cabbages, which are even more delicious after being frozen by the ice and snow. Making a pot of cabbage and tofu soup will definitely be delicious.
.
Bai Yi and Bai Yin were called to the front by Zuo to help, and now only Bai Qi was following her.
Lin Nan jumped up and down with the cabbage in his arms, and the beaded hairpin on his head jingled, adding a touch of life to the snow-white scene out of thin air.
The way back to the kitchen was blocked by someone, and she saw several girls of similar age to her. Lin Nanyi roughly guessed that they were the ones who came to pay New Year's greetings today, but she didn't know them and couldn't say hello. As a host, she thought she was a little lucky.
He planned to leave from the side behind him.
Now the kitchen is in a hurry to use cabbage.
The tofu made by Baifu's mother-in-law is super tender and melts in your mouth, making it perfect for soup.
"Stop, do I let you go?"
Lin Nanyi:...?
These words were spoken by the woman surrounded in the middle.
This tone? Those who don’t know think she is the master of this mansion.
Lin Nanyi did not stop and was too lazy to pay attention to her.
Seeing that she was ignoring him, Bai Lanlan became even more arrogant. She turned around and prepared to pull Lin Nan back.
Before his hand touched Lin Nanyi, he was shaken back by a sudden force. Before the pain could reach his sensory nerves, Bai Lanlan saw his palm drooping down and hanging in the air.
"Ah~"
Severe pain came, and Bai Lanlan screamed sharply.
Lin Nan scratched his ears, it was so noisy!
Only when I turned around did I realize that Bai Qi had removed Bai Lanlan's wrist with just one hand!
But...it's not that radical.
"You...you dare to break my hand!!"
"Do you know who I am? I won't let you go!!"
It was so painful that Bai Lanlan could not help but feel like he was floating when he said the last few words.
I saw people arriving in a hurry and leaving in a hurry.
Lin Nanyi could only shrug and express that he didn't understand.
"Why did you remove her wrist?"
She didn't want to cause trouble for Zuo in the Bai family.
"She wants to pull your hair."
Hiss~ Why do I suddenly feel some pain in my scalp?
"Do you know who she is?"
Bai Qi shook his head.
No matter who she is.
Anyway, now I'm done with it, and I'm done with the feud.
The two of them hurriedly carried the cabbage and headed towards the kitchen.
lobby.
Mr. Zuo sat on the main seat, and below him sat his dearest wives from the side branches.
Everyone was chatting about each other, and suddenly someone said, "Madam, didn't you say you recognized an adopted daughter? Why haven't you seen her? Isn't she in Kyoto?"
Zuo took a sip of tea and then put down the cup. He casually put his hand aside and tapped it lightly, adding a touch of nervousness.
"This kid likes to cook, so he is probably in the kitchen now."
Zuo's brows and eyes were full of doting, as if he were his own child.
The ladies had different expressions and laughed as they told the story.
Bai Lanlan found someone to fix her wrist and hurriedly came to the front hall to say hello.
When I saw Mr. Zuo from a distance, I couldn't hide the excitement on his face.
She was almost adopted by the Zuo family.
Bai Yun is considered the boss in the Bai family, and now he is the Crown Prince and Tutor. The status of the Zuo family is naturally much higher than that of the other branches.
"Well, Auntie! Lan Lan misses Auntie so much."
Bai Lanlan stepped forward and bowed. Her lips were red and her teeth were white, and her clothes were very flattering, making her look exquisite and small.
"Okay, okay, Lan Lan has grown up. She has become a big girl. Does she have a mate?"
Zuo happily shook Bai Lanlan's hand and said to Bai Lanlan's mother, the second wife.
"I haven't given her permission yet. I don't have many children at home, so I would like to keep her for two more years."
The second wife answered with a smile.
When Zuo suffered the loss of her youngest daughter, Bai Yun thought about letting Bai Lanlan adopt her so that she could be with Zuo.
Later, due to some reasons, he could not be adopted, but Bai Yun also took great care of the second bedroom and one family.
Therefore, the second bedroom is quite decent compared to other branches.
Lin Nanyi happened to be coming from the verandah. She went back to the yard to change her clothes this time, looking very lively.
Looking at the woman who seemed to be causing trouble for her today, standing next to Zuo, they felt intimate for a while.
Lin Nanyi casually joked, "Bai Qi, look, that's no small person. It seems like something big is going to happen today."
Bai Qi also realized that he might be in trouble. He lowered his head and stood next to Lin Nanyi. Even though the tall man of about 1.8 meters lowered his head, he was much taller than Lin Nanyi, but at this time, he seemed to have lost all his aura.
"Miss, I am responsible for my own actions. I will admit my mistakes later." This chapter has been completed!
