Chapter 431 Happy New Year

After all, practice makes perfect, rolling out the dumpling wrappers decently, and she has to direct her family's wise and powerful, but she has never made dumplings before, so she is very clumsy He Teqin.

After a while, they changed their jobs, Mo Chuihe rolled out the dumpling wrappers, and Xu Jiao came to wrap them.As expected, the movement was much faster. Xu Jiao gave Mo Shuihe a thumbs up, and said in a sincere tone of admiration, "My Ashu really went out of the living room and into the kitchen. Look, the dumpling wrappers are rolled so thickly." Uniform, oily and slippery, amazing!"

Mo Chuihe smiled helplessly, and continued to bury his head in rolling the dumpling wrappers.

While working together to make the dumplings, the two of them talked one after another, briefly explaining some things that happened to each other since they parted, and the dumplings were finally ready.

Xu Jiao didn't eat very full in the palace, but after tossing and tossing for a while, she was already hungry.As for Mo Chuohe, the little food just now was really just enough to fit between his teeth.The two cooked a large bowl full of dumplings, each took a pair of chopsticks, and sat on the table in the small kitchen. You and I ate one by one, and occasionally picked up and fed each other, because they were close together. Accidentally, the heads of the two bumped into one place. They each held their painful foreheads and looked at each other, but they couldn't help but smile at each other.

In the faint yellow candlelight, in the dense white smoke filled with the aroma of food, the two sat facing each other, eating a bowl of noodles, occasionally talking, or saying nothing, just looking at each other, but they couldn’t say anything. The years are quiet and good.

It was an enviably beautiful scene. The few people who peeked outside the door were all smiling, just like when they came, they turned around and left quietly.

After the bottom of a bowl of dumplings, Xu Jiao let out a long sigh, and said shyly, "I didn't expect, I didn't expect that I still have the talent to make dumplings. Is the dumpling tonight considered delicious in the world?"

Mo Chuohe looked into her bright eyes, a smile flashed across her eyes, and she deserved to be serious, "Yes!"

The smile on Xu Jiao's face widened even further, satisfied and proud.

At this moment, there was a faint sound of crackling firecrackers outside, and hearing the movement, it seemed that they were not far away.She was stunned, "What time is it?" As she asked, she had already stood up and ran out with big strides. As soon as she reached the kitchen door, she saw a gorgeous firework blooming on the sky not far away. Looking at the location, it seems to be the front yard.

"Qin Niang has prepared a lot of firecrackers and fireworks. She said it's a festival every year, and they want everyone to have fun together. They must have already set it up." Mo Chuohe came to her side at some point, and joined her Looking at the fireworks that rushed up to the sky one after another, and bloomed gorgeously.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Xu Jiao was anxious, "These heartless people don't know how to call me, let's go! Let's go too!" After speaking, he grabbed Mo Chuohe and rushed out.

Mo Chuohe walked cooperatively, and the two arrived at the front yard, where it was already very lively.Qinniang bought firecrackers, but she was timid, just sat on the porch and watched them play. Hongying stood beside her with her arms folded, her slightly upturned face was flickered by the fireworks, red and green mottled, perhaps Because of the smoke and smoke of the world, he looked a lot softer than usual.

Su Le has now become a king of children, leading Wen Tao, Ling Xue, and a few half-grown children from Wenlou to laugh, make noise, and have fun.Xu Jiao thought of the scenes he watched when he passed by the street just now, but now he didn't feel any sentimentality at all, he just felt that his chest was full of warmth and joy.

"You guys who don't talk about morality, and those who have fun don't call me?" Xu Jiao raised his hips and raised his voice to reprimand, then rushed over, and quickly picked up the biggest bundle of fireworks.

Su Le and the others were caught off guard by being robbed, and Chengxue complained, "We want to call you..."

"Isn't that you are busy with Ashu's little farewell to the newlyweds, are you so friendly? If you bother you, I'm afraid you will chase us with a sword!" Su Le smiled and teased mercilessly, While talking, he was going to snatch the bundle of fireworks from Xu Jiao's hand.

Xu Jiao was very thick-skinned, she couldn't be distracted by Su Le's teasing words, she dodged nimbly, ran behind Mo Chuohe in a few steps, and chased after him, but her face was frozen. Su Le, who dared to approach, made a grimace, "This is mine now, and no one will try to snatch it from me!"

Then, instead of looking at Su Le's dark face, he hugged the fireworks, looked up at Mo Chuohe, smiled brightly and said, "Ashu, let's set off fireworks together!"

Mo Chuohe naturally had no objection, the two of them carried the fireworks to an open space, arranged the fireworks, and went to find a lighted incense candle.

"Go and put it!" Mo Chuihe stuffed the incense candle into Xu Jiao's hand.

Xu Jiao's smiling face, which was still extremely excited, suddenly froze. He swallowed, looked at Mo Chuihe and said with a dry smile, "You should let it go! I... I'm a little scared."

Mo Chuohe was shocked, "Are you afraid of this?" Xu Jiao also likes to pretend to be coquettish on weekdays, but Mo Chuohe privately thinks that she is very courageous. After all, whether it is assassination or avalanche, she has experienced it all. Most importantly, she dared to pluck his beard from the tiger's mouth from the very beginning of their acquaintance, isn't that just audacious?So she was actually afraid of such a bundle of fireworks right now?
Xu Jiao's face froze, "I'm just afraid I can't do it?" When she was young, she once set off the kind of golden cudgel fireworks she held in her hand during the Chinese New Year. Unexpectedly, there was no movement for a long time after it was lit, so she went up to watch it. Knowing that the fireworks suddenly burst into smoke, thanks to her father's quick hand, he pulled her away, otherwise she would have lost one eye.

But since that time, she has left a psychological shadow. Although she still likes fireworks, she wants to let them go, but she dare not let them go.

"Okay! Then I'll show you!" Mo Chuohe turned his head to look at her, agreed, and stretched out his hand. Xu Jiao thought he was going to take the incense candle in her hand, but who knows, he just took her He held his hand in the palm of his hand, and held the incense candle steadily with her.He walked around behind her, raised his other arm, and held her tightly in his arms.

She froze for a moment, then raised her eyes dazedly in his arms.

But he smiled at her and said, "For the New Year's fireworks, of course we will set off together! Don't worry, with me here, I will protect you, so... don't be afraid!"

Xu Jiao turned his head away, the corners of his mouth curled up, but tears were shining in his eyes, he knew that she was thinking about it, but was just afraid.She nodded vigorously...

He held her hand, and the two of them slowly moved towards the bundle of fireworks holding joss sticks.

But when they got close, Xu Jiao was still a little scared, so he closed his eyes tightly, as if he couldn't see and he wouldn't be afraid.

The incense candle lit the fuse, and the gorgeous sparks bloomed in the dark night like ink.The sudden crackling sound made Xu Jiao's fear finally rise to his throat, and he screamed regardless.

As if he had been prepared for a long time, Mo Chuohe jumped back while holding her, and at the same time raised his hands to cover her ears.

Xu Jiao opened her eyes and huddled in his arms, but couldn't help turning her head to look at the beautifully lit and brilliantly blooming fireworks in the night.

Mo Siuhe couldn't help chuckling, hugged her tightly, and watched with her. In the yard, Su Le and the others followed suit. The entire sky was beautifully decorated with fireworks, and their hearts and eyes seemed to be Lit up by this gorgeous fireworks.

It didn't take long for the sound of firecrackers to be heard from other places in the city, louder and denser, coming from different directions, converging together and interweaving into a festive movement.

Xu Jiao stood on tiptoe and pecked Mo Chuohe's cheek.

When Mo Chuohe looked down, he happened to see her little face lit up by the fireworks, and the smile on that face was even brighter than the fireworks, "Ashu, happy new year!"

Mo Chuohe's back was turned against the light, his face was immersed in the light and shadow all over the sky, flickering and mottled, but there was something faintly in those lacquer-like black eyes, which surged like water, after a while, he opened his mouth, With a hoarse voice, "You too... Ajiao, happy new year!"

Xu Jiao didn't answer, she raised her hands and hugged his waist tightly, and snuggled into his arms, Mo Chuohe also hugged her tightly back.

The sky is gorgeous, amidst the fireworks all over the sky and the sound of firecrackers, the embracing couples are tightly inlaid, as if they have melted into each other, and they are inseparable.They have walked hand in hand from this year to that year, and she believes that they can walk hand in hand for many years until they are both old and dead.

I went to bed very late last night, plus I was in the palace a few days ago and had so many things to worry about, so I was really exhausted physically and mentally.Back in his own mansion, with Mo Chuohe beside him, Xu Jiao relaxed and slept very soundly this time.

When she woke up, she hadn't opened her eyes yet, but she could already vaguely hear the sound of people walking quietly outside. She stretched contentedly, then turned around and hugged her beside her... She didn't think about it, but it was all in vain.

What about people?Could it be that she really just had a dream last night?

Xu Jiao couldn't sleep any longer, and bounced off the pillow all at once, flustered, and looked outside the tent hastily.

"The princess is awake?" The curtain was hung up at some point, and someone whispered, presumably hearing the movement.

But the terrible thing is that it has a male voice, which is still very unfamiliar.Xu Jiao raised her eyes in surprise, and what she saw was a burly figure, wearing a dark blue Kung Fu shirt, who was bowing towards her with cupped hands and fists.It was already bright outside, and the light inside the room was also bright, illuminating the man's face very clearly, and the thick beard almost covered most of his face.And from the corner of the left eye to the corner of the right mouth, the scar that spanned almost half of the face seemed like a thick black centipede coiled on the face, which made people feel fearful at first glance, and dared not take a second look.Even the only unshielded eyes among the facial features are dark and dark, without the slightest warmth. A casual glance at you can make the soles of your feet feel cold, giving you the illusion that you are a corpse, or are about to become a corpse.

Xu Jiaoyuan stared at the man with his eyes wide open, and in the next moment, he screamed, grabbed the pillow beside him and threw it at the man, "Where are you from as a disciple? The princess's boudoir is also yours." Trespassing? Why don't you get out?"

While yelling, she picked up the quilt beside her and wrapped herself up, her eyes were tightly closed, and she was trembling all over, looking really shocked and frightened.

But the man easily caught the pillow, raised his eyebrows and looked at her and said, "Your reaction is not like you. I'm afraid that anyone who knows you a little bit won't be able to scare you." The man opened his mouth again, now But it was a completely different voice, calm and clear, familiar, and belonged to Mo Chuohe's voice.

Xu Jiao opened his eyes, looked at him from the quilt room, and said with a bit of dissatisfaction, "Are you saying that I have passed the show? Let me tell you that a scholar can be killed and cannot be humiliated. No one can seduce me." Proud of her acting skills!" Xu Jiao put her hands on her hips, and the quilt wrapped around her body slipped down, but she proudly raised her small chin.

Mo Chuohe glanced at her, but his eyes were darkened, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Master, don't you think about getting your clothes on?"

Xu Jiao looked down, his eyes lit up, and he snorted, "You really are a disciple", while slowly covering up the front of his shirt.

"I see how my woman has become a disciple?" Mo Chuohe asked whether laughing or crying.

"Hey! Brother, please be careful. Who is your woman? This princess has two husbands. One is dead and the other is thousands of miles away. I don't know who you are? What's your name?" Xu Jiao He raised his brows and said in an accent.

Mo Chuohe choked for a moment, his throat was stuck, and he finally said helplessly, "I'm not afraid of being noticed, but I'm afraid of causing unnecessary trouble after all, so I think this is the best way. From now on I will It is your personal bodyguard, except in the palace, there is no restriction on movement..."

Mo Chuohe spoke sarcastically, while he was talking, he peeked at Xu Jiao's face, obviously explaining the meaning to her.

Xu Jiao looked him up and down, his eyes were so focused that Mo Chuohe felt a little uncomfortable, and followed her to look down at himself, "What? But is there any flaw?"

Xu Jiao shook his head and sighed regretfully, "You have only just arrived in Feng'an, so I'm afraid you haven't heard the gossip about me? They all said that in the past, those princesses, princesses, etc., raised face-headed male pets. There are too many to list. I am a young princess but I am a widow. I am afraid that I will not be willing to live alone like this. I am afraid that I will learn to raise a few. Anyway, I am not short of money. Seriously, what do you think?"

She blinked and looked at Mo Chuohe with a hint of provocation.

Mo Chuhe's eyes were deep, and his already cold face became even colder, "It seems that Ajiao is not satisfied with my previous performance. Anyway, it is not uncommon for people to sleep until noon on the first day of the new year. You don’t need to get up, I’ll let you revisit it first, and you must be satisfied!” He said with a blank face, but while he was talking, he approached the bed, and his hand was already on his belt.

Xu Jiao was slightly stunned, really caught off guard, seeing that he was about to get on the couch, she hurriedly stretched out her hand against his chest and said, "Wait...wait a minute! I didn't mean that, it was a misunderstanding! It was really a misunderstanding!"

"What I mean is, you're trying to hide it! Anyway, I love my ex-husband, so it's better to use your original appearance and modify it a little, so that you look just like He Lianshu, not the same person."
