On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 260 New Year’s Eve
Nowadays, people seldom call him by his name. Xiao Xiao is a little unsure: "Anyway, Mrs. Chen calls him Erlang, and some people call him Erlang, Mr. Chen."

Maybe when you like someone, whatever they say or do, they all have their own filters, and they are all very cute and pleasing to the eye.

Li Yan couldn't help laughing: "That should be it. I'll just ask him later. Let's go."

If Xiao Xiao knew too much about Chen Er, he would be depressed.

She just needs to understand herself.

Xiao Xiao is not sure why he is so happy. Is it because the second sister's marriage is settled, or is it because the future second brother-in-law is familiar with him?

Forget it, it's not easy to guess the young man's thoughts. Anyway, now he seems to have a good temper, good appearance, young and handsome, and it is pleasing to the eye, and suddenly he feels that he has earned it.

"Then I'm leaving!" When Li Yan saw her looking at him without blinking, he really wanted to take her away in his arms, and he couldn't bear to say that she was not reserved.

Xiao Xiao also looked at him in confusion.

He said he wanted to leave several times, but he didn't leave. Could it be that he was waiting for himself...

As soon as her mind got hot, she rushed towards him, put her arms around his neck, stood on tiptoes, kissed him on the face, and murmured: "I'll wait for you to come back!"

Are you satisfied now?
Li Yan's face instantly became like a red cloth. He pulled her away from him and rushed out of the door.

Xiao Xiao quickly grasped the door frame and did not sit down on the ground.

She was very angry at first, but when she saw him running away with hands and feet, she couldn't help but laugh.

People in the other rooms were also paying attention to what was going on in the living room. They were all anxious when they saw Li Yan running out first.

If Mr. Li can't even think about leaving, what kind of big event can this lead to?

They all ran out of their respective rooms quickly, fearing that Xiao Xiao would be bullied.

When she opened the curtain, she saw Xiao Xiao biting her lip and smiling happily.

Boss Xiao asked in confusion: "Why did you scare him?"

Even if he was his biological father, Xiao Xiao could not tell the truth and said calmly: "I said, if he dares to take concubines in the future, I will send him to the palace to serve the emperor, and he will be scared away."

She really didn't feel that she had done anything inappropriate for children, and she thought that he should exercise more so that he wouldn't make such a fuss in the future.

"How can he enter the palace?" After Boss Xiao said this, he realized that he could enter the palace by becoming a eunuch.

He took a breath: "San'er, you haven't married him yet, take it easy and don't scare people away?"

Even if she wants to dominate her husband, she still has to show her jealous nature after getting married?
It was a good thing that Mr. Liu was not jealous, otherwise he would have doubted whether he was still alive.

Thinking of Li Yan who was scared away, he murmured in his heart: I wonder if Li Yan dares to come again?
Xiao Xiao was very worried and walked out by herself: "I'm too full and a little sleepy. I'll go back and take a nap first."

Mrs. Wu still muttered: "She didn't get up to have breakfast when it got cold. She got up to have lunch and then went back to lie down. She's almost catching up with the pigs. She can eat and sleep well."

Xiao Sanlang was still holding his second brother there, breaking the casserole and asking the end: "Second brother, can I enter the palace in the future?"

"What does the palace look like? Isn't it very grand?"

Xiao Erlang immediately threw away this hot potato: "Ask your eldest brother. He has been to Yuhang and is the most knowledgeable person in our family."

Xiao Dalang was stunned.

He quietly gave Lin Xuan a silver hairpin, and then heard Master Li running away. Should he chase him or not?

He looked at Boss Xiao and asked: "Uncle, should I go after Master Li? Or should I wait for the convoy behind to go to the guardhouse?" Boss Xiao gave him an idea: "If you lose Master Li, then go Just look for Mr. Chen and don’t lose him.”

To be honest, he envied his nephew.

Xiao Dalang followed Li Yan to Yuhang. Not only did he gain experience, but he also had a registered identity: one of the guards around Li Qianhu.

Of course, with Xiao Dalang's skills, he is definitely not qualified for the position of guard.

To put it bluntly, if you really want to take action, don't even think that Xiao Dalang can protect Li Yan. Li Yan will probably have to take care of him.
He also wanted to be such a relaxed and comfortable guard.

It's a pity that he is Li Yan's future father-in-law, so it is inappropriate to work for his son-in-law.

Xiao Dalang suddenly realized: "Thank you uncle, I will go find Chen Er right now."

He used to think that Magistrate Chen was a high official, but following Lord Li to Yuhang and entering the General's Mansion opened his eyes.

Moreover, after this trip, Xiao Dalang and Chen Er were a little reserved and uncomfortable at first.

It was Chen Er who hooked up with him first, chatting and laughing, and then they gradually became familiar with him.

New Year's Eve arrived soon.

With the sound of firecrackers, we bid farewell to the old year, put up Spring Festival couplets, pray for blessings, worship our ancestors, and stay up late on New Year's Eve.

From time to time, you can hear the sound of firecrackers, the smell of food is everywhere, and the laughter of children is constant.

The Xiao family came here to escape from difficulties. They had no family or relatives to move around, so they simply stayed at home to watch the New Year's Eve. If the children came to visit, they would give them some peanut candy, making the children cheer excitedly.

After all, candy is very expensive, and few people are willing to give it to their children.

Xiao Sanlang also went to the neighbor's house next door with the children. He wanted to take Lin Long with him, but after the Chinese New Year, Lin Long would be twelve years old, so it was naturally inappropriate to go out and play with them again.

Boss Xiao crossed his legs and knocked on melon seeds without delaying his words: "Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year. We are all fine. We can sleep a little longer."

"I just don't know when the new son-in-law here came to visit us for New Year greetings?"

Mrs. Liu said angrily: "Didn't you come here to give New Year gifts the day before yesterday?"

The customs in each place are different. Some people give New Year's gifts before the new year, so they don't need to visit again after the new year.

Of course, if you have money in your pocket, you can visit us after the New Year with New Year gifts.

It’s not surprising that there are so many people doing this, and he will definitely not be kicked out by the Yue family.

Xiao Lao Niang was also happy when she heard this: "The Huichun Hall is right in front of us. It's really difficult to prevent Jiang Yu from visiting."

Wu also quickly agreed: "When the big girl goes out, it will be difficult to get him to come again, and he will be thinking about going home."

Xiao Xiu is now calm in the face of everyone's teasing.

After getting engaged, Jiang Yu came to have dinner almost every day.

Even after eating, he would come back for a cup of tea.

They have a two-entry courtyard. It's New Year's Eve and it's hard to close the door early, so Old Man Xiao, his two sons and his second grandson took turns to go to the front and keep an eye on the place.

After all, there were five horse-drawn carriages and mule-carts in front of us, so we were worried about being taken advantage of.

At this moment, Xiao Erlang, who was guarding outside, ran in and said excitedly: "Brother is back, Master Li is here too."
