Chapter 373

On New Year's Eve, the weather was beautiful, and the sun came out early in the morning. Once it came out, it lasted the whole day, and it was much warmer than usual.Moreover, there was no wind until it was time to light the lamps.

Such a windless and snowless winter night is simply a gift from God for those who want to watch the year.

In the afternoon, the servants in the mansion carried several stoves and placed them directly in the inner courtyard. They also set up copper pots, and the white bone broth had already been stewed in the kitchen.

When it was time to light the lamp, I put it out of a copper pot, mixed it into the copper pot, and lifted the copper pot to the top of the charcoal-burning stove.In addition, there are several tables full of cut vegetables and fried meatballs, as well as thinly sliced ​​meat of various colors.

This was Qingzhu's idea, because the New Year's Eve dinner is to be eaten until the next year, and eating warm soup pots that can be eaten hot is better than stir-fried vegetables and stews.

There are only a few people in Qingzhu's family, only her and Qingshan.In addition, there are several of her apprentices, as well as Zhao Dashan and Liu Zhiqi who came to Beijing from Qingzhou with Qingshan, and some servants.So there are no masters and servants, all of them are in the inner courtyard, having a New Year's Eve dinner together, watching the New Year together, and having a lively New Year.

Qingzhu Qingshan had Tian Xiaohua and Xue Hongmei at the table, Zhao Dashan, Liu Zhiqi, and Zhang Shunniu Dali sat at the table, and the other female servants were divided into two tables. Wang Zhong had to take care of his own mother, so he also sat on the female servant's side.

As for Niu Lian'er, she sat and ate something beside Qing Zhu for a while, ran around Niu Dali for a while, and sometimes went to play with Sister Yu and Chen Qiuju for a while.

Ever since Qing Zhu talked to Niu Lian'er, Niu Lian'er became much more lively and cheerful, and her mouth became much sweeter. Uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters all shouted joyfully at everyone they saw.

He has earned himself a lot of likes.

In fact, except for the first time, when everyone ate for a while, most of the rest of the time, they were still chatting, but in the end it turned into a legend that the green bamboo gave everyone the "Nian".

Just after he finished speaking, Pei Zimo came, he seemed to have drunk a lot of wine, and was a little tipsy.The people below dragged out the stools and placed them next to the green bamboo.

Qingzhu asked someone to bring hangover soup, which was ready-made, because Zhao Dashan and the others had said they wanted to drink early in the morning.

After drinking the hangover soup, Qingzhu looked at Pei Zimo and asked, "Why are you leaving the palace now?"

Early in the morning, Pei Zimo entered the palace, saying that the emperor summoned him and gave him a banquet, but in fact, most likely it was the regent, that is, King Ning, who summoned him to give him a banquet.

"If the palace gate is locked at night, you won't be able to get out." Pei Zimo squinted his eyes slightly, looked at Qingzhu, answered irrelevant questions, said, then turned his head to look at Qingshan, and said, "I brought back a lot of firecrackers and put them all on fire." The ones in the outer courtyard can be burned and played later."

Qing Shan looked at Pei Zimo awkwardly, and said, "I'm not a child anymore, why do I still play firecrackers?" But even though he said this, there was joy in his eyes, and an expression of eagerness to try on his face .

In fact, when I was in Xiajia Village in the past years, Qingshan liked to light a fire every New Year, and then throw the knotted bamboo tubes into it, and listen to the bamboo tubes being burned. Come out childish.

That kind of bamboo tube is called firecrackers.

As for firecrackers, things like nitrate and sulfur are filled in bamboo tubes. Although it has a strong smell when it is burned, it is louder.

Seeing the eagerness on Qingshan's face, Qingzhu felt guilty, she was also in a daze, and forgot to buy this, luckily Pei Zimo brought it.

Then he instructed: "Go and play if you want to play, but keep it far away, so as not to explode or splash sparks on your body."

Niu Lian'er heard it from the side, ran over, pulled Qingshan's clothes, and said: "Uncle Qingshan, you go to set off the firecrackers, and take me with you, okay?"

I don't know who Niu Lian'er learned it from. Ever since she formally worshiped Qingzhu as her master, she has been called Qingshan Master Uncle, and every time, she will be called "Little Master Qingshan Uncle Qingshan". Niu Dali has said many times, but she still does her own thing.

Niu Dali had no choice but to apologize to Qingshan from time to time.

The first time Qingshan heard Niu Lian'er call him little uncle, the corners of his mouth twitched like a stroke, but after a few days, he got used to it a lot.It's just that I feel quite resentful about the small print.

Sure enough, when Niu Lian'er yelled, Niu Dali hurriedly came over to apologize in fear, Qingshan waved his hand, while signaling Niu Dali not to do this, while looking at Niu Lian'er, he said, "Who told you that I was going to set off a firecracker?" Also, if you call me Shishu, you can call me Shishu, why do you want to add small characters? Next time, you are not allowed to add small characters, do you hear me?"

"Yes, I heard." Niu Lian'er nodded vigorously, looked at Qingshan again, and said, "Uncle Qingshan, when are we going to light the firecracker?"

Hearing that Niu Lianer still refused to change after repeated admonitions, the corners of Qingshan's mouth twitched again.

Seeing the interaction between Qingshan and Niu Lianer, Qingzhu couldn't help laughing, and said to Qingshan, "Since Lianer wants to play firecrackers, you can take her with you, anyway, they will call you a little teacher." Uncle, that's not called for nothing."

"Yeah." Lian'er nodded several times in a row, and said, "Master is right, you can take me there, little uncle."

"Sister, you think everything she says is right." Qingshan complained, stood up and walked outside.

Qingzhu hurriedly asked Wang Zhong to go out together, which was more interesting.But Qing Shan had already been instructed once to be careful, so Qing Zhu didn't repeat himself.

Most half-grown children of other families have to face, let alone Qingshan.Besides, Qingshan has never been a person who does not make people worry, as long as he asks him once, he will pay attention.

At this moment, Wang Zhong's old lady had finished eating, and she was not cold sitting by the stove, and there was someone looking after her, so when Wang Zhong heard Qingzhu's order, he immediately followed Qingshan and went out.

And going out with them, there are Zhang Shun and Niu Dali.

After Qingshan and the others went out, Qingzhu looked at Pei Zimo and said with a smile: "What do you want to eat? I'll iron it for you."

Pei Zimo looked at Qingzhu with a smile, and said, "I'll eat whatever you boil."

Maybe it's because he hasn't sobered up yet, but Pei Zimo's smile looks a little silly, which makes Qingzhu want to tease him, so he looks at him and says, "Didn't you go to the palace for a banquet? Why? If you come back after eating a full stomach, could it be that the emperor's meal is not delicious?"

How did you know that Pei Zimo shook his head seriously, and said: "It's not delicious." As he said that, his face became a little aggrieved: "It's all cold, and they keep pouring me wine."
