Traveling through time as a peasant girl, buying a husband and raising a child
Chapter 144 Reunion
The whole family was busy all day long. The Spring Festival couplets were pasted and the window flowers were hung. Adults and children all had happy expressions on their faces, and there was already a sense of reunion.
The only thing that surprised Mu Jiaojiao was that the two wolf cubs had disappeared early in the morning. She didn't go looking for them, and the wolf cubs naturally needed to be reunited.
The sun was setting and dusk was approaching. Mu Jiaojiao's family had already prepared the New Year's Eve dinner in the yard.
Mu Jiaojiao only made two dishes today, one was sweet and sour fish, which means abundance every year, and the other was beggar's chicken, which means good luck and prosperity.
Everything else was done by Zhao Jianjia. This little girl's cooking skills have improved rapidly in recent days. She has basically learned many of the dishes that Mu Jiaojiao knows.
Old man Meng He played outside for a while, pasting window flowers, and then made an egg custard, saying that this was his granddaughter's favorite and he missed her.
Although he couldn't go home for the New Year, sharing a dish with his granddaughter was a reunion.
Mu Jiaojiao prepared two large tables for the New Year's Eve dinner this time, one for them and one for the secret guards who worked diligently to keep Jiang Jin and them safe every day.
Of course, when the secret guards appeared in the yard, there were seven of them in total. Except for An Yi and An San, who Mu Jiaojiao was familiar with, Mu Jiaojiao had never seen the others.
When He Zhouyun saw the seven people, his eyes couldn't help but flash. These were Prince Jin's famous secret guards. There were seven of them in total, and each one was outstanding.
Afterwards, everyone sat down together. Just as they were about to start eating, bursts of firecrackers rang out at the door of Mu Jiaojiao's house.
When Mu Jiaojiao heard the sound of firecrackers, she turned around and wanted to cover Jiang Mingxiao's ears. She was afraid that the boy would be scared.
however
"Hahaha……"
When the little boy Jiang Mingxiao heard the sound of firecrackers, he sat on the stool and started dancing, laughing.
He doesn't look scared at all, he's clearly overly excited.
"Huaizhi, a friend has come from afar, and you haven't come out to greet him yet!"
When Mu Jiaojiao heard this flamboyant voice and the slightly literary tone, she wondered in her heart, could this be Xi Yanzhi from Tianxia Diyi Lou?
"Hmph! An uninvited friend? Why should I come to greet him?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jin looked at the gate where no one had come in, snorted coldly, and spoke loudly.
"Jiang Huaizhi, you are still so unromantic and unkind!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man wearing a green shirt, a green jade belt on his head, and holding an ink-wash fan walked in. Who else could it be but Xi Yanzhi!
"Since you're here, let's eat together!"
Jiang Jin looked at the person who came, and although he said he was disgusted, there was a smile on his face, which showed that they were friends who appreciated each other.
The friendship between the two of them, who grew up together arguing and fighting, is naturally deep.
"Master Xi, please take a seat quickly. Jianjia will serve you a set of bowls and chopsticks."
Mu Jiaojiao saw Xi Yanzhi with a smile on her face and invited him to take a seat. It was New Year's Eve and a family reunion dinner, so everyone who came was a guest as well as a friend.
"Hahaha...Jinge thanks my sister-in-law for the hospitality!"
Xi Yanzhi bowed and sat in the empty seat. He looked at the dishes on the table with a smile on his face and praised them highly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Huaizhi, why is your family having such a sumptuous meal on New Year's Eve? If I hadn't been so shameless and come uninvited, I wouldn't have been able to enjoy all these unique things."
Xi Yanzhi knew that this was the truth. Jiang Huaizhi's wife Mu Jiaojiao was good at researching various dishes, and every dish tasted excellent. He had heard about it a long time ago, and when he saw it today, he found that it was indeed as good as her reputation.
Of all these dishes, he had only seen egg custard. He was really ignorant.
"Young Master Xi, do you still know that you are thick-skinned?"
When Jiang Jin heard what he said, he didn't give him any face at all and asked in a sarcastic tone.
Xi Yanzhi: “…”
Prince Jin, can't you hear that those are just polite and humble compliments from me?
"Sister-in-law, did you make all this? I'm really going to have a feast today!"
Who is Xi Yanzhi, the young master? Could he be choked to death by Jiang Jin?
He chose to ignore Jiang Jin and turned to ask Mu Jiaojiao. He didn't believe that the henpecked Prince Jin could still offend his wife.
If he dares, he will make his sister-in-law kneel on the washboard in front of him!
hum!
"Most of this was made by Jianjia. I only made two dishes. This sweet and sour fish, I love silver, I hope there will be surplus every year, and this beggar chicken, I hope everyone will be blessed with good fortune."
Mu Jiaojiao looked at Xi Yanzhi. How could she not see that he couldn't win an argument with his own man, so he was looking for a breakthrough from her!
But he was a guest today, so Mu Jiaojiao didn't refuse him, and Jiang Jin on the side didn't seem to care about Xi Yanzhi's behavior.
They have been together for so many years, how could they not understand each other?
"Sister-in-law, what great writing skills and ideas!"
Xi Yanzhi hadn't expected food to be so playful. Aren't they just fish and chicken?
Giving this food a meaning seems to make it different. It is not just food, but also a feeling.
"Alright! No matter how good she is, she's not your wife!"
Jiang Jin looked at his boastful expression and couldn't help but expose him.
Xi Yanzhi: “…”
Did Jiang Huaizhi have a grudge against me in my past life? He's always making things difficult for me!
"Pfft..."
Everyone at the table couldn't help laughing as they watched the two bickering. They were like two children who hadn't grown up, which was really funny.
In such a joyful atmosphere, everyone chatted with each other and had a reunion dinner for two hours.
We also drank some chrysanthemum wine specially made by Mu Jiaojiao. We ate heartily and enjoyed the wine very much.
After the reunion dinner, Jiang Jin asked Wushuang and others to bring out the fireworks that had been prepared earlier.
Fireworks are precious, because Mu Jiaojiao lamented a few days ago that fireworks are needed to create an atmosphere during the New Year. As an upright man, how could Jiang Jin let his wife down?
He arranged for the secret guards around him and used his connections at Tianxia Diyilou to ship over several large boxes, which were definitely enough for Mu Jiaojiao to release without restraint.
Mu Jiaojiao looked at the fireworks in the box, threw Jiang Mingxiao in her hand to her father He Zhouyun, then picked up the fire starter and went to light the fireworks with the secret guards.
Jiang Jin watched his wife go out to play, and went to help, taking apart the paper separating the fuse of the fireworks so that his wife could light the fuse.
Xi Yanzhi, the playful and talented scholar, was no exception. He pulled out a fire starter from his arms and joined in on his own.
Jiang Mingzhao had never played with fireworks before, he had just seen them and was eager to try them. He looked eagerly at his parents in the field, but no one paid any attention to him.
"Young Master Zhao, do you want to play?"
Zhao Xiangyi saw the desire in Jiang Mingzhao's eyes and asked.
"Well, I think so!"
Jiang Mingzhao pursed his lips, struggled internally, and finally spoke out his thoughts.
"Then Xiangyi will take you out to play!"
