Phoenix Hairpin - Chapter 137

[Chapter 137 The New Year]

The new year of the ninth year of Yongjia came in the heavy snow.

The snow fell all night and only stopped at five watch.

As soon as you step on it, it is a deep foot socket.

As a courtier, you have to enter the palace early in the morning on New Year’s Day.

Today, Emperor Yongjia is leading civil and military officials and a group of princes to sacrifice to the gods and the imperial temple, and there is a grand banquet in the palace.

He ordered the ladies to get up early and enter the harem to meet the Empress Dowager Zhao, Queen Qiao.

The maid-servants and the soldiers of the Lu Mansion, all dressed in thick cotton-padded clothes, came to greet the master with joy.

Lu Mingyu and Shen Lan sat in the inner hall with a large basket of copper coins beside them.

There is a reward for those who come to please.

Lu Fu’s reward was also interesting, so he went to the basket and grabbed a handful.

Grab as much as you can.

The servant girls with small hands and weak hands can’t hold a few, and the stewards with palms as big as palm fans are different from the personal soldiers.

Reach out for a slick, and it is full of copper coins.

It made the maids’ eyes turn red with envy.

It was also the first time that Shen Lan saw such liveliness, and she whispered, “It’s interesting to have such a red seal.”

Lu Xuan hurriedly smiled and said, “This is the method that Fourth Sister came up with.”

“It’s the New Year, let’s make it a festive and lively event.” Lu Mingyu smiled and said, “I have prepared enough chicken, duck, fish, and wine in the kitchen. On New Year’s Day, let everyone have a good meal.”

Why are the Lu family’s personal soldiers loyal to their masters and not afraid of death?

That’s why.

Lu Lin was strict in governing the army, and he was never soft-hearted in training his own soldiers.

However, in addition to being fierce in training, it is extremely good for the personal soldiers.

Every noon of the month, the silver is rich, and the clothes are warm and the food is full.

If you are killed in battle, you will have rich pensions and money to settle down.

Those who are injured and have nowhere to go, stay in the Lu Mansion as a pensioner.

Lu Mingyu had been in charge of the family for six years, and treated the soldiers equally well.

In this way, the personal soldiers were also loyal to Lu Lin’s father and daughter.

Shen Lan listened silently, remembering each one in her heart.

Lu Mingyu is about to get married, and in the future, the inner house will be handed over to her.

She can’t be compared with Lu Mingyu, at least, can’t chill everyone’s heart.

“Fourth sister, it’s cold today, shall we eat hot pot for lunch?” Lu Mingyue suggested with a look of anticipation.

Lu Xuan was also very greedy: “Yes, yes, there are frozen sheep in the house, sliced into thin meat rolls, rinsed in a hot pot, and dipped in some spicy oil and autumn oil, not to mention how beautiful.”

Shen Lan also likes to eat hot pot.

However, as a bride and a second sister-in-law, you have to be reserved.

So, she swallowed quietly and said nothing.

Lu Mingyu knew more about Shen Lan, and laughed and joked: “Second sister-in-law doesn’t say a word, do you want to eat?”

Shen Lan was no longer reserved, and immediately said: “The soup with pheasant is the most delicious.”

…

The fragrant and steaming pheasant soup is tumbled with green vegetable leaves, white bamboo shoots and tofu.

Lu Mingyu held the frozen leg of lamb in his left hand and a thin dagger in his right hand.

With a slight movement of his right hand, the slices of mutton as thin as cicada’s wings flew into the pot like snowflakes.

The lamb slices fell into the pot, tumbled in the fragrant chicken soup, and were scalded in an instant.

This is not the first time for Shen Lan to see her. Every time she sees it, she always marvels: “Xiaoyu, you are so amazing!”

Lu Mingyu smiled casually: “The trick of carving insects is nothing.”

She has practiced martial arts and swords since she was a child, and has also practiced archery hard.

Fallen leaves and flying flowers in her hands can also hurt people.

Shen Lan sighed sincerely: “Xiaoyu, how do you feel about the peerless master?”

Lu Mingyu thought for a while, and then answered seriously, “I’m used to it, so that’s it!”

Shen Lan spat at her with a smile.

Lu Mingyue and Lu Xuan were busy eating and drinking, their foreheads sweating.

After Lu Mingyu cut a leg of lamb, he sat down slowly, took a sip of fruit wine, and ate a sip of hot lamb.

This day is really arbitrary.

Lu Lin, his father and son, returned home only after dark.

At night and at noon, they also eat a hot pot of pheasant soup.

Lu Fei wanted to show his hand in front of his new wife and brought a frozen leg of lamb.

Before cutting a few pieces of mutton, Shen Lan smiled and said, “It’s better for Xiaoyu to cut it quickly and well.”

Lu Fei: “…”

In the roar of laughter, Lu Fei looked at Lu Mingyu helplessly: “Fourth sister, can you save face for the second brother?”

Lu Mingyu replied without sincerity: “I didn’t mean it either.”

After dinner, everyone gathered in one place to play cards and throw dice.

Lu Mingyu was so lucky that he won away the private house that Lu Xuan had saved for a year.

Lu Xuan was so annoyed that he beat his chest and kicked his feet, which made everyone happy again.

…

On the second day of the new year, married Lu Mingfang and Lu Minghua returned with their husband-in-law.

From the third to the sixth day, relatives and friends walk with each other.

The Lu Mansion was already prominent, and after Lu Mingyu and the second prince got engaged, the word “geng” should be added before they became prominent.

In the past few days, the people who came to the door to vote for the post were like Jiang Zhiqing.

After removing most of it from the sieve, Lu Mansion was still full of people coming and going every day, and it was extremely lively.

As a prince, Li Jing was constantly entertained at various banquets every day.

Only showed up on the third day of junior high.

It didn’t stop until the New Year’s Day.

In the past few years, Dawei has been fighting for territory, but Yan and Chu have not stopped very much.

However, the Great Wei Jingcheng is prosperous.

UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com The Lantern Market on the Shangyuan Festival is also the busiest time of the year.

Lu Lin told Lu Fei with a smile: “I’m going to the military camp, don’t go today. Accompany Mr. Shen to the lamp market to see the excitement.”

Lu Fei responded with a smile.

Zheng Zhong has already decided on the restaurant with the best location. It is very convenient to watch lanterns, guess riddles, eat Lantern Festival and watch juggling.

Zhou Li and Lu Minghua also returned to the house early, and everyone was talking and laughing, preparing to go to the lamp market together.

“Fourth Sister,” Lu Minghua asked with a smile, “Will His Royal Highness the Second Prince come today?”

Lu Mingyu smiled casually and said, “I specifically told me before that you want to enjoy the lanterns with me on the Lantern Festival, and it should come soon.”

Li Jingqian personally sent a New Year’s gift to her and invited her to visit the Lantern City on the Lantern Festival.

The fiancé actively looked for various opportunities to be courteous, but Lu Mingyu did not refuse, so he agreed.

Before she finished speaking, Qiyun came to report with a smile: “Miss, the second prince has come down.”

Li Jing often came to the door, and the Lu family was flattered and cautious at the beginning, but now they are not used to it.

No one even went to greet Lu Mingyu.

Once the fiancée met, they held hands and kissed each other endlessly. They were too obtrusive to the side.

Lu Mingyu walked to the front door, and a handsome young man in a jade-green robe came into view.

After a year, Li Jing became taller and slender.

Standing with a smile, eyes like the spring breeze.

Lu Mingyu glanced at the past, opened his mouth and said, “It’s so cold, what are you doing so thinly dressed?”

Li Jing: “…”

The peacock who opened the screen, accidentally met a fiancee who did not understand the style, and was really depressed.
