Chapter 42: Roasting Meat Around the Furnace

PS: Everyone is early, hehe, I am asking for recommendation votes for routinely, and I am leaving too far to those BTs on the list...

Compared with the halls and rooms of Qiantou County Party Committee, the official houses for people to live in the county party committee are somewhat small and elegant. At this moment, when Cui Yuan, who heard the news, welcomed a group of people in, personally brought an umbrella to cover up the wind and snow, and said, "The Lord of the Lang originally wanted to visit Shiyilang in Lu's thatched cottage before the New Year, and worship Du Gong Lu, but he happened to know that Shiyilang and Du Xiaolangjun were here together. Ming Gong was so happy."

While speaking, he turned his head and looked at Du Shiyi, who was served by another servant with an umbrella, and suddenly patted his head gently with his left hand: "Look at my memory, I am good at teaching Du Xiaolangjun learned that Miss Du was only received by my wife this morning. Who knew that Mr. Langjun was here? This is not the coincidental thing in the world?"

Du Shiyi was thinking about what Wu Jiu asked for, but at this moment he heard that Du Shisanniang was also here, and he was overjoyed. Sure enough, just after entering the third door, he saw Du Shisanniang standing there under the eaves of the bedroom with Zhuying's hand holding Zhuying, looking forward to waiting. As soon as he saw him, an expression of extreme joy suddenly appeared in his eyes.

If a middle-aged woman next to her had said something, she would almost have been unable to help but stepping straight into the snow in her brocade boots. Seeing this, he quickly accelerated his pace. When he got closer, he saw Cui Jianxuan bowing to the woman and saying Aunt Qi. He remembered that when Cui Jianxuan mentioned that Cui Jianxuan seemed to be from the Wang family of Langya, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Goodbye to Madam!"

Mrs. Wang smiled and helped Cui Jianxuan up, then quickly called Du Shisanniang to help Du Shiyi up, and then said kindly: "It's all my family, so there is no need to be too polite. Today I just asked someone to bring Shisanniang over, but I didn't expect Shisanniang to come together with Shisanniang in the evening. This is really God's will! The venison meat has been roasted on the stove. Come into the house to remove the cold air. It's just the time for supper!"

Du Shisanniang held Du Shiyi's hand tightly, and when she followed Cui Jianxuan's wife Wang into the house, she took advantage of the inattention of others and quickly explained to her brother in a low voice: "Brother, it was Mrs. Wang who sent someone to invite him many times, and I really can't refuse..."

"It's okay, you live alone with Zhu Ying and others at the foot of Junji Peak. You are lonely. Walking around the Cui family is also the right thing to do." Speaking of this, Du Shiyi gently stroked the small and cute drooling man on the left of Du Shisanniang, and then said softly, "It was snowing heavily today, and I didn't want to go back to Dengfeng County. I plan to go to the thatched house under Junji Peak to see you. Fortunately, Cui Shiyi forced him to come, otherwise he would have been too late to regret it. So, you came this time!"

Du Shisanniang was extremely happy when Du Shiyi said that, and couldn't help but put her head on her elder brother's arm. Mrs. Wang, who was walking in front, looked back inadvertently, but saw Du Shiyi holding a heavy skin in her right hand, and couldn't help but ponder. The next moment, she heard Cui Jianxuan shouting, "Oh, this is finally warm... I'm almost exhausted when I run around and blow the wind! Where are Aunt Qi, Twenty-Five and Shisqi Niang?"

Although Cui Weizhi had a concubine son and daughter, he had only one son and one daughter after his legitimate son and one daughter, and only the latter came out to see the guests. At this moment, Mrs. Wang said Du Shiyi was like a Tong family. She smiled and ordered the maids beside her. After a while, the maids came out surrounded by the two of them. In front of her was a fat man about seven or eight years old, and she looked cute. After coming up to see the greeting, she immediately came to Cui Jianxuan and shouted eleventh brothers. When Cui Jianxuan threw it to him, he immediately smiled as if he had a treasure. When Cui Jianxuan was behind her, he immediately smiled as if he had been to the same age as Du Shisanniang. Compared with her younger brother, she seemed a little shy. After celebrating her salute, she hid behind Mrs. Wang, but she still quietly looked at Du Shiyi curiously from time to time.

At this moment, Cui Weizhi had not returned to the bedroom, so dinner was naturally inconvenient. Mrs. Wang ordered the maid to put on crispy cheese, milk slurry and four-color milk cakes. Although Du Shiyi was hungry, he saw Cui Jianxuan eating and chewing it without saying a word. He felt that he was full without eating. In the end, he only used half a cup of milk slurry, and spent more energy on dealing with Mrs. Wang's seemingly casual but actually taking the exam. Fortunately, the time for this bad feeling was not too long, but after a while, he heard a sound "The Lord of the Son is back". Soon, Cui Weizhi, wearing a robe, stepped into the room.

"I was about to go to Lu's Thatched Cottage in person and ask Shiyilang when you would be able to return to Dongdu a year ago. Unexpectedly, you and Du Shijiulang came." Cui Weizhi helped Cui Jianxuan up, raised his hand to signal Du Shiyi to sit down and talk. When he sat down in the main seat in the center, he glanced at his biological son who was sitting upright and smiled, "Today we are all our family, we are familiar with each other, so you might as well relax."

Cui Jianxuan, who had just barely kneeled down, immediately moved one leg out from under his body and hung it in front of the short couch. As he took the lead, Cui Xiaofai naturally followed suit. Du Shiyi was naturally happy to sit cross-legged. Only Mrs. Wang and Du Shisanniang and Cui Shisqiniang were still kneeling there gracefully, as if she had not heard the casual and relaxed order. In a moment, the maids brought a table of food. Each table had a set of white porcelain bowls and plates, and peppers were served in the dishes, but there were no vegetables. Then, just now, there was a sound outside, and three or four servants worked together to carry a rack with grilled deer into the room.

As soon as the thing entered the room, a fragrance spread everywhere. Cui Jianxuan seemed to have responded to the four words "just ritual" and sniffed hard, and his eyes lit up for a while. Du Shiyi suddenly discovered that the fat Cui Xiao-shou also closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He did not notice that Cui Qizhi, who was on the head, had already frowned. After sniffing it hard several times, Cui Jianxuan looked at Cui Qizhi and said with a smile: "Uncle Qi doesn't care, I'll pick it first, right?"

"You are really rude, and you don't know how to give in to Shijiulang and Shisanniang." Seeing that Du Shiyi was owing, Du Shisanniang also smiled. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Well, you like to eat one, choose it yourself!"

"Cut off the deer whip first!" Cui Jianxuan shouted without hesitation, and when everyone else was stunned, he smiled wickedly, "Then present it to Uncle Qi!"

"Boy!" Cui Wei was suddenly amused, blurted out a smile and cursed, then sighed, "I thought you could learn more elegantly with Mr. Lu, but you were still so silly!"

"Master Lu emphasizes letting things go, but there is not so much red tape."

Cui Jianxuan made a gesture proudly, and saw one of the servants dressed in a cook glance at the master and mistress, and finally carefully cut off the deer whip and put both hands on the porcelain plate on Cui Wei's previous head. Despite this, Cui Wei, who was regarded as the object of jokes by his nephew, was not interested in enjoying such aphrodisiac in public, and he calmly put it aside.

Fortunately, Cui Jianxuan only asked for a piece of leg meat next time. His son Cui Ershiwulang also asked for a piece of leg meat as a gourd, Du Shiyi asked for a piece of rib meat. As for Mrs. Wang, he cut a small piece for Du Shisanniang and Cui Shisqiniang in the form of a mistress to taste it. At this time, Cui Weizhi signaled to cut a piece of breast meat and waved his hand to lift the remaining deer down. At this moment, someone came up with various vegetables, many of which were rare in winter. Plus a small bowl of fresh fish soup, various snacks, and a small bowl of white rice. It was all in one go.

Although he was not talking or talking, the Cui family obviously did not adhere to the ancient rules of this meal. Everyone was having sex and chatting. Most of the time, women were listening to men's words, while Cui Xiaofat was too young to talk, and always stared at Cui Jianxuan in admiration. Du Shiyi naturally would not steal the limelight with Cui Shiyilang on the Cui family's territory. Unless Cui Weizhi asked him, he would not speak easily. However, when Cui Weizhi seemed to mention a person's name inadvertently, he was immediately worried.

"Grandpa Lu died in November. Although Grandpa Yuan had just become a minister, Grandpa Yao was sick again and was always recuperating. Grandpa Yuan was running between the Political Affairs Hall and the Royal Hotel, and he was too busy." Cui Weiyi said, while examining Cui Jianxuan's expression. "It was just that Ziweisheng's general amnesty was sent to the world. The saint waved his pen and circled that Zhao Hui out, which was in an uproar for a while."

Cui Jianxuan frowned when he heard this, and then said impatiently: "Uncle Qi has nothing to do with saying such important things in the court? You are not the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall, and I have not yet entered the officialdom!"

"Haha, maybe I read too much about this news in the court during the day, and forgot that I was not with my subordinates."

Cui Weizhi patted his head in the dark, and then said nothing about the topic just now. As the sky gradually got late, he smiled and left Cui Jianxuan to live in the former room, but he was understanding and asked Du Shiyi and Du Shisanniang to face two wing rooms in a small courtyard outside. When the maids brought their children down, he rubbed his eyebrows thoughtfully.

Mrs. Wang held back her maid and asked in confusion: "Why did Qilang mention the major affairs of the court just now?"

"Shiyilang is this kind of personality... It seems that I am wrong now."

Cui Weizhi sighed and then said softly, "The Cui family has been passed down from its ancestors to this day, with ten branches and leaves, six branches of Cui in Qinghe and four branches of Cui in Boling. Shiyilang and I are the same grandfather, and we belong to the Yanling house in Xuzhou. By now, Shiyilang's generation has been prosperous. Although each generation has a patriarch, there are other people who are in charge of the real power of the clan. The generation of his father is Shiyilang.

My grandfather was the ox. In my generation, Taizhi, the uncle of Eleven Lang, was the leader of our family. However, when Eleven Lang's father was killed, he was unable to succeed. Although his title was as high as the Duke of the Kingdom, he could not be as stable as the fourth brother Taizhi. Now that it is the generation of Eleven Lang, if he can know who this generation is fully cultivated, for Twenty-five Lang, he will be able to avoid many detours in the future."
