Chapter 258

Seeing this, Qi Heng didn't want to force her, but just told Qi Yuan to take good care of his mother.

On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, the cold wind swept the snowflakes, and a team of guards escorted the carriage into the palace.

The forbidden army didn't dare to stop them, and hurriedly knelt down, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

As soon as Qi Heng entered the palace gate, someone from the harem got the news.

"Director Yu."

Manager Yu immediately understood, and whispered to the eunuchs beside him, telling them to follow the eunuchs who were going to deliver the letter.

It made many people jealous of the queen, and almost smashed a brocade handkerchief in their hands.

Qi Heng went to Chashan Town, although he left his confidants to deal with the affairs of the court, but if he did not call the concubines of the harem to sleep for a long time, there would naturally be doubts.

The empress helped hide this matter from the beginning, and the concubines in the harem thought that the emperor stayed in Kunning Palace where the empress lived every day.

They changed their ways to get close to Qi Heng, but they were blocked one by one by the queen.

As time passed, the concubines in the harem became dissatisfied, and some rumors spread to the stubborn speaker.

Then through the hands of someone with a heart, the matter gradually became serious, and the court actually gave birth to the voice that the queen is the demon queen.

If it is not stopped, the queen's reputation as the demon queen will be confirmed.

Qi Heng came back this time to deal with this matter.

It took him two days to deal with this matter. Several courtiers in the court were demoted, and the concubines who were involved in the matter in the harem were also thrown into the cold palace.

Qi Heng originally thought that he would be able to deal with these matters soon and return to Chashan Town again, but he was caught up in chores and couldn't leave for a while.

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, red lanterns were hung up everywhere in Chashan Town, and blessing characters were pasted up. The sound of yelling was everywhere in the town, and the atmosphere of the New Year became more intense.

It's just that Qi Yuan has been a little depressed these two days.

Because he found that since the academy was on vacation, he couldn't find a suitable reason to meet Jiang Xiaoxiao for several days.

And she also stayed in the village all day without going out.

Jiang Xiaoxiao is making dumplings at home today, and there is a custom of eating dumplings today.

Jiang Xiaoyue was also learning to make dumplings. The dumplings she made at the beginning always cracked and were ugly. Fortunately, Zhou Qiuju taught her a few more times, and she made them look decent.

Wei Yumei made many kinds of meat fillings, including leek pork filling, cabbage pork filling, mushroom stuffing and so on.

The whole family is full of belly.

That night, after eating dumplings, Jiang He went to the village chief's house.

Song Youkui waved his hands quickly after hearing him explain his intentions: "That's impossible, we all go to your house for dinner, I don't know how much money it will cost you, what kind of pot does your restaurant sell? It will cost you a tael of silver!"

"Uncle Song, it doesn't cost much. If you really feel sorry, everyone can bring some vegetables from the field. I also made some money from the restaurant I opened in the town. I think everyone will have a good time during the Chinese New Year. "

Jiang He didn't give him a chance to refuse, "Then it's settled, I've bought all the meat, and if you don't come by then, the meat will have to spoil."

Song Youkui couldn't see the food being wasted the most, so he couldn't sit still, "I'll just inform everyone, it's a pity to waste food."

Looking up and seeing the triumphant smile on the corner of Jiang He's mouth, what Song Youkui didn't understand was that Jiang He told him that on purpose, otherwise everyone wouldn't be going.

"Okay, I see, I will come tomorrow."

As soon as the people left, Song Youkui said to his wife, "Go to the yard and choose two chickens and ducks, and bring them to Jiang He for dinner tomorrow."

When the villagers of Jinhua Village heard that Jiang He invited everyone to eat hot pot, everyone had different reactions.

Some people think that Jiang He is really kind.

Some people feel embarrassed to take advantage of others.

But no matter how everyone reacted, everyone's final opinions were unified, and they all took out the best things from their own family collections, and planned to bring them to him at dinner tomorrow.

The children in Murakami danced happily, almost too excited to fall asleep.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and Jiang Xiaoxiao is still up. There is a custom of keeping the year old on New Year's Eve, so the lucky money is naturally indispensable.

She was packing lucky money for her family, not only Jiang Xiaoyue had it, but she had prepared a copy for everyone in the family, including the children in the sister-in-law's belly.

Everyone is ten taels of silver.

After packing the new year's money, Jiang Xiaoxiao took out the red envelopes from the cabinet, and filled them one by one with the copper coins she specially exchanged from the bank.

Each red envelope contained ten copper plates, which were distributed to the children in the village.

Although not much, it is also her heart.

The main reason is that everyone laughed and shouted, that sometimes they would leave some of the wild fruits they found in the mountains for her and Yueyue, which made her feel very precious.

What's more, she has also earned some silver now. Ten copper coins are neither too much nor too little for the people in the village, and they are within the range they can accept.

After thinking about it, Jiang Xiaoxiao took out three more porcelain bottles and filled them with three drops of undiluted spiritual spring water.

This is the "lucky money" for glutinous rice balls, black bears and Jiang Jiang.

After doing all this, she fell into a deep sleep.

the next day.

When it was just dawn, people in the village came to the door with their own chickens, ducks, eggs and duck eggs.

Some people didn't have chickens at home, so they were embarrassed to do it in vain, and simply went to the river to fish for fish.

Everyone didn't dare to leave the chickens and ducks indiscriminately, so they kept carrying them.

The chickens and ducks fluttered, trying to break free, but because of the drag on their wings, they could only kick their paws indiscriminately.

"Karma..."

Suddenly, a duck from an unknown family called, as if a switch had been turned on, and such sounds followed one after another.

"Quack...quack..."

"Heck...heck..."

The crowing of various chickens and poultry came from outside the gate of the blue-brick courtyard.

Wei Yumei heard the voice coming out, and what she saw was such a scene, the corners of her mouth twitched.

She understood something, and pretended to be angry with a stern face: "Take all these things back quickly, my chickens and ducks will hardly be able to support them, or I will be angry."

Her stern face is still very frightening. People who are close to Wei Yumei have already figured out her temperament, and they are not afraid of her now.

"This is not for you. We heard that Jiang He's daughter-in-law is pregnant, so we brought it for her."

"That's right, stew this chicken for Jiang He's daughter-in-law, and give birth to a fat boy in the coming year."

Everyone agreed as if they had made an appointment.

Wei Yumei could speak as much as she opened her mouth, but she couldn't speak to so many people. It happened that Jiang Xiaoxiao ran out when she heard the movement, her mind moved slightly, and she waved to her: "Xiaoxiao, come here."
