Chapter 174 New Year's Eve Dinner 2

The New Year is coming soon. Early in the morning, Jiuer and Zhulian were waiting in front of Xia Mengning's bed. Wu Qing went back to spend the New Year with her family, but Xia Mengning did not stay. After all, Dr. Wu must also miss his daughter very much.

Xia Mengning opened her eyes in the haze and saw two more figures in front of her bed. Xia Mengning sat up with her arms, lifted the tent with her bare hands, and saw Zhulian and Jiu'er biting their ears and whispering.

Seeing that Xia Mengning woke up, Zhulian and Jiu'er hurried forward and smiled, "Miss is awake."

Xia Mengning nodded, and a big lucky orange and a lucky bag were stuffed in her hand. The oranges were cold, and only a festive red rope was tied to the pedicle. The lucky bag was embroidered with exquisite patterns. Xia Mengning looked at it and heard Zhulian and Jiu'er say in unison, "Happy New Year, good health."

Xia Mengning smiled and stretched out her hand to tap the foreheads of the two people in the air, "You two..."

After getting dressed and getting out of bed, Zhulian waited on Xia Mengning to wash her, and then combed her hair. Xia Mengning took two red envelopes from the dressing table and handed them over. "Don't think I don't know what you two are thinking, ah, red envelopes..."

The two took it over happily. At this moment, a familiar voice sounded behind themselves, "I wonder if there is my red envelope?"

Jiu'er and Zhulian turned their heads and saw Changsun Yun in a dark red robe. They looked at each other and walked down with a smile.

Xia Mengning picked up a tedious hollowed-out sparrow drawing hairpin on her head, curled her lips and said, "Why did you come uninvited?"

Changsun Yun walked to Xia Mengning's side with a smile, reached out and picked it in the dressing box. Finally, he took a fancy to a golden Ruyi and joint hairpin. He got up and walked behind Xia Mengning, pulled out the hesitant hairpin of Xia Mengning, and gently inserted the one he chose.

Xia Mengning looked left and right in the mirror and seemed to be dissatisfied, so she closed her hand.

Chang Sun Yun looked in the mirror behind Xia Mengning and said with a smile, "A smile falls into the city."

Xia Mengning smiled and saw Chang Sun Yun's clothes in the mirror. She turned around and said, "You are finally willing to change your white clothes."

With that, he also looked at Changsun Yun's body. Changsun Yun also stood up cooperatively and catered to Xia Mengning's eyes. Finally, he didn't forget to ask, "How's it? Is it beautiful?"

Xia Mengning covered her mouth and smiled, "It's beautiful."

The two simple words made Changsun Yun very satisfied. He slightly hooked his lips, and an evil smile bloomed, which made Xia Mengning look straight.

It was the first time I saw a man pay so much attention to his appearance, but this dark red robe was very suitable for Changsun Yun. Originally, Changsun Yun was used to wear white clothes, and his whole body looked free and unrestrained. However, as soon as the red clothes were on his upper body, Changsun Yun's evil temperament immediately stood out. The slight smile just now made Xia Mengning feel ashamed.

Why are there men in the world who are more charming than women?

Seeing that Xia Mengning lost her mind, Changsun Yun was very satisfied. He sat next to Xia Mengning again, reached out and held her hand. He smiled and said, "Ninger, after tonight's New Year's Eve dinner, there will be fireworks in the palace. I'll pick you up."

Xia Mengning was stunned. She still knows this custom. There is a custom in Beijing that is different from other countries. After the New Year's Eve dinner, men, women, old and young will go out of the house and come to the street to celebrate the arrival of the New Year with neighbors and people in the city. At this time, people will also be sent to light fireworks in front of the palace. To entertain the people of the whole city.

For this purpose, an attic that is most suitable for watching fireworks has been built in the palace, and the emperor personally nominated it as a 'ppreciative building'.

In the past, only Fang and Xia Mengxi could go to the palace to see fireworks. They and their mother could only stay in the house and could not even go to the street. Even at the New Year's Eve dinner, they and their mother were not allowed to serve.

Xia Mengning remembered the past, and her face was slightly distracted. The strength of Changsun Yun's hand increased a little, and Xia Mengning suddenly came to her senses and looked at Changsun Yun confusedly.

Xia Mengning is used to be calm and moderate, and the joy and anger never show on her face. Now Changsun Yun sees that Xia Mengning's eyes are slightly hazy and confused, and there is a trace of softness and heartache in his heart. She leans forward slightly and steals a kiss on Xia Mengning's lips.

Xia Mengning suddenly pushed him away, stared at him and said, "Changsun Yun..."

Changsun Yun loved her so much. Xia Mengning, who was calm in peace, was completely different. Changsun Yun couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch Xia Mengning's face.

The skin of the tentacles was silky, and Changsun Yun couldn't put it down more and more. Xia Mengning blushed and roared, "Changsun Yun, what are you doing?"

Changsun Yun suddenly came to his senses. Seeing that Xia Mengning was looking at himself with an unhappy face, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Ning'er, you look very angry..."

Xia Mengning blushed and patted Chang Sun Yun's hand as a disgust. "What do you want to say such meaty words early in the morning?"

Changsun Yun didn't mind at all. Instead, he enjoyed the time of flirting with Xia Mengning. He stretched out his hand to rub Xia Mengning's hand and held it and said, "You have never seen fireworks in the palace. Watching it on the Shangxin Building will definitely make you unforgettable."

In fact, Xia Mengning doesn't expect much from the bottom of her heart. She has lived a new life. She doesn't care much about these things that she is looking forward to in her previous life. What she cares most about is how to consolidate the rights in her hand, and how to protect the happiness of her mother and Kang'er.

Looking up and seeing Chang Sun Yun's appearance, Xia Mengning finally smiled, "Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

Changsun Yun smiled, but for a moment, he turned his face and whispered a few words in Xia Mengning's ear. Xia Mengning's expression changed from surprise to affirmation. Finally, Changsun Yun pulled back and looked at Xia Mengning and said, "How about it?"

Xia Mengning thought about it carefully and said, "Can you make sure it is correct? Don't make mistakes."

Changsun Yun stretched out his hand and pinched Xia Mengning's face and said with a smile, "Can't you trust your husband and me? Since I dare to do it, I will definitely succeed."

Xia Mengning shook her head, stretched out her hand to break his hand, and said, "Okay, I know. You'd better go back quickly."

Chang Sun Yun looked outside, nodded, winked at Xia Mengning, and then turned around and left.

Xia Mengning finished grooming and went to Rongfu Hall in neat clothes.

Outside Rongfu Hall, he had already seen that the whole Rongfu Hall had taken on a new look. Xia Mengning looked at it, didn't say anything, and walked in with Jiu'er.

The little girl at the door saw Xia Mengning and hurriedly saluted, "I have seen Miss San."

Xia Mengning smiled and said, "Look at you, how old are you?"

The girl didn't expect Xia Mengning to talk to her. She was flattered for a moment and hurriedly lowered her head and said, "I'm a new girl who just came to the house. I'm nine years old this year."

Xia Mengning nodded and inadvertently turned her head and smiled at Jiu'er. "Look, I'm one year younger than you. No wonder this small body is just like this."

After Xia Mengning finished speaking, she motioned to Jiu'er. Jiu'er took out a piece of red paper wrapped in broken silver from her pocket and handed it over. "Miss San will reward you."

Qiaoer was stunned, and then looked at Xia Mengning at a loss. As soon as Xia Mengning touched the eyes, she was slightly stunned. How long has it been since she saw such clear and harmless eyes.

Thinking of this, Xia Mengning smiled again, "Receive it, New Year's red envelope."

After saying this, Qiaoer took the red envelope uneasily and knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times.

At this time, the thick Fu-character door curtain was lifted, and Chen's mother came out with a smile on her face. When she saw Xia Mengning, she seemed to be surprised, "The old slave has met Miss San."

Xia Mengning looked at the expression in Chen's mother's eyes, but she smiled unchangedly and said, "There is no need to be polite."

This mother Chen had already hidden behind the curtain to eavesdrop, but she came out at this time. Xia Mengning knew what she was thinking, but she disdained to break it.

These people still don't pay attention to themselves. After all, how many waves can a few small fish jump out?

Mother Chen straightened up and smiled kindly. When she turned her head, she changed her face with Qiaoer. "I don't know what to do. Miss San is here. Why don't you invite her in first? If Miss San's daughter's body is cold, can you afford it?"

These words were a little embarrassing. Jiu'er was not happy. She turned her head and saw Xia Mengning's eyes hanging down, and Jiu'er knew Xia Mengning's heart.

Thinking of this, Jiu'er said, "What did Mother Chen say? It's unlucky to say that the young lady will die during the Spring Festival. This little girl is very close to the third lady, so the third lady asked a few more words. How can it become another meaning in your mouth? Although I am young, I am not as senior as you, but this What should I say? What should I say? I can tell the maidservant. Otherwise, let's go in and talk to the old lady to see if what the maidservant said is reasonable?

Jiu'er wore a neat light red jacket, combed a thick hemp braid on her chest, and looked straight at Mother Chen with a pair of big eyes. She spoke lightly and crisply, with a clever look. At this time, it made Chen's old face a little unbearable.

Xia Mengning listened to Jiu'er's accusation of gun and stick. She was secretly happy. She secretly pinched the palm of Jiu'er's hand, but her face was cold. She suddenly shook off Jiu'er's hand and said, "You girl, how can you talk to Mother Chen? Mother Chen is an old man in front of her grandmother. How can you be so ignorant?"

Although Xia Mengning's words were to blame Jiu'er, she did not admit that Jiu'er was wrong. She just repeatedly emphasized that Chen's mother was the old man in front of Xie's family. In this way, it seemed that some Chen's mother was scolding Xia Mengning because of her seniority.

Hearing this, Jiu'er seemed to be shocked. She knelt on the ground with a 'plop' and said repeatedly, "I dare not, I dare not."

Listening to the master and servant singing and getting together, although Mother Chen was angry, she did not dare to show it. She had to calm down and reluctantly smiled, "What Miss Jiu'er said is that the old slave is old and really confused a lot. Don't be surprised, Miss San."

Xia Mengning smiled and said to Chen's mother, "Mother Chen doesn't have to be polite. It's because this slave is not good, and she always speaks carelessly..."

Stop here, Xia Mengning's words are a little meaningful. It seems to be satirizing Chen's mother's behavior, which makes people find faults, but they can't pick it out.

Xia Mengning said, and then turned to Jiu'er, who was still kneeling on the ground, "Why don't you thank Mother Chen for not to blame?"

As soon as Jiu'er heard this, she knelt down to Chen's mother and said repeatedly, "My maidservant, thank my mother Chen, for not remembering the villain."

Looking at Jiu'er standing up, Chen's mother was so angry that she almost fainted. She had been in front of the old lady for so many years, and no one dared to fool herself like this. This third lady really underestimated her before, simply thinking that she was just a little smart.

As soon as this idea got into Chen's mother's head, Chen's mother immediately realized that no, she could never let her be so arrogant. She was going to tell the old lady and let her guard against the third lady.

It's just a pity. If Chen's mother's consciousness could be earlier, it might still be useful. Will Xia Mengning be afraid of a Xie family now?
