message."The Emperor said, although these people deserved their punishment, they were still a hundred or so lives. As the princess was a girl, carrying such a bad reputation would make it difficult f...A young boy lay here, sometime unknown. His hands were pillowing his head behind him, and a blade of grass was nestled in his mouth. He seemed to be very relaxed.

Unfortunately, he underestimated the power of winter. His face turned blue with cold, and his nose was red as a carrot, quite a pathetic sight...

Winter Plum carried a pot of bean sprouts out from the kitchen. Seeing Mu Xu sneeze and come in from outside, she smiled and said, “Little Mu, where did you come back from Why didn’t you put on a thick coat”

Mu Xu smiled and replied, "There's a stray dog in the village, I went to take a look. Thank you, Mei Yi, for your concern. I'll go back now and put on my thick coat."

Mei Yi nodded and instructed, "Go to the kang and warm up for a while. Eat some fruit to line your stomach. I'm going next door to deliver a bowl of bean sprouts. When I get back with the meal, we'll eat."

"Good!" Mu Xu replied, and went into the house...

In Li's house next door, a big iron pot was bubbling merrily over the stove.

I got up early and simmered bone broth, poured it into a half basin of shredded pickled mustard greens, and simmered it for more than an hour.

At this point, add the frozen tofu, the meat from the pig bone that has been carefully removed, and then arrange slices of cooked pork belly on top. This is what a high-end version of killing pig dish looks like.

It's a shame there isn't any pork being slaughtered, otherwise adding the new blood sausage would make it a top-tier meal.

A steaming bowl piled high, then sprinkle in a few bits of the half-charred chili peppers from the stove.

That aroma, that spice, that tang, could make your five internal organs, even your very bones, feel the heat!

If you don't like chili peppers, you can also mash some garlic and add some soy sauce. That's another delicious option.

When Shuiyun was free, she came over to help. She was just scooping out the pork killing vegetables from a large pot.

Mr. Zhao and several other elder gentlemen received a pot, and Hui Niang and her son ate at the village head's house and also received a pot.

Liu Yang returned from a long journey today and is home. I'd like to give him a pot

The neighboring Wen family and Ye family...

Although the pot of pork killing dishes looked plentiful, after dividing it up, there was only about half a pot left. However, that's still enough for our family to eat.

Winter Plum entered the main hall and spoke to Tao Hongying. When she mentioned going into the city tomorrow, Tao Hongying said, "The Marquis is coming back soon, is there anything your courtyard needs to add"

"Although, I'll get them ready anyway."

Winter Plum quickly shook her head and smiled, "The Hou Mansion sent word that the Steward had arranged everything. If Madam Four is convenient, please help me bring it back from the Hou Mansion."

"They must all be new bedding and clothing, shoes and socks!"

It's a small matter, Tao Hongying readily agreed.

Just as Jia Yin was helping Grandma over from behind, she heard this and said, “Mother, take me with you tomorrow.”

"Just right, I'm going to Baiyun Guan and Xipu to have a look. I also want to go to the restaurant to make two dishes for my third brother!"

Tao Hongying instinctively wanted to refuse, but then she remembered that the Wu family had already been arrested. She said, "You can go with me too, bring Shui Ling and Shui Yun, and keep them by your side at all times."

And tomorrow, Second Madam Jia will be going to the banquet with me. Perhaps she'll bring along Baozhu. You wouldn't mind accompanying Baozhu for a while, would you

"Well, she asked me for some small pearls last time, so I have a box ready for her." Jia Yin was bursting with excitement; just the thought of going out made her giddy.

... everyone burst into laughter ...

That evening, it was rare for both Li Zhensheng and Li Lao'er to return and have dinner together. They also brought back the Emperor's imperial decree.

Having heard that General Tang entered the capital, Jia Yi could have his merits offset against his crimes and be released from prison. The Li family, young and old, were overjoyed.

Although it was expected, getting the confirmation brought peace of mind to everyone.

As for those memorials, the officials who secretly undermined others would naturally be countered by Li Lao Er and his brothers Jia Ren, with Mr. Wen's assistance.

Let's just treat this as practice for the younger generation...

The next morning, after breakfast, Tao Hongying took Jia Yin out.

Tao Hongying brought along Lin Mama, Jia Yin brought Shui Ling and Shui Yun, just in time for a carriage.

Yèshān drove the carriage, Mùxǔ also jumped onto the other side of the chariot and smiled at Yèshān.

Yēsān didn't chase him, and with a flick of his whip, he set off.

Today is the full moon wine for the grandson of Mrs. Jia's natal family, the Gou family. Tao Hongying usually goes in and out of the Jia family and gets along well with Mrs. Jia. Besides, the Gou family also has a son serving in the Northern Expedition Army.

So, Gǒu's family invited Táo Hóngyīng through Jǐa Dàfū's hand.

Tao Hongying wore a set of silver jewelry, not particularly valuable, but the workmanship was extremely delicate, especially suitable for children to wear.

The mother and daughter reunited with Jia Erfu and Baozhu at the gate of Gou's house and then walked into the courtyard.

When Baozhu saw Jiayin, she was overjoyed. She leaned close to Jiayin's ear and whispered, "My cousin complained to my mother about me last time I went home."

"I was made to kneel for an hour by my mother, and I have to copy the rules for women every day. Waaah, she doesn't even give me any snacks, she's trying to kill me!"

Jia Yin listened with amusement and couldn't help gloating, "Who let you sneak out Luckily, we had so many people that day. Otherwise, if something had really happened, your mother would have broken your legs."

"Oh dear, I know I was wrong." Baozhu said with shame, "I haven't seen you in ages, I got so excited I just blurted it out. I won't do it again next time."

"I always envy that you're a county princess, but looking at it this way, being a county princess seems too dangerous.

"I don't want to be a nun, I'd rather just be my mother's daughter. Being able to eat snacks and go out to play is enough for me."

Jia Yin rolled her eyes and secretly pinched her, "Don't say it like that, as if you could just become one!"

The agate giggled and dodged when it was tickled.

Two little girls, with smiles as bright as flowers, walked in from outside, naturally drawing the attention of many people.

An unmarried woman didn't know, so she asked someone she knew. After getting the answer, her expression became rather complex...

It's a joyous occasion for the Gou family to have a new addition. Everyone brought gifts to celebrate, gathered around Old Mrs. Gou, and chatted happily. They looked at the little baby in the swaddling clothes with smiles on their faces.

A child, a new hope for life, always softens one's heart and makes one eager to bestow blessings.

Soon, the child was carried away. The feast wouldn't be starting for a while, so everyone went to stroll in the garden.

Grandfather Gou loved odd stones. He spent a lot of manpower and money collecting them from all over the world, selecting the hundred or so he liked best to put in his garden.

Every visitor who comes to the door will take a look at the novelty.

It has to be said, Mr. Gou's eye for stones is exceptional. The garden is filled with peculiar stones, some oddly shaped, others unusually textured. Some stand upright, others lie flat, transforming the garden into a stony forest.

Baozhu and Jiayin walked ahead, here looking there going, Shui Ling and Shuiyun followed behind, gradually drifting away from the crowd.

When Jiayin lost sight of her mother, she clutched the precious pearl and sought a sheltered spot facing the sun to rest for a while, waiting patiently.

Shuiling stood aside, Shuiyun went to find someone to get hot tea and warm the hands of the masters.

As it happened, someone was walking by at that moment and started chatting idly.

A sharp-tongued woman's voice said, "Do you see Princess Kang Le The one wearing the brocade pipa skirt And her mother, Mrs. Li Si"

Another woman's voice, low and gentle, replied, "I see. What's the matter The Gou family and the Jia family are in-laws, and the Li family has always been close to the Jia family. It's nothing unusual to come here for a congratulatory visit."

"Oh, I didn't mean that!" the sharp-tongued woman retorted. "I meant that the Li family really has thick skin."

Their son just killed someone and is now in jail, but they're acting like nothing happened and came out to celebrate the wedding!

"Well, it makes sense. That boy belongs to the second branch, not the fourth. Of course they wouldn't care."

"People say the Li brothers are close, but I don't think so!"stily""Hahaha!" Even the Noble Consort was heard laughing uproariously, her laughter gradually turning manic.She wiped away tears of laughter, sarcastically asking, “Yes, Your Majesty does indeed sho...
