Translator: 549690339

The thin-skinned Xu Erlang looked at his elder brother and then at his father. His mouth couldn’t help but Twitch a few times.

In the awkward atmosphere, Xu Qi ‘an cleared his throat and said, ”

“It smells so good. I think I can smell little sister lingyue’s cooking.

“Second uncle, I won’t rest until I’m drunk tonight.”

The awkward atmosphere was broken, and the three men tacitly hid the bag of green oranges by their side, pretending not to see it.

During this process, Xu Qi ‘an glanced at Erlang and saw that his expression had not changed. He had already concealed his embarrassment.

In the past two years, Erlang had grown a lot. When he hung himself in the old house while reciting poems. he was so terrified that he wanted to die on the spot when his family found out … Xu Qi ‘an thought of the past and felt emotional.

The three of them entered the residence and went straight to the inner hall.

The candles in the inner hall were bright, and a few ice dumplings were hanging under the eaves. The aroma of food floated out from the open door.

There were many servants coming and going in the inner courtyard, and a few pretty maidservants were added.

In the month he had been away from the capital, the Xu estate had bought many servants.

many people in the capital’s territory also froze to death. Their families happened to be short of servants, so your aunt asked the housekeeper to buy some servants from the kitchen. At least they had a way to live.

Second uncle Xu said.

Xu Qi ‘an nodded. Although her aunt was narrow-minded, prideful, and thought of herself as a little fairy, she had a lot of flaws. However, a woman who was pampered, carefree, and didn’t need to fight for favor couldn’t have a bad heart.

Lin ‘an was also an example. It was fortunate that Emperor Yuan jing had cultivated for many years and the palace lacked the soil for infighting. If one had lived in such an atmosphere for a long time, Lin’ an might not be as innocent and kind as it was now.

“It’s a year of great calamity, there’s nothing we can do.” Xu Qi ‘an turned his head and looked at Xu nianxin. He smiled and said, ”

“Then why didn’t Auntie buy a Tongfang for Erlang?”

haha! second uncle Xu laughed. the second son will be engaged to the first assistant Minister’s daughter in two months. Your aunt would not dare to offend the first assistant Minister’s daughter.

Xu cijiu furrowed his brows, a little displeased with his elder brother and father’s teasing.

As they spoke, the three of them entered the inner hall, where charcoal braziers for heating were placed in the four corners. There was a sumptuous spread of food on the table, all sorts of delicacies. This was clearly not the norm for dinner at the Xu residence.

His aunt and lingyue were sitting at the coffee table, while Xu lingying and Lina were sitting at the table, staring at the food.

“Lingying, don’t think about eating secretly. Wait for your big brother to come back before you eat.”

His aunt warned.

“Oh ~”

Xu Ling knelt on the stool, her small hands on the edge of the table. She reluctantly retracted her gaze and looked out of the hall, just in time to see the three masters return.

“Big brother!”

ah! the little boy shouted in anger. He jumped down from the stool, put his hands on his waist, and opened them behind him. He buried his head and rushed over aggressively.

Xu Pingzhi and Xu niannian stepped aside at the same time.

The little boy ran into Xu Qi ‘an’s arms.
