Jiang Si stared at him coldly. He didn't even try to hide his disgust before he said, ”Master Hou, you can stay for the night. I'm going to the side room to sleep.”

Lan Yu helplessly looked at the girl's back as she disappeared into the distance. Lying alone on the bed, she felt even more upset.

On the day before New Year's Eve, snow began to fall again.

Although the weather was cold, the joyous atmosphere of the new spring still permeated every nook and cranny.

The streets and alleyways were decorated with lanterns, lanterns, couplets and window flowers hung from every household.

The New Year in Wei Dynasty has a custom, New Year's Eve from the last day of the Lantern Festival, a whole 16 days can be set up in the night market.

During this period of time, no curfew is imposed. Those who like to travel through the night can enjoy the scenery through the night.

The only worry was that Mother Ding and Dan Xue's injuries would not be fully healed. Although she had taken the medicine and scabbed her wounds quickly, she had lost a lot of blood and would probably be able to heal them soon.

Having just eaten breakfast, Su Zhi was busy frying tofu balls and fish in the kitchen.

Jin and Soybean Bun were gluttonous, sneaking in from time to time to steal their mouths.

”Hurry up and stop eating. Such a greasy dish, it's not good to eat too much in the morning.”

Bi Yue peeled the beans and dotingly looked at the two kids. She happily said, ”It's the new year, so let the two young masters go.”

Su Zhi took out a big bowl of longan silver ear soup and handed it to the two gluttons. ”Kids eat less oily food, especially A Jin. You've eaten too much of the meat, so stop choking.”

The two of them took the soup and ran outside.

”Madam, it's too tiring for you to do all this work alone. You shouldn't have let the helpers the general sent back.”

”It's the new year, so they have to stay with their families. The only people who can reunite these few days are them. No matter what, they have to take a vacation, right?”

At the mention of reunion, Su Zhi thought of Xiao Qian with a sour feeling in her heart.

She looked at the neighbors gathering happily. Then, she looked at how she was holding her own furniture while the two in the house didn't have any injuries. It could be said that this New Year had passed with a lot of unhappiness.

Just as he was lost in thought, he heard someone knocking on his door.

Bi Yue packed up her things and patted the hem of her skirt. ”I'll go take a look. Maybe it's another family that sent spring cakes over.”

The neighbors in Spring Leaf Lane were all very friendly. Every family prepared spring cakes or candies for the new year's festival and distributed them according to the number of households. You made the spring roll, I gave you some pie, she made the sugar, who changed the pattern and gave it away.

Su Zhi had already sent out two big pots of tofu balls early in the morning, and the amount she had bought was almost insufficient. When she heard the knock on the door, she was still wondering who had sent over the things? Counting the number of houses in the vicinity, it had already been sent out.

”Madam, please come out quickly. The Liu Family has sent someone.”

Hearing that it was someone from the Liu Family, Su Zhi quickly wiped her hands clean and went out to welcome them.

”Greetings to Madam. This lowly one has been ordered to deliver an invitation to Madam.”

Su Zhi recognized the servant who had come to the door. He was the one who had been sent last time, but tomorrow was New Year's Eve. Every family had reunited with her, so how could the Liu Family remember her?

”Bro, you're here to send me a post again?”

The manservant nodded and replied, ”Yes, Aunt Liu originally wanted to meet you. Now that you mention it, our master also thinks of you. He wants you to come to our residence for a visit, it won't take you long. ”

Su Zhi originally did not plan to visit them everywhere, just like how she would spend time with a child at home. However, when Eldest Aunt Liu and Old mister Liu asked to see her, Su Zhi did not say anything to reject them.

”Alright then, I'll go with you.” He also paid back the silver coins that he should have.

Su Zhi entered the house and changed into clean clothes. After instructing Bi Yue to look after the things in the kitchen, she went out with the servant.

The snow on the streets and alleyways had been swept up. Passing by the market, he found that the small vendors who had been quiet a few days ago had started to gather together again.

There should be something interesting happening in the near future.
