After I became a widow

The Su family didn't go to the New Year's Eve banquet.

At first, many people laughed at the boldness of the Su family, but the son dared to shame the emperor when he fell into the water, and dared not even come to the banquet of the officials.

The officials who were punished even laughed at the Su family and Su Jingqing for taking themselves seriously, waiting for the emperor to get angry and punish the Su family.

Although their sons and grandsons were fined because King Yi refused to come out to defend them, but after all, the emperor punished them to give Su Jingqing an explanation, so the Su family and Su Jingqing must be blamed for this.

It's just that the result was completely different from what they thought. Not only did the emperor not get angry, he even rewarded the Su family on the spot. The reward flowed out from the palace, and then entered the Su family, without even going to Duke Huai's mansion.

The Son of Heaven made them very uncomfortable, so they could only secretly think that the Su family gave birth to a good son, who climbed up to be King Huai, and got all these benefits by serving the man.

Of course, these words are not dared to say, they are not so stupid, they know what the consequences will be if they are heard by the emperor.

Because something happened earlier, the emperor was in a bad mood, and the feast of the ministers was tasteless, and soon ended hastily.

Many people walked together and lamented the emperor's love for Duke Huai, so much that even one of Duke Huai's male concubines paid so much attention to it.

Some people also regretted it, why did the Su family take this good thing away, if they had asked for a favor and married their son or daughter to Duke Huai, wouldn't the favor belong to their family today?

Moreover, they are definitely more knowledgeable than the Su family. They put King Huai first in everything and only listen to the emperor's words.

"Speaking of which, the Emperor originally wanted to choose two noble concubines for Duke Huai at the Fang Fang Banquet. Now that they are noble concubines, when His Highness Duke Huai is conferred in the future, then..."

I didn't finish my words, but I understood everything.

Today is a noble concubine, after Duke Huai is established as the crown prince, the noble concubine can become a side concubine, and when she ascends the throne in the future, at least she will be a concubine.

Someone clapped their hands regretfully, "It's a pity, it didn't work out, and after this incident, the emperor probably won't mention the matter of taking a concubine to Duke Huai again."

"If the emperor doesn't mention it, then ask His Highness Duke Huai, how can this man be lecherous."

As soon as the words came out, many people nodded and stroked their beards in agreement.

There were also sober people who passed by who disdain and sneered, the emperor only dared to force Princess Huai to take a concubine for Duke Huai while Duke Huai was not waiting.

A group of idiots who only want to rely on their daughters to climb up.

The Su family and Su Jingqing couldn't hear these discussions, and the Su family was having a lively reunion dinner.

Su Jingqing has been getting better day by day since the fever subsided, and he has avoided eating for a few days, and today he can finally have a serious meal.

It's just that he can't eat too much meat, but he can be full with rice and vegetarian dishes, so he immerses himself in cooking and eats it deliciously.

Su's father brought Mrs. Sun to accompany him to drink with the wine, and smacked his lips contentedly, "I thought that the eldest brother would not be able to celebrate the New Year at home this year, but I didn't expect to be able to stay at home because of a blessing in disguise, good!"

He picked up the wine glass and directed Su Jingqing, "Come on, son, use your soup to go with dad."

Su Jingqing picked up his soup cup and touched his father for the third time.

Che Jilu's words had been repeated several times, and Mrs. Sun was tired of drinking with him.

After drinking with Su Jingqing, it was Su Mingyan's turn. Su's father was happy that he didn't have to be Xiao Yunyi's concubine. Even Xiao Yunyi and Zhong Guifei didn't have time to say the word of accepting him as a concubine in public. Su's father felt happy and should drink one.

Su Mingyan followed Shale and cooperated very well.

"Father, I will get married next year, and I won't give Prince Yi the slightest chance!"

He raised his glass, "Happy!"

What Su Jingqing drank was soup, and what he drank was tea. Except Su's father and Mrs. Sun, the three brothers and sisters did not drink alcohol. As a result, Su Mingyan drank so much that he looked like he was almost drunk from drinking tea.

The younger sister didn't want to play such a boring game of clinking glasses with her father, and Sun didn't allow him to take her daughter to drink, so the younger sister got peace and concentrated on cooking.

When Su's father turned back to talk to Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Sun gave him a sideways glance and gave him a chopstick dish, "Eat yours, don't drink it."

Su's father smiled and bargained with Mrs. Sun, "Drink three more cups, just three cups, and I won't drink today after drinking."

"Dish," Sun reminded, but did not refuse Father Su's request.

Su's father quickly ate the food, and stopped clinking glasses with his wife and son. He drank slowly by himself, and sighed when he finished, "It's a pity, the prince is not here. If the prince is here, our family will be a real reunion. I can still be together." If you drink with the prince until you are not drunk, you will never return."

"Let's wait until next year. I'll dig out the altar of wine buried in the yard next year and drink it with the prince."

Father Su didn't like people like Xiao Yunyi, and was also somewhat dissatisfied with the emperor, but he didn't vent his anger on Xiao Beihuai. Duke Huai was incompatible with the rest of the Xiao family, and he didn't look like a family.

Su's father was quite sorry, how could Duke Huai be born in the royal family, if he was the son of an ordinary family, it would definitely be smoother with Qing'er than it is now.

Su Jingqing didn't think of Xiao Beihuai very often, probably from the moment the black-robed man appeared, he understood that before those people were resolved, it was impossible for him to get bored with Xiao Beihuai often.

But whenever someone mentioned Xiao Beihuai, he would miss him.

The emotions are not too strong, but I just want to see that person, just take a look or say a word.

Mrs. Sun elbowed Su's father, "Eat yours."

Seeing Su Jingqing's obviously absent-minded reaction, Su's father whispered to Mrs. Sun, "It seems that our boss really cares about Duke Huai, and it's all covered."

Sun rolled her eyes, "You only know."

If he didn't care about it, how could he be willing to marry him, and willingly handle those troublesome things for Duke Huai.

"My son is too big to stay," Su's father drank the rest of the wine sadly, and began to eat.

After eating, he began to praise the delicious food. Su Mingyan was very supportive, arguing with his father about which dish was the best, and the family had a very lively meal.

Of course, what made Su's father regret the most was, "The Eighteen Arhats asked the boss to arrange for them to go out to do things, otherwise they could be asked to perform for fun."

Su Jingqing was wiping his mouth after drinking the soup, thinking that his father didn't suffer at all, and he was going to maximize the usefulness of the Eighteen Arhats.

But there are no Eighteen Arhats to watch, but there are fireworks to watch. From New Year's Eve to Lantern Festival, there are fireworks every night from big families, and the Yamen in Kyoto will also set off fireworks.

There are not many people in the Su family, but it is usually not crowded on New Year's Eve, and it will be a few days later.

In previous years, Su Jingqing took his younger brothers and sisters to the river to release them. They placed them row after row on the ground. When they were lit, they would cover their ears and watch. The people beside them were all bringing their children to join in the fun. I am happy to see it.

This year, Su Jingqing plans to do the same.

Well, Xiao Beihuai can be added next year.

Just as he was thinking about it, Xiang Yu came out with a letter in his hand, "Young Master, the letter from the palace said it was given to you by the prince, do you want to read it now?"

After returning to Su's house, Siyan and Xiangyu changed his name to son again, and Su Jingqing didn't correct him, anyway, he was still angry.

"Look," Su Jingqing nodded.

Xiang Yu unfolded the letter to him, and Su Jingqing took it and saw that the first sentence on it was: "Qing'er, happy new year."

The next sentence is: "This king misses you."

Su Jingqing clicked his tongue, and couldn't help but sweet talk in the second letter.

Next is what Xiao Beihuai wanted to say, there were several sheets of letter paper, the first one was full of Xiao Beihuai's words to coax him, and it sounded nice, Su Jingqing looked at the corners of his mouth and turned up unconsciously.

He also said to Xiang Yu: "When we are together, we look like gourds, but when we write, we can make up the number of words."

Xiang Yu just nodded and didn't speak. He was still thinking that the prince is actually quite talkative when he is at home, especially he likes to whisper to the princess. The two of them are so intimate that it makes one's teeth sore.

After finishing the business, Xiao Beihuai justly refused the matter that his emperor's father wanted to take a concubine, and also gave a method to deal with the concubine.

Su Jingqing sneered instead, "Then he won't be able to fulfill his wish, now there are no concubines."

Su Jingqing was actually looking forward to Xiao Beihuai's reaction when he received the news that he was pushed into the lake by Xiao Yunyi.

He didn't write a letter about this matter, but he knew that Xiao Beihuai would definitely know about it, and he could ask about it when Xiao Beihuai came back.

After reading the letter, Su Jingqing didn't react much.

Xiang Yu couldn't tell whether he was happy or not, so he asked, "My lord, do you want to write a reply?"

Su Jingqing shook his head, "No, I'm angry."

With this bland tone, Xiang Yu didn't notice any sign of anger at all, so he was a little dazed.

Siyan twisted her waist and yelled at Xiangyu, "I haven't seen it yet, the young master is throwing a tantrum with the lord, and he needs to be coaxed by the lord."

Xiangyu: "..."

Among other things, Siyan understands very well now.

Xiang Yu asked, "How do you know?"

Si Yan said: "The prince's guard named Mo Yan said that men like duplicity the most."

Xiang Yu: "... makes sense."

"Of course it makes sense," Siyan said proudly, raising her chin.

Then he began to persuade Su Jingqing, "Young master, save your anger and regenerate after the prince comes back. Now that he is not here, no one will watch you when you are angry."

Su Jingqing glared at him, "Siyan, do you feel itchy and want to be beaten?"

Siyan hurriedly took two steps back, made faces at Su Jingqing, and was very happy.

Su Jingqing snorted at her, thinking that this girl wanted to turn the world upside down, so the object of her anger turned to Siyan, and called her younger siblings, "Catch Siyan, I'm going to beat her up!"

Su Mingyan has always been obedient to Su Jingqing, and when he heard this, he immediately stretched out his paws and rushed towards Siyan.The little girl paused for a moment, and felt that she should be more lively at her age, so she also went.

How could Siyan let them catch her obediently, so she started to run, and even grabbed the servants of the Su family to block her. Soon, the whole yard was full of screams.

Su Jingqing sat on the spot and warmed himself by the fire. There was a sweet potato in the brazier, and he took a handful of melon seeds and kneaded it, feeling very comfortable, "That's right, the New Year should be lively."

Xiang Yu looked at the yard, the second young master and young lady, plus half of the servants in the house were thinking about Siyan, Siyan was running around, and almost ran to the roof.

In the end, he couldn't hold on any longer, and was caught and brought in front of Su Jingqing out of breath. Su Jingqing didn't really hit her, but just smiled at Siyan, and Siyan himself admitted his mistake.

The young master is really dark enough, Xiang Yu thought silently, fortunately she is not the one who is bold.

But with this commotion, the New Year's atmosphere in the Su family was different. Su Mingyan simply took people to play in the courtyard and started arresting people. Fortunately, it was New Year's Eve, so no one would think they were noisy.

After resting for a while, Siyan, who couldn't relax, joined in again, and the laughter became louder.

Well, Father Su and Mrs. Sun are so bored over there that they don't know what to say.

Su Jingqing looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he began to steal roasted sweet potatoes.

Compared with the liveliness of the Su family, other places are not so cheerful. Some people want to change the color of this night and make it redder.
