Jin Yuxing, a mouse and cat

Today's weather is not bad, what is the so-called good weather for the new year? Coupled with the bright lights of the whole courtyard, it is even more beautiful.Red couplets have been pasted on the door and the side of the room.

Seeing Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao coming, everyone hurriedly greeted them to come and sit down.The servant served the tea, Bai Yutang took it and took a sip, but suddenly shrank his lips, making him put down the cup hastily.

"Fifth brother, what's wrong with your mouth?" Lu Fang looked up at him, put down the cup in his hand and asked.

Bai Yutang touched the corner of his mouth and said with an embarrassed smile, "It's nothing, I was scratched by the cat."

"Ahem." Sitting beside him, Zhan Zhao couldn't help coughing, and then slowly blushed.

The third master Xu Qing opened his mouth wide. Jiang Ping next to him patted him with a fan before he quickly reached out and touched his nose. Could it be that the cat that the fifth brother was talking about was Zhaodi?After thinking this way, he looked at Zhan Zhao again, and his face turned red instantly.

Zhan Zhao was very awkward right now, he looked here and there, everyone just laughed but didn't speak, so he could only ask his sister-in-law, "Where did Yunrui go?"

Min Xiuxiu smiled, "I asked the maid to find him, and he will be there later."

The maid Yun Rui didn't find him in front of him, but when she turned out of the yard, she saw him at the entrance of Fifth Master's courtyard. The maid hurriedly walked up, "Young Master, Fifth Master and the others have already gone to the front hall, why are you still here?"

After walking a few steps, Yun Rui raised his eyes, and after looking at her for a while, he slowly nodded and responded, "I know." Yun Rui sighed and touched his mouth, he only knew that kissing is something only parents would do , why two fathers can do it, he was a little confused for a while.

When Yun Rui came in with his head down, everyone had already settled down at the table, only Zhan Zhao's left was vacant, and Bai Yutang was sitting on his right, there was no doubt about it.Zhan Zhao smiled and beckoned him to come and sit. Yun Rui walked up to Bai Yutang and bowed to him, then walked up to Zhan Zhao and bowed, and then sat down.

Min Xiuxiu opened her lips and clapped her hands together. She waved and looked at Bai Fu by the door and said, "Everyone is here, let's serve."

In fact, Chinese New Year, in the final analysis, is inseparable from the word "eat". The servants who serve the dishes are carrying the dishes one after another. Look at the big table full, chicken, duck, fish, oily, and vegetarian. , really has everything.

Lu Fang and the others started drinking, and Min Xiuxiu was in charge of taking care of the two children, Lu Zhen and Zhan Xuan. She looked at Zhan Zhao and said, "Everyone, don't be too polite, let's eat! Especially Brother Zhao, this is your first time here to celebrate the New Year. .”

Zhan Zhao smiled, nodded hastily, and was not in a hurry to speak. He put the food he had already sandwiched into Yunrui's bowl, then stretched out his hand and slowly poured a cup of hot wine, and respected Min Soo-soo, "Jing Zhan Zhao Sister-in-law has a cup."

"Ouch." Min Xiuxiu was happy, let go of her chopsticks, and quickly pointed to Lu Fang to pour her wine.As for his wife, Island Master Lu naturally had to wait on him, so he quickly transferred the hot wine pot from Xu Qing's hand, and poured a glass to his wife.

Yun Rui ate the dishes Zhan Zhao picked up, and looked up at Zhan Zhao from time to time, when he saw his red lips wet with wine, Yun Rui couldn't help biting his chopsticks for a moment, then blushed and lowered his head Come on, I don't know what this kid is thinking.

Bai Yutang beside him made a toast to Du Xiao and Mei Ling with a smile, Zhan Zhao drank the glass of wine that Min Xiuxiu was toasting, and then filled another glass, facing Mei Ling and Du Xiao, "It's been so long, the two masters You have worked hard, you have worked hard for me and Yutang." After speaking, he toasted himself.

Du Xiao just smiled, then touched the cup in his hand and drank it up in one gulp.Mei Ling looked at Zhan Zhao with a serious expression, "If you know how to take care of yourself in the future, I won't be in vain before." He looked at the wine glass, pursed his lips, closed his eyes and drank with his head up.

Bai Yutang turned his head to look at Zhan Zhao, a little puzzled, why didn't he know that the cat could drink so well?Although it is said that he only drank two glasses.

At this time, Bai Fu brought another wine jar, and then he stood behind Han Zhang and said something close to his ear. After Han Zhang nodded, he backed away again.

Xu Qing took the jar of wine in Han Zhang's hand, looked at Zhan Zhao and smiled, "Zhan...cough, brother Zhao, are you going to toast our brothers too?" Xu Qing was a little awkward , and the Zhan Zhao kitten that reached his mouth told him to swallow it back.

"It's natural." Zhan Zhao poured himself the wine slowly.

Bai Yutang glanced at the brothers across the way, then grabbed Zhan Zhao's arm, "Drink less."

"It's okay, I have a sense of proportion." Zhan Zhao raised his face and raised his eyebrows at Bai Yutang. He looked in a good mood. He continued to pour the wine, raised his glass to Xu Qing, and then glanced at the other three, "Thank you, little brother." Brother's care, understanding, um...and tolerance!" He actually wanted to say thank you brothers for being able to support him and Yutang, but it didn't feel like that when he said it, and he felt a little sore when he thought about it. Zhan Zhao smiled and blinked, then raised his head and drank.

Bai Yutang pressed the corner of his mouth that was still aching and turned his head to look at Zhan Zhao, and then greeted Mei Ling who was on the side to help Du Xiao eat food.

At this time, the sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded outside, accompanied by the sound of chirping fireworks soaring into the sky, and the sky suddenly rang, which was deafening.

Han Zhang nodded and smiled, the fireworks and firecrackers were not bad this time.Seeing that Zhan Zhao wanted to pour wine, Lu Fang stood up and shouted, "Brother Zhao, drink less."

"What?" Zhan Zhao blinked, his eyes were already watery, and the sound of firecrackers was too loud, and he couldn't hear what Lu Fang was saying at all.

Bai Yutang held down his glass and casually took it along with the wine jar.Zhan Zhao raised his mouth, "What are you doing?"

"I'm here, you want to drink, tonight I will accompany you to drink to your heart's content!" Bai Yutang clasped his hands in a circle, turned his head and said in Zhan Zhao's ear.

Yun Rui beside him just turned his head to glance at them, then immediately lowered his head and started to eat.Jiang Ping on the opposite side moved his mouth in excitement, not knowing whether he was choked by the spicy food or the wine.The quietest ones were Mei Ling and Du Xiao, they seemed to be out of sight.

Near the end of the table feast, the sound from outside began to stop. Fortunately, it was played by the island, otherwise the smell of gunpowder smoke would have spread into the house.

There was not much to do on the island, so Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao if he would like to leave the island and go to the market.Zhan Zhao saw that he had nothing to do, and it would be bad to stay here, so he agreed with a smile.

After listening to their conversation, Yun Rui looked up at Bai Yutang eagerly.Fifth Master smiled, turned his head and asked, "Boy, do you want to go too?"

Yun Rui was a little timid in the face of his father, he just nodded silently.

Bai Yutang smiled, got up and went to hold his son, then told everyone in the room to go out, waved his hand and left with Zhan Zhao.

Seeing Yunrui being held by Bai Yutang's hand, Zhanxuan walked away happily, and he yelled to go too, but Du Xiao didn't hold him back, and the child ran away again, Zhanxuan bounced to Zhan Zhao's side, stretched out his hand Live with your own father.

So the two of them walked towards the ferry, each pulling a child.

Picking a slightly bigger boat, Bai Yutang called a boatman to take them off.The boat was covered with cushions, and Bai Yutang let Yun Rui and Xuan'er sit down before pulling Zhan Zhao to his side.

The boat moved, with the curtain on the boat flickering, and the scenery outside could be faintly seen.

As he approached the shore, he heard the noise of people. When the boat docked and led the two children down, Fifth Master told the boatman to remember to come and pick them up.The boatman answered and went back again.

The night market has already started to be set up now, and there are lanterns hanging from colored threads on both sides of the road. Although they have not been lit yet, it is enough to make people dazzled at night.

There are small stalls under the lanterns, some selling rice cakes and some selling wontons.There are also many pedestrians coming and going to buy.

Looking at Yunrui and Xuan'er, Zhan Zhao asked them, "Where do you want to go?"

Xuan'er is fine, Yunrui stayed on Mount Jiuhua all the year round and never came down, now he can't take his eyes off seeing the situation around him, when he heard Zhan Zhao asking him, the child just raised his head and looked around After glancing around, he finally pointed to a candied haws seller, and he said in a low voice, "That."

Zhan Zhao smiled, nodded, and then looked at Yutang again. They walked up to the candied haws seller, but Xuan'er was attracted by the small stall next to him.

Bai Yutang bought a candied haws for Yun Rui, then turned to Zhan Xuan and asked, "Xuan'er, do you want it?"

"No, the kid refused without saying a word," Xuan'er asked for this. He pointed to the stall in front of him.

Fifth Master turned his head to look, and it turned out to be a sugar painting seller. He stroked Zhan Xuan's head and said, "You can say what you want."

Zhan Xuan ordered a beautiful phoenix sugar painting, and Bai Yutang ordered a mouse sugar painting.After paying the money, Bai Yutang took the mouse candy painting and shook it in front of Zhan Zhao, "Cat, here you are."

Zhan Zhao glanced at it and smiled, then took it, "How do you draw a mouse?"

Fifth Master coughed a few times, went over and touched his waist with his hand, "Why, don't you like it?"

Xuan'er walked forward with Tang Hua in her arms, she didn't want to see the two fathers anymore, Yun Rui raised her head in confusion, then lowered her head to eat candied haws.

Zhan Zhao touched his nose, said a word, "No." Then he found Yun Rui and left.

After shopping around for half a circle and buying some gadgets for the children, Bai Yutang took them to Zuiyuxuan and chose a private seat by the window to rest.

The shopkeeper walked beside Bai Yutang and said, "What would Fifth Master want?"

"I've eaten." He said to the shopkeeper, "Just serve a pot of hot tea."

"Okay. Sit back, I'll be here right away." The shopkeeper led Bai Yutang and the others to the front of the seat, and immediately turned around to go.

Zhan Zhao still remembers the scene when they met for the first time, it was still in this position, the man was dressed in white, just like now.It's funny to think about it, I had too many scruples at that time, so I just ran away like that.Now that I think about it, I'm a little scared, if this person never shows up again, wouldn't I have missed him.

When the fifth master saw the man lowering his eyebrows and curling his mouth, he knew that the cat was thinking of something again. He tapped the table with his fingertips and asked, "Cat, what interesting things did you think of?"

"What else can I do? Didn't I remember that someone here scared Zhan and ran away." Zhan Zhao raised his face and squinted at him.

Bai Yutang pursed the corners of his lips, and also smiled, "It's strange to see you running away after I reported my name."

Zhan Zhao stretched out his head to look at him and asked, "If I had really declared my name at that time, would you have fought with me?"

"It's only natural!" Bai Yutang raised his head, "Your name Royal Cat really displeased the Lord for a long time."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows in self-concern, so it was the right choice for him to walk away.

The shopkeeper personally delivered the tea, said a few words and then withdrew.

The tea is high-quality dragon and phoenix tea, Bai Yutang can tell that this kind of tea is usually a tribute tea, and the shopkeeper keeps some here for some regular customers to taste.

Seeing that the children were still eating candy, Bai Yutang brought a cup to Zhan Zhao, "Cat, drink and watch."

Zhan Zhao smelled it, the tea had a slight fragrance, he took another look at the tea, it was light red, and took another sip, it was refreshing and delicious, it was really full of color and fragrance.

Sitting in the restaurant until late at night, they could see that the lanterns of the whole street were already lit from upstairs.Zhan Xuan yelled that it looked good, and all lay down on the railing.

Zhan Zhao carefully carried the child back, and went downstairs together.

After looking at the lanterns along the way, Zhan Zhao suggested to go back and let the brothers wait for the New Year's Eve dinner, so they bought a few lanterns and walked towards the ferry.
