"Roast goose..." Yun Yun woke up suddenly after saying this, there was something in his mouth, he realized that he was biting the quilt, and Cheng Mu was sitting beside him and looking at him.

"Didn't you prepare roast goose for Chinese New Year this year?"

Yun Yun stood up, pinching Cheng Mu's face, "I'm not dreaming, Cheng Mu, you're back."

Cheng Mu replied, "Ayun, I'm late."

Yun Yun hugged him, "It's not too late, just come back." She was still angry when she was sleeping, but when she woke up and saw Cheng Mu in front of her eyes, that anger suddenly disappeared , as if it had never been here.

"Why did you come back now? I ate all your dumplings yesterday."

"A Yun eats all my blessings into her stomach, and she will be lucky this year."

Cheng Mu came back all the way. Just after leaving Jingzhou, an official road was blocked by a big rock rolling down the mountain, so he had to take a long detour to go back. According to the original plan, he could arrive on New Year's Eve, and the detour was delayed. After a day, it is inevitable that you will not be able to make it back.

It started to snow when we arrived in Qingzhou, and Cheng Mu didn't rest on the way. Now the snow on his body was baked by the heat of the house, and he felt like he was drenched in rain.

"Hurry up and take a shower, you are wet and smelly."

Cheng Mu smelled it, and there was indeed a smell, "I'll take a bath first, and let Aunt Meng buy roast goose by the way."

"Hurry up." Yun Yun wrapped herself in the quilt, and after Cheng Mu left, he covered his face and smiled in the quilt, as if there was no difference between yesterday and today.

"My lord, when I went to buy the roast goose, it just came out of the pan, and it was fresh."

"Sister-in-law Meng, you can eat here too. There are no outsiders today, so let's stop being so polite."

Mrs. Meng pulled Xiao Bao back who was about to serve, and glared at him, "My lord, it's not going to happen. Let Xiao Bao and I go back to the room to eat. Mr. Cheng is back, so you can catch up on the old days."

Yun Yun had no choice but to say, "Okay, Xiaobao, come quickly."

Xiao Bao walked over obediently, and Yun Yun cut a large piece of meat from the roast goose and put it on the plate, "You and your mother have worked hard this year, this roast goose was rewarded to you by the county magistrate, you must finish it, and don't waste it !"

Xiao Bao nodded solemnly while holding the plate.

Yun Yun patted his little head, "Go."

Normally, Yun Yun seldom drank alcohol due to business affairs, but today she brought out a jar of good wine from the cellar of the county government, and she could smell the mellow aroma inside just from Kaifeng.

"Let's take a rest today, let's have a good drink." Yun Yun poured a bowl for each of them, smelling the aroma of the wine, took a big sip, it was not so spicy, but a bit sweet.

"This wine is good. There are more good things hidden in the county mansion than I imagined. Do you know that there are more than ten jars of plum wine buried under the plum tree in the yard. I don't know which year it was buried. What a coincidence The only thing is that I found out, and when you leave, bring some for His Highness and they will taste it too."

It's easy to tell the truth after drinking, Yun Yun takes a sip, and Cheng Mu grabs a bite of food for him, saving him from getting drunk.When the jar of wine was gone, Yun Yun's cheeks were as red as a pig's liver.

"Cheng Mu, why don't you drink?" Yun Yun could smell the faint smell of alcohol as she spoke.

"I drank it, you eat some food, don't drink it."

"Cheng Mu, can you sing those ditty tunes? My mother used to sing to me. She said fat baby, carrying a big baby on her back, took a small step forward, and fell a big fall."

Yun Yun was completely drunk, Cheng Mu put down the bowl and chopsticks, hugged him to the bed and covered him with a quilt, "A Yun, happy new year."

Many people came to the county to give gifts on the first day of the new year. The local officials and landlords all wanted to curry favor with the county magistrate, but they waited outside for a whole day without even seeing anyone. **Just happened to be on duty. Seeing so many officials blown by the cold wind at the door, she said embarrassedly, "My lord is really sleeping, so it's inconvenient to see guests. Why don't you come back tomorrow."

"When you came in the morning, you said you were sleeping and asked us to come in the afternoon, and when you came in the afternoon, you said you were sleeping. Is it possible that your county magistrate slept all day on New Year's Day?" The family of a big landlord was not happy. It was still snowing, and these people had to endure the cold wind when they came to give gifts to the county magistrate.

"That's what it says in here." ** didn't dare to offend these people, but he had gone in many times, and every time Xiaobao said this.

Cheng Mu heard the commotion outside the county mansion, and a group of people questioned, "Is your county magistrate coming out? I heard that the county magistrate is a clean official, and let us keep blowing cold wind here."

"If you like to blow cold wind here, you can blow it. The county magistrate is resting. Next year's tax revenue will not be reduced by half because of these gifts."

"Who are you to dare to speak like that?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, it's true that these gifts are useless. Why do you think the county magistrate wants to rest? He just doesn't want to be disturbed by you people. He just wants to bribe you with a little gift. I'm afraid it's because of the county magistrate's previous actions that you didn't see too much. Be clear."

They have always been like this with the previous county magistrates. Last year, those thieves were not accepted on the surface, but in fact they turned a blind eye. This year, it is just in accordance with the usual practice. The new county magistrate seems to be really different from the past.

After Cheng Mu's words, many people retreated, and the sky was getting dark, and many people left with their things.

The consequence of being drunk is that the head hurts very much. Yun Yun felt that his head was going to explode. He still remembered when he ate the roast goose at noon. It's really embarrassing to throw it home.

In the evening, the master and the county magistrate came to celebrate the festival. They followed Yun Yun and knew Yun Yun's behavior, so they didn't dare to send anything too expensive. Chen Yanzhi gave a Langhao pen, and the master made it at home. I brought a few catties of bacon.

This kind of gift is much better than those real gold and silver. After Yun Yun happily accepted it, the master secretary left. Chen Yanzhi seemed to have something to say, so he stayed for a while.

"How about your marriage?"

"The betrothal gift has been made, and we are scheduled to get married on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. Today is the time to talk about it. Thank you, my lord."

"Just make a decision. When you have a family in the future, you will live a good life. If there are any difficult things, the two of you can discuss them. Don't always bear them alone."

"Yes."

Cheng Mu was reading military books in the flower hall, and when Yun Yun came over, he put down the book and said, "It's all done?"

Yun Yun stretched her waist, "It's just been done, this big Chinese New Year's one doesn't let people rest, I have to do this and touch that all the time."

"Then what do you say the prefect will do?"

"If you are the prefect, don't live every day, just socialize every day. When are you leaving?"

"On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Jingzhou is currently training officers and soldiers, and I have to get back in time."

"Hey, you said why my life is so hard. I am not widowed, but I live the life of a widow."

Cheng Mu stroked the back of his hand, "Then am I also living a widower's life?"

"That's not necessarily true. There are crowds of beautiful men and women over there, so you may not be able to do anything wrong to me. Tell me, do you want me to find someone to watch over you?"

Cheng Mu smiled and said, "It's unnecessary, I have my own measure."
