Farming Beneath the Changbai Mountains

In the evening, Zixuan came back from the Yamen, and everyone held a banquet in the house to welcome Qinghe and celebrate the family reunion. Qingyuan and Qingyao have been away from home for five years. They have been in the capital these years and rarely have the chance to come back.

Jinghan looked at the children who all grew up in front of her and felt endless emotions in her heart. It's as if Qingyuan's newborn appearance is right in front of his eyes, but the original Rouduanzi has grown into a big boy. Qingyuan is a little taller than Zixuan. Even Qingyuan is now about the same height as Jinghan.

"Tonight is the day for our family reunion. We don't need to pay attention to those false etiquette. We can be as lively as we like, and we don't have to worry about what others think." Jinghan raised her wine glass, "Here, let's have a glass of wine first." With that, Jinghan drank the wine first.

Zixuan looked at his son and was very happy in his heart, "Qingyuan, Qingyao, you haven't been able to be with us all these years. It's us parents who owe you a debt. Come back this time and stay at home for a while longer." ”

"What did Dad say? We have failed to be filial to our parents in these years in the capital. It is our fault as sons. We should ask father and mother to forgive our son's unfilial piety." When Qingyuan heard his father say this , stood up quickly. Qingyao naturally stood up with his elder brother.

"Hurry up and sit down. Our family is reunited after a long separation. We don't care about anything. Tonight, we are just drinking happily. It doesn't matter if we are drunk. You are all grown up and dad doesn't care about this." Zixuan waved his hand and asked his two sons to sit down. Down. Then he looked at Li Haochen again, "Haochen, Master won't call you Prince here. In Master's eyes, you are still the little boy who traveled around the world with us."

Li Haochen also stood up, "Once a master, always a father. In Haochen's heart, master is like a father, and he is the person he respects the most."

"Okay, everyone, sit down, everyone, sit down. Let's not say anything else and let's drink." Zixuan became interested and had to drag his son and apprentice to drink together.

Qingning and Qingyi were also sitting at the table over there, but their glasses were filled with juice instead of wine. There are still a lot of fruits in the south in August. Jinghan asked someone to squeeze the juice and give it to the children. The two little guys were drinking juice from the glasses, but their eyes were staring at the wine in other people's glasses.

Qingyi took advantage of her mother not paying attention, secretly picked up her mother's wine glass and took a sip. As a result, the spicy taste made him cough.

In fact, Jinghan had already seen her son's actions, and she didn't say anything, just to see what her son could do. As a result, the younger son drank secretly and choked on the wine. Jinghan couldn't help laughing. She patted her son on the back and said with a smile, "Let's see if you will dare again in the future? Do you think your mother has good things that she won't give you, right? You've suffered a lot this time." , let’s see if you still dare to covet other people’s things.”

Everyone understood it at this time, so they all pointed at Qingyi and laughed.

Zixuan couldn't help but laugh. This little son was so weird and full of clever ideas that even Jinghan couldn't fool him. Unexpectedly, the younger son suffered a loss today, "Qingyi, you won't be allowed to do this in the future. Naturally, the things your mother doesn't give you are things you can't use now. You just drank some wine secretly today. If you steal some wine one day, If you get into trouble, you might be the first one to suffer. Did you hear that?" Zixuan said with a cold face.

Qingyi finally coughed less, and nodded quickly when she heard her father's words. "My son remembers it, daddy. My son won't dare to do it anymore." He really has a long memory. This guy is so annoying to him.

This small episode did not affect the atmosphere at the banquet. Everyone was still chatting and laughing. Haochen kept asking about Qinghe's experiences in the past few years, while Zixuan and Jinghan occasionally asked questions when they heard something interesting. Qinghe picked up some interesting things that he had encountered over the years and told them to everyone. Those stories full of exotic customs made people feel fascinated after listening to them.

"It would be great if I could go out once too. Sister Qinghe, you have had such a wonderful life in the past few years, right? It's really enviable. Alas, if I hadn't come to Beijing with the prince, no, it was brother Haochen who came to Beijing , maybe I can accompany you overseas." Qingyuan couldn't help but feel envious as he listened to Qinghe's narrative.

"Brother, are you living a wonderful life in the capital? Oh my god, all the famous ladies in the capital are eager to catch a glimpse of my eldest brother. Alas, eldest brother, if you marry a wife anytime, everyone in the capital will have to It's raining." Qingyao couldn't help but joke.

Qingyuan and Qingyao were reading companions to the prince in the capital. The emperor loved and cared for these two children like nephews, and their treatment was the same as that of Li Haochen. These two brothers also stole the show in the capital. Especially Qingyuan, his appearance combines the advantages of his parents, and now he is a handsome, gentle and handsome young man. At the age of sixteen, he was in his prime, and he attracted the admiration of many girls in the capital.

"Okay, don't mention this. My head hurts when I mention it. Isn't it a good thing that His Highness the Crown Prince did? Every time the Queen holds a banquet, he doesn't want to show up, and then he makes me dress up, among the group of women I walked over in front of him. As a result, the prince escaped, but I was harmed by him." When Qingyuan heard this, he couldn't help but complain. At this time, Li Haochen was no longer an elder brother, but a prince.

Seeing her son's troubled look, Jinghan couldn't help but laugh. As her children grow older, they have their own troubles. She looked at her eldest son and then at Qinghe, and an idea flashed through her mind. "Come on, don't worry about talking, let's eat vegetables. Over there in the capital, you probably can't get very fresh seafood. We have a lot of seafood here, so try them all. Qingyuan, help Qinghe pick up the vegetables. , you have her favorite crab over there, help pick one up quickly."

When Qingyuan heard this, he quickly picked up a crab and said, "Sister Qinghe, try it quickly. This crab tastes good."

Qinghe thanked her profusely, "You don't know, what I miss the most when I go out is the food from our hometown. Alas, although we go out with a cook, some of the cooking utensils overseas are different from ours. Even if it's the same thing, it doesn't taste the same. It's really made me hungry these past few years." After Qinghe finished speaking, he lowered his head and started eating.

After hearing this, Haochen quickly picked up some vegetables and put them into Qinghe's bowl. "Then you should eat well. When you get home, your aunt will cook whatever you want."

Everyone ate and laughed for most of the day, and then it was finally over. Jinghan drank a little too much and felt confused, so she hurried back to her room to rest. When Zixuan saw Jinghan's appearance, he quickly stepped forward and helped Jinghan back.

"Zixuan, tell me, would it be good for Qinghe to be our daughter-in-law? I have thought that Qinghe has been with me since she was a child, and I like her too. If I can get her to marry Qingyuan, someone will help me take care of Qingyuan. But no. Do you know, does Qinghe like anyone?" Jinghan couldn't help but said, leaning on her husband's arms.

"You, this is really a mess. Didn't you realize that Haochen's eyes have been fixed on Qinghe? Silly lady, aren't you usually very smart? Why didn't you notice this?"
