He Zexu's mood couldn't be better. Not long ago, there was a group of people who came for his son, Xiao An. Just a few days ago, there are now people who come for his wife. His daughter still doesn't dare to wear women's clothes.
Although his wife and children were fine, he was extremely annoyed.
Why do his wife and children have to live like this?
"Ruyi." Seeing He Zexu wiping the sword in his hand with a sullen face, Wei Zijun called his daughter and winked over there.
Ruyi immediately understood what her mother meant, and ran over to her father: "Dad, would you like to teach your daughter how to practice swordsmanship?"
After hearing his daughter's voice, the expression on He Zexu's face immediately changed from severe winter to warm spring: "Master Leng taught me, but you didn't study seriously."
"Do I like daddy's teachings? I think daddy is better than master." Ruyi squatted beside him, raised her head and said with a smile.
His daughter's smile made He Zexu temporarily put aside his annoyance. He stretched out his hand and gently scratched the bridge of his daughter's nose: "You are not afraid that your master will hear it and he will be unhappy."
"It's okay if you're not happy, my daughter can coax her." Ruyi said with a smile.
He Zexu shook his head and smiled, and put away his sword: "
His daughter had complained to him a few days ago, saying she didn't like sword practice anymore, but now she came to let him teach her. It was obvious that her daughter saw that he was in a bad mood, so she came to make him happy.
Although, he also hopes that his daughter will practice martial arts well so that she can defend herself in critical moments.
However, his daughter doesn't like swords, so now he doesn't want to take this opportunity to teach his daughter how to practice swords.
"Let's go, dad will take you to buy roasted chestnuts." My daughter likes to eat this very much, and because she knows that things are not peaceful recently, Ruyi has never gone out.
"Sanniang, are we going together?" He Zexu asked when he saw that his wife had no intention of following.
Wei Zijun shook his head with a smile and raised the work in his hands: "You go ahead."
In my hands are new clothes sewn for the children.
In fact, with her status and conditions, she can go to a clothing store to buy it, or she can ask a tailor to customize it.
The clothes of the three children are usually custom-made by tailors, but the new clothes for the New Year are all sewn by Wei Zijun himself.
This has been the case for more than ten years.
Now, Xiao Le is handling all the government affairs in the six cities, so she has a lot of time. Therefore, not only did she make new clothes for the three children, but she also made one for their father.
Moreover, Ruyi has two sets, one for men and one for women.
It was done without telling Ruyi. When she was not around, Wei Zijun secretly took it out and sewed it, just to give his daughter a surprise.
He Zexu is worried about the recent events that have happened one after another, and Wei Zijun is not really more able to bear it than he is.
However, he is a husband, a father, and a very strong man.
However, if someone wants to kill his son or steal his wife, if he knows the existence of his daughter, his daughter will be in danger and in big trouble.
How could he bear this!
Wei Zijun even thought that if he was still the same as before, not knowing that she was still alive or that the children existed, then he would not bear such a heavy heart.
Calculate the time and go to Anyu Country to investigate about the assassination of Xiao An last time. There should be news soon.
Wei Zijun prayed in his heart, it doesn't matter who the person behind the scenes is, as long as it's not the person on the dragon throne.
In a blink of an eye, the New Year is here, and all six cities have sent New Year gifts.
Not gold and silver jewelry, but specialties from each city, brocade, food ingredients, etc.
Wei Zijun knows how to handle these things. Gold, silver and jewelry must be returned the same way.
Every year, Wei Zijun only keeps one portion of the annual gift, and Leng Wuyi and the others share the rest.
On the evening of New Year's Eve, Wei Zijun was busy in the kitchen preparing the New Year's Eve dinner.
He Zexu took his people and patrolled the outside of the city again. Leng Youyi and the others also carefully checked the inside of the city twice.
As Du Xiaogong walked, he muttered to himself that if anyone who was celebrating the New Year felt uncomfortable, he would soak him or her in a manure pit until he could breathe.
The day before, Wei Zijun personally told Leng Wuyi and the others that he would bring Adanhe's children over for the New Year's Eve dinner and spend the New Year's Eve together.
However, Leng Wuyi refused and said with a smile that of course he would spend the New Year at his own home.
Wei Zijun understood that Leng Wuyi didn't want to disturb her family of five's reunion, so she refused.
Otherwise, he would not have spent all the New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve with her and the children in the past ten years.
Even though he later got married to A Dan and had children, he still brought his whole family over.
But this year, you have become more particular about it, saying that you want to celebrate the New Year at your own home?
"Mom, can we set off the firecrackers? Others have already started." Xiao An entered the kitchen and asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, Mom, there is one last dish here. You can put it away after it's fried." Wei Zijun said with a smile.
He is already a general, but he is still a child after all.
When the last dish was finished, Wei Zijun asked Aunt Fu, who was helping in the kitchen, and others to hurry up and have the New Year's Eve dinner.
The food was already cooked and waiting for them in the big kitchen. Wei Zijun was not harsh on the people below at all. Taking this New Year's Eve dinner as an example, the dishes were no worse than those served by her, the city lord.
Xiao An, who was waiting at the door repeatedly, peeked his head in. When he saw that the last dish was coming out, he immediately called on his younger brothers and sisters to set off firecrackers.
He Zexu went into the kitchen to help serve the dishes, and Wei Zijun followed him toward the hall, with the sound of crackling firecrackers coming from behind.
"Be careful, don't hurt yourselves. Let it go sparingly first, and then let it go slowly after the New Year's Eve dinner." He Zexu told the children as he walked.
"It's not all your fault. Just buy some firecrackers for them to play with. It would be better for you to just invite the firecracker makers. After so many have been made, I don't think they can finish them tonight." Wei Zijun
I couldn't help but complain.
Those fireworks and firecrackers have exceeded the total amount she has bought for her children in the past ten years.
He Zexu, who entered the house, put the dishes on his hands and said with a smile: "Then just let them wait until dawn. Let them have enough at one time. Children only like to set off fireworks and firecrackers.
When they get older in a few years, if you let them play this, they probably won’t be interested anymore.”
Wei Zijun glanced at him speechlessly: "If we let them wait until dawn, how can the people nearby sleep?"
"Tonight we have to stay up late on New Year's Eve, who will sleep?" He Zexu said disapprovingly.
He admitted that he doted on his three children, but who knew that he had not been by their side in the past thirteen years?
Now that we are reunited, we naturally have to compensate the children twice as much.
Having said that, He Zexu walked outside the door and called the three children to come back for dinner.
The three children entered the house excitedly, and this one shouted: "Wow, shredded sweet potatoes, my favorite."
The one is called: "I love fish balls."
A family of five is sitting around the table, the older one is picking up food for the younger one, and the younger one is chirping, it's a warm and lively atmosphere.
But at Yangli State's New Year's Eve banquet, the atmosphere was very depressing...
