Today is New Year's Eve, and Du Yaoyao was dissatisfied with Shen Jie, so she put it on hold for now.

On the night of New Year's Eve, the emperor had a big banquet for his ministers. In previous years, Shen Jie went to the banquet for the festival and stayed in the palace until midnight before returning. The main idea is to either order a table of dishes from an outside restaurant and deliver them to the house, or ask the cook to cook a table of New Year's Eve dishes according to the usual practice.

Du Yaoyao thought that she would live alone this year, but Shen Jie told her after lunch that he would come back for dinner in the evening.

It's okay to celebrate the New Year alone, but it's okay to spend it with two people, and feel more at home. And when it is two homeless people, report to the group to keep warm.

Du Yaoyao attached great importance to Nian.

When I was a child, I saw other people's parents who were working outside. Every time they went home to visit their children during the Chinese New Year, she always stood at the entrance of the village ignorantly, waiting for the rumored parents who abandoned her to come back to see her one day.

Year after year, if you can't wait, don't wait. Later in the New Year, I only hope that my grandma will be healthy and grow up quickly, so as to repay my grandma's kindness in raising me.

It is a pity that grandma passed away due to illness last year, and by the end of the year, she was left alone in the house.

After making a table full of chicken, duck and fish, she set the bowls and chopsticks for two, and when she heard the neighbors outside celebrating the reunion firecrackers, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Ma'am... what's the matter?"

Seeing the master sitting in front of the dowry in a daze, with red eyes, Yinye asked in a low voice.

"It's okay." Du Yaoyao sniffed, and ordered, "Bring me a fox fur that is resistant to dirt, and I'll go to the kitchen to have a look."

"Ma'am, there's a lot of fireworks over there, you..." Yinye

didn't say anything After that, Du Yaoyao took a look, and Yinye hurriedly changed her words, "Today's dinner can't be sloppy, thank you Madam."

Du Yaoyao instructed them to make a few beets, such as sweet-scented osmanthus, glutinous rice and lotus root. , candied sweet potato, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, etc.

Jiangnan cuisine is fresh and peaceful, which helps to nourish the stomach. Recently, she ate so much that the taste of birds in her mouth faded, and she found a cook who knows Sichuan cuisine to make a plate of spicy chicken.

It was getting dusk, just after changing clothes, I heard a rustling sound at the door, when I turned around, it was Shen Jie.

Standing by the door, he patted his clothes to disperse the cold air. His whole body was blush, his hair was like ink, his skin was like jade, his eyebrows were black and handsome, like a figure walking out of a painting.

Du Yaoyao thought, it's a good thing he wasn't born in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, otherwise he would be another "seeing to kill Wei Jie". "What's the matter?" Shen Jie opened the bead curtain, looked at the clothes on his body, "Didn't you bring this here?" He took her hand and said with a smile

, "Isn't it good-looking?"

After a few days, I ordered a set of red clothes, and made a set for Shen Jie by the way.

She was afraid that he would be awkward, so she didn't wear red, she didn't think it would look good in it.

Du Yaoyao nodded honestly.

"The same material." Shen Jie touched the fabric of her clothes, then sized her up from head to toe, and put it close to her ear, "It looks like a wedding dress, but it's just for one night."

Du Yaoyao didn't think so much about making clothes, Simply Chinese New Year should be booming. Tomorrow, on the first day of the first lunar month, colleagues and subordinates wished each other New Year's greetings, Shen Jie would definitely not be able to wear such a frivolous color.

"Did you sue the emperor for leave?" The kitchen hadn't passed the meal yet, so it was early.

"Hmm." Shen Jie's hand was a little cold, he let go of her, and changed to embrace his slender waist, "I said that there is a frail lady in my family who needs to be taken care of. The Holy Majesty promised to reward me with a lot of precious medicinal materials."

"I'm not weak ." "Du Yaoyao retorted, it was because of her weak body, she claimed credit, "I spent half an afternoon watching the dishes tonight in the kitchen."

"There is a manager in the kitchen, and a cook, so I don't need to trouble you." Shen Jie asked, " Does it smell bad?" The

original owner is delicate and extravagant, and usually burns earth dragons or uses high-quality smokeless silver silk charcoal in the room. Du Yaoyao went to the kitchen, which really attracted attention.

The servants were afraid of fuming her, so they only asked her to speak by the door. Shen Jie and Yin Ye were exaggerating.

Du Yaoyao wanted to say "it's okay", but when she saw Shen Jie's concerned eyes, her words turned around, "A little bit."

Children who can act like a baby have sweets to eat. Shen Jie naturally had a thoughtful and comforting meal.

For dinner, there are cold and hot meals, as well as pastries, fruits and rice noodles. There are 28 dishes in total, which are small and exquisite, and the matching is fresh. It's delicious.

The glutinous rice and lotus root slices are sandwiched in Shenjie, sweet and soft in the mouth, with a sweet aftertaste.

"Is it delicious?" Du Yaoyao frowned.

"Delicious." Shen Jie glanced at a few uncommon beets on the table, lifted the wine cup and clinked glasses with Du Yaoyao, "Thank you for your hard work." The

wine is made from flowers and fruits, with a low alcohol content, not intoxicating. Shen Jie deliberately made people warm it up, and drank it to warm his stomach.

Du Yaoyao drank while eating vegetables, and secretly picked up spicy chicken diced to eat while Shen Jie was not paying attention.

After eating five or six yuan, she told the cook to make it slightly spicy, and her small mouth was still red hot.

"Okay!" Before she was about to pinch again, Shen Jie stopped her with chopsticks, "You promise me not to eat spicy food, but no one will take it for you if you have a stomachache."

Du Yaoyao looked at the diced chicken, red pepper, Inside, the chicken nuggets that were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside seemed to beckoning to her, "Come and eat me, come and eat me."

The wine was not intoxicating, she seemed to be drunk, Shen Jie looked at the two thin-necked hollow statues beside her. bottle.

Du Yaoyao was very happy today, Shen Jie was affected by her emotions, and couldn't bear to refuse her request.

He picked up a piece of diced chicken, suppressed the spicy taste in his mouth, leaned over to hold her back of the neck, and gave it to her with the tip of his tongue.

Du Yaoyao stared at him blankly, her eyelashes fluttering, and Shen Jie coaxed her, "Eat quickly."

After chewing slowly, Du Yaoyao turned her head, and her face, which was originally flushed with pink, turned even redder.

The weather was extremely cold and the vegetation was intermittent, but Shen Jie felt that peach blossoms were in full bloom in front of him, charming and beautiful, with a moving posture.

He made a gesture and picked up the chicken, "Do you still want to eat, Yaoyao?"

"No." Du Yaoyao covered her face and complained, "You're going to bully me!" She was a little dizzy, but her mind was still clear.

Shen Jie tapped on the desk with an innocent tone, "I didn't bully you, it's not until night?"

"You are not allowed to bully me at night." Du Yaoyao muttered.

"Then you bully me?"

"I don't care about it!"

"I care about it." Shen Jie put a small bowl of rice in front of her, "Drinking is not enough, eat some rice."

Du Yaoyao snorted, "Don't eat!"

"How can you have strength if you don't eat?" Shen Jie teased, "It's been a long night!"

Du Yaoyao glanced at his lower body when he heard this, Shen Jie grabbed it, "Look again, I think It's okay to remove the dishes and do things on the food table."

"What the hell!" Du Yaoyao muttered softly, picking up the rice.

"What did you say?" His ears were sharp.

"I said I'll eat well," Du Yaoyao chewed the rice bitterly, "It's a long night tonight!"

Shen Jie laughed and scratched a grain of rice on her cheek, took the bowl and chopsticks, "Hey you."

Du Yaoyao said rather Reluctantly, he was fed half a bowl of rice, and when he walked to the warm pavilion, he hiccupped a little.

She complained, "It's all your fault for making me eat so much."

Shen Jie kept his face straight, "I have to keep watch at night, for fear that you will be so weak that you won't be able to stand up."
