Chapter 453 New Year’s Eve①
In fact, Prince Li had never met his mother. His impression of his mother came from what he heard from the servants in the palace.
Although his mother was born in a humble family, she was kind and gentle...
Come to think of it, her personality should be very similar to Tang Mengyin.
So, he couldn't help but want to help her.
……
Lunar New Year's eve.
The auspicious snow fell down in large flakes, as if countless white butterflies were dancing in the air.
Jiang Yimo got up early and was in a particularly good mood.
She couldn't wait to get busy with the servants in the mansion, and everyone worked together.
The bright and eye-catching Spring Festival couplets and the exquisite New Year pictures create a strong festive atmosphere.
The entire mansion is filled with a festive atmosphere, making people feel the strong flavor of the New Year.
On this year's New Year's Eve, Feng Wuhen made a special suggestion - to invite Gu Yuanshan and his family to have a reunion dinner together.
This proposal made Jiang Yimo happy. After all, General Gu had just passed away not long ago, and the Gu family must be immersed in grief at the moment and have no intention of preparing for the New Year.
Being able to invite them over to have a New Year's Eve dinner together will undoubtedly add warmth and comfort to this special moment.
So Jiang Yimo threw herself into the preparations without hesitation.
She personally directed the servants to meticulously decorate the rooms and place the tableware, and she also carefully selected the ingredients and cooked delicious dishes with great care.
Every dish is filled with her blessings and expectations for the new year.
Although she is busy, her face is always filled with a happy smile.
For Jiang Yimo, this is her first New Year since she traveled here.
However, there was a faint regret lingering in her heart - she missed her grandfather who had gone to heaven.
Whenever she thought of that kind and amiable old man, her eyes could not help but become moist.
But she knew that her grandfather in heaven would definitely not like to see her unhappy, so no matter what, she had to face life bravely and cherish the good times before her.
The heavy snow stopped on the evening of New Year's Eve.
On this festive and peaceful night, Gu Yuanshan and his wife happily brought their two lively and lovely sons to share this meaningful New Year's Eve dinner.
At the same time, they also brought Xiaoxi, who was brought back by Jiang Yimo.
The New Year’s Eve dinner prepared by Jiang Yimo this year is extremely sumptuous and colorful!
The table was filled with all kinds of mouth-watering delicacies: fragrant chicken, tender and plump duck, smooth and refreshing fish, juicy pork, chewy beef, and mutton that had been carefully processed by Jiang Yimo and had no mutton smell.
In addition, there is a dazzling array of seafood feasts - lively shrimps, big and plump oysters, and crabs with bared claws...all turned into delicious dishes by Jiang Yimo.
These seafoods were specially transported by Feng Wuhen from Crescent Island where he had stayed before.
"Momo, the food you cook is amazing. Just by smelling the aroma, I feel like I can finish three bowls of rice in one go!"
After everyone took their seats, they saw Gu Yuanshan sniffing hard, as if he wanted to inhale all the aroma of the food in the air into his stomach, while uttering slightly exaggerated words of praise.
Mrs. Gu, who was sitting nearby, saw this and gave her husband a reproachful look.
At the same time, he stretched out his hand and gently pinched the soft flesh on his waist, saying with a smile, "Look at how useless you are talking. It's as if you haven't eaten for months."
Jiang Yimo just smiled and said softly: "Uncle, if you think it tastes good, then eat more."
Her voice was clear and melodious, as sweet as the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley.
The smile on her face is as bright and dazzling as a flower blooming in spring.
"Don't worry, uncle will definitely not be polite to you and the prince, as long as you don't mind that uncle eats too much."
After saying that, Gu Yuanshan laughed. His laughter was hearty and heroic, as if it could penetrate the entire room.
His eyes were full of sincerity and kindness, which made people feel extremely warm.
"How could that be? Everyone should eat." Jiang Yimo responded quickly, a warm smile on her face.
She glanced at everyone, her eyes full of joy and anticipation.
"Yes! Let's start eating quickly. The weather is cold and the food gets cold quickly." At this time, Feng Wuhen also agreed with a smile.
His voice is deep and magnetic, with a unique charm.
At this moment, he seemed to be in a particularly happy mood, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
After hearing Feng Wuhen's words, everyone nodded in agreement, then picked up their chopsticks and prepared to enjoy this sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.
However, just as they were about to start tasting the food, a sudden sound broke the silence.
All I heard was a loud voice coming from the main hall door.
"Seventh brother, this New Year's Eve is so lively, why is it that..."
The voice was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Feng Wuhen's ears.
His originally relaxed and happy mood instantly turned into depressed.
Feng Wuhen muttered softly: "Why did this guy suddenly come over here!"
Although the voice was very small, it was still heard by Jiang Yimo who was standing next to her.
Seeing this, she couldn't help but reach out her hand and gently patted the back of Feng Wuhen's hand helplessly.
"Oh, it's New Year's Day, it's a good thing to have guests visiting!"
"Besides, Prince Li is your good brother after all. It's not good for you to be so sullen."
Jiang Yimo said earnestly, with a hint of blame in her eyes.
Then, she continued to persuade him: "Besides, it's so lonely for people to spend the New Year alone!"
"Since he's already here, let him stay and have dinner with us."
After saying that, Jiang Yimo winked at Feng Wuhen mischievously, as if hinting that he should be more enthusiastic.
However, in response to Jiang Yimo's words, Feng Wuhen just curled his lips in disdain and did not respond.
Obviously, he was still somewhat unhappy about the arrival of this uninvited guest.
Jiang Yimo had just finished a whispered conversation with Feng Wuhen when, at this moment, Prince Li stepped into the main hall.
When Jiang Yimo caught a glimpse of him, she immediately stood up from her seat without hesitation and greeted him with a smile.
Seeing this, Gu Yuanshan and others on the side followed suit and stood up quickly.
After all, Prince Li is a prince with an extremely noble status.
Moreover, in terms of age, King Li is older than the terrifying Evil King.
Therefore, when facing such an important person, necessary etiquette must not be missed.
