Chapter 613: Let's Make Merry for Many More Days!

process to be so brutal, so deeply etched in his memory!Mrs. Cui nodded, too choked up to speak.Within half an hour, the "hot list" for the entire new capital had been refreshed.The Emperor mistakenly...In the backyard, in Jia Yin's house, Jiayi, Liu Yang, Jixi, and Jia'an sat together on the kang.

They had an assortment of snacks, fruits, and refreshments in the center.

In short, Jia Yin brought out all sorts of delicious food she could find for her brothers.

Jia Xi and Jia An were so excited by what their little sister had said, their eyebrows practically flew up.

Jia Xi was munching on mooncakes and waving excitedly, "Little sister, there really are fish as big as houses in the south! And turtles as big as wash basins! I even went for a ride around, if it wasn't for Uncle pulling me back, I would have been taken to the sea!"

"Me too, me too!" Jia'an followed closely behind, his excitement just as palpable. "Sister, you didn't see those foreigners! Red eyes, blue eyes, yellow hair, they look just like ghosts!"

They speak with their tongues rolling, and they bring out things so interesting, things we don't have here!

"I even got you a singing box, it's in my luggage. When we unload at the dock, I'll bring it back to you!"

Jia Yi and Liu Yang had sailed many times together, they had become much calmer and more collected. After eating and drinking their fill, Jia Yi took out an old booklet from his bosom.

The booklet was clearly often read, its edges were frayed.

Jia Yi handed the items to his younger sister and said with a smile, "Sister, I've found everything you wanted. But there are a few without marks, which means I haven't found them yet. I'll keep looking for them later!"

"Thank you, brother!" Jiayin hugged her brother's arm and smiled, her eyes like crescent moons.

You see, this booklet was drawn by her. It includes fruits like mangoes and lychees, some sea creatures like fish and shrimp, and various spices from the southeast. Altogether, it's quite extensive and complex.

It's a huge undertaking to find each one individually and bring it back.

While everyone at home always thought her impulsive brother, Jia Gege, would never be patient enough to gather everything for her, he surprisingly managed to find almost all of it.

This is what it is, this is the love a brother has for his sister!

"Brother, I've thought of a lot of delicious food to make for you tomorrow!" Jia Yin also quickly offered her treasures, causing Jia Yi to smile and nod.

Jiāxǐ and Jiā'ān were also afraid of being left behind, so they joined in the clamor.

"Sister, you can't be biased!"

“We helped too!”

"Okay, I have them all!" Jia Yin said with a hearty wave of her little chubby hand. "And Brother Liu Yang, I also prepared a gift for you."

Having said that, she called Shui Ling to the Ye family's courtyard next door to fetch a newly made horse sword and dagger.

As expected, Jia Yi and his brothers immediately burst with joy.

"This is just as good a sword as the one Big Courage Uncle has!"

"Definitely the same! Uncle Daring won't let us play with that one, but now we'll have one too."

"I want this dagger, wrapped in shark skin!"

Men are inherently combative by nature, regardless of age.

The brothers, eager to use their newly distributed weapons, couldn't wait to go out and conquer the world! They longed to march into battle and claim dominion over the seas.

Unfortunately, the Li family still had the "Dinghai Shenzhen" (a metaphorical term for a powerful figure), and before they could finish their boasting, Old Madam Li arrived in time. She slapped each of them individually and dragged them to the front to eat.

After dinner, once the back gate was closed, and the women were gone from the front yard, it became the domain of the men in Li's household.

In the hot spring pool at Ear House, waves crashed and surged.

After everyone cleansed themselves and changed into fresh clothes, uncles, nephews, or fathers would gather on a large kang. They chatted excitedly until late at night before finally falling asleep.

When the sun rises in the morning, the Mid-Autumn Festival arrives.

The academy had a two-day holiday, but they still had evening classes last night. So when Li Laosan and Zhao Yuru returned with the children, it was almost noon.

The carriage didn't wait until the village entrance. Jia Yi and Jia Xi, along with their family members, sat on a big tree, looking out far away. When they saw a shadow in the distance, they all shouted excitedly.

Then, Jiaren, Lig'er and Mao'er also jumped out of the carriage.

The brothers ran and huddled together, hugging each other, jumping up and down, all bursting with joy.

Jia Huan came out of the yard, wiping the water from his hands, smiling innocently.

He originally wanted to call his older and younger brothers inside quickly, but he ended up being dragged to the orchard to play together.

Jiayin, this little darling, of course wouldn't be left out.

Since all her brothers have gone home, she doesn't need to use her long legs anymore.

Either perched on his older brother's shoulders or nestled against his back, happiness bubbled over with joy!

Li Laotai, hearing the commotion outside, came out and saw only her son and daughter-in-law. She couldn't help but smile and say, "These kids are such a lively bunch. Where did they run off to cause trouble again"

Zhao Yuru stepped forward and took her mother-in-law's arm, replying, "Mother, it's hard to celebrate the festival. Let them play as they please. I heard that Jiayi and the others have returned. Even Ren, with his steady nature, didn't sleep well last night."

Li Laosan also smiled and said, "Yes, mother, if there's any work to be done, I'll do it. The children have grown up, and it's not easy to get them all together."

"Lao Li chuckled, "You two, I just said one sentence, and you've already prepared a hundred responses! I am their grandmother, would I stop them from getting close"

After saying that, she pulled her son and daughter-in-law, "Come on, hurry into the house. You said you were going to work, so you can't be lazy today! This year the festival is lively with many people, so let's make a few more good dishes."

Of course, Wu Sanniang and Da Zhu's daughter-in-law also came back to celebrate the festival together, but at this time, eager to get home, they just exchanged a few greetings before quickly dispersing.

In the orchard, tree after tree of fruit hung heavy, threatening to break their branches at any moment.

Compared to before, there have been half a month's more sunshine. The sourness of the fruit has reduced a lot, and it is already five points sweet.

Jiarren and the others casually picked some fruit, rubbed them on their clothes, and then crunched them down with a satisfying sound.

Jiārén, Lǐgē'er and Māogē'er talked about the gossip of the academy. Jiāxǐ and Jiā'ān talked about their experiences in Quanzhou. Jiāhūn talked about the business of the restaurant. Jiāyì talked about the hardships of sailing...

Brothers, gathered together, eating and laughing, there's so much to talk about.

Jiayin nestled among her brothers, like a little panda, rolling around happily and blissfully.

Such a happy time, it's really too short!

When the sun rose high in the sky, Lao Si Li reached the foot of the mountain and shouted loudly, “Jia Ren, take your younger siblings home for dinner!”

The boys immediately gathered their things, brushed the leaves off their clothes, and carried their sister home.

In Li's courtyard, the table had already been set.

The village head, Uncle Liu, and Auntie Wu, Mr. Zhao, Hui's husband and wife and children, Mr. Wen's husband and wife, Lord Hou, Dr. Zhang, Master Liu and his wife and child...

In total, there were over thirty people gathered together.

Logically speaking, on a day like this, one should be having a meal at home.

But Li Lao was delighted that all her grandchildren were together, so she wanted to make a big fuss and gather everyone.

Daya and Huiniang are considered half-son and daughter-in-law of the Li family. The village head, his wife, Zhao Shu, and Zhang Shini (the local doctor) are also regarded as elders of the Li family.

The Liu Family and Mr. Wen and his wife, they were truly like family!

The young master doesn't need to say anything, as soon as the children returned, they all gathered around him!

The house was expanded with an additional room, and three tables were set up for the men, women, and children....tures daily, and his appearance has improved visibly.Now, the news spread even more throughout Xindu. Everyone said that a Buddhist treasure had appeared in Baihuayuan!The Feng family's grain, medicin...
