Chapter 120 Testing Thoughts
Looking at the large table of dishes in front of them, Yun Xiao and Manager Liu were really stunned. This was even more sumptuous than the New Year’s Eve dinner they had eaten before.
Han Yiyi had indeed prepared quite a lot today, including dry pot duck, boiled rabbit, and chopped pepper fish head. Besides these, she also thoughtfully prepared less spicy dishes, such as braised pork, white-cut chicken, and braised lion's head. She also made some pan-fried buns...
Of course, we do this not only because it is the New Year’s Eve dinner, but also because the weather is cold and the food will not go bad if we can’t finish it. We can just heat it up when we want to eat it next time. Besides, the taste of the hodgepodge is really good, so it is not only convenient but also delicious.
After dinner, several people stayed up together to celebrate the New Year. I don’t know where Manager Liu took out some fireworks from. When the two little guys saw them, their eyes lit up. They hurriedly pulled Manager Liu to the yard to set them off.
Looking at the smiling faces of the two children, Han Yiyi also curled up the corners of his mouth slightly, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart. It has been more than half a year since he came to this place. Fortunately, he has the company of these two little guys. Otherwise, he doesn't know how he would get through these boring days alone...
Fireworks exploded in the sky, causing the two children to exclaim in surprise. Yun Xiao looked at the profile of the woman beside him. Under the illumination of the fireworks, she looked even more beautiful...
Looking at this side profile, Yun Xiao's heart began to beat uncontrollably, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Sister Yi Yi, do you have any plans for the future..."
Yun Xiao meant to ask the woman in front of him if she planned to find someone else to rely on. When Han Yiyi heard this, it became clear that today was the New Year, and after the New Year, the matter of your chili peppers needed to be put on the agenda.
After all, in Han Yiyi's opinion, the reason why Yun Xiao appeared at the Han family before and personally escorted her back to Zhushan Village later, although the escort was meaningless and caused her to suffer, was because he was worried that something unexpected would happen in the chili business. So when she heard Yun Xiao say this, she hurriedly spoke.
"Don't worry, Mr. Yun. In a few days, I will go to the village chief to discuss letting the villagers grow peppers. This will definitely not delay our cooperation with Yunlai Restaurant..."
Yun Xiao: ...
"Sister Yi Yi, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant. Regarding the chili business, I naturally trust Sister Yi Yi. What I mean is, have you ever thought about finding a support for yourself, starting a new family, and finding a new father for your two children..."
Yun Xiao had made up his mind that if in the future..., he would definitely treat these two children as his own. Even if he and Yi Yi had children in the future, he would treat them equally.
When Han Yiyi heard Yun Xiao's words, Nangong Yuan's face suddenly flashed through his mind. He subconsciously frowned, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"I haven't thought about it. I feel that my life now is very good with two children to accompany me. I don't want to find a 'master' for myself. Not only do I have to serve him, but if he changes his mind one day, he might bring another one home from outside, which would be enough to make me upset..."
Hearing Han Yiyi's words, Yun Xiao's eyes darkened. He knew that it must be that scumbag who hurt her heart before, and he couldn't help but speak again.
"Actually, not all men are the same. There are still many good men in the world. Maybe you can..."
"Mom, mom, please come here and play with us, this is so fun..."
Before Yun Xiao could finish his words, Han Yiyi was dragged away by the two little guys. Looking at Han Yiyi being dragged away by the two, Yun Xiao's eyes turned slightly cold as he thought of something...
A few days later, Fan Ting, who had just managed to get out of bed after being thrown down, was beaten up severely by a man in black who came out of nowhere, so he lay back on the bed.
On the other side, Nangong Yuan, who was in Yanlang City, listened to the whistling north wind outside the tent, and the woman in Zhushan Village appeared in his mind again. His originally deep eyes couldn't help but darken.
Although Dongli has withdrawn his troops and has not attacked again for a long time, he knows that they must have other plans, so he cannot leave at all.
In addition, the military rations that should have arrived ten days ago have not arrived yet, which made him have a bad premonition. However, fortunately, when he wrote to Ye Yi and Ye Er before, he asked them to collect military rations in advance, so they should be able to hold out for another half a month.
The reason why he asked the Nangong family to prepare food in his letters to Ye Yi and Ye Er was because he was worried that they would seize the military rations. It seems that his worries were not unnecessary.
When the battle report came from the front line, saying that Nangong Yuan was not only alive but had won another victory, the depressed atmosphere in the Nangong family was swept away, and everyone from the master to the servants seemed to be full of energy and spirit.
They also saw Nangong Yuan asking them to prepare military rations. Although they were confused and wondered whether the military rations should be reported to Emperor Beichen, in order not to delay the war on the front line, the Nangong family still spent most of their property to prepare food.
Fortunately, he rushed back to Yanlang City at full speed, so Yanlang City was not conquered by Dongli. When the Dongli commander saw that Nangong Yuan was not dead, he was so scared that he retreated his troops.
However, for some reason, they came back just two days after they retreated, and even sent more troops. Fortunately, Nangong Yuan had rich combat experience, otherwise he would have suffered a loss.
Because Dongli's assassins had gone back to report that Nangong Yuan was dead, and coupled with the news from Ye Li in Kyoto, Dongli thought that Nangong Yuan was indeed dead, so he ordered the attack on the city again.
But who would have thought that during the battle, Nangong Yuan suddenly appeared on the city wall wearing black armor.
Now the soldiers of Dongli had an instinctive fear of Nangong Yuan. When they saw him suddenly appear, they lost their composure. Their commander was also frightened when he saw Nangong Yuan suddenly appear. Seeing that all the soldiers had lost their will to fight, he could only order a retreat.
As for why they launched another attack just two days after returning, it was because Emperor Dongli did not believe that Nangong Yuan was still alive.
He was certain that the person who appeared on the city wall must be fake. Beichen deliberately found a person who looked like Nangong Yuan and had him wear black armor and stand on the city wall in order to intimidate their soldiers.
Therefore, within two days, they launched a second attack and increased their military strength. However, after being defeated again, they realized that the man was not a fake, but Nangong Yuan himself.
When Emperor Dongli found out, he almost died of anger. He had put in so much effort, but in the end the person was still alive.
However, he did not order the assassination again. Instead, he thought of another way, so he wrote a letter directly and sent it to Ye Li.
Ye Li was shocked to learn that Nangong Yuan was not dead but had returned to Yanlang City. However, when he saw what Emperor Dongli asked him to do, he couldn't help but frowned.
