  Chapter 406 After finishing the wine talk

  , several people sat down, wrapped in the cloak and blanket given by Wei Ruo, and hugged each other closely.

  Just this morning, none of them expected that these pampered young masters would have such an experience.

  Who would have thought that in just half a day, they would be huddled together in such embarrassment, just like this, relying on the help of the eldest girl of the Wei family, otherwise their situation would be even worse at this moment.

  "Gulu~" Lu Yuhong's stomach growled.

  The lunch of mutton soup and naan was indeed quite filling, but after working hard all afternoon, I was almost exhausted.

  Lu Yuhong smiled awkwardly. At this moment, he couldn't take the initiative to find Wei Ruo and worry about what she wanted to eat.

  Everyone goes out and usually doesn’t bring too much food with them.

  I guess the girls from the Wei family don't bring too much. It's not easy to give them a full meal at noon, and there should be none at night.

  Therefore, even if they are hungry again, Lu Yuhong and others will not be able to open this mouth again.

  At this moment, Wei Ruo came out of the carriage, carrying three heavy bags in his hands.

  Under everyone's gaze, Wei Ruo came to them and opened the first cloth bag, which contained a bag of sweet potatoes.

  Wei Ruo put the unwashed and muddy sweet potatoes into the brazier.

  Then came the second cloth bag. After opening it, there were small taros inside.

  The taros planted by Wei Ruo on Zhuangzi mainly produce large pieces of taro, but there are still some smaller taros, which are smaller than sweet potatoes. Now Wei Ruo is taking out these smaller taros.

  Similarly, Wei Ruo threw these taros into another brazier.

  Finally, Wei Ruo opened the third bag, which contained cut rice cake pieces.

  Wei Ruo did not throw these rice cake pieces directly into the fire, but tied them with peeled bamboo skewers and put them on the fire to bake.

  After all these foods are roasted, they should be enough for them to have a full meal.

  Seeing this, Lu Yuhong and others couldn't help but have a look of surprise on their faces.

  They thought they were going to starve at night, but they underestimated the food reserves in the carriage of the eldest daughter of the Wei family!

  After roasting for a while, the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes came out of the brazier. I wonder if everyone is hungry, but this smell is particularly tempting.

  Although the aroma of roasted rice cakes and taro is not as strong, it is still full of anticipation.

  Seeing that it was almost done, Wei Ruo returned to the carriage to get something.

  Wei Ruo came out again, holding a wine jar in his hand.

  "Miss Wei, what is this...?" Yuan Wangyuan looked at the jar Wei Ruo carried with questioning eyes.

  "Thyme." Wei Ruo said and placed the wine jar in front of several people.

  "Miss Wei wants to invite us to drink?" Yuan Wangyuan asked again.

  Not only is the thyme wine itself rare and difficult to buy, but the situation they are in now, it is very rare to have a place to warm up, how can they dare to expect to drink fine wine.

  "Drinking can warm you up against the cold." Wei Ruo explained.

  It is impossible for these people to sleep well tonight. It is really difficult to get through the long night. Drinking wine can not only warm up but also kill time, which is a good way.

  After hearing this, several people's faces couldn't help but show joy.

  Lu Yuhong was the first to stand up and thank him: "Miss, you are so interesting!"

  Yuan Wangyuan said: "Miss Wei is thoughtful."

  Liu Yu couldn't help but said: "Miss Wei, you are so thoughtful."

  Wei Ruo smiled. , and then directed a few people to clean the bowls they had just used to drink mutton soup.

  The cleaning method is also very simple, just take the snow outside and wipe the bowl several times. Although this method may not be able to clean it very well, under the current circumstances, everyone no longer cares so much.

  Then everyone poured a bowl, Wei Ruo was no exception.

  Seeing Wei Ruo's heroic actions, several people were slightly stunned, but soon they all felt that it was nothing.

  In ordinary days, etiquette and laws should be observed, and men and women should avoid suspicion.

  But now that the situation is like this, even if it means a bad life, it seems a bit too pedantic to care about the differences between men and women.

  "I would like to toast Miss Wei first, thanking Miss Wei for her generous helping hand today and for preparing such rich food for us." Yuan Wangyuan was the first to stand up to express his thanks, and then drank first as a token of respect.

  Wei Ruo was not restrained at all, he raised his bowl and took a big sip in response.

  Seeing Wei Ruo like this, Lu Yuhong also stood up and greeted Wei Ruo: "Miss, I can't say anything. Anyway, the meaning is very different from Brother Wangyuan. Anyway, I also toast you." Lu Yuhong said that he drank first as a token of respect

  .

  Wei Ruo agreed cheerfully, then raised his head and took a big sip.

  Immediately afterwards, Liu Yu and Gao Wentian also paid respect to Wei Ruo and expressed their gratitude to Wei Ruo for his actions today.

  Seeing Wei Ruoluo Luo Luo Luo Luo Luo and the man drinking together, Wei Yichen looked calm and did not say anything to stop him.

  He held the wine bowl in silence and took a restrained sip.

  Wei Ruo's free and easy appearance was reflected in Xu Fengyuan's eyes. After a while, he suddenly stood up as if he had figured out something.

  "Girl, I'd like to toast you too."

  Xu Fengyuan's face lost the initial awkwardness, and he stared at Wei Ruo with a relieved smile on his face.

  When Xu Fengyuan spoke, everyone looked at him in surprise.

  He has been silent today, and everyone speculates that he has not completely let go of Wei Ruo.

  Wei Ruo also felt a little surprised when he met Xu Fengyuan's eyes.

  Seeing the friendly and hearty smile on his face and the magnanimous and clear eyes, Wei Ruo was immediately relieved and no longer had any scruples, holding up the bowl in response.

  The two of them raised their heads and drank together, and then Xu Fengyuan said: "Miss, I was abrupt before, I hope you don't take it to heart." "

  Young master Xu is the one, don't take it to heart." Wei Ruo replied.

  Neither of them said it clearly, but everyone present knew what they meant.

  Xu Fengyuan shook his head and smiled: "Some things are just wishful thinking on my part and have nothing to do with the big girl."

  At this point, everyone present, except Wei Yichen who did not respect Wei Ruo, all the others did.

  Then a few people continued to drink happily and ate roasted sweet potatoes, roasted taro and roasted rice cakes.

  The clear white wine exudes a strong aroma, and it tastes more delicious than usual.

  And those rough-looking roasted sweet potatoes, roasted taro, and roasted rice cakes are like delicacies from the mountains and seas and are endlessly memorable.

  Everyone was talking and laughing. Although it was freezing cold, there was something special about it.

  Time passed so unconsciously.

  The sky is getting dark, the wind and snow have not abated, and the temperature is getting colder.

  At this moment, several figures in the white snow in the distance attracted the attention of Wei Ruo and others.

  At the same time, those people also noticed the shed where Wei Ruo and the others were.

  There were extremely surprised expressions on these people's faces, and then they accelerated their pace in this direction.
