Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 900: Chapter 340: Seclusion, the Growing Yu Generation, Family Banquet, Rapid Development (Part 4)

Xia Hong made up his mind and withdrew his gaze, looking through the gate of the Star-picking Hall at Xia City, already shrouded in the night.

This year, he had hardly left the Star-picking Hall, usually only meeting with Li Xuanling and the children, rarely seeing even Xia Chuan. Today’s family banquet was both a celebration for Yu Yao, Yu Sheng, and Yu Ning’s birthdays, and an opportunity to catch up with Xia Chuan about the current situation in Great Xia.

”I have sensed many breakthroughs while in retreat in the Star-picking Hall, but I’m not sure about the specifics. I’ll have to ask Xia Chuan when he arrives!”

He lowered his head, continuing to tease his children, quietly waiting for Xia Chuan’s family to arrive.

Xia Chuan’s family hadn’t arrived yet, but Han Yue and the maids had quickly organized the family banquet.

Chen Xiang Fried Spices, Snow Bamboo Stir-Fried Mane Meat, Green Saliva Braised White Bear Paw, Cheng Guo Roast Lamb Ribs, Crystal Branch Stewed Kui Ribs, Fragrant Cold Fruit Tiger Soup...

With each dish set on the round table, the main hall was filled with a mouth-watering aroma, prompting Yu Yao and Yu Sheng, the two little ones, to repeatedly sniff the air, reaching their chubby little hands towards the table, seemingly wanting to taste it.

”You two can’t eat these, Han Yue, bring some snacks over.”

”Yes, Lord!”

Xia Hong instructed Han Yue, tightly clasping the two little ones in his arms. Unable to move, the two began to struggle with him, but no matter how red their faces got, they couldn’t pry off a single finger of Xia Hong, realizing they couldn’t break free; both of them showed sulky expressions.

”Ah, it’s not Qingyang Wine, did the Craftsmen Department recently release new wine?”

As Han Shuang brought over two wine flasks, Xia Hong smelled an aroma different from the usual wine and immediately asked curiously.

As Great Xia’s territory continuously expanded, the more areas explored, the more new species were found, and productivity naturally increased day by day.

Summer wine now has more than just Blood Cold and aged wine. Over the past year, Mu Dong’s Craftsmen Department has consecutively brewed a dozen new wines, with Qingyang leaving the deepest impression on Xia Hong.

This time, it’s clearly another new product.

”This wine is called Phoenix Yang Drunk. I heard it was made from a new fruit sent back last month from East Ridge.”

East Ridge has started sending things back?

Xia Hong’s eyes flickered slightly as he took the wine flask, poured himself a full cup.

The pure green wine liquid, as soon as it left the mouth of the flask, partially vaporized and dissipated, forming wisps of white smoke rising upwards, evidently very potent.

Xia Hong raised the cup and drank it all in one go, his cheeks instantly flushed with a hint of red.

”The wine is as hot as an oar, akin to a knife down the throat, like an injection to the abdomen, about twice as strong as Qingyang Wine, only drinkable for Cold Resistance Level. Good wine, good wine!”

Xia Hong’s eyes sparkled with excitement, immediately pouring himself another cup.

Han Yue, Han Shuang, and the others beside him couldn’t help but cover their mouths and laugh quietly.

Lord likes to drink; they all know this.

”Greetings, Lord!”

Xia Chuan’s family finally arrived.

Xia Hong looked up at Xia Chuan’s family outside the door, his gaze directly settling on the child in Xiao Ning’s arms, his face full of smiles.

The child was probably not yet two years old, and upon meeting his gaze, immediately laughed and reached out his hands, loudly shouting, ”Uncle, uncle, uncle, hug, hug, hug!”

”Yuzong, you’re being naughty again...”

”Get up, get up, today is a family banquet, no need for so many rules!”

Xia Hong interrupted Xiao Ning directly, gesturing for Xia Chuan to stand up, then turned to Yu Zong, clapping his hands and calling out, ”Yuzong can walk now, right? Come, walk to Uncle here.”

”Can walk now!”

Compared to Yu Yao and Yu Sheng, who were barely one year old and just learning to walk, almost two-year-old Xia Yuzong was obviously much more agile, and as soon as Xiao Ning let go, he ran towards Xia Hong.

”Wow...”

But as he reached Xia Hong’s arms, the little niece Yu Ning in Xiao Yu’s arms couldn’t stand it and immediately burst into tears.

”Hahaha, come, come, everyone gets a hug, everyone gets a hug!”
