The little petite bag of the fourth master of Qingchuan

Chapter 232 New Year's Eve Banquet

In a blink of an eye, it's New Year's Eve.

Fujin and the fourth elder brother took Hong Hui, Hong Lin, and Er Gege to the palace from early in the morning, and they didn't come back until very late.

To set off the festive atmosphere of the New Year, setting off fireworks and firecrackers is an essential item in the Forbidden City.

The gloomy night sky was dazzled by fireworks. Kangxi took his clan, foreign vassals, Baylor, Gong, etc., first-rank military ministers, Nanshufang, and foreign envoys to watch together.

Thousands of sounds rang out, and thunder shook the sky, even Gu Yaoyao could hear the movement in Baylor's mansion.

Anyway, the fourth elder brother and the others won't come back for a while, Gu Yaoyao is not too anxious except for Er Gege, and doesn't start to change clothes until after dinner.

What she changed into today was a plum red flag dress with large blooming flowers embroidered with silver thread, and embroidered shoes of the same color, with large pearls dotted on the toe, which were dazzling.

On weekdays, Gu Yaoyao would not necessarily wear such shoes in front of Fujin.

But today is Chinese New Year after all - if you dress too plainly, it would be rude.

She was dressing up, and Dundun and Heihei were chasing each other around the makeup mirror—Er Gege was not in the room, and the little animals couldn't find their little master, so they fell down sleepily after playing for a while.

Liu'er came over with a food bowl.

Today's Chinese New Year - cats and dogs also have to eat a lot. In addition to the few things that Dundunheihei usually likes to eat, Liu'er also specially added meals for them.

Dundun barking, and wagging his tail after eating, he ran in circles in Huabu Xiaozhu.

Gu Yaoyao called Liu'er over and told her: "There are fireworks everywhere today, watch them carefully—don't sneak out and accidentally hurt yourself."

Liu'er agreed loudly.

Although the fourth elder brother and Fujin hadn't come back yet, the temporary theater troupe had already arrived - the theater troupe was set up in the open space at the junction of the front and back yards, and it was also a troupe used in the mansion, and it was already singing at this time.

Geng Gege and several other concubines went to see it.

Wu Gege came over and wanted to call Gu Yaoyao together, but his eyes fell on her stomach, and he swallowed the words back.

Now this stomach is expensive, so let's say goodbye.

Gu Yaoyao herself didn't plan to go there - firstly, she didn't have much interest in the troupe; secondly, thinking of the jealous eyes of Geng Gege and the other concubines, Gu Yaoyao felt that she was still safe and sound. It's better to be safe in your own room.

At least until the baby landed.

If she didn't go, Wu Gege simply didn't go. The two of them were eating snacks and drinking drinks in the main room while talking, and they talked about the matter of Li Fangfujin before.

Just in time, the little eunuchs in the front yard had already tried to set off fireworks, preparing for Fourth Master's return to the mansion in a while.

Wu Gege looked up at the night sky—the colorful fireworks reflected in her eyes.

She sighed softly: "It's been a few months since the talent left..."

Gu Yaoyao turned her head and took a deep look at Wu Gege.

Wu Gege didn't sympathize with Li Fangfujin, it's just that people are not grass and trees.

……

Very late, the fourth elder brother and Fujin came back with their children.

Gu Yaoyao was concerned about Er Gege, so she asked people to wait for the news at the gate of the mansion early, and as soon as she heard that the master was back, she hurried there.

It happened to welcome the fourth elder brother and Fujin back home.

Er Gege was carried down from the carriage by the wet nurse, and a group of servants surrounded her—now that Gu Yaoyao had already told her that the servants waited on Er Gege to the palace, and they did not dare to feed the little master at will eat.

In addition, the fourth elder brother also emphasized this point, and Fujin was also watching.

Seeing Gu Yaoyao, Er Gege immediately grinned: "Er Niang!"

She struggled in the nurse's arms, and when her little feet touched the ground, she ran over and stuck her head in Gu Yaoyao's leg.

Both Erman and Dailan were taken aback, and quickly supported Gu Yaoyao, fearing that Ergege would be too young to collide with each other—it would be bad if it hit Euniang's stomach.

Fortunately, Gu Yaoyao had been prepared for a long time. When she saw her daughter running over, she turned her body slightly to one side, then stretched out her hand to grab Er Gege, and brought her small body to the side as a buffer.

Gu Yaoyao squatted down.

Er Gege stretched out her small arms to wrap around Gu Yaoyao's neck, and slapped Eniang's cheek.

Seeing the fourth elder brother smiling and looking at their mother and daughter, Fujin was a little panting beside him, and then not to be outdone, he asked the wet nurse to pull Honghui elder brother over.

She bent down, squeezed Honghui's little hand, and guided him with a smile on her face: "Is Chinese New Year fun? Do you want to watch the fireworks with Ama?"

They were children after all, Honghui thought of the beautiful fireworks in the Forbidden City, happily raised his two chubby hands above his head, and nodded vigorously.

Like a little rabbit, he hopped over to the fourth elder brother and stretched out his soft little hand. For the first time, he overcame the fear of Ama's majesty, and held the fourth elder brother's little finger timidly: "Ama , watch the fireworks with Honghui!"

Fujin was very happy-good boy!That's what I want, try to get Amara to the main courtyard.

Not only this time, but every time in the future.

Father and son, how can there be anything to be afraid of?
The more you see, the more intimate you will be.

The fourth elder brother was a bit tired. He originally wanted to go back to the study in the front yard to change his clothes, and then go to the back of the main yard to go to the family banquet of the people in the mansion, but at this time, he was pulled by Hong Hui's little hand, and his heart was touched with warmth.

He looked down at Hong Hui, raised his hand to touch his son's tender face, and beckoned Er GeGe to come over.

A son and a daughter were on both sides, the fourth elder brother looked at this and then at that, and then with a strong arm, he hugged the two children.

He strode towards Fujin main courtyard.

Fujin and Gu Yaoyao quickly followed.

In the shadow of the lights, Hongqin stood silently, as if he had become a forgotten statue.

He silently looked at the back of Ama holding his younger siblings away, then his eyes passed over Gu Gege coldly, and finally fell on Fujin.

……

The fourth elder brother and Fujin sat down in the main courtyard, and everyone was already waiting at the entrance of the courtyard. At this time, they followed in, knelt down together, and kowtowed to the fourth elder brother and Fujin to congratulate the new year.

The fourth elder brother smiled, turned his head and told Su Peisheng: "Bring the booklet that was rewarded by the palace."

Su Peisheng agreed, went out and waved his hand on the steps, and quickly asked Xiao Lazi to bring it over.

Under the light, the brocade on the brochure was bright and dazzling. The fourth elder brother flipped through it for a while, then turned his head slightly, pointed to the brochure and flipped through several pages, stopping from time to time to give instructions to Fujin.

Fujin first smiled and thanked her—it was for her own sake.

After that, she listened carefully, her face was slightly sour, but she still managed to hold it back.

Gu Yaoyao was at the bottom, knowing in her heart: This is the meaning of the fourth elder brother who is also distributing the rewards from the palace to himself.
