Fourth Master's childhood sweetheart

Chapter 46 Spring Day
In the blink of an eye, halfway through March, even the ancient Ningsu, such as the Compassionate Ning Palace, has a new look.

The vegetation grows prosperously, and all kinds of flowers cultivated in the palace are also blooming in this spring day.

After getting along for half a month, Tong Jia Xili finally got a little understanding of the empress dowager's style of doing things and simple preferences.

Nowadays, even when Concubine De is not in front of her, Tong Jia Xili can often make the old man laugh when she talks to the Empress Dowager.

On the fifteenth night of the moon, there was another round of bright moon in the sky.

The stars are everywhere, reflecting the sky's brilliance.

Such a beautiful night moon and starry sky are really rare.Tong Jia Xili accidentally raised her head, but was also shocked by the beautiful scenery.

At that time, Aunt Su Mala and Tong Jiaxili had just come out from the Empress Dowager, and they saw this beautiful scenery.

"The sky is very clear tonight." Aunt Su Mala looked up at the sky and said, "When I was on the prairie in the early years, every night was such a beautiful sky."

"What Mammy misses is the joy and freedom of running on the prairie, right?" Tong Jia Xili smiled, and couldn't help but yearn for that kind of life.

Aunt Su Mala smiled, and although she didn't deny it, she shook her head and said, "But for this old servant, being with the Empress Dowager is the greatest satisfaction."

At the end of the voice, there is already a little more sadness.

The Empress Dowager is nearly eighty years old, and her body and bones are suffering more and more.In recent years, there have been good times and bad times, and it always makes people around me worry.

"When the sky clears tomorrow, we should persuade the Empress Dowager to come out to bask in the sun." Tong Jia Xi Li said: "Staying in the house all the time will not benefit your body in the end."

"A few days ago, I ordered someone to make a big sun umbrella with an oiled paper umbrella. If the Empress Dowager is afraid of being exposed to the sun, it would be fine to use an oiled paper umbrella to cover her head."

...

No matter what happens to the elderly, the world outside the house is always much wider.Basking in the sun and having a good mood can also help the disease.

"Look at this old slave, Tong Gege always has an exquisite heart." Aunt Su Mala nodded with a smile, and said again: "It's getting late, Gege should go back and rest too."

"These days, thanks to you being by the Empress Dowager's side."

"It is also my blessing to take care of the Empress Dowager."

Aunt Su Mala had already sent Tong Jia Xili to the outside of Chuuxue Hall, and then she stopped.

"Nurse, go back and rest earlier. I know the way, so there's no need to send it off." Tong Jia Xi Li said: "Although the weather is getting warmer, it's always cold at night."

"The next time Mammy comes out, she should also wear a cloak."

After finishing speaking, Tong Jia Xili took off the brocade cloak on her body, and put it on Aunt Su Mala.

Aunt Su Mala couldn't refuse, and in the end she just smiled gratifiedly before disappearing into Tong Jiaxili's sight under the moonlight.

After a night without dreams, when Tong Jia Xili woke up the next day, she could already see some sunlight shining from outside the house.

The sun is warm and sprinkled on the wooden furniture, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Although the breakfast in the Compassionate Ning Palace has been a little bland in recent days, it has been improved a lot according to Tong Jia Xili's modern health regimen.

The Empress Dowager can occasionally move her index finger, but these days, she can also see a little more flesh on her thin face.

"It's a rare fine weather today, and my daughter-in-law has ordered someone to move the rocking chair outside. Why don't the Empress Dowager go out to bask in the sun?"

Tong Jia Xili put forward her own suggestion after eating too much breakfast.

The Empress Dowager raised her eyes, glanced at Tong Jia Xili with her hale and hearty eyes, and smiled knowingly.

"Alright." The Empress Dowager agreed, and supported Tong Jia Xili with one hand, and Nanny Su Mala with the other, and they went to the courtyard of the Palace of Compassion and Ning together.

Under the shade of trees covering the sky and sun, a rocking chair of golden nanmu is placed in a place where the sun is dappled.

The faint golden glow sprinkled on the rocking chair and cushions, making people feel the breath of spring just by looking at it.

Aunt Su Mala supported the Empress Dowager to lie on the rocking chair, and after she tilted her body to find a comfortable position, the Empress Dowager closed her eyes.

Tong Jia Xili took the eye mask from the side and put it on the Empress Dowager's eyes, and said: "This is a hot compress eye mask made by a courtier. The Empress Dowager feels tired and sore eyes recently, and it will be beneficial to use this hot compress."

"En." The Empress Dowager lazily responded, without speaking, as if she was enjoying the comfort.

Tong Jia Xili, who was sitting on a round stool, helped the Empress Dowager squeeze her shoulders, while Aunt Su Mala was making tea there.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere between the old and the young was very harmonious.

After a quarter of an hour, the heat of the blindfold gradually dissipated, and Tong Jia Xili took it off.

At this time, the tea in front of Aunt Su Mala also started to boil. After washing it twice, she made a pot of fragrant tea and poured a cup for each of the three present.

"The pumpkin tea that the emperor brought over a few days ago. Said it was a rare thing, so the servants cooked some."

Tong Jiaxili's eyelids twitched, and she stared at the tea in front of her eyes slightly sideways.

Worthy of a royal handwriting!
Gold melon tribute tea is the best among Pu'er teas. Just looking at the word tribute tea, you can tell that it is a treasure for the imperial court.Don't look at a small cup of tea, its price is enough to make people jaw-dropping.

The Empress Dowager opened her eyes when she heard the words, and after a moment of delay, her eyes regained her spirit, then she sat up and took a sip of tea.

"It's good tea." The Empress Dowager took a sip and said without interest, "You guys should drink it too."

Aunt Su Mala and Tong Jia Xili naturally wouldn't pretend to refuse, so they followed suit.

The tea fragrance is strong, and the aroma of the mouth seems to be able to linger on the tongue.

Outside the gate of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Concubine De, who came from Yonghe Palace, walked in slowly, saw the three of them basking in the sun, and joked: "With Tong Gege here, the concubine will be at ease."

"Look at you, you are getting more and more tired." The Empress Dowager snorted lightly, and said, "Xi Li is much more diligent than you."

Concubine De smiled sweetly, her demeanor revealed a bit of grace and luxury, she said: "Yes yes yes. Empress Dowager, you like Tong Gege now, and you don't like concubines."

"Humph."

The Empress Dowager snorted softly, and said: "If you often bring Yin Zuo and Wen Xian here, the Ai family will like you too."

"It's sunny today, and there is a half-monthly rest in the study. Wen Xian dragged Yinzuo and Yinzhen to the Imperial Garden early in the morning to fly a kite."

"The concubine has already ordered them to come to the Compassionate Ning Palace for lunch when they have had enough fun later."

When the Empress Dowager heard this, a smile gradually appeared in the corner of her eyes.With a glance, he glanced at Tong Jia Xili.

When Tong Jia Xili heard that Yinzhen was also flying a kite, she naturally yearned a little more.A small expression has already been caught in the eyes of the Empress Dowager.

"Look at you, I heard them flying a kite, and my mind followed the kite." The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "Okay. The Ai family doesn't hold you back, let's go play together!"

Tong Jia Xili's eyes lit up, and she was about to say something when the Empress Dowager said again: "Don't be embarrassed to agree, the Ai family doesn't care about your thoughts, if you decline, the Ai family will really treat you as if you don't want to go."

...

Tong Jia Xili was at a loss for words, and then she gave in and said: "My daughter takes orders, and I will follow your orders from the Empress Dowager to fly the kite."

"Go." The Empress Dowager waved her hand and said, "The imperial garden is a long way away, let's go in a sedan chair."

"By the way, tell Yinzhen and the others, don't play like crazy and get sweaty and catch a cold."

"Yes." Tong Jiaxi agreed, then turned around and quickened her pace, and walked out of the Palace of Compassion and Peace.
