good wife

Chapter 368
"Since it was rewarded by the mother and concubine, it is natural to let them do something, and the palace can't let them keep supporting them." After Jingyi finished speaking, she turned to look at Liu Xing'er and said: "Liu Xing'er, wait for it In [-], I will start to arrange your marriage. Madam He, you are an old man by my side, and you should put more thought into Liu Xinger's marriage."

"Yes! This old slave understands." After speaking, he looked at Liu Xing'er with a smile.

Liu Xing'er blushed, "You will make me happy with this servant! This servant will help you make tea." After saying that, she took the teapot which still had half a pot of tea and rushed out.

Jingyi chuckled a few times and said: "Look, I'm still embarrassed!"

"My lord, this New Year's Eve is approaching. According to the practice of closing the city, the day before the New Year's Eve, which is the 29th, you and the prince are going to entertain some officials and family members who are closing the city. Look, this time How do we arrange the main course?" He Momo said, and handed over a menu.

Jingyi looked at them one by one, stroked her forehead with her hand, and said: "It's just these rare delicacies! Just look at the arrangement, and the dishes are almost enough. Don't waste too much. Right now, the prince's life It’s hard, money is spent everywhere here, and there are countless pairs of eyes staring at us in the capital. As long as it’s true, it’s not too extravagant.”

"Yes!" Mother He agreed, and said again: "Then you let the slaves prepare so much pork?"

"That's it, you guys are going to make preparations today and tomorrow, and make more dumplings on Thirty's Day, so that everyone in the Fuchu can make them together."

"Dumplings?" Madam He was taken aback, "Princess, are you thinking about this?"

"There are so many refugees outside the city, and we have to find a way to let them celebrate the new year too! Be happy! Have you been to the Charity Hall? Are you all arranged?"

"Go back to the princess, the arrangements are made. I ordered someone to send the pork over yesterday. I heard that the stuffing is chopped today, and the meatballs will be croquetted tomorrow."

"Well, that's good. Tell the fifth day over there to keep an eye on the whole house, and don't let some restless servants stretch their hands to the places they don't! The people who live there But they are all children without father and mother! We must not let people think of taking advantage of these children!"

"Yes! Don't worry, Princess Chu, this person is ruthless! No one dares to think about running the charity hall in an orderly manner!"

"There is no best! I know the ability of the fifth day of the lunar new year. Tomorrow is 28, and you have to prepare the banquet for the day after tomorrow. I am afraid that you will have to work hard for a few days. Did you chop the minced meat?"

"Back to the palace, more than half of it was chopped up, and now it's still being chopped up in the dining room."

"It's a rare time for the people to eat dumplings. Remember to tell the stuffing nurse to put more meat and less cabbage."

"Yes! Even if you are kind-hearted, let alone meat dumplings, even if you send them some white flour buns, they should be grateful to you!"

Jingyi smiled, "You can arrange it first. We will hold a banquet at the house the day after tomorrow, remember to bring two pots of food to the outside of the city, and then send two carts of steamed buns. I said it was the prince's intention. When it is thirty In the evening of that day, I ordered people to take all the dumplings to the porridge shed outside the city to cook, and everyone ate a few. It can be regarded as the Chinese New Year.”

"Yes!" Nanny He replied with a smile, and backed out.

Jingyi put away her smile, her face turned slightly chilly, and said, "Si Mo!"

A black shadow jumped down from the roof, "Master!"

"Go over there and keep an eye on it. Although it's a good deed, there's nothing wrong with it. If you're alone, I'm afraid you'll be too busy. Go find Siqin and ask her for a few more people."

"Yes!" After Si Mo finished speaking, he flew out of the room.

Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief, opened the window, and suddenly the cold wind hit her face, Jingyi closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths and said: "It is said that the coldest winter is over, and it will be warm spring! I hope you don't let me Too disappointed, try some unscrupulous little tricks to get rid of me!"

Haitang entered the room, looked at it, and said anxiously: "What are you doing? My God! You are going to sit there soon." As she spoke, she closed the window, "It's not that my servant is nagging you, you always In this way, if you catch cold again, what should you do? It’s the New Year’s Eve! You don’t want to celebrate the New Year in peace and health?”

Haitang took the hand stove from the side and put it in Jingyi's hand, "Fortunately, the prince is not here, otherwise I might not know how to blame you!"

Jingyi smiled uncomfortably, "I just opened the window, and you came in. I just think this room is too stuffy! I want to get some air. Why is it as serious as you said?"

"If you feel bored, it's better to let the servants accompany you outside for a walk, and wearing a big coat is worse than blowing the cold wind just now!"

"Okay. That being the case, you can go out with me for a walk."

Haitang dressed Jingyi in the gown, and let Jingyi take the hand stove, then went out and wandered around the yard.

"Princess, look, the plum blossoms are in full bloom!"

Jingyi nodded, "I've only been here for a few days, why are there so many plum blossoms in the back garden?"

"The lord ordered someone to move it from another courtyard, saying that you can come out to admire the plum blossoms when you recover from illness." Haitang replied.

There was a smile on Jingyi's lips, Yuanxi was always so considerate and understood her so well.

Jingyi stretched out her hand and gently pressed down a plum branch, then put it in her nose, and the light fragrance was immediately inhaled into her spleen and lungs!

After a while, Jingyi turned around, "Let's go. We will have a banquet in the future, so go to the dining room to have a look."

In the evening, Yuan Xi was in the study with a serious expression on his face! "Have you found out who spread the rumors?"

"Go back to your lord, we found out, it's Mrs. Peng."

"Peng Jianghao's wife?"

"Go back to the prince!"

Yuan Xi's eyes turned cold, as if he wanted to freeze everything in front of him. "What a Mrs. Peng! Has her details been found out?"

"Go back to the prince, we found out. She is Concubine De's distant cousin."

"Oh? Mrs. Peng Yang? This is interesting! Is it the meaning of concubine De?"

"Back to the prince, a few days ago, the concubine also sent people to thoroughly investigate these rumors, but they didn't use the power of our secret cabinet, only the people around her."

"What did the princess find out?"

"Returning to the prince, we only found out the content of these rumors and the people who spread them, but did not find out about Mrs. Peng."

Yuan Xi nodded, "That was a few days ago. Now, I'm afraid this Yiyi should already know that this Peng Yang did it."

"Forget it, you keep watching people closely! Report any situation at any time!" After Yuan Xi finished speaking, he ignored Wushang and left the study room, heading straight to the Wenhua Academy.
