wedding dress

Chapter 207 Winter

Qin Lie put it more simply, without discussing or explaining at all, and said directly: "Since Big Brother Li entrusted the child to you, then you have full control over it."

Listen, you are really trustworthy.

But listening to these words, Zhang Ziqian's burden is also very heavy, and he has to bear full responsibility.The child is handed over to him, how to teach the family members not to interfere, but in the end you return the child, you can't be a piece of trash, right?
After washing his face and changing his clothes, Qin Lie threw himself on the bed: "I'm exhausted."

Xiaodong sat down on the edge of the bed, gently rubbing his shoulders: "A lot of things today?"

"Well, I'll be fine after I've been busy for the past few days." Qin Lie pulled Xiaodong and fell asleep, and kissed her hard on the face twice: "How are you at the fourth princess's house today? I said I would accompany you Go, you won't let me."

"The sixth sister-in-law brought her son-in-law with her when the whole place was full. We listened to the music inside, and Luo Wei accompanied the fourth son-in-law to drink and talk outside."

"Meet Miss Yin?"

"See you." Xiaodong was a little lost in thought, and smiled for a while: "I'm too stupid to guess what she's thinking." Xiaodong told Qin Lie about the meeting today: "Miss Yin is older than me." How old is she, but she is calmer than me. We talked about going to school, studying and so on, how her life is at home, about her and her brother, what she thinks...all of these were not asked. "

Qin Lie smiled and scratched her nose: "Stupid girl, is there anything you can't figure out? If she didn't want to, she wouldn't go to the fourth princess's house today, let alone talk to you alone. You must know that gossip is the most indispensable thing in the capital, she talked with you for so long in the same room, do you think no one else can see it? What do you think they will guess?"

"Oh, I didn't think about it that much."

"If you care about it, you will be in chaos." Qin Lie said, "You wouldn't be surprised if it were normal."

Sure enough, Qin Lie was a bystander.

Now there are rumors in the capital, if Miss Yin doesn't want to get involved with Prince An's Mansion, the best way is of course to stay behind closed doors, the rumors will naturally cool down after a while.But now she not only went out, but also went to the fourth princess's mansion, and chatted alone with Xiao Dong for a long time.What would you think if you fell in the eyes of others?
Xiaodong couldn't help laughing: "So, she is also interested in brother?"

Qin Lie didn't want to hurt her, Xiaodong always put people on the bright side.

Frankly speaking, which unmarried girl in the capital would not be interested in the position of the crown prince?In the future, Zhao Lu will be the king of the county, and his wife will be the princess of the county. Prince An's mansion is both dignified and simple.There is no mother-in-law, and the next sister-in-law is still married—even if she is not married, Xiaodong is not the kind of savage and bullying temper, and it is a good marriage that is hard to find even with a lantern.Unless Miss Yin has lost her mind, or has other reasons, otherwise, she will never let go of this god-given opportunity.Now that Xiaodong took the initiative to "see each other", how could Miss Yin not seize the opportunity?To take a step back, even if it wasn't because of this, it would be a good thing to get acquainted with the princess.

Of course, maybe Miss Yin's thoughts are not so utilitarian, but Qin Lie has seen a lot, and he is never afraid to speculate on the worst side of people and things.

Xiaodong rested her chin, feeling a little annoyed: "Well, I would like to invite Miss Yin to be my guest... She is also a book lover, and she has quite a collection of books at home..."

She looked slightly lost in thought, appearing particularly quiet and gentle.

But Xiao Dong with such a moving demeanor is thinking of someone else.

Qin Lie couldn't tell if he was feeling a little sour in his heart, and said casually: "It's better to let nature take its course. If this matter fails, neither side will be too embarrassing."

makes sense.

Xiaodong smiled at him, and kissed him back as a reward: "Okay, I ordered the kitchen to make three-fruit soup. You should drink more when you come back. You have to take care of your work and your body."

"Respect, ma'am." Qin Lie lay with his arms around her for a while, and said softly, "After a few days of busy work, we will go to Donghua's Zhuangzi to stay for a few days. Didn't you say you wanted to ride a horse last time?"

"Okay. It's a pity that my father has been busy all these years, and he hasn't had a good rest. I remember two times, even if he was sick, he still ran errands every day. I'll ask at night. It would be better if my father went with me."

Qin Lie felt the sourness in his throat grow stronger - he wanted to go with Xiaodong, but Xiaodong got involved with King An again.

Well, the days are long.

It's a pity that when Qin Lie was free, Xiaodong couldn't. The queen was indeed ill, not serious.The four princesses took turns to serve the sick in the palace, not to mention the other concubines and wives.Xiaodong also went to the palace to see her sick, but she didn't even see the empress. The third concubine Wu came out and dismissed her, saying that the empress had just taken medicine and fell asleep.

In fact, both sides are nothing more than face.Xiaodong should come logically, and the queen should have a decent reason to say no.But in the hearts of both parties, neither may really want to see each other.

When the weather is cold, there are always many people who get sick. The Queen's illness has not improved, and the Empress Dowager Shengci also fell ill.The empress couldn't handle it, and Concubine Ming was already in a semi-reclusive state. Concubine Song Shu came out for a while, but later the power of palace affairs did not fall into her hands, and the emperor scolded her. It is the third concubine who is temporarily acting.The character of the third prince and concubine is obvious to all.The strict rules of the third prince's mansion are also famous.This time the third concubine took care of the affairs of the inner palace, but it was orderly and orderly.It's not easy to control those concubines and beauties because they are the father-in-law's concubine.

Xiaodong came out from the empress, and the third concubine wanted to see her off, Xiaodong said: "It's cold outside, besides, you have a lot of things to do here."

The third concubine nodded and said, "Then sister, walk slowly, be careful of slippery roads."

The fog in the early morning has not cleared. Looking from one end of the palace road to the other, the vast fog blocks the sight. Behind the fog seems to be another world, a mysterious, quiet, and lonely world.Someone came from that end, the figure was blurred at first, and then gradually became clear.The thick fog fell on his face, and Xiaodong's eyebrows and eyelashes were wet.

The road from Fengyi Palace to Changchun Palace is not close, one east and one west.Xiaodong walked out of breath, sweating on his forehead.

At the gate of Changchun Palace, the fifth princess also came from the other side.She was wearing plain green clothes and had no pearls on her head.Xiaodong's heart was slightly tense, and she vaguely remembered that when she first met Ou Lanying, she also dressed like this.You are as old as a flower, but you can only spend the rest of your life like a dead wood.It was as if a hand was strangling their throats, taking away their happiness, beauty and vitality bit by bit, leaving only a dead skin.

"Sister Xiaodong."

"Fifth sister."

The two greeted each other and entered the Changchun Palace together.

The imperial physician had seen the Empress Dowager Shengci, but she didn't say anything else. The meaning in the words was that when people get older, they should be more careful when the seasons change.

The Empress Dowager Shengci was quite open-minded, and in turn comforted others: "It doesn't matter, after taking the medicine for two days, I feel much lighter. You all go to your own business, and if you have nothing to do, stay here and smell it." It smells like medicine."

Xiaodong smiled and said, "Even if I'm allowed to go back, my heart is still with the Queen Mother. It's better to stay here, so as not to worry about going back."

Empress Dowager Shengci asked her: "You come from the empress? Is she better?"

"I haven't seen the empress, she said she just took medicine and fell asleep."

The Empress Dowager Shengci nodded, and said to Xiaodong: "You are all filial children, your fifth sister went to Huguo Temple yesterday, and asked for a lottery for me, and got a lottery."

Xiao Dongxin said that even if she asks for a lottery, the fifth princess will definitely give it away and get it back.It doesn't matter if it's true or not. What people in the world ask for a lottery are actually asking for peace of mind.As soon as the mood is better, the disease must also be cured quickly.

Caigu said at the side: "Well, the vegetarian balls made by the princess himself are also good. The empress dowager said that they are very tasty and not greasy at all."

"If the empress dowager likes it, I'll make it again today. But..." Xiaodong thought for a while: "Isn't it better to change the taste? It's boring to eat the same thing all the time. The empress dowager thinks tofu soup is better, or vegetarian bamboo shoots Is the soup good?"

Empress Dowager Shengci nodded with a smile: "Then let's make bamboo shoot soup."

Tofu soup is more troublesome, but the Empress Dowager Shengci chooses the simple one.

Xiaodong took Caigu to the small kitchen, and the fifth princess followed her to help.

Seeing the green circles in front of Fifth Princess' eyes, Xiaodong said in a low voice, "Fifth Sister, take care of yourself, don't think too much."

The fifth princess looked up at her, then quickly lowered her head: "I know...it's just that when I close my eyes at night..."

Xiaodong feels pity in his heart.

Even though the time they spend together is not too long, it is after all a husband and wife.

A couple of one night, a hundred days of grace.

A person left, never see his appearance, hear his voice, reach out and never touch his existence——

It takes a long, long time to accept such a loss.

Sometimes, people tend to forget that person is no longer there.When he heard any noise, he would blurt out his name, but when he turned his head, he saw only an empty room.

The two silently washed the fungus and shiitake mushrooms, and soaked the chopped bamboo shoots in boiling water.The fifth princess watched Xiaodong busy in an orderly manner, and asked softly, "Sister Xiaodong is also busy at home every day?"

"No, just do it when you have time, and it's the same when you're busy."

After the soup boiled and skimmed off the froth, Xiaodong scooped up some: "Fifth Sister, try it."

The fifth princess blew on the hot air, took a sip, and said, "Mmm, it's very fresh, just the right amount of saltiness."

Xiaodong poured out the soup, and Caigu over there had already put the four side dishes in order, packed the soup, and brought them out together.The Empress Dowager Shengci really saved face and drank a bowl of soup.

After leaving the Changchun Palace, Xiaodong asked Caigu who came out to see her off: "The empress dowager has a bad appetite these days?"

Caigu said in a low voice, "I didn't eat much, I just took an extra bite of the dumplings from the day before yesterday, and today's soup."

Xiaodong nodded: "I see, I'll come back tomorrow."

Caigu added one more sentence: "The imperial doctor said that the queen's illness will improve in spring."

Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, Caigu had already entered.

------

Going to have a wedding tomorrow.

I bought a gift for Mother's Day today, and when I came back, I found that the dress didn't fit well and had to be exchanged. .
