wedding dress

Chapter 253 Winter
During the Chinese New Year, the fifth princess also returned to the palace——

This is inevitable.

The emperor's family also celebrates the New Year, and like ordinary people, they always have a family reunion during the New Year.

But the fifth princess didn't seem to be happy. She dawdled until the 28th year before returning to the palace from Linghua Temple.

Xiaodong was a little puzzled at first, Ming Guifei has not been in good health since her serious illness that year, and now she is like an invisible person in the palace.

In my impression, the relationship between the Fifth Princess and Concubine Ming is very close, at least much better than that between Concubine Shu and Princess Six.Xiaodong has seen two mothers and daughters lingering around the imperial pavilion where peonies are in full bloom, their charming smiles are exactly the same, holding a round fan with fluttering butterflies in their hands, the beauties on the fan are also eclipsed in front of the mother and daughter.

Xiaodong was very impressed.

She felt very envious at that time.

An Wang is very good to her, very good.But she still wanted to know, if her mother Yao Qingyuan was still alive, would they be as close as Concubine Ming and Fifth Princess?
But since Mr. Fifth Princess suffered from sores and Concubine Ming fell ill again, the relationship between the two seems to be no longer what it used to be.Later, when the five princesses got married or lost their husbands, the imperial concubine Ming rarely appeared.Even when the fifth princess left Linxianghou's mansion and returned to the palace, she still lived in Yilan Palace, and she was never seen getting closer to Concubine Ming.

Xiaodong didn't know what happened between the mother and daughter that made them so indifferent to each other.

In her mind, how could there be overnight hatred between parents and children?Is there anything that cannot be forgiven?
Xiaodong got up early that morning to dress up his son.Fortunately, her son didn't need to wear layers of dresses like she and Zhao Lu did when they were young, and he couldn't walk easily when he was tied up.However, if Zhao Lu has a son in the future, as the son of the county king, I am afraid that the child will have a very hard life.

Usually, I don't think that when it's Chinese New Year, everyone else is enjoying themselves with their families. Only the fifth princess, sitting there alone, looks extremely uncoordinated.She was also very neatly dressed.Others didn't know whether they felt that she had lost power, or that she was a widow, and no one went to talk to her.

Xiaodong is busy with Ada here, but he can't take care of it for a while.The little guy seldom enters the palace, and everything he sees is new. In a blink of an eye, he touched the whisk from nowhere and dragged it around on the ground.

Xiaodong asked strangely: "Where did this come from?"

Ah Da smiled innocently: "Maomao...Maomao..."

"Yes, I know it's Maomao."

Xiaodong wanted to bring Fuchen over, but Ah Da refused, and instead pointed to a plate of cakes on the table: "Mother, cakes."

"You have to say 'I want to eat cake'."

Who says kids are careless?At such a young age, he knows how to talk about him.

He just drank the fruit tea given by the queen mother, so he couldn't eat it.

It's just to divert Xiaodong's attention and prevent her from taking Fuchen away.

This kind of childish cunning doesn't need to be taught, it seems to be born by oneself.

"This is not like me..." Xiaodong said to himself.

She was an honest child in her previous life and in this life, and she would never move unless adults tell her.There is nothing to say about Ah Da's temper, he must be like Qin Lie.

Well, sure.

No matter how good a couple is, when it comes to children, it is inevitable that they will be like this.

The good things are all like me, and the bad things are all like you, because you don’t inherit it well.

A little eunuch hurried over, and when he saw Fu Chen, his eyes lit up.

Xiaodong was not very embarrassed, the little eunuch came over to salute, and said: "Princess, this..."

Xiaodong hurriedly said: "I don't know how he touched and played with it, so I'll pay you back."

The little eunuch was even more embarrassed than she, and was sweating anxiously in the cold: "Actually...if it was someone else, I would have given it to you. This is Eunuch Li's. He turned his head and disappeared..."

Oh oh, it's actually belonged to the number one eunuch in the harem, it's strange that Fuchen's head is wrapped around Siegus.This is called low-key luxury. Those who know how to know know that it is rarer than gold thread, and it cannot be bought with money.Those who don't know the goods are only brown hemp silk.

King An also had a mandarin duck vase wrapped around rattan, which he made for Xiao Dong as a dowry.Take it out in winter in Xiaodong, and insert two white reeds or a sprig of papyrus.When Wang An saw it, he didn't feel that his daughter was throwing away things in vain. Instead, he praised: "This bottle should be used like this. No matter what flowers you put in it, it will look frivolous."

Xiaodong said coquettishly: "That's because my father has always been elegant and peaceful, and my daughter has been nurtured."

Xiaodong replaced the whisk with a cake, and handed it to the little eunuch for him to go to work.

The sixth princess also brought her son, and the two children soon played together.There are also the sons of the third prince, the two of them are older, but their tempers are very similar - they are all only sons, so there is no need to mention their tempers.After a while, the three of them chatted and pulled together.Sixth princess's son's temper is just like hers, he explodes at the slightest moment, without knowing it.Ah Da was in the palace, although he was not raised as a dandy and evil boy, but basically everything was done according to his will.Needless to say, Zhao Jue, the son of the third prince.

——Although Xiaodong has always felt that Juezi...of course it's not bad, but it's just not suitable for a prince's name.

But this name was given to his grandson by the emperor, who dares to say no to it?
Xiaodong secretly speculated, and didn't know what this uncle was thinking, did he believe in Buddhism?Could it be that he has been rich and honored for decades and suddenly realized it?Or was it that he was reading Buddhist scriptures during the days when his grandson was born?
who knows.

It's better that my father is more reliable, and won't name his grandson a name that sounds like going to a temple to eat tofu.

But after a few years, Xiaodong thought, maybe there was some kind of feeling in the dark that made the emperor marry such a name to his eldest grandson.

When this child was born, his future was doomed.

However, who can predict the future?

Seeing the three children twisted into a ball, the servants hurried over to pull them away, but Xiaodong and the sixth princess were not in a hurry at all, and the third princess and concubine also looked on with smiles.

"Let them fight. It's nothing for boys to fight." The sixth princess said, "It's not like raising a girl."

Even though she said that, how dare the servants let the little masters continue to fight like this?What should I do if I scratch it?What if it breaks?
Xiaodong wasn't worried either, the three children were all dressed like cotton pads, even if they fell to the ground, they wouldn't hurt.But her family's Ah Da is smaller than those two after all, so they suffer from a fight.

Well, when we go back, it is necessary for the child's father or uncle to teach him the knowledge of how to stealthily stealthily fight.According to Xiaodong's observation over the years, when Zhao Lu and Qin Lie were studying in Jixian Hall, they must have done such things a lot.

The fifth princess stood aside and watched with a smile. Although she concealed it well, there was still a kind of pity and sadness in her eyes.

Sensing Xiaodong's gaze, the fifth princess turned her head and smiled at her.

The joy in Xiaodong's heart gradually subsided, and she smiled back: "Fifth sister."

This year is Xiaodong's last, a winter of reunion and no worries.
