Allure of a Country Maiden

After the Laba Festival, every household begins to be busy with New Year's gifts, and various shops also begin to make year-end summaries, as if the New Year is approaching all of a sudden.

Even Xiaoer had to take time out every morning and afternoon to check the account books and gift lists.

Shangguan Xuanyi was even busier, coming and going in a hurry every day. The two of them were so busy that they didn't have any time until New Year's Eve.

On New Year's Eve, Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiaoer entered the palace early in the morning to pay their respects to the emperor and queen.

There is a palace banquet on this day. After the palace banquet, there will be a vigil in the evening. Both of them have to stay in the palace for this day.

Shangguan Xuanyi supported Xiaoer to see the emperor in Zichen Palace, and then went to Cining Palace to pay his respects.

"Your Imperial Grandmother is not feeling well. After you have paid her respects, go to your mother's place. Don't hinder your Imperial Grandmother's rest." The Emperor explained.

After Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiaoer agreed, they went to Cining Palace.

This winter has been particularly cold. The Queen Mother's health has been good and bad this winter. Two days before New Year's Eve, it snowed again, and then the Queen Mother was infected with wind and cold. She felt so weak that she couldn't even get out of bed.

Even when her princes and grandsons came to greet her on New Year's Eve, she didn't pay much attention to them. She just saw them once and sent them away.

The Emperor and Prince An had already sent their greetings. Shangguan Xuanyi, Xiaoer, Shangguan Ruixi and Du Yijin arrived relatively late. After the palace maid informed the Queen Mother, she disappeared directly. She was too lazy to get up from the bed.

When the four of them saw this, they went directly to Kunning Palace where the Queen was.

The eldest princess, fifth princess, Princess Anqing, Shangguan Wanru, Fu Ranhui and others in Kunning Palace were all there. They were playing mahjong. Besides them, there were also some ladies of the imperial court. A table was opened for them.

It's snowing outside, and there aren't any good activities, so we can only play mahjong. It can be said that as long as Mahjong is invented, it can be played by both men and women, and is suitable for all ages, both ancient and modern.

When the queen saw the four of them walking in, she quickly called to Xiaoer and Du Yijin: "You two twins don't need to salute. Come and sit on the warm bed. It's too cold outside, so don't freeze the child in your belly."

Xiaoer and Du Yijin still insisted on bowing before going to sit down in Nuantan.

This is a paradise for women, so Shangguan Xuanyi and Shangguan Ruixi went to Zichen Palace to meet the ministers with the emperor after seeing the ceremony.

The queen was playing cards, but Xiaoer didn't sit over.

She and Du Yijin came to sit next to Fu Ranhui: "Princess, don't you want to play cards?"

"I came late and they all started."

"The princess seems to have lost weight? What's wrong?" Du Yijin asked with concern.

Xiaoer looked over and was about to ask.

"Really? I don't feel it." Fu Ranhui touched her face.

"Yes, eat more, otherwise General Zhao will be heartbroken when he comes back." The fifth princess saw Xiaoer coming and wanted to talk to her, so she stepped back from the mahjong table.

Fu Ranhui lowered her head after hearing this, hiding the bitterness in her heart.

That person doesn't have himself in his heart at all, so how can he feel heartache?

"Didn't General Zhao return to the imperial capital this morning? He will be heartbroken soon." When Xiaoer entered the palace with Shangguan Xuanyi this morning, she happened to see the back of Zhao Youwei entering the palace. She was a little surprised at the time. Why did he come back? .

It was Shangguan Xuanyi who said that the war was about to begin, and Zhao Youwei would be one of the main generals on the front line. The imperial court would give those generals on the front line who had just gotten married and were stationed at the border a month's rest at home to allow them to recuperate. Be sharp and fight with all your heart.

Xiaoer understood immediately that this was a chance for those young generals who had married but had no descendants to leave their blood. After all, swords and swords had no eyes on the battlefield, and life and death depended on each other. No one knew whether they would return in triumph in the end. .

"He's back?" After hearing this, Fu Ranhui looked at Xiaoer in shock. Zhao Youwei was back. Even her wife didn't know it, but she already knew it!

Was he so eager to appear in front of her?

"Don't you know yet? He probably went to the palace to recover, and then returned to his home!" Seeing this, Xiaoer said.

"General Zhao is back? Then I know why Ran Hui lost weight and had dark circles under her eyes. She must have received the letter early and knew that General Zhao was coming back soon, and then she was so happy that she couldn't eat or sleep well, right? "The fifth princess joked after hearing this.

Fu Ranhui smiled bitterly after hearing this. The fact was that she had no idea that he would come back, and he didn't send a letter to her. How could she be so happy that she couldn't eat or sleep well? If that was really the case. alright.

Although the father-in-law said that he should come back for the New Year, it was just because the letter sent back from the south did not mention this and today was New Year's Eve, so they all thought that he would not come back.

I didn't expect that he would come back, and someone knew that he was coming back, but that person was not his wife.

"General Zhao is back this time. Princess, please seize the opportunity and get pregnant as soon as possible, so that a year later, our children can play together." Du Yijin said with a smile.

"Don't worry about it!" Fu Ranhui was unhappy after hearing this, and walked away after saying this.

One was the Crown Princess who she had liked for many years, and the other was the person her current husband-in-law cared about. She really didn't know how to face them.

When she looks at their happy faces, she feels that her life is like a joke. You never get what you want.

A flash of embarrassment flashed across Du Yijin's face. She seemed to be a little nosy.

Although she is married to Shangguan Ruixi and is considered a relative of the princess, the two of them have not spoken much in the past year. In the past, she was from a low background and could not get into contact with someone of the princess's status. So the two of them were not familiar with each other at all, and she had forgotten about their friendship.

Xiaoer and the Fifth Princess were also startled by Fu Ranhui's attitude.

The atmosphere solidified for a moment.

After Fu Ranhui walked away, Xiaoer said: "The princess seems to be in a bad mood, so her tone of voice is a bit harsh. Don't take it to heart."

Xiaoer thought that Fu Ranhui didn't want to see Du Yijin because Du Yijin was Shangguan Ruixi's beloved woman and she hadn't gotten over that hurdle yet.

The fifth princess also consoled her: "Ran Hui always has a bad temper every time when she is young. She has given me a look before. I think she is having menstruation. Don't take it to heart. I will see you another day." It’s time for her to apologize to you.”

It turned out that it was a small day, so even if General Zhao came back, he would not be able to have sex, and how could he be pregnant with a child? No wonder she said this just now, it turned out that he had hit her sore spot, Du Yijin felt relieved when she thought of this, she Smiling slightly: "No, I lost my temper easily when I was a kid."

Du Yijin had uterine cold in the past, and every menstruation was excruciatingly painful. Therefore, when she was a child, she had a particularly bad temper, and she knew it.
