Chapter 46: Family dinner

Views:

When Mu Xiyao woke up early in the morning and found that no one had moved the bed beside her, she knew that Zong Zhenglin was resting in the study at night. A person got up and let someone serve and wash up. He was having breakfast when he saw His Highness the sixth with a stern face and lifted the curtain.

After looking at the man carefully, Mu Xiyao served him dishes.

"His Royal Highness, but what's wrong?" Seeing his icy expression early in the morning, Mu Xiyao felt that the cold weather made it even more uncomfortable.

After listening to Mu Xiyao's question, Zong Zhenglin slowly softened his expression, walked over, hugged her waist, stroked her stomach, and didn't answer.

"Master, last night the big steward ordered the concubine and her sister to go back to Shuhui Garden, and then they invited the imperial doctor, saying that both of them were not well. There was trouble in the courtyard all night." newspaper.

Mu Xiyao felt that the two were really haunted, how could they be entangled again and couldn't be separated? New Year's Eve, how many times is this

Quite playfully, he asked, "Is there something else?" What is that woman doing, Tang Yiru? Just let her concubine be so presumptuous

"Master, the imperial doctor said that Concubine Concubine was in a hurry and was suddenly frightened, so she fainted without taking a breath."

Mu Xiyao felt that according to the frequency of Tang Shufei's fainting, this Jieyu flower was not far from the little white flower.

"Her sister," Zhao mama was very puzzled, "it was said that when she was carried back, her whole body was soaked, and she was frozen like an ice cube. The imperial doctor diagnosed that she had suffered from cold air and cold wind, so she should slow down. Take care of yourself slowly. If it is not good, it will damage your body and it will affect your future fertility.”

Mu Xiyao felt like she was listening to a play. When she woke up, the two sisters made a fuss and started fighting? When asked about the details again, Zhao Mama said that His Highness personally banned the mouth, saying that anyone who dared to chew their ears would be shoved out immediately.

So Mu Xiyao just let it go, Zong Zhenglin said not to let it pass, so the obedient should not know. Anyway, it has nothing to do with her, even if you want to watch the play, you have to wait for the two to wake up. She asked someone to follow her to the garden, look at her potted plants, tease the koi, and let out the two fat rabbits to jump a few times. Mu Xiyao enjoyed herself.

Zong Zhenglin was busy with ushering and sending him, and he didn't even bother to think about the people next to him. He only sent someone to say that Shen Shi went to take the side concubine to the banquet.

Tang Yiru finally regained consciousness, and when she heard Shumei talk about what happened next, she was so angry that she immediately threw the medicine bowl, wishing to strangle the bitch behind her. Now I still don't understand where I have been tricked, and she actually stepped on her to climb up in front of His Highness, and she got it.

Tang Yiru's face turned hideous with hatred, "How could that woman run outside? How could she even go to the Prince's Mansion to pay New Year's greetings? She had already been locked up by her family." It's time to tidy her up.

Shumei didn't know why the master was so resentful, so he could only answer carefully, saying that it was His Highness who had explained it, and that he would take it back immediately after he had raised it.

Tang Yiru calmed down a little this time, humming inwardly, if a slut wants to enter the mansion, it depends on whether His Highness answers or not. Now it seems that she is only afraid that she is fetching water from a bamboo basket. Deserved!

Zong Zhenglin helped Mu Xiyao to sit in Concubine Shu's palace first, and then slowly went to the Queen Mother's Palace with the Fourth Prince and his party. Seeing that Mu Xiyao had a big belly, the queen mother hurriedly asked people to sit down, and praised that the New Year's gift she brought was very good, and she looked happy.

The concubines, concubines, princes and family members of the palaces also came one after another, and the Queen Mother was very lively here for a while. When Emperor Yuancheng came in, he saw that everyone was chatting hotly, and there was a bit of satisfaction on his face.

By the time the family banquet started, Mu Xiyao had already socialized with ease among the female family members. Zong Zhenglin looked at the woman with a big belly and danced with long sleeves from a distance. He smiled, and he was relieved a little, because he was afraid that she would not be able to sit still with her body in her arms.

The Empress Dowager was very interested in what Mu Xiyao said, and the rest of the people followed suit. After she finished speaking, Empress Dowager Jin simply took advantage of the New Year's joy and said that she would give her a reward, and let her choose one of the three newest bottles in the palace and take it home, which is considered a reward.

For a while, the female family was quiet, and there were many people who were envious and jealous. I was also curious about what style this Sixth Highness's side concubine would like.

The men in front noticed that there was suddenly no sound behind, and they paid attention curiously. After this look, I found that everyone over there was staring at the concubine of the Sixth Highness, biting their ears in private.

Zong Zhenglin's heart tensed. Could it be that the little woman was angry and offended someone? This is a New Year's banquet. If the Queen Mother and Emperor Yuancheng get angry, the little woman will suffer.

It's a little far away, so I can only look around, and I can't hear what the woman said while covering her mouth.

Zong Zhenglin's expression was solemn, and he sat upright, his phoenix eyes fixed on the silhouette of Mu Xiyao who bowed his head in thought, and was about to stand up to apologize, but saw her turn her head back to the Queen Mother for a few words, and her little hand touched her stomach.

This time, the queen mother led a group of female relatives, only slightly stunned, and laughed until she leaned back and forth. The queen mother pointed at her and scolded a few words, and waved the two little eunuchs to the outside world.

Emperor Yuancheng was also curious when he saw that there was a lot of laughter over there, and rushed people over to find out what was going on and come back to answer. As a result, the little eunuch came back to tell the truth: Concubine Mu didn't like anything in the mansion, but she took a fancy to the barracuda raised in the garden pond, and asked the queen mother if she could appreciate more sea pomfrets.

Emperor Yuan Cheng was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, his eyes not concealed at all, so he looked at Zong Zhenglin several times in a mocking manner. In a better mood, he asked to catch a few more, lest the Namu Sect not be full and blame the royal family for being stingy.

Zong Zhenglin was teased by Emperor Yuancheng, his face twitched, and he sat stiffly, only the discomfort on his face made Emperor Yuancheng amused.

After receiving the inexplicable glance from his first-hand brother, Zong Zhenglin calmly served the tea and sipped it carefully. The woman let him be seen as a joke, so when he went back, he cleaned up and kept his memory. The fish in the family have been harmed enough by her, and now even the people in the palace have made up their minds, and they are really not seen.

Mu Xiyao didn't know that she was about to be rehabilitated by His Royal Highness, and she happily thanked him over there, with a sweet smile on her face.

When Concubine Shu saw that Mrs. Mu had won the Queen Mother's reward and made the Queen Mother happy, she felt relieved. I feel that this side concubine is not small, and can be liked by the above every time.

Mu Xiyao walked in front with her maid and her face was full of spring breeze. The two eunuchs behind her, carrying wooden barrels with several big fish in their hands, followed her with sweat on their foreheads.

Seeing the man standing at the gate of the garden waiting for her from a distance, the corners of Mu Xiyao's mouth rose, and her eyes lit up.

"His Royal Highness, the queen mother has rewarded her concubine with some sea fish from the South China Sea. How about we eat fish tomorrow?" The little face was full of excitement and anticipation.

"Okay, very good." Zong Zhenglin stretched his brows, grabbed the woman's small hand, and took it back to the house.

On the evening of the 30th New Year's Eve, before Mu Xiyao's birthday was over, he was caught by Zong Zhenglin and went to Shuangyanchi to play around with it. When he came back, he was tossing with all kinds of tricks and tricks. In the end, he still choked and whispered to His Highness, so that Zong Zhenglin roared and called Jiaojiao, letting her go.

Lying on the bed, the considerate Sixth Highness said that since Concubine Mu loves to eat fish, it would be inappropriate to give a big red envelope during the Chinese New Year.

When Mu Xiyao heard that the Lunar New Year money she had been looking forward to for a long time was swallowed up by this man, she was immediately annoyed, and her little feet greeted him vigorously.

Zong Zhenglin didn't care about her little effort, stroking the beauty's back and enjoying it very much.

"Jiaojiao is so enthusiastic, she must be thinking of making out with this hall."

Mu Xiyao was so frightened that she quickly retracted her feet, leaned against the man's chest and curled up into a ball, and fell asleep sweetly after a while. Zong Zhenglin looked at the woman softly shrinking in his arms, and slowly closed his eyes, putting his arms around the person and sticking to one place.

Early in the morning on the first day of the first lunar month, everyone in Danruo Garden found that Concubine Mu Side was in a good mood. She smiled brightly and spoke lightly from the moment she opened the door.

Only Mo Lan knew that the master found a big red envelope under the pillow this morning, and the silver notes inside were a thick stack. The master has been delighted to this day since he saw the silver note. Really... His Royal Highness is used to it. The master has never seen money like this before.
