The prince who was defeated in the war is so generous and gracious, which is also an odd number. Therefore, the court is more flattering to this highness. Jin Siyu is in a good mood, and moves all the rewards from the palace to Shaoyao's house, making it difficult for Miss Shaoyao and those in the house to go in and out. There is a smile on the corner of the mouth, and joy on the tip of the brow—everyone knows that after the new year, Miss Shaoyao will officially take over the house.
On the morning of New Year's Eve, the guards in the outer courtyard at home in Pucheng had a holiday in shifts, and they came back to be on duty in the evening. Lao Liu, "newly married", was naturally also on vacation. I'm busy, so I might as well rest. He had a rest a few days ago, so it's fine for him to be here now. Anyway, the prince was not there in the morning and went to the camp outside the city.
The guards were naturally happy, and they all left happily. Only Lao Liu and a bunch of servants were left to guard the front yard. There were scraps of paper, and he had a bad attitude towards a sweeper, forcing him to sweep a yard seven times.
When Lao Liu didn't go home for the New Year, his wife, Jiarong, also went back to the mansion to see her sisters, put on fake scars and entered the door, and found that people in the embroidery room were wandering around, so she asked what was going on, and the elder aunt of the embroidery room said: " This morning, a crazy wild cat came from nowhere, and suddenly jumped into the embroidery room. The girls were frightened and chased after it. The cat ran around and scratched a lot of clothes, nothing else. The belt of an autumn-colored arrow-sleeved boa robe was torn, and the embroidery on the belt is complicated, and it cannot be done well in a short time, and it is about to be sent in, how can this be good?"
Jiarong was also stunned there, this is a girl who has no idea, she only knows how to accompany the girls to frown, but when the eldest aunt saw her, her eyes suddenly lit up and said: "Jiarong, you are a bride, and you are a good embroiderer. When you marry, you should make some clothes for your husband."
Jiarong's face flushed, she hesitated for a while and said, "Yes..."
"I saw your three tigers wearing an autumn-scented robe last time after they came off duty. The embroidery is very good." The eldest aunt clapped her hands and said, "You made it, right?"
Jiarong nodded, and the eldest aunt's eyes lit up, she said: "I remember you are best at embroidering odds and ends, does that robe have a belt?"
Jiarong hesitated for a moment, she did make the dress for Lao Liu, she put a lot of effort into it, the collar, cuffs, cuffs and belt were embroidered very delicately, Lao Liu wore it, but said she was just a servant, dressed too much Eye-catching would cause trouble, so she didn't dare to put on that delicate belt. She herself felt sorry for her husband, and thought why her old Liu, who was so handsome, couldn't wear it? But he didn't want to bring trouble to Old Liu, so he agreed and put the belt away in the dressing table.
I want to give this away, but I can't take it back. Thinking of my sweet mood of making clothes for my husband under the lamp, I can't help but feel a little bit reluctant.
However, in a blink of an eye, the eldest aunt looked at me eagerly, and she was really embarrassed to refuse to give people the impression that she was out of tea, so she nodded reluctantly, took someone home to get the belt, and it fit just right, the eldest aunt breathed a sigh of relief, Quickly ordered someone to send it in.
Jiarong was about to leave, her old Liu told her to stay at home at night, and waited for him to go back to eat the New Year's Eve dinner, but the eldest aunt tried her best to persuade him to stay, saying: "Tonight, we will put lights on in the backyard, sing operas and play tricks. You can come over to join in the fun, your old Liu is going to be on night duty anyway, and you are too miserable to spend the New Year at home alone, why don't you just stay in the mansion to see what's new, maybe you and your husband can stand together, which means you are also celebrating the New Year together."
Jiarong listened to her heartbeat, although she thought about Lao Liu's repeated instructions to stay at home, she really didn't want to spend the New Year with two deaf old ladies alone, so she complied.
Here Lao Liu didn't know that Jia Rong had stayed. Except for a few people left to guard his house in the city tonight, all their forces had been quickly mobilized along the road from Puyuan to Pucheng, so as to support them all the way.
In the middle of the afternoon, "Changchun Troupe", the number one opera troupe of the famous Da Yue, entered Puyuan. with a full heart.
In the backyard, the butler instructed to hang lantern riddles on the tree, and Qiu Shu, the boy in the study, was naturally able to help.
Old Liu walked around in the outer courtyard, and visited all the places in the outer courtyard.
Because of the new year, the gates of the whole city have been closed for martial law. Recently, there has been a lot of snow, the sky is bright, the roads are slippery, and the gates are closed. As long as they are normal people, they will not take advantage of this time to make trouble. This will be a comfortable year.
Therefore, the garden is very relaxed, laughing and laughing.
Time passed by little by little.
When it was getting dark, Jin Siyu came back, and the guards went about their work step by step, and it was impossible to tell that they had all sneaked away.
As soon as he came back, he went straight to Yinfengxuan, the warm curtain on the door was lifted by his footsteps, and the golden bell rang chaotically, his voice danced with bright joy, "Shaoyaoer, look what I brought you?"
The woman leaning on the soft pillow and reading, turned her head with a smile and said, "It's rare to see you in such a hurry, what good things? Is it the eight-treasure glass hairpin or the flying phoenix jade hairpin? Let me tell you, I already have a lot... "
She suddenly stopped speaking, her eyes lit up.
On the opposite side, a man in a white robe and silver fox fur, excitedly holding a newly bloomed plum blossom. The plum blossom is in excellent bloom, and the brown branches are stretched vigorously, dotted with bright red five-petaled plum blossoms. The petals are huge, and the stamen The heart is tender and yellow, and the long strands can be seen from the roots. Against that person's snowy brocade clothes and crowned jade face, it is as vivid as the person in the painting.
She was absent-minded for a moment, then smiled and said: "This plum blossom looks better with you than with me."
Jin Siyu smiled, his eyes were as warm as spring water, he came over and put the plum blossoms in the white jade vase, and said: "Look, the plum blossoms are more colorful than usual, this is a very strange kind of plum blossom here, it doesn't bloom every year, it is said Only when a beauty is born will it bloom, so the locals call it Doufanghua, this flower... I think it is for you."
"Beauty..." She smiled, touched the scar on her forehead, blushed, and said with a smile, "Have you seen such a beauty?"
Jin Siyu's eyes flicked over the scar, which was treated by Ruan Langzhong's skillful hands, it was already so faint that it was almost invisible, and it was hidden by his hair, so he couldn't find it easily, even so, there was still a trace of apology in his eyes, smiling Sit over and change the subject, "Eat New Year's Eve dinner first, listen to the opera after dinner, set off fireworks and guess lantern riddles, you have been bored for so long, you have to have a good time tonight."
