Chapter 404

The sun is very warm. From the branches in spring, it reflects the fine fluff on the little boy's face, like a newly formed peach, pink, white, red and tender, and very cute.

His eyes were bright and he stared at the old servant in front of him without blinking, handing him water, scissors, and flower pots. His small figure moved something big, and he had a childish innocence, which made people smile in a sense.

"Xiaoyan, remember, delicate flowers like peonies and orchids, every spring when they are repotted, they have to clean and dry the roots before they can be put into the pot. For example, these old ones are useless, they have to cut them off to avoid affecting their subsequent growth."

The old servant said in a nagging manner, and the little boy listened carefully. Although he couldn't speak, he could see that he had kept every word in his heart.

Nianfu, who had just returned home after a newly opened bush of oleanders, stopped.

Wangcai, who was originally rushing to the butterflies among the flowers, found that she was coming and ran over to say hello intimately. But Nianfu looked at the master and apprentice, but he only patted the wolf cub's big head and whispered softly.

The child is Luo Xiaoyan, and the old servant is Lao Huang, the gardener in the family.

After discussing with Mu Shaoqin for a long time, the father and daughter decided to leave Luo Xiaoyan in the mansion. While letting him read and read with the knowledgeable servants at home, they also taught him a serious craft.

When Luo Xiaoyan was in the garden, he showed great interest in planting flowers and growing grass. So Nianfu decided to teach him this.

The gardener Lao Huang was recommended by Ashun. He has been bullied in the mansion for a long time and knows the character of everyone. Lao Huang is a lonely old man. Although he is taciturn and cold on the outside, he is a very loyal person and has a good skill in serving flowers. Otherwise, he would not have been selected by Queen Mother Mu and sent to his younger brother's mansion.

Originally, Nianfu was worried that such an old man would not be able to get along with Luo Xiaoyan, who couldn't speak, but he didn't expect that the old man and the young man would have a surprising conspiracy.

After two days of getting along, Luo Xiaoyan took the initiative to move to the flower room and eat and live in the same house as Lao Huang. Like his relatives, he soaked in the flower bed from morning to night every day, and there was always endless things to say.

Of course, it was Lao Huang who was talking and Luo Xiaoyan who was listening.

But looking at the happiness and satisfaction that were also revealed in the eyes of the two, I felt at ease.

He used his eyes to signal Wangcai. He guarded Luo Xiaoyan well. When he saw the wolf cub squatting beside the little boy, he left with confidence.

Originally, Mu Shaoqin thought of sending Luo Xiaoyan far away to the countryside, giving him a farm, changing his identity and starting a new life.

But this is not appropriate.

Because of the disappearance of the skinny tangerine and the pawnshop owner, it has already shown that Luo Xiaoyan's identity is exposed. If someone who is interested wants to make a fuss about this, then the Mu family will hide the person to the sky, which will be useless.

Finally, it was Nianfu's words that helped Mu Shaoqin make up his mind.

"It's a blessing or not a disaster, it's a disaster. No matter what Xiaoyan has to do with the Mu family, the more we hide it, the more suspicious it will be. It's better to leave him openly. If the emperor asks about it one day, we say we have doubts about his identity. But there is no evidence and I'm not sure, so I keep him in the mansion to avoid anyone causing trouble. With the emperor's wisdom, we will not blame him."

Mu Shaoqin thought about it and agreed.

If Luo Xiaoyan has nothing to do with the Mu family, they will not harm the innocent. If Luo Xiaoyan has something to do with the Mu family, what else can be more at ease than keeping it at your own home?

What's more, if he was really from Miss Mu San, then half of the Mu family's blood would shed. No matter who his father was, Mu Shaoqin felt that he had this need and had this obligation to protect him.

Some things, once decided, are not that difficult to do.

There was only one little gardener in the Pingwang Mansion, which was like throwing a small stone on the surface of the lake, and soon calmed the ripples.

The servants' eyes were more focused on their own princess. Her courtyard was newly opened and she had already started to buy servants from outside. She had to send some people to serve her, so everyone naturally became even more jealous.

However, the princess has high requirements and can sign up for anything she wants to go, but she must first pass the interview with a new maid, and then go through a probation period before she can stay.

Some people worked hard to pass the exam, but they were wiped out in less than three days. Some of them lack confidence and dared not try it easily. I heard that I brought a few more from outside the mansion today, but I don’t know who would be lucky to stay.

The 9981-day imprisonment ended, and today Empress Dowager Mu officially returned to the palace.

In order to get closer, Nianfu and his parents rushed to meet each other early in the morning. Although the effect may not be very good, they looked very good after all.

After seeing Luo Xiaoyan back, Nianfu also returned to his room.

At this time, a bowl of hot tea that was just right was placed on hand. Nianfu picked it up, smelled the faint fragrance of tea, and sighed happily in his heart.

This Cuirong is really a talent.

It’s been a few days since she came, but she felt completely different around her. In the past, Nianfu went home and fell into a blessing nest, but now when she got home, she fell into a blessing nest tailor-made for her.

No wonder Princess Yongning is willing to be so attentive to a rival in love. It makes sense.

This green lotus is like spring rain, silently changing everything around you in a silent way.

Nianfu now feels increasingly that she is like using her fingers to the maids around her. Sometimes she doesn’t need to give orders from the central brain of Nianfu, and her "body" can respond quickly.

After she took her second sip of tea and put down the teacup, Cuirong spoke, "Princess, Yazi brought a few newcomers here. I took a rough look and left three for you to choose. But it's almost time to eat. Should I give them some food to see, or do I choose now?"

Table etiquette can sometimes test a person's upbringing. Nianfu said decisively, "Then choose it after dinner. I finally bought some fresh bamboo shoots and live fish in the kitchen in the morning. I will clean up those first, otherwise I will get old until the evening."

Cuirong lowered her eyes, but a kind smile flashed through her eyes.

After a few days, she also realized that the new master was keen on cooking, which was far better than other things. Besides, tomorrow is the day of the competition, and she was rushing to go to cooking now, so what she was doing was self-evident.

However, before leaving, she had to stop Nianfu for a while, "The study room has been completed. Please give me a look at it. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can change it."

So fast? Nianfu was a little surprised. But the study room was close to the next door. He changed his clothes to cook, raised his feet and passed by.

"That's great! It's better than I think!"

This is not perfunctory, but sincere praise. Nianfu is not a lady who is well-read. She wants a study mainly to handle things, so when she made a request, she only said that it should be convenient and comfortable, and there is no need to be too high-end, elegant and upscale. She didn't expect that they would make it so suitable for her.

The study is not big, mainly decorated with bamboo furniture and pink fabrics. It is fresh and tender, exquisite and elegant. It is not only matched with the bamboo forest outside, but also suitable for Nianfu's side and age.

The wall on the left is a bookcase. A soft couch is installed in front of the window next to it, so you can easily nestle there to read books. There is a large desk on the back of the right, and the newly made cushions and pillows are placed on the chair at the back, which is the shape of a small animal that Nianfu likes. A cute pink cat makes the person cute at first sight.

Cuirong did not take credit for her and said with a smile, "Most of this is Liu'er's credit. I only made some ideas. She has been following the princess for so long, but she has made up her mind."

Well, Nianfu nodded very satisfied. He walked to the desk and sat down and felt it, and he was even more satisfied.

Not only was the arrangement in line with her preferences, but many small details also took into account her habits. For example, there was a row of pencils wrapped in strips of paper wrapped in fine charcoal strips on the table, all of which were sharpened and could be used after picking up.

Of course, Nianfu's usual red-scribing posts were also there, and he was neatly tidy and a delicate little abacus was placed next to him.

Nianfu called twice and said, "Tell the butler that he would like to take Liu'er to a first-class maid and add her example from this month."

Cuirong smiled and blessed her, "Then I will thank the princess for her first, and turn around and ask her to come to kowtow to you in person."

"Let her take the job well, it's more effective than kowtowing a hundred heads." Nian Fu laughed and rolled up his sleeves to go to the kitchen.

Although it is to improve food for the fiancé, the whole family also benefited from it while eating.

The spring bamboo shoots are tender and fragrant, combined with the unique secret sauerkraut, and the thin slices of pork belly with moderate fatness and thinness, which are fresh and refreshing, fresh and fragrant. They are Ouyang Kang's favorite dish.

There is another chopped pepper fish head, which is Mu Shaoqin's great love, which also makes Hui Niang hate and love. She has a good intention to do this, that is, to be the leader.

Another dish of scallion chicken, let’s not talk about the taste. Just the taste brought on the table makes people’s index fingers tremble and saliva flow. Moreover, the chicken is also compatible. Looking at the high croaker, you will know that it means to be the top scorer.

Shi Gui couldn't stop putting down the chopsticks, and said with emotion, "I would have done my brother-in-law's exam every day."

Dad Shi smiled and patted his grandson on the back of his head, "Then you are not afraid of baking him!" But he also said worriedly, "I don't know if that kid can do it."

Aunt Shi deliberately teased her granddaughter, "If you don't get well in the exam, you won't let him marry us."

Nian Fu glanced at his father with a little nervousness, but heard him say seriously, "What my mother-in-law said is very true. If it doesn't work this year, then come back next year."

You can’t judge heroes by exams!

Nianfu was resentful and instructed people to bring up the last Qiyuan Tang that symbolized reunion and wish.

After picking up the two meatballs that were left into the bowl, Mr. Shi said dissatisfiedly, "Nianfu, you can't do this, because your father won't let you get enough to get enough."

The whole family burst into laughter, Nianfu blushed and tried hard to explain, "It's all the dishes, and it's not good to eat so much meat..."

But Mr. Shi didn't do it and played a scoundrel like a child. "Your grandpa is old and the dishes are a bit difficult to chew. However, this meatball is good, tender and smooth. Even if it's not good, I'll eat more."

Aunt Shi said angrily, "Just your teeth, what else did you chew hard? I forgot that you were overeating last time and felt so uncomfortable that I had to go and stir-fry barley tea for you? Nianfu, don't pay attention to your grandpa!"

The family was happily pulling their skin and pulling their tendons. Of course, Nianfu did not forget to send it to his master and Luo Xiaoyan. He was worried about it, not knowing whether Ouyang Kang was eating well, how he slept, and what he would be able to get into the exam tomorrow.

But unexpectedly, the person she sent to send someone to Nianfu after a while, and Poyuan also sent someone to deliver things to Nianfu.

A bowl of fried eggs and meat porridge, and a small plate of vegetables.

Nianfu's eyebrows leaped straight at the sight. Why did Mrs. Zhang's craftsmanship regress so much at once?

Zhong Shan smiled and said, "This is what the eldest young master has been busy all morning. Although it is not good, please give it a taste."

Hui Niang saw that the corner of her daughter's mouth couldn't help but quip, "Okay, okay, I know you can be full just by looking at this. Take it away quickly. Go back to your house to eat, one less person, we can eat more!"

Nianfu glared at his mother and asked his servant to take Zhongshan for a meal before leaving. He happily held her love porridge and small dishes back to the house to taste it carefully.

Well... it's really not delicious. But it's not that I can't eat it.

At least it’s much better than when I came back to the exam last time, and I’ve made progress!

Nianfu was eating the love snacks sent by Ouyang Kang here, but Ouyang Kang had to dedicate the love snacks he received to the whole family to share.

These guys, in name, came back to have dinner with him to help him relieve his tension, but who didn't stare at his food box with his eyes shining?

But it was all a family and I couldn't refuse it, so Young Master Ouyang could only help himself while cheering up and robbing!
