Chapter 79 Why Hug?
Mu Chen shook his head: "I hope so, you go first."
Cheng Huai also ordered them to quietly guard the area in the north of the city this morning, paying special attention to whether any girls in that area behaved strangely.
Also, if anyone takes the initiative to enter that haunted house at night, anyone who appears on that street in the middle of the night must be stopped.
Mu Qing left with the mission.
In the Yangxin Hall, Xu Anan looked at Cheng Huaiye with winking eyes, thinking about how to say goodbye to him.
Cheng Huai also pursed his lips slightly: "Aren't you tired from standing?"
"A bit, I'll go back first..."
"Find a place to sit."
Xu Anan: "?"
Before she could say anything about going back first, she was interrupted by Cheng Huaiye's words.
So Xu Anan was forced to stay in Yangxin Hall and watch Cheng Huai work.
When Cheng Huai was also turning over the memorial, he said to her: "You will have dinner with me later."
"oh."
After the conversation between the two ended, the sky in Beijing became foggy, as if it would rain at any time, and Xu Anan sat on a chair and looked at the sky.
After sitting for a long time, people felt a little drowsy, so Xu Anan stood up and looked for a bed. There was a couch for Cheng Huai to rest in the Yangxin Hall.
She stood at the curtain, stretched her head and asked Cheng Huaiye: "Your Majesty, can you sleep?"
Cheng Huai also stopped moving his hands and was silent for a moment before agreeing: "Go to sleep."
Almost no one could enter his private area except him, but now he hardly resented Xu Anan's touch. Seeing that she was tired from sitting, he allowed her to lie down.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was not until noon that Cheng Huai rubbed his brows tiredly.
The effect of praying for rain was very obvious, and memorials were sent from many places, first praising him for his wisdom and then talking about the local situation.
It wasn't anything important. Cheng Huai almost read it once and threw it aside. Only Youzhou's memorial had not come yet.
Eunuch Yu walked in and asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, it's noon, do you want to pass on the meal?"
Cheng Huai also looked at the area covered by the bead curtain: "Pass it on."
"promise."
He stood up and was about to call Xu Anan. She was sleeping soundly on the small couch. When Cheng Huai came closer, he remembered the hug mission.
He really didn't know how to ask for a hug.
If Xu Anan is hugged too much, will he think he has some quirks or perversion? Just thinking about it, Cheng Huai himself can't accept it.
But the number of hugs he received only accumulated to two times, and the remaining hugs were once a day for twenty-eight days.
He took a deep breath, it would be nice if he could be quiet and not be discovered.
So he very carefully leaned down and hugged Xu An'an gently. He didn't let go until the progress bar added a bar, and he wasn't discovered yet.
He instantly felt that it was good to be sneaky.
The next moment, he regained his coolness: "Xu An'an, it's time to eat."
After hearing about eating, Xu Anan opened her eyes in her sleep. She sat up and got up numbly: "Let's go, let's eat."
Cheng Huai was also speechless: "In addition to being active in eating, do you do anything else?"
Xu Anan thought carefully and gave an answer: "Look at the small picture album."
Picture album?
Cheng Huai really didn't expect that Xu Anan's private interests and hobbies were so elegant. He often saw Yu Ruoxi reading books and calligraphy and painting classics when she was bored.
"It's not bad." He complimented perfunctorily, and Xu Anan smiled knowingly: "I think it's not bad, too. It can improve people's souls."
Cheng Huai also understood that it was the sublimation of personality. After all, people who have read poetry and books have a proud air, although most of them are just pretending.
After lunch, Xu Anan took the opportunity to say goodbye, and Cheng Huai also let her go.
When she returned to Ziwei Hall, she saw Shen Sisi, who had been waiting for a long time, Cheng Qingqiu and Hu Cairen.
Shen Sisi looked around her: "Did you go to the Yangxin Hall to have lunch with the emperor?"
Xu Anan nodded: "Ang."
Shen Sisi rubbed his belly: "What about our grilled fish? I only ate a few cakes at noon and nothing else. I'm just waiting for your grilled fish."
Cheng Qingqiu sat on the chair, completely treating Xu Anan's Ziwei Palace as her own home. She sat on the big chair, eating pastries made by Hu Cairen, with a satisfied look on her face: "Sister-in-law, your place is really nice. There is food and drink and it's so lively. If I had discovered it earlier, I wouldn't want to sneak out of the palace every day. It's really boring in the palace."
"Fortunately, it's not too late to find out now, so as a thank you, I'm here to bring you a gift this time."
Cheng Qingqiu's words instantly attracted the attention of several people. Shen Shensi was the first to ask: "What gift?"
After two meals, the few of them were no longer estranged. Even the eldest princess, who was rumored to be delicate and pretty, seemed to them quite easy to get along with and she was very kind.
Shen Shensi likes to make friends with this kind of people the most. They are almost the same age, and they can get along quickly. Except for Hu Cairen, who is also a bit cautious about his status, Shen Shensi is almost getting along with Cheng Qingqiu.
Cheng Qingqiu put his hand into his wide sleeve in a coquettish manner, and when he took it out, there were four sachets of different colors placed on the table.
She proudly shook one of the light blue sachets: "This is the most popular sachet in Beijing now. It has a refreshing fragrance and a long-lasting fragrance. It has the effect of replenishing qi and nourishing the skin, and can also help people sleep. It is very popular among boudoirs in Beijing." The young lady’s love.”
"I had to ask someone to grab these four of them with great difficulty. The number of sachets is limited per day, so many people can't buy them."
She said a little smugly, Shen Sisi took one of the white sachets and smelled it, it had a very light gardenia scent, which was refreshing and pleasant.
Cheng Qingqiu continued: "We each have one, and when we put them on, we will be good sisters."
Hu Cairen was a little frightened. How could she and the princess be sisters? No one would believe it, but it just happened.
Xu Anan picked up a pale pink one. The scent of the sachet was jasmine and a hint of mint. It smelled very good and was particularly refreshing.
"This perfumer is so good. He can always create the fragrance that our girl likes."
Cheng Qingqiu's light blue sachet was fragrant with osmanthus. She put it to her nose and smelled it again before tying it around her waist. She raised her head and asked Xu Anan: "Sister-in-law, when will the grilled fish be cooked?"
The ingredients had been prepared a long time ago. According to Xu Anan's method, the marinated fish was sandwiched between two iron meshes and grilled over charcoal fire. During the process, sizzling cumin powder was sprinkled on it. The fish fragrance filled the entire palace. .
Finally, stir-fry a side dish and put it all on the grilled big fat fish that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Shen Shensi was so excited after eating: "An'an, how about I introduce my second brother to you, and you two can directly cooperate to open a grilled fish restaurant, woo woo woo, it's so delicious, I want to eat it like this You can eat the fish at your grilled fish restaurant."
