Chapter 44

Wang Tong'er led her into the house and asked with a smile: "So, your parents gave you such a name in the hope of having a son, right?"

"Yeah, it's a pity that my mother still didn't give birth to a younger brother." Zhao Di said this, her little mouth tightened in discomfort, thinking that not only did her mother not give birth to a younger brother, she didn't even have a younger sister.

Grandma Chen also came to the hut, where she stayed in the east room when it rained these past few days.

Therefore, Wang Tong'er brought Zhao Di into the west room, where there was also a small canopy bed, which was just right for Zhao Di.

"Zhao Di, take a look at what else you need inside, and ask Granny Chen to help you find Manager Huang to bring it to you." Wang Tong'er was talking to Zhao Di, and when she turned around, she saw that there was no sign of Granny Chen?

From outside came the familiar sound of "papapapa!" and the sound of rattan bats hitting the quilt.

It turns out that the industrious Granny Chen took advantage of the nice weather to dry Wang Tong'er and her own quilt in the sun!

Granny Chen walked in with a rattan racket in her hand and said to Wang Tong'er: "Miss Tong'er, if you have anything to do, just let Zhao Di do it."

"Oh, and Zhaodi's embroidery work is pretty good. She used to work in the embroidery workshop in the mansion."

Granny Chen's meaning is very clear. Whatever Wang Tong'er needs to do, let Zhaodi do it. Whatever Wang Tong'er needs to embroider, let Zhaodi do it!

"How can I ask her to do anything? Zhaodi, you can teach me how to embroider!"

Wang Tong'er thought to herself, they were both slaves, how could he bully the younger ones?

Besides, she is still a little kid, and I can’t bear to do anything with her!

I just heard Granny Chen say that she can do embroidery, which is something that interests me.

I don't know how to do it anyway. The original owner was good at needlework, but not so good at embroidery.

Granny Chen originally wanted to say: This Zhaodi was originally ordered by the prince to serve you, but she still swallowed the words.

After all, Miss Tong'er is still a confused little girl, and has not yet been taken over by the prince.

Don't say it, the little girl will be shy if you do.

However, seeing how much the prince cares about her, it is only a matter of time before he closes the house.

Forget it, just be diligent and come morning and evening to help Miss Tong'er wash clothes and deliver hot water!

······

In a blink of an eye, it’s the Lantern Festival. Like the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival not only holds lanterns, but is also a traditional Chinese Valentine’s Day.

Most modern people think that the traditional Chinese Valentine's Day is the Chinese Valentine's Day.

In fact, Qixi Festival is the day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl get together once a year. It can be said to be a sad festival.

Ancient people were most taboo about separation between life and death, so why did they set Valentine's Day on this day?

Therefore, the traditional Chinese Valentine's Day is the Lantern Festival, which is the Lantern Festival, not the Chinese Valentine's Day.

The Lantern Festival is the first important festival after the Spring Festival. The first month of the lunar calendar is the first month of the lunar calendar. The ancients called the night "xiao", so the fifteenth day of the first full moon of the year is called the Lantern Festival.

Wang Tong'er had already seen the grand scene of lanterns on the Spring Festival. As a modern city dweller, what kind of lantern scene had he not seen before? So he didn't feel too surprised.

Furthermore, she is not going to go to the Spring Festival lantern viewing by herself. If the master wants to go, the slave will definitely go with him.

However, when it got dark, the new maid Zhaodi was in high spirits. The chubby little girl held Wang Tong'er's white and tender hand and shook it. She raised her little mouth and said pitifully: "Sister Tong'er,...

Let’s go, okay?”

Wang Tong'er really didn't want to go, and couldn't bear the little girl's expectant look. If she let her go alone, she was afraid that something would happen to the little girl.

Because she knows that in busy places, especially at night, there are often unscrupulous patters hiding in the dark, waiting for children and little girls who are alone.

When Wang Tong'er was in a dilemma, Granny Chen came over with a bucket of hot water to wash Wang Tong'er's cough.

She heard Zhao Di's begging outside the door. When she came in, she glared at Zhao Di and said to herself, this little girl is too ignorant. She doesn't even know what she came to Qingsongyuan for?

You are taking care of Miss Tong'er, do you know that?

Alas! After all, I am young, not experienced in the world, and have forgotten my duty!

Zhao Di was startled by Grandma Chen's glare and quickly let go of Wang Tong'er's hand without saying a word.

Seeing the little girl's pitiful look, Wang Tong'er couldn't help but curl up her lips and said, "Okay, I'll just go with you."

She thought to herself that if she left early and returned early today, she would not guess lantern riddles or anything like that, but just buy some fun and delicious food with Zhaodi.

But I must tell the prince that I want to leave the house. I haven’t seen the prince these days, and I don’t know if he is here at the moment?

When Zhao Di saw Wang Tong'er's promise, she was so happy that she wanted to jump up. She hurriedly slipped into the west room and took her small purse. She didn't know how many copper coins were in it.

"Hey!" Granny Chen sighed angrily and said with a smile: "Miss Tong'er, just pamper her! The old lady will warm up the pot of hot water for the girl and wait for you to come back."

"Okay, please, Granny Chen."

"Ahem! Miss Tong'er, don't be polite to the old lady."

Before leaving, Granny Chen helplessly pointed at Zhao Di with her finger, causing Zhao Di to make a face in a pretentious manner, and flattered Granny Chen: "Grandma Chen is the best! Wait until Zhao Di comes back to take care of her.

Can I give you some pastries?"

Granny Chen was very stubborn. She tapped her forehead helplessly and said, "You, you! Take good care of Miss Tong'er and come back soon."

Zhaodi immediately jumped up and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay!"

Seeing Zhao Di's happy face, Wang Tong'er also pursed her lips and smiled.

Alas! What a carefree little girl...

It sounds like she is seventy or eighty years old and just fifteen years old, so she is still a flowery girl!

There has been sunshine during the day these past few days, and I don't feel cold even when I'm squatting at home with a charcoal stove, but it's still chilly at night.

Wang Tong'er didn't wear earmuffs. She took out the scarf she knitted and wrapped it tightly around her face and neck, leaving only the top of her head exposed. Then she put a gray rabbit fur cloak on her body.

Zhaodi wore a thick curtain hat, only her two round eyes were exposed, and the rest was tightly covered.

Wang Tong'er originally had a curtain hat, but when she was reborn, she was too small to wear it.

Besides, she didn't like to wear those kind of curtain hats. The reason was, of course, that she had two hairpins on her head and it was really uncomfortable to wear the hat on her head.

And when she goes out, it's not the top of her head that's afraid of the cold, but her cheeks and neck.

In Wang Tong'er's purse, there were thirty or forty copper coins given by her brother to buy cotton thread last time. The other two silver coins were given to Granny Chen and one. It should be enough to spend on lantern shopping tonight.

When we arrived at the entrance of Xie Yuheng's main courtyard, except for the two red lanterns hanging under the eaves, the bedroom and study room were dark.

This means that the prince has not come back today.

The prince is not here, so go and tell Huang Yu!
