"If I had known that the palace would give me a special treat, I shouldn't have drank it in the morning. It made my mouth taste sweet all day long."
Xie Songhua doesn't like sweets, but now her servants like to add more sugar when making Laba porridge, which she can't get used to.
But Aunt Lan also said that this is the custom, so I really had to drink this this morning.
The bowl she had in the morning made her lose her appetite for lunch. Who knew she would have another bowl this evening?
Eating such high-calorie food late at night will really lead to weight gain.
Xiao Yu watched her concentrating on stirring the porridge on the stove. Although there was a complaining tone in her mouth, her hands were very focused.
Because she was already planning to go to bed, she was only wearing her middle coat and a long coat. She randomly found a hairband to cover her black hair. She looked fresh and refreshing, and there was no trace of pink on her face.
No different from ordinary women.
I don't know why, Xiao Yu was a little crazy for a while.
After Xie Songhua had finished two bowls and saw no movement from him, he looked over in confusion, "Your Majesty?"
Xiao Yu came back to his senses, walked over calmly, and then saw the difference between the two bowls.
Xie Songhua immediately explained: "I have a small appetite. Your Majesty has been tired for a day, so he should drink more."
Her bowl was no bigger than her palm, and it was only half full. When it came to him, it was a big bowl. The contrast was too strong.
Xie Songhua stopped looking at him and quickly finished the small bowl of warm porridge. Then he smiled and said, "It's really delicious. Please try it, Your Majesty."
Xiao Yu only tasted it briefly and put it aside, "Well, it's okay."
Xie Songhua smiled and nodded, then sat opposite and waited, but waited until the other party got up and went directly to the house.
"No, no! You don't want to drink this porridge, my lord?"
"I've had my meal and I'm not hungry."
Hearing this answer, Xie Songhua was shocked, "But I can't drink it either!"
Xiao Yu turned to her and raised an eyebrow, "Then I won't drink."
"But..." Xie Songhua was confused, "But I heard the teaching mother say before that if the things given by the royal family are wasted, it will be contempt of heaven and touch..."
"The exception is Prince Chen's Mansion."
He said this and went into the house to make his own bed.
Xie Songhua was left in a messy mood, so she just knew that she could take a sip as she pleased and it would be fine?
The next time something like this happens, she must ask clearly.
That's true of Butler Huo. If that's the case, why bother telling her so solemnly?
After Laba Festival comes the New Year, this is true.
At least that's the case in this era. When Xie Songhua went out again, he could clearly feel that the streets were much livelier. Red lanterns were hung in many shops and some New Year items were for sale.
Last year, the Xie family celebrated the New Year with great trepidation. Maybe this year we can celebrate the New Year well.
Xiao Yu has now moved to his own yard, and Yanchun Terrace is relatively peaceful.
Grandma Zhu was very experienced and discerning in her work. Knowing that she did not like to use unfamiliar people, she just asked the original people to take care of some matters in the yard and did not join in the house.
Fenghuaxueyue continued to write letters as usual. She couldn't stop this kind of thing, otherwise she would have a reputation of treating her servants harshly.
However, the letter she wrote had been reviewed by the government and there was nothing wrong with it, so she didn't bother to bother with it.
After Cheng'er finds out their habits, she will find a way to get rid of them.
The red-tailed scorpions were not well raised and may not be adapted to the northern weather. Ten of the thirty scorpions that were brought here have died. Lan Qi and Jiang Fu were thinking of solutions every day.
At this moment, Gao Ying came to the door.
This was completely beyond Xie Songhua's expectation. She had thought that the lunatic Princess Huimin would come. After all, she had been to Prince Chen's Mansion before.
But I didn't expect that Gao Ying would come.
All in all, two people have
We haven't seen each other for a while.
The last time it seemed was at Xie Li's hairpin ceremony, she secretly stopped him and asked about Chen Liu's whereabouts.
later……
It seems I haven't seen her since.
I didn't expect that she would come to the palace.
Xie Songhua had someone lead her to the flower hall outside, where she changed into clothes suitable for meeting guests before walking over.
In the Chaoshou veranda, I saw a girl standing in the flower hall admiring the snow.
Gao Ying was born well, and her good family background gave her a naturally aloof temperament.
In the eyes of people with lower status than her, this kind of temperament will always make people feel a little unapproachable and at a loss.
But if the person she interacts with is of the same status as her, it will actually add two points of liveliness.
As soon as she saw Xie Songhua come in, she immediately broke into a bright smile and said, "My dear, I didn't expect you to actually marry the prince. This is my first time coming to the palace! I just walked all the way and the scenery of the palace is really nice.
.”
She was talking to herself, and then she seemed to notice the surprise on her face, and then she explained: "Oh, do you think it's strange, how do I know your name?"
Xie Songhua smiled, asked her to sit down, and then said with a smile: "I am indeed a little surprised."
"Runyu told me."
When she said this, there seemed to be a twinkle in her eyes.
Runyu, the character name of Chen Liu.
Such an affectionate address made Xie Songhua raise his eyebrows, but he subconsciously asked: "Who is Runyu...?"
Gao Ying quickly smiled and said: "Look at me, I have completely forgotten that Runyu was the name given to him by his mentor after he came to the capital. You may not even know it, but it is Chen Liu!"
Xie Songhua showed a look of sudden realization, "No, after you said it, I remembered that I had indeed heard someone call him that before."
Although Gao Ying had a smile on her face, she always looked at Xie Songhua with a look in her eyes.
Xie Songhua just pretended not to notice this, and chatted with her with a smile, "How could he talk to Miss Gao about such a thing?"
"I'm just curious! Yao Niang and Runyu came from the same place, and now you have become Princess Chen. This is considered a legend in our Daqi. Am I just curious?
He didn't hide anything from me either. He told me everything I wanted to know about everything he did in Qingshui Town, so naturally I knew your name.
He said that people there used to call you that, so I want to call you that too, because I feel like I have a closer relationship with him."
Having said that, what else did Xie Songhua not understand, "So, Miss Gao came today with good news?"
Even though she is outgoing, she is still a girl. Gao Ying couldn't help but blush when she heard this. She hesitated for a while and then nodded gently, "Well! He came back to report on his work a few days ago. He will be transferred in the spring of next year."
Went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and he said it was time to settle our affairs."
Xie Songhua suddenly remembered what Chen Liu said to him when he made his decision.
She looked at Gao Ying again, although she didn't really like this girl Gao either.
But it can also be seen that Gao Ying really likes him.
If Chen Liu could accept this feeling, it would be a good choice, so she smiled sincerely and said, "It is indeed a great joy."
"Then... can you come to our wedding?" Gao Ying immediately looked at her with wide eyes after hearing this.
