Even though Xie Songhua was informal in front of Xiao Yu, he blushed in embarrassment at this moment.
Xiao Yu was very indifferent, "You didn't eat much last night, and you slept for most of the day. If you don't eat, you may be hurt."
This embarrassing moment was easily and skillfully overcome.
When I walked to the dining room next to it, the food was already laid out. It looked like it was steaming. It was obvious that it had just been served. Who gave the order?
And so timely?
I always feel that there is something mysterious about this yard.
With Xiao Yu's words, Xie Songhua no longer restrained himself and simply went back to Yanchuntai and brought over many medical books, which were all general information about poisonous poisons that he had studied before.
Xiao Yu simply gave her some of the things he had earned from living alone.
She was not lazy and sent another letter to Zhuo Mansion. If she didn't understand something, she asked the envoy of Zhuo Yuan.
Although the imperial court sealed the pen, Xiao Yu was not relaxed at all.
Except when the poison attacks, whenever he doesn't feel so uncomfortable, he just spends time in the study.
In addition to Huang Zicheng and Baiyue, there were also many military generals' faces coming in and out of his study.
There were even fierce quarrels often heard inside.
The matter involved confidentiality. When Xie Songhua encountered this situation, he simply went to the living room on the other side.
After all, he is in control of important military and national affairs, so he cannot be careless.
On the day before New Year's Eve, Xie Songhua returned to the Spring Festival and told them to send New Year's gifts everywhere.
This is also the rule that should be followed. After all, when you get married, you must give gifts from your mother's family, and there is only one Xie Wenyuan left in the residence of Zhuo Yuan Envoy, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother.
Since she lives in the Xie family, the gift cannot be too heavy, but it must be given separately, otherwise it will be a loss of etiquette.
Butler Huo naturally takes care of places like the palace and the eldest princess's mansion.
I just didn't expect that the gifts were given out in the morning, and Xie Li came in the afternoon.
"Third sister is busy right now, right? I shouldn't have come to disturb you at this time."
Xie Songhua was indeed a little surprised, but he still said with a smile: "There is nothing busy. There are only two of us in the mansion, the prince and I. The stewards up and down are all very good, and there are not many things to worry about."
Xie Li was in a daze and just nodded casually.
Xie Songhua realized that she probably had something to say, so he simply led the person into the inner room, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Xie Li looked a little embarrassed, "Third sister, don't laugh at me. I came all the way into the mansion just now. I squinted a little. The palace is really grand."
Hearing this, Xie Songhua was stunned for a moment, and then expressed his understanding: "I was a little confused at first. In fact, we don't go to such a big place very often."
Hearing what she said, Xie Li's smile was a little forced. After thinking for a while, a hint of shyness appeared on her face and she said, "Actually, I sneaked to Third Sister's place to bring it to me. I only told my aunt and wife that I wanted to go out and buy something.
Then I walked around the palace and thought about what the third sister said to me last time, so I shamelessly came to visit."
This indeed surprised Xie Songhua, but she didn't show any emotion on her face, "Why bother saying that? Between us sisters, you can come if you want."
Sure enough, as Xie Li said, she came here on an impromptu basis, and there was nothing important to do. She was just talking about things that happened in the house in the past, and about her future marriage.
By the way, I want to learn from Xie Songhua and learn more about life after marriage."
That day at Xiangshan Temple, Xie Songhua just gave Xie Li some advice based on the idea of doing good deeds every day.
Although she and Xie Li did not have much conflict later on, the words "sisterly love" have nothing to do with each other.
Therefore, Xie Songhua really felt that it was a waste of time to talk about these meaningless things.
When it was time for dinner, Xie Li still had no intention of leaving, so Xie Songhua had to keep her here for dinner.
When they arrived at the dining room, Xie Li looked at the dozen or so maids waiting around and felt a little uneasy.
exist.
Aunt Lan took all those people down, leaving only Aunt Lan and Ding Xiang.
Xie Li then asked in confusion: "Now that the yamen has been closed down, why doesn't my brother-in-law have dinner with my third sister?"
She just asked casually, and before Xie Songhua could answer, Aunt Lan smiled and said, "I sent someone to tell the prince earlier that the fourth girl was here, so the prince will eat outside in the courtyard today."
Xie Li's expression froze, and then he smiled and said: "Look, I forgot this. It's me who disturbed the third sister and the prince."
After Xie Li left, Xie Songhua's face darkened, "Let's find out what Xie Li is doing today."
Aunt Lan came back and forth, "I've already asked someone about it. It's true that she came out to buy things as she said, but..."
She paused and looked a little unhappy, "Where is the shop near the palace? The things she wants to buy are in the east and west of us, so why did she end up shopping nearby?"
Xie Songhua actually thought of this. Prince Chen's Mansion is not in a busy market. The nearest shop is the street where Xie Songhua went to find a broker to buy a house last time. He walked there for a long time.
Aunt Lan felt a little relieved when she saw that she knew something about it, "Just now I heard people below saying that this fourth girl from our house started to inquire about her as soon as she entered the house, asking around, except for the answer from the house.
The use of expenses is the relationship between the prince and the girl. It’s really..."
Aunt Lan couldn't say the unpleasant words behind her either.
Xie Songhua frowned and said, "I'm about to get married to Mr. Su. The date has been set. Why does this suddenly happen? Why don't we go and ask if something happened?"
Aunt Lan went to answer the request.
Xie Songhua felt a little uncomfortable. No matter what, Xie Li was her natal sister.
Even though she and Xiao Yu are not really married, it is inevitable that things like her mother's family will affect her mood.
What's more, just the fact that she asked questions about the servants of the palace was enough to make her lose face.
Fortunately, the palace is indeed well organized. No matter what these people think in their hearts, at least they don't show any abnormalities on the surface.
Xiao Yu reacted as usual and didn't ask about it at all.
The next day was New Year's Eve, and Xie Songhua was a little hesitant.
However, Xiao Yu saw that she had been distracted all morning and spoke first, "Are you worried?"
"How do you always spend New Year's Eve in the Royal Palace?"
Xiao Yu put down the medicine bowl, glanced at her, and then thought for a while before saying: "There is no other way to live."
"ah?"
"I'm the only one in the palace, and I can't bear to go to the banquet in the palace, so...it's the same as usual."
After he finished speaking, he noticed that Xie Songhua's expression seemed to be even more troubled, and he couldn't help but be surprised, "What on earth is wrong with you?"
"Forget it, I'm just a little curious."
In fact, she originally wanted to discuss it with Xiao Yu. She wanted to spend the New Year with Jiang's father and Jiang's mother.
Originally, the two of them had a cooperative relationship, so this sense of ritual was clearly unnecessary.
But now when I heard him say that he had always celebrated the New Year alone, I felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
It felt like if she went to celebrate the New Year in her own house at this time, it would be as if she had been abandoned.
"Well," Xiao Yu didn't say much, but changed the topic, "The house you mentioned last time is ready. Do you want to go and take a look?"
