The house was lively, and Shuhui was serving the Empress Dowager on the side, Lin Zhixuan also took the time to say a few words to Liuxi, and instructed several big maids under Dongmei to serve the old ladies in the palace like Liuxi for lunch, and the maids of each family were also on duty to eat something in the small room outside.

Liu Xi resigned twice, and the Empress Dowager saw that Dongmei came to invite, but she kindly rewarded the grace, saying that the 15th Festival was a good day, and she was not in the palace, so that there was not so much restraint on the family to have fun, so she just went.

Liu Xi hurriedly said two auspicious words and flattered the Empress Dowager, and then confessed and followed Dongmei and the maids.

In the lively house, Liu Xi asked Dongmei: "Why didn't you see Qiu Ju when it was so important?"

Dongmei was speechless for a while, hesitated for a moment before whispering to Liu Xi: "Mama, do you remember the carriage burning in the palace when you were playing in Shichahai last time?"

Liu Xi naturally remembered this, but: "Could it be that I really punished that girl according to the prince's will? I used to look at her steadily, but I didn't want to be such a person who cares about the front and the future." ”

Dongmei said: "The princess said the same thing, but in that situation at that time, it was the prince who was so frightened that she ordered, and the princess couldn't go against the prince's will." It's just that the injury is not serious, and I'm afraid I'll be able to get out of bed and walk around after the New Year. ”

Liu Xi was distressed when she heard this, and said that she wanted to go and see Qiu Ju, and said: "I'm old, I won't make trouble with you, you can pick up something casually, send it to Qiu Ju's house, and I'll eat something with her." ”

Dongmei never thought that Liuxi and Qiu Ju were so close, but this Liuxi was the person next to the Empress Dowager, and even Wei Mingxu respected her for three points, not to mention Dongmei, what did she command, Dongmei had to listen to it as a holy decree, Dongmei asked the maids below to take the big maids of each family to the small room for dinner, and she personally led Liuxi over.

Because there is a banquet here today, Qiu Ju is inconvenient to recuperate in Xijin Zhai, so he was carried to the side hall of the peony garden in the back garden, but the peony garden is rarely lived, even if there are two charcoal pots burned, I still don't feel warm when I come in.

Seeing Liu Xi come in, not only did she not take off her robe, but wrapped it tightly, Dongmei beat a drum in her heart, thinking that she would definitely order someone to move a few more charcoal basins in a while.

Qiu Ju was sick and depressed, and it was colder than her original residence, so she only fell asleep wrapped in a quilt, and heard someone push the door in, just as a little maid to deliver food, and now I am afraid that it is rare for anyone to think of her anymore.

He only said, "I'm not hungry now, you can put it down." I'll sleep a little longer......"

The last sentence is like a whisper, addressed to oneself rather than to others.

But he didn't want that person to stop in the outer room, but went straight into the inner room, looking at her decadent appearance, Liu Xi couldn't say the taste in his heart, he only stepped forward and patted her gently, and said, "Just sleeping like this and not eating, how can this injury be good." ”

Qiu Ju seemed to be taken aback when she heard this, and quickly raised her eyes, and saw that Liu Xi was sitting in front of her bed wearing an excellent rabbit fur cloak.

It's such a shameful thing to be beaten on the board, but if she is a weak-minded maid, she is afraid that she will be killed a long time ago, but she is still alive like this.

In the palace, it was Lin Zhixuan who gave her face, often inquired, and supported her with a long face.

But the people outside, Qiu Ju has never seen a face.

Especially Liu Xi, Liu Xi is so good to himself, and he values himself so much, and now he looks like this, but he is really ashamed.

Qiu Ju only hated that there was no crack in the ground to get into.

Dongmei looked at Liu Xi and Qiu Ju as if they had something to say, so she only served a cup of tea, and said that she would prepare for food first, and let the mother-in-law outside hurry up and bring in two more stoves.

The two of them were talking separately, but they didn't feel that it was past noon.

Lin Zhixuan ordered someone to remove the leftovers, and served a dessert fruit plate, before asking the Empress Dowager whether she wanted to take a nap in King Jing's Mansion or go straight to the play.

The Empress Dowager said: "Today you are going to make a fuss until the night, I am old, but I can't hold on, so I will only go to your place to rest for a while." You don't have to be detained for me, just accompany the emperor to open the gong and watch the play. ”

That's fine, don't delay.

Wei Yanxian was very happy to hear this, without the empress dowager being restrained, he happily gave the hao brother who was accompanying him a look, and planned to go out to play for a while. Brother Yu stood aside, but he was a little surprised, the little emperor has always been the closest to him, how could he have eyebrows with Brother Hao today, I don't know what the two of them discussed behind their backs, and they were planning to follow Wei Yanxian no matter what they wanted to do for a while.

Everyone talked for a while, and Wang Peizhen and Princess De first led everyone to watch the play in Yishen.

Lin Zhixuan and Shuhui helped the Empress Dowager to Xijinzhai and arranged for a nap.

Shuhui's face was full of joy, after a day of tossing, she was finally able to watch the play, just: "...... It tossed the little aunt for a long time, but I never thought that the gong was started first, and the Liuhe Pavilion prepared by the little aunt was useless. ”

The Empress Dowager asked, "What Liuhe Pavilion?"

Lin Zhixuan explained: "I heard the Empress Dowager say that I would come over later, and a few little girls thought I was bored here, so I had to open a small theater to listen to the play first, and it was easy to clean it up with me." ”

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she just smiled and nodded, patted Shuhui's hand again, and said, "You are the one who can toss your little aunt the most." ”

Lin Zhixuan served the Empress Dowager to lie down and said that she would accompany her here, but the Empress Dowager said no, let their sister-in-law go together, and just let Liu Xi serve. If there is something missing, I will go to Lin Zhixuan again, and ask again: "This Liuxi doesn't know where to be lazy, we have finished eating, and she hasn't come back yet." ”

Lin Zhixuan said with a smile: "Aunt Liuxi is more blessed than us, and she can accompany the Queen Mother every day to serve us and fulfill her filial piety, and it is rare to steal a free time during such a festival." You might as well reward Aunt Liuxi for her kindness, and also reward me for her kindness, and serve the Empress Dowager once, which can be regarded as filial piety for the prince. ”

The Empress Dowager listened with joy, nodded in response, patted Lin Zhixuan's hand and said, "It's rare that although you are a young child, you are not as lively as Shuhui. Anyway, if you are weak, rest with me for a while. Let them go. ”

Lin Zhixuan responded, but she also felt strange, so she sent someone to find Liuxi, Shuhui also gave in to stay, but the Queen Mother and Lin Zhixuan knew her thoughts, and only said that Shuhui served the Queen Mother on the banquet, which was already considered filial piety. Let her hurry over, otherwise she will miss the first excerpt.

Shuhui was afraid that Lin Zhixuan and the Empress Dowager would have something to say, so she stopped competing and only retreated.
