Feng Qiao was sitting on a small pestle, peeling the tangerines that Shao Jin had specially brought back from the south.

Because of the heavy snow in Dayan this year, the oranges that should be mass-produced have also become a rare commodity, and around the winter solstice, there were two ships sent to the capital, but before Feng Qizhou asked people to get some back, they were scraped clean by the people in the major mansions in Beijing.

When Shao Jin wrote back to Hefu County and talked about proposing to the Guo family, he casually mentioned that he recognized the little cousin of his aunt's family in Jingli.

Old man Weng knew what Feng Qizhou's father and daughter had experienced over the years, and he burst into tears on the spot, almost coming to Beijing directly, but in the end he was persuaded by the juniors in the house, and the aunts were distressed that Feng Qiao had no mother at a young age, so he was stunned that people rushed to send a lot of New Year's goods to Beijing before the New Year's Festival.

This orange is mixed in, except for Wudaoxiang, there is only the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, and the Guo family sent some.

The orange peel is thin and soft, and after it is torn, it directly exposes the yellow and clear orange petals inside, Feng Qiao took a petal and before he could enter it, he felt that the skirt was torn off, and when he looked down, he saw Da Mao staring at her round eyes, sticking out his tongue and whining at her.

Feng Qiao smiled: "This can't be eaten for you, it will make you have stomach trouble." ”

Da Mao shook his ears and wanted to lick Feng Qiao's hand, Feng Qiao hurriedly raised his hand to avoid it, but he was cold and empty, the orange that was originally in his hand was taken away by Sanmao, Da Mao saw that his food was taken away, and suddenly bared his teeth and roared at Sanmao.

Sanmao suddenly seemed to have exploded, and the orange in his mouth fell to the ground, then grabbed his tail, whimpered and shrank to Feng Qiao's legs, and his two front legs hugged Feng Qiao's calves, screaming in a low voice.

Qu'er stretched out her paws and pulled over Da Mao's face, leaned in front of it and said in a playful voice: "Da Mao, don't scare your brother." ”

Da Mao bared his teeth, and just wanted to give this human who dared to make his face a mouthful, but when he saw that Qu'er often fed her, he shrunk the fangs in his mouth, but his tail kept shaking, and his front legs were on Qu'er's face, pushing her away hard, and then the next moment he shrank to Feng Qiao's legs, leaning his head on Feng Qiao's legs and rubbing his head affectionately.

Qu'er instantly blackened her face: "You have no conscience, I fed so much meat to the dog..."

Before she finished speaking, she remembered that Da Mao was really a dog, she suddenly felt aggrieved, and hurriedly hugged Ermao, who was obviously much quieter next to her, rubbed its ears and said: "Ermao, don't learn from your brother, it's a bad guy!"

Hong Aya, who was cutting the window flowers next to her, heard this and laughed with a pop.

When Feng Qiao raised these three big dogs, they were all just puppies, and in the past few months, the original puppies have grown into a majestic appearance, and the people next to them can be scared to the bottom of their legs, but only the people in the house know that these three big dogs are sticky spirits, as long as Feng Qiao is in the house, he especially likes to stay by Feng Qiao's side, and they are all coquettish.

At first, it was just a random name, but it was divided into sizes by Fun, and every time she listened to her brother and brother, Hong Aya couldn't help but laugh.

Hong Aya skillfully unfolded the cut window flowers and put them aside, and said with a smile: "Miss, the New Year will be celebrated in three days, the second master has already pushed the palace banquet in the palace, saying that he is going to accompany Miss to celebrate the New Year this year, we have to prepare more food, maybe my cousin will come over by then." ”

Since she knew that Shao Jin was Miss's cousin, Hong Aya couldn't be happier.

There are only two masters in this huge Rong Anbo Mansion, the second master and the young lady, after all, it is a little lonely, and now it is difficult to know that the old lady still has relatives alive, and the people over there are so kind to the second master and the young lady, she is really happy for the young lady.

Hong Aya still remembers how much Miss cared about the second son and the fifth miss at the beginning, since the second son and the fifth miss went, although the young lady couldn't see anything on the surface, but she must be uncomfortable in her heart, and now that she has an older brother who loves her, she is even happier than Feng Qiao.

Feng Qiao heard Hongya mention Shao Jin, put aside the dirty tangerines in his hand, and then learned to hug Da Mao and said: "There is a banquet in the palace, and the forbidden army will be busy at that time, Shao Jin is probably inseparable, and at this time, he is not suitable to come." ”

And not to mention Shao Jin, even Feng Qizhou may not be able to stay in the mansion.

Although he said that he pushed the palace banquet, he still had to enter the palace after all, and if Emperor Yongzhen wanted to keep him at that time, it was hard to say whether Feng Qizhou could come back to keep the New Year.

Hong Aya was a little disappointed when she heard this, but she also understood what the young lady was worried about, and after thinking about it, she said, "Then the slave asked Mother Li to prepare some food and quietly send it to her cousin's mansion?"

Feng Qiao smiled and nodded: "Okay." ”

The three of them were teasing the dog in the house and talking, when Lingyue came in from outside, she was still covered with wind and snow, and Hong Aya was already a little used to this maid who was brought back by Miss herself, smiled at her, and then said: "Miss, the slave maid will go to paste the window flowers first." ”

"I'm going too, I'm going too!"

Qu'er couldn't bear it the most, and when she heard that she had to play, she hurriedly turned her head and said, "Miss, the slave is going to help Hongyan!"

Feng Qiao saw that her big round eyes were full of three big words that she couldn't hold back and wanted to go out, and said with a smile: "Go, when you come back, go to Mama Li to get some food, I'm a little hungry." ”

"Whoa!"

Qu'er responded crisply, hurriedly lifted the hem of her skirt, and ran out with a smoke.

Feng Qiao listened to the sound of her and Hong Aya laughing outside the door, shook her head, and then looked at Lingyue and said, "How are things going?"

Lingyue replied: "Everything is going well, Yan Qing announced Zheng Guo to Fengtian Mansion, although Chen Ziyue did not dare to arrest Zheng Guogong, but he was forced to accept the letter due to rumors, and now the group of people in Zheng Guogong's Mansion are still locked up in Fengtian Mansion, Zheng Guogong is tired of dealing with the people of Yushitai, and he has no time to take care of Wen Luxian." ”

On King Xiang's side, Feng Yan had already taken Wen Luxian back to King Xiang's courtyard, and King Xiang even sent someone to Drunken Spring Breeze, wanting to take away the IOU of 40,000 taels of silver that Wen Luxian had written before. ”

Feng Qiao looked up in surprise: "Why did King Xiang make a move so quickly?"

She and Feng Qizhou's plan was to set up another game for Xiao Minyuan, so that he had to make a move, but why didn't they wait for them to do it, Xiao Minyuan got up by himself, and rashly went to help the Wen family?

Lingyue's face was momentarily weird, as if she wanted to laugh, but she probably didn't smile often, and finally just raised the corners of her mouth: "The slave maid heard that King Xiang's people have been staring at the Great Prince's Mansion and the Fourth Prince's Mansion for the past few days, and they are also secretly inquiring about who Yanqing is from them." ”

Feng Qiao was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.

This Xiao Minyuan actually thought that someone had the same idea as him and wanted to win over the Zheng Guogong Mansion, so he couldn't wait to make a move, wanting to solve the "trouble" for Wen Zhenghong, so as not to be cut off.

Feng Qiao pursed his lips and smiled so much that his eyes were crooked, rubbed the big hairy dog's head, and said with a smile: "This saves us trouble, what is the reaction of the Eighth Prince?"

"It is said that Lu Feng went back to Beijing the night before yesterday, and returned to the palace after staying at Lu's house for a day, and today there was news from the palace that the eighth prince was preparing to leave for Beijing, and this year's New Year's Day, the eighth prince wanted to go back to the palace to celebrate the festival with the saint. ”

Feng Qiao listened to Lingyue's words, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

Xiao Yuanzhu returned to Beijing at this time, in addition to the "betrayal" of the Wen family, what other reasons could there be?

Feng Qiao always remembered the two times she met Xiao Yuanzhu.

Once at the gate of the city, he stood upstairs, looking down at the refugees outside the city, obviously it was purgatory on earth, but he smiled so gently, gentle and creepy, and the second time, he asked Lu Feng to almost kill her, and when he met her, he was so breezy that it seemed that everything was in his hands.

That is a person that even Feng Qiao feels can't see through, but even if he can't see through it, what can he do, he doesn't really care about anything, and the previous appearance is just because he didn't touch anything that can move him.

Now, once someone touches him, he is just a mortal.

"It seems that this year's palace banquet is really going to be lively. ”

Xiao Yuanzhu gave her the feeling that she had never been a person who could tolerate betrayal, and now as long as there is an opportunity for him to believe that the Wen family has a next family, give the Wen family a reason for betrayal, she believes that Xiao Yuanzhu will definitely make this upcoming New Year Festival extremely exciting.

Feng Qiao pinched Da Mao's ears and chuckled.

It's just a pity that she can't enter the palace.

On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, a curfew and private candles were opened in Beijing, and the sound of firecrackers could be heard everywhere.

Feng Qiao was dug out of bed by Feng Qizhou early, dressed up, and then got busy with the people in the house.

Although there are only two masters in the entire mansion, there are a lot of subordinates, and those who were able to follow Feng Qizhou to build a mansion outside, and even have been serving on the side, are all old people, Feng Qizhou and Feng Qiao are unwilling to treat them badly, not only everyone is rewarded with three months' monthly money, Feng Qizhou also ordered to go down, let the kitchen prepare a good New Year's meal, so that all the people in the mansion can have a good New Year.

Everyone in the house had a smile on their faces, even Yun Sheng, who didn't like to talk much on weekdays, made an exception today and said a few more words, and the ice cube that had been rejecting people thousands of miles away for many years also had a soft smile on his face.

Qu'er saw Yun Sheng's smile, and said with surprise: "Yun Sheng actually laughed..."

When Yun Sheng heard this, he instantly flattened the corners of his mouth, holding the sword and pestle to the side, and there was a cold air floating on his body.

Seeing this, Qu'er couldn't help but stick out her tongue, and just wanted to say that Yun Sheng smiled well, who knew that Yun Sheng looked at it coldly, she quickly pulled Zuo Yue's clothes and dodged behind him, and shuddered: "Quickly block me." ”

Mom, it's scary...

Zuo Yue was almost ripped off his belt and stared at Qu'er.

"Where are you touching!" Zuo Yue gritted his teeth.

Qu'er said "ah", wanted to look at the hand, who knew that the foot stepped on the stone, the whole person was crooked, and then only heard a "poof" sound, Qu'er sat on the snow with a blank face, holding a cloud blue belt in her hand, and Zuo Yue opposite her was holding pants in one hand, looking at Qu'er with a black face and gritting his teeth.

Female! Stream/!gangster!

Feng Qiao sat in the room, and saw Zuo Yue outside the window snatching the belt in Qu'er's hand, running away in embarrassment with his pants, laughing and rolling around, while Feng Qizhou stretched out his hand to stop Feng Qiao for fear that she would roll down and collapse, and at the same time, he was also laughed at by Zuo Yue's stupidity.

Feng Qiao panted with laughter: "Daddy, where did you find such a living treasure?"

Feng Qizhou sneered: "Picked it up." ”

Feng Qiao laughed, and when he had laughed enough, he saw that Qu'er in the yard also reacted to what he had done, and the chubby little blushing face was about to burn, covering his face and not seeing people, he couldn't help laughing again, holding Feng Qizhou's arm and not being able to straighten his waist.

There are a lot of snacks prepared in the kitchen, and the table is full of food, and for the celebration of the New Year, most of those foods are very beautiful colors, and they look very appetizing.

Feng Qiao was eating while talking and laughing with Feng Qizhou, and the laughter of father and daughter came from time to time in the room.

It wasn't until Shen Shi that Feng Qizhou changed into his official uniform and prepared to enter the palace, Feng Qiao sent Feng Qizhou to the door, watched Feng Qizhou get into the carriage and went to the palace, and then came back, holding up a little overeaten round belly, nesting on the soft collapse, listening to the fun chatter.

The palace banquet in the palace is only opened, even if Feng Qizhou wants to come back, he will have the time at the earliest, not to mention that there is also a custom of keeping the New Year in the palace, during the New Year's Festival, if the emperor is in good spirits, it is not for nothing that officials are left in the palace for a while.

After waiting for the time, Feng Qizhou had not come back yet, Feng Qiao knew that Emperor Yongzhen was in a good mood this year, so she also rested and waited for Feng Qizhou to come back to keep the New Year's Eve together, moving a small bench and Qu'er, Lingyue, and Hongyan to sit around the stove outside, while knocking melon seeds, while waiting for the New Year's dumplings made by Li's mother.

When Liao Yihuan and Guo Lingsi came, Feng Qiao was surprised, and what made her open her mouth even more was that Liao Chuxiu, Shao Jin and Bai Lixuan were following behind the two.

"Why are you here?"

The melon seeds in Feng Qiao's mouth fell to the ground, and then he hurriedly got up and welcomed all the people in: "It's thirty today, why aren't you in the mansion and come here?"

Liao Chuxiu looked at Feng Qiao's stupid appearance, with melon seed shells on the corners of his mouth, and he couldn't help but chuckle out loud, pointed to Liao Yihuan next to him and said, "She has to come over." ”

Liao Yihuan glanced at Liao Chuxiu, when he was in the mansion before, but he suddenly said that Feng Qizhou was left in the palace by Emperor Yongzhen tonight to guard the New Year, and Qiao Er was alone in the mansion.

Her mother originally liked Feng Qiao, and their family didn't follow the rules of ordinary people, so her mother directly drove them out to find Feng Qiao, she disliked the three of them for being too lonely, and pulled Guo Lingsi and Bai Lixuan again, Shao Jin didn't know how to follow.

However, Liao Yihuan didn't bother to demolish his brother, and stepped forward to hug Feng Qiao with a cheer and laughed: "Of course we are coming, otherwise how can it be lively enough, I went to find Sisi, and she agreed to come down with us to accompany you to celebrate the New Year, how about it, Gao is not happy, is it surprised?"
