In the letter that Yuan Zheng recently brought was determined that he could not rush back to Hangzhou Mansion before the New Year, the people of the entire Yuan Mansion were much less inclined to celebrate the New Year, but the things that should be prepared still did not dare to be left behind.

Soon arrived at Laba, every household in Hangzhou City boiled Laba porridge, Yuanfu is no exception, the inner courtyard is not to mention, and even the entire outer courtyard is filled with a strong aroma.

"Cheng Xiaofei, I have been able to walk three laps in one breath recently, which is a great improvement, but ......" Doudou stroked his little chin and carefully looked at the little fat man who was red and panting, and said with some doubts: "You seem to be fatter than before, is it that the lotus leaf hawthorn tea has no effect?"

"Yuan'er, I didn't dare to fall in circles exactly as you commanded, and you didn't waste half a drop of tea every day! These are all things you have seen with your own eyes, so ......" The little fat man deliberately raised his voice, sounding very reasonable, but his eyes were a little evasive, and he clearly looked like a thief.

"So for lunch today, the girl will reward you with a bowl of laba porridge, no, add, sugar, and so. "Doudou can't see that there is a problem with the little fat man, but she is a "soft-hearted" girl, and she always has to let people drink a bowl of Laba porridge to meet the situation, right?

"Uh-huh. As soon as he heard that the fragrant laba porridge had its own share, the little fat man's eyes narrowed into a slit, but ...... If only I could put some sugar, even if it's a little bit.

Seeing the little fat man holding the porridge bowl and eating sweetly, Doudou's eyes rolled a few times and said, "Little fat brother, last time I went to your house for dinner, the stewed elbow with rock sugar made by the chef surnamed Cai was really delicious." ”

"Of course. The little fat man finished the last bite of porridge, wiped his mouth and said: "Chef Cai turned out to be the master of Baiweilou, my father spent a lot of effort to invite him to the house, what is the stewed elbow with rock sugar, he has more dishes in his hand, and I also ate a whole Huadiao chicken last night......" The little fat man looked at Doudou's slightly squinted eyes and knew that he had been tricked again.

"Wow, I'll just say why don't I see you lose weight, it turns out that you hide at home all day and eat secretly!" Doudou gritted his teeth and glared at the little fat man, bent his finger and knocked it heavily on his head, why is this guy so angry!

The little fat man covered his head and begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I don't dare to ...... anymore" But his brain was also very bright, and he quickly changed the topic and said: "Yuan'er, you haven't gone out during the Shangyuan Festival for the past two years, why don't we go out together again this year?"

Since the Shangyuan Festival was put on the table by Yuan Xiao that year, Doudou has almost no good impression of this festival, but this year is different, the three-year appointment has arrived, and she has to go to the appointment in order to fight for her breath, otherwise she will not be underestimated!

It would be a mistake for the little fat man to expect that he would be able to get away with it in this way, Doudou glanced at him, and snorted slightly: "The account of stealing food will be settled with you another day, but on that day, your father will not let you go home before the end of the day, right?" ”

"Absolutely not, my father has a big deal to talk about with those Westerners, and he will go to Quanzhou on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and he can't come back at all during the Shangyuan Festival, and my mother is now pregnant with her younger brother, and she doesn't care much about me. The little fat man swore and promised, but when he mentioned his mother and his soon-to-be-born brother, a trace of shallow loneliness quickly crossed his eyes, and it almost disappeared in a flash, and he didn't even notice the always sensitive Doudou.

"Let's go to the courtyard by the West Lake of your house, where the location is good, you can not only listen to a hundred operas, but also watch people put lights, which is very interesting." Doudou actually thought of the sentence on Yuan Xiao's note, "Beans meet on the shore of West Lake", which must refer to the Cheng family's other courtyard, but this is better not to tell Brother Sù Xiaofei.

"Yuan'er, should we invite those little sisters of yours again, there are many people together, and it is lively. "Doudou has also met several ladies in Hangzhou Mansion in recent years, not to mention how good the relationship is, but on weekdays, people are very enthusiastic about her, and they often get together to play, but the little fat man is very thoughtful for her.

"This is the Shangyuan Festival, maybe everyone has arrangements, and there is an opportunity to play together another day. Doudou's head hurts when she thinks of those delicate little girls, she still has big things to do here, wouldn't it be troublesome to take them with her. However, how could she let go of the opportunity to tease the little fat brother, she smiled evilly: "Or ...... Who of them would you like to play with?"

"Yuan'er!" the little fat man was ashamed and annoyed, turned his fat body and didn't want to take care of Doudou anymore, and walked towards the west wing by himself.

Doudou giggled non-stop, and shouted loudly in the direction where the little fat man left: "Then let's decide, I'll go directly to the other courtyard to wait for you when the time comes!"

※※※※

The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk.

The annual Shangyuan Festival has finally arrived again, Doudou has already greeted his mother in advance that he is going to the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, the mother and daughter have gotten along very well in recent years, Gu Chao naturally agreed, and even deliberately made a few beautiful dresses for her for the Shangyuan Festival, and picked out a few sets of exquisite jewelry.

Half a year ago, Yuan Hui sent a letter to Zhao's mother-in-law that was a little sick, Doudou felt that she was too old, and she didn't need anything to be a nurse, although Zhao's mother was reluctant to give up, she still sent two guards to send Zhao's mother back to the northwest after asking Yuan Zheng for instructions, and took out one hundred taels from the private silver as Cheng Yi, which was considered to have rounded the love between the two for nearly ten years.

After Zhao's mother left, the steward of Doudou Curie was replaced by Zhujun, who is now sixteen years old, which is the most useful age.

Originally, Doudou was young and had not yet grown up, plus these things were decided by Zhao's mother, and Zhujun and they were useless at all, today she saw that her wife sent such beautiful clothes and jewelry, and after dinner early, she discussed with Lan Yun how to dress up the girl with great interest.

Seeing a group of them gossiping together and talking about how to dress themselves, Doudou reluctantly walked to the wardrobe and took out a set of lake blue brocade robes worn by boys that had been prepared long ago and put them on, the boy's bun was very simple and couldn't bother her at all, and soon a handsome little boy with Yuxue Qingjun appeared in the big dressing mirror, and the second girl Yuan Er was very satisfied.

If you want to compete with Da Bai Tangyuan, you naturally can't dress up in a fancy way, but just changing men's clothes is definitely not enough, last time she found that the force value of the two is not at the same level at all, although she has never stopped practicing internal strength and boxing in the past three years, but people will definitely not stand still and wait for her to chase.

Therefore, the slingshot that her father made for her must be brought, which is conducive to long-range attacks and sneak attacks. Other than that...... Doudou chose the largest one among the bunch of purses, and filled a purse full of Mo Shenyi's exclusive secret secret medicine with no semicolon in the whole week.

Although some of the methods may not seem above board, they are necessary and appropriate to deal with a despicable villain like Da Bai Tangyuan.
