How can this be!

Gu Manman's face turned pale all of a sudden, "Father, I don't want to marry Zhou Mo, I don't want to marry that scoundrel! Father, you can't agree to this family business, father!"

How could she want someone who didn't even want Zhuo Qingmei? It's not that no one is married, she has to marry that ruffian!

Gu Yi was also shocked, he didn't expect this matter to develop like this, how could his father agree to such an unsuitable family matter?

He hurriedly said: "Father, did the Zhou family say something? The Zhou family has taken refuge in Prince An, will we marry them at this time?"

In the end, a man, even if he is still young, he knows how to start from other aspects, instead of being like Gu Manman, who will spill if he disagrees, which makes Ning Guogong feel a little comforted in his heart.

He said in a deep voice: "You are all older, some things will not be hidden from you, although the Zhou family has no background, and it is only three generations in western Sichuan, but the Zhou family is in the hands of the lifeblood of the entire western Sichuan, why the Zhuo family has married the Zhou family for generations, presumably it is also because of this reason, and the Ma family in southern Sichuan, the maiden home of the eldest lady of the Zhou family, this Ma family is rich, and it is very powerful in the southern Sichuan generation, this in-law is much better than the confused in-laws of the Liang family." ”

There is another thing he doesn't want to talk about, which is his daughter's reputation.

The daughter has a bad reputation in Yunfu City, not many families are willing to get married, and finally arrived in Yizhou City, no one knows about her, but she came to such a play again, so that Ning Guogong's original idea of living with strange goods was completely useless.

Ning Guogong had no choice but to marry her casually, and it was better to marry someone who had a title for generations than to marry a poor man.

What's more, the Zhou family is still the head snake here, Zhou Mo is very favored at home, presumably after Manman marries him, he will not be angry.

But how did Gu Manman know Ning Guogong's hard work, she only knew that she was going to be married to a ruffian by her father, her heart sank, and she cried regardless of it: "Let me marry Zhou Mo, this scoundrel, it is better to kill me with a knife!"

Ning Guogong has never been a good-natured person, and when he heard her say this, his anger suddenly rose, "You thing that doesn't know the height of the sky! Do you think I want to marry this one? It's not a good thing that you did on your own! What are you doing to provoke Zhou Mo? Do you think your own reputation is not bad enough? If you don't want to marry Zhou Mo, then who do you want to marry? What other good man is willing to marry you like a broken flower and a willow?"

Ning Guogong was furious, and his words were no matter how ugly he said.

Gu Manman's eyes widened, her fingers shrunk into her sleeves and trembled, how could her father scold her like this! If she didn't want to help her father deal with Prince An and Princess An, how could she offend the Zhuo family and the Zhou family in a row?

Gu Yi frowned as he listened to it, how could Manman stand his father's words!

He hurriedly played a round in the middle: "Manman, don't listen to your father's angry words, he is also anxious for you......"

Gu Manman couldn't stand it anymore, turned around and ran back to the room.

A Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but the chicken and dog jumped.

……

Yunfu City, in the splendid palace, has just finished the grandest dinner at the end of the year.

Emperor Wen drank a few more glasses of wine, his head was a little dizzy, and he was supported by Zhao Yuande all the way back along the floor tiles soaked in tung oil.

Zhao Yuande asked softly: "Which lady does the emperor want to go to rest?"

Normally, Emperor Wen will go to Chaofeng Palace during the New Year's Festival, but this year, isn't the queen mother already dead, so he will have this question.

"Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, there are still relatives who have not been reunited, and they are not going anywhere, you go to prepare the car." ”

Zhao Yuande was stunned for a moment, is this going to leave the palace? His heart jumped, but he didn't dare to refuse.

The emperor left the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve, or for the first time, since he secretly went out of the palace, naturally he would not alarm too many people.

The palace gate soon opened, and an inconspicuous but secretly luxurious carriage drove out of Chongxing Gate.

It wasn't until the four big characters "Prince An's Mansion" appeared in front of him that Zhao Yuande didn't know what Emperor Wen was going to do.

Carefully helping Emperor Wen out of the car, Zhao Yuande said softly: "Your Majesty, be careful of the steps." ”

There are many people who serve in Yuxiu Garden, although it was Prince An's mansion before, but he didn't cut people in a big way, so after taking it back, Emperor Wen kept it as it was, and it was not touched, and those people were still taking care of it.

The subordinates who served inside didn't know Emperor Wen's intentions, so they didn't dare to be lazy, and they tidied up the garden every day as neat and tidy as when Prince An lived.

Emperor Wen put it on Zhao Yuande's hand and slowly walked into Yuxiu Garden.

In fact, giving Yuxiu Garden to Chu Shaoyuan as a mansion was something he had planned for a long time, when Ruxue liked to visit Yuxiu Garden the most, when he was still Prince Rui, Ruxue especially liked the plum blossoms in Yuxiu Garden, and a few green calyxes could make Ruxue remember for a long time.

He walked slowly for a long time before he raised his eyes to look at Zhao Yuande: "Yishu's most permanent residence is not Yinxiang Courtyard, it's really painstaking......"

Then he suddenly remembered that when he lived in Yuxiu Garden, the plum blossoms had bloomed early, and even if he lived, he could only live for a few days, shook his head, and said, "Go to the Hidden Fragrance Courtyard." ”

Zhao Yuande was busy supporting Emperor Wen and walked slowly step by step.

When he arrived at the Hidden Fragrance Courtyard, Emperor Wen stood in front of the green calyx plums, and did not say a word for a long time, with thousands of thoughts in his heart.

The winter is cold, especially in the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Yunfu has just snowed, and there is snow on the green calyx plum blossoms, and the plum blossoms are crushed low one by one.

Zhao Yuande was afraid that Emperor Wen would freeze, so he persuaded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the hour is not early, do you want to rest for a while?"

Emperor Wen looked at it in a daze for a long time before he looked sideways at Zhao Yuande.

"I remember that you entered the palace twenty years ago, right?"

Zhao Yuande was stunned for a moment, nodded and responded: "The emperor has a good memory, the slave is the palace that Zhaoming entered in the twenty-sixth year, and he met the emperor as soon as he entered the palace." ”

Emperor Wen nodded and said, "I remember that the chief eunuch was still Li Chenghai at that time. ”

Zhao Yuande thought of the unsmiling chief eunuch, and there was not much resentment in his heart, obviously he wanted to peel his skin back then. Maybe it's because his end is not so good, so he will let the evil breath in his heart dissipate.

Zhao Yuande shook his head lightly and said with a smile: "The name of the slave back then was still preserved by the emperor. ”

Emperor Wen tried hard to recall, and then remembered that there seemed to be such a thing, his prince's position has been unstable, and that day happened to be in a bad mood, and he was meeting the newly recruited little eunuchs in the palace who were counted down by the old eunuchs, and there happened to be a Zhao Yuande among them.

In the palace, where can the minions use Yuan as their names? Naturally, they have to be changed.

But Emperor Wen reprimanded the old eunuch with a twisted temperament, and kept Zhao Yuande's name, and Zhao Yuande has been by his side since then.

He is unlucky in the end, even if he says that he is an emperor, he can't get what he really wants.

Emperor Wen raised his hand: "Go to Xiaoshan Residence, stay here today, and don't go back to the palace." ”

Emperor Wen has always said that he is the same, Zhao Yuande, as a subordinate who serves closely, how dare he refuse him, so he has to put everything in order.

The small mountain house is still the same as the one that Chanyi had been sorted out before, the flowers and trees are all there, but the season is not right, all of them are sad, and they look a little desolate.

Emperor Wen lay on the warm collapse and closed his eyes and fell asleep, as if he could still hear the woman's delicate voice in his ears, he smiled softly in his dream, and slept deeply.

……

The fireworks were bursting in the sky, and after dinner, Chanyi and Chu Shaoyuan took Yan Dai and Mrs. Yan out to set off the fireworks.

During the New Year's Festival, Chanyi is always tolerant of the family, and it is rare to have a happy moment, and the maids and women also gather around them to watch the fireworks at this time.

There was a lot of laughter in my ears.

Chanyi's hand was held tightly by Chu Shaoyuan all the time, and the smile on her face was about to overflow, sweet and greasy.

Chu Shaoyuan lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Wanwan, do you remember the habit of watching fireworks in the warm pavilion in our family every year?"

This is the habit of Chanyi at home every year since she remembers, whether it is in the previous life or this life, it has not changed, she naturally remembers.

"I don't know, on Chinese New Year's Eve in those years, the things I sent you were all picky, and I chose for a long time before I dared to send you, every time I sent you something, I had to send it with Sister Xian'er, but no matter what I sent you, you didn't like it very much, just said thank you lightly, and it was gone, and I didn't even give me a return gift." ”

Even if there is a return gift, it is very perfunctory, either a silk thread or a sachet, and it will definitely not be made by her own hands.

Thinking of this, Chu Shaoyuan felt a little aggrieved in his heart.

Chanyi looked up at him, and easily saw what he was thinking at the moment from the look on his face, and couldn't help laughing, since he was a child, he didn't like this person who suddenly appeared and shared his father's favor, how could she give him a good look?

It's just that I didn't expect him to mind for so long.

Holding his hand tightly, she said softly: "Didn't you say that you won't mention the previous things, how can you talk about it again?"

Chu Shaoyuan snorted: "I'm not happy!"

Like a child.

Chanyi thought to herself, his little temper came up, and it was not good to coax, what a child.

"How about I stay with you that night?"

Chu Shaoyuan was willing to let her spend the night without sleeping with him, although there would be such a thing as keeping the New Year every year, but she was always sleepy after three watches, and was carried back to the yard by Xia Mingchen, and she would not really keep the New Year until dawn at all.

When I think about it, I feel a little jealous, Xia Mingchen has always protected her, she will only tell Xia Mingchen about anything, even Xia Mingche can't compare to her brother-sister friendship with Xia Mingchen, let alone him.

The fireworks bloomed in large blooms overhead, and Chu Shaoyuan looked angry again, Chan Yi smiled and bent his eyes, took out the jade Jue that had been prepared in his sleeve pocket, and stuffed it into his hand.

"Anyway, I will accompany you every year to keep the New Year, no matter where you are, if you keep getting angry, you won't see such beautiful fireworks. ”

Chu Shaoyuan's eyes lit up, and he squeezed the jade jue in his hand tightly.

Although it was the middle of winter, his heart was like a spring breeze in March.
