Chapter 66: A Year of Harvest
Looking at the incense that was talking eloquently under the lamp, and thinking about Lu Jiu, who might have been acting in front of him all the time, Doudou couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
She never thought she was a fool, and a talented man like her father had praised her for being smart and clever more than once.
But she looked away at the people around her again and again, isn't this stupid?
Xiangxiang poured a cup of hot water for Doudou and said, "Little princess, in fact, if you really want to see Miss Lu Jiu clearly, it is not difficult. ”
Doudou took the cup and covered his hands: "It's not difficult, but I don't want to." ”
Xiangxiang smiled: "Then forget it." ”
The best option at the moment is indeed to forget it.
As long as they really checked, no matter whether Miss Lu Jiu had a problem or not, the little princess's heart would not be happy.
Doudou took a sip of water and said with a smile: "Don't think about that, talking is Layue, a few days ago, the village leaders said that they were coming to give me a New Year's gift, and I calculated that the day should almost come."
It's just near the capital, those outside Beijing have to be entertained, it's not easy for people to brave the cold to run such a trip, the Zhuangzi I married plus Huo Xiao's hand, there are dozens of them in total. ”
Descendant took the cup and said, "Then you should go to sleep quickly." ”
Doudou lay back on the bed: "Well, I have to go to sleep quickly, and after receiving the New Year's gift, I have to prepare to send it to others, especially the master and my mother, Shunqing Mansion and Liaodong are far away from the capital, and we should set off when we almost pack up, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the New Year." ”
Xiangxiang smiled: "If you think about it again, you really don't have to sleep." ”
Doudou glanced at her: "Am I really too good to talk, no matter how big or small the people around me are, no one is afraid of me!"
She smiled and put out the palace lamp at the head of the bed, put down the tent again, and walked out of the inner room with the lamp just now.
As Doudou expected, from the second day, there were several village heads to give New Year's gifts.
In previous years, the head of the village from other places did not necessarily go to Beijing in person, and most of them would prepare the New Year's gift and let their sons or cronies go on this trip.
This year's situation is completely different, whether it is Doudou's marriage or those in Huo Xiao's hands, from now on, their whole family will have to work under the hands of the new master, and the head of the village will have to run this trip in person no matter what.
Doudou cheered up and met the village leaders in person.
She is very glad that she is not the kind of noble girl who has been raised in the boudoir since she was a child, although she has not farmed the field herself, she is not diligent and does not divide the grains, and she will not speak layman's words in front of the villagers.
The dowry Zhuangzi given by the Pei family to Doudou are the most fertile and productive in the land, and the grange under Huo Xiao's name was personally rewarded by the first emperor, and they are all imperial villages.
The things sent by the bankers are everything.
All kinds of grains, all kinds of dried fruits and nuts, delicacies from the mountains and seas, dried vegetables and fresh vegetables, preserved fish and bacon, live chickens and live ducks, and all kinds of prey caught near Zhuangzi, people are dazzled.
In addition to these foods, there are also various types of charcoal, local ceremonies, because of the young princess, the head of the village also specially selected some fresh gadgets to give her to enjoy.
In addition, there is the rent of each Zhuangzi and the cash in exchange for the harvest.
This year, the Great Zhou Dynasty has a good wind and rain, and almost all the Zhuangzi everywhere are bumper harvests.
The larger Zhuangzi have tens of thousands of taels, and the smaller ones have four or five thousand, which adds up to a very considerable income.
Of course, Doudou did not hesitate to praise and reward these village heads, and rewarded them like a thick red seal of flowing water.
The heads of the village have both benefits and face, and they are all rushing to embark on the journey home.
After they left, Doudou took the calligraphy, ink, inkstones, and maids and began to prepare for the New Year's gifts to be sent to the prefectures.
It was busy until the fourth day of the lunar month, and these things were properly arranged.
can say that he wants to come back and eat the laba porridge cooked by Doudou, but Huo Xiaowangye has no intention of going back to the house at all.
Doudou was a little depressed and a little worried.
Is the bad guy blocked in the mountains by the heavy snow, and he hasn't come back for so long, and if he doesn't come back, it's just that, and he won't send a letter to others!
After half a month, I don't know if he eats well or not, and if anyone reminds him to add clothes......
For several days, Doudou couldn't sleep well.
After lunch on the seventh day of the lunar month, Doudou came to the small kitchen with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
Mother Nie had already arranged for the mother-in-law to prepare all the ingredients for boiling the porridge, and it could be seen that the little princess was lying there picking beans and dried fruits one by one, and she still didn't dare to squeak.
After picking the beans and dried fruits, the depression in Doudou's heart dissipated a lot, and he also made some snacks and snacks with great interest.
After dinner, Doudou was sleepy, and soon fell into a deep sleep after changing the insomnia of these days.
Of course, her sleeping position showed no signs of improving.
I don't know how long later, someone lit the palace lamp at the head of the bed and gently lifted the low curtain.
A muffled laugh rang out, and a slender figure sat on the edge of the bed.
The palace lantern swayed with the laughter, and Huo Xiao's handsome face rippled with a beautiful smile.
He stretched out his slender hand with distinct bones and gently lifted the brocade quilt on Doudou's body.
The inner room was as warm as spring, and Doudou did not cover the thick quilt and did not wear that thick bedclothes.
The light silk bedgown was almost translucent in the light, and you could clearly see the string of the big red belly pocket, as well as her ice muscle and jade skin.
Huo Xiao only felt hot and tense all over his body.
Feeling a little cool, Doudou moved his little fart slightly, and arched under the pillow again.
Huo Xiao took off his coat and lay down gently on Doudou's side.
"Little lentil, when will you learn to throw yourself into your arms and take the initiative to sleep in my arms?" Huo Xiao's tone was full of regret.
Doudou seemed to be woken up, and hummed twice very cooperatively.
Huo Xiao reached out and uncovered the pillow and threw it directly at the end of the bed.
Without the pillow, Doudou was very unaccustomed to it, and his slender arm swiped a few times in the air.
"Hmm...... How did the pillow get hard......" Her hand touched Huo Xiao's shoulder, and she muttered a few words.
Huo Xiao pursed his lips, a little speechless.
He was about to stretch out his hand, but Doudou reached out and pushed him first, and a small head was directly pierced under his shoulder.
Huo Xiao couldn't speak anymore, he really used this lentil as a pillow!
He lifted her little head and took her straight into his arms.
Doudou frowned and snorted twice more very uncomfortably.
Huo Xiao couldn't cry or laugh a little, and put her thin lips in her ear and said: "This little king is already very tired from running thousands of miles, I originally wanted to accompany you for another tiring night tonight, but now it seems that you are more tired than me, and it is probably not good." ”
His warm breath fell on the soft skin on the side of Doudou's ear, and Doudou woke up with a spirit.
She opened her eyes and looked, only to see Huo Xiao with a familiar and lazy smile on his face.
"You...... When are you coming back?" she turned over and lay on Huo Xiao's body.
"So excited? Looks like you're really missing me. Huo Xiao said.
Doudou moved up: "I just miss you, what's wrong!"
