With a slam of his leg, Chu Shaoyuan suddenly woke up from his dream, and now the weather was obviously autumn, but his body was wet with heavy cold sweat.

He didn't know why he dreamed of this kind of dream that made his soul fly away again and again, he felt faintly uneasy in his heart, he wanted to go back to see the evening photo immediately, he wanted to touch her cheek, and told her that he really loved her, and he didn't want her to be angry, and he didn't want to see her sad, but the matter in Fujian was imminent, and he had no skills to continue to lie back in bed.

Looking out of the window, the moonlight poured out from the cracks in the window lattice, he couldn't help but think, he was not at home and didn't know if he was bored alone at night, whether he would be afraid, he was in too much hurry, he didn't have time to arrange anything, and his aunt didn't know how, he always knew his aunt's temperament, and he would not admit defeat so easily, especially after suffering such a big loss, fortunately, he told Mama Zhao to only be responsible for her safety, and did not let Mama Zhao obey her aunt's arrangement, otherwise which one of the Xia family's inner houses was Mama Zhao's opponent？

He sighed faintly, closed his eyes again, and found that he was not sleepy, and couldn't help but think of his dream again, everything in the dream is such a reality, could it be that such a thing will really happen in the future? But it doesn't make sense at all, he is already married to Wan Zhao, how can he allow Wan Zhao to leave him, let alone Wan Zhao finally became someone else's wife, this dream is simply impossible.

He shook his head, and decided in his heart that he would be better for Wanzhao in the future, so that she would not regret marrying him, and then she would not think about others.

……

Although Chanyi didn't sleep very peacefully at night, she always woke up when she turned over, but fortunately, she slept until dawn in a daze, and when she opened her eyes, she found that it had rained all night, and even the water level in Bihu Lake had risen a lot.

She yawned while sitting and letting Jinping help her comb her hair, but her eyes were looking at the direction of Bihu, but she was in a trance, there have been so many changes in this life, even Bihu has become her own house, really, it was not very easy to come to Yuxiu Garden in the previous life, and in this life, she actually lived here, looking at the spring and autumn fruits of Yuxiu Garden, full of gardens.

Jinping helped her comb her fallen ponytail, inserted the yarn flower and the golden hairpin obliquely into the cloud temples, and looked left and right before she took her hand satisfied, "It's your birthday in a few days, are we going to set up a banquet in the mansion?"

Jinping is now in charge of the big kitchen in the house, and if there is a banquet or something, he always has to ask Chanyi about the meaning of the first thing before arranging it.

Chanyi smiled and shook her head: "It's not a big age, it's just a thirteenth birthday, it doesn't matter, just invite my grandmother, mother and two cousins from my grandmother's family to come and get together." ”

Jinping nodded, even so, she still carefully prepared two or three tables of wine and food for emergencies.

On the third day of the eighth lunar month, Mrs. Xia and Xie had breakfast and came, Chanyi hurriedly went out to welcome Mrs. Xia and Xie in, with a smile on her face.

"Grandmother, mother, why are you here so early. ”

Old Madam Xia glanced at her with a smile, "You child, the first time you don't celebrate your birthday at home, your mother misses you in her heart, and she whispers in my ear early in the morning, isn't it early to come." ”

Xie smiled softly on the side, her mother-in-law has always been not good at expressing her love for her juniors, and this time she also saw that her mother-in-law was worried on the side, so she simply said to come over earlier.

Chanyi sat down with Mrs. Xia and the Xie family, and Mrs. Xia couldn't help but think of some of the things she had heard before, and couldn't help asking, "Why was the prince left in the palace by the emperor? But what happened?"

Mrs. Xia has been listening to her son in her ears these days, it seems that something happened in the palace, so the prince was left in the palace, and the son repeatedly worried that it was not the prince who did something to anger the emperor, so that the emperor was put under house arrest, but the son said that he saw his granddaughter in the palace that day, although she was not as worried as her son, but she always had to ask to feel at ease when she saw Chanyi.

Chanyi smiled and looked at Mrs. Xia: "Grandmother, don't worry, I went to the palace that day, and I heard my husband say that it was because the emperor's health was not very good, so I left him in the palace, saying that I could help deal with some affairs." ”

Chanyi didn't tell Chu Shaoyuan what she told her, because Mrs. Xia would never hide her father from her in political affairs, and her father was such a person, especially knew how to seek good fortune and avoid evil, if it was because of him, she was afraid that Chu Shaoyuan's arrival in Fujian would be more dangerous, so she didn't say it.

Mrs. Xia just wanted peace of mind, and when she heard her say this, she nodded: "That being said, you are a wife after all, and you often go into the palace to see the prince and the emperor, and do your filial piety as a daughter-in-law." ”

Chanyi sighed in her heart, even if she is a daughter-in-law, but the emperor is the Son of Heaven after all, she often comes up, but she is afraid that she will be said to be speculative, and she will be hostile to other princes, sometimes it is better to have more than one thing, but in front of her grandmother, she is not really good at saying this, so she has to nod her head.

Xie Shi knew her daughter's thoughts, she smiled and said: "Where is the affairs of the heavenly family like ordinary people, just have a clear conscience, in a few days it will be the marriage of the Marquis of Dingguo, Dingguo Marquis asked your eldest brother to be the greeting master when he was young, your eldest brother has been busy these days, and he has no time to come today, let his mother give you a birthday gift, you can see if you like it." ”

She asked Mama Su to take out the gift that Xia Mingchen asked her to hand over to Chan Yi yesterday, Chan Yi opened it and saw that it was a hairpin carved into the shape of a lotus flower with gentleman's wood, the lotus flower on the hairpin was very good-looking, and the hairpin tail was also engraved with the words "Give my sister an evening photo", although it is not a valuable thing, but it is better than the novel style, which makes people can't help but love it in their hands.

Chanyi said with a smile: "It's made by the eldest brother himself, since he accidentally broke a hairpin for me the year before last, he will send one to me every year after that, I didn't expect him to make it himself this year." ”

Xie touched her hair lovingly, "Your second brother didn't come back when you got married, and when your second brother's fortifications in Fujian are completed, he will return to Yunfu just in time for your eldest brother's wedding." ”

Chanyi was stunned, and hurriedly pulled Xie Shi's sleeve, "Mother, has the wedding date of the eldest brother been set?"

Xie Shi said with a smile: "It's set, it's set on October 25, counting the days, your second brother's fortifications in Fujian are almost the same." ”

Chanyi felt very happy, two months may not be how majestic the river embankment will be repaired, but it can be more or less a look, when the eldest brother marries and then the second brother, the two brothers can have their own home, and they are no longer as depressed as in the previous life, she feels that this life is not in vain.

It's just that she suddenly thought of the Zhu family in her mind, and asked again: "Then Cousin Shuangyun really got married to the second cousin of the Zhu family? Didn't Cousin Pianyun go back to Huguang? How could Sister Fei's marriage with her eldest brother be set on a date?"

Although her question was a little confusing, Xie understood what she wanted to ask, and stroked her hair with a smile.

"Brother Pian's marriage, your grandmother said that she had her own arrangements, and several sisters in the family are not young, so she can't delay it because he is alone, so let Sister Fei go out of the cabinet first, it's nothing. ”

This is the truth, after all, when people are in office, they can't come back to Yunfu at will, and men's marriages are not as good as women's, so it's nothing to delay.

Chanyi ordered someone to bring tea up, and talked to the Xie family and Mrs. Xia for a while, and several aunts and cousins of the Xie family also arrived.

When it was noon, Chanyi was the highest status and wanted to sit on the seat, but she was a little reluctant and said: "I am a junior, although today is my birthday, but I still want my grandmother and mother to be on the seat." As he spoke, he sat down next to Xie Feiyun without hesitation at all.

It made the people in the room laugh.

The banquet was lively, and the seats were not outsiders, but they were even more harmonious.

Chanyi treated Xie Feiyun even more affectionately, and from time to time put all the good dishes made in the house in front of her, with a respect for her sister-in-law, which caused Xie Shuangyun on the side to pay attention to it and ignore it.

Xie Feiyun blushed, looked at her and whispered: "You are more restrained, today is your birthday, and it is not mine, but I gave you a pair of pearl earrings, and you are so courteous." ”

deliberately tilted her head on the birthday gift, also because she was ashamed.

Chanyi smiled and nudged her arm: "Don't be ashamed, although my eldest brother says that he practices martial arts, he is a very good person, and the two of them will be good in the future," he said and asked, "Dingguo Marquis is married, will you go with your eldest aunt at that time?"

Xie Feiyun thought for a while and said: "I should go, we can't say that we will form a family with the Dingguo Mansion, and there will be one more layer in the future, and there will be no shortage of back and forth." ”

Chanyi said: "That relationship is good, you know, the prince is in the palace these days, and he may not be free, I think maybe I will be alone then, and the ladies and wives on the table are always revolving around me because of my identity, I am so annoyed, with you, we just went to the courtyard of the Dingguo Mansion with Sister Lin to avoid those big-headed flies that can only buzz." ”

Xie Feiyun couldn't help laughing, don't say it, Chanyi's words are really quite vivid, she hasn't seen that formation, once Chanyi is there, it will not be too calm, a room of guests can sit still except for those old feudal monarchs, and the other wives and grandmothers, seeing Chanyi is like seeing meat, they can't help but come up to smell it, it's annoying to be entangled for a long time.

Therefore, Chanyi has rarely attended any banquets since she got married, firstly because of her identity, and secondly, because she doesn't like the entanglement of those people at the banquet.

Just when Prince An's Mansion was bustling, Chu Shaoyuan finally arrived in Quanzhou, Fujian.

He raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Yunfu, pursed his lips, I don't know how Wanzhao spent his birthday today, he is usually by his side on his birthday, and I don't know if she misses herself in the past few days.

He hastened to the guard, thinking to himself that when this was over, he would have to make up an excellent birthday gift for her.
