Chapter 168: Another Encounter
Doudou went home to change his clothes and hurried to Chunhui Hall. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although it is already the ninth day of the first month, according to the custom of the Great Zhou, the year has not yet ended, and even Yuan Zheng has to accompany the old lady to eat with him every day.
When Doudou walked into the main house, sure enough, Yuan Zheng's father and daughter were laughing with the old lady, and Gu Chao was also there, but all her thoughts were on her two sons.
She walked over and saluted the old lady and Yuan Zheng, and Yuan Xiang took her hand and sat beside her.
The old lady smiled and said, "Where did Sister Yuan go to play today?"
Doudou said: "I heard that this year's Shangyuan Festival will be very lively, I'll go out and see ...... first"
"Second sisterβ"
Before she could finish speaking, the two brothers Yuanjing and Yuanwei had already rushed to her side on their short legs, and climbed up along Doudou's legs like two little monkeys.
The two little ones were very nimble, and they rode all their legs on her thighs, and the two little heads were plunged into her arms.
is really worthy of being twin brothers, both in action and shouting.
The two little guys are only two years and a few months old, and their flesh and porcelain are very solid, and they are heavy to hold.
Doudou felt that his two little thin legs were about to be bent.
Seeing her grinning, the old lady hurriedly beckoned the two nurses to hug Yuanjing Yuanwei from Doudou.
The two little ones were not noisy or noisy, and were soon attracted to play by the gadgets in the hands of the maids.
Yuan Zheng twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has already issued a holy decree this year, and all state capitals will send lanterns to the capital. β
Doudou responded: "Exactly, I saw that many shops have begun to hang lanterns in front of them, although the most delicate ones have not yet been hung out, but they are already very beautiful." β
Gu Chao rarely didn't continue to have a cold face, and also interjected with a smile: "There was also a time in the Xuande period, when I was only eleven or twelve years old, and I played on the street with a large group of little sisters until late at night, and it was indeed very lively. β
It was one of her fondest memories, and even after 20 years, it still stands out.
Seeing that she was not as out of place as usual, the old lady's heart was much brighter, and she pulled her two granddaughters and said with a smile: "Today is the ninth day of the new year, and there are not a few days before the fifteenth, you sisters and sons should also prepare well, and it is good to ask the little sisters to go out to play, and it is good to relax." β
It's probably because he often goes out of the house now, and Doudou doesn't show how excited he is, and Yuan Xiang is completely different.
Since the matter between her and Gongsun Mo was learned by the family, although the family did not forcibly prevent her from leaving the house, she knew in her heart that the elders were very dissatisfied with the fact that she and others had made a private agreement for life.
So recently, in addition to going out with the elders to pay New Year's greetings, she honestly stays at home every day to accompany her grandmother, and she doesn't dare to run out like her sister.
Even the day before his fourteenth birthday, he secretly went out to see Gongsun Mo, and he still feels a little weak when he thinks about it.
At this moment, when she heard her grandmother take the initiative to let them go out to play, she thought about it.
Her favorite friend is Xintang, but Yuan'er and Xintang don't seem to get along.
Should she go out with Yuan'er and then find a chance to meet Ah Mo, or should she give Xintang a post and go to enjoy the lanterns with her?
Compared with Xintang, Yuan'er prefers to be with her sister.
But she also knows that paper can't hold the fire, and it is inevitable that her mother will know when she meets Amo, and her mother will probably not do anything to her at that time, but she will vent her anger on Yuan'er.
That result is the last thing she wants to see, although Yuan'er doesn't say anything, she is still happy all day long, but she knows that she must be very sad in her heart.
So it's better to go to Xintang to enjoy the lanterns together, and find an excuse to leave early, can't you go to see Amo?
Shangyuan Festival is also a festival for lovers anyway, although it is quite enjoyable to be with the little sisters, but those who belong to the heart must be looking forward to spending it with their sweetheart.
She glanced at Gu Chao slightly, and saw that her mother did not veto her grandmother's suggestion, so she smiled and said, "Then I will go back to Shuhe and give a post to the county lord later, and ask her to enjoy the lanterns together." β
After dinner, Yuan Xiang pulled Doudou back to Lanyue Pavilion.
"Yuan'er, you're not angry with your sister, are you?" Although he knew that his sister was not a calculating person, Yuan Xiang couldn't help but ask.
How could Doudou not know what Yuan Xiang was thinking, and said with a smile: "Our sisters are together every day, how can we care about a Shangyuan Festival?"
Yuan Xiangxiao's face flushed, and he was a little embarrassed to hide something from his sister.
Doudou sighed and leaned into Yuan Xiang's ear and said: "It's just that you must be careful, don't let others know about the meeting with Gongsun Mo, even if it's crisp candy, it's indispensable to guard against people." β
Yuan Xiang's face turned even redder, and sure enough, his sister was much smarter than himself, and he was only ......
She nodded, "I know." β
Doudou smiled: "My sister likes crispy candy, but I love Xiaoyanzi the most, and I'm going to go back to give her a post." β
Yuan Xiang quipped: "It turns out that my sister wants to date Cousin Fu in the name of Miss Sun, don't worry, I will never expose you in front of my grandmother." β
Doudou glanced at Yuan Xiang: "you, I'm leaving." β
As he spoke, he left Lanyue Pavilion without looking back.

When the fifteenth day of the first lunar month arrived, Yuan Xiang and Doudou had dinner early, went back to the house to dress up carefully, and went out of the Jingnan Hou Mansion together.
After leaving the house, the sisters looked at each other and smiled, and then parted ways.
Yuan Xiang only brought Rushuang and Ruxue with him, and took a carriage to the place he had already made an appointment with Su Lin.
Doudou brought a large group of maids, picking green and mulberry, smiling and fragrant, willow leaves and wheat ears, and none of the famous names in the Bangxing Pavilion were left behind.
Because of the large number of people, she thought that her carriage was too narrow, so she borrowed the old lady's wide and luxurious four-wheeled carriage, and a group of little girls got together and had a surplus, but the chatter along the way was very lively.
Even Wu Jingui, who was driving the car in front, always had a smile on his face, every time he went out with the second girl, he was always happy, and even he, a man in his twenties, seemed to have returned to his youth.
Fu Chengxiang's official position is not high, although the mansion is also in the east of the city, the location is much more remote than the Jingnan Hou Mansion.
When Doudou and his party came to the door of Fu's mansion, it was already dark.
As soon as their carriage stopped, Fu Shaoyun and Sun Yan, brother and sister, with Chongjiu and a little maid, happily greeted them.
Although he had been prepared for Sun Yan to meet Fu Shaoyun together, seeing him on such a day, Doudou inevitably felt a little weak-hearted.
Celebrate the Yuan Festival with Cousin Fu and enjoy the lanterns together, if a careful-eyed big white rice ball knows, the consequences will be unimaginable...... (To be continued.) )
