Li Xiaonuan sighed secretly, the whole room, everywhere in sight, was full of red and red pictures of Baizi.

Li Xiaonuan squinted her eyes slightly, looking at the flower stands scattered in the four corners of the room, the high table, the lampstand, the floor vase, the calligraphy and paintings of the former dynasty hanging on the wall, etc., trying to soothe the dazzling red.

Ice basins were set up in the corners of the room, and the wind blew in through the windows, blowing the cool air throughout the room. Li Xiaonuan took a breath comfortably, no wonder this room was so cool and comfortable, after taking a bath, this sweat never came out again.

Zhu Qing took a big red pomegranate skirt and a wide-sleeved waist-cinching shirt with a red background full of embroidered pomegranate blooms, Li Xiaonuan turned his head to look at the red Baizi picture shirt again, pouted and frowned, Lan Chu stepped forward, took the skirt in Zhu Qing's hand, shook it open and looked at it, and said with a smile:

"This big red dress, the girl needs to wear it for a few days."

"I can't call her a girl."

Mama Sun carefully inspected all parts of the new house, and corrected with a smile, Zhuqing turned her head, looked at Mama Sun and asked with a smile:

"What's that called? I haven't sealed it yet."

"Call the young grandmother first, and when you have the seal, you will be the young lady."

The celebrant standing next to her replied with a smile.

Several people laughed and gossiped, and the jade buckle quickly dried his hair, left a strand of hair out, loosely tied a bun, picked a red gold inlaid ruby flower and rich hairpin, and carefully inserted Li Xiaonuan into the bun.

Soup and snacks had already been sent in outside, Li Xiaonuan got up and put on her dress, turned out of the warm pavilion, and entered the west wing.

In the wing, there is also a red pomegranate blooming hundred seeds, in this courtyard, there are about no other tricks except for the hundred sons playing spring and the pomegranate blooming hundred seeds.

On the couch, there are a few light side dishes, a bowl of sour bamboo shoots and duck soup, and a small bowl of japonica rice porridge.

Li Xiaonuan sat on the couch and was about to eat, when a crisp voice came from outside:

"Did the young grandmother eat?"

"Not yet, I'm about to eat it."

The mother-in-law waiting at the door hurriedly replied with great hospitality, Li Xiaonuan turned her head to look at the door, the door curtain was lifted, a red and a green two girls dressed in a very rich and delicate dress, one after the other entered the house, the girl who walked in front of her was wearing a big red narrow-sleeved shirt, a duck green pleated skirt, her spirit was flying, and she looked very cool, and the girl at the back was wearing a green shirt, a light blue eight-panel skirt, her face was delicate and beautiful, and her expression was extremely soft, both of them were sixteen or seventeen years old.

The two smiled and bowed, the green-shirted girl turned around and took the suitcase in her mother-in-law's hand, the red-shirted girl looked at Li Xiaonuan carefully, and exclaimed:

"Young grandma is really good-looking"

The girl in the green shirt gently pushed the girl in the red shirt, held up the suitcase and signaled to her, the girl in the red shirt hurriedly opened the suitcase, carefully took out a bowl of black soup, and brought it to the table in front of Li Xiaonuan, and said with a smile:

"Young grandma, this is the Baizi soup that the princess personally watched people boil, and it is still hot, so young grandma should drink it while it is hot."

Li Xiaonuan lowered her eyes, glanced at the decoction, a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, paused, with a shy smile on her face, turned her head to look at the two girls, and asked gently:

"Who are the two sisters?"

The mother-in-law waiting next to her hurriedly replied:

"Young grandma doesn't know it yet, this is the big girl next to the princess, the one in green is the spring grass girl, and the one in the red is the summer lotus girl."

Li Xiaonuan straightened up slightly, and was about to stay, Chuncao took two steps forward, bent his knees and saluted, and said respectfully:

"Young grandma, please sit down, this medicine is the secret recipe in the house, the most beneficial heir, the princess personally watched people boil, young grandma drink it while it's hot."

Li Xiaonuan smiled and nodded, turned her head, and glanced at Grandma Sun, who was accompanied by a smile on her face, stepped forward and bent her knees, and said politely:

"The two girls are fine, I am the young grandmother's roommate."

Chuncao and Xia He turned their heads, looking at Grandma Sun with some surprise, not knowing what she was going to do, Grandma Sun took two steps forward with a smile, walked to the two of them, and the voice was low but clearly reached the ears of the girls and mothers-in-law standing in the room.

"Two girls, a few days ago, our second aunt and grandmother personally sent the secret recipe of Mashiko, this recipe was originally used by our eldest aunt and grandmother, and it was given to the second aunt and grandmother, and the second aunt and grandmother ate it well, and then gave it to the young grandmother, and it has been taken for two days, and the girl also knows that this medicine is the most taboo to be used together, and the girl sees it...... This one? ”

Chuncao and Xia He were stunned for a while, and Grandma Sun was full of smiles, and then said:

"Why don't the two girls go back and ask the princess for a show? After all, it's a big deal."

Chuncao and Xia He looked at each other for a moment, Chuncao turned her head to look at Grandma Sun, and said with a smile:

"What Mama said is that this is a big deal, Xia He and I will go to the princess."

Zhu Qing hurriedly took two steps forward, diligently picked up the medicine bowl, put it back in the suitcase, and gave the suitcase to Chuncao.

Chuncao took the box, bent his knees with Xia He, and retreated.

Li Xiaonuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his chopsticks, ate half a bowl of porridge, and drank a small half bowl of duck soup, feeling that people were refreshed and much more comfortable.

Cheng Ke strode out of Qinglian Courtyard all the way, and a few small people such as Yuanshan had already stretched their necks and waited outside the courtyard gate, followed Cheng Ke, and went all the way to the front yard.

In front of the flower hall in the second gate of the Runan Palace, it is the place where the female guests sit, and in front of the main hall outside the second gate and the main hall full of wedding sheds, it is the noisy banquet place for the male guests.

Greeted smoothly, and then Cheng Ke led him to the main hall, in the middle of the two tables, it was the king of Runan who accompanied a few old princes and several elders of the family to sit, Cheng Ke came in, respectfully saluted, toasted, received some lessons, and then quit and went to the east wing.

In the east wing, with the second prince Xin Wang Zhou Jingxin as the respect, the third prince Min Wang Zhou Jingmin smiled humbly and gently, sat on Zhou Jingxin's left hand side, Zhou Jingran sat on the right hand side, and was talking with Jingjiang Hou Shizi and Cheng Ke's eldest brother-in-law Di Yuanjian, who was sitting under him with a spring breeze, and when he saw Cheng Ke come in, Zhou Jingran stood up, pointed at him with a fan and smiled:

"You still know it? I'm going to have to pour you a few more cups today......"

Di Yuanjian hurriedly stood up, smiled and pulled Zhou Jingran,

"King Jing's subordinates are merciful, Brother Ke still has big things"

The table burst into laughter, Cheng Ke stepped forward to pour wine with a smile on his face, ignored Zhou Jingran, and raised his glass to Zhou Jingxin first.

"Believe in the prince, Jing Wangye hasn't drunk too much wine, the drunken madness came up first, you can hold him more"

Zhou Jingxin shook his head with a smile,

"I can't control this, today is your big day, just drink a few more glasses."

Lu Minghui, the eldest son of Lu Wenlong, the secretary of the Ministry and the second brother-in-law of Cheng Ke, followed, stepped forward to block in front of Cheng Ke, exaggeratedly waved his two hands, and said with a smile:

"It's unacceptable, my eldest brother-in-law and I have both received a mission today, no matter what, we can't let Xiao Ke drink too much and delay the flower candles in the cave room, but it's amazing."

Zhou Jingmin smiled and blocked Cheng Ke's toast, and said gently:

"Your heart, the third brother has received it, don't drink too much, the most important thing about the candles in your cave room."

Cheng Ke hurriedly put down the wine glass and thanked him for a long time:

"It's still the third brother who loves me the most, Xiao Ke thanked me, don't pass"

As he spoke, he turned around and ran out, a room full of people laughed and shouted, Zhou Jingran jumped to his feet,

"The third brother did a good job"

As he spoke, he jumped up and chased him out while shouting,

"Wait, and my wine."

Zhou Jingran chased Cheng Ke into the wing room in the west.

In the west wing, Tang Muxian sat with him, turned his head and saw Cheng Ke coming in, and immediately jumped up, pulled him and shouted:

"But when you come, come, come, drink three glasses first, you promised me"

Zhou Jingran followed closely behind Cheng Ke, crossed Cheng Ke, stretched out his hand and patted Tang Muxian, and praised with a big finger:

"Don Xiao did a good job, but he couldn't be cheap"

Cheng Ke nodded Tang Muxian's forehead, laughing and reprimanding:

"You haven't gotten married yet, and you dare to mess around with them? Aren't you afraid that on the day you get married, I will flood you so that you can't enter the new house for three days? ”

Everyone laughed and shouted, "Xiao Tang, don't pay attention to him first, then say" "Xiao Tang, if you don't feed him today, he will have to fill him when the time comes, don't spare him......

Tang Muxian held a cup in one hand and a pot in the other, looked at Cheng Ke, and said with a smile:

"I'll talk about it later, you drank these three glasses of wine today."

Zhou Jingran was helping in the back with interest,

"Drink it, Xiao Tang, you can't miss a glass of wine"

Cheng Ke angrily pushed Zhou Jingran back with his elbow, took the cup in Tang Muxian's hand, and simply drank three cups in a row.

The crowd became excited, screaming chaotically, and rushed over with their glasses, "And mine", "You can't favor one over the other", "I have to drink this cup of mine", ......

Nanhai squeezed in, raised his voice and reported:

"Lord Shizi, the prince asked you to hurry up and toast outside, you hurry up"

Cheng Ke hurriedly hugged his fists and slipped out in a panic with Nanhai.

Zhou Jingran paced out of the West Chamber, stood in the shade under the eaves of the porch, shook the folding fan, looked at Cheng Ke, who was going in and out of the various sheds in the courtyard, hurriedly turned around, and secretly slipped away to the inner courtyard, sighed slowly, looked up at the bright stars and moon in the sky, and became infinitely sad.
