It was already close to lunch when they came out of the palace, if it was in the past, they would have come out after lunch in the palace, but today, the second prince is sick, and the official family is now only two sons, and children are the most likely to die, so they are nervous up and down.

The Empress Dowager Song also took someone to see the second prince, and Jiao Wanwan simply didn't stay in the palace to eat, so as not to cause trouble.

But when I came out, I was a little hungry, and I happened to see the restaurant next to me, and suddenly remembered that I hadn't had lunch outside for a long time, so I hurriedly called Zhao Defang, stretched out my hand to cover my stomach and asked pitifully: "Otherwise, let's use it outside and go back?" It's still early at this time, and there is nothing else to do when you go home, so I'll go around later? ”

Zhao Defang frowned slightly: "In the big winter, what's better?" ”

"It's almost the end of the year, and there's a lot of fun." Jiao Wanwan said with a smile: "I heard someone say a few days ago that there is going to be a juju competition in the east of the city, and I may be able to see it today." ”

In trivial matters, Zhao Defang would never refute Jiao Wanwan's face, so with a nod of response, the husband and wife got out of the carriage, entered the restaurant, and asked for a private room. Jiao Wanwan looked at the water sign on the wall, was ordering food, and suddenly remembered the reminder of congratulations in the morning, reached out and touched her stomach, and hurriedly swallowed the name of the dish that came to her mouth.

"But the prince is inside?" ordered a few ordinary dishes, and before Xiao Er came up with a tray, he first heard a delicate voice at the door, just listening to this voice, Jiao Wanwan couldn't help but hold her forehead, with a depressed and helpless face, it was too familiar, since this person pestered Zhao Defang once in the palace last year, it was like a bear that smelled the sweet smell of honey, and Zhao Defang's whereabouts could be captured ten miles away, and then caught up and entangled.

Jiao Wanwan was a little unhappy about her age, but Zhao Defang took a firm stand, and she didn't take it to heart when she was confessed by the little lady of the Gao family several times, as always, she was only good to Jiao Wanwan alone, so slowly, Jiao Wanwan didn't care too much.

But I can't stand the tall little lady is very persevering, if I fail to confess today, Ming'er will come again, and Ming'er will do it again the day after tomorrow, the frequency at the beginning is once a month, and then the frequency is once a month, and now, it is about to develop into once a day.

Jiao Wanwan looked at Zhao Defang speechlessly: "I heard that I went to the academy to find you last time?" ”

Zhao Defang shook his head: "I didn't see it, the academy didn't allow outsiders to enter, but I heard that she waited at the door for a while, and was later persuaded away by Mr. Gao." "Although Mr. Gao is not a direct family member of Mrs. Gao, he has not been born for three generations, and his words are still relatively weighty.

Zhao Defang was also a little helpless: "If you go back and see Mrs. Gao, talk about it." ”

Jiao Wanwan was a little depressed in her heart and flew away: "When others encounter such a thing, it's too late to be happy, maybe you have to take it out to show off, why don't you look like you can't avoid it?" I look at the appearance of the tall lady, and she is also in the middle and upper posture. ”

Without waiting for Zhao Defang to speak, the tall lady outside couldn't wait, knocked on the door again and asked, "Lord Wang, is the slave in?" ”

Then, the door was pushed open, and the door was not locked because he was waiting for Xiao Er to deliver food. The little lady Gao came in sideways, didn't even look at Jiao Wanwan, her eyes fell directly on Zhao Defang, and her face instantly glowed, like a wolf who had been hungry for ten days and finally saw meat.

The footsteps were light and fast, and he went straight to Zhao Defang, Zhao Defang hurriedly leaned back and raised his hand to block: "Gao Xiaoniang, please respect yourself." ”

The little lady Gao paused, her face was shy: "Lord Wang, you are really here, we are so fateful, I have a rare trip, and I happened to meet the prince, which means that there is a spirit between us, right?" ”

Zhao Defang used to be very tolerant of the little lady Gao, looking at the face of the Gao family and Mr. Gao's face, he would not be ruthless to such a little lady. Besides, he has always felt that the tall lady is young and ignorant, and she can't let her bury her fate for a lifetime because of this moment of confusion. Therefore, when he met a tall lady before, if he couldn't hide from it, Zhao Defang would ignore it at most, and occasionally became impatient, so he reprimanded and persuaded him.

But today, I don't know if Jiao Wanwan is watching from the side, or if the behavior of the tall lady is too rude for Jiao Wanwan, Zhao Defang felt a little angry in his heart: "Didn't you send someone to guard in front of my palace just waiting for me to go out, and then follow the carriage to follow?" Where did fate come from? The unmarried little lady talks about fate all day long, is she ashamed? ”

His brows also wrinkled: "In the past, I understood that you were young, and for your cousin's sake, I was willing to save you three points of face, but now it seems that you don't even want these three points of face, if I find out next time that you sent someone to guard the carriage of my house, I will treat you for the crime of coveting the whereabouts of the prince of the dynasty, and let you go to the prison for two days to taste the taste of being locked up!" ”

These words are a bit heavy, the little lady who has not been out of the pavilion has been pointed at her nose and scolded for being shameless, and she has to be threatened to go to prison, these words are still in the mouth of the person she admires, and the tall lady can't react.

One is sad, the other is angry, Jiao Wanwan is still watching the play with her cheeks on the side, and the third is afraid, following a prince all day long, if the other party really wants to rectify her, this crime is real. Not to mention two days, she has to go to squat in prison for two months, and it is estimated that she will not be able to be fished out at home.

"Lord Wang, I, I just like you." The eyes of the tall lady turned red instantly, looking at Zhao Defang pitifully, like that, it was really pitiful, when she stopped Zhao Defang from confessing a year ago, it was only thirteen or fourteen, and this year, she is only fifteen years old, right?

Although Jiao Wanwan felt that she was a little pitiful, she didn't sympathize with her at all, Zhao Defang frowned: "I don't like you, even, I'm tired of you, as soon as you appear, I can't wait to leave immediately, you'd better stop pestering me, otherwise, even if the Gao family comes forward, I won't bypass you lightly." ”

Gao Xiaoniang's tears fell instantly, Jiao Wanwan raised her hand and knocked twice on the table: "Gao Xiaoniang, should you leave?" We still have to eat, and you stand here, it really affects your appetite and makes people unable to eat. ”

Who knows, as soon as she said this, the little lady Gao turned her head to look at her, and knelt in front of her with a poof: "Princess Niangniang, please, give the slave a way to live, if the slave can't marry the prince, he won't be able to live." ”

has lived two lives, except for on TV, Jiao Wanwan is the first time to see such a living wonder, her eyes widened instantly, and she couldn't cry or laugh in her heart. Zhao Defang thought she was frightened, raised her hand and squeezed her hand in the palm of her hand, squeezed it twice comfortingly, and frowned at the little lady Gao: "It seems that you didn't listen to my words in your heart, come on." ”

The guards waiting outside hurriedly came in, and Zhao Defang nodded at the little lady Gao: "Send someone to Gao's house and pass on my words, this is the last time, for the sake of General Gao." Let the Gao family take care of people, and if there is a next time, let them visit them in prison. ”

The tall lady opened her mouth and was about to shout, but was blocked by the guard's quick handkerchief, and then the person was dragged out. As for whether she will be seen outside, which will damage the reputation of the little lady, Zhao Defang can't care about it.

Jiao Wanwan shook her head and sighed: "The Gao family is not a small family, how to raise a little lady like this......"

Zhao Defang paused for a moment before saying: "The Gao family is such a little lady, and she is arrogant, another day, you invited Mrs. Gao to speak, if the Gao family can't control it, let the mother reward the aunt for raising the past." ”

The Gao family has only one little lady now, but what about the future? There must always be other little ladies, if the Empress Dowager Song rewards her aunt, then the entire little lady of the Gao family will have a bad reputation.

For this one, the reputation of the girls of the whole clan was ruined, even if the Gao family was willing, the Gao family clan was unwilling.

"Okay, okay, don't be in a bad mood for an outsider, why hasn't Xiao Er served the food at this time?" Jiao Wanwan covered her stomach and looked at the door, she was really hungry, if she didn't give her food any more, her stomach would rumble after a while.

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Er came in with a tray, in the winter, all of them were hot dishes, and when he lifted the lid on it, a fragrance came out. In ancient times, there was no gutter oil or anything like that, and it was still very reassuring to eat out.

Jiao Wanwan felt that her saliva was about to come down, and she looked at Zhao Defang busily: "Let's start eating?" ”

The can't wait to be gluttonous, and a little cute, looking at Jiao Wanwan like this, the mood ruined by the little lady of the Gao family, suddenly got a little better, Zhao Defang bent the corners of his mouth, and gave Jiao Wanwan a dish: "Your favorite meat, taste it, you don't need to lose weight now, besides, it doesn't hinder you to eat once in a while, let's go shopping after eating, eliminate food, and ensure that there will be no meat." ”

Jiao Wanwan opened her mouth with a smile, the smell of fragrant meat, when she ate it, she felt that the whole person was going to float up, there was a saying that was so right, in this world, there is nothing that cannot be solved by one meal, if there is, then two. If it still can't be solved, add another meal.

"You eat too, speaking of which, if Lotus knows that we don't take him with us when we eat out, maybe the stinky boy will make a fuss." After leaving the palace, because Jiao Wan fell asleep, Jiao Wanwan wanted to go out for a stroll at that time, and it was not easy to take him with her, so she asked the nurse to take the person back to the house, and I don't know if she woke up at this time.

"I didn't eat anything, who made him young, if he wasn't satisfied, he should eat more and sleep more, and grow up early." Zhao Defang said with a smile, and looked at Jiao Wanwan again: "Hua Rong is also a year old, do we want to have another son?" ”

Jiao Wanwan's face flushed, and just as she was about to speak, she snorted twice dissatisfiedly: "I just want a son? Don't want a daughter? ”

In fact, Jiao Wanwan herself wants a daughter, and she has been dressed up like a little princess since she was a child, no, although she is not a real little princess, but Zhao Defang's daughter is the county lord, no matter how favored she is, it is not impossible to have the title of princess when she gets married.

Well, if you have a girl, you will make parent-child clothes in the future, and you and your daughter will wear exactly the same clothes and jewelry, and if they look exactly the same, it will be better. However, Zhao Defang is so handsome, maybe the girl is better than the blue?

"The girl is also very good, and I like it too." Zhao Defang smiled and nodded, Jiao Wanwan hurriedly diverted the topic, planning to wait for two days to ask the doctor to check the pulse and make sure, it is estimated that it will not be diagnosed now: "Let's go shopping later, remember to buy some toys for the cocous, otherwise he will be unhappy if he goes back." ”

Children also have tempers, and it is not easy to coax them when they get angry.

Zhao Defang nodded again, and Jiao Wanwan dragged her stool to move to him: "The tall lady is really good-looking, are you really not tempted at all?" ”

Zhao Defang was helpless: "Such a little lady, whoever marries back will have a restless house, and besides, with such a capable and virtuous daughter-in-law, and a beautiful daughter-in-law, how can I make you sad for such a troubled child?" ”

Jiao Wanwan smiled contentedly, and the meal was more fragrant.

Afraid of eating too much and growing too fat, out of the restaurant, Jiao Wanwan dragged Zhao Defang to go shopping on foot, turned the sky slightly dark, and the night market came up, for fear that she would be attracted by various food stalls again, and was busy going home with all kinds of loot from shopping today.

The little fat man was really angry, he was lying on the soft couch listlessly pinching the rattle, and when he saw Zhao Defang and Jiao Wanwan entering the door, the little fat man turned around with great effort and didn't look at Jiao Wanwan and Zhao Defang.

Jiao Wanwan knows a lot about her own little fart, and seeing that he was angry, she hurriedly took the sugar gourd she bought and dangled behind him: "Ouch, the sugar gourd I bought on purpose, it's delicious, it's crispy and sweet on the outside, sour and soft on the inside, it's very delicious, I want to eat it, Lang Jun, I don't seem to want to eat this, otherwise, I'll eat it first, right?" ”

Zhao Defang smiled and nodded: "It's okay, you can eat it, when you want to eat it, we will buy it in two days." ”

Jiao Wanwan took a bite: "It's so delicious, I've never eaten such a delicious sugar gourd, it's so delicious, Lang Jun, do you want to try it too?" ”

Without waiting for Zhao Defang to reply, the little fat boy couldn't help it, turned around quickly, and pounced on Jiao Wanwan, Jiao Wanwan hurriedly squatted down slightly and hugged the person, and handed the sugar gourd over: "Do you want to taste it too?" ”

"Yes, my!" The little chubby boy held the sugar gourd and announced, and took a bite of it, although he was still a little unhappy, he was willing to talk to Jiao Wanwan: "Mother is bad, father is bad!" Bad bad! ”

"It's good, my mother is bad, your father is also bad, I'll definitely take you next time." Jiao Wanwan said with a smile, helping the girl pick up the sugar residue on her clothes, the child's temper came and went quickly, and she soon leaned on Jiao Wanwan with a smile.

"Are you hungry?" Zhao Defang took the opportunity to sit down next to him and pressed the little fat man's stomach, and the little fat man nodded hurriedly: "Hungry, hungry." ”

Jiao Wanwan looked at the nurse on the side, and the nurse hurriedly stepped forward to report: "Xiao Langjun just woke up and ate milk once, and then he couldn't see the princess and the princess, so he lost his temper a little, and only ate two pieces of dim sum in the afternoon." ”

But Jiao Wanwan was distressed, and she was busy asking people to put dinner on the table, the cocoa was already a year old, and supplementary food had already been added, and dinner was all replaced with normal meals, a bowl of porridge, a piece of pumpkin pie, and two plates of side dishes.

People never have to worry about eating, and they are particularly cheerful when they snort. Jiao Wanwan looked at it with a smile on the side, and discussed with Zhao Defang: "The lotus is not small, start tomorrow, let him learn to use the dishes and chopsticks by himself?" ”

Zhao Defang frowned slightly: "Isn't it too early, only one year old, other people's children are still breastfeeding at the age of one." ”

"Our family is still nursing when they are one year old." Although I eat it at night and add an extra meal in the middle, the three meals have all been replaced by normal meals.

"The child's hands are too small to hold steadily." Zhao Defang disagreed: "Besides, if you use too much and hurt your hand, how will you learn to write in the future?" Take your time, and don't rush either. ”

"It's just a bowl and chopsticks, you can't hurt it." Jiao Wanwan was helpless, but Zhao Defang still shook her head: "There is no shortage of one or two feeders in our family, why do we have to let the Lotus learn these early?" Take your time, and when he grows up a little bit, he can learn without teaching. ”

"The children of the eldest sister's family will eat by themselves at the age of three." Jiao Wanwan gave an example, and Zhao Defang shook his head: "You also said, three years old, we are only one year old, and we can't even speak clearly." ”

Usually talk with a guess.

Zhao Defang insisted, Jiao Wanwan had no choice but to give up, and then thought about it, in fact, there is no special benefit to learning to eat by herself earlier, isn't it self-reliance? You can start from other aspects, and you don't have to worry about eating and dressing.

Ancient and modern times are not the same, even if the rich family hires a nanny in modern times, they are not close to the bath, but in ancient times, it was different.

Two nurses, two upbringing aunts, four big maids, four second-class maids, and two little eunuchs, and when they are a little older, there are also scholars, and there are people who clean up the study. With such a growing environment, there is no need to rush to learn to dress and eat, just take your time.

"Okay, listen to you." Jiao Wanwan compromised, hugged the lotus and kissed her: "Your father is too good to you, you have to be filial to your father in the future." ”

Zhao Defang couldn't cry or laugh: "This is good for him?" ”

Lycopodium was confused: "Dad! Then grinning and smirking, Zhao Defang couldn't help laughing, raised his hand and pinched it on the face of the child, the mother was about to throw herself into Zhao Defang's arms with her hand open, the nurse was holding the bowl to feed, and she didn't watch out for him raising her hand and turning around, and the bowl in her hand fell.

Jiao Wanwan was used to seeing this scene, and waved her hand to signal the maid to come forward to clean up, and pressed the little belly of the lotus: "Have you eaten enough?" ”

She smiled and stretched out her hand to Zhao Defang, Zhao Defang took the person out and looked at Jiao Wanwan: "Go around the garden?" ”

Before, Jiao Wanwan was trying to lose weight, but then Zhao Defang was idle and had nothing to do, so she simply followed behind, and then she couldn't stay idle, and as soon as she saw that the two of them were going to go out of the room, she immediately wanted to follow.

So, now it is a habit, and after dinner, the family of three goes to the back garden for a walk. In order to make this behavior more convenient, lampposts were built on various roads in the garden, which were lit for an hour every night and would not be extinguished until the family of three had turned.

The lampposts are not far away, not to mention that the whole garden is illuminated as in the daytime, but look at the flowers and plants, well, I still can't see clearly, but the road is very clear.

"Today's dinner is a little too rich, and tomorrow's elements are lighter."

"The fabric that my mother sent some time ago, I saw that there were two horses, which are especially suitable for making coats, so let someone make two for you, go back and try it."

"The third sister said some time ago that she has a body, and when I turn around, I have to open the warehouse and pick up some good things and send them over."

"Father-in-law's letter has arrived, have you read it?"

"Zhong Zhan is estimated to have arrived at this time, and he has grown up."

"I don't know what it will look like in the future, whether I want to learn literature or martial arts."

"He learns whatever he wants, and people like us don't need him to make a name for himself."

The couple talked while walking, occasionally teasing a couple of sentences, and walked for nearly an hour, sweating and slightly panting before going back.

When Jiao Wanwan got up the next morning, Zhao Defang had already gone out, Jiao Wanwan yawned, she didn't think about it very much, but she had to get up again, although there were not many things, but it was not good to stay in bed for a day.

"Niangniang, Mrs. Gao sent a post and wanted to visit." Ping'an took a post over, Jiao Wanwan reached out and took it, looked at it twice, and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, just say that I'm free tomorrow, ask her to come over tomorrow." ”

said that he was going to come over to apologize, and he would see him tomorrow, so he would save himself from finding another opportunity to pass the word.

Mrs. Gao is in her thirties today, she looks very young, slightly fat, but her skin is very good, white and red, moist, and she doesn't even have a wrinkle when she laughs. Jiao Wanwan asked someone to sit down, and sighed in her heart, it seems that gaining weight is not without any benefits. At least, when you are less old, you can still be fat to look better and younger.

"I don't know if the princess is busy, so I rashly posted to the door, if I delay the princess, please forgive the princess." Mrs. Gao said with a smile, beckoned, motioned for her maid to step forward, and handed out a box first: "My little heart, please don't dislike it." ”

Jiao Wanwan didn't answer: "It's useless, Mrs. Gao, please take it back." ”

Mrs. Gao was a little embarrassed, put the box on the case beside her, and said with a smile: "The courtiers came this time, first, they want to visit the princess Niangniang, I have heard that the princess Niangniang has a way to make money, and the courtiers have long wanted to ask for advice, the courtiers have a rouge shop, and the loss in the past two years is strict, if the princess is willing, the courtiers are willing to give this shop to the princess Niangniang." Again, the courtiers are also to make amends, the courtier's ignorant daughter collided with the prince and the princess, the courtiers are cheeky to beg for mercy, and hope that the prince and the princess will forgive her sins, and spare her this time for the sake of her young age. ”
