It will be Ah Xiu's birthday in two days, and Su Xin is also very good, and Ah Xiu finally allowed her to serve. Xu Da often conquered Taizhou before the spring, and Zhu Yuanzhang finally returned home from the army.

Ah Xiu doesn't like extravagance by nature, and in previous years, he just added a few dishes to celebrate his birthday with Zhu Yuanzhang and Lian'er Huilan.

This time, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to have a big banquet in the mansion, but Ah Xiu still insisted on refusing: "Although the prince has one side, but the war between the four parties has not stopped, and Qiu Qin has a miscarriage for a short time, so it should not be extravagant, not to mention that the prince has already sent a whole box of tea balls, and the concubines don't like luxury, and I hope that the prince will be fulfilled." ”

"Speaking of tea balls, Su Xin, are you in good health?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked Su Xin beside Ah Xiu, "I heard that you were sick a few days ago, I expected that it should be a matter of seeing things and thinking about people, and his feelings are pitiful, but don't forget the kindness of the princess to you." ”

"Don't dare to disobey the prince's orders, the princess is naturally high and wide to me, and I can't repay my heart, only serve and serve with all my heart to repay in case." Su Xin lowered his eyebrows.

"In that case, what does Ah Xiu think should be done on the birthday?" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and asked Ah Xiu again.

"Just fill in a few dishes and eat at one place, just like in previous years. This year, Huilan is in the other garden, in my opinion, it is better to call the two sisters Qingyun and Zhilan to come, okay? ”

"It's up to you, just don't eat just a few dishes as usual, you're too frugal, but I can't bear it." Zhu Yuanzhang said helplessly.

So in the evening, Qingyun Zhilan brought her children and nurses over for dinner, and Chenghuan was at the table, although there were few people, they were happy after all.

Full of wine and food, everyone left the table to chat. Zhu Yuanzhang picked up Zhen'er and Zhen'er together, but Chenghuan didn't follow: "Daddy is eccentric, he only hugs his younger brothers and doesn't hug Chenghuan!" ”

Lian'er laughed: "We are happy with pantothenic acid, come and come, come to Lianniang Niang, Lian Niangniang hug." ”

Cheng Huan made a grimace and got into Lian'er's arms and twisted the rope: "It's still Lianniang who hurts Cheng Huan, it's not like my father said that I love Cheng Huan the most, but I only hold my younger brothers and don't let go!" ”

Ah Xiu and Zhu Yuanzhang laughed when they heard this, and Ah Xiu said angrily: "What a sharp-toothed Chenghuan!" You will only do this to invite pets, why don't you think about how many times you see your father every month, and your brothers don't come here, you are like this, you are really spoiled. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang put down the brothers disapprovingly, and picked up Chenghuan from Lian'er's arms: "Don't listen to your mother!" Daddy just likes our Chenghuan's delicate little daughter's attitude, Daddy will take you to the Confucius Temple tomorrow to visit the temple fair to buy food, okay? ”

Cheng Huan was coquettish, and he didn't mean anything else, hearing Zhu Yuanzhang say this, he happily hugged Zhu Yuanzhang's neck and put it on his shoulder: "Daddy is the best!" ”

Ah Xiu said with a smile: "Since your father is dependent on you, it's not early, you have to go back to bed early, and get up early tomorrow morning to go to the temple fair!" Seeing that Cheng Huan took the maids back, Ah Xiu smiled at Zhu Yuanzhang again, "Since the prince promised Cheng Huan, it is better to take Lian Zhen'er and Lang'er all the way, let us hide and relax." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang naturally responded, and when it was time to go to bed, Lian'er and others excused themselves to leave, leaving Zhu Yuanzhang and Ah Xiu to talk to themselves.

After washing up properly, the two of them were lying on the bed, Zhu Yuanzhang looked sideways at Ah Xiu, and called softly: "Ah Xiu." Ah Xiu blushed and lazily responded: "Huh? ”

"Do you have unfulfilled wishes for your birthday today? I've given you a round for my husband. Zhu Yuanzhang patted his chest, full of pride.

"Old husbands and wives, how can there be so many wishes, but the children are thinking about it, and wanting to be with them for the rest of their lives is the biggest long-cherished wish." Ah Xiu is very shy.

Zhu Yuanzhang took pity on Ah Xiu's sideburns: "You will only work hard for this house all day long, and even your wishes are so thin, Ah Xiu, you will feel distressed for your husband." ”

Ah Xiu's face blushed even more: "The prince should go to bed peacefully, Chenghuan will come to make trouble again tomorrow morning." ”

The corners of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth twitched, and he smiled evilly: "Then it's annoying Mrs. Lao to wait for her husband to rest." ”

The two of them had to warm up for a while before they finally fell asleep.

On the second day, Ah Xiu asked Qingyun Zhilan and Zhu Yuanzhang to go to the temple fair together, and said that they were taking care of their young son, but in fact, it was to relieve Zhu Yuanzhang's pain of losing the child in Qiuqin's womb. When the temple fair came back, Qingyun and Zhilan were quite favored as Ah Xiu, and everyone praised them high and low, and no one mentioned Qiuqin for a while.

Although Su Xin recovered from her illness and everything was as yesterday, she did not forget that before her illness, Ah Xiu instructed her to inquire about the errand of the little girl in Yizhen's room, and after checking carefully, she came to Ah Xiu to reply: "Princess, that little girl has no family background involved, she is an orphan girl who was sold in by traffickers during the famine in previous years, and she has never befriended anyone. ”

Ah Xiu frowned slightly when he heard this, and Orr nodded: "It's hard for you to remember!" In this way, it is not the intention of others to calculate, it seems that it will take time to solve the disaster of Qiu Qin. ”

Before the words fell, Biao'er came: "Wang Niang! Wang Niang! Ah Xiu heard that he was not as calm as before, his heart jumped, and he quickly got up: "Biao'er is here?" Zhu Biao carefully saluted: "Back to my mother, the matter you explained to the child has been done, and this is what Sister Zhuqin asked me to bring to you." ”

Ah Xiu took it and saw that it was a cotton cloth handkerchief, with only eight words on it: the preface is true, and the culprit is Sun Fu.

Su Xin peeked at the side, puzzled. Ah Xiu didn't say much, praised Biao'er, and when he went, Ah Xiufang handed over the previous letter and this handkerchief to Su Xin: "Oh! See it at a glance. ”

Ying'er took the other little girls one step earlier, and there were only three people left in the room.

"What does the princess think now? Do you want to send a family member to another garden to get people? Ying'er frowned and asked what Ah Xiu meant.

"It's bound to go, but who goes, whether or not you startle the snake is more important." Ah Xiu sighed, "I thought it was just a matter of grabbing the prince's heart, but now that it is involved in such a thing, if the prince knows, he will definitely not be forgiving." ”

"It's a big matter, the princess of others shouldn't be able to believe it, why don't I go." After thinking about it again and again, I felt that it was most appropriate for me to take a trip.

"It's okay for you to go, don't alarm others, just say that at the end of the year, Lamei in the house needs someone to take care of it, let him come back." Ah Xiu thought about it and nodded.

Ying'er asked again: "Do you want to call Yan'er back?" Ah Xiu shook his head: "You can't startle the snake, Yan'er is over there, Qiuqin is naturally stable, let's judge Sun Fu first, if there is, naturally confront it, if not, so as not to cause trouble again." ”

Su Xin saw that there were no other instructions, so she took two little girls to the other garden to deceive Sun Fu, and Ying'er couldn't help but discuss on the side: "If it's true, will Qiu Qin's child be Sun Fu's harm?" How can a man who has already gone to Beyuan on an errand do something to his relatives in the mansion? ”

Ah Xiu looked out the window and said to herself, as if talking to herself: "The sunset is like fire, and tomorrow will be a good day." (To be continued.) )
