Chapter 13: The Six Princes Return to Return
The eldest princess of Jiayu is here again.
The eldest princess of Jiayu and the Zhenguo Mansion have been in close contact, not long after the last time Xie Taijun saw her at the birthday banquet, the eldest princess of Jiayu came to visit the door again, and there was no need for too much red tape between relatives, but this time the eldest princess of Jiayu not only brought her baby second son, but also brought her nephew, the sixth prince Mu Congjin.
The Xie family inevitably welcomed them, and Mrs. Xie specially instructed the children to go back to the room quickly and dress up before going over.
Hearing that Mu Congjin is here, Qian Luojin doesn't mention how excited she is, Mrs. Qian personally selected clothes and jewelry for her, in Mrs. Qian's heart, Luo Jin's dress can't steal the limelight of the Xie family's daughter, it's useless to rob it anyway, Luo Jin and the prince can't have an intersection at all.
The light ginger silk skirt with a gold flowering bracelet is beautiful and decent but not eye-catching.
Old lady Xie and Uncle Xie were not at home, so Mrs. Xie led the family to greet her at the door, Princess Jiayu was a bold woman, and directly took Mrs. Xie's hand and walked together: "Don't be so pompous in the future, what about me, I just saw that Congjin was bored in the palace, and took him out to breathe, so that outsiders could see it and think too much." โ
Mrs. Xie nodded and said yes, the emperor has never set up a prince, and now all the princes are forming gangs in the court, and the Xie family has not been biased towards any prince, although the six princes are still young and will not be classified as the six princes, but more is better than one less, it is better to save the rules, I believe that the six princes also understand the truth and will not blame.
Mu Congjin can't wait for it, a bunch of people worship him everywhere in the palace every day, it's annoying enough, and if it's not for someone to kowtow a few more heads, he can really live a long life, just talking about being polite is dry.
Xie Tanyuan and Hua Yiwen have been playing together since childhood, since Qian Luojin deprived him of time to mess around in the afternoon, Xie Tanyuan was suffocated, and when he saw Hua Yiwen's eyes shining, he rubbed in front and walked with Hua Yiwen and Mu Congjin.
The four girls followed behind, Qian Luojin kept staring at Mu Congjin's back in front of her, and suddenly saw Mu Congjin pretending to turn around unintentionally and looked at her.
Adults have their own topics for adults to talk about, and children have fun for children.
Xie Yanyuan was the most hospitable age, and warmly invited Mu Congjin and Hua Yiwen to catch caterpillars with him and put them in Qian Luojin's house, in order to avenge Qian Luojin's blood feud for adding lessons to him.
After Hua Yiwen heard what Qian Luojin had done, he was especially upset with Xie Yanyuan, and he couldn't bear to add classes: "Wouldn't it be too boring just to release caterpillars?" What do you think of Nishiki? โ
Mu Congjin was already stunned when he heard it, Qian Luojin, Qian Luojin, you said how old you are, and you can't get along with children, look at you make the little son of the Xie family angry.
โโฆโฆ Forget it, how can you say that it's also your cousin, it's a relative, what if you let your aunt know? Mu Congjin tried to say something nice for Qian Luojin.
Hua Yiwen was the first to disagree: "I know, Congjin, you call it pity and cherish jade, right?" โ
"Sixth prince, don't look at my cousin's good looks, my heart is poisonous, don't pity her!"
What Mu Congjin thought in his heart was: Do you two little children know what it means to pity fragrant and cherish jade? It's just lazy, don't worry about it, Qian Luojin will suffer if he gets into trouble by himself, but it won't work if he catches the caterpillar.
Mu Congjin kindly pointed out a clear path to the two people in front of him: "Now that the weather is cold and there are few insects, why don't you go to the kitchen to find out if there are any vegetable green worms." โ
Leaving the two boys who hated dogs and cats, Mu Congjin wanted to go to Qian Luojin to exchange about the current situation, and by the way, he told her that she had caught the insects in the house before returning to the house at night.
Seeing Luo Jin sitting with the three young ladies of the Xie family from a distance, Mu Congjin wanted to walk away quietly, and was seen by the sharp-eyed Xie Mengyao: "The sixth prince? โ
Qian Luojin knew that Mu Congjin must have been too lazy to talk to a group of children, and wanted to sneak away but was stopped, covering her mouth and snickering gloatingly, and was glared at by Mu Congjin.
The girl who has the most intersection with Mu Congjin on the face is Xie Menghua, the palace gives a banquet, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie will take her there, although she and Mu Congjin haven't talked much, but they have also heard about some things in the palace, and I heard that this sixth prince is cold and eccentric by nature, Xie Menghua and Mu Congjin are under a lot of pressure to sit together.
But Xie Menghua is a concubine, and it should be her duty to communicate with children with status, so she can't let Mu Congjin sit with her sisters-in-law, that is an insult. I had to sit hard.
Xie Mengyao was holding a handkerchief in her hand, nervously clenching her hands were hurting, as a concubine, she was afraid that she would have a rare opportunity to see the prince in her life, and she wanted to be close to Mu Congjin, but she was afraid that she would offend Mu Congjin by speaking first, and her heart was twisted like a โกโก flower.
Mu Congjin didn't speak, no one dared to speak first, the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, strange, Mu Congjin didn't eat people, Luo Jin coughed lightly, and pushed the plate of fried fruits on the table in front of Mu Congjin: "Winter confectionery is very delicious, the six princes try it?" โ
"Cousin!" Xie Mengxi whispered Qian Luojin, and pulled Luojin's clothes vigorously under the table, if the six princes didn't like to eat, wouldn't she be considered offended by the six princes.
Mu Congjin really tasted one, and watched the fried fruit enter Mu Congjin's mouth, the three sisters of the Xie family all raised their throats in their hearts, and only Qian Luojin was still smiling.
"It's delicious, it's different from the taste in the palace, what did you put it?"
was questioned by Mu Congjin, Dong Hua gave a blessing first, and said honestly: "Slaves, slaves and maids put sesame seeds, black sesame seeds." โ
"If you have the opportunity, the six princes must try the chestnut cake made of winter sweets, it is particularly delicious!" When it comes to the chestnut cake of the winter confectionery, Luo Jin feels that her saliva is dripping.
Xie Menghua hurriedly stopped Luo Jin: "The imperial chef in the palace doesn't know how to do anything, don't always pretend to be in front of the six princes with our rough snacks." โ
"The imperial chef's dim sum is too much and I am tired of it, and the ones in your house are also fresh."
Fellow countryman, you always have to take extra care of her, Qian Luojin didn't know how much face Mu Congjin's understatement gave her.
Xie Mengxi's eyes were full of admiration when she looked at Qian Luojin, she only knew that Xie Mengyao was good at observing words and feelings, but she didn't expect that this Luojin cousin was a master, and she could find out the preferences of the six princes when they met for the first time.
Xie Mengyao immediately obediently pushed a cup of tea in front of Mu Congjin: "The sixth prince, please drink tea, high-quality jasmine tea." โ
The Six Princes seem to be quite easy to talk to? Xie Mengxi also had the courage to talk to Mu Congjin: "Jasmine is a woman's tea, the six princes are gentlemen at a glance, when will the six princes come next time to tell us in advance, I will go to my father to ask for cloud tea, that is the tea that the gentleman drinks." โ
"Chunyan, write down the words of the third sister and tell the third aunt to see if she can get out this month."
The third aunt is Xie Mengxi's weakness, and she doesn't care if she is a gentleman or not, she softens her face and behaves to Xie Menghua, Luo Jin is also amused by Xie Mengxi's anxious appearance: "Haven't you heard that women and villains are difficult to raise, and you dare to dislike the tea that our women drink?" โ
Mu Congjin watched the Xie sisters playing, and even showed a smile. Children are always the best contact, and after chatting with Mu Congjin for a few words, they gradually unloaded their hearts, as if they were no different from Hua Yiwen's second cousin of his uncle's family.
Although the children of the Xie family are a little noisy, compared to those in the palace who are full of palace fights, I don't know how much stronger, it is a rare time for him to relax in the Zhenguo Mansion.
The relationship between the Hua family and the Xie family is extraordinary, so familiar that even the cook in the Zhenguo Mansion knows what Princess Jiayu likes to eat, so it can be seen that Princess Jiayu has come to eat a lot.
The preferences of the Hua family, the housekeepers of the Xie Mansion are all clear, it is the preference of the six princes, and it is inevitable to consult the eldest princess Jiayu.
The eldest princess of Jiayu pondered for a long time, but she couldn't think of anything. Her nephew is young, his temperament is more dull than that of adults, he has never seen him happy, nor has he been frustrated, he finishes his schoolwork on time, and he stays by himself when he is free, far away from anyone, so Princess Jiayu often wants to take him out of the palace.
When the next person came to report that the sixth prince was chatting happily with the Xie family sisters, the eldest princess Jiayu was sure that she had come to the right place to bring him, the children of the Xie family were all good in appearance and character, and they were qualified to be playmates for the prince, and of course there was no problem with the children themselves, as long as their mothers had crooked thoughts.
Mrs. Xie really has crooked thoughts, but not to the six princes, but to Hua Yiwen. After eating, Mrs. Xie didn't let Xie Menghua go, and took her with her to show her daughter's excellence to Princess Jiayu.
Mu Congjin was entangled by Hua Yiwen and Xie Yanyuan again, in the morning they were sent by Mu Congjin to the kitchen to catch vegetable insects, this is a false proposition, the dishes in the Zhenguo Mansion have been selected, how can there be insects, the two of them rummaged through the vegetable basket and didn't catch them, and begged Mu Congjin to find some targets for their boring afternoons.
Mu Congjin thought of a good idea: "Didn't you say that it was heroic to fight pigs with bare hands last time, I just didn't see it, so I will show it again." โ
What a great opportunity to show his bravery in front of the six princes, of course Xie Yanyuan did not miss it, and warmly invited his sisters to come and see him fight with pigs.
Xie Mengyao is a lady, how can she go to a place like the kitchen, Xie Mengxi is a gentleman, and she doesn't go to the kitchen, only Qian Luojin is on the scene, the first time she saw someone fighting with a pig, Luojin was still very excited.
Seeing the excitement is not a big deal, Luo Jin gave a bad idea: "Cousin, you have already won the pig last time, wouldn't it be boring to fight again?" It's better to change the site and get the pig in the pond, and you know the water better than the one in the water. โ
The eldest grandson of the Zhenguo Mansion was swimming with a pig, the picture was so beautiful that Qian Luojin couldn't straighten her waist with a smile, and Hua Yiwen found two winter melons from the kitchen as war drums.
Mu Congjin couldn't stop laughing, and whispered to Qian Luojin: "What kind of grudge do you have with him?" Children are not spared. โ
"I have a big enmity with him, you didn't see him bullying me, he was a stumbling block on my road to Qingfu, you don't understand, you are the prince and no one will dare to tease you."
Mu Congjin's smile became faint, and he couldn't speak, all of which dissipated in Hua Yiwen's knocking melon and Qian Luojin's laughter.
