Chapter 43: The Gift
Now the most worrying thing is the physical condition, Su Yingrou's body is too weak, once the eldest aunt let herself raise her hand and surrender, this is definitely not a good thing, in the past, the eldest aunt drove her to her and could still stand part-time in the hotel for eight hours, not counting the hard work of delivering fruit plates upstairs and downstairs, now it is too weak!
No, you have to work out! Su Yingtong secretly decided that she couldn't go on like this!
Immediately let Qingmei prepare pen and ink, Su Yingtong efficiently designed a short-term exercise plan, morning running and morning swimming, aerobic and anaerobic exercises, plus yoga and aerobics, she didn't believe that she couldn't exercise the physique of a national athlete! Even if you are qualified to participate in the Olympics!
Su Yingtong smiled proudly and handed the paper to Qingmei, "Qingmei, you help me keep it, remember to remind me as written in the future!" β
Qingmei took it with both hands, and looked at it carelessly, except for a few words that the princess usually taught, the others really didn't understand, and after a long time, she still asked carefully: "Princess, what is written on this?" β
"Yes, you still don't understand," Su Yingtong patted his head, "It's okay, it's the same for me to tell you." β
took the paper and told Qingmei carefully, including the time and amount of exercise requirements for various exercises, etc., seeing that Qingmei nodded again and again and said clearly, she promised to do a good job of supervision, Su Yingtong waved her hand and asked her to do her own thing, and she sat on the side in a daze, alas, she can't do too intense exercise in the current extraordinary period, and the exercise plan can only be postponed, Su Yingtong is lifeless in her mind thinking about how to design jewelry for the palace mirror domain, the jewelry is for Princess Shadow Moon, it will be a little more luxurious, The pattern has to be younger, and the color can't be too vulgar......
Oops, it's annoying!
Su Yingtong grabbed his head with both hands, he knew that he would not accept the business of the Palace Mirror Domain! Although there is plenty of time, it is a lot of hard work! Why? Why let her know it's a birthday present for the princess?! She's under a lot of pressure!
Gongjing Domain, you are too ruthless!
In the next few days, Su Yingtong's creative thinking was almost squeezed dry.
"Princess, take a break, you've been painting all afternoon." Qingzhu put down the ginseng tea, walked behind Su Yingtong and pressed her temples, looking at the waste paper on the table, she could only sigh secretly, the princess has been painting like this recently, and there are no satisfactory works, not to mention the effort, people are a lot haggard.
"It's okay, I don't believe it, it's been so many days, and I don't even have a clue, how is this possible? Is my intelligence declining? β
Su Yingtong muttered, burying his head and making persistent efforts,, it is really no good to spread it in the palace mirror domain, and now he is mentally retarded, and he can't even draw a picture.
"Princess, a few days ago, Xiao Shizi came to Xuelan Courtyard to look for you, it seems that there is something special?" Qingzhu saw that Su Yingtong was not a way to go on like this, and tried to divert her attention.
"Xiao Zhao? What's the matter with him? Su Yingtong raised his head, stared at the smallpox and tried to recall, because he had to retreat and draw, he hadn't been to Yu'an Courtyard for several days, and Xiao Zhao didn't come over for some reason, and he didn't notice it! What a damn one!
Su Yingtong scolded in a low voice, he was too indifferent to Xiao Zhao, the last time I saw him, it was the time when I had menstrual pain, and he was still very righteous to move the palace mirror domain to see himself, although I don't know what commendable good things the palace mirror domain did later, but just looking at Xiao Zhao's concern is touching! Now that I think about it, what did he look for himself for at that time? Even Qingzhu noticed it, but he didn't know it at all, it was really a failure.
Throwing the pen away, Su Yingtong stood up: "Qingzhu, follow me to Yu'an Courtyard." "Let's go see the little guy first, anyway, I can't draw anything now, so it's better to take it easy.
"Yes, Princess."
When Qingzhu heard this, he hurriedly asked someone to bring a cloak to Su Yingtong to put on, now it is late autumn, and it is cold outside, so it is better to pay attention to it.
"No need," Su Yingtong waved his hand, "I'm going to run later, so I don't want these things." Since she booked the fitness plan, she has really not been lazy, it is really not easy to think about it, and she actually persevered!
"Princess, how much exercise do you have today......"
"Okay, I'll remind the princess, Qingmei, you go to the kitchen to supervise dinner, don't let them be lazy."
"This ...... Good. β
Qingmei handed the form in her hand to Qingzhu, and retreated towards Su Yingtong, Su Yingtong glanced at Qingzhu casually, didn't say anything, raised her legs and walked out. Although Qingzhu owes a debt to the people below, she is still very dedicated to her, and it is really difficult to change it for a while, so let's take it slowly.
I saw a lot of domestic servants all the way on foot, everyone was respectful to her, and the due courtesy was not missing, Su Yingtong only bowed slightly, how could she not see their perfunctory, and others might be angry, but she really didn't care.
This Xiangyuan palace itself doesn't know how long it will stay, so why bother in vain.
"The princess is here, please inside."
When Aunt Yun, the nurse of Xiao Shizi, saw Su Yingtong coming, she hurriedly greeted her and entered the courtyard, with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant.
Su Yingtong raised her lips slightly: "Then there is a nurse." β
Speaking of Aunt Yun, she also has weight in this mansion, not to mention anything else, just because she used to be the person next to the old princess, it is enough for her to be admired by the people in the mansion, and her ability to do things is indeed good.
Su Yingtong knows less about Aunt Yun, she has always been wary of the people here, and deliberately asked herself not to be overly involved in the people and things here, so when she talked to Aunt Yun, she was naturally less close, and a little more polite than to ordinary people.
It's just that Aunt Yun didn't seem to be very interested in Su Yingtong's polite "Youlao", and nodded with a smile, which made Su Yingtong, who had always been faint, interested.
In this era, the subordinates of this palace can accept the master's thanks so calmly, there are no more than two reasons, or she is too white-eyed and ignorant of the severity, relying on the old and selling the old self-righteousness; Either she does have some status in the house. And Aunt Yun has been mixed in the mansion to this age, and it seems that there may be more of the latter.
But he didn't think about it, when Su Yingtong followed Aunt Yun into it, he saw the palace children who were still very cute, and the troubles in his mind were completely forgotten.
"Xiao Zhao!"
raised his voice and shouted, Su Yingtong thought that Xiao Zhao would run towards him happily as usual, but to her surprise, Xiao Zhao just looked up at her, and then lowered his head and wrote as usual.
What's wrong? Are you angry with her?
Su Yingtong was a little sad, she knew that she had always neglected to take care of Xiao Zhao, and most of the things she had done before were to give herself more weight to survive in the mansion, but in addition, she really didn't really care about him.
Now that he is unhappy, or has a little complaint about himself, but he doesn't dare to say it directly, is it in his heart, he still doesn't believe enough in himself and doesn't fully agree?
Even if so, who is to blame?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt guilty, Su Yingtong motioned to the people around her to retreat, walked to Xiao Zhao and sat down, reached out and rubbed his little head, his hair was soft and very comfortable to touch, Su Yingtong realized at this time that the original person in front of him was really a child less than five years old, and the usual sensible and accidental domineering of Xiao Shizi always gave her an illusion, Xiao Zhao had grown up, but in fact, he was still a little boy who had troubles but didn't dare to say that he didn't know who to say, thinking of this, Su Yingtong's voice couldn't help but soften: " What's the matter with Xiao Zhao, right? Tell me about my mother? β
"It's fine."
The little guy just shook his head, but still didn't look up.
Su Yingtong sighed, her part-time mother was really incompetent. Reaching out to take the brush in the little guy's hand and setting it up, Su Yingtong pressed his little shoulders with both hands and turned him around, forced him to look at himself, and said, "Is it the anger of the biological mother?" I'm sorry, but my mother has been busy lately......"
"It's not."
"Not? Why is that? Palace...... Your father is bullying you again? Su Yingtong guessed this possibility, and she was also discouraged in her heart, if this was the case, it would be really difficult for her to help him get ahead, and now she didn't want to face the Palace Mirror Domain, let alone find a theory, she would definitely lose badly.
"Nope."
No? Su Yingtong exhaled happily, but immediately became nervous again: "Then why the hell, can't you sue the concubine?" The mother concubine is so powerful, what else is there about the mother concubine who can't be fair? "Now Su Yingtong is really nervous, who dares to bully the little prince of the king of Xiangyuan! Isn't that looking for death!
Stretched out his hand to check Xiao Zhao's pulse, it's normal, there is no abnormality in the body, it shouldn't be because of discomfort, Su Yingtong is worried, these are not, so why?
"Mother, do you know when Yi'er was born?"
Well? Su Yingtong is a little confused, does it have anything to do with this?
"Listen to Qingzhu and them, Xiao Zhao is five years old this year, so ...... It was five years ago! β
Xiao Zhao shook his head more vigorously, he looked at Su Yingtong and said seriously: "No, yesterday Ye Guard received an invitation from Prince Jian's Mansion, saying that Gong Mozhang was going to invite this prince to his birthday banquet. β
Hearing that Xiao Zhao Yan sΓΉ used the title of "Ben Shizi", Su Yingtong knew that things were strict, and resisted the urge to laugh, Su Yingtong thought about it carefully, and seemed to have captured something, and after meditating for a while, Su Yingtong finally understood that the emotional little guy was jealous!
Didn't he have a birthday?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Su Yingtong tried hard to ask tactfully: "Xiao called you...... Will it go? When the words came to his lips and turned away, Su Yingtong couldn't bear to ask too directly, so he could only find words randomly.
"I don't want to go."
"Why?"
"This son is a busy man, how can he have that leisure!"
Su Yingtong smiled, for the little guy's sensible and strong.
It's obviously jealous that people can hold a birthday party, and they are still strong! But he didn't poke him out, and casually found a topic to distract the little guy.
It's just that Xiao Shizi was a little disappointed when he saw that Su Yingtong really didn't ask, but he didn't know how to answer when he asked, alas! It's annoying!
It's a real annoyance to grow up!
In the next few days, Xiao Shizi did not go to Xuelan Courtyard abnormally, and the people in the house still speculated how Xiao Shizi suddenly became sensible, and he practiced martial arts and studied every day, so he never bothered the prince.
But this well-behaved only lasted a few days.
As soon as dawn broke, the genius was bright, and the unusual noise of Yu'an Courtyard broke the peace of the palace.
"Fuck off! This son is going to see his father! β
"Back to the world, if the prince is not in the mansion, there is no need to go over."
"You're stopping me?"
"Don't dare, but the prince has an order ......"
"That prince is going to see his mother in the Snow Courtyard Courtyard."
"The ...... of the Prince"
"Get out!"
The guards shrank down, and finally fell under the majesty of their little prince and flashed to the side.
Gong Zhaoyi was no longer embarrassed by the guards, and ran towards Xuelan Courtyard with one leg in his legs.
Where did my father go? Doesn't the concubine know?
finally came to the Selangorin Courtyard, but the scene in front of him disappointed him.
"Aunt Qingzhu, where is the concubine?"
"The slave maid has seen Xiao Shizi," Qingzhu was a little surprised when he saw that it was Xiao Shizi, why did Xiao Shizi come over so early? "The princess didn't sleep well yesterday and is still resting. Did Shizi use it too soon? Do you want a slave to prepare? β
"No need," hearing that the concubine hadn't gotten up yet, Gong Zhaoyi hung down her little shoulders in disappointment, "Then you have to take care of the concubine, I'll go back." Thinking that the concubine might not have recovered from the abdominal pain a few days ago, although the palace children were worried, in order not to hinder the concubine's rest, they could only leave unhappy.
"Princess, the little prince has gone back."
In the kitchen, Su Yingtong, who was said to be "unwell", was busy at the cooking table at this time, and he only nodded to Qingzhu's reply, and he didn't mean to speak.
Qingzhu couldn't help it in the end, and asked, "Princess, what are you doing now...... What is it? "If you want to hide from Xiao Shizi to prepare a surprise for him, they understand, but what is really puzzling is that no matter how you look at what the princess gets up early in the morning to make trouble, it has nothing to do with celebrating her birthday!
"You don't understand this, this is the legendary birthday cake!" Su Yingtong said triumphantly while kneading the dough, "How can you have a birthday without a birthday cake, you have a good mouth tonight!" β
Speaking of tonight's birthday party, Su Yingtong is not unexpected, this can be regarded as the most commendable thing she has done since she came here! Not one of them! Even if I earned two thousand taels, I was not so happy! In addition to her extremely sensitive perception of Xiao Zhao's strangeness and painstakingly pestering Aunt Yun for a few days to finally know Xiao Zhao's birthday, she also painstakingly prepared a lot of necessary artifacts for birthdays, so the birth of this birthday cake is really not simple!
