Chapter 319: Entering the Palace to Greet the New Year
Qin Haichuan sent Qin Mengdie out of the house, walked outside and asked in a low voice, "Mengdie, will you stay in the palace?" ”
Qin Mengdie knew that her father was somewhat dependent on her in this matter, after all, she was an insider in this matter, and Qin Haichuan was such a person who could discuss.
"Back to my father, I try not to stay in the palace as much as possible, Concubine Xian is open-minded, and if she says the reason, she will understand me." Qin Mengdie gave his father a definite answer, which reassured him.
For his daughter's sensibility and understanding, Qin Haichuan nodded with deep satisfaction: "Go ahead, be careful, talk less and make fewer mistakes, after all, it is in the palace." As a father, I still can't help but nag a few words.
Qin Mengdie patted his father's arm: "Father, don't worry, don't you know me?" You take good care of the fifth aunt, don't let her out of the house, try not to let others come to see, the enemy will be pushed to the limit before he will attack desperately. ”
"It's not early, you can go quickly, rest assured at home." Qin Haichuan glanced at Heavenly Dao.
In the past two days, Qin Haichuan has been much emaciated, and it is indeed difficult to accept such a thing, or on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve. Fortunately, Qin Mengdie is by his side now, otherwise he may be carried away by sadness, and it will be even more difficult to find out the real culprit.
The father and daughter have indescribable feelings at this time, the connection of blood and bones, and more is that Qin Mengdie still likes his father's character, this father is not stupid and filial, if he changes to a brainless filial piety, then there is no need to check this matter.
Qin Mengdie got into the carriage and brought Shuang'er with her today, and the most important thing to enter the palace was people, and the palace maids walked by in rows. Let's just say that in the palace of Concubine Xian, the person who changes clothes and combs her hair is not alone, and the person who pours water and serves pastries has their own duties.
Every time Qin Mengdie entered the palace, he felt that his limbs would degenerate, but he still knew how to follow the customs of the locals, so he gladly accepted it.
When no one is around, she still only leaves Shuang'er by her side, she really doesn't know what to sleep and someone has to guard it for, but the identity is like this, and the hierarchy is strict.
When I arrived at the gate of the palace, I saw the pair of dragons flying and phoenix dancing written on both sides of the gate of the imperial city: Kewei Xingyu Langyao Nine Heavens Around the North Pole; The sea and mountains are dense and dense, and the five colors protect the eastern capital.
There are two huge blessing characters pasted on the main entrance. There is a string of 'hanging money' under the horizontal batch.
The outer walls surrounding the palace are covered with bright red lanterns. There are also some palace people who are still pasting blessing characters, and some are cleaning the road outside the palace wall.
Entering the palace gate, the eunuchs and maids inside all changed into red palace clothes, and each courtyard was pasted with a pair of blessing characters. Reflecting the snow on the roof. makes Qin Mengdie a little nostalgic for being in the countryside in Northeast China when she was a child.
At that time, I liked the Chinese New Year the most. The conditions of the family are not so good, but there will be new clothes after the New Year, and they all have to steam sticky bean buns. Killing pigs and chickens, sticking pairs, and watching Yangge twisting, that was the happiest time when I was a child.
When I grew up, my living conditions were better, but people didn't have those simple satisfactions, and even forgot to feel such moments.
After entering the palace, I first went to Concubine Xian's palace, and when I entered the flower hall, Concubine Xian and Xiaoxiao were fiddling with a bunch of new clothes.
Seeing Qin Mengdie coming in, Concubine Xian spoke first: "Why did you come so late, come in quickly, smile and muttered all night yesterday, you don't come to accompany us for the New Year." ”
Qin Mengdie didn't want to tell Concubine Xian about yesterday's mansion in the morning, after all, the New Year's Eve would affect her mood in life and death, not to mention having lunch with the emperor at noon.
She stepped forward and knelt down to give a big salute: "Happy New Year to the mother, I wish the mother concubine good health, all the best, and happiness forever." ”
Concubine Xian had some tears in her eyes, maybe this scene reminded her of the prosperous world, but she quickly calmed down and walked over to pull Qin Mengdie: "Good child, the mother concubine has prepared a New Year's gift for you." ”
At this time, Xiaoxiao also ran over and hugged Qin Mengdie: "Happy New Year, mother." Xiaoxiao is dressed in a water-pink palace dress today, which is already fair-skinned, with her hair in a bun and two small braids in the back, which looks well-behaved and cute.
Qin Mengdie hugged and smiled: "My wife can't hold you, why is it so heavy?" Is it too much to eat. ”
At this time, Concubine Xian took out a coral bracelet from the inner room and brought it to Qin Mengdie: "This is Sheng Shi's favorite before, and now that the concubine has given it to you, it can be regarded as a gift from me and your sister to you." ”
Concubine Xian said this, which made Qin Mengdie feel very comfortable, she was not a stand-in, but the sister of Sheng Shi, Concubine Xian was such a person, and her feelings were just as clear.
Qin Mengdie didn't shirk it, and raised her hand with a hand: "It's just right, it seems that Sister Shengshi and I are really sisters." ”
Concubine Xian smiled and said: "Of course, let's pack up, and we will attend the palace banquet later, I have made you a few sets of clothes, come in and try it." ”
Qin Mengdie followed Concubine Xian into the inner room, and followed behind her with a smile: "Mother, why didn't my uncle come?" ”
"Bring your uncle in a few days, today's mother is in the palace to pay New Year's greetings." Qin Mengdie said as she walked forward with a smile.
smiled and pursed her lips: "My mother always says a few days, and each time a few days are long." ”
In fact, this matter is indeed Qin Mengdie's fault, she did have a perfunctory answer and smiled, if she lied and taught bad children, then she could only answer without a certain answer, so it was not a lie.
Qin Mengdie touched her smiling head: "In the future, my mother will try to be as accurate as possible, but what my mother said was inaccurate before." ”
Concubine Xian took out a few sets of newly made clothes, all of which were made of princesses, and the colors were different, and the styles and patterns were all different.
Originally, Qin Mengdie didn't pay so much attention to dressing, but girls still like beautiful clothes after all, she looked at them one by one: "The mother concubine is so good-looking, which one should I change today?" ”
Concubine Xian took out a long pink dress from the inside: "How about this, and Xiaoxiao is made of a kind of fabric." ”
Qin Mengdie almost said the parent-child clothes, Concubine Xian is quite fashionable, such an idea is estimated that few people in this era think so, even if the rich family does not pass on a cloth of clothes to the mother and daughter, it will make people feel that this family is a little poor.
But Concubine Xian doesn't think like that, as long as she thinks she looks good, Concubine Xian has not made enemies in the palace these years, and she must not offend people, so she has a good temperament, and she will not be on the same bar with others because she wears clothes of the same color.
Qin Mengdie looked at Concubine Xian and quipped: "Why doesn't the concubine make a set too, how good does the three of us look in the same color?" ”
Concubine Xian knocked Qin Mengdie's forehead: "Hun child, it's not serious." ”
Xiaoxiao covered her small mouth and smiled on the side: "Hun child, my mother is a Hun child." ”
The noise in the house, coupled with the blessing words posted everywhere in the New Year, made it even more festive.
At noon, Concubine Xian took Qin Mengdie and Xiaoxiao to the Taihe Palace. (To be continued......)
