186 The morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year
Early in the morning of the first day of the first year of Shengkang, Mu Fushu was called by Huqin.
Last night, I kept the New Year's Eve and didn't go back to my room in a daze until I was halfway through the hour. When I woke up in the morning, I found that I had taken off my coat, and the clothes on my body were all crumpled.
Baoqin had already taken new clothes and waited in front of the bed, seeing that Mu Fushu didn't seem to wake up, with anger on his face, he hurriedly knelt down and confessed: "Your Highness forgives your sins, it is really Aunt Xiyu's order, early in the morning of the New Year, to greet the eldest princess before sunrise, and the slave dared to wake up His Highness." ”
Mu Fushu's identity as the county lord has not been officially canonized, but it is shouted according to Yang Weiai's identity. In fact, Mu Fushu is already a sure queen, and she will get married in a month, and her honorific title has become everyone's tacit "His Royal Highness".
It was only at this time that Mu Fushu vaguely remembered that Aunt Xiyu seemed to have mentioned it yesterday, but she slept late, in fact, she lay down for less than two hours, and at this time, she only felt that her spirit was poor and her head was a little dizzy.
After freshening up, taking advantage of the fact that the girl who was waiting for him was not paying attention, he quietly drank half a cup of space well water, and Mu Fushu felt refreshed.
Huqin and Si Qi waited for her to put on a white fox cloak with a hood, Chunmian Chunxiao held a lantern in front, and a group of five people stepped out of the courtyard gate in the hazy night, at this time the morning star was shining, about five o'clock in the morning, it was the coldest time of the day, Mu Fushu shivered, Baoqin and Si Qi hurriedly stepped forward to help her pull the cloak, and walked beside her left and right to block the wind for her.
In fact, Mu Fu wears more than Baoqin and Siqi, the rules of this era are big, the cloak and the big hat can only be worn by the master with status, and the girls are all wearing big jackets. Mu Fu said kindly, the cotton jacket worn by the close-fitting girl is down, plus there is a rabbit fur vest outside, it will not be cold during the day, it is at this time in the wind, and it is still cold when it is blown by the wind.
Speeding up his pace, Mu Fushu looked at the two little girls in Chunmian and Chunxiao, who were not as tall as her, and cleared her throat a little uncomfortably: "There are lanterns hanging under the corridor, you can see clearly, don't go, go back and burn some ginger soup and drink it first, and we will drink it when we come back." ”
Chunmian Chunxiao obediently bent down and saluted, stood on both sides, and waited for her to pass before turning back to the courtyard.
Baoqin and Siqi glanced at each other in the dim light, although their bodies were cold, their hearts were hot. They had all worked in other people's families before, and they were not the children of the princess's house, strictly speaking, it was not their turn to serve His Royal Highness closely. If it weren't for the eldest princess who didn't have a family child of this age by her side, where would it be their turn to serve Her Highness? They have seen a lot of high-flying masters in the former master's house, and compared with His Royal Highness, they are simply compared to the mud!
They have not been following Mu Fushu for a long time, and they usually don't serve them very closely, mainly because Mu Fushu doesn't like people to follow them closely, most of them are waiting outside, and Mu Fushu will call them when there is something. The busiest thing is to wait for the county lord to get up in the morning, rinse his mouth, wash his face and comb his hair, and then wait for the county lord to rest in the evening. Usually, I wash the clothes for the county lord and tidy up the room, which is very leisurely. Compared with the aunt who is familiar with Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, it is much more comfortable. The county master is really good, he never scolds them loudly, and occasionally breaks a cup and burns a piece of clothing, but he just laughs, and at most warns them to be careful next time......
You must know that in this era, a piece of clothing of a noble person is worth more than a little girl!
Mu Fushu's status in their hearts has subtly risen to a height beyond the reach of mortals.
I don't know how many corridors I passed, Mu Fushu felt that his face wearing a hood was about to freeze, and finally arrived at Yang Weiai's courtyard.
The hall on the first floor was already brightly lit, and Yang Weiai sat on the soft chair in the middle, yawning from time to time with sleepy eyes. Yang Weng sat on her right, holding a bowl and a spoon in his hand, blowing and stirring, and inside was the bird's nest that Yang Weiai wanted to eat every morning. Cui Chongyu sat on the left, fiddling with something in his hand, which shimmered in the light from time to time.
After Mu Fushu went in, he first saluted the three of them, and then knelt down on the cushion handed over by Xizhen and kowtowed to the three of them:
"My daughter kowtows to Daddy and Auntie, and I wish Daddy and Auntie all the best in the New Year!"
Yang Weiai smiled and took out a red envelope and handed it to her, and touched her head: "Good!" Live a long life! ”
Cui Chongyu also gave her a small box in his hand, and said a little uncomfortably: "Daddy wishes you a long life and a hundred years old in the New Year." ”
Yang Weng on the side put down the bowl in his hand, also took out a red envelope, and said with a smile: "Daddy wishes you a long life and a hundred years old." ”
Mu Fushu was stunned for a moment, Daddy and Auntie wished themselves a long life, this is the rhythm of gods? Isn't that what I said for my birthday? Are they mistaken, today is really not her birthday!
Mu Fushu was ignorant and followed the three "fathers and mothers" to eat a bowl of Lantern Festival (who can tell her why she eats Lantern Festival on the first day of the new year?) Yang Weiai waved her hand and asked her to go back to sleep.
Mu Fushu took the two girls who were still hungry back to his house, and Forget Worry and Qingyan came over to have breakfast for them, and Chunmian Chunxiao also brought the boiled ginger soup.
Mu Fushu finished drinking, and opened a small box of the two red envelopes he had just received, the red envelopes were gold leaves, and the small box was full of all kinds of gemstones. She was satisfied with the "smile", those thin as cicada wings and delicate gold leaves did not like much, but that was a piece of Yang Weiai and Yang Weng's heart, although those gold leaves have the same shape, at first glance, they are from the hands of the same craftsman, but they are just given to her by two people.
Of course, such a delicate gold leaf cannot be used as ordinary gold, and it is properly put away when it is stored in the space as a handicraft.
After packing up, call the six girls in, she is very tyrant Each of them sent five taels of gold ingots, and the six girls were shocked and kowtowed, she waved her hand and shouted: "As long as you are loyal and serve the palace, you will definitely find a proper person to marry out in the future, and the dowry will also come out of the palace." ”
Since they call her His Royal Highness, Mu Fushu naturally can't save his own face, and it is also natural for him to call himself "Bengong". Sure enough, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
The six of them kowtowed again to show their loyalty. Mu Fushu was uncomfortable from the beginning to now calmly accepting that they kowtow at every turn, and it was only a few months.
Let everyone else go down, leaving only the careful hugging qin waiting to dismantle the bun, remembering the words of the two fathers, she pretended to be unintentional and said: "Do you still have adults in your family?" ”
"Yes." Baoqin hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "The slave family was bought by Steward Li, because I went late, my brother and eldest sister were bought by others and I didn't know where to go, leaving me and Grandpa, Grandma, Daddy and Auntie, and two younger sisters and one younger brother." ”
Li Shi was bought by Mu Fushu when he bought a slave in Luoyang. The elderly and children in his family were all sick, so he had no choice but to sell his body, so Mu Fushu bought their family and stayed in Luoyang to watch the house. Among the people who bought it with him were the five girls she was using now, except for Chunmian, who was the son of the Wen family, and the others had all worked in large families.
Baoqin and Si Qi's family are the sons of a merchant wife in Luoyang City, the family because of the famine for many years, life is getting more and more difficult, first selling the land and then selling people, before the wife died of illness, their family has no support, the whole family was sold. Her brother and eldest sister were older and able to work, but they were bought by others one step earlier, leaving her and her grandmother's parents and siblings, the old and the young, who suffered a lot from Renyazi.
Mu Fu went to Chang'an to ask for a servant, and gave a letter asking Steward Li to buy the girl's family around her as much as possible, Si Qi was better than her, and only she and her mother were left in the family, but they were reunited.
Forget worry and Qingyan are sisters, there is also a brother and an grandfather in the family, and they are also together, only Chunmian Chunxiao, one is the family in Wenfu, and the other is that the family has no news, and she is the only one left.
Mu Fushu looked a little depressed when he saw Baoqin, so he changed the topic and said: "Later, when I sleep, you can go back and have a look, and also give your parents a New Year's greeting, I can't say that your father will also tell you to live a long life." ”
When Baoqin heard that he could go back, he nodded happily: "Well, Daddy will definitely say it." Every New Year's greeting to Daddy and Auntie, they will wish me a long life, this is their heart for their children! ”
Mu Fushu realized that the parents here would wish their children a long life when they greeted the New Year! I don't know what to say about celebrating the birthday of my elders, this custom of the Great Sui is really strange.
Although the family members of the girls also live in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, they are in the small courtyard where the people live in the middle of nowhere, far away from Mu Fushu's courtyard. removed Mu Fushu's hair, waited for her to change her bedclothes, and hugged Qin and Si Qi, forgot worries, and Qingyan all rushed back.
Mu Fushu put down the bed tent and got into the quilt to sleep back to sleep.
San Lang got up early in the morning, took a carriage out of the palace after freshening up, and went to the eldest princess's mansion to pay New Year's greetings.
When he arrived at the princess's mansion, Yang Weng came forward to receive him, and under San Lang's inquiry, he knew that Yang Weiai and Cui Chongyu had gone to sleep and went back to sleep. Seeing Yang Weng replying calmly, San Lang only felt that his cheeks were hot, and he didn't know where to look. could only smile and congratulate Yang Weng on the New Year, and Yang Weng also gave him New Year's greetings.
Soon the two had nothing to say, San Lang was embarrassed, and Yang Weng was sleepy. San Lang simply said with a shy face that he was going to see the eldest mother.
Generally, the bride and groom can't meet a month before the wedding, but fortunately he met Yang Weng, who is an uninhibited madman, who can face his beloved wife and ex-husband and sleep back together, and said unabashedly, after listening to San Lang's request, he just nodded: "The eldest lady went back to the house to sleep, and His Royal Highness went to sleep." ”
Saburo turned around and went to Mu Fushu's house.
Before going to sleep, Mu Fushu asked everyone who had family members in the princess's mansion to go back to pay New Year's greetings, and only spring sleep and spring dawn were left in the courtyard. R1152
