Chapter 214

It snowed heavily outside all night, and the next day it became a white world.

No matter how heavy the snow is, Fu Yuchen still has to do what he should do, get up early to freshen up.

Xu Cancan also got up, let Fu Yuchen sit in front of the makeup mirror, she combed Fu Yuchen's long hair, put on a lacquer veil, and took a royal blue satin black fox cloak to help him tie it, and then stood in front of the mirror to admire the beautiful man.

Fu Yuchen looked down at Xu Cancan, with a hint of interest in his phoenix eyes: Xu Cancan got up in the morning for the first time to wait for him!

He lowered his head and kissed Xu Cancan's lips, and said in a low voice, "Wait for me to come back at night!" ”

With that, he left.

Fu Yuchen entered the palace to serve the sick, leaving Xu Cancan alone and couldn't sleep, so he ordered Zhu Yan to hug Fu Rui, who had already woken up, and played with Fu Rui for a long time, and the mother and son snuggled together head to head and slept together.

When Xu Cancan woke up, it was almost noon.

After grooming and dressing up, Xu Cancan began to deal with housework.

She sat on the brocade couch, holding a cup of tea in her hand and sipping it slowly, listening to the replies of the people below.

Zhu Yan and Biyun were cultivated by her as big housekeepers, so one left and one right stood next to the brocade couch.

Mama Chen and the other four mammas have already finished handling the trivial matters, and the rest are some things that need to be handled by Xu Cancan.

Mama Dong came out of the queue and took a book of relatives and began to go back to the Lantern Festival to give gifts.

As soon as Xu Cancan heard the Lantern Festival ceremony, he remembered Fu Yuchen's group of aunts and sisters who were close to each other, and felt that they were in trouble, so he immediately instructed Mama Dong: "Mama has prepared it and brought it to Zhu Yan to see!" "It's just some rituals, according to the custom of the former crown princess, and she is impatient to worry about these things.

Mama Dong replied "yes" and retreated.

The next thing is Mama Chen.

She replied to the arrangement of the Lantern Festival banquet, Xu Cancan called Zhu Yan to come over and listen, and occasionally if there was something inappropriate, she would keep it in mind first, and then talk to Mama Chen later.

After Mama Chen replied, Xu Cancan looked at Zhu Yan, Zhu Yan immediately bowed, pointed out the place that should be corrected, and discussed it with Mama Chen, and then the princess was relieved and lined up.

Mama Chen stepped back, and Mama Yin stepped forward to report on the selection of two of the second-class maids to make up for the big maids, and the selection of ten third-class little maids from Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing.

Xu Cancanwu was holding a teacup and drinking tea, and Biyun had already stepped forward to listen and consult with Mama Yin.

After Biyun and Mama Yin finished discussing, they replied to Xu Cancan: "Princess, the slave maid and Mama Yin have selected four second-class maids, please take a look at them and choose two of them." ”

Xu Cancan originally wanted Biyun and Mama Yin to choose, but then when he thought that the big girl wanted to get along with him every day, he really had to choose one that he looked pleasing to, so he said, "Mama Yin will bring the four of them in!" ”

Mama Yin went out to call the four second-class maids, and Mama Hu took the worship box and stepped forward to report: "Princess, the people who ordered someone to send the worship post today are Princess Yuming, Mrs. Yu, the eldest and youngest grandmothers of the foreign family, and the eldest princess of Muyang......

Xu Cancan couldn't help but sigh when she heard this, the people who still came to see her after such a heavy snowfall really saw her, and said: "I am free in the afternoon, let Princess Yuming, Mrs. Yu, and the grandmother of the foreign family come in the afternoon, and the rest of the people will wait for me to be free!" ”

Hu's mother replied "yes" and went down. She has screened the posts that came to see the princess, those that don't matter, but the familiar ones who want to come to greet and stammer have been screened by her, Rao is so there are still many people who the princess wants to see, fortunately, the princess herself will also screen one or two, and not everyone will go to see it.

As soon as Hu's mother came out of the main hall, she saw Mama Yin come in with four maids, among which the red whisk, brown clothes and gray hui were common to her, so she smiled and said, "Mama doesn't hold an umbrella when she comes over?" ”

Mama Yin was very gentle, and when she saw that people didn't laugh or speak, she immediately smiled and whispered: "I walked along the verandah when I entered the inner courtyard, and there was no snow!" ”

Mother Hu smiled, then took an umbrella with her little maid, put on high-soled galoshes, and walked out of the corridor cleaned by the mother-in-law. She has been married and has a husband and children, her husband is on an errand in the Guogong Mansion, and her son is a captain in the prince's army, and her life is quite nourishing, and the grandmothers who have never married in their lives and have no children and only rely on the princess are still different. In the future, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will ascend the throne as the emperor, and these grandmothers will follow the princess into the palace to wait, and she is afraid that she will go home to enjoy the blessings!

Xu Cancan looked at the four second-class maids standing in front of her with a smile, among them, Red Whisk, Brown Yi and Gray Hui had been waiting for her for a while, and she knew it.

Red Whisk is very patient, and used to be in charge of making all kinds of soup for her; Brown Yi is taciturn, has a good needlework, and specializes in making needlework for the imperial grandson in the west wing; Gray Hui is a lively character, and she opens the curtain in front of the main hall every day, but she is also happy and very eye-catching.

The other maid was a little eye-catching, looking at the goose egg face and big eyes, quite classical beauty, and her name was Red Fern.

Xu Cancan looked at it, and felt a little pity for the jade, so he had to ask for it, so he instructed Mama Yin: "Bring all four of them up, you can find someone else to make up for the lack of four second-class maids!" "With Zhu Yan, Biyun, Xuan Bing and Vermilion Bird, there are eight first-class girls in her room.

Mama Yin curtsied and replied "yes".

Hongfu and the other four people hurriedly curtshowed their knees and saluted: "Thank you, Princess!" ”

Biyun took the four first-class maidens who were newly brought up to teach and arrange errands in the east wing, and Xu Cancan took Zhu Yan to the west living room to see the imperial grandson.

The two nurses Sun Kai's family and Han He's family were sitting on the edge of the bed doing needlework, and the eldest girl Xuan Bing sat on the bed and looked at the imperial grandson, and when she saw the princess coming in, she hurriedly put the needlework in her hand in the needlework dustpan, got up and curtsied with Xuan Bing: "The slave has seen the princess!" ”

Xu Cancan smiled and bowed slightly, and said, "Has the imperial grandson ever drunk water?" ”

Xuan Bing was in charge of the imperial grandson together with Zhu Yan, and hurriedly replied when he heard this: "Crown princess, the imperial grandson has already drunk water and urinated just now, and just changed a clean diaper!" ”

Xu Cancan had already walked to the side of the bed, she picked up her son and kissed her several times: "Changle, mother will take you outside for a walk!" ”

Zhu Yan hurriedly said: "Crown princess, it's too cold outside......"

Xu Cancan ordered the nurse to wrap the imperial grandson and put on a hat, and then said: "As long as you wrap it thickly, it's okay!" "If my son stays indoors in this warm room, he is actually more likely to get sick.

When he was about to leave the city, Xu Cancan ordered Xuan Bing, who stayed behind: "Watch the little maids open the windows for ventilation, and then close the windows after two quarters of an hour!" ”

Xuan Bing replied "yes", curtsied, and watched everyone gather around the crown princess and the imperial grandson.

Xu Cancan hugged Fu Rui, who was tightly wrapped, in front of the railing under the corridor, his face was a little cold, but his brain was very clear and his lungs were much more comfortable.

She looked at the heavy snow that was falling like goose feathers, and whispered to her son: "Changle, you will be more than a year old by this time next year, you should be able to call your mother, right?" ”

Mama Li smiled and said, "Crown Princess, the imperial grandson will be two years old by this time next year!" ”

Xu Cancan knew that she was saying it according to the age of the void, and did not refute it, and looked at the snowy yard with a smile.

The poplar forest, bamboo forest, gardenia tree, and pavilion in the inner courtyard are covered with a thick layer of snow, and only the railing of the corridor is clean because the maid has been wiping it.

Xu Cancan glanced down and found that the branches and leaves of the privet in the flower pot under the steps were holding clumps of snow, which looked like they were about to be buried by the snow, so he instructed Mama Li: "Mama will take someone to move these privets to the porch except for the snow!" ”

Mama Li replied "yes" and immediately went down with a few maids.

After lunch, Xu Cancan was taking a rattle to tease Fu Rui to play, and Princess Yuming came with Lan Ying'er.

Lan Ying'er saw Fu Rui, who was white and chubby, and she liked it very much, and went to the side of the brocade couch to look at Fu Rui.

Zhu Yan and Xuan Bing were afraid that she would not know the importance of a four or five-year-old girl, so they stood aside, their eyes did not leave the imperial grandson at all, and they looked at it strictly.

Princess Yuming has lived a very lonely year this year, only the mother and daughter are accompanied by each other, and there are no relatives to deal with, so she has a lot of free time, she wants to do some needlework for the imperial grandson, but she is afraid that the people in the imperial palace will not trust her and will not wear it for the imperial grandson, thinking about it, she embroidered twelve four-season flower embroidery paintings and sent them over.

Xu Cancan took this stack of embroidery paintings, looked at them carefully, and felt that the embroidery was very good, and what was even better was that Princess Yuming embroidered flowers and plants that were used in "Lisao" to refer to people's noble character, such as orchids, orchids and chrysanthemums.

She was grateful in her heart, silently took Princess Yuming's hand, and found that there were many scars on her fingertips, so she immediately sighed and said, "Sister, I have received your love, and you must not let yourself be hurt in the future!" ”

Princess Yuming nodded repeatedly. Like her daughter Lan Ying'er, she likes to be grateful to Xu Cancan in her heart, but Princess Yuming has been clumsy in words since she was a child, and she doesn't know how to express it, so she uses her best female celebrity to speak for herself.

Xu Cancan instructed Suzaku to put away the embroidery paintings and hang them in her reception room in the east wing, and ordered Hongfu to take the little maid to serve all kinds of delicate snacks, and talked about the Lantern Festival and other lantern festivals with Princess Yuming.

Princess Yuming heard that the Lantern Festival was going to be held in Jinmingyuan, and she was very yearning, and said: "In the past, the Lantern Festival was held, and the concubine body had also been seen on the Yanqing Gate with the saint, and I only felt that the fire trees and silver flowers were very lively, and men and women, young and old, had a lot of fun!" Because she was not favored, she also had the opportunity to accompany her, and then she never followed her father to Yanqing Gate to watch the Lantern Festival, and this idea of good memory is also a little desolate.

Xu Cancan saw that there was a trace of remembrance in her eyes, and said with a smile: "I have an idea, my sister will take the little county lord over in the car early in the morning of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, play here for a day, and then take the car with me to Jinmingyuan, okay?" ”

"It's really good," Princess Yuming said with a busy smile, "It's just troublesome for the crown princess!" ”

Xu Cancan smiled: "With you with me, I won't be lonely anymore!" ”

As he was talking, Cui's hugged his daughter Sister Xu, and came with the nurse and the personal maid with Hu's mother. As soon as she came in and saw Xu Cancan and Princess Yuming talking, she smiled and curtsied: "I've seen the princess, I've seen the princess!" ”

Xu Cancan smiled and said, "Why should your own family be polite!" ”

Biyun gave Gray Hui a look, and Gray Hui stepped forward and led Cui Shi to sit down on the circle chair on the west side of the brocade couch.

Xu Cancan saw that the eldest sister-in-law was holding the eldest sister in her arms, so he said: "Quickly bring the eldest sister over and put it together with Changle!" ”

Cui Shi got up with a smile and put the eldest sister and the imperial grandson side by side on the brocade couch, and stood on one side to watch the little county lord tease the eldest sister and the imperial grandson to play. After being told by her husband, she thought about it for a long time and regretted what she had done in the past, so she decided to hug the crown princess's thigh and wait to accompany the princess. At this time, Cui's looked at the eldest sister and the imperial grandson together, looking at the pink makeup and jade jade, but he would never think about marriage again.

As the three of them talked, they talked about the princess's responsibility as a matchmaker.

Cui Shi heard that the crown princess had become a middleman, and gave the third girl to General Xue Ying to fill the house, and there were still three jade girls left to be in the boudoir, among which the fourth girl was fourteen years old this year, so he smiled and joked: "Princess, there are people in our relatives who are compatible with the fourth girl of the jade!" ”

Xu Cancan was very interested when he heard this: "Whose son?" ”

Cui Shi smiled: "It is Feng Qing, the second son of Aunt Feng's family, who is fourteen years old this year, born very well, and is still a classmate of Brother Yichun or Guozijian, but is it suitable for Miss Yusi?" It's just that the military generals of the Jade Mansion were born, and I don't know if the four girls of the Jade Mansion are willing to marry into the civil official family! ”

Xu Cancan thought for a while, and then said, "Wait a while, Mrs. Yu will come over, I'll ask her!" ”

It didn't take long for Mrs. Yu to come over with Miss Yu, Miss Yu No. 5, and Miss Yu No. 6, and Miss Yu San was embarrassed to come over because she had decided to get married, so she stayed at home.

When their mother and daughter saluted the crown princess, Cui Shi watched from the side, and found that the four girls of Yusi had handsome eyes and eyebrows and looked forward to Shenfei, coupled with the hairpin rings, the precious clothes were rich, and she was obviously pampered, so she secretly praised herself.

The eldest sister and Fu Rui were hungry, so they were taken by Zhu Yan Xuanbing to the west living room to be fed and slept by the nurse. Lan Ying'er was a little bored, so she coquettishly told Xu Cancan and made a long-planned request: "Crown Princess, Ying'er wants to see Brother Shui!" ”

Xu Cancan couldn't help laughing and said, "I'll ask Mama to take you to Brother Shui." "Shui Han happens to be in the house today, let Lan Ying'er pester him.

Mama Li was ordered to go with Lan Ying'er's maid to the front courtyard to find the water cold.

Seeing that they were gone, Xu Cancan joked with Princess Yuming: "Sister, do you want me to give the little county lord to General Shui?" ”

Princess Yuming also smiled: "This girl, seeing that General Shui is handsome, she has been chatting when she returns to the mansion!" ”

Everyone laughed.

Xu Cancan asked Mrs. Yu with a smile: "Madam, would you like to bring the girl to the civil official's house?" ”

Before Madame Jade could answer, Biyun stepped forward and bowed to the three jade girls, saying, "The three girls will go with the slave maid to see the daffodils cultivated by the crown princess!" ”

The three jade girls were originally from a military general's family and did not pay attention to avoidance, but when they saw Biyun say so, they smiled and went out with Biyun.

When Mrs. Yu saw her daughter leaving, she asked with a smile: "Princess, I don't know which son?" ”

Xu Cancan was pleased that she spoke heartily, so he looked at Cui's.

Cui Shi immediately said: "It is Feng Qing, the second son of the Feng Yuan of Tai Hospital, who is just fourteen years old this year, and he is very handsome, and the fifth son of my family is still a classmate of Guozijian!" "Xu Wugongzi is Xu Yichun's ranking among the brothers and sisters of the Xu family.

Mrs. Feng was a little moved when she heard this, but it was a matter of her daughter's life, she was still very cautious, and said with a smile: "Wait for the concubine to go back and discuss it with my master, and then call back to the crown princess!" ”

Xu Cancan felt reasonable, so he didn't say anything.

Shui Han was sorting out the paperwork in the bedroom, and when he heard Lan Ying'er's voice calling "Brother Shui" outside, he was immediately embarrassed.

After a moment of silence, he continued to sort out the paperwork.

Mama Chen took the maid to serve all kinds of delicate snacks and rock sugar pear water, everyone was eating snacks, and the newly added second-class maid Ziying came in to report: "Princess, General Shui has sent the little county lord back!" ”

Xu Cancan saw that the house was full of female dependents, and it was not convenient to let Shui Han in, so he said, "Let Mama Li bring the little princess in!" ”

Shui Han bowed through the curtain and bowed on the porch and retreated.

Since the first day of the Lunar New Year, he came with the generals to kowtow to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, he has not seen the Crown Princess again, and it is good to be able to salute through the curtain.

In the evening, when the guests had left, Xu Cancan took the recipe that his father wrote for Fu Yuchen and instructed Mama Chen: "Dinner is lighter, cook three vegetarian dishes - roasted bean curd, stir-fried green beans and garlic choy sum, and then make three meat dishes - steamed sea bass, stewed pork ribs with radish and roasted mutton." The staple food is to prepare all kinds of multigrain steamed buns, and then boil a pot of millet porridge. ”

Because Fu Yuchen's physique was too weak, Xu Shunhe not only pricked him every five and ten days, but also wrote a recipe for him to make food supplements.

Mama Chen wrote it down, answered "yes" and retreated.

After dinner was ready, Mama Chen came to ask if she wanted to set the meal, and Xu Cancan said, "Wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come back!" ”

The night was silent, and the snow had stopped, but Fu Yuchen had not returned.

Xu Cancan learned that it was the deputy captain Yuan Shenyu who followed Fu Yuchen into the palace today, so he ordered Fu Yang and Shui Han to ride horses to the palace to find Fu Yuchen.

Huang Lang heard the report and hurriedly came out to see them: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just left the palace after dark!" ”

Shui Han Fu Yang immediately looked at each other, and a trace of anxiety appeared on his face.

Shui Han arched his hand to Huang Lang, and then said goodbye to Fu Yang and left.

He rode on his horse and ordered Fu Yang in a deep voice: "You go to Kaifeng Mansion to see Lord Yang quickly, let him order someone to block all the city gates, I will go back to the mansion to pay tribute to the crown princess, and then I will do it!" ”

Fu Yang immediately took the two little servants Pegasus away.

Shui Han also beat his horse and galloped away in the direction of the Taigong with the guards who followed.
