Qiao Fengzhi explained: "The two of them are the cooks I specially invited, although the craftsmanship is good, but after all, it is the taste of the south, this is also a helpless thing, you should get used to it after a few more days." ”

Yao Duran nodded and sat at the table in the courtyard with Qiao Fengzhi. Fuquan smelled the fragrance of the food, and also ran into the kitchen to help serve the food, a few times back and forth, the round table was filled with dishes, and the wine was also on the table, several people sat down, eating, drinking, chatting, and happy until late at night, until Fuquan lit the lanterns in the courtyard, until Qiao Fengzhi got drunk and said love words to her in the candlelight of the courtyard......

On this day, this scene is a scene that Yao Duran has never forgotten. Even later, she became Huo Jingcheng's favorite concubine, living in the Golden House Palace, washing geltin in hot springs every day, eating eight treasures and jade food, wearing brocade clothes, and always when she was awake or dreamed back, her soul flew to this day again and again, and flew to this courtyard located in the name of "Hehuan Lane".

……

The Northern Expedition of the East Palace was a triumphant success, and it left a brilliant mark in the history books of the Southern Qian. Emperor Qian's dragon face was happy, and the next day he held a celebration banquet in the palace, with hundreds of officials attending and monarchs and ministers rejoicing.

Yun Ce and his apprentices attended and praised endlessly. The master and apprentice assisted in the Northern Expedition, won the emperor's heart, and were in the limelight in Beijing for a while.

The palace feast was grand, starting at noon and continuing until now. Yao Duran was alone at home and looked at the rooms one by one.

The main house they lived in was very spacious, with three rooms, and the inner room on this side of the courtyard was naturally a bedroom, with a complete set of furniture, a large bed, a dressing table, a wardrobe, etc., all made of sandalwood, and the price was very expensive. The outer room is the hall, there is a bookcase, a multi-treasure, a beauty couch, a bent leg square table, and a bookcase, etc., in addition to these large pieces, the decoration of small pieces is countless, the room looks antique, exquisite and elegant.

The other room is used for changing clothes and bathing, and the eye is a carved maid screen, behind which is a large bath tub......

Yao Duran said in his heart, this room was really complete by him, and it was very gorgeous.

Fuquan and Lu Yan live in the left and right matching rooms respectively, and as for the two cooks, they only need to come to make meals during the meal, and they don't have to stay in the courtyard at other times.

In the middle of the night, the palace banquet was dispersed, Qiao Fengzhi returned half drunk, he didn't drink to the end, and he asked a few people to accompany him to drink in the courtyard, so the master and servant laughed and tossed for half the night.

Early the next morning, Qiao Feng came back from the court and saw that Yao Duran had woken up, so he sat on the edge of the bed and stroked her long hair with a doting face, and said softly: "Get up when you wake up, I invited a Lang Zhong after the next court, and I am waiting in the hall at the moment, wait for you to change your clothes and let him give you a pulse." ”

Yao Duran was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what he was talking about. She nodded, and called for Lu Yan to change her clothes and wash her.

When everything was ready, the Lang Zhong carried the medicine box into the bedroom to check her pulse. In the end, Lao Langzhong touched the goatee on his chin, and said in a slow and serious tone: "If the old man is diagnosed well, this lady should have been taking child avoidance medicine for a period of time before, right?" ”

When Qiao Feng heard this, he said nervously: "What's wrong?" Could it be that there is something wrong with the child-avoiding medicine? ”

Lao Langzhong shook his head slowly: "It's not a big deal, it's just that taking the child avoidance medicine for a long time will hurt the root, and some women will take it for three years or two years, and they don't need to take it again in this life." Fortunately, this lady has been taking it for a short time, and she can come over with a dose of medicine. ”

The tension on Qiao Fengzhi's face relaxed, and Yao Duran was also relieved, she could still be born......

"Old gentleman, then I would like to ask you to prescribe some good symptomatic medicines, regardless of the price, only to say that they are effective." Qiao Fengzhi solemnly instructed, Lao Langzhong nodded, and when he arrived at Qiao Fengzhi's bookcase in the hall, he wrote for a long time and finally prescribed a prescription. Qiao Fengzhi paid the money and sent Lang Zhong away, and then called Laifu Quan to run errands on the street and grab medicine according to the prescription.

Seeing that he acted suddenly today, Yao Duran came to the hall and asked, "Fengzhi, why is it so sudden today?" ”

Qiao Fengzhi's expression was as usual, and he said, "It's nothing, sooner or later, I have to take a look, naturally the sooner the better." ”

Yao Duran stared at him for a while, and said, "Don't hide it from me, we just agreed yesterday, be honest with each other, and don't hide things." ”

Qiao Fengzhi was seen through by her again, and couldn't help but smile dotingly: "I really can't hide anything from you, just tell you." As for me, I learned this morning that Du Yan's wife had successfully given birth to a daughter, so I was very envious in my heart, and I also hoped that you could give me a son and a half daughter. ”

"Mrs. Du gave birth to a daughter?" Yao Duran couldn't help but be full of envy, that woman who was not smart enough and not sensible enough was blessed enough, and she had both children and daughters, what more could her husband ask for?

"Yes, His Highness's people sent a letter from Mingju City to report this, so I naturally know about it." Qiao Fengzhi said, and suddenly walked towards her with a wicked smile.

Yao Duran looked at his expression and retreated with a smile: "You...... What are you doing here? ”

He swooped down and hugged her, and said with a smile: "Naturally, I have a baby with you." ”

The two rolled onto the bed, and when they were laughing together, Yao Duran's stomach suddenly made a "cooing" sound, Qiao Fengyi listened to it, and pulled her up with a smile: "That's it, let's let you have breakfast first." ”

The courtyard is fragrant, Yao Duran is sitting at the round table in the courtyard, holding a bowl of ten-spiced chicken soup, and when he is concentrating on dealing with the baked cakes and side dishes on the table, Qiao Fengzhi on the opposite side suddenly said seriously: "Dye'er, the day after tomorrow, June 16, it is appropriate to marry, we get married, okay?" ”

The chicken soup in Yao Duran's mouth suddenly forgot to swallow, she stared at him for a long time, the handsome face in front of her smiled softly and firmly, Yao Duran finally smiled, and there were tears in the smile.

……

June 16, it is advisable to get married.

Their wedding ceremony was extremely simple, there were no guests in the hall, no gongs and drums, only a pair of red-clothed people under the witness of Yun Ce, worshiped the high hall, worshiped heaven and earth, and finally worshiped husband and wife. After the ceremony, the two wrote a wedding post: Happy today's red rope is tied, and the beads are perfectly matched. Bu Ta Nian is white-headed forever, Gui Fu Lanxin.

The date is stated: June 16, 23rd year of Yongxi.

In the end, the two wrote their names on the red wedding sticker.

The courtyard is quiet and simple, the spring and the scenery are bright, the weeping willows on the top of the head are like a cover, and the flowers in the fence are fragrant. Qiao Fengzhi set up a banquet in the courtyard, and with this situation, it was the most leisurely and comfortable. Although there were few guests today, there was no coldness at all. Fuquan lit a string of firecrackers, covered his ears with a smile in the deafening sound of joy, and sent food to the round table in the courtyard one by one, the two cooks in the kitchen were very busy, Yun Ce sat at the round table, smiling and shaking the fan, while looking at the yard, and praised Qiao Fengzhi for his good vision, elegance, and understanding life.

Everyone was smiling, Yao Duran looked at the past, and his eyes were full of smiling faces, so warm and friendly, so happy. Then, Qiao Fengzhi said something in her ear, and she laughed too.

He said, Dye'er, heaven and earth are the proof, no matter when and where, for the husband and you, there must be one heart and one road.

……

The courtyard is full of flowers, and the years are quiet.

On this day, Qiao Fengxia brought back a big wolf dog for the first time, the dog was born strong, the coat was dark, the limbs were powerful, the tail wagged vigorously, and barked when he saw people, looking like a tiger and a tiger.

Yao Duran was scared when he was called by it on the swing in the courtyard, and the green diaphragm also hid behind Yao Duran. Qiao Fengzhi pointed at it and smiled: "Don't look at its strong body and fierce screaming, it doesn't bite people, it's just bluffing to scare people." ”

Yao Duran looked at the wolf dog that had a false appearance, and couldn't help laughing: "Where did you get this dog?" ”

"Naturally, I bought it, and I will be tied to the courtyard to watch the house in the future, there are few people in our yard and it is quiet, and there are a few dog barks and it is more lively." Qiao Fengzhi said, squatted down and patted the dog's head, and said: "Iron bones, I will use your iron bones to protect my family in the future, you know?" ”

With a "poof", Yao Duran laughed: "It's ...... It's called Iron Bone? ”

Qiao Fengzhi also felt funny, and said: "Yes, the owner of the dog said that its bones are hard, once it slept lazily on the side of the road, but a carriage came and accidentally pressed it over its legs, so that its legs were not broken, plus it loves to eat bones the most, and the bones are almost inseparable from the mouth, so it is called Iron Bone." ”

"I see." Yao Duran looked at the iron bones seriously.

Fu Quan smiled and said: "Madam, touch it, this iron bone really doesn't bite, it's very good." ”

"Okay, I'll try." Yao Duran also squatted down to touch it, and when Iron Bone saw her approaching, he bared his teeth and grinned fiercely, but the closer Yao Duran's hand became, the more daring it became, and finally blinked his eyes and shrank his head to let Yao Duran caress him.

"Giggle......" Yao Duran became more and more happy the more he looked at it: "This iron bone is really loud and rainy, and it will pretend to scare people." ”

Several people laughed for a while, and Qiao Fengzhi said: "Fuquan, go to the kitchen to find a few bones, and one of you throws one to it, and it will remember you, and it won't call you when I see you in the future." ”

Fu Quan found a few meat bones from the kitchen according to his words, and one of the two masters and two servants threw one to it, and the iron bones really wagged their tails and fluttered around, and they didn't eat any of them first, which made several people laugh constantly. In the end, Qiao Fengzhi asked Fuquan to tie the iron bone to the door, and the iron bone was full of food and drink, lazy and lazy, and lay on his stomach softly.

It was almost lunchtime when the two cooks came and got busy in the kitchen. Qiao Fengzhi entered the room and sat behind the bookcase to handle business.

Yao Duran called Fuquan, took out a purse from his bosom and handed it to him.

Fuquan looked at the purse, didn't know what it meant, smiled and scratched his head: "Madam, this is ......"

Yao Duran sighed with emotion: "Fuquan, on the day I got married to Fengzhi, you were drunk, and you hid in the corner of the courtyard alone at night, crying secretly with the hair that Su Chuan gave you, I saw that your handkerchief wrapped in hair was not appropriate, so I embroidered a purse for you these days, and embroidered your and Su Chuan's names on it, you will put that hair in this purse in the future, it is much safer than your handkerchief." ”

When Fuquan heard this, he was embarrassed at first, and gradually, his eyes were gloomy. He took the purse with both hands, and after looking at it, he found that in addition to the names of the two of them, there was also a line of small characters embroidered on the purse: The ends of the world are not separated.

Fuquan's eyes were red with emotion, and without saying a word, he took out the handkerchief in his arms, carefully put the twisted hair in it into his purse, and then said movingly: "Madam, you have a heart, Fuquan thank you!" ”
