Chapter 47: Birthday Greetings

"My father hasn't had breakfast yet," Princess Cheng'en asked, "I'm afraid that the birthday guests will come to the door at the time, so can my parents have breakfast first?" ”

Prince Li didn't answer immediately, but turned her head to look at Mu Hongshang and Mu Tieyi: "Have Tieyi and Hongshang had breakfast?" Should I use it with my grandparents? ”

The generals who smelled the chickens dancing nodded obediently together, and replied with a smile: "I have used it, thank you grandmother for your concern." ”

The children of the Mu family have always gotten up early, and they have to go to morning class with the master, and when the children of ordinary families have just gotten up, a group of babies from the military general's family have already finished their morning class and started to eat breakfast. Therefore, although they came to pay their respects to their birthdays and went out very early, for Mu Hongshang and Mu Tieyi, it was good to get up at the usual time.

"In that case," said Princess Cheng'enjun with a smile, "then it is better to let the children play together, their cousins have always been rare, and let the children of the family accompany the red clothes and iron clothes." ”

"Big brother and sister-in-law don't have to be busy with Zhang Luo," Mu Chengyi, the Duke of Anguo, said with a smile: "There are many guests at home today, and we are already busy, we are here to pay tribute to our father and mother, how can we add to the chaos." Just let Tie Yi accompany his sister, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law don't have to worry about it. ”

An Guogong is right, as soon as the hour passes, the people who worship their birthdays will come to the door one after another, many people are dragging their children and daughters, and the grandchildren of Prince Li's family are also not idle, and the young masters and young ladies of the powerful families in the DPRK and China must be accompanied by someone to visit.

It stands to reason that An Guogong's family, as a daughter and son-in-law, needs to help Prince Li's Mansion welcome guests, but Prince Li's Mansion does not dare to arrange for the Mu family to accompany guests.

Seeing that An Guogong and his wife had such an attitude, Prince Li's family did not insist, Princess Li nodded, and instructed her eldest daughter-in-law: "That's fine, the guests will arrive one after another, and it's still early before the banquet, let Aluo's family go to rest first, the children get up early in the morning, and it's okay to sleep for a while." ”

The husband and wife of the king of Cheng'en County agreed to stand up together, it seemed that the husband and wife wanted to personally send An Guogong's family to the guest house, but the princess did not stop it, but instead babbled two more sentences: "Tea and snacks should be served with some heart, leave a few clever maids to serve, and the children are not short of snacks." ”

"Mother rest assured," Princess Cheng'en County nodded and agreed: "The big kitchen will prepare twenty-four colors of dim sum in the morning, and I will send it to Sister Aluo's yard later." Iron clothes and red clothes rarely come, and I don't know what flavors these two children like, so they have prepared all kinds of snacks. ”

"Mother," Mu Hongsheng's cousin, the second daughter of the unmarried king of Cheng'en County, hurriedly added: "This year's osmanthus is good, I picked a lot of pickled ones a few days ago, and last night I ordered someone to make sweet osmanthus soup, just for my cousin and cousin to taste." ”

"Thank you cousin," Mu Hongsheng's big round eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a sweet smile: "I like to eat sweet osmanthus soup." ”

"That's just right!" The cousin immediately hurriedly spoke: "This year's osmanthus is good, I pickled a lot, bring two cans back for my cousin." ”

The opening of the second daughter of the king of Cheng'en County seemed to give inspiration to these cousins and cousins in the family, this one said that she brought white jade frost cake from home, and the other said that she sent someone to buy the signature red bean cake from Kuixing Building, the largest restaurant in Beijing, and she couldn't be more enthusiastic.

And the husband and wife of Cheng'en County accompanied An Guogong's family all the way to the guest house, and said a lot of polite words before leaving. After the husband and wife of Cheng'en County left the guest house, the smile on the face of Duchess An Guo disappeared, but she looked a little lonely, she lowered her head, sighed softly, but said nothing.

An Guogong understood his wife's appearance very well, he stretched out his hand to hold his wife's hand, and said with a smile: "It's not Ah Luo's fault, it's my fault." The Mu family is in a special situation, and after all these years of marriage, Ah Luo can't go back to her parents' house as she wants, I'm sorry for you. ”

"What nonsense." Duchess An Guo gently pushed her husband: "How can this be your fault." I grew up in the palace since I was a child, and I wasn't close to my mother's family before I got married, so what does it have to do with you. ”

"But it's not so polite as it gets......" An Guogong sighed, hugged his wife's shoulder, and patted her comfortingly: "It's me who is sorry for you." ”

Mu Tieyi and Mu Hongsheng's little brothers looked at each other quietly, and stood up from their chairs together, wanting to make room for their parents to talk to themselves. As if she hadn't noticed her father's conversation, Mu Hongshang smiled and asked directly: "Dad, we don't come to my grandfather's house on weekdays, and my grandfather's garden is beautiful, let me go out with my brother?" ”

"It can be," Duchess An Guo immediately raised her head and nodded: "But don't be naughty, this is not at home, don't climb high or low." Tie Yi took care of his sister, and didn't go to crowded places. ”

"Mother, we are not children anymore, you know," Mu Tieyi replied with a smile, "You can rest assured." ”

"It's true that it's not a child," Duchess An Guo glanced at Mu Hongshang with a smile: "But I haven't seen how sensible you are." The red dress is so thick that the sky is high, and it ...... in April."

"Mother~!" Mu Hongsheng immediately stepped forward, blinking her big eyes and showing a flattering smile: "You've been studying for half a year, aren't you tired?" I know it's wrong, and I won't do anything that worries you in the future, so you can rest assured! ”

"Mother, don't worry," Mu Tieyi also looked like a big bag: "I look at my sister, don't let her be naughty, if she climbs high and low again, I will beat her." ”

"Little rabbit cub, you are really good at it, you dare to beat your sister," An Guogong raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Is it itchy skin?" is such a big person, and his ability is not good, but he will bully his sister. ”

"How can I!" Mu Tieyi immediately expressed indignation at his father's eccentricity: "I'm just talking about it!" Besides, if Hongshang is really disobedient, then you can't stop her. ”

"You have to have the ability to control it," An Guogong snorted coldly without giving face: "I'm going to the north next year, and I can't hide from my sister's little grappler, it's really getting more and more 'promising'." ”

"I'm letting my sister," Mu Tieyi glanced at Mu Hongsheng, who was smiling, and looked very unconvinced: "If I don't let her, she has this ability, and it's a dream to catch me." ”

"Your sister is only twelve," An Guogong unceremoniously exposed his son's old bottom: "When you were twelve years old, you were beaten by the levy clothes, and you had no power to fight back." Okay, okay, I'm too lazy to look at you, take my sister out to play, don't make noise here, I'll rest with your mother for a while, and wait for the table to sit outside, I'm afraid I'll be tired all day. ”
