Chapter Seventy-Eight: Climbing a Tree

The cook also looked at each other worriedly, and finally asked Song Jinqin, "Song Niangzi, this date is not sweet when wrapped in the filling, it is still sour." ”

"Let her be pleased!" Song Jinqin smiled lightly, and the cooks didn't ask any more.

Anyway, in the entire Northwest Hou Mansion, Xie Ying can do whatever she likes, and she is spoiled in the palm of the whole family, so she can only go with her.

Xie Ying came to the tree and immediately sighed, "Using dates to make pastries is my own intention!" ”

With that, she handed the basket to Momiji, and climbed the tree without saying a word.

"Lady, be careful!" As she spoke, a date smashed on top of her head.

The dates of this jujube tree are ripe and will fall off if you shake them gently.

"Lady, come down! It's enough to shake the tree! Momiji also looked up and called.

Xie Ying looked up, another date fell, she grabbed it in her hand, wiped it with her own clothes and took a bite, "Sweet on the top of the tree!" ”

She looked at it again, and the red dates on the top were almost eaten by the birds.

"I'll shake the branches, you can just pick them up, and you can dry them if you don't need them!" She said with a smile and began to shake the branches.

Hongying hurriedly lowered her head, "Lady, you lighten it, this date hurts a lot on the head." ”

Xie Ying gently pushed the branch, leaned on the tree, and watched the red leaves and red tassels quickly pick up half a basket, and they were happy!

"There's no wind, why is the tree shaking?"

"Who else in this house can do this?"

……

Xie Ying listened to it, and her body shook, why did my brother and King Chen come? Looking at her loose hair and dirty clothes, Wang Chen didn't think there was anything, but her brother wanted to choke her.

"Lady, you wait until we're done picking it up before you shake it!" Hongying squatted on the ground and sighed helplessly.

"Ahem," she coughed twice, "enough is enough, let's go back to the kitchen!" ”

Red Leaf stood up and walked under the tree, Red Tassel was still buried in picking it up, "Then don't you want these on the ground?" The lady clearly said that it can be sunned! ”

Xie Ying cautiously walked down two branches, "Lady, slow down!" ”

She tugged at the corners of her mouth, and if she slowed down, she would be choked by her brother.

Just as he was stretching out his hand to let Hongye catch him, his brother and King Chen called at the same time, "Erniang!" ”

"Yingying!"

Hongye hurriedly saluted, and Hongying had no choice but to stand up and retreat to Hongye's side, sweating for Xie Ying in her heart.

Xie Ying hurriedly sat down on the branch, stroked her scattered hair, and looked at them with a smile: "Why did my brother and King Chen come here?" ”

Her hands kept combing her sideburns to hide her predicament.

"How do you climb a tree?" Xie Min looked at her helplessly.

Xie Ying told the truth: "Make pastries for Daddy!" ”

Xie Min's brows furrowed suddenly, "Qin Niang just told me yesterday that you want to make steamed cakes, and you left Qin Niang in the kitchen again?" ”

She took a deep breath, and the word "again" was so choked that she couldn't speak. It is indeed not the first time Xie Ying has had a whim, and Song Niangzi covered it up for her a few times before.

Now that Song Niangzi is pregnant, her brother must be angry.

"Brother, I was wrong." She looked at them with her head hanging and watery eyes.

Xie Min gritted his teeth and didn't know what to say to his sister, so Xiao Ke smiled and relieved her, "It's just to beat dates, just for a while." ”

Xie Ying bit her lip, tried to hold back her smile, and nodded fiercely.

As soon as the two of them sang and harmonized, Xie Min sighed, "I'll wait for you at Wuya Pavilion." After saying that, he stared at Xie Ying again before turning around and leaving.

She hurriedly looked up at the book in her hand, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and when she came back to her senses, Xiao Ke had already walked under the tree and looked up at her, "Come down!" ”

He was stunned suddenly, this scene seemed familiar, it seemed that she helped Huaiyang pick up the kite that fell on the tree that year, and also distinguished a few words for him, and this little sun-like girl was remembered by him.

In the last life, when she returned to Beijing, the emperor went to pick up the Northwest Marquis, and he also went, and saw the fourteen-year-old Xie Ying on the city wall. The familiar feeling fell in his heart, he no longer wanted to see her words of defending herself as a joke, he really wanted to marry her!

"Fifth brother, fifth brother!" She called twice, and Xiao Ke came back to her senses and looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong?" ”

Xie Ying stretched out her clenched hand, and as soon as she spread it out, it was a jujube, "It's sweet, fifth brother taste it!" ”

He took it and took a bite, and Xie Ying smiled with satisfaction, waiting for him to say that the date was sweet. He said, and said, "I'm here to catch you!" ”

"Fifth brother, can you catch me?" She was a little worried about Xiao Ke's body, if she couldn't, she would be able to jump off herself.

"Hmm." He nodded.

Xie Ying stretched out her hand, "That fifth brother pulls me!" ”

Then she threw herself into Xiao Ke's arms, Xiao Ke grabbed her waist, and whispered softly in her ear on her shoulder, "I could catch it before, let alone now." ”

"Huh?"

Xie Ying landed on the ground, raised her eyes and stared at him curiously for a while, "Fifth brother, what are you talking about?" ”

"Didn't you ask me how I knew your name?" Xiao Ke also stared at her, Xie Ying became more and more curious, and as soon as she stepped forward, she was caught between the two of them by something.

She hurriedly touched it, and Wang Chen could withstand her attack, and his breath became a little heavy for a while, so he quickly let go of her, "Yingying." ”

Xie Ying didn't care about what happened to him just now, but quickly caught the red and big jujube that fell between them, "It turned out to be a jujube!" ”

Xiao Ke sighed lightly, then stretched out his hand to take it, looked at the jujube in the palm of his hand, and sneered: I almost couldn't hold it.

"Lady!" Hongye called in a low voice, and Xie Ying quickly took his hand, "I still have to help my sister-in-law!" ”

As she spoke, she ran a few steps and hurriedly turned around, "Fifth brother, when I make a jujube cake, I'll give you one!" ”

Looking at the direction in which Xie Ying ran away, Xiao Ke shook his head and sighed, and then rushed to the Boundless Pavilion where Xie Min was.

Xie Ying hurried back to the kitchen hall with great interest, and the red bean paste was ready, Xie Ying quickly asked people to wash the dates and wrap them with Song Jinqin.

"You're so happy to go and beat dates?" Song Jinqin laughed at her.

"It's not." Xie Ying whispered, and the smile on her face couldn't be stopped.

Song Jinqin immediately asked knowingly: "What is that?" ”

Xie Ying thought about it and was about to answer, but frowned slightly and muttered, "Today's Daddy's birthday, I didn't say who I wanted to invite, why is the fifth brother here?" ”

"Fifth brother?" Song Jinqin was also a little puzzled when she listened.

"It's King Chen," Xie Ying smiled embarrassedly, and quickly took her hand and asked, "Sister-in-law, why did you say he came?" ”

"I don't know this," Song Jinqin planned to tease her in her heart, "The five kings won't tell me, why don't you ask him?" ”

"Sister-in-law!" Xie Ying's cheeks became hot.
