Two days later, Qin Che sent a letter to report the good news, Qin's grandmother Wu gave birth to a girl in mid-March, the size was safe, and the child was named Qin Tong, Sister Tong.

Chai and Xu Lanyin were both happy and hurriedly prepared gifts. It just so happened that Xu Lanzhou was going back to Ningzhou Mansion the next day to test Wu Xiucai, so let him bring it with him. Originally, the Chai family wanted to accompany Xu Lanzhou to Ningzhou Mansion, but Xu Lanyin came to the capital because of his mother and son, so he asked the Lu family to bring someone to accompany him back.

In a blink of an eye, on the tenth day of the first month of April, Xu Lanyin brought Chai Zixiao and Min Jia to Xu's house to play. At noon, Yinuo personally cooked for them and boiled sour plum soup.

Originally, I wanted to invite Li, Ma, and Chai Jingjing, but was stopped by Chai. The daughter-in-law of a big family is not free, and it is not easy to visit casually.

After dinner, at the request of several children, Xu Lanyin took them to Xinyun Teahouse, and also asked Qian's mother to take Zhao Mingxi with her.

Today, when the tea house was full, I took them to the backyard to play. Zhao Mingxi, who had been sleeping, also woke up, staring around with big black grape-like eyes, which was very strange.

There are also two tables of people playing chess under the flower stand in the backyard, which are Chai Juma and Chai Jun's grandson, as well as the old lady of Zhou and the fourth prince Liu Zhaohou. They all play chess, but the old plays against the old, and the young plays against the young.

Liu Zhaohou saw Xu Lanyin and stopped playing chess, got up and said with a smile, "Sister Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you very much." ”

Liu Zhaohou has grown a lot taller, and his facial features have also grown, but his eyes have not changed, they are still clear and clean, and his smile is crooked like a crescent moon.

Those words were inappropriate for other men, he said that no one went to his heart, and everyone present automatically chose not to hear.

He also wanted to pull Xu Lanyin's sleeve, and Chai Jun, who came over, quietly stuffed a piece of pastry into his hand.

When she met this old acquaintance, Xu Lanyin was also very happy.

Xu Lanyin curtsied his knees and smiled, "Young Master Liu, it's a coincidence." ”

Outside? It's not good to call Liu Zhaohou the fourth prince.

Liu Zhaohou said humbly, "It's not a coincidence, I heard Cousin Chai say that you came to the capital?" I'm here to see if I can meet you. I listen to Little Star? Is the fried milk you make particularly delicious? I want to eat it too. He said admiringly, "Sister Xu is so capable, is the milk thin?" You can also fry it into cakes. ”

Xu Lanyin especially wants to have a good relationship with him now? "Okay, I'll have someone go and see if there's milk or goat's milk in the kitchen?" I'll do it right here for you. ”

Is the meal served in the kitchen of the tea house a snack and some pasta? There should be milk and these things.

She went over again and bowed to Chai Juma and Old Master Zhou. Although she didn't go to the Zhou Mansion? But the generous gift Zhao Wu had already sent it before.

Mrs. Zhou smiled? "I heard Lan Zhou and Xiao Niuniu say that the dishes you make are delicious? The old man will have a cheeky taste tonight. ”

The firewood horse stroked his beard and smiled? "It's not that I'm boasting, my granddaughter is ingenious, she can go to the hall, play the kitchen, and play a good chess hand."

Xu Lanyin had to laugh and laugh? "As long as Lord Zhou doesn't dislike it? I'm going to ask someone to buy some ingredients? In the evening, Liu Gongzi, the old lady, grandfather, and cousin were invited to eat here. ”

How many people are talking and laughing? I heard Liu Zhaohou's startled voice, "Is this Sister Xu's son, why does he look like me like this?" More like me than my brother's two sons. Could he be my son? ”

This frightened everyone, and they didn't want to hear it. Chai Jun hurriedly said, "Liu Gongzi said carefully, how can my little nephew look like you." ”

Liu Zhaohou was reluctant, bent his legs and was level with Liu Mingxi in Qian's mother's arms, learning Liu Mingxi's eyes to stare at him, pouting, and opening his mouth slightly, "Cousin, don't believe it, look at it, do we look like each other?" ”

Chai Jun was also a little blind. Ignoring the relatively different face shapes and eyebrows between the two, they do have some similarities, especially the eyes and mouth.

Xu Lanting, Xu Lanyue, and Min Jia were all unhappy, and said in unison, "Xixi is not your son, when my eldest sister (my Aunt Xu) gave birth to Xixi, we were all at home. ”

Liu Zhaohou didn't listen to the words of those children, and said, "He looks like me, I like him, I like him more than I like Sister Xu, I want to give him a meeting gift." As he spoke, he took a piece of the best jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Zhao Mingxi.

Zhao Mingxi also seemed to like Liu Zhaohou very much, giggled a few times, took the jade pendant and put it in his mouth to gnaw, and a silver thread flowed down the corner of his mouth. He smiled, his round eyes curled again.

When Liu Zhaohou saw it, he also smiled and bent his eyes, letting these people see.

Two pairs of crooked eyes are more alike.

Mrs. Zhou looked at Zhao Mingxi and thought of Liu Zhaohou's childhood. At that time, he looked smart and smart, where did he think that he would grow up like this. The old man's heart softened, he laughed a few times, and said kindly, "Little Si, there are thousands of people in this world, and there are many people who look alike. It can't be said that a person's head has to be like you, it's your son. ”

Liu Zhaohou nodded like a good boy and said "oh".

Chai Juma also said, "My great-grandson is not only a little similar to Xiaosi, but also a little like my great-grandson. ”

Everyone looked at Zhao Mingxi and Chai Zixiao again, they were indeed a bit similar, they were more similar than Zhao Mingxi and his own uncle and aunt, and the embarrassing atmosphere was finally resolved.

Xu Lanyin asked people to move two more small tables out and let a few children play there, and she took the chess pieces into the kitchen.

There was still a small half pot of milk left in the kitchen, and Xu Lanyin asked Cai Mai to buy some ingredients, she made a few small dishes, and then asked people to go to the restaurant to buy a few big dishes.

The weather gradually darkened, and the tea guests in the tea house left one after another, lighting up all the lanterns under the backyard porch to illuminate the courtyard brightly.

Xu Lanyin made fried milk, pineapple pancakes, squirrel fish, family portraits, shrimp ball soup, and bought braised pork, roast goose, anchovy shark fin and other dishes in the restaurant, and also bought wine.

The banquet was placed in the backyard wing, and Xu Lan did not allow the smell of wine and meat in the tea house.

Liu Zhaohou, Mrs. Zhou, Chai Juma, and Chai Jun drank at one table, Xu Lanyin led several children to a table, and Wang Sanni personally stood behind to serve.

Xu Lan's fried milk, squirrel fish, and pineapple pancakes were warmly sought after, especially the sweet-loving Liu Zhaohou and a few children, who kept saying that they were delicious.

Liu Zhaohou turned his head sideways and said to Xu Lanyin at the other table, "Sister Xu, my father and grandmother are going to tell me about their daughter-in-law, they ask me what I like, and when I go back to the palace, I will say that I like Sister Xu, let them find Sister Xu." In the future, let my daughter-in-law give me a son like Xiao Xixi. ”

How can you tease the little daughter-in-law like this.

Xu Lan blushed with shame, and didn't know what to say to this stupid child.

The purple horse said, "Little four, don't say that, others will misunderstand when they hear it." ”

Liu Zhaohou pouted and said, "You all treat me as fools, so I'm not stupid." I just let them find it, and I didn't want to rob Sister Xu as a daughter-in-law. ”
