Chapter 731: Flower Fair (2)
Hearing this, Sister Sheng hurriedly sat down, and saw Mother Zheng take out a few knee pads made of short fur from the basket she brought in, and said: "The eldest lady said that although it is a spring, but the spring cold is amazing, thinking that the children in the family are still young and the most unbearable to freeze, so they turned out a lot of leather from the warehouse and sewed them into knee pads, and asked me to take them for Sister Sheng to choose first, and then send the rest to Liufu to ask Brother Tian'er to choose." ”
Sister Sheng walked over curiously, and saw that there were four pairs of knee pads on display inside, two of which were snow-white, and each pair of fur was not so long and thick, just a thin layer of close-fitting, and there must be no trace under the skirt after wearing it.
"Grandmother really cares!" Sister Sheng said, chose a pure white one for herself, and couldn't wait to bring it to try. When the little maid next to her saw it, she hurriedly came over and helped her tie it.
After putting it on, she stood up and took two steps to try, and said with a smile: "It's so suitable!" I'll go to Chang Mingxuan another day, thank you grandmother! ”
"The eldest lady also prepared a pair for the princess, I don't know that you are here with Sister Sheng, and you have already asked Mingyan to send it to Baoyue Courtyard."
"You should also persuade my mother to rest well on weekdays, the elder brother of the family married a daughter-in-law and gave birth to a child, he wants to honor his grandmother, where to use her to bow down in everything?"
Shi Qingqian smiled and picked up Yao'er, who had woken up. Thinking that he had been here for some time, but now he was so hungry that he couldn't tell them to fire in the yard for himself, so he thought about leaving first.
Zheng's mother put another pair, saying that it was for Brother Hong's land, and then put away the remaining two knee pads, and said: "The eldest lady has always been an idle person, if you don't let her worry, she will have to suffocate herself." ”
Sister Sheng was still excited on the side, and said, "I'm really looking forward to going to the flower fair!" It must be very lively! ”
Seeing that the child was so happy that he could not see his teeth, and the elders in the house were also happy.
It's a pity that Sister Sheng has lived in that small place in Tongling for a long time since she was a child, and there are few such lively gatherings on weekdays that can call her happy. But fortunately, she came to the capital, and there are a lot of things to do all year round, as long as she wants to go, she can go whenever she wants.
"You, just eat and sleep well, and go out together that day," Shi Qingqian walked over and poked her forehead, "Okay, Mother Zheng and I will go back first, Sister Sheng, you can choose what clothes to wear that day!" ”
Sister Sheng immediately got up, "Got it!" Auntie go slowly! ”
Shi Qingqi took Yao'er back to Baoyue Courtyard, and just said that he wanted to find some fruit and pastries to cushion his stomach, and the next person said that Shen Shu said that he would come to Hou's Mansion for dinner today, and asked Shi Qingqi to drink soup and endure it first, and she could only do so.
Fortunately, he didn't wait too long, and soon Chang Mingxuan prepared dinner, and Shi Qingqian was the first to rush over.
"Where's the prince? Haven't you come yet?" Seeing that no one was sitting at the table, Shi Qingqian asked, and wanted to eat a bite of meat first to solve the problem of food and clothing.
"If you are hungry, eat first, and the little prince will come back with your father in a while." The eldest lady walked in out of nowhere and sat down next to Shi Qingqi, but she didn't move her chopsticks, but just asked Shi Qingqian to eat first.
Since it was in her own home, Shi Qingqian was not stupid to hold the shelf, she was so hungry that her chest was close to her back, and after getting the permission of the eldest lady, she hurriedly took a few pieces of meat and stuffed them into her mouth.
"Mother, I heard that the Earl Gao Wenzhong's palace also sent you a greeting post?" Shi Qingqian buried his head and asked while eating, "His Gao lady likes to toss these gatherings the most, will you go there this year?" ”
In the past, Mrs. Gao would pay tribute every year, but the eldest lady didn't know how to ride a horse, and she didn't know anything about polo, pitching pots, or something, she was really boring after two years, and then she just sent something to add a color, and she didn't go much under the pretext that she was not feeling well.
But this year is different, this year's flower fair but the emperor said to come to 'join in the fun', the interest of the people to hold various projects is also a lot higher, each place is measured by the best standards, such a big and lively flower fair, the eldest lady knows that she will shirk it is to make people say behind her back, and naturally it should come down.
She nodded, "Naturally, I have to go, this year is not as perfunctory as in previous years, and a few small ones in the family are going to be lively, how can I refute their interest?" ”
Shi Qingqian smiled at her, and the eldest lady took another piece of chicken farther away and put it on the plate for her, "By the way, mother, I haven't seen my second brother for a few days, and I just went to Sister Sheng'er and didn't see the two of them, what are you doing?" ”
"Don't you know?" The eldest lady was slightly stunned, "Didn't your second brother take down that Qilin Xuan some time ago?" This year's Flower Fair is going to him to hold the poetry competition, he is very busy these days, how to say that he is also the owner of Qilinxuan, and he has to keep an eye on the preparations every day. ”
"Second brother is so powerful? I'm just going to hold a poetry competition? Shi Qingleng said.
Sure enough, it is right to say that the people in his family are not stupid, and this as a place to host the flower fair, it must be carefully selected from above, which shows that Shi An's Qilinxuan is really doing well.
The mother and daughter chatted for a short time, and a maid came up to say that the Hou Ye and the little prince were back. The two of them went to change their clothes before rushing over to finish eating.
Shen Shu hadn't seen Shi Qingqian for two days, and when he saw her, he hugged her affectionately and turned around, which made Shi Yuan and the eldest lady laugh so much.
It was very warm when eating, it was still early to eat today, and the sky had not completely darkened after eating, Shen Shu thought about it and decided to go to Baoyue Courtyard to rest first.
Shi Qingqian's boudoir, now that Shen Shu lives in it, he is not ashamed at all, and he went directly to the bed when he entered the door, "Huh-comfortable, I haven't slept on such a soft bed in the past two days!" ”
"Didn't you say that you won't be back for the past few days, why did you come to our Hou Mansion to eat and drink today?" Shi Qingqian glanced at it, and as soon as he sat on the bed, he was pulled into his arms.
"I'm really tired today, so I took a leave to sleep first," Shen Shu had already closed his eyes and said softly, "I have to squint for a while, and then enter the palace to continue my errands." ”
"You should pay attention to your body, don't stay up at night!" Shi Qingqian scolded. However, Shen Shu behind him refused to speak.
He must be too tired to do it, Fang Fang looked at him with a dark green front of his eyes, and he looked like he hadn't rested for several days, Shi Qing was stunned for a while, and then he heard the sound of even breathing coming from behind his ears, and Shen Shu had already fallen asleep.
She couldn't bear to disturb his rest, so she closed her eyes too, and it wasn't long before she fell asleep deeply.
After about two hours, Shen Shu got up gently, kissed the sleeping Shi Qingqi, and tiptoed out.
"Changgo, let's go, go back to the palace."
