115: Lunch

"Your father is doing well, but he worked hard a few years ago, plus the root of the previous illness, he has been in bed for two days, and now he is getting better."

"That's good." His eyes were filled with tears again, and Yao Chuxi gently wiped them away with a handkerchief, "You must be hungry, it's raining, arrange a meal." ”

It was time for lunch now, and Luoshuang waited for Fang Shi to change into light clothes and sit down at the square table.

At first, the Fang family was reluctant to change his clothes, thinking that he might not be able to come when the emperor would come, so as not to lose face in front of the emperor and make him look down on his daughter. Besides, where is the reason why a person in civilian clothes is called the emperor?

Yao Chuxi is used to casual clothes every day, but the Fang family is a woman outside the palace after all, even if she gives birth to Yao Chuxi, she can't forget the rules if she calculates carefully.

But Yao Chuxi said, "The emperor is not coming today, I heard that several princes have entered the palace, and they are used in the Taihe Palace." ”

Looking at his mother, who was following the rules, Yao Chuxi felt sad in his heart.

The lunch was very hearty, thinking that his mother had never used the food in the palace, this meal was too busy for Yuan Shaoyu, Yao Chuxi had not begged him for anything for so long in the palace, just this time.

In addition to two plates of big fish, there are also four plates of delicate dim sum, a cup of black chicken soup and a cup of pork rib soup, a dish of red plum beads and a braised lion's head, as well as a plate of fat and thin sauce meat, and a cage of crystal roasted wheat.

"I heard that the little master said that you like to eat sauce meat alone when you are at home, and the little master asked the manager of the dining room to make this, can you taste the taste?" Luo Yu served the food on the side, and used chopsticks to pick up a large piece of sauce meat and put it on Fang's plate.

But where did the Fang clan dare to use her to serve?

"The girl is serious, it's not that she likes to eat alone, but she makes it occasionally at home, and she doesn't often eat it."

Yao Chuxi smiled on the side: "Mother, you can eat with peace of mind, and try the craftsmanship in this palace, whether there is any craftsmanship at home." ”

Fang's small bite of the sauce meat: "Where can someone who serves the emperor's meal be unskilled?" This sauce meat is fragrant and tender, I am afraid that it has been marinated for a long time, and it is really better than what is made at home. ”

"Try the soup again." Luoyu served a small bowl of black chicken soup to Fang's family.

Fang didn't politely talk to Luoyu this time, and took the bowl.

After a while, Duan Kui came in from outside, and the two palace people who followed behind him presented two square plates, one left and one right, and there were two food boxes in the square plates.

"Knowing that Mrs. Yao entered the palace, the emperor was worried in his heart, and specially asked the servants to come over with food." Duan Kui asked the palace people to open the food box as he spoke.

"A sea crab cup is given to the lady, Yao Meiren is not suitable to use this if she is pregnant, and another fresh shellfish and abalone cup is given to the lady and the beauty."

Yao Chuxi helped Luoxue to stand up, and the Fang clan also stood up with her daughter, and saluted Duan Kui, "Courtier, thank the emperor for his grace." ”

Yao Chuxi also said to Duan Kui, "The emperor is still thinking about his mother, how is the emperor in the Taihe Palace?" Have you ever had lunch? ”

Duan Kui replied, "Back to the beauty, it's being used, the slave has to hurry up to serve, if the beauty has no other instructions, the slave will go back." ”

Yao Chuxi nodded, and Duan Kui and the palace people behind him returned to the Taihe Hall together.

"I heard that my mother lived in the house before entering the palace?" After sending Duan Kui away, Yao Chuxi asked.

Fang nodded, and put an abalone on his daughter's plate with a silver spoon, "Originally, the emperor wanted to arrange for me to enter the palace earlier, but I knew that it was inconvenient, and I was afraid that I would do something wrong and affect you, so I lived outside, and the emperor arranged for King Sheng's Mansion to live for me, and I was afraid that I would trouble others." ”

Yao Chuxi heard the name of Prince Sheng again, if the guess is right, the one who lives in King Sheng's mansion is Lord Sheng.

It seems that Prince Sheng and the emperor have really let go of their suspicions, and the previous period of discord seems to have completely passed.

"Is it still convenient for my mother to live in King Sheng's Mansion?" Yao Chuxi asked again.

"It's okay, Princess Sheng is a kind person, although she only lived for one day, but she also arranged it properly, as if she was staying permanently, and everything was prepared for fear that I would not be used to it."

"My daughter has already told the emperor that if you stay in the palace for a while, you won't go back to King Sheng's mansion, and the emperor has already taken care of it." Yao Chuxi paused, "I didn't tell you before I came, it's really my daughter's poor arrangement, and I blame my daughter for not knowing that you would enter the palace." ”

"The emperor wants to surprise you." Fang Shi shook his daughter's hand.

After lunch, the mother and daughter chatted in the hall for a while.

Xu was in a very good mood, Yao Chuxi had no morning sickness for a whole day, and when it came time to dinner, he ate more than half a bowl of rice than usual.

Fang told her about the family, as well as the matter of her aunt's house, and her aunt's daughter was already looking for her mother-in-law's house.

"Yan'er? She will only be 14th or 5th this year, how can she find her in-laws so early? Yao Chuxi was a little surprised.

"You don't know how your aunt treats Yan'er? I was afraid that she would not be happy, so I planned to get up for her early, find more serious families, and marry her generously. After Fang finished speaking, he handed Yao Chuxi a piece of snacks and continued, "Besides, Yan'er's age is not young, when it is time to find her mother-in-law's family, where is there a boudoir woman who is seventeen or eighteen and still not married?" Are you going to get up now? ”

Yao Chuxi smiled a little helplessly, "I'm just afraid of Yan'er's temperament, she doesn't want to marry, and my aunt's intentions are in vain." ”

"How can it be a vain plan, a woman will marry one day."

"Did the scar on her forehead fall off? A woman's appearance is important, if there is a scar on the forehead, then which man dares to marry. Yao Chuxi asked again.

Hearing this, Fang's heart felt a lot more relaxed, "Yan'er's forehead has no scars, your aunt wasted a lot of effort to find the medicine to remove scars, and applied it to the forehead for more than three months, not letting her go out every day, but Yan'er was suffocated." ”

Yao Chuxi smiled: "Let her hold her at home for three months?" Didn't your aunt lock her up with a chain? ”

Fang Shi glared at her, and also smiled with her, "That's not it, it's just that I persuaded you well, and I also used you as an example, saying that my daughter's family should be like your sister of the Yao family." ”

As he spoke, someone entered the door.

"Little master, Concubine De is here with Princess Yunyi." Han Shanggong said.

"Come in, please." Yao Chuxi got up with his mother's hand, and the Fang family also got up with her.

Concubine De is wearing a jujube red dress today, with a thin shoulder on her waist, and she is holding Princess Yun Cheng in her right hand.

"The concubine asks for peace to Concubine De."

Concubine De had a smile on her face and immediately helped her up.

The Fang clan beside her knew that this was a master's mother, and remembered what Shang Gong had said before entering the palace, and she knelt down after her daughter got up.

"The courtiers say hello to Concubine De!"

It took a slow step before Concubine De noticed the Fang family, and she had heard the emperor talk about the Yao family's wife going to enter the palace, so she came here.

"Hurry up, please get up, please get up." Concubine De held Fang's hand with both hands, "Madame, I'm tired from the journey, I don't know if I've rested?" Can you get over? ”

Fang replied, "Xie Niangniang cares, the courtiers are very honored, the carriage arranged by the emperor is very spacious, the courtiers are not tired of anything, I have to thank the emperor here, the emperor's grace and the courtiers can not be repaid, and ask the mother to thank the emperor for the courtiers." ”

"You and Yao Meiren are mother and daughter, and you have a close relationship with the emperor, according to folk sayings, you are a son-in-law, and it is natural for a son-in-law to care about his mother-in-law."

This is a good thing to say, but the speaker has no intention of listening to it, if the Fang family really regards the emperor as a son-in-law, then it will probably not be fatal.

Han Shanggong arranged for Concubine De to sit down, and arranged a place for Princess Yuncheng.

Only then did Concubine De look at the Fang Clan.

Fang's casual clothes are very plain, which matches her daughter's usual dress, and at a glance, you can see that most of Yao Meiren's usual dressing and doing things come from Fang's.

The hall is very quiet, Yao Chuxi is a person who is not good at words, and when he encounters such a chronic son as the Shang family, Concubine De only thinks that the two of them are too similar, not only in appearance, but even in a glance and a smile.

This time, Concubine De also brought a gift, which was a box of ginseng from the top boss, saying that it was for Yao Chuxi's parents to replenish their bodies, and in addition to this ginseng, there were also a few pieces of cloth. Originally, before entering the palace, the clan didn't want to break the bank, but he couldn't wear the clothes worn by ordinary people, so he changed into a new clothes and bought expensive ones.

Fang's family is not a big man, even with Yao Chuxi, he can save money, although his father has an official position to eat and drink, but the two of them still live a tight life, and would rather give more to others than buy some objects and jewelry for themselves.

At first, Fang felt that his clothes were already very good, but after entering the palace, he touched the material on his daughter's body, only to feel a hot panic on his face, and thought that he had embarrassed his daughter.

The material sent by Concubine De was better than the one that Fang Shi worn.

"These are also ordered by the emperor, and Madame must accept them." Concubine De said with a smile.

This is just worried that the Fang clan will not accept what he said, if the emperor really wants to reward her with something, how can he reward these? The gift must not be delivered to the Yao family's mansion one by one?

But this is Concubine De's own intention, can she borrow the emperor's name?

This was the first time Fang Shi had seen the Zhenggong Niangniang, and he couldn't help but feel nervous, only to feel sweaty in his palms.

It's not a set of rhetoric that doesn't do bad things and isn't afraid of ghosts calling the door. The Fang family didn't do anything wrong, they were afraid that they would do something wrong or say something wrong, and it was nothing to punish themselves, they were afraid that they would affect their daughter and the entire Yao family.

I have heard that the women in the palace eat people and don't spit out bones, one set in front of them and one behind them, they are the most ruthless, and now their daughter still has a big belly, and I don't know if this Concubine De is really kind or pretended, how can the Fang family not be nervous?

Yao Chuxi saw it, gently held her mother's hand and made her relax, turned her head and ordered, "It's raining, quickly serve tea to Concubine De." ”

"Madame and Yao Meiren are really similar, they are carved out of a mold." Concubine De said after taking a sip of tea.

"Niangniang, you are joking, the courtiers are already old, and they can't compare with Yao Meiren."
