The General's Mansion of Zhenguo in northern Xinjiang

Dongguo Erge must cook porridge in the stove every year during the Laba Festival. For the mansion, from the general Ge Jitai to the rough slaves, they ate Laba porridge. After dividing the last bowl, I got up from dawn until noon.

Dongguo Er Gege finished eating Laba porridge, and went to the backyard to greet his mother, Princess Gulun Ruimin, as usual.

"Eniang, why haven't you eaten a bite? Is the porridge you made this year not to your liking? Dong Guo'er sat on the edge of the kang and looked carefully at Eniang's face.

Gu Tan Rui Min Princess still did not change her usual kind face, but the look in her eyes was a little empty.

After being silent for a while, Princess Gulun Ruimin said slowly: "In previous years, the Laba porridge was brought to me by Huai Sleeve herself...... as she spoke, frowning slightly, although she endured it, her eyes were already red.

When Dong Guo'er heard this, she became more and more unbearable, and her tears rolled down in pairs. choked quietly, and said in a trembling voice: "After this year, Huai'er will be in the palace, I, I don't know if I can see her in this life......"

Listening to her daughter's words, Princess Gulun Ruimin quietly lowered her eyes and hid the deep contemplation in her eyes......

At this time in the capital, there was an empty bowl in front of Huai Sleeve, which was originally filled with the fragrant Laba porridge cooked by the second sister Zhu Hetana herself, which was eaten by Huai Sleeve at this time.

"Today's holiday, my grandmother and my mother still don't know how to miss you!" Jukhtana laughed.

Holding his chin in his sleeve, he said leisurely: "I miss them too, but I have to work hard to add food, otherwise I will make them even more worried!" "

Since the last winter snowfall, Huai Sleeve has been sick in bed until these days.

These two days just had some appetite, two days ago Qi Buchen alone, secretly rode from the side to the capital to see Huai Sleeve, said that Eniang thought she thought badly, Qi Buchen was afraid of the New Year, after Huai Sleeve entered the palace, it would be difficult to meet again, rushed to the New Year, braved the heavy snow and ran to the capital, brought Huai Sleeve's favorite food in the general's mansion sauce and game, and there was also a letter from Ling Yue to the people.

Huai Sleeve was overjoyed to see his brother, read Ling Yue's letter, and was even more overjoyed, although Ling Yue's delivery date was a few days earlier, but blessed by the Bodhisattva, the mother and son were safe, and Ling Yue's belly was really competitive! Successfully gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses in one go.

Ling Yue's status in the Geldan Department is also expensive by mother and son, and she finally came out of it.

Huai Sleeve read the letter, so happy that he got out of bed the next day, and specially ran to the second sister's Buddhist hall to put on three incense sticks, kowtowed a few times, and begged the second sister to recite the prayer sutra to Ling Yue a few times.

After eating laba porridge, put down the dishes and chopsticks. The sleeves stretched out, feeling much more refreshed than a while ago, looking at the warm winter sun outside the window, the sleeves were a little ready to move.

"Sister, I want to go out for a walk, okay?" Huai Sleeve whispered to Zhu Hetana.

Zhu Hetana originally wanted to refuse, but looking at her big pitiful eyes, and thinking that she was about to enter the palace after the New Year, her heart softened, and she instructed: "If you want to go out, you must let the snow geese follow, and don't let it take too long, the weather is cold, and when your body is just right, be careful!" "

"Uh-huh, I promise to be obedient!" Seeing that the second sister was relieved, Huai Sleeve nodded desperately in agreement, got up and ran to the backyard.

As soon as he stood under the corridor of the embroidery building, he faintly heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from the street.

Listening to Xueyan said, the little year in the capital is more lively than the thirty years of the Chinese New Year's Eve! Many famous juggling teams in the capital, this day is the last scene of the year, and make a sum of money, Ming'er will call it a day and go back for the New Year, and there are many stilt Yangge, all taking advantage of the fact that there are more people on the street today, stretching their hands and feet, and preparing to show their skills on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

The seven souls with sleeves have long been hooked by those ugly faces wearing red and green, as well as the earth-shattering gongs and drums, how can she imprison her young swallow who has just come out of the nest in such a lively day.

Snow Goose changed the sleeve into an ivory white fox skin jacket cotton robe, and the outside was draped with a new fur and fur cloak of Zhu Hetana, and in the courtyard where the sleeve lived, a few days ago, Lamei opened a few branches, she often went out to walk in the snow and enjoy the plum blossoms, and Zhu Hetana gave her this precious snow fur cloak and asked her to go out and wrap herself.

"I've been sick these days, my complexion hasn't been recuperated, and my face is getting fairer and fairer by this silver, it's really transparent, it's a pity to disguise, if my daughter dresses up and then paints some rouge, a little vermilion on her lips, it's better than the women in the New Year's paintings!" Su'er couldn't help but admire.

Su'er thought that when she came to the capital, her sleeves would not adapt to the water and soil, but she didn't expect that after living in the capital for more than half a year, the pink carvings and jade carvings of the sleeves became more and more falling, soft and fair, and she thought that the wind in the capital was not as strong as that of the northern Xinjiang, and the water was softer than that of the northern Xinjiang, and it was more nourishing.

Huai Sleeve and Snow Goose left the house in a pony carriage as usual.

"Where do you want to go today?" Snow Goose asked.

Huai Sleeve thought for a while and said: "I also went to Zifeng Tower, there is everything lively on that street, pick a position by the window and sit down, it is warm and wide." "

After making up her mind, Xue Yan instructed the little guy who was driving the car, and the little carriage shook the copper bell and went straight to Zifeng Tower.

Soon, the car stopped in front of the Zifeng Building, Xue Yan carefully helped the sleeves to get out of the car, the master and servant entered the Zifeng Building, the tea guys of the Zifeng Building all recognized the sleeves, and greeted the master and servant upstairs, while chatting and asking: "Huai Gongzi hasn't come to us for tea for a long time, and the little one thinks you have left the capital." "

Huai Sleeve only smiled when he heard this, and said, "Isn't this coming again?" Don't worry, as long as I have time, most of them will come to support your business. "

The young man slapped a thousand first, and said with a sweet smile: "Thank you for the shopkeeper I took care of for us first!" "

The man let his sleeve go to a small tea table by the window, tore off the snow-white hand towel on his shoulder, neatly wiped the spotless table again, and turned downstairs to serve refreshments.

Just waiting for tea in his arms, he was looking at the scenery outside the window, but he heard the guy downstairs shouting: "Rong Gongzi, please upstairs!" "

Huai Sleeve was shocked, thinking that he had heard it wrong, such a coincidence? I and he actually entered the door with their front and back feet, as if they had made an appointment.

Just as he was thinking, he heard the sound of going up the stairs from the staircase, and his eyes were unconsciously staring at the staircase.

Rong Ruo and Gu Zhenguan went up to the second floor, Rong Ruo walked in front, and at a glance saw sitting by the window, also looking at their arms.

Rong Ruo was stunned for a moment, followed by a slightly unhappy face, walked straight to his sleeve, swept away the gentleness of the past, and asked in a deep voice: "Why did you run out today?" The people on the street are making a lot of noise, so don't go back quickly! There was a bit of rebuke in his tone.
