Chapter 331: Sister and Brother
Hearing that Wuwu called Changsheng as his "younger brother", Zhou Youchen's brows frowned slightly unconsciously.
He always had some mind in his heart. He is a worry-free uncle, and it doesn't hurt to take care of her all her life. It's just that she is Zhou Youping's daughter in the end, he and Zhou Youping are mortal enemies, and she is the enemy's daughter after all.
Meng Xilan was such a careful person, how could she not notice the slight movement between Zhou Youchen's eyebrows.
After a while, Changsheng was tired of playing, so Zhulu took him down to take a nap, and Wuwu also followed him.
She likes this brother very much, pink, chubby little person, babbling is the cutest.
The children were gone, Meng Xilan made a pot of good tea, sat down face-to-face with Zhou Youchen, and asked quietly: "Does the emperor mind that the concubines let Wuwu and Changsheng be commensurate with sisters and brothers?" ”
Zhou Youchen raised his eyes to look at her: "It's okay for sister and brother to be commensurate, it's just that he is Zhou Youping's daughter, and when she grows up, won't she complain about me?" Won't I blame you? ”
If it is said that raising tigers is a problem, it is an exaggeration. However, when the child grows up and has a suspicion in his heart, what should he do? He doesn't care about himself, but what about immortality?
He did not allow Immortal to have anyone with bad intentions around him.
Meng Xilan saw the tea bowl and handed it to him in person: "The child is older, what is in his heart, it is really up to the concubine to decide." It's just that I don't have to worry about losing my mother at a young age, and now is the time to need someone to care for me. Moreover, Changsheng has no brothers by his side, and it is good to have an older sister. ”
"Lan'er ......" Zhou Youchen had no intention of embarrassing a child, but he was uneasy.
Meng Xilan smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, the concubines have their own sense of proportion in this matter. Worry-free is still young, and the concubine spends a little more effort to teach slowly. ”
The child's heart is best adjusted, as long as she is allowed to distinguish between right and wrong, when she grows up, she will definitely understand that everything back then was not their fault, but Zhou Youping's own bitter fruit.
Zhou Youchen took a sip of tea and said, "I believe that you are." ”
Meng Xilan lowered her eyes quietly: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
There are too few children in the palace, and two people can still be with each other, which is naturally the best.
Spring is on, and the weather is getting warmer.
Meng Xilan often took the children to play in the imperial garden, and she could see that Wuwu really liked immortality, and circled around him all day long, talking to him.
Changsheng was originally a child who loved to laugh, and when he saw it, he smiled even more.
Zhulu brought the rice paste boiled in the imperial dining room, and when she heard Changsheng's laughter, she only said: "Niangniang, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really likes the carefree girl." ”
Meng Xilan smiled and said, "The rice paste is boiled, take a look at it in this palace." ”
Changsheng is almost six months old, and he can already eat some rice cereal.
Breast milk is the best, but the child has already begun to be greedy, and when he sees someone eating, he will start staring, eating his fingers and drooling.
Yesterday, worry-free pillow on her knees to eat walnut kernels, Changsheng was greedy, and finally almost cried.
Meng Xilan tasted the rice cereal a little, but felt that the taste was light, but she could taste the taste of crushed sesame seeds and walnut kernels, and there was a faint milky fragrance.
"What's in there?" Meng Xilan asked carefully.
Zhulu replied seriously: "Hui Niangniang, there are fine rice noodles, goat's milk, a little walnut kernels, and a little sesame seeds." ”
Meng Xilan nodded slightly.
"I wonder if Changsheng can get used to it?"
Zhulu said with a smile: "Let the slave maid try it." ”
She came to Changsheng with a small bowl, squatted down and said, "Slave maid to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to say goodbye." ”
Hearing this, Changsheng turned his head, looked at her, and then looked at the porridge bowl in her hand, and sighed.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, this is the rice cereal prepared for you by the mother."
Where could Changsheng understand what she was saying, and waved his little hands well.
Carefree asked curiously, "This is for Changsheng to eat?" ”
Zhu Lu nodded slightly: "That's right, from now on, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will start to learn to eat." ”
Worry-free smiled when he heard this, stretched out his hand and said, "Let me feed him, okay?" ”
Zhu Lu dodged slightly, "This is not good, the girl should not move, let the slave maid feed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first." ”
She carefully scooped up a spoonful and brought it to Changsheng's mouth.
Who knows, Changsheng turned his head away, and didn't seem to be interested in the rice paste at all.
Zhulu sent it again, but Changsheng still didn't eat it.
Not only did she look back at Meng Xilan and said, "Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to want to eat it." ”
Meng Xilan counted the time, and he was also going to use milk when the time came.
"Let Hongu try."
Changsheng already knows how to recognize people, and when he sees Meng Xilan, he will also shout "Hmmm".
However, Changsheng still didn't eat it, just turned his head to see worry-free.
Wuwu's eyes lit up, and he said to Meng Xilan: "Niangniang, why don't you let Wuwu try?" ”
Meng Xilan looked at her with a smile: "What do you do?" ”
The corners of Wuwu's mouth curled, and he stretched out his finger and pointed to the porridge bowl and said, "Niangniang, as long as you give the porridge bowl to Wuwu." ”
Meng Xilan naturally leaned on her, "Okay, you can try it." ”
Carefree brought the bowl over and gently tapped the edge of the bowl with a spoon to attract Changsheng's attention.
Changsheng stared at her with a pair of big confused eyes, and snorted.
Wuwu scooped up a spoonful of rice cereal, put it into his mouth first, and then smiled at Changsheng: "It's delicious, it's so delicious." ”
Although Changsheng couldn't understand it, he finally understood that the contents of this bowl were edible, and moreover, it was delicious.
Changsheng looked at it and began to eat his fingers, obviously gluttonous.
Seeing that he was hungry, Wuwu hurriedly scooped up another spoonful and slowly handed it to his mouth: "Good brother, try it." ”
Changsheng finally opened his mouth, took a small bite, and ate it.
It was the first time he had eaten rice cereal, and he was still a little unfamiliar with the taste, but fortunately, he was still used to eating goat's milk in it.
However, he ate two bites and stopped eating.
Zhu Lu smiled happily and took the bowl in Wuwu's hand, "The girl still has a way, the slave thank you." ”
Carefree grinned, took out his handkerchief and wiped Changsheng's mouth: "My brother is a little gluttonous cat, as soon as others eat it, he will be hungry." ”
Seeing her talking like this, Zhu Lu hurriedly reminded: "Girl, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a noble status, don't talk nonsense. ”
Worry-free lowered his head slightly when he heard this.
Meng Xilan said softly: "It's okay, Tong Yan Wuji." After speaking, she smiled at Wuwu and praised: "Today is thanks to Wuwu." ”
It's best for children to have a child's way.
After returning to the palace, Meng Xilan asked Wuwu to take a nap with her, she stroked her hair and said, "Wuwu, do you really like Changsheng?" ”
Worry-free hugged the quilt and nodded: "Well, Changsheng is very cute, cute when he laughs, and cute when he cries." ”
Meng Xilan smiled when she heard this: "You can think so, this palace is very happy." ”
Wuwu turned his head to look at her and said, "Niangniang, can Wuwu treat Changsheng as a younger brother in the future?" ”
Meng Xilan was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Of course, Changsheng was originally your younger brother. So, in the future, please take good care of him with this palace. ”
Carefree smiled sweetly: "Yes, Niangniang." Carefree will take good care of his younger brother in the future, Carefree will not let people bully him, will play with him, and will give him his best things. ”
The childish words of the child are the most touching.
Meng Xilan smiled as if sighing, stretched out her arm, let her pill on her arm, and coaxed softly: "Good boy, my good boy." ”
Although carefree is small, her temperament is the same as her mother, so kind.
……
The green light of the ancient temple, coarse tea and light rice.
Zhang Rong'er has been practicing in the first temple for three months, and every day is like a year for her.
She was counting with her fingers every day, how long would she have to stay up before she could return to the palace.
After all she had been through, she thought she would never want to go back to that place full of calculations. Who knows, she never expected that this outside life would be such a pure hardship.
No matter how bad the palace is, there are still brocade clothes and jade food, silk and satin, unlike here, there is nothing, it is deserted, only those monks with cold faces, and a pile of scriptures that are about to mold.
She didn't understand those truths, but she knew that it was easier said than done.
After a while, the palace maid Jing'er stepped forward to add lamp oil to her, and when she saw her frowning, she said: "Niangniang, the hour is not early, you can rest when you are tired." ”
Zhang Rong'er put down the brush with a displeased face and instructed the palace maid to rub her neck for her.
Jing'er naturally stepped forward and helped her massage.
Zhang Rong'er pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Recently, is there any news in the palace?" ”
Jing'er nodded slightly: "Back to Niangniang, the grandmother in the palace came to spread the word, saying that the emperor has been very fond of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recently, and he has to hug him for more than half an hour every day, and will change his clothes and take a bath for him, just like a loving father." ”
Now in the palace, everyone talks about the emperor's love and carefulness for the prince.
Zhang Rong'er smiled when she heard this: "This palace is suffering here, but they are happy over there......"
Jing'er subconsciously looked out the window: "Niangniang, you can't talk nonsense." ”
Although they are outside the palace, there are still a lot of eyeliner in the palace around, paying attention to Zhang Rong'er's every move.
Zhang Rong'er smiled lightly. The crown prince is Meng Xilan's child, and the emperor naturally hurts badly.
She counted her fingers, and she could go back to the palace for three more days.
"As long as you go back to the palace, there is still a little hope in the palace. Although the queen mother is scheming, she is now dedicated to taking care of the prince, and she will not always keep an eye on the palace. ”
Jing'er hadn't been with her for a long time, and when she heard her say this, she just smiled and said, "Niangniang has a beautiful appearance, and sooner or later she will have the opportunity to be favored by the emperor." ”
Zhang Rong'er shook her head slightly: "With the queen mother in front, how dare this palace expect the emperor's favor?" Isn't this palace going to die...... This palace now just wants to have a peaceful life in the palace, and you can have no worries for a lifetime. ”
When Jing'er heard her say this, she suddenly remembered a person, that is, the worry-free girl beside the queen's mother.
"Niangniang, why do you say such discouraged words, the future will be long...... By the way, Niangniang, slave, I heard that the queen has a worry-free girl by her side, very cute and favored. ”
Zhang Rong'er saw that she didn't know anything, so she glanced at her and said coldly: "What do you know?" There is a bad relationship between the queen mother and the child. ”
She loves her, but it is just to make up for the debt she owed to the Chu family in the past.
