Empress Dowager Xu was still a little unconvinced: "You did this?" ”

"No, it's made by Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Mama Jiang took the silver chopsticks and handed them to the Empress Dowager Xu, and said with a smile: "Her Royal Highness the princess cooked before she got up early and went to Hanzhang Pavilion, and instructed the princess to order the ham to be simmered in broth, and asked the blister to carve the radish into a flower, and took the radish and pounded it himself. After school at noon, His Royal Highness didn't rest, and ran to tinker with the pickled radish again. The maid is still thinking, is it so hard to pickle a radish? But thinking that it was His Royal Highness's filial piety, he couldn't bear to tell the Queen Mother. ”

Empress Dowager Xu had already picked up a piece of radish and put it in her mouth, and her eyes lit up: "It's delicious!" This radish is crisp and refreshing, not rushing at all, and a little sweet and sour. Even better, it has the aroma of ham. ”

Empress Dowager Xu took another sip of porridge, "um", and drank several sips in succession: "The porridge is also good!" This layer of rice oil is soft and glutinous, and it is very fragrant. ”

"If Grandmother likes it, it's fine."

Xiao Yuan put the thinly cut chicken shreds in front of Empress Dowager Xu: "This shredded chicken has also been mixed with red oil, fragrant but not greasy." Grandmother tasted it. ”

For a meal, Empress Dowager Xu was coaxed by Xiao Yuan to use two bowls of porridge before putting down the silver chopstick.

"Ah, I'm so old, I know that I feel sorry for my grandmother."

Empress Dowager Xu pressed the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, and when she saw that it was raining outside, she got off the bed: "God has always had a gloomy face these days, and my wife is stuffy in the house, and she can't go anywhere." ”

Xiao Yuan held Empress Dowager Xu's hand and said with a smile: "Grandmother is walking around the house to eliminate food." Later, let them cut some melons to eat. ”

The two grandparents walked back and forth around the corridor, seeing the chrysanthemums in the yard being beaten by the rain and nodding, and there were some lotus flowers in the vat.

"The rain has stopped, and it's time for Kyoto to get cold. Ming'er asked them to withdraw the lotus, and the defeated flowers looked at it, and they were a little depressed in their hearts. ”

Empress Dowager Xu held Xiao Yuanhao's shoulder, walking slowly and leisurely, while chattering: "In a few days, it will be the fifteenth birthday of your second brother and your third brother." The palace has to do a lot of things for two days in a row, and after their birthdays, they will marry a lady. ”

Xiao Yuan listened obediently, but he remembered Chu Qi in his mind.

Ever since the envoys from Qin and Chen entered Beijing, Chu Qi never had a smile on his face.

Especially when I heard that Qin Nu and Chen Nu also entered Beijing with the envoys, Chu Qi was distracted even when he was in class, and he was named by the gentlemen several times.

Fortunately, Mr. Chu has been promoted and is not studying in Hanzhang Pavilion, otherwise, Chu Qi would have been punished to death.

Xiao Yuan knew Chu Qi's thoughts, and he was also very worried about her.

If Chu Qi marries the third prince as the eldest lady, the temperament of this family is definitely qualified. The bad is on Chu Qi's face. It would be nice if Yan Guo also had a plastic surgeon, or a miracle doctor or something, who could remove the birthmark on Chu Qi's face.

It's a pity that even Su Guangbai, the god of medicine, can't do anything about the birthmark on Chu Qi's face.

With such a large red spot on his face, how could Chu Qi marry the third son. It's good to be able to marry.

I don't know what the third prince thinks, if the third prince is interested in this matter and insists on marrying Chu Qi, maybe it will be done.

But Xiao Yuan can't figure out the third son. On weekdays, the third prince seems to be more attentive to his cousin Yu Xueruo.

It's no wonder that Yu Xueruo was born as beautiful as a flower, and she is called Kyoto Double Difference with the Seventh Princess. is cute and kind-hearted, which man is not moved when he sees it?

Xiao Yuan's good view of Mrs. Allure also intends to promote the good things of his son and niece. As for Chu Qi, Mrs. Allure couldn't look down on her at all.

It's not easy.

As Chu Qi's friend, Xiao Yuan didn't want Chu Qi to be depressed like this.

On this day, she asked Chu Qi to stay in the palace to accompany her.

Chu Qi was not very interested: "Your Highness, you haven't seen your parents at home for half a month......

Xiao Yuan interrupted her impatiently: "You have it, don't use this set of rhetoric to perfunctory me." I don't know what your mother is like to you? Your brother has gone to Qizhou to be a doctor, and your mother's heart has followed, how could it be put on you. ”

In May, the children of the family came to study for the third time.

The sixteen sons of the Chu family lived up to expectations and were all selected. Xiao Yuan was coquettish with Xiao Gan, so Xiao Gan turned a blind eye and stuffed all the children of the Chu family to the south where the learning style was flourishing, and they went to be doctors and mountain chiefs.

It is estimated that Xiao Qian also knew that Xiao Yuan had something to do with the Chu family, but he didn't know why, but he didn't care about it.

Xiao Yuan was so happy and comfortable, and occasionally talked to Xiao Gan.

Xiao Qian was interested, and he would also mention how his little daughter knew and used people.

The details of the sixteen sons of the Chu family, Xiao Qian also helped Xiao Yuan to find out clearly, much more detailed than Liao Feng's investigation.

Here, Chu Yi's own brother Chu Yi is the person that Xiao Qian emphasized to Xiao Yuan.

Chu Yi is the leader of the Chu family's generation, and even surpasses Chu Jian, the eldest grandson of the long house, which is the hope of the Chu family, and it is naturally the baby bump on the tip of Chu Weng's mother's heart.

Compared with the ugly daughter, it is naturally more important to be a son.

Chu Qi was silent: "It's an ugly girl without salt, which makes Ah Weng's mother have no light on her face, and makes the Chu family also humiliated." It is also human nature for Ah Weng and Ah Mother to care for her brother. ”

"It's normal for people to be a ball of yarn!"

Xiao Yuan couldn't help but burst into foul language, and Chu Qi was stunned: "What is the ball of yarn?" ”

Her Royal Highness the princess often has new words, and in recent years, Chu Qi has learned words and phrases such as fat house happy water, banana and you bale.

Xiao Yuan waved his hand: "It's not important. Let me tell you, Ah Yan, your mother is patriarchal! ”

In this era, of course, a son is more important than a girl, but it is not so absolute. Many families can't give birth to children, so they raise girls as children.

Xiao Yuanhao, this princess, has a higher status than several sons.

"How are you worse than your brother? Take 10,000 steps back and say, you are a daughter's family, it is not good to compare with your brothers, then you can always compare with your sisters. Your sisters are still concubines, and they can please your mother, but you, a serious concubine, are behind! ”

Xiao Yuan said that later, he had forgotten his original intention, and he was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to go out of the palace to the Chu family: "I'll go to your mother's mother!" ”

Chu Qi is her best friend, her Xiao Yuan's good best friend, and she can't tolerate others to say anything bad.

"Your Highness can't go down!" Chu Qi hurriedly hugged Xiao Yuan, "If you don't go home, you will accompany His Royal Highness in the palace, isn't it okay?" ”

Xiao Yuan remembered what he was going to do.

"Nacheng, for your sake, I'll let them go. Tell me that they're abusing you, and I'm going to have to clean them up. ”

Chu Qi was very depressed, her Ah Weng and Aunt were just cold to her and didn't abuse her, right?

Xiao Yuan knew Chu Qi's belly, her eyes were shining, and she winked at Chu Qi narrowly: "I'll take you to a place tomorrow." ”
