Chapter 35: Choosing a Child (3)

In Yide Garden, He Lin window strokes the piano.

"The triumphant wind comes from the south, blowing his thorny heart. The thorny heart is dying, and the mother's family is laborious. The triumphant wind comes from the south, blowing the thorny salary. Mother's holiness, I have nothing to do. Is there a cold spring? Under the dredging. There were seven sons, and the mother worked hard. Look at the yellow bird, carry its sound. There are seven sons, and they don't comfort their mothers. ”

Wang Shi came in, heard He stroking the qin and singing, and said softly: "Zhaoyi, the weather is fine today, is it okay for the slave to accompany Zhaoyi to take a walk in the garden?" ”

He didn't answer, but slowly got up, went to the window, gently pushed the window door, looked at the spring scenery in the garden, and said: "After the spring equinox, it is Qingming." When I was young, my mother would take my sisters to wrap spring cakes and eat them. ”

Wang Shi leaned forward slightly, and said with a smile: "Zhaoyi is in the palace, why can't you eat?" The slave knows that Zhaoyi must miss his wife. ”

He smiled and looked out the window.

Not far from the garden, Concubine Gao led Yuan Ke, Yuan Huai and Yuan Ying to play and play. He was overjoyed when he saw it, so he said to Wang: "Go to the garden for a walk, and it is good to see Zike's brothers and sisters." ”

Wang hurriedly opened the door and led the way, and the two went to the garden together.

has been with Gao Concubine's mother and son for nearly half a month, and Zike's brothers and sisters have also become acquainted with He.

Seeing He Xing coming from afar, Yuan Ying ran to meet him. He squatted down, hugged Yuan Ying, and said softly: "Ying'er, I made a bean cake, and when you return to the house, I will let Jixiang give it to you to eat." ”

Ying'er said in a milky voice: "Ying'er loves Zhaoyi's snacks the most, and Ying'er thanked Zhaoyi." ”

He got up and pulled Yuanying forward together. The Gao family has already brought Yuan Ke and Yuan Huai brothers to greet him.

Gao's and the second son made a regular salute to He, and said: "Fang Cai Ke'er is still talking about Zhaoyi, and the Tao is to make spring cakes with Zhaoyi." ”

When Wang heard this, he said with a smile: "Zhaoyi, you see, the second prince really has a relationship with you, but it is like hearing your words." ”

Seeing Gao's blank face, He smiled and said: "Fang Caiwu and Sister-in-law Wang said that when they were young, they would make spring cakes with their mother when they were young. Unexpectedly, Ke'er wanted to make spring cakes with me, and I really had a fate with Ke'er. ”

After that, he stroked Yuan Ke's cheek and said softly: "Ke'er, I'll let Sister-in-law Wang prepare the ingredients and make spring cakes with you in the afternoon, okay?" ”

Yuan Ke nodded and said happily: "What Zhaoyi made must be delicious." ”

Looking at the three brothers and sisters with a smile in his eyes, He continued: "Go play, the sun is just right at this time, and more sun can help your physique to be healthy." ”

Gao saw that He was so close to his children, and he was also very moved in his heart.

When the Yuan Ke brothers and sisters ran away, He and Gao walked slowly side by side.

He smiled and said, "I heard Your Majesty mention that it is only two months before the birth of the concubine, so we should prepare the production needs here as soon as possible." ”

Gao Shi showed a satisfied smile as a mother, and replied: "Xie Zhaoyi cares, the concubines of the brothers and sisters of Ke'er in the early years are still there, and they have been washed with the palace oars a few days ago, and they are still available. ”

He felt in his heart, nodded, and said: "The folk saying that the newborn son can grow up safely by wearing the clothes of his brother and sister. ”

Although the folk have this custom, the royal family is different from the folk. Gao knew that Zhaoyi had a good heart, and his words were all comforting to himself, so he smiled and nodded.

The two walked slowly and chatted happily.

Suddenly, I saw auspiciousness walking into the garden. Xiang He and Gao's saluted, and auspiciously said to He: "Zhaoyi, Mrs. Li came to invite Zhaoyi, and Mrs. Dao made some hometown snacks and invited Zhaoyi to taste them." ”

He Wenyan nodded, and said to Gao: "Why don't you go with me, and you can enjoy the spring flowers on the road." ”

Gao smiled slightly and said, "Xie Zhaoyi is kind, it's just that the Ke'er brothers and sisters have always pestered the concubines, and if they take them together, they may disturb Mrs. Li's luncheon." ”

When He heard Gao's words, he suddenly remembered that Gao had never liked to associate with people, so he felt that what he said was inappropriate, so he apologized: "Then you can go back, so that you can rest, don't let the Ke'er brothers and sisters work until you are tired." ”

When He turned to leave, looking at his distant back, Gao sighed in his heart, how could there be such a beautiful, pure and empathetic person in the world.

When He arrived at the gate of the Li Palace, he saw the Li family smiling and greeted him.

Li Shi smiled and said, "How could Zhaoyi not sit in a sedan chair and come on foot?" ”

He smiled slightly and said, "The spring light is just right, how can you miss the scenery in the garden." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone singing in harmony.

"Rank and rank, secluded South Mountain. Such as bamboo bud mountain, such as pine mao. Brother and brother, the style is good, and there is no same..."

Li Shi saw that He listened carefully, and was secretly happy in his heart.

When the singing stopped, He Fang asked Li: "Madam, who is Fang and Qin singing?" ”

Li pretended to be mysterious and said: "Zhaoyi will know when she enters with her concubine." ”

After that, he took the first half step to lead the way.

The palace maids have placed chopsticks and dishes on the table. When Concubine Zheng and Concubine Lu stepped forward to salute He, Li led He into the seat.

Seeing that Zheng and Lu's second concubines were only standing aside, but not seated, He smiled and said, "We are all sisters, wouldn't it be better to eat at the same table?" ”

Seeing that the Li family bowed slightly, the Zheng family and the Lu family sat down.

Huandan entered with a wine vessel in his hand and said: "Zhaoyi, this is the wine made by Mrs. with plum blossoms in the old years, and Mrs. is reluctant to drink it on weekdays, and only takes it out when His Majesty comes." ”

Li Shi said angrily: "Mouthy, Zhaoyi is here for the first time, how can I not be hospitable." ”

The master and servant sang and harmonized, just to make He Ke feel that the Li family treated her well.

He listened to Li's words, smiled lightly, and said, "Madame's kindness, I should thank you." ”

Li said with a smile: "Since Zhaoyi said that we are all sisters, how can we say thank you again." ”

While speaking, he poured a full wine for He, and Li continued: "As the saying goes, 'On the occasion of the spring equinox, the Xuanniao arrives, the thunder is sounding, and the four suns are prosperous', so I will use this wine to celebrate the spring equinox solar term with Zhaoyi." ”

Seeing that He drank the wine in the cup, Li smiled and said: "The person who asked Zhaoyi to touch the qin is the niece of Concubine Zheng, Zhaoyi would like to see it?" ”

He nodded and said with a smile: "I just heard the singing, and I felt that this sound was pleasant and crisp, not for our women, it was Concubine Zheng's family, please come and let me take a look." ”

Huandan hurriedly answered, and soon brought a girl inside.

But seeing this woman's eyebrows and skin like coagulation, although it is slightly plump, it is amiable and makes people happy.

When she walked in front of everyone, the woman leaned over and saluted, saying, "The little girl Zheng Qiao has seen Zhaoyi, Mrs., Concubine Lu, and aunt. ”

He motioned for him to get up and said with a smile: "I listened to you stroking the piano and singing, the sound of the piano is long, the singing voice is clear, very good." ”

Zheng Qiao owed a debt and said shyly: "Zhaoyi has a good reputation, listening to Mrs. Li's words that Zhaoyi's piano skills are excellent, how dare the little girl show off in front of Zhaoyi." ”

Hearing her words, He smiled lightly and said, "That's Mrs. Lily praising me, I'm just a child who likes the piano." ”

beckoned and motioned Zheng Qiao to approach, and He said: "I am your age, and the sound of the piano is not as good as yours." ”

The girl approached, her eyes drooping shyly.

Seeing this scene, Li glanced at Concubine Zheng, who understood at the moment, got up and sighed lightly, and said: "Buck'er has also been happy with the piano since she was a child, just like a lady, but the concubine's brother doesn't understand music theory and hasn't found a good teacher for her. ”

Seeing that He listened carefully, Zheng was overjoyed, so he continued: "The concubine is about to give birth in the near future, and her heart is a little dry, so she begged His Majesty to bring buckwheat into the palace to accompany her." Today, I have to meet Zhaoyi, the concubine looks at her and Zhaoyi, if Zhaoyi does not give up, she will guide the buckwheat piano skills in one or two, and it can also make it grow. ”

He heard Zheng's words, and knew that if he rejected Zheng at this time, he would be embarrassed. In addition, Zheng Qiao is really likable, and she is good at stroking the piano, and she also loves it in her heart.

He said to Zheng: "I am not good at learning, how dare I take on the responsibility of a good teacher." If buckwheat is happy, just go to Yide Yuan on weekdays, and I will stroke the piano with it, and reunite the piano music. ”

Both the Li and Zheng families were overjoyed when they heard this.
