Shen Qingru of Zizhuyuan was already very familiar, so he found a chair to sit down, and Mu Hibiscus poured Shen Qingru a cup of tea.

Xiao Yueli was holding an account book in her hand, and Shen Qingru asked, "How do you feel?" ”

The princess has been teaching Xiao Yueli to read the account books and the housekeeper for the past two days. Although these things have been taught a long time ago, they are all on paper, and the place that can allow Xiao Yueli to experiment is Zizhuyuan. And Zizhuyuan is methodical up and down, so that Xiao Yueli has no place to play.

This time, there are many problems in holding a birthday banquet, which is just for Xiao Yueli to practice.

Xiao Yueli pouted and said, "The housekeeper is really tired." ”

Lixia responded with a smile: "No matter how many people want to fight, they can't fight." ”

She has been with the princess for many years, she is half a servant and half friend, and she has watched Xiao Yueli grow up, and occasionally makes a few jokes.

Xiao Yueli blinked. Of course she knows this, as far as the palace is concerned, Gong Lan and the second wife are rushing to earn the right to be a housekeeper.

Xiao Yueli felt that the housekeeper was really tired, and hundreds of people in the house had to take care of it, and they had to deal with big and small things, and at the end of the month, they had to read a book of accounts. Tired and half dead, just for some oil and prestige.

It can only be said that everyone has their own ambitions. What she doesn't care about may be more important than anything else in the eyes of others.

"Sister Qingru, did she go back to the Hou Mansion in the morning? Isn't it lively? Xiao Yueli changed the subject.

This time it was Shen Qingru's turn to sigh. Xiao Yueli wondered: "What's wrong?" ”

Shen Qingru briefly recounted the matter. There are no outsiders here, and I am not afraid that it will spread out. The princess and Xiao Yueli are not people who love to chew the root of their tongues.

Shen Qingru picked and said something, and omitted those that affected the image of the Hou Mansion too much. Even so, Xiao Yueli was still shocked.

In her knew, she had never met such a person. The most important thing for the ladies of the family is their own image.

It was the princess who said, "Mrs. Ning Yuanhou is good to her two daughters, but she used the wrong way." ”

Shen Qingru nodded, who said it wasn't. The Fang family is so noisy, if it spreads, it will make Shen Ningru and the two of them lose face in their in-laws' house.

Shen Qingru only mentioned the matter of the other party's family, and the three of them didn't talk about it too much.

Shen Qingru and the princess discussed for a while and determined the dishes and guest list for the banquet. These should be settled in advance, and the big kitchen should be prepared. Invitations should also be sent out first.

In the evening, Xiao Yuan came back with the prince. In fact, it was the prince who had to follow Xiao Yuan, saying that he missed his grandson and wanted to go and see it.

When she arrived at the Forgotten Moon Residence, Xiao Ji'er was still there, and she had already woken up. I am playing with the big eastern pearl. was picked up by the prince. The little hand was unsteady, and Dadongzhu rolled to the ground again.

The prince didn't even look at it, and only cared about teasing the little buns. Baizhu, who has always been calm, trembled his eyebrows. Quickly pick it up from the ground, wipe it clean, and carefully place it in the corner of the bed.

She was a little worried, several masters in the house seemed to be a bit of a loser, but don't bring Xiao Shizi badly.

Xiao Yuan looked around and didn't see Shen Qingru, "What about the princess?" ”

Xiao Yuan has already been crowned king, and Shen Qingru is also a legitimate princess. However, everyone in the palace is still used to calling her the princess and the prince of Xiao Yuan. Otherwise, they will all be called princes and princesses, and they will be messed up. Shen Qingru didn't care, it was the same anyway.

"The princess has gone to Zizhuyuan." Baizhu replied respectfully.

Xiao Yuan nodded. snatched Xiao Ji'er from the prince's arms, turned around and left without saying a word.

"Where are you going?" The prince was angry, and the two of them didn't say a word all the way back, how could they look like father and son?

Xiao Yuan continued to walk as if he hadn't heard it.

The subordinates of the Forgotten Moon House all looked at it, and the prince lost face a little, strode a few steps, followed Xiao Yuan, and said casually: "Are you going to Zizhuyuan?" I haven't been there for a few days, so let's go together. ”

Xiao Yuan glanced up at him slightly, but still ignored him.

The prince was depressed. As Lao Tzu, he doesn't seem to have any majesty at all? The prince stood in place, thinking that Xiao Yuan would not call him today, so he would not leave.

Xiao Yuan didn't know that his father was making trouble. Of course, even if you know, you won't be at ease. Holding the small bun by himself, he strode forward, looking to go to the corner, and then he disappeared.

The prince was messy in the wind alone. Neither to go nor to stay.

The little bun was hugged by Xiao Yuan, his head rested on his shoulder, and when he saw his grandfather in the back, he stretched out his little fat hand and greeted him.

The prince followed again. Walking to Xiao Yuan's side, he "hummed" and said, "For Ji'er's sake, I don't care about you." ”

Xiao Yuan only gave him a "you are sick" look. Holding Xiao Ji'er away from him.

The two of them gathered their strength to Zizhuyuan. Shen Qingru discussed things with the princess, and when she was careless, she arrived in the evening, thinking that Xiao Baozi should wake up and prepare to go back. I saw Xiao Yuan coming with a small bun. followed by the awkward prince.

Xiao Baozi saw his mother and happily stretched out his little hand. Xiao Yuan's face also softened.

The prince watched from the sidelines, and his heart was delicious. These two people have teased themselves all the way, and the little one is willing to give up a few smiling faces. The big one is still expressionless.

The prince turned his head and thought of the princess for comfort. It turned out that the princess didn't seem to welcome him very much either. When I saw him coming, even the smile on my face faded.

The prince's expression was abrupt, reflecting on whether he shouldn't be annoying.

Shen Qingru was a little sympathetic to the prince, and found him a step down, "Father is also here?" ”

The prince was pleased, coughed, and said, "I'll take a look." He added, "By the way, have dinner." ”

The princess looked over lightly, and the prince straightened up. Zizhuyuan was not bad for this meal, and the princess didn't say anything. Lixia saw it and hurriedly asked the kitchen to prepare the meal.

The princess was willing to be close to the prince, and they were also happy. Although he complains about the prince in his heart, he can't really let the princess live a lifetime in Zizhuyuan.

It was the first time that several people had eaten together.

Xiao Yuan was silent, the princess was cold, and Xiao Yueli was quiet. The prince wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say.

Shen Qingru saw that he still had to come by himself.

Gathered his clothes for the little bun and asked, "What does grandfather like?" It's almost my birthday, and I don't know what to give. ”

Xiao Yuan said: "Whatever." ”

The prince nodded: "It's all right." ”

Shen Qing is like a black line. The two said the same as they didn't.

Xiao Yueli thought for a while and said, "Grandfather likes to drink the most. ”

The princess also said: "I like to drink, play chess, and have good knives." ”

Chess and knives are forgotten. She can't play a game of chess with the old prince on her birthday. Besides, she won't. The knife is even worse, and it's not good to send this on your birthday. There was only one wine left. "What kind of wine?"

There are many types of wine. Some people like the strong ones, and some people like the light ones.

"Spirits." Xiao Yuan replied. The old prince, like Cui Lao, also loves wine as much as his life. It's just that the old prince is more self-disciplined than Cui Lao because of his responsibilities. Usually only a few drinks, not drunk.

The prince said: "My father has a lot of wine. "There were a lot of them, and he didn't get them. When the prince was young, he often went to steal wine, and then was beaten by the old prince. So impressed. After so many years, my father's wine collection is estimated to be more. The prince smashed his mouth, a little itchy. But he is more than thirty years old, if he is beaten by the old prince for stealing wine again, where will he lose face?

Spirits. Shen Qingru's eyes flashed, she knew what birthday gift to give.

When Xiao Yuan saw her appearance, he knew what strange idea he had in mind, and couldn't help asking, "What do you want to give?" ”

Xiao Yueli was also curious: "Sister Qingru, have you thought about it?" "She's been struggling lately, too. In previous years, I gave myself the word "longevity" embroidered by myself, and this year I also want to send something novel.

Shen Qingru smiled: "I'm not sure yet, I won't know until I try." ”

As soon as she said this, even the princess was hung up with an appetite, and it was rare to joke: "What good things make it difficult for you?" ”

Shen Qingru's many ghost ideas are obvious to all.

Seeing that the princess was interested, the prince hurriedly said: "When it's ready, I'll take it to your mother first." ”

The princess's expression was stunned, and she lowered her head to coax the little bun and kept silent.

No objection is progress, the prince is happy. Xiao Yuan was dissatisfied, and used his daughter-in-law to coax his mother, thinking beautifully, and said lightly: "If you want to know, do it yourself." ”

For Xiao Yuan to always sing the opposite, the prince is used to it. I didn't care at all, I was still smiling.

Xiao Yuan saw that he was smiling like a second fool, and he was not interested in fighting again.

Soon the meal was served and everyone ate together.

The prince sat next to the princess, and then Xiao Yueli. followed by Shen Qingru and Xiao Yuan.

The little bun has arrived in the princess's arms.

The princess fed Xiao Ji'er a mouthful of egg custard first. I saw him swallow it. Sandwiched another piece of fish meat to Xiao Yueli and a shrimp to Shen Qingru. It's all the food that the two of them love. Xiao is far away and out of reach.

The princess hasn't eaten it herself. The prince saw that there was a braised chicken on the table, and sandwiched a piece of chicken for the princess. The princess's lips moved, but she did not speak.

Xiao Yuan frowned and said unhappily: "The mother concubine doesn't like to eat chicken." ”

The prince was stunned, "I remember that she used to like to eat ......"

Xiao Yuan said coldly: "You remember wrong. ”

The prince glanced at Xiao Yuan suspiciously, thought about it carefully, and affirmed: "She used to like to eat chicken. ”

Seeing that the father and son were about to fight over a piece of chicken. The princess said lightly: "I used to like to eat." ”

The prince showed a smug look. However, the princess's next sentence followed, "I won't eat it now." ”

The prince immediately wilted, "When did it happen?" ”

The princess said: "After giving birth to a distant son. ”

The prince's thoughts suddenly drifted to twenty years ago, and he was silent.

Seeing that the atmosphere was going to be bad again, Shen Qingru hurriedly said: "I heard that when you are pregnant, the taste will change greatly. When I was pregnant with Ji'er, I liked to eat sour, but now it's average. ”

Speaking of this, the princess probably thought of Huai Xiaoyuan at the beginning, and smiled slightly, "Yes." ”

The prince seemed to remember something, and said to the princess: "I remember that you also liked to eat sour food at that time, and you had to put vinegar in every dish." No one else can eat the sour. ”

The princess was stunned and said, "Do you remember?" ”

In such a sentence, the prince seemed to have been praised, and said a lot of interesting things about the princess during her pregnancy.

Shen Qingru and the three of them listened quietly, occasionally interjecting a few words. Only then did I know that the princess and the prince also had such a happy time.

The prince was also a little sad as he spoke, and seeing that the princess was seriously reminiscing, with a soft smile on her face, she hurriedly restrained her mood.
