Chapter 45: The Frost Embroiders the New Year
On the New Year of the ninth year of Jiaxi, Su An and Mrs. Su Gu Qiao did not enter Beijing, and because it took a long time to travel from the capital to Taihe County, Su Wu did not go to Taihe County to reunite with her parents.
Spending Chinese New Year's Eve in Mrs. Su's Mansion, even though Su Qian was on the side, even though Mrs. Su and Su Qian's parents treated Su Qian very well, Su Yu always felt that it was not a taste, and she quit early.
The first month is an important time to visit relatives and friends, both parents are in Taihe County, and most of the relatives live in Xi County, where Su An once served, and there are no relatives in the capital, except for Su Qian, Su Wu also has no particularly good family daughters, so she quietly looked at the books in the house alone.
Nianjun, the little fox, has been mixed with Su Wu, different from the ordinary indefinite jade fox, Nianjun is obviously domesticated, and I don't know why, especially like to be intimate with Su Wu, when Su Wu reads a book, it likes to jump on Su Wu's shoulder and lick Su Wu's cheeks, or lie on the scroll like a fool, with this little thing, Su Wu didn't feel that this New Year was too lonely.
On this day, Zhishu excitedly opened the heavy door curtain and said happily: "Miss! His Royal Highness King Ning is here! ”
"What?!"
When Su Wu heard this, she stood up suddenly, the scroll didn't hold it steady, and it fell, and Nianjun, who was crawling around Su Wan, was unprepared, and was hit by the scroll, whimpered in pain, and ran into the room.
Su Wu was in a certain joy, and she didn't notice Nianjun, and when she saw her young lady's appearance, she smiled even more happily: "Prince Ning is outside." ”
Su Wu sat down, calmed down, and called, "Zhili, come and dress me." ”
Zhili was about to pick up the croissant comb on the dressing table, and the next moment, the door curtain was opened again, and a clear voice came: "See me, don't be so troublesome." ”
Su Wu looked at Lu Mengjun's figure, and began to look at his jade-like face, and there was an inexplicable emotional surge.
Lu Mengjun is also looking at Su Wu seriously, she is still so thin, even if she wears so thick in winter, she is still thinner than ordinary people, but the temperament around her body has not changed.
After looking at it for a long time, Su Wan looked away and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince is fine." ”
Lu Mengjun was stunned and asked, "What are you calling me?" ”
Before the words fell, a white thing burst out of the house, and it stood in front of Lu Mengjun, looking up at Lu Mengjun.
Lu Mengjun looked at the fox in front of him curiously, and asked with a smile: "When did you buy a little fox, it's very cute." ”
Su Wu was stunned when she heard this, and subconsciously asked: "This is not you..." ”
Lu Mengjun was about to squat down and take a closer look at the fox, but when he heard Su Wu say this, he seemed to think of something, his eyes darkened a little, and then returned to normal.
Su Wu was immersed in the shock that Nian Jun was not sent by Lu Mengjun, so she didn't notice Lu Mengjun's abnormality at that moment.
"What's the name of this jade fox?" Regaining a clear smile, Lu Mengjun asked gently.
"Nianjun." Su Wu raised her head, looked at Lu Mengjun seriously, smiled Yingying, and repeated: "It's called Nianjun." ”
Lu Mengjun's heart moved, and he wanted to touch Nianjun in front of him, but before his hand could touch it, Nianjun ran away, ran to Su Wan's shoulder, and looked at Lu Mengjun with a hostile face.
Lu Mengjun's hand hung awkwardly in the air, naturally drew an arc, and then withdrew his hand.
Zhishu saw that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and said with a smile: "This Nianjun's possessiveness is too strong, I'm afraid that His Royal Highness the Prince is too good, and I'm afraid that the young lady will be snatched away." ”
Lu Mengjun then smiled gently: "Foxes understand human nature, it seems that this is true. ”
Gently stroking Nianjun on her shoulder, Su Wan's thoughts drifted a little away. Nianjun has a docile personality and doesn't recognize life, why does he see Lu Mengjun but he looks like a great enemy? It had obviously never seen Lu Mengjun.
Looking at the appearance of Su Wu's old god, Lu Mengjun smiled gently: "I'm leaving." ”
Su Wu immediately came back to her senses, and when she heard Lu Mengjun's words, she asked eagerly, "Why don't you leave without sitting down?" ”
Seeing Su Wu like this, Lu Mengjun's smile was a little softer: "No, this time I came to Xiguo to give a gift, I can send a minister at will, I want to meet you, so I fought for this opportunity, but I have to rush back to Huaguo to participate in the palace banquet before fifteen." ”
As a vassal state of China, according to the annual practice, the Hua State sends some officials to give some things to the Xi country, and then the Xi country returns the gift.
However, the so-called exchange of gifts, the value of the return gift every year is far more than the gift, and therefore, Xi Guo hates the person who comes to give gifts, because it means that Xi Guo is going to break the bill again.
Su Wu didn't expect Lu Mengjun to take such a hot potato errand in order to see her, of course, she didn't dare to delay, and reluctantly glanced at Lu Mengjun.
Lu Mengjun stood still, and said obscurily for a while: "I have read all the letters you gave me." ”
Su Wu didn't expect him to suddenly mention this, thinking of those letters that sank into the sea, she couldn't help but listen carefully to what Lu Mengjun wanted to say.
"I... I'm stupid, and I don't know what to reply to, so I didn't reply..."
Looking at Lu Mengjun's rare stunned appearance, Su Wan smiled.
Immediately thinking that Lu Mengjun was afraid that he would not see each other again in the first month, Su Wu couldn't help but be a little stunned, and asked, "When will you return to Qingyun Academy this year?" ”
Lu Mengjun reluctantly glanced at Su Wu: "Today in May, I want to perform the gift of a weak crown, I'm afraid I won't be able to come to Xiguo in the first half of this year." ”
Su Wan then remembered that Lu Mengjun's birthday was nine days away from herself, and nine days after her birthday, who was born on May 16, was Lu Mengjun's birthday. It's just that he didn't get to the end of the year after tomorrow, but he didn't expect Lu Mengjun to do the gift of a weak crown this year.
One of the things that is different from other countries in Huaguo is that men should have twenty weak crowns, but for the sake of inheritance, all men in China have eighteen weak crowns, which is why Su Wu suddenly realized that Lu Mengjun wanted a weak crown.
Su Wan smiled reluctantly: "I know." ”
"Take care of yourself." The last sentence dissipated in the cold wind with Lu Mengjun's departure.
Su Wu looked at Lu Mengjun's distant back in a daze, thinking about Lu Mengjun's future weak crown gift.
With Lu Mengjun's powerful position, those weak crown gifts must be either rich or expensive, with his current situation, I am afraid that he will not be able to compete with those gifts in terms of value, so it is better to start from the heart.
Thinking like this, Su Wu began to prepare for Lu Mengjun's weak crown gift half a year in advance.
