In the middle of the night, the moon is in the middle of the sky, the bright moon is shining, the shadows of the trees are slanting on the wall, and the late night that should be silent is indeed brilliant at this time, and it is a lively and festive scene. Huizhu leaned on the thick seat, casually glanced at the Wulanala clan who was saying auspicious words, then lowered her eyes, doted on Hongli who was lying in her arms and napping for a while, and couldn't help but raise her right hand to cover her face, yawned a little, and forced her face to sleep.

Thinking that he entered the palace early in the morning, the Wulanala clan was also tired at this time, and after three or five sentences, he ordered Xiao Luzi to divide the silver, and the form of the age was more than half over.

After everyone and the warm hall, the waiter set off firecrackers, "crackling" a loud sound, but drove away a lot of sleepiness, that is, Hongli and Hongday brothers were also noisy to wake up, seeing that fireworks and firecrackers were lit, happily clapping their palms, while shouting with the sound of firecrackers.

The lit salute stopped, and the maids also put the dishes one after another, and the crystal and lovely dumplings were placed in the pastel melon-patterned dishes, which made people have a great appetite to see. Huizhu hurriedly beckoned Hongli to come over, picked up one and fed it to Hongli, and bit it down, and then there was a soft sound of "knock", and Hongli frowned and looked at Huizhu. Huizhu was startled, and even reached out to rest on Hongli's chin, and said urgently: "Don't swallow it, spit it out quickly." Hongli pursed his lips and spit out a gold coin with an unhappy face.

When the old lady who was waiting next to her saw it, she immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations to the little brother, I have eaten the dumplings, and the wealth is rolling in." The words fell, a pretty girl wearing red and green had already held a big lotus leaf-style red lacquer plate over, which contained a decorative auspicious rich purse, and said with a smile: "Please Hongli Brother take the rich bag and ask for a good fortune." ”

Everyone was attracted by this scene, only to hear the Wulanala clan laugh and say: "Good Caitou, Good Caitou, this long live Lord just gave a reward of a thousand taels of purse, and now he has eaten Cai Dumplings, it seems that our little Hongli is a little God of Wealth who recruits wealth." "The people present, like the Song family, the Geng family and other Gege concubines, are not qualified to go to the palace banquet, and they don't know about Huizhu's mother and son's courting, and they all look at Huizhu with a little stunned.

Song was the first to come back to his senses, and hurriedly continued: "What Fu Jin said is that the concubine looks at Brother Hongli is face of happiness, according to the old saying, the child's earlobes are thick, and he will be rich and noble in the future, it seems that this is really the case." Everyone had different thoughts, although they couldn't figure out what happened to Huizhu's mother and son in the palace, but they all said words of praise on their faces.

Hongli was young, how could he pay attention to the mixed words of the adults, I saw him pick up two purses from the tray, and after a few knocks, he ran to the next table, and took one of the purses to Hongday, who was crooked in Geng's arms, and ran back to Huizhu at once, and ate the half-bitten dumpling. Hongday's dumplings were eating Zhenghuan, Leng Buding was startled by Hongli's actions, the dumplings fell to the ground, pouted, and the dripping round eyes immediately misted, and he was about to cry, Geng Shi hurriedly grabbed the purse and shook it in his hand, which was funny and coaxing, and only then stabilized Hongday, who was about to cry.

Everyone saw that the two children looked interesting, and it was the New Year, the two brothers were chubby, dressed in a festive dress, just like two glutinous rice dumplings, which were cute, attracting everyone, laughing in twos and threes, but the atmosphere was warm, and for a while, the banquet was full of joy, laughing and laughing.

Li Shi glanced at Hongshi, who was sitting on the side, and felt jealous in his heart, and saw that Yinzhen also looked at Huizhu's mother and son from time to time, and it was even more sour, but he couldn't say anything unpleasant, or he stumbled Huizhu. At this moment, the mood fell to the bottom, and he sat on the side meaninglessly, but suddenly saw that Nian's was also unhappy, staring at Huizhu's mother and son secretly sneered, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, changed his mind, retracted his gaze, and slowly ate the dumplings, which was considered a courtesy.

After eating dumplings, Yinzhen gave Hongshi, Hongli, and Hongday red envelopes, and said a few words of admonition. Everyone knows that this day, Yinzhen must stay in the main courtyard of the Wulanala clan, and if he goes back to rest, he also thinks that he will stay and greet him, so he will support the support of the maid ring, yawn and leave, and go back to his own room to clean up and sleep.

At this time, Huizhu waited for Hongli to sleep in his wide clothes, and was about to move the lamp to the bed, when he saw Xiaojuan enter the bedroom, and said in a blessed manner: "Master, Father-in-law Lu asks to see, if the master sleeps, then forget it." Huizhu frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded in response.

In the main hall room, when Xiao Luzi was waiting in place, he saw Huizhu coming over with his head scattered and a robe on his cover, knowing that he was about to sleep, he hurriedly bowed down and beat Qian'er, and apologized: "The slave is not, he disturbed Niu Hulu Fujin." Huizhu yawned again, walked up to the top and sat down, and asked directly: "Where are so many courtesies, get up." It's so late, Grandpa Lu is still here, but what's the matter? ”

Xiao Luzi said with a smile: "Little things, small things, it is the Western painting rewarded by the long live master, the master will collect it for you, and let the slave send it to you." Huizhu stared at Xiao Luzi, and said in her heart, "Even if it is a painting appreciated by Emperor Kangxi, there is no need to rush to send it over this night," but he didn't say anything, and waited for Xiao Luzi to continue with a light smile.

Xiao Luzi saw that Huizhu didn't answer, and secretly pondered for a while, or raised his head and quietly glanced at Huizhu, he didn't want to, but he just met Huizhu's eyes, and reacted all of a sudden, his face rose red, and he sipped in his heart to be a villain secretly, it was better to speak directly, so he said a few happy words, and then euphemistically explained the intention, and said: "Niu Hulu Fujin, you are now a double body, you can't stand it, and people are easy to get tired, but now it's the New Year's Festival, and the banquet in the palace is indispensable, you need to go to attend." So what the master means, well, I just hope that when Niu Hulu Fujin goes to the state banquet tomorrow, you can restrain yourself and follow Fujin to attend the banquet safely. ”

After hearing this, Huizhu seemed to be scorched by thunder, and suddenly there was no expression on her face, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so she sat there stunned. Xiao Luzi didn't answer half-sounding, and glanced at it very carefully, then saw that Huizhu's face was unhappy, thought about it, and added: "Ye originally wanted to come over tonight, but you also know that today is Chinese New Year's Eve, Ye can't break the rules, so he has to stay in the courtyard of Fujin." In fact, the master is also worried about you, afraid that you will provoke the limelight in the palace, offend people, and treat you badly. As soon as he said this, he was stopped by Huizhu waving his hand, so he had to stand and wait for Huizhu to give instructions.

Listening to Xiao Luzi's explanation, Huizhu was very bored, only to feel a slight chill in her heart, but more angry, what she was doing in the palace during the day, could it not be voluntary. Did Yin Zhen ever think that if she said a wrong word, she would be the one who suffered. Now it's okay, when you go back to the house, you don't have a word of comfort, but you still accuse her of not doing it, let her rein in, or send someone else to tell her to restrain herself.

A good one is restrained, a good one thinks about her, the more Huizhu thinks about it, the more angry she becomes, and she feels that this man named Yinzhen, a man she has been with for more than ten years, can be regarded as a thorough understanding today.

When it was dark, Su Xin walked into the house quickly and said, "Master, the painting that the master appreciated, the slave and maid have been collected by the slave and maid, and I will go to frame it and hang it up tomorrow." After finishing speaking, he didn't see Huizhu's reaction, so he looked up suspiciously and called a few times: "Master? "Huizhu woke up, swept Su Xin, and went to the bed.

At this time, the sound of more bangs knocked around, but Huizhu tossed and turned on the bed, thinking about Yinzhen's thoughtful behavior of caring everywhere for a while; After a while, I thought that she was frightened during the day, but Yinzhen asked Xiao Luzi to come over and let her restrain her own actions......

Actually, she knew that Yinzhen must be staying in the courtyard of the Wulanala clan tonight, but some things were accepted intellectually, but emotions were unacceptable. The mood that had eased up, but after Xiao Luzi's words, the nervousness and fear in the palace during the day, the anxiety and irritability of pregnancy, the impact of Huizhen's sudden death of Xiao Gege, and Yinzhen's lack of concern...... All kinds of emotions poured into my heart like a tide of breaking ladders, and I couldn't calm down for a long time.

The sound of the chirp was knocked to five times, and the tense mood of the day finally came to an end, and gradually came to sleep, hazy, as if hearing the sound of one's own sleep.

Huizhu gradually fell asleep at night since the fifth watch, but she didn't sleep for long, and when it was dawn, she had to get up when she was sleepy. Huizhu was aroused by Su Xin, and when she was dressing up in the mirror, she looked at the mercury mirror, her pale cheeks, and her dark blue eyes, secretly distracted, although her body was extremely lacking at this time, her mind was unusually clear, and her heart was even calmer.

Su Xin saw that Huizhu seemed to be abnormal, hesitated, but stopped the movement in his hand and asked, "Master, but what is not good, or what did Father-in-law Lu say last night?" Huizhu looked at the mercury mirror, smiled, and replied, "I didn't sleep well last night, and I was very tired." But because of this, I figured out one thing, who I tossed in the future, I can't toss myself into it, otherwise I will be uncomfortable at that time. ”

Su Xinxin still had doubts, but seeing that Huizhu was still in a good mood, it was inconvenient to say more, so he put aside this and asked: "Long live the painting that the Lord appreciates, but it has to be well offered, I don't know if the master wants it to be hung in the main hall or in the inner room?" Placing it in the main hall is an eye-catching thing, and Huizhu didn't want to think about it: "Frame and hang it in the middle, and you will watch the rest of the things." ”

Su Xin responded, and quickly combed her makeup, so she served Huizhu and Hongli's mother and son for breakfast, accompanied them to Shenwumen, and watched them walk into the Forbidden City with red walls and yellow tiles.
