244 people and months reunited
So, the matter of praying for Yunhao and everyone to join this festival was decided.
Liuli only plans to plan, and the specific implementation is of course supervised by Rui'er and Fan Yun, and the rest of the people are doing it, which is also very energetic, after all, the palace has been in the palace for so many years, except for the few days of the New Year, the rest of the time is really not so happy. And the group of subordinates who followed Liuli to the palace, many of them have never been in contact with this master, and now this aunt and grandmother have even smashed He Mansion, and He Lili has not dared to do anything to her so far, and in addition to being curious, he naturally has a little closeness.
Therefore, the preparations were quickly done, and on the morning of the 15th, Liuli sent Qi Yunhao out, and went to Rongxi Hall to ask for peace, and brought a few self-made moon cakes. Mei Shipi didn't smile, he couldn't say any expression, Qi Mulan was also there, and he reluctantly bent down to greet Liuli and retreated behind the screen.
Liuli doesn't care about children, not to mention that she is in a good mood, and she will return to Chaoqing Hall after making a appearance.
Walking into the courtyard gate of Chaoqing Hall from the plain and quiet Rongxi Hall, and looking at the red lanterns hanging under the corridor, the mood was suddenly different. Fan Yun was still beckoning people to hang lanterns under the porch, and when she saw her coming, she couldn't help but smile and greet her: "Please show grandma, in addition to our own people in the courtyard for lunch, grandma still has guests?" ”
Liuli originally mentioned that she wanted to have Aunt Su, Huanhua and Brother Ping come over to sit together, but it happened that Qi Yunhao was not there at noon, and they had a holiday together, so they could talk. But Huanhua said that Brother Ping had some cough in the past two days, and he was afraid that the wind would not blow, so he would not come. Liuli knows that she is afraid of illness, and she is not in the way, but she is afraid that Mei's wordiness will make it difficult for Huanhua to move around in the future, so forget it.
So I asked someone to pick up Aunt Su. After reading the book for a while, the person who went to pick up the person came back, saying that Aunt Su had something to say, and the old lady was not in good health, so she would not come. Let Ruri have time to go back and see her.
This is the second time that Aunt Su said that she would let Liuli go back, the first time Liuli didn't feel at ease, but this time she got up, and she always felt like she had something, so she decided to go back in a few days, or ask her out.
After thinking about it, he called Rui'er again: "Has the matter of the prescription been settled?" ”
Rui'er said: "I have been secretly inquiring for the past few days, but there is no gain. ”
Ruri hummed. Shen said: "There are a lot of people tonight, but there are more loopholes to exploit." If the man wanted to do it, at least a little bit of movement. You explain to Yuegui and the two of them, staring inside and out. ”
Although she put this matter down on her face, it doesn't mean that she really forgot about it in her heart. The main reason is that the prescription is so lost that even she can't think of what the man is going to do to her.
Qi Yunhao really came back early, Liuli took a nap, and he was already sitting and eating tea in the small flower hall. The two talked for a while, and the two of Lan Xinyuan came, and now they also came forward, and it happened that Fan Yun had something to do with Liuli. The glass came out. When she went back, Yuegui intercepted her under the porch: "Those two fox spirits are pestering the general, how can grandma come out?" ”
Liuli glanced into the hall from a distance, and saw that Ning Shuang was really talking to Qi Yunhao. Qi Yunhao was standing, and as soon as she turned around after hearing her, the two stood still. Because I can't see my face clearly from a distance. I don't know what it means, but from the hands he has been holding behind his back, there is nothing wrong with each other, they should just talk.
As long as she didn't do anything out of the ordinary in her house, she didn't bother to pay attention to it.
Walking back to the front porch of the hall, she coughed, startled Ning Shuang to stand away, called "grandma", and then walked in with a smile and said, "Since you are here, let's eat dinner together." "Since it is a reunion festival, the family does not mean to be inferior or inferior, just have a meal, and let them eat at the same table with the girls.
Saying that, he lifted the curtain and went into the house, Qi Yunhao came in, and saw her sitting at the kang table with her head bowed and flipping through the book, paused, and sat opposite her. Liuli didn't raise his head, and called: "Lily of the valley, serve a bowl of lotus root soup to the general." He was still intently looking at the miscellaneous notes in his hand. Qi Yunhao sat for a while, and suddenly said, "I didn't say anything to them." ”
Lily of the valley happened to come in, Liuli raised her head and took the lotus root soup and handed it to him: "It's still early for dinner tonight, the general eats first, pad his stomach." ”
The weather was sunny for a few days, and dinner was simply placed in the courtyard, because there were few masters, in order to be lively, so a few more tables were set up under the main banquet, so that the servants also sat down far away, and got up to be on duty in shifts. Then at the same time, you can also guess the lantern riddle on the porch, and if you guess correctly, you will come to Liuli to receive the reward. Considering that many of them are illiterate, the riddles are all drawings, and the difficulty is not high, they are just pictures for fun.
Liuli and Qi Yunhao sat down in the chief, and then below were the seats of the girls in the room, under the east corridor were a few tables of maids, and the west was a male servant, and there were more than a dozen tables after they all sat down.
Li Xing and the twelve people also came in today, and set up two tables under the north porch. This is also the meaning of Liuli, they follow Qi Yunhao day and night, it is said that they have no family, so after asking Qi Yunhao, they also summoned them in.
Qi Yunhao asked the two guards to bring wine, poured it for Liuli with snow on the side, and then filled Qi Yunhao's cup. Ning Shuang took the chopsticks to distribute the vegetables on the side, and when she saw Qi Yunhao looking at the Eight Treasure Duck, she put a piece of it in the bowl for him. Liuli lifted the spoon herself, and Ning Frost also sandwiched a piece of crab paste to her.
Liuli looked at the two of them quietly, and had a preliminary conclusion about their personalities in her heart. Ning Shuang looked at what was coming, but in fact, she didn't have too many brains, and everyone could see that Liuli was now a talkative person in Chaoqing Hall, but she still dared to use methods with Qi Yunhao in her grandmother's room, which showed that the grounding was not enough.
Of course, Hanxue is not a fuel-efficient lamp, but she can see this, pour wine and tea to Liuli's side first, although it looks unruly, but as long as Qi Yunhao doesn't say anything, who can say that this sycophant is not in place? From their first appearance to the present, Hanxue's etiquette seems to be correct everywhere, and people can't catch any tricks.
After Liuli finished eating half of the crab, she also printed her lips, pointed to a small square table vacated next to the Lily of the Valley table below, and said, "You guys go and sit down too." As he spoke, he took a sip from his glass. This wine glass is also exquisite, it is passed from the West, the whole body is transparent, like a whole crystal carving, the crimson wine is poured into it, and you will feel delicate and lovely when you look at it. It just so happened that Li Xing and a few people came over to toast Qi Yunhao and her, so she also drank a few more sips.
Qi Yunhao looked back and saw that her cheeks were crimson, so he stretched out the back of his hand to stroke her face, and said, "You are taking medicine, drink less." ”
Seeing this, Li Xing and the others immediately turned their heads and retreated. As soon as they left, there were a group of people who had guessed the lantern riddle and wanted to reward money, so the banquet became lively again.
There was a commotion in the Chaoqing Hall, and it was the same house, and it was completely different from the world when it went out.
Rongxi Hall was also having dinner, Dingbei Wang Xiong looked at Qi Yunke and Qi Mulan who were eating without saying a word at the table, and then looked at the people in the hall who looked like wooden stakes, and couldn't help sighing. People are old, and they are used to seeing life and death in the frontier, but now when they look at the silence of this room, they also feel that the atmosphere is as solemn as the battlefield.
Mei Shi sighed when he saw him, put down his chopsticks, and said, "But today's dishes are not to the taste of the prince?" ”
It's hard for him to say anything, after all, it's not easy for Mei to take a child in Beijing for so many years. So he hummed slowly, pointed to the hoof in front of him and said, "It's too greasy." It's already fat, what do you do with so much oil? "I think when I was at the border gate, I often didn't talk about oil, and if the food delivery in Beijing was not timely, it was difficult to even eat.
Mei Shi was stunned and said, "This is the prince's favorite dish!" ”
The king of Dingbei was also surprised, and then looked at this braised hoof, it was really his favorite food in the past. But why does it look and feel completely different now? He felt that he still couldn't get his mouth shut.
"Make a bowl of tea." He put down his chopsticks and said. Mei immediately got up and went, and Qi Yunke and Qi Mulan also stopped the dishes and chopsticks and looked at each other.
The king of Dingbei is even more depressed, even if it is the home of Zhong Ming Ding embroidery, he lives so sullenly every day, and he can't lift his energy during the festival, what is the point.
"Eat, I'll go for a walk."
He got up and walked slowly out of the porch.
But where to go? There is no one in the back garden now, there is no festival in the house, the people have already made a pile, there is a family to go home, there will be a few personal friends without a family, and it is not like him to go to the garden alone at night.
Out of the house? Everyone else has a family, how many people are like him, and how many people have no one to accompany them for the New Year? Younger, he really can't pull this face and go to other people's homes to beg for disgust.
So where else can you go?
Before he knew it, he had walked along the corridor for most of the circle, and further on, it was the East Cross Courtyard.
At this time, fireworks rose in the sky in the distance, illuminating half of the sky, and it was quite lively to watch.
He suddenly remembered that Chaoqingtang seemed to be celebrating the festival behind closed doors. I don't know what the fuss has become?
"Lord, I heard that the general and the eldest grandmother are hanging lanterns in the courtyard for the holidays, should we go in and take a look?" The chief who followed followed the detective and looked into the east courtyard. To be honest, who isn't curious about what Chaoqingtang is like right now? I heard that the grandmother prepared more than ten days in advance. He saw Steward Fan go to the yard to buy a few times to eat and play.
King Dingbei stroked his beard and subconsciously stepped forward over the threshold. But when he arrived outside the gate of Chaoqing Hall, he suddenly stopped when he remembered that Qi Yunhao had quarreled with him in the study last time, pulled down his face and said, "None of them came to ask me to be a father, why should I go to him myself?" As he spoke, he turned around and walked away again with his hands behind his back.
