Chapter 317 Compensation
Coming out of Sui'anbo Mansion, the wind in the winter moon was still a little cold and hard, blowing the curtain of the carriage on her face, He Changan sat in his carriage, the stove in the carriage was burning vigorously, not affected by the cold wind outside the carriage at all, plus she had a pleasant chat with Li Lin just now, He Chang'an was not in a good mood at this moment.
Li Lin is a good girl, there is no doubt about this, He Chang'an saw He Dingqing's unstingy appearance in front of his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for Li Lin in his heart -- if she hadn't been born in that environment, why would she marry someone like He Dingqing? But fortunately, He Dingqing has no great ability, and he doesn't have the courage to cause any big things outside, as long as Li Lin can manage this small family well, the He family will naturally not treat this daughter-in-law badly.
Back in the palace, Lu Cheng has not returned. Now seeing that Lu Xian is about to give birth, and before Da Xuan and Qianyou have also reached a consensus, it is only a matter of time before Lu Xian is canonized as the queen of Qianyou, and it is not appropriate to canonize Lu Xian when she is pregnant and giving birth to confinement, just wait for Lu to go out of confinement at will, and it will be more than a month later! At that time, when Qianyou was worried about internal and external troubles, Lu Xian, as a concubine, did not less match Lu Cheng and Jun Yuzheng, and now Lu Xian became a concubine, for Lu Cheng, it is beneficial and harmless. What's more, putting aside the awesomeness, Lu Cheng is also Lu Cheng's sister, how can he not want Lu Cheng to live well?
Thinking of the news from the Bai family two days ago, it was said that the fourth princess Lu Chengyi was pregnant, and the royal family and the Xu family meant that they had done the marriage in advance, covered the shame of a bed, and reported a premature birth or something, but Lu Chengyi was unwilling, and he would marry according to the originally agreed day, as for the child...... It was born in the palace.
Thinking of this, He Changan couldn't help but wonder, the daughters of the Lu family are really not fuel-efficient lamps, and they don't know what the three girls in their family will look like when they grow up!
Thinking of his daughter, He Changan's heart turned into a puddle of honey, remembering that Rongtai and Tianyou both like to eat that tea cake, so they had to go to the kitchen to make it for their two daughters. In fact, the tea cake is not difficult to make, but it is a little troublesome, you need to use Biluo spring tea to cool and knead the dough, and you also need to mix the finely ground tea powder and tapioca flour when kneading the dough, and finally you have to make the cake into the shape of a camellia. You don't need to put much sugar, this kind of dim sum is better than the fragrance of tea, and because of the addition of tapioca flour, the taste is excellent, and children will not hurt their teeth if they eat too much, He Changan will indulge the two girls like this.
Tea cakes are now a common food in the imperial capital Xungui circle, He Chang'an would have made it in his last life, but it was not very good, but now it is because the whole family likes it, and it is especially hard to practice, and it looks like it is done.
While kneading the dough, his thoughts drifted aimlessly to a long, long time ago, He Changan suddenly remembered that this tea cake, it seemed that Hua Nan thought that Lu Cheng liked to drink tea, so he specially figured it out, in order to try which kind of tea made of tea tasted better, Hua Nan tried almost all the tea in the East Palace, pulled her to eat tea cakes with various flavors and textures, and finally chose Biluochun.
It was easy to make the best-tasting tea cakes, and when she wanted to give them to Lu Cheng, Hua Nan hesitated again, pulled her shirt and said, "Sister Ye Jin, or ...... Why don't you go and give it to Your Highness...... You have to use more in front of Your Highness, and if you send it, Your Highness's appetite will be better......"
At that time, all she was thinking about was working for Lu Yuan, asking for credit by Lu Cheng's side, and she didn't doubt him when she listened to Hua Nan's words, so she was stunned and sent the green tea cake out, but she didn't notice the expectation in Hua Nan's eyes when she lowered her head.
Thinking about it now, fortunately, God gave her a chance to make amends.
The tea cake finally took shape into the steamer, and there was no need for her to stay here in person at this time, and after explaining the details that the girl in the stove room should pay attention to, she turned out of the kitchen, thought about it, and did not go back to her room, but went to Hua Nan.
Compared with when she first came to Qin/Wang/Mansion, Hua Nan's state is much better, and she no longer cries, she is leaning on the pillow at this time, holding a needle and thread in her hand, making small socks, the socks are made of fine and soft plain silk, and there is no embroidery, and the stitches are extremely careful, no thread is exposed, and then look at the size, I think it should be Hua Nan for the unborn child in the womb, and she doesn't know what song to hum at this time, the sunset at dusk slanted from the middle of the window lattice on her body, making her whole person look extraordinarily quiet and beautiful。
He Changan was there watching, and she couldn't bear to interrupt Hua Nan's calm at this time, she really felt sorry for this girl, since she had a memory, all the time was spent on Lu Cheng, but this kind of dedication, after all, will not get anything in return, just like her in the previous life to Lu Yuan - the only difference is that Lu Yuan is much more ruthless than Lu Cheng.
Nowadays, there is really nothing wrong with allowing Hua Nan to have some time to live for herself.
Hua Nan finished the small sock at hand, put the needle and thread back into the basket, rubbed the wrist of the right hand with his left hand and looked up, only then did he see He Changan, stunned for a moment, and was about to get out of bed to say goodbye, but He Changan took the first step and pressed on the bed: "Don't look at your body, what can you do at this time?" Others say that I am the princess, but between our two sisters, do we still need to talk about this false courtesy?"
Hua Nan looked behind He Changan, she really didn't bring anyone here, and there was less restraint in her heart, but she still stiffened her mouth: "Etiquette can't be wasted, my sister is now the princess." ”
"Okay, well, when you give birth to a child, I will rely on you as many times as you want to give me, but not now. He Changan scratched Hua Nan's cheek: "How is your body lately?"
Because she had thrown herself into the river before, Hua Nan's body was very cold, and Jiang Ming would personally come to take care of her body every other day, although she couldn't be as energetic as before, it was much stronger than the kind of paper like a person when she was just rescued, He Changan looked at Hua Nan's belly, and then calculated the days, seeing that it was going to stay up to term, but the belly was not very big, obviously the child would not be much bigger when born, so the only advantage was that Hua Nan could suffer a little less when she gave birth.
"Imperial Doctor Jiang is a person arranged by the prince, I have also been in contact with him before, he has good medical skills, and he treats me with care, so there is nothing wrong with my body. It's just that I still can't eat, kid...... It's a torment. If it weren't for the fact that this child might come in handy with the prince, I really didn't want to give birth to him......" Hua Nan said and said, and couldn't help but say to the child's life experience, He Chang'an mourned in his heart, this thorn has been pierced in Hua Nan's heart, even if it can be □□ one day, there will be a scar on that heart that cannot be filled.
She didn't want to listen to Hua Nan continue to say these self-defeating words, so she quickly changed the topic: "I just went to make tea cakes for Rong Tai and Tianyou, and they were still steaming in the pot. Later, you will make it for them to eat, but I am afraid that they will dislike my craftsmanship. ”
Listening to He Chang'an's words, Hua Nan's train of thought also returned to the past, and He Chang'an chattered together to recall many stories that happened before, and also told He Changan about her life in Fengqi Palace after the abolition of the prince, and the two of them chatted from the sunset to the moon in the middle of the sky, as if there were many, many words that had not been finished.
Hua Nan yawned: "At that time, it was so good, but it's a pity...... It's a pity that we can't go back to the old days. ”
Pregnant people are easy to get tired, and they don't feel anything when they talked about it before, Hua Nan yawned, and He Changan also felt that he was a little tired, so he gently tucked the corners of Hua Nan's back: "Although we can't go back to the past, but you have to believe in the prince, one day, we can live together in another way, although the environment has changed, but this mood and this feeling can never change." Okay, don't think about it so much, let's sleep......"
Back in his room, Lu Cheng had already changed his dirty clothes, leaned on the side of the bed and looked at a book with the wind lamp at the head of the bed, and when he heard the sound of He Changan pushing the door, he didn't look up, but asked in a deep voice: "She...... Are you better?"
He Changan walked to Lu Cheng's side, sat down on the edge of the bed beside him, blocked the light of the wind lamp, took away the book in Lu Cheng's hand with one hand, shook his head and said: "Although she is physically better, but if something so big happens, how can she overcome her psychological hurdles so easily?"
A touch of shame flashed in Lu Cheng's eyes: "I am determined not to live up to you in my life, but for her, I am ashamed in my heart, she has paid too much." ”
He Changan clasped his hands with Lu Cheng, and took his hand and put it in his heart: "I understand you...... I'm thinking, when this matter is over, and they don't remember that Hua Nan exists, can we change Hua Nan's identity and let her stay in the mansion to be your woman, even if it's just in name, it will finally fulfill her infatuation......"
Lu Cheng is not a ruthless person, this point, He Changan knows very well, there is no way to compensate Hua Nan, it is almost about to become a piece of Lu Cheng's heart, rather than let this matter torture several people at the same time, it is better for her to take the initiative. On the one hand, she believes that Lu Cheng's heart for her will not change in the slightest because of the guilt of others, and on the other hand, she is also willing to believe in Hua Nan and be willing to fulfill Hua Nan.
