168 New Year's Money
With an order, the annual banquet ended here, and the drunken ministers left the palace accompanied by their families.
Other people's families may have a strong New Year's flavor, Yao Mingzhu's table of the ladies in the family, this year is not good, under the promotion of people with a heart, not tomorrow morning, these young ladies are arrogant and pampered and willful reputation will spread all over the capital, no in-law's family will be difficult to find in-laws in the future, there are in-laws' ...... I hope I won't be dismissed.
As for the person with a heart...... Li Xun deeply thought that no matter how much he thought Ling Xiaorou was unlikable, she was a girl loved by his own mother, how could he let others bully? If others don't repay this revenge, he has to repay it in a small way.
Since Ling Xiaorou has returned to Ningyuan Palace, the next family banquet with the palace concubines has no taste, which time in previous years was not the palace concubines fighting openly and secretly, you come and go, Li Xun has a headache when he thinks about it, rubbing his forehead and saying to the queen: "Queen, I can't drink enough, go back and rest first, you concubines are there......"
The queen, who didn't know that Ling Xiaorou had left the palace, nodded hurriedly, "The emperor goes back to rest, and the sisters are accompanied by concubines." ”
Li Shun walked to the empress's dormitory by two eunuchs, thinking that the emperor in the Chinese New Year's Eve was going to stay in his palace, and the empress was full of blood, no matter what, he must cook with the emperor who was 'invincible' today.
As long as there is a prince by his side, are you still afraid that those little hooves in the harem will climb to the top of your head?
How much the queen wanted to go back with the emperor like this, but she was reluctant to give up this annual opportunity to show her identity, the queen waved a small handkerchief and reluctantly said goodbye to the emperor.
Li Xun didn't look back, walked to the position that the queen could no longer see, and then turned around, where a small sedan chair had been parked, Li Xun got into the sedan chair, Fu gave an order to open the sedan chair, the emperor only took four guards out of the palace, and Fu took the rest of the eunuchs to the queen's palace, and no one could find out that the emperor was missing for the New Year.
I don't know when the sky is full of snowflakes, large swaths, Li Xun is sitting in a sedan chair, with a smile on his lips, instead of watching those palace concubines flying vinegar in the palace, it is better to accompany his mother, he has lived for twenty-two years, and he has never spent a year with his mother.
In the coming year, he will definitely take his mother back to the palace, tease his grandson, take care of his life, and never be separated again.
Ling Xiaorou shared a sedan chair with the old lady, stopped the sedan chair in front of Ningyuan Palace, and saw the lights outside the palace, so it was not lively.
Seeing the old lady and the prince returning to the house, as soon as the whip that had been prepared was lit, the subordinates of the palace stood outside the door to welcome the master back to the house.
The chief manager who waited outside the door handed over two beautifully embroidered bags, one for Ling Xiaorou and one for the old lady, Ling Xiaorou followed behind the old lady, and when she saw someone, she took out a purse from the bag and handed it over.
The people who got the purse all said auspicious words, and the whole royal mansion was full of joy, and Aunt Wang and He Louyu were waiting there in the morning, and when they saw a few people coming out of the palace, they asked people to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was placed in the dining room, several people gathered around the table and just sat down, the chief manager ran in from outside, whispered a few words to He Louyuan, He Louyuan rolled his eyes, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and went out to pick up people.
It didn't take much effort, Li Xun, who was covered in snow, was picked up, and the old lady got up slowly, but was stopped by Li Xun, "I came suddenly today, the old lady is not to blame, these false courtesies, don't worry too much." ”
Aunt Wang saw Li Xun's eyes full of comfort, of course she knew that her son had come out to accompany her for the New Year, and after waiting for more than ten years, she had been waiting for more than ten years, and she had finally waited for this day.
shed a few tears, and was persuaded by Ling Xiaorou, how unlucky it is to shed tears during the New Year.
Sitting around the table again, although the table was full of ordinary food, but after the dishes that Aunt Wang had sandwiched, Li Xun's cheeks were bulging, even if his stomach was uncomfortable, he refused to put down his chopsticks.
Ling Ruixi was a year older, begging for New Year's money from person to person around the table, and kowtowed to the old lady first, and her well-behaved appearance made the old lady very rare, and immediately asked people to bring the big gold lock that had been prepared earlier.
It was really a big gold lock, a finger-thick gold collar, and a half-fist-sized long-lived hundred-year-old lock, all of which were solid, and Ling Ruixi's head couldn't be lifted on his neck, so Ling Xiaorou had to help him collect it first.
Since Ling Xiaorou disappeared, the old lady took Ling Ruixi by her side to raise her, she really loved her as her own grandson, but she blamed He Louyuan for refusing to marry early, otherwise he was the same age as Ling Feng, and his son should be so old.
Or is Xi Qiu comforting from time to time, if the prince gets married early, can he still meet Miss Cousin? It's all fate.
Thinking about the lovely Ling Xiaorou, the old lady nodded, too, this is really fate, if you get married early, I am afraid that you will miss it with Ling Xiaorou.
But he is still angry about not having his own grandson, and he just hopes that in the coming year, he will let He Louyuan marry Ling Xiaorou back, and give birth to a big fat grandson the year after tomorrow, even if he has no grandson, his granddaughter is also good, as long as it is the root of He Lou's family, whether it is a man or a woman, she is rare.
What He Lou gave away was a short knife with a sheath inlaid with various colored gems, which was extremely sharp, and this thing could not be played with by children, Ling Xiaorou still helped to collect it.
He Louyu gave a night pearl the size of an egg, although it was shiny and beautiful, but in the eyes of the child, it was not as fun as a ball, so that He Louyu was not sad, this was the best night pearl he found in the emperor's reward, and he was disliked.
To say that the best understanding of the child has to be the child's father, Ling Feng gave a ball made of bamboo, tied with a colorful rope on the outside, which can be kicked, thrown and thrown, although it didn't cost a few copper plates to weave himself, but Ling Ruixi liked it so much that he was reluctant to put it down when he held it in his hand.
Ling Xiaorou was more affordable, a purse directly contained a silver ticket of one hundred taels, Ling Ruixi took it and looked at it, and handed it back, "Aunt, you help me keep it." Ling Xiaorou took the silver ticket back.
Aunt Wang also took out a cloth tiger she prepared for Ling Ruixi, the lively little tiger made Li Xun rare, he also had an almost identical cloth tiger when he was a child, which was also sewn by Aunt Wang, but unfortunately it was thrown away by the Queen Mother later, and it is regrettable whenever I think about it.
Now that he saw that his mother had given Ling Ruixi the same cloth tiger, he borrowed it with envy and took a look, but he remembered that he had sewn a pocket behind the cloth tiger's belly, and there were still some things hidden in it.
Reaching in, she touched a few small golden ankles, Ling Xiaorou knew that it was Aunt Wang's intention, so she stuffed it in with her silver ticket.
Ling Ruixi didn't let go when he saw that the emperor who called him uncle was holding the cloth tiger that Grandma Wang gave him, for fear that he would take away his cloth tiger, so he stared at Li Xun with a pair of eyes.
Li Xun asked puzzledly, "Xiaoxi'er, what are you doing with me?" ”
Ling Ruixi pouted, "You come to my house to eat, and you don't give New Year's money." ”
Li Xun touched his nose curtly, in previous years, others bothered about the New Year's money in the palace, he really didn't think about it, and he didn't bring anything when he came out, but he was told by the children as if he was just here to eat and drink, and he blamed him for losing face.
Finally, after thinking about it, he took off a jade pendant from his waist and stuffed it into the cloth tiger, and then handed it to Ling Ruixi, "Uncle Emperor came out in a hurry, he didn't bring anything, this jade pendant was given to Xiaoxi'er." ”
Ling Ruixi wrinkled his brows in confusion, in his opinion, this jade pendant was the same as the night pearl of Second Uncle He Lou, it couldn't be eaten or played, it was not as fun as the cloth tiger.
However, people can't say they dislike gifts when they give them, Ling Xiaorou taught him, this is a matter of etiquette, and in the end, Ling Ruixi still gave Li Xun a bow to thank him for his jade pendant.
After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Ling Ruixi was taken out by the maid to play football, Aunt Wang and Li Shun went to talk about the relationship between mother and son, and the rest of the people gathered in the hall to keep the year.
For many years, Ling Xiaorou has been alone, and the days when a big family is gathered together like this now are really warm and make her want to cry.
Ling Feng and He Lou brothers drank wine slowly, Ling Xiaorou talked with the old lady about homely things, and when it was over, a firecracker was set off outside, and the old lady yawned and was helped back by the maids to rest.
Before leaving, she stuffed a purse for Ling Xiaorou, Ling Xiaorou was stunned for a moment before she thought that this was the New Year's money given to her by the old lady, and took it with a smile.
He also said an auspicious word in his mouth, and made the old lady laugh with fine lines, "Rou'er is one year older, and she can get married this year." ”
Seeing that several men seemed to be still drinking, but they were all listening with their ears open, Ling Xiaorou suddenly blushed with embarrassment, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
After sending the old lady away, Ling Xiaorou fiddled with the purse, and saw that the three men were still drinking, and she didn't say anything at all, so she simply got up and circled around the three men who were drinking wine, and from time to time dangled the purse given by the old lady in front of the three of them, making the three of them have a headache.
Ling Feng was already drunk, waved his hand and said, "Big girl, go play by yourself, brother and the prince will drink for a while." ”
Ling Xiaorou pouted, this stupid brother, didn't she see that she was begging for money?
He Louyu laughed eatingly, He Louyuan waved to Ling Xiaorou quietly, Ling Xiaorou pouted and walked over, He Louyuan took out a purse from his arms, the big one, and stuffed it to Ling Xiaorou.
Look at this size, Ling Xiaorou was overjoyed, and sure enough, it was still her family's intimate, this purse looked like it had been prepared a long time ago, and it was bigger than others, but I didn't know what good things were in it.
He Lou saw that Ling Xiaorou liked it, and touched the top of Ling Xiaorou's head, "One year older, you can get married this year!" ”
Ling Xiaorou was embarrassed again, was this a marriage proposal? Count?
Ling Feng's hand holding the wine glass stopped in mid-air, and said faintly: "Our eldest girl is still young...... No hurry! ”
When the old lady said the same thing before, he didn't want to give face to the elders, but He Lou was far from the same, even if you were the prince? I haven't hired a matchmaker yet, and I haven't given a dowry, so what do you say about marrying or not?
The most important thing is that when he thought of the previous time in the imperial dining room, He Louyuan didn't give him face greatly, this person dared to throw face at his eldest brother before he married back, can he still be good if he marries back?
He Louyuan's hand that stopped above Ling Xiaorou's head froze, and Ling Feng's eyes were full of murderous aura, even if he was the elder brother of the eldest girl? If you dare to stop him from marrying the eldest girl, then send him to the front of the battle to practice, when he marries the eldest girl, and when will he let him come back.
