Ding Lan hurriedly stepped forward to take it, carefully holding it with both hands.

Zhu'er saw that there were still a few boxes left, and asked, "County master, do the slaves and maids also have a share?" ”

"It was supposed to be." Chu Liangrao wrapped her hands around her chest and turned her face away, "Who told you to hang my appetite, now I don't want to send it." ”

Several maids naturally knew that Chu Liangrao was talking verbally, and they all said that they knew that they were wrong.

Hearing the lively movement, Du's mother entered the house with the four Ma families and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?" Haven't you had enough of it just now? ”

"Mom, the county lord is handing out awards." Lilac replied.

"Awards?" Du's mother tilted her head slightly, and she couldn't figure out what Liangrao was doing.

"Yes, mother, you see, this is issued by the county lord to the slave." Ding Lan Xianbao seemed to have to show Du's mother, and said with a smile, "Mom also has a share." ”

Immediately, a few maids talked about Chu Liangrao's good words, and the room was chattering, and it was indescribably lively. Chu Liangrao felt that she should blush if she listened to these words touting herself again, and hurriedly handed out awards for them to rest for a while.

"Alright, I'm going to rest, you all go down." Chu Liangrao waved her hand and said.

Knowing that this was Chu Liangrao giving them time to see what was in the box, but no one left, Du's mother finally withdrew, pulled the 'door' to close it, held the box in her hand and shook her head with a smile. Ma Sijia said: "Isn't my mother happy to receive the gift? ”

"Happy, happier than the New Year." Du's mother said sincerely.

On the other side, the four maids have already gotten together, and now their relationship is like sisters, even if Ding Lan gets the best, they still talk and laugh, but they are much closer than before.

The gift is not expensive, but it is better than the heart, everyone is happy when they get it, and they are happier than receiving a big red envelope.

When Chu Liangrao got up from sleep, the dough she had pinched before was almost dry, Chu Liangrao put the little rabbit and the little hedgehog together separately and sent them to Chu Chaoyang's study, and the rest was placed on the dresser.

Chu Chaoyang got these two gadgets, but they were rare and seemed to be something, he took them in the palm of his hand and looked at them again, and then said with emotion: "It's worthy of being my 'daughter', even if you pinch a strange thing, it's so good-looking." ”

Ding Er smiled and said, "Lord Wang, this is a love house and Wu." ”

If Chu Liangrao knew about this comment, she wouldn't give it away even if she ate it.

Knowing Chu Liangrao's entertainment program in his yard, Chu Chaoyang was itchy in his heart, so he immediately put down his affairs and ran to the 'girl' house to play backgammon. Ding Er was roasting the fire outside, and Zhen'er saw that he seemed to be very cold, so she took out a roasted sweet potato from the charcoal ash with an iron tong and gave it to him.

When he received it, Ding Er's expression was slightly stunned.

"Eat quickly, it'll be warm after eating." Jen'er said with a smile.

After a while, Zhu'er came over and saw Ding Er eating her baked sweet potato, she pounced on Zhen'er and said, "You have taken out the food that you have worked so hard to hide and eat, you will pay for it." ”

Zhen'er raised her hand and knocked her on the head: "The county lord is hungry, you can't do it, you think about opening a small stove all day long, eat less, look, your waist, and your 'legs', tsk, I'm afraid it will cost two more feet of cloth to make new clothes in the coming year." ”

The two maids laughed and played for a while, and then they remembered that there was a Ding Er in the house, but they saw that Ding Er was not as hippie and smiling as before, he lowered his head and bit the sweet potato, looked at the charcoal fire and said vaguely: "It's so warm." ”

It's so warm, even in my heart.

After a while, Lilac came out and told Zhu'er to prepare two bowls of noodles to come in for snacks, Zhu'er responded crisply, and hurriedly went to talk to Ma Si's family, and Ma Si's hands and feet were neatly packed in a food box, and then Zhu'er was brought into the house.

Chu Liangrao, who had been defeated, was really bored, and her eyes lit up when she smelled the food, Chu Chaoyang smiled and accepted the chess pieces, completely accustomed to her appearance.

A small bowl of sour and spicy noodles was put into my stomach, and my body warmed up, and only after rinsing my mouth did I ask, "Father, do you want to have dinner here today?" ”

Chu Chaoyang didn't plan to stay until the time for dinner, but when he heard it, he was a little moved, so he didn't stay in the end, and went back to the study to work. Ding Er followed closely and asked, "Why didn't the prince stay?" ”

"Who am I going to do here?" Chu Chaoyang glanced at him angrily, "That sweet potato is delicious?" ”

Ding Er smiled innocently, scratched his head and said, "No matter how delicious it is, it can't compare to the noodles." ”

Chu Chaoyang shook his head with a smile and walked back to the main courtyard quickly.

Gu was a little accustomed to Chu Chaoyang's behavior, and only instructed his subordinates to pay attention to the heat and coldness of the prince, and the stove in the kitchen could not be extinguished, lest the prince would not have time to cook supper if he wanted to eat supper at night. was thinking about what else he hadn't told, so he listened to Xiao Yue, who was guarding the 'door', say, "Lord Wang." ”

Gu Shi was slightly stunned, since that time, Chu Chaoyang hadn't been here for dinner for a long time, and immediately stood up from the couch and walked towards the 'door', only to see Chu Chaoyang handing the sable cloak he had taken off to Xiao Yue, she asked, "The prince hasn't eaten yet?" "Let Dongxue hurry up and bring a cup of ginseng tea to warm Chu Chaoyang's body.

Chu Chaoyang said: "I haven't eaten it, have you ever used it?" ”

Mother Du smiled and said: "The princess hasn't used it yet, and the princess also instructed the slaves and maids to carefully check the prince's hot and cold." ”

"Just you talk a lot." Gu Shi feigned anger, took the ginseng tea in Dong Xue's hand and gave it to Chu Chaoyang, and she asked again, "Does the prince want to stay here for dinner?" After saying that, he looked at Chu Chaoyang expectantly.

"Okay." Chu Chaoyang took the ginseng tea, opened the lid, and a layer of hot mist hit his face, making him squint slightly.

Mother Du happily asked people to prepare dinner, and especially told them to warm the 'chicken' soup in the bamboo sunflower pot, and then serve it after the masters, and the people in the kitchen responded carefully.

Two cold cuts, four hot dishes, two plates of dim sum and a soup.

Chu Chaoyang looked at a table of dishes, but remembered the simple meals in Chu Liangrao's room, and after a meal, he only moved a few chopsticks, fried three silks, and used a bowl of soup to stop the chopsticks.

"Lord Wang, but the food is not palatable?" Gu Shi followed and put down the chopsticks, frowning worriedly.

"No, the meal was good." Chu Chaoyang said, "It's not easy to eat vegetarian silk on such a day." ”

"Isn't it?" Gu said, "If the prince likes it, let the kitchen make this dish in the future." ”

Seeing that she didn't understand what she meant, Chu Chaoyang shook his head and said, "No need." With that, he went back to the back room.

Gu Shi also lost his appetite, followed into the house, and saw Chu Chaoyang holding a book to read, so he walked over and pinched his shoulders for him: "The prince has worked hard." ”

After Gu Shi pressed for a while, Chu Chaoyang put down the book: "You can also sit down, you have to watch everything in the family this day, and you will not be easy." Sighing lightly, he said, "It's hard for you." ”

"With the words of the prince, the concubine is not hard." Gu said with tears in his eyes.
