Chapter 204: Love is stronger than gold
Gu Changting unconsciously stopped his figure, and saw Xin Nian not far away smiling at himself, although he was not dressed up, this smile was more brilliant than those bright lights, which only made him look a little stupid.
Will Nian Nian feel the same way as me? Looking for it, I suddenly looked back and found that the person I was thinking about was right in front of me, and there was no need to look for it again.
Thinking like this, I unconsciously thought that I and Xin Nian had gone from being a teenager to today, which could be regarded as a lot of twists and turns, but fortunately, there was finally a good result.
Although Nian Nian doesn't seem to love himself very much, although his mother's death has always been a barrier, but as the years go by, everything will get better and better.
It was already the second half of the night when she returned to the mansion, Xin Nian watched Aunt Gu and Brother Chen enter her courtyard, and she took Gu Yufeng's six boys back to Qingliang Courtyard. As she walked, she yawned, and when she saw that the children next to her were still chattering excitedly, she smiled helplessly: "I don't know which naughty bags I just fell asleep in the carriage, but now I am refreshed."
Chunyu on the side said with a smile: "It's rare to be so happy, and the third young master and the sixth young master won a lot of lanterns tonight, and the prince couldn't stop praising them, isn't it happy, even my heart is sweet with eating watermelon for a day."
"In the winter, what do you want to eat watermelon? Instead, I went back to the small kitchen and cooked a pot of rice balls, gave each of the children a bowl to ward off the cold, and then let them sleep when I turned around."
"I already told me when I left, and when I got out of the car, I asked Red Sleeves to go back and order the dumplings to be put in the pot, and when we went into the house and took off our coats, we should be able to eat."
"Okay."
The master and servant returned to Qingliang Courtyard while talking, and sure enough, the rice balls had been cooked, so Xin Nian asked, "Did you send it to Aunt Qin in the West Cross Courtyard?"
Red Sleeves said with a smile: "I specially asked when I came back, and said that Aunt Qin had fallen asleep when she was in Hai, and before that, she had already boiled a pot and sent it to their masters and servants to eat."
"yes, okay." Xin Nian nodded, seeing that several children were eating happily, she also had a smile on her face, and said to Chunyu and the others, "You all go down and eat, it won't taste good if it gets cold after a while."
Chunyu smiled, "Who said that? I like to eat cold, and it's very chewy."
Xin Nian glanced at her: "Then you just put the bowl outside and freeze it, this day, it will cool you in less than half an hour, and leave it for another quarter of an hour, and see if your teeth will freeze."
Everyone giggled, and then they went out. Here Xin Nian told the children to eat slowly and not to be hot, she just blew a cold rice ball, and before she could eat it, she heard a loud laugh outside the door: "It's still a good atmosphere in your yard, I heard laughter as soon as I entered the door."
"It's Daddy."
The six girls all jumped down from the stool with a scream, Xin Nian didn't hold any of them, and the two little guys had already run to the door. It happened that Gu Changting entered the door, so he hugged one by one.
"If you don't come early or late, come here now, and look at the two monkeys, and you won't eat the rice balls."
Xin Nian was disgusted, and while stepping forward to help Gu Changting take off the cloak, he asked, "Where did this come from?"
"I just went to see my ancestor and told her interesting stories on the street. It just so happened that the eldest sister and Yao Niangzi Jiaru also passed, so I came out to you."
"Yo! It's rude, I think that the old ancestor may have fallen asleep at this time, so it is better to go over tomorrow morning, and I want everyone to go."
"No, Chunhua Fangrong didn't go, Jiaru should have been pulled by the eldest sister." When Gu Changting said this, he couldn't help but smile: "Eldest sister has been running diligently to Shouning Palace recently, if you continue like this, the old ancestor will not favor you."
"The eldest sister is the great-granddaughter of the ancestor, and migraine should also be, what am I afraid of? The old ancestor will not hurt Liuzai and Yaya because he loves the eldest sister."
Xin Nian hung up the cloak and said to Gu Changting again, "You put the two of them down, the rice balls in the bowl will be eaten." Would you like a bowl too? There should still be a kitchenette."
"It's okay to have a bowl, it's freezing outside."
Gu Changting put the six girls back in their seats and looked at the three children
After eating, his glutinous rice balls also arrived, and as soon as he ate one, Chunyu and Red Sleeves came in, only saying that after eating the glutinous rice balls, the time had also come, and he wanted to take the three children to sleep.
Yaya hugged Gu Changting and refused to let go, and said coquettishly: "Daddy is rare to come, let's play for a while, tonight is the Lantern Festival, and I haven't walked around the house with my rabbit lantern."
"You've been on the street tonight to see all kinds of lanterns, and you've let your brothers help you win a few, and you're not satisfied? If you don't hurry back and look at this hour, beware that your lanterns have been taken by night owls."
Hearing Xin Nian say this, Yaya thought about her lanterns, and sure enough, she no longer "fell in love". After the three children left, Gu Changting finished eating the rice balls, and the couple lay on the bed, Xin Nian said, "Qingliang Pavilion is almost repaired, and I plan to move back after February 2."
Gu Changting thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Let's wait for March 3rd, after February 2nd, there will still be some cold spring, and it will be bare everywhere and not good-looking."
Xin Nian smiled, "This season, where is not bare? It's fun to go by while the flowers and plants haven't sprouted, and watch the branches grow green until the flowers are in full bloom."
"You're really like an arrow." Gu Changting was helpless: "That's it, but take a few more steps, why should I stop it?" If you want to go, go ahead, and from tomorrow onwards, I will go back to the house every day to have a look, and I will have enough food and clothing."
"Do I need you? Won't I arrange it myself?"
"I don't need to be reasonable, but who doesn't know the cats of these high-ranking families? I don't go and supervise it myself, and those minions who worship the high and the low do not know how to slack off."
As he spoke, he stretched out his arm and hugged Xin Nian, and said softly, "The backyard of this mansion has been in constant dispute since then, I just don't want you to be caught in it. Let's tell them to make trouble, I want to see, how far is the trouble? But if you think that if you go there, you will stay away from me, and that is a mistake. Don't say it's just Qingliang Pavilion, even if you go to the outskirts of Beijing now, I will go there every day."
Xin Nian closed his eyes in the crook of his arm and smiled, "Am I a fool to say this? I thought that because of the matter of the concubine, you have a pimple in my heart, it is better to separate and calm down, since you refuse to let go, do I still want to push you into someone else's arms?"
"Hmm. I can't complain about your mother's affairs, I naturally know that I was a little uncomfortable in my heart before, but now it has dissipated a lot. It's just that you are asked to stay in the backyard at this time, and you definitely don't want to. It's what we said, you still have to take care of the kitchen, and the ancestors also like the diet arranged by Du Sanniang; Moreover, you don't have to hand over all the treasury, but also use the method of the day, when the use is packed together, the key is handed over to Jiaru, and you still take care of the key if you don't use it. In this way, I believe that few people will dare to look down on you."
Xin Nian said tentatively: "Actually, the treasury is handed over to the eldest sister......
Before he finished speaking, he saw Gu Changting shaking his head and said, "No, although it is my own biological sister, I know her, she is not a person who can help each other in the same boat, this key is still kept by you, except for you and the ancestor, no one else can, and I don't believe it."
"Okay." Xin Nian heard him say so firmly, so he was naturally happy to agree, and he was even more relieved: It seems that Gu Changting also knows what kind of virtue Gu Yunxian is, and this will be easy to do.
