Xiao Wenyu bowed and said: "The emperor atoned for his sins, and Weichen didn't come for Dali Temple." Today is not the Mid-Autumn Festival, Weichen is here to deliver moon cakes. ”

The emperor, who thought that something big was wrong, instantly relaxed, and at the same time became interested: "You kid, you will never look for me for personal matters, let alone give me gifts." Hurry up and show me why you suddenly sent mooncakes. ”

Xiao Wenyu handed the basket containing the snowy skin mooncake to the prince with both hands, and the prince set up the mooncake and began to test the poison, and the emperor also looked at the crystal clear mooncake with a curious face.

Xiao Wenyu immediately explained: "This is made with glutinous rice flour, flour, sticky rice flour and milk, etc., and Weichen has detailed steps here." Handing Fang Zi both hands, Xiao Wenyu continued, "This is the moon cake that Neizi pondered, Neizi said that it can also be made into other colors, and the specific operation is also written." ”

The emperor nodded, picked up the moon cake and took a bite: "Yes, yes, this taste is much better than the moon cakes I used to eat." ”

Seeing that the emperor was eating comfortably, Xiao Wenyu asked his father-in-law to ask someone to move the purple dragon lying snow outside the hall in.

The emperor looked at it and sighed: "It looks like a peach and a danxia, kind and enchanting, and it is the purple dragon lying in the snow." The emperor put down the moon cake in his hand, and asked the prince to go down and instruct the kitchen, and add this moon cake to the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet later, so that the imperial dining room could hurry up and make it.

With a see-through expression, the emperor said with concern: "Aiqing, you are working so hard to send moon cakes and flowers today, let's talk straight, what reward do you want?" ”

Xiao Wenyu's serious face rarely showed a shy expression: "Weichen wants to use his merits to ask for a fortune for Neiko." ”

The emperor ignited the fire of gossip in an instant, you must know that Xiao Aiqing's original match was the famous town of Kyoto, which made Xiao Aiqing live in Dali Temple, and the whole Xiao Mansion was lively for more than ten years.

I didn't expect it! Xiao Aiqing has only been married for half a year, and it has changed so much: "Aiqing, it seems that you are still very satisfied with the bride, and you took the initiative to find me for a decree after only half a year of marriage. I heard the prince say that now the Xiao Mansion is your wife Mu is in charge, and in just a few months, the outside world has been unanimously praised, saying that your wife is calm, dignified and polite, but the news in the house is leaky. ”

Xiao Wenyu bowed slightly and clenched his fists: "Weichen was frightened, which made the emperor smile." The Mu family is really good, after all, she is the daughter of the Bofu, although she is a little declining, but her upbringing is very good, if it weren't for the delay in age due to mourning, this marriage would not have been the turn of Weichen. ”

It is rare for the emperor to see Xiao Aiqing praise people like this: "Okay, then I will issue an order to canonize the Mu family as the lady of the three grades, and let the Ministry of Rites hurry up to announce the decree, and I still have time to participate in the palace banquet today." ”

Xiao Wenyu hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you for the emperor's grace, but don't be in such a hurry, let's announce the decree tomorrow!" Seeing that the emperor was slightly puzzled, Xiao Wenyu was rarely embarrassed: "Neiko just found out that there is happiness, the month is still shallow, and the doctor said that you should pay more attention to rest." ”

The emperor suddenly laughed: "Aiqing, Aiqing, I said why did you rush over, I thought I wanted the Mu family to participate in the palace banquet, and I was going to be a father after a long time, very good, Aiqing only had two daughters when she arrived, and this time she must be a son." ”

Xiao Wenyu is also looking forward to it: "Borrow the emperor's auspicious words!" ”

Mu Wan, who was celebrating the festival in Xiao's Mansion, didn't know anything, and Xiao Wenyu didn't say a word. Until the next morning, when she received the holy decree brought by her father-in-law, Mu Wan was still confused, and hurriedly stuffed several purses to her father-in-law to ask the reason.

The father-in-law was also surprised: "Didn't Master Xiao tell Mrs. Xiao?" Yesterday, Lord Xiao specially went to ask the emperor for the holy decree, and I heard that Lord Xiao also gave the emperor a new food, snowy moon cakes. ”

Mu Wan was a little surprised when she heard this, and planned to ask when Xiao Wenyu came back, so she instructed her subordinates to send a box of snowy skin mooncakes to her father-in-law.

When Xiao Wenyu came back from his lunch break, Mu Wan mentioned this matter, and Xiao Wenyu told Mu Wan: "You are worried about everything outside the house, and you have worked hard!" This is what you deserve, and besides, this Sanpin lady was exchanged for your snowy skin mooncakes and purple dragon lying snow, and I didn't do anything. Xiao Wenyu didn't mention exchanging merit for life, but Mu Wan also knew that it must not be so simple, so she didn't ask much, just wrote down this feeling. Invest in the peach, repay the favor, and take care of the affairs of the house by yourself, which is the greatest reward.

Mu Wan thought that her mother-in-law would be dissatisfied, but she didn't expect it to be unconcerned, saying that it should have been like this a long time ago.

The next day, Mu Wan returned to her parents' house with the gift and mentioned the matter to her mother, and Mu Mu patted Mu Wan's hand: "Silly child, what can she be dissatisfied with?" Since you got married, you have handled her family in good order, and now that you are pregnant, you can only be happy. If you were a boy, she would have offered you. You underestimate her eagerness to hold her grandson, although his family is a single family for several generations, he also had a son at the age of twenty, but when he arrived at his son-in-law, he was already thirty years old and had no son, only two concubines, do you think she is in a hurry? Mother only hopes that your child is a son, otherwise, she will definitely force her son-in-law to take a concubine, even if the son-in-law does not agree, she will force you to have another child as soon as possible, until you have a son. ”

Mu Wan has always treated Xiao Wenyu as a boss, and she doesn't care if he takes a concubine, but the child is her own, and it must be arranged: "Mother rest assured, so I have told my mother-in-law and Xiao Wenyu to promote the two concubines to concubines." Seeing her mother's confused and disapproving face, Mu Wan explained: "If my baby is a boy, the two concubines will not be able to move the status of the son-in-law, but will become a force if they marry in the future." If it's a daughter, I also have a way to make them filial to me, really help me take care of my daughter, and still think of me when they get married. ”

Mrs. Mu's eyes were full of relief, but she was a little distressed: "My son thinks far-reaching, I don't have to worry about you as a mother, but I feel sorry for you, I just became a wife, and I have to think so much about my first pregnancy, if I don't go to the steproom-"

Mu Wan hugged her mother's arm and said coquettishly: "Mother, if I didn't marry Xiao Wenyu, I wouldn't have grasped the power of the house so quickly, and I still have to look at the color of my mother-in-law, and I want to fight with my concubine." It's up to you to decide where you want to go back to your parents' home and what gifts you want to bring as you do now. That's fine now, don't worry, huh? ”

Mrs. Mu nodded, this is the truth, and told Mu Wan to pay more attention to her body during pregnancy, and she talked a lot about it, and Mu Wan also responded with a smile.

It was not early, and Mu Wan had a beautiful meal at her mother's house before taking the carriage back home. In the carriage, Mu Wan had a serious face, and there was one thing Mu Wan didn't tell Mrs. Mu: she really didn't mind whether Xiao Wenyu took a concubine, but she didn't mind sharing a cucumber. If there really is such a day, it is not clear what Mu Wan will do.
