Because Lin Zhu got affirmation from Princess Changmin last time, he specially chose a pure day after the New Year and took Fu Dou'er to Princess Changmin's mansion again.
Firstly, I came to wish Princess Changmin a happy New Year, so as not to lose my etiquette. Secondly, Princess Changmin also missed Fu Dou'er. She had never seen her before, so it didn't matter. After this meeting, Princess Changmin fell in love with Fu Dou'er more and more.
, if conditions didn't allow it, she would have wished Fu Dou'er would be in front of her every day.
Therefore, after Lin Zhu sent the greeting card, Princess Changmin deliberately chose a day without arranging for anyone else to come, and waited for her and Fu Dou'er to come.
Although Mu Qiyue was free that day, it was a coincidence last time. If he met Lin Zhu again at Princess Changmin's mansion this time, it would be deliberate.
Such an obvious sign would make some people completely rebound. It would not be beneficial to Mu Qiyue and Lin Zhu's future plans, so Mu Qiyue could only endure it and wait for the opportunity to see Lin Zhu again.
Fu Dou'er, who was newly dressed, knew that he was going to see his great-aunt who was very kind to him last time, and he was very happy.
"Sister, is fourth uncle here too?" Fu Dou'er asked excitedly, sitting on the carriage. "Is the person who gave me the jade pendant that day also there?"
"No, they can't go because they have something to do." Lin Zhu's expression did not change and he shook his head slightly. But he was very surprised in his heart. How could Fu Dou'er have such a deep memory of Mu Qingqi? He had been mentioned several times at home.
.Although Lin Zhu did not deliberately avoid him, he never took the initiative to mention Mu Qingqi. So, is Fu Douer's attachment to him really the nature of father and son?
If this is the case, Lin Zhu does not want to suppress his desire to get close to Mu Qingqi. However, if Fu Dou'er really misses Mu Qingqi, Lin Zhu will only arrange for him to meet him under absolutely safe conditions. However,
, it seems that there is currently no such opportunity.
Fu Dou'er was slightly disappointed after hearing Lin Zhu's answer, but due to his childish nature, the joy of being able to play in Princess Changmin's mansion overshadowed the disappointment.
"Sister, I also want to play Cuju at my great-aunt's place. I had a great time playing Cuju that day." There are only three children in the general's mansion. Naturally, it was difficult for him to use his skills. Moreover, it seems that Feng Rongxuan and Haizi are much more flexible than him.
, so when they played Cuju together, Fu Douer suffered a lot. He could never outrun them.
In Princess Changmin's mansion, even the children knew that he was Princess Changmin's distinguished guest, so of course no one dared to win against him.
"This sister can't make the decision. You can just ask your great-aunt when the time comes." Lin Zhu said, feeling a little worried about this troublesome seniority. No matter which way you look at it, Princess Changmin is also at the level of Lin Zhu's grandmother. It's just that
From Mu Qiyue's point of view, he can only act as an aunt.
In this way, Lin Zhu became Fu Dou'er's elder. It was really distressing.
However, fortunately, Princess Changmin didn't say anything because of this, and Lin Zhu had no choice but to think about things of this generation for the time being. He always addressed her as Princess Changmin respectfully. Anyway, there was nothing wrong with that.
Although Lin Zhu's carriage is very good, it is not gorgeously decorated. Compared with other carriages of ladies, it is even a little shabby in appearance. On weekdays, no one would take a second look at this carriage. Although
The furnishings inside can definitely be compared with the carriages of some princes and noble families.
However, it stopped at Princess Changmin's house, which was eye-catching enough.
Last time we took the carriage of the General's Palace. Although there was no sign of the General's Palace this time, the servants got the instructions from Princess Changmin, so they quickly brought the carriage into the palace.
"Auntie, Fu Dou'er wishes you a happy New Year." Fu Dou'er's people just entered Princess Changmin's house and saw her sitting on the throne. Fu Dou'er knelt down and saluted Princess Changmin, and said all kinds of good luck.
The words came out one after another as if they were free of charge.
Lin Zhu, who was standing aside, broke into a cold sweat after seeing it.
"Okay, okay, my dear grandson, get up quickly." Princess Changmin looked very happy and hurriedly asked the servants to help Fu Dou'er up. Naturally, her hands were not empty, and a bulging purse was delivered to Fu Dou'er.
hands.
"Thank you, great aunt." Fu Douer smiled sweetly after receiving the New Year's money. He also opened his wallet and took a look, which immediately made Lin Zhu's head full of black lines. "My great aunt's New Year's money is much more than my sister's." He said in his tone.
It's full of flattery.
"Really? How much New Year's money did your sister give you?" In fact, New Year's money is given to children by their elders. Under normal circumstances, it would not be Lin Zhu's turn to give him New Year's money.
However, since childhood, Lin Zhu has never stopped giving lucky money to Fu Dou'er during the Chinese New Year. This habit has been retained in the capital.
"My sister asked me to take it by myself, and I could only hold it once with my hands. My sister said that it was up to my own ability to get as much as I wanted." Fu Dou'er said about the way Lin Zhu gave him lucky money.
Lin Zhu prepared a lot of gold ingots and put them in a box, letting Fu Dou'er pick them up with his hands and count as many as he got.
It's just that Fu Dou'er's hands are small, and he only relies on his hands to grasp, so naturally what he can grasp is limited.
"Then why don't we, our lucky beans, think about holding them with our hands?" Princess Changmin laughed after hearing this.
"Ah, can it be like this?!" Fu Douer opened his mouth in surprise and cast a questioning look at Lin Zhu.
Lin Zhu nodded helplessly. It was really embarrassing to mention this kind of thing in front of Princess Changmin.
"Sister, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Fu Dou'er regretted that he had missed a lot of New Year's money. Fu Dou'er's little face was full of regret. Fu Dou'er's reaction was so wonderful that everyone in the room except Lin Zhu laughed.
Got up.
"Sister, I didn't expect that it's been several years and you haven't made any progress at all." Lin Zhu said to him in a funny way.
Fu Douer's face suddenly fell and she threw herself into Princess Changmin's arms, "Auntie, my sister is bullying me."
"Hehehe, my aunt will give you the part that our Fu Dou'er has less." Princess Changmin smiled while patting Fu Dou'er's back.
Princess Changmin was very happy to have such a grandchild acting coquettishly and amusingly in front of Princess Changmin. She thought to herself that this is the atmosphere that the Chinese New Year should have. She also felt more grateful to Lin Zhu.
"No wonder, brother Xuan always gets more than me, even Haizi, sister is partial." Fu Dou'er complained with a little pout.
"You are too greedy. The tighter you hold on, the less you get. This is a lesson, and my sister also wants you to figure it out for yourself." Lin Zhu explained helplessly. He said in his heart, I also hate you for being so disrespectful.
So proud.
Because Fu Dou'er was talking funny beside him, Lin Zhu felt a lot more relaxed when facing Princess Changmin. Following the topic, he also told many interesting stories about Fu Dou'er's childhood, which made Princess Changmin very happy.
The people serving at the side were moved to tears because of Princess Changmin's happiness. Only they knew how lonely Princess Changmin was on weekdays. Because Princess Changmin had never married, she had no heirs. As she got older, the family members in the mansion
There were also few children's laughter, which made it look particularly sad.
Of course, it is not that no one came to Princess Changmin with their children. Although they were talking and laughing, most of them were deliberately trying to please Princess Changmin. They were not like Fu Douer, who treated Princess Changmin as an elder and acted casually.
Even Princess Changmin's personal steward mother privately asked Lin Zhu to bring Fu Douer over to visit Princess Changmin often.
The sadness in the words moved Lin Zhu's face. Under her seemingly noble status, there was also an unknown sadness. No wonder Mu Qiyue always asked her to be more filial to Princess Changmin.
Princess Changmin personally taught the emperor and Prince Qi, and then Mu Qiyue, treating them as if they were her own children. However, the emperor's heir Princess Changmin did not get close to them casually, after all, she wanted to taboo the emperor's thoughts.
If Princess Changmin gets too close to anyone, it will inevitably give people the wrong message about whom the emperor values.
Prince Qi has always believed that he only has one son, and Princess Changmin doesn't like Lin Qingyue, so she has not been close to Mu Zixuan.
Now that she had Fu Dou'er, and because her identity was unknown, she happened to be by Princess Changmin's side. So the mother in charge, who cared about Princess Changmin wholeheartedly, proposed to Lin Zhu.
Lin Zhu and Fu Douer chatted and laughed with Princess Changmin for a while, and then Princess Changmin took them to play in the courtyard.
The Cuju that Fu Dou'er had when he came last time was still there, so Princess Changmin helped him gather a group of children to play together. It was agreed that they would be rewarded for a while.
It was a great time to celebrate the New Year, and there were fun games and rewards, so everyone quickly started playing together.
Because Fu Dou'er has a good temper, even if there is a collision while running and jumping, he will not offend others, so those children can let go.
Lin Zhu and Princess Changmin were sitting in a house not far away, holding a heater.
"You taught him well." Princess Changmin affirmed softly. How could she not know that Fu Dou'er has a temperament that is not found in most powerful families. He is not pampered and considerate, and he is only six or seven years old.
It is already rare for a child to be able to do this.
"Fu Dou'er is like this. Except for grandpa and godfather, he is so open-minded to you. I think this is the reason for blood and family ties." Lin Zhu did not deliberately seek favors from Princess Changmin, but with these remarks,
But it really spoke to her heart.
What Princess Changmin fears most is that Fu Dou'er has no sense of belonging to them. Although they are blood relatives, they have always been raised by Lin Zhu's side. These relatives, including his biological father, are different. Even if he returns to Mu Qingqi's side,
It's probably hard to adapt too.
Lin Zhu's words just relieved Princess Changmin's doubts. She was even more happy when she heard that Fu Dou'er still remembered Mu Jingqi and often asked about him.
While the two were chatting and laughing, a servant suddenly came to report that Princess Qing was here.
"Why did she come here at this time?" Princess Changmin was also a little surprised. She looked at Lin Zhu and looked at each other with a hint of anger in her eyes. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
