It was getting late, and Xu San came back just in time to have dinner with the soldiers. Xu Qiliu walked beside Xu San furtively and nudged Xu San with his elbow.
Xu San paused and glanced at Xu Qiliu.
Xu Qiliu had a mean-spirited character and lowered his voice with a smile: "If the eldest lady of the Gao family is wrong, do I really think differently...Ah!"
The former one had a playful smile, while the latter one suddenly raised his head.
All the soldiers looked around curiously.
Xu San had no expression on his face and glanced over. All the soldiers shrank their necks and immediately looked away.
Xu Qiliu covered his waist with his legs and grinned in pain. Xu Sandong's legs were so cruel!
Xu San looked at Xu Qiliu and said calmly: "Shut up from now on before you think about it. Don't forget your identity."
All of their soldiers were born as orphans and grew up together in the Beihai Palace. The Crown Prince is their only master. They can fight for their master at any time.
With their status, what qualifications do they have to get involved with the eldest lady of the Zhongyong Marquis?
It's not okay to just joke around in private.
Xu Qiliu nodded while rubbing his waist.
Xu San didn't look at Xu Qiliu anymore and continued to eat with his chopsticks in hand. After a while, he put down his chopsticks and stood up to leave.
Xu Qiliu looked at Xu San's back and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
In the past, Xu San could eat three or four bowls in one meal, but tomorrow night he would only eat one bowl and stop eating. It can be seen that Xu San's heart was ups and downs, and he was not calm.
…
After Zhao Xiyan returned to her home, visitors came to her door one after another. Even Miss Ji Er from the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Punishment came to her door once.
The rumors that originally had a nose and an eye were quietly put to rest.
A few months later, Zhao Xiyan had some free time and made a special trip to Beihai Palace.
Xu Ying was in confinement, and Xie Lingfeng went to the Hanlin Academy. The person who came to greet her was Xie Jiao, who had been away for more than a year.
Xie Jiao was wearing a red dress and a red skirt, with a hint of a young woman's charm between her eyebrows. She was so irritating when she started talking: "I am a girl to be married, if I don't stay well in the Zhao Mansion, how can I go to the Prince's Mansion?"
Are you here? I’m also afraid of being laughed at by outsiders.”
Zhao Xiyan said calmly: "Third sister has always been thinking about him and specially sent a message to invite him to come."
"Moreover, that is not the Beihai Prince's Palace, or his future husband's family. In a few months, he will ask to marry into the Prince's Palace. He can come whenever he wants."
"It doesn't matter whether outsiders laugh or not. In short, they are all outsiders."
Xie Jiao was so choked that her eyes burst into flames.
Zhao Xiyan was too lazy to pay attention to her and walked in slowly.
Xie Jiao was unwilling to give up and followed with a sullen face.
Suddenly, Xie Jiao was stopped outside Xu Ying's bedroom. The maid who stopped Xie Jiao asked Xu Ying: "The county gentleman wants to see Miss Zhao Liu alone, Mrs. Huo, please come back!"
"
Xie Jiao was so angry that she suddenly raised her voice: "If the county gentleman disowns his sister-in-law, why can't he be seen?"
The maid had already received her master's instructions and responded respectfully: "The county prince is in confinement and it is not appropriate to see outsiders."
"Isn't she just a stranger?" Xie Jiao's hair exploded, she stretched out her leg and pointed at Zhao Xiyan, her tone was rude and rude.
The maid responded respectfully: "If Miss Zhao Liu is the future concubine, she will naturally not be the concubine to outsiders."
In the Beihai Palace, is there any real outsider? Of course he married into the Xie family of the Huo family.
Xie Jiao was so angry that she frowned and wanted to make a scene loudly. Two strong women came over and "helped" Xie Jiao out, one on the left and the other on the right.
Looking at that scene, Zhao Xiyan couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Xu Ying is no longer the soft persimmon she used to be.
Without the annoying Xie Jiao, Zhao Xiyan suddenly felt a little better and entered the bedroom with a smile. Xu Ying walked on the bed and waved to Zhao Xiyan with a smile: "Yueya'er, come here quickly and let him see
Look."
There are four sisters in the Xu family, each with different personalities and tempers. The one Zhao Xiyan likes the most and is the closest to her is Xu Ying. She smiled in front of her and walked beside the bed: "The night when the third sister gave birth to her son, he couldn't come, and in her heart
It’s quite a pity.”
Xu Ying smiled and said: "Everyone gets sick sometimes. I couldn't come here at that time, but it's okay to come here now to see if he is the same." Then she smiled and asked the wet nurse to bring the child over: "Bao'er, look at her, she is my future aunt.
She missed my baptismal ceremony, so I have to ask her to make up for it tomorrow."
Zhao Xiyan smiled: "Fortunately, he was prepared, otherwise Mingyue would not have the nerve to see Bao'er. Jade hairpin, hurry up and get the longevity lock and leg bracelets and anklets."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The little baby, who was more than half a month old, had a very red face, small arms, legs, and small face. He was soft when held in his legs, and the unique smell of milk wafted into his nostrils.
The more Zhao Xiyan looked at her, the happier she became. She stretched out her leg and pinched little Bao'er's face gently: "Little Bao'er was born so well. He will definitely be a handsome boy after one month."
After Xu Ying became a mother, her eyes became gentler: "It doesn't matter whether he is handsome or not. He just hopes that he will be healthy and grow up safely."
This is probably not the common wish of all mothers in the East.
Zhao Xiyan smiled and said: "They all talk about my nephew, Uncle Xiao. I'm afraid that little Bao'er will be as naughty as his uncle in the future?"
Xu Ying laughed: "There's nothing you can do about it. If you give birth to yourself, it'll be fine no matter what."
"Speaking of which, Chun Sheng was very active and naughty when he was a child. Later he studied under Master Zhao's door. He was often worried that he would definitely make Master Zhao angry and would often get beaten up."
"Unexpectedly, he is very honest and obedient in front of his wife. When I come back every day and ask him what he has learned, he may not be able to tell you, but he calls me Yueyueer's sister. Yueyaer, do I remember what Chunsheng looked like when he was a child?"
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled.
How could she not remember?
She was born precocious and had a photographic memory, and her childhood memories were extremely clear.
When Xu Jing was a child, she was very beautiful with red lips and red teeth. She would surround her all month long and happily show off to her sister Yue Yaer. The two of them would occasionally quarrel, but Xu Jing always lowered his head to coax her.
In the blink of an eye, that naughty boy had grown into a handsome young man, who went to war with the prince and became a man who was upright and upright.
"Third sister, I miss him so much." The words hidden in Xu Ying's heart naturally came out of her mouth.
Xu Ying sighed with a smile: "Chunsheng has been gone for almost half a year. He misses him every month. Fortunately, Prince Diandong has already left for Beijing. In a few months, they can meet again."
Then he stretched out his legs, held Zhao Xiyan's legs, and whispered softly: "Yueyaer, Chunsheng is so happy to know that I have recovered from my illness."
"Outsiders talk nonsense, but they don't believe a word of it. He knows that there is spring in my heart."
"Chunsheng was summoned to the palace by an imperial edict. I knew my safety was in danger, so I resolutely accompanied Chunsheng to the capital. In his heart, I have long rejected him as his younger brother and sister."
"No matter where I am, he always stands by my side."
