The next day, Mingruo woke up very early. When she opened her eyes, she looked at her boss Haochen's deep eyes with silver-purple pupils. His eyes were full of tenderness and doting, which seemed to capture people's soul.
"Good morning." Mingruo said good morning to Si Haochen with a smile, shook his head and got out of bed.
"Morning." Si Haochen held his wrist, pulled it into his arms and hugged him, "I didn't sleep well last night, I should sleep more today."
"I'm going to visit relatives soon." Mingruo rubbed her little face against Si Haochen's chest.
"The worthy concubine must first go to Emperor Danxu to ask for a decree, and then go to the Queen Mother and Queen to ask for greetings. It is estimated that she will not be able to leave the palace until the end of the afternoon, and it will be considered fast if she can arrive at the Duke's Mansion at noon."
"Ah?" Mingruo was surprised, "Isn't it too late to ask for the order before leaving the palace?"
"It's just a process." Si Haochen rubbed Shun Mingruo's back, "Are you feeling better today?"
"Yeah." Mingruo has long known that nothing in the world is perfect. Everyone must learn to accept the incompleteness and sorrow of life, and then live it calmly. "Every festive season, I miss my loved ones more. After the 'festival' is over, I miss them less."
.”
"..." Si Haochen hugged the little person with soft brows and slightly curved lips closer in his arms. He knew that a smile did not necessarily mean happiness, but could only show that she was strong. "Will you take me with you when visiting relatives?"
?”
Mingruo shook his head: "The Duke's Mansion is already full of people waiting to welcome the Concubine Xian. His Royal Highness Prince Yun is here. I'm afraid it will be too busy."
"You actually left your husband at home and went out to play by yourself. Wouldn't your conscience hurt?" He pinched the tip of Mingruo's nose.
"Of course not, because I have no conscience!" Mingruo pushed Si Haochen away and jumped out of bed.
"Ahem." Si Haochen almost choked to death. This girl...'has no conscience' can be said so confidently!
Zisu and Jixue brought hot water to serve. Mingruo washed up and put on a set of aqua blue palace clothes embroidered with auspicious clouds and flying cranes. Si Haochen sat Mingruo in front of the dressing table and combed his hair with a jade comb.
Smoothly, and then wind it up little by little.
Ming Ruo thought Si Haochen was still wearing a single bun, but she didn't expect that he would actually wear a Chaoyunxiang bun. Of course, it was still as fluffy as ever, with broken hair falling on both sides of his face.
"Wow, the prince has unlocked a new hairstyle." Mingruo's eyes were bright.
Si Haochen ignored her teasing, looked at the clothes she was wearing, and chose a burnt blue broken gold rocker from the makeup package to insert into her bun. Mingruo picked out a pair of gold tassel earrings and put them on, feeling happy.
Look in the mirror.
"I'm really happy. I'll take care of it after breakfast." Si Haochen led Mingruo towards the small flower hall.
Mingruo had breakfast and was ready to go out. Si Haochen actually asked pitifully: "You really don't want to take me with you?"
"Uh..." Thinking of the beautiful scene of his grandfather and uncles sitting with him in the living room, Mingruo shook his head firmly.
"Sure enough, you have no conscience." Si Haochen snorted.
Mingruo tugged at his sleeve and shook it: "You can pick me up in the afternoon, okay?"
"What time?"
When did Si Haochen become so clingy: "You can do it whenever you want, okay..."
Mingruo saw a flash of light in Si Haochen's eyes and knew that he was going to 'become a monster': "I can't pick him up until after lunch!"
Si Haochen's small flame of wanting to take his wife back early was completely extinguished.
Mingruo brought the gift, boarded His Royal Highness Prince Yun's special carriage, and drove slowly and leisurely to the Jingguo Palace.
Today, the Duke's Mansion welcomes Concubine Xian to the royal family. The doors of the Mansion are wide open early in the morning, and lights and decorations are decorated everywhere in the Mansion.
Mingruo held Zisu's hand and stepped out of the carriage. As soon as she walked into the house, her aunt came over with a smile: "Ruo'er is here."
"Did I come too early?" Ming Ruoxiao asked.
"It's not too early to say it's early. After all, the old lady has been talking about it all morning: 'Why hasn't my Ruo'er come yet?'"
The eldest aunt took Mingruo to the main courtyard where the old lady lived. Many potted plants that bloomed in winter were added to the courtyard, and glazed palace lanterns were hung under the eaves.
"Old lady, your Ruo'er is here." The eldest aunt led Mingruo towards the main room, and the maid quickly opened the curtain.
Mrs. Su was sitting at the main seat in the main hall. Today she was wearing a first-grade court dress and a crown of emerald flowers on her head. She looked luxurious and solemn and said: "If Ruo'er is here, please sit next to grandma."
Zi Su took off the fox fur for Mingruo, and Mingruo sat next to the old lady: "Did you miss me?"
"Think about it." The old lady held Mingruo's little hand and looked at Aunt Ji, "Go and get the land deed of Zhuangzi."
"Yes." Mother Ji responded and went to the inner room to get the land deed.
Mingruo was a little helpless: "Am I here to catch the autumn wind today..."
"Haha, as long as you are willing to come, grandma is willing to be beaten by you every day." The old lady took Zhuangzi's land deed and stuffed it into Mingruo's sleeve pocket.
, I would like to thank you for the money in your hand, and you will live a more comfortable life."
"It turns out that grandma is afraid that I will be bullied. Don't worry, no one in the house will bully me." Mingruo took out the prepared pills and said, "You and grandpa take one pill of Qiwei Pill every few days.
, it is excellent for nourishing the heart. These snow velvet pills are for my uncles and cousins. It is inevitable that they will get injured all day long while wielding knives and guns, so be prepared."
"Why did you bring so many of such precious medicines..." The emperor only got a dozen of these holy medicines throughout the year, but her granddaughter brought out a lot every time. Mrs. Su was shocked when she saw them.
"I am a little miracle doctor, and I am still short of medicine." Mingruo pushed the brocade box containing the elixirs to Mrs. Su, "If you don't keep it, I won't want your Zhuangzi anymore."
"You, you." Mrs. Su poked Mingruo's forehead, "Are you still afraid that I will suffer a loss?"
"Where's grandpa?"
"Went for military training," Mrs. Su said with a smile.
"If my aunt is not coming back today, why is my grandfather still out of the city?" Mingruo knew that the old Duke had brought 20,000 elite troops to the imperial capital this time and was stationed outside the city.
"He didn't go out of the city. He was bored and training your uncle and cousins in the house."
"..." It's good to have children and grandchildren in the house, and you can still practice and play when you're bored.
After a while, the old Duke returned with the "soldiers". The young men came forward to greet their grandmother one after another. After everyone sat down, the second cousin Su Yang said with a smile: "This is the first time I see my cousin."
"You said so, just bring out the greeting gift quickly." The eldest aunt showed no mercy to her son.
"Um..." Su Yang scratched the back of his head and looked at his younger brothers, "What do girls like?"
Su Yang thought about which of the weapons in his collection would suit his cousin's taste.
Fourth cousin Su You said: "I don't know what girls like, but they definitely don't like things like yours - swords, guns, swords and halberds, axes and axes, hooks and forks, kidnappers and shooting stars."
