Late spring and autumn are the two most comfortable seasons in Beiyuan.
In two days, Wen Jiaojiao was going to the southwest with Que Wu and the others, and he started to become more active, going out to play with Qi Yao, Wen Yanxi and other friends.
We played for a long time during the day and went to the palace to see my sister in the afternoon.
Que Wu waited at the palace gate early in the evening to take her home.
"The climate in the southwest is a bit humid and cold, which is different from the dry and cold weather in Beiyuan. I made you some knee pads and mats, as well as some insect repellent sachets. You can take them with you."
Xiao Qingyu showed all the things he had made to Wen Jiaojiao.
Wen Jiaojiao picked up a kneepad, stroked the fine patterns on it, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it, and there was a faint fragrance.
Her grandmother and sister had made most of her clothes since she was a child. Aunt Meng and her eldest aunt also made a lot of them for her. She never had to go to outside clothing stores to buy them.
Concubine Xian and Concubine De were also in Fengyi Palace with the sixth princess. The sixth princess Zhao Yun had a lively temperament and ran around in the palace, but she was not noisy at all and could have fun alone.
, it looks very worry-free.
Zhao Yun played by herself for a while, then ran to Wen Jiaojiao, half-lying on the couch and looking at her curiously with her big eyes blinking.
Wen Jiaojiao was holding a wooden carving in his hand. Seeing Zhao Yun reaching out and tugging on her skirt, Wen Jiaojiao reached out and carried Zhao Yun to the couch.
"Yun'er, let's play with this~"
Wen Jiaojiao took out a beautiful little ball from the sewing basket on the side and gave it to Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun was tired from running just now, so she took the small ball with the bell and sat next to Wen Jiaojiao.
Concubine Xian looked at the two children, one big and one small, and said with a smile: "Yun'er really likes Jiaojiao. She was never so well-behaved in the concubine's palace."
Zhao Yun will be two years old soon, which is when she is lively and active. Her temperament is very outgoing, and she will keep moving when she wants something or is curious about something.
But she never bothered Wen Jiaojiao, and he was quiet around her.
Zhao Yun lost interest after playing with the ball in her hand for a while, and looked longingly at a Luban lock that Wen Jiaojiao placed on the table.
Wen Jiaojiao was concentrating on carving the unicorn in her hands. It was Zhao Yan's birthday soon. She didn't have time to celebrate his birthday, so she had to give him a birthday gift in advance.
As the prince, Zhao Yan has seen all kinds of good things. She carved a unicorn for him with her own hands. Her thoughts are the most important.
"Bright...Bright, bright..."
Zhao Yun saw that Wen Jiaojiao ignored her for a long time, then reached out and pulled her clothes and called her.
Hearing Zhao Yun's milky voice, Wen Jiaojiao looked at her.
"Yun'er, you have to call me aunt."
Sister Qingyu is the queen mother of Zhao Yun, so in terms of seniority, Zhao Yun should call her aunt like Zhao Yan.
Zhao Yun's little head turned when she heard Wen Jiaojiao's words, "Aunt...aunt..."
Wen Jiaojiao looked at Zhao Yun's cute little appearance, smiled and pinched her cheek, "Yun'er is so good, what do you want? Is this it?"
Wen Jiaojiao handed the Luban lock on the table to Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun took over Wen Jiaojiao's Luban lock and instantly smiled. She no longer bothered Wen Jiaojiao and continued to quietly toy with the new toy in her hand.
Concubine De sewed the clothes in her hands, shook them and then made some gestures on Wen Jiaojiao. Looking at the scene of the two children sitting together, Concubine De smiled and said: "Jiaojiao likes children?"
Wen Jiaojiao raised his head and said, "Well, I quite like it."
Wen Jiaojiao didn't know whether she liked it or not. If all children were like Zhao Yun, she would still like it very much.
But if it's too naughty, she feels like she can't handle it.
As soon as Wen Jiaojiao said she liked children, Xiao Qingyu and Xianfei all looked at her with some unspeakable meaning in their eyes.
Concubine Xian smiled and said, "If you like children, Jiao Jiao can have a few by yourself."
Wen Jiaojiao's sculpted movements paused, and she discovered that since she married Que Wu, the elders around her have been talking about this topic.
How many children will I have with Que Wu...
Wen Jiaojiao really didn't have this concept. First, she felt that she hadn't grown up yet, and the relatives around her had always taken care of her as a child, so her concept had not changed.
Secondly, her health is really bad and it is hard to say whether she can still get pregnant.
In the past two days, the elders had been mentioning the child in her ears. She also wanted to ask Xu Yichen if her body could help her get pregnant, but in the end she didn't ask.
It feels like it’s still too early, let’s wait a few years before talking about it.
When she gets better, she will have the energy to take care of her children, play with them, and grow up together.
I don't want them to have a sick mother who needs other people to take care of her.
"What kind of child are you talking about? We, Jiaojiao, are still children ourselves. It's too early to talk about this now."
Xiao Qingyu changed the topic for Wen Jiaojiao.
Wen Jiaojiao and Xiao Qingyu looked at each other and smiled and said, "I want to be my mother's daughter for a few more years."
Xiao Qingyu put down the needle and thread in his hand and said to her: "Jiao Jiao must have grown taller. I already measured your height last year, so I have to measure you again."
Xiao Qingyu said and asked Qingquan to bring a measuring stick.
Wen Jiaojiao is also looking forward to it in her heart, hoping that she will grow a little longer, which at least proves that she can still grow taller.
The main reason is that Que Wu is too tall. She is already short. Although Que Wu is four years older than her, standing next to her feels like she is a generation behind her.
Seeing Qingquan bring the measuring ruler, Wen Jiaojiao immediately jumped off the couch and stood up straight.
Xiao Qingyu measured her with a measuring ruler and said with a smile: "She has grown taller, but she is growing a little slowly."
This sentence was really put euphemistically. Wen Jiaojiao heard that she had not grown much. After asking her sister, she realized that it had been a year and she had only grown a little over one centimeter.
Now it's only 1.53 meters, which is 40 centimeters behind Que Wu.
Wen Jiaojiao was silent, but fortunately, he can still grow. When he is twenty years old, he may be able to grow to 1.6 meters.
But Wen Jiaojiao was still depressed. All the female members of the Xiao family were over 1.7 meters tall, so why did her genes mutate?
She really doesn’t have high requirements, at least let her grow to 1.6 meters!
In the evening, Wen Jiaojiao had dinner with Xiao Qingyu in Fengyi Palace and prepared to leave the palace.
As soon as she left the gate of Fengyi Palace, she saw Zhao Yan standing on the long street outside the palace, looking at her from a distance.
"Ayan!"
Wen Jiaojiao saw Zhao Yan and called him happily.
Zhao Yan stood for a while and then walked towards her.
"Ayan, I'm going to the southwest soon. I won't be able to attend your birthday party. I'll give you the gift first."
Wen Jiaojiao originally wanted to go find Zhao Yan, but when he saw that he came by himself, he handed him the box in his hand.
Zhao Yan focused his eyes on the box in Wen Jiaojiao's hand and took it.
Wen Jiaojiao: "Ayan, open it and see if you like it?"
Zhao Yan: "No need, I like what you gave me as a gift."
Wen Jiaojiao raised her lips and smiled, "Well, I'll wait until your birthday to see it. It will be a surprise for you."
With that said, Wen Jiaojiao wanted to reach out and touch Zhao Yan's head. Zhao Yan saw Wen Jiaojiao treating him like a child, pursed his lips and took a step back, avoiding her hand.
Instead, he reached out and grabbed her hand, and then let go.
She is married, but he is still just a child in her heart.
Indeed, at the age of thirteen, he is still a child in everyone's eyes.
If he were older and born earlier than Wen Jiaojiao, he would not just do nothing and watch her marry someone else.
Power is indeed a good thing.
If he becomes the emperor, will he really keep her at all costs like his father and mother did to his mother?
In the days before and after Wen Jiaojiao's wedding, Zhao Yan kept thinking about it over and over again.
No matter how smart and precocious he is, he is still a human being, and everyone will have selfish intentions, but his selfishness is so hidden that he dare not bring it out in the open.
He has a clear purpose and answer for everything, but for Wen Jiaojiao, he has no answer, and he doesn't dare to be sure of anything.
Even if he has an answer deep in his heart, he is not sure whether it is his true thought.
Emotions are different from other things and can affect people's judgment. Zhao Yan doesn't want to have this kind of thing for herself.
He is a born emperor and should not have an affair, otherwise he will be like his father, who cannot get any love from the person he loves most even if he is in front of him every day.
But if he does this and balances the relationship between him and Jiao Jiao at a certain point, at least she will still be able to speak freely in front of him and smile happily.
