Yuan Qingling comforted herself in this way, but in her heart she still hoped that their married life would no longer be these complicated chores or stormy seas. Who doesn't look forward to living a romantic world for two people.
With this in mind, she asked Xu Yi to ask him if he would be back early tonight. Xu Yi asked and said he would come back for dinner tonight, so she carefully prepared a candlelight dinner and gave it to the wet nurse.
Aunt Hexi also cooked a fried chicken steak herself, and also opened a bottle of red wine that she had brought back from modern times to sober up. She couldn't drink it, but she could take a sip. It was quite interesting for Lao Wu to drink the wine.
Yes, I will stick to her and say a few love words.
Alas, an old couple can only hope so much.
Everyone in the Prince Chu's Mansion tonight knew that the Crown Princess was going to live a life of two with the Crown Prince, and even the dim sum people didn't want to disturb them. Although they also wanted to have a candlelight dinner, their mother was a bit fierce tonight and said they were not allowed to participate.
No.
After Yuan Qingling finished the decoration, she went out and cut a plum blossom herself, put it in a jade vase, and filled the house with fragrance.
At the end of Youshi, the sky was getting dark, and no one had come back yet. In the past, if you came back for a meal, you would have to come back after Youshi, but now it's almost time, and you haven't come in yet.
The food was already cold, but luckily she put a charcoal stove in the room and could just roast it later, which would give it a different flavor.
The red wine had been awake for a long time, but before the person came back, Yuan Qingling sealed it first to prevent it from losing its flavor.
After waiting until Xu Shi, no one came back. Yuan Qingling was very hungry and couldn't sit still. She was about to call someone out to ask, but she saw Xu Yi helping Yu Wenhao come in, and Yu Wenhao smelled of alcohol.
, already 70-80% drunk.
Yuan Qingling couldn't help but get angry, but seeing him so drunk, she could only step forward to help him and asked Xu Yi, "Didn't you say you would come back for dinner? Why are you coming back drunk?"
Xu Yi said breathlessly: "Hey, don't mention it, I was planning to come back, but after the discussion, disagreements broke out and a quarrel broke out. Lord Ji proposed to have dinner together and talk about it later. In order to repair the two sides, the prince had to sacrifice himself to win over both sides and toast.
It’s considered a thorough process.”
Yuan Qingling couldn't help but feel distressed. The small court in the East Palace had just been established, and the rules of procedure had not yet been revised. There were always contradictions in the process of improvement, and he, the prince, had to make peace and strive for success as soon as possible.
"Okay, you go ahead, I'll take care of you!" Yuan Qingling knew that Xu Yi must have drank some too, so she asked him to go back and rest early.
After Xu Yi helped Yu Wenhao lie down on the bed, he said: "Then I will go back."
Yuan Qingling nodded, "Go ahead."
After Xu Yi left, Yuan Qingling sat by the bed and looked at him who was so drunk, and then at the table of dishes that she had carefully prepared, but it was wasted, and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Lu Ya and Qi Luo brought hot water over, and Yuan Qing Ling personally wiped his face and body. He was so drunk that he was unconscious and motionless, letting Yuan Qing Ling manipulate him.
Yuan Qingling asked Qiluo to make sobering tea, and asked Lu Ya to bring a basin of hotter water. Lu Ya knew that Yuan Qing Ling had not eaten, so she said, "Prince Princess, please eat first, and your servants will serve the Crown Prince."
Yu Wenhao opened his eyes in a daze and said drunkenly: "Ah? You haven't eaten? Eat quickly, eat!"
As he spoke, he raised his weak hands and slowly closed his eyes again.
Lu Ya then smiled, "I didn't even know when I was wiping him just now, but now I know that you haven't eaten. The prince is really thinking about you."
Yuan Qingling was also relieved. What kind of world do two people live? When they are so busy, hey, let’s talk about it later. Just know that he has her in his heart. The rest is just a formality. Life does not have to have this sense of ritual. I feel at ease.
That's enough.
Sitting by the bed and watching over him, looking at his face that was red from drunkenness and the bruises under his eyes from exhaustion, I thought that he had indeed been tired recently and was overwhelmed with everything, never letting go.
If seeing the sweet love between Man'er and King Shun made her feel a little bit of envy today, it was gone now. Lao Wu also held her at the top of his heart, that was enough.
After the hangover soup was cooked and served, Yuan Qingling helped him up and said softly: "Here, have a bowl of soup."
Nowadays, grandma prescribes the hangover soup in the house. It helps to sober up and protect the liver and stomach, with special emphasis on protecting the liver. She said that my uncle has a lot of social activities nowadays and sleeping late is harmful to the liver, so he prescribed the prescription for the house to prepare at any time.
Yu Wenhao felt uncomfortable when he was drunk, and his stomach had long been bad. Although he was groggy now, when he heard Yuan Qingling talking about drinking soup, he still reluctantly opened his eyes and drank it in one go with her hand.
Come down.
The soup was warm. After drinking it, my stomach felt comfortable and I felt more energetic. Qiluo prepared an extra bowl and asked if he wanted to drink more. If he wanted to drink it, it was brought to him.
Half an hour after the soup was finished, he went to the Ruyi Room two or three times to eliminate the smell of alcohol and became more than half awake.
Seeing the food prepared for him in the room, he couldn't help but feel guilty. He held Yuan Qingling's hand and said, "I'm sorry. I promised to come back and have dinner with you, but I broke my promise."
Yuan Qingling wiped his face with hot water again, making his forehead moist. The drunken confusion disappeared, and with a bit of freshness after a hangover, he looked at her quietly like a busy little mother.
He held her in one hand and came over to sit down in front of her, "Old Yuan."
Seeing this, Qiluo hurriedly ran out with a blushing face.
Yuan Qingling stretched out her hand to rub his brow bone and asked with a smile: "Do you feel better?"
Yu Wenhao pressed a mark on her cheek, and the smell of alcohol faded away, "I feel much better. Grandma's hangover soup is really effective."
"That's good. Do you want to drink another bowl?" Yuan Qingling asked.
Yu Wenhao shook his head, "I won't drink anymore. I'm a little hungry, so I drank without eating tonight."
He let her go, stood up, walked over to the table, sat down, and said in surprise: "There are so many delicious foods? Have you eaten yet?"
"I haven't eaten yet. I'm waiting for you!" Yuan Qingling sat over and felt a little pity, "It's all cold."
"Ask someone to heat it up, it's still edible." Yu Wenhao touched his belly, but he was hungry.
Yuan Qingling said with a smile: "You don't have to ask anyone to heat it up. They are all fried. You can eat them by grilling them on the charcoal stove."
As she spoke, she got busy. She had already prepared everything and just put it on. She asked, "I heard from Xu Yi that they had a quarrel today? What's going on?"
Yu Wenhao made a sound, and went over to work with her, "It's not a big deal, there are always disagreements. The newly promoted people are all young people, and they have different opinions from the old ministers. There is always no consensus on political matters."
Isn’t this going to cause a commotion? In order to stop it, we can only talk over the wine table.”
"Is the negotiation done? Is it effective?"
Yu Wenhao put his arm around her shoulders and said, "We still express our opinions, but there is no problem in talking about it. We will still work together in the future. They just deal with the matter and the person, so there is no big problem."
"Are you arguing about **? What else can you argue about **? Haven't you already decided on a strategy against **?"
