When going to bed at night, the third princess was wearing pajamas, wrapped in several pieces of clothing, dragging her long sleeves, and suddenly ran to the back hall, humming, looking for her mother.
Grandma Chen and a few servants followed closely, looking helpless.
"I want to sleep with my mother!" the third princess shouted as soon as she rushed in.
She was wrapped like a little rice dumpling, ran to Ji Ling, took off the rice dumpling skin, and lay on the edge of Ji Ling's bed. Her little body tilted, and she fell into Ji Ling's arms, and held her hands domineeringly. Ji Ling's face was stunned: "Eniang, look at me! Take me to sleep!"
Ji Lingben had put several pillows behind her back and put a facial mask on her face - she taught Qixi how to cut the top-grade silk into the shape of a facial mask, soak it in essence water, and then apply it on her face.
At this time, the third princess pulled her and the mask fell off.
Ji Ling was startled when he saw her running over like this. He immediately said to Nanny Chen seriously: "It's a cold night and it's snowy again. How can the princess pass from the front hall to the back hall like this!"
The third princess pouted, her face full of gloom.
Ji Ling took her daughter into her arms first, wrapped her in a quilt, and then reached out to hold her little feet. She felt relieved when she felt a pair of little feet warm.
Grandma Chen was beside her. She quickly knelt down and helped the third princess take off her little embroidered shoes.
Ji Ling held her daughter's feet and put them into her quilt. She folded the quilt a few more times to make sure it was airtight. Then she wiped her daughter's head with her chin and said softly: "Xi'er, what's going on? ?Why did you suddenly come to look for E Niang?"
The third princess turned around, hugged Ji Ling with open arms, and buried her head in her arms. After a while, she asked uneasily: "E Niang, my brother is good, but I am not - does E Niang have a younger brother?" You won’t hurt me anymore?”
Ji Ling was startled and thought, what kind of problem is this? Then he thought about it and tried to figure out the taste.
She raised her head and glanced at Nanny Chen, then glanced around the surrounding servants, and said calmly: "Which of you said that?"
Grandma Chen didn't dare not answer. She stepped forward with a smile and muttered with downcast eyebrows: "I'm confused. I saw the princess playing for a long time and refused to sleep. She made a joke for a moment. Who knew the third princess?" Listen to it in your heart, take it seriously..."
As she spoke, she saw that the expression on Concubine Chen's face gradually became colder, and she felt frightened. She quickly knelt down, turned her head and slapped herself in the face, and said with a smile: "Damn it, my slave! This slave's mouth is not deep! Damn it, my slave!" Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
Ji Ling raised his head and said calmly: "Just step back first."
Several slaves responded and left.
Aunt Chen was still standing there, Ji Ling looked up at her sharply, and then said: "Everyone, get out."
Aunt Chen has been serving her for several years. She knows that Concubine Chen always treats her servants with kindness and will not punish her easily. Her face and tone like this made her feel very unhappy. She did not dare to distinguish anything at the moment and stood up immediately. He got up and left.
The third princess put her arms around Ji Ling's neck and shook her. Her tone was full of vigilance and uneasiness: "Eniang, please tell me quickly. Now that I have a younger brother, will Eniang stop loving me?"
Ji Ling touched her little head, feeling extremely distressed, and immediately said hurriedly: "E Niang promises Xi'er that E Niang will always love Xi'er."
The third princess was squirming around like a little pig in the bed, then she raised her head suspiciously and said, "But grandma said, if I don't obey..."
Ji Ling interrupted her and said, "Don't listen to grandma."
She held her daughter's little face and said word by word: "I love you just because I love you. There are no conditions, and it's not because you are good or not, let alone what kind of person you are - no matter Xi'er
In this life, whether you are proud or frustrated, mediocre or shining, my mother will always be by your side.
She paused, stared at the third princess, and whispered: "Because you are my child, my treasure."
The expression of the third princess relaxed obviously.
After a long time, she suddenly stretched out her chubby hand, covered the back of Ji Ling's hand, brought it close to E Niang's ear, and said in a sweet voice: "E Niang, you are my baby too!"
Ji Ling's heart skipped a beat, and she felt her eyes burning inexplicably.
The third princess leaned close to her face, took a deep breath, and kissed Ji Ling hard several times.
Ji Ling ducked away with a smile: "Okay! Okay! If I kiss you again, your face will be bitten off."
She said, but she couldn't avoid it and was kissed on the face by her daughter.
In the end, Ji Ling buried her head in the third princess' little Xiangxiang's body, and she and her daughter burst into laughter. Both mother and daughter rolled on the thick brocade quilt, laughing until they couldn't breathe.
After a while, she raised her head and said seriously: "However, you can't just rely on E Niang to love you and just keep fooling around. In that case, E Niang will have a headache and be sad. Are you willing to let E Niang be sad?"
The third princess immediately shook her head vigorously.
She rolled her eyes, sat up straight, folded her hands on her thighs obediently, kicked her feet embarrassedly, and suddenly turned to look at Ji Ling, nodded and promised: "Mother, I
I will definitely behave well from now on."
Ji Ling smiled and reached out to touch her head: "Eniang's Xi'er, she is a good girl!"
The third princess also smiled, her eyes curved into two small crescents.
After laughing for a while, she suddenly looked like a little adult and said seriously: "I will also play with my brother in the future."
Ji Ling nodded, hugged her daughter, and made it clear to her seriously: "My brother is not here to compete with you. He is your biological brother from the same father and mother. You two came out of the same belly -
You can’t kiss me anymore.”
She gently touched her daughter's forehead and looked up at the Nuan Pavilion.
A little light casts a shadow like a bean.
There was a sound under the pear tree outside the window. It was the lingering snow in the night that broke the pear branches and fell under the brickwork.
Ji Ling said slowly: "Xi'er, you are still young and don't know that life is full of hardships and dangers - one more relative means one more person to rely on."
The third princess seemed to understand but didn't understand, and quietly stopped talking.
It snowed heavily for five or six days.
In the Forbidden City, when you look up, you will see snow-capped mountains and the earth is completely white and clean.
The red walls and yellow tiles of the East and West Twelve Palaces were faintly showing their color under the cover of white snow. The palace crows had long been frozen and hid, and the entire Forbidden City was silent.
It's snowing here, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs doesn't dare to delay at all - as we enter the twelfth lunar month, the joy of welcoming the New Year becomes even more intense. Even among the people, "Twenty-three means sticky sugar melons; twenty-four means house cleaning day;
Twenty-five, push the millet; twenty-six, remove the meat; twenty-seven, slaughter a chicken; twenty-eight, make the noodles; twenty-nine, steam the steamed buns; stay overnight on the thirtieth night, New Year's Day
"Twist, twist", the rules in the palace are even more stringent.
Finally, three or four days after the weather cleared up, New Year's Eve in the sixth year of Yongzheng's reign arrived as promised.
