The Little Crying Bag of the Prime Minister’s House

Zhou smiled politely, his eyes tactfully, but there was undisguised unhappiness and indifference in his eyes.

"Even if my family's Nian Nian's reputation is damaged, I wouldn't just find someone to marry me. Ning Que Wulan, Nian Nian's marriage, I have to worry about his father and I, so I won't bother my sister-in-law."

Zhou Xiangtong's mother sighed in a pity, and she was excited about the marriage that she had decided with the Qin family in the next year.

"Don’t blame your sister-in-law for troublesome. We are elders after all, so I am so worried. But don’t worry, after my sister Tong is married, the Qin family’s child is well-connected and popular, and can always do it. I found someone who doesn't dislike Nian Nian."

Someone in the big room sneered while holding his veil.

"How can they dislike it? Nian Nian was in the Imperial College at the beginning, but there must be a group of classmates who are studying together and eating and drinking together. They must have deep feelings. Maybe some of them don't dislike Nian Nian."

"Enough!" The old lady patted the table with a serious face, and looked at the gloating faces of the group below, showing an unhappy face.

"You are a family in the end, don't you feel happy to see that we can't get married? Everyone is cynical and ridiculed in this yin and yang. I'm upset after hearing it. Let's go down. I want to take a nap."

The old lady waved her hand and signaled everyone to step back and stop dangling in front of her.

The disharmony between the big room and the second room is always a problem for the old lady.

Ye Nianning also left the old lady's backyard with Zhou.

He went to the courtyard where the second room was and greeted his grandmother.

Ye Nianning's grandmother was Zhou's mother. While rubbing her eyebrows, she told Zhou about all the unpleasant things that had become more disagreeable between the two rooms in the Changpinghou Mansion in the past two years.

Zhou was also very angry at hearing it, but fortunately she got married early and didn't have to face these bad things every day.

Ye Nianning didn't understand this, so he sat aside and shook his legs and ate snacks, eating really hard.

"The granddaughters of Dafang are all married well, and Sung-il showed up in front of our second bedroom, saying that they are good at teaching their daughters, and all of them are well-knowing and gentle, unlike us... alas..."

At that time, Zhou's uproar had caused Erfang to be unable to hold his head in front of Dafang for a long time.

This time, Ye Nianning happened again, and she became a laughing stock in the eyes of many famous families in Qianjing City.

Zhou clan talked with his mother for a long time, and made an appointment to visit relatives and friends in the first month before leaving Changping Hou Mansion with Ye Nianning.

Ye Nianning followed Zhou's family and said goodbye to her grandmother.

He sighed that the child had suffered a hard life and was cheated by his own father, and he blamed the Zhou family for agreeing to Ye Maoshan.

Back to the small courtyard, Mrs. Cheng had already cleaned up the entire courtyard.

The faint afterglow of the sunset lingers among the bamboo forests outside the courtyard.

Returning to the old place, Ye Nianning was also inevitably happy.

My childhood memories are here.

Ye Nianning couldn't wait to go to East Street to find Shen Qingqing.

By the way, see if she has grown in craftsmanship again in the past two years or not.

But it was stopped by Ye Maoshan.

"No, this time I'm going back to Beijing in secret. I won't go back in the next year."

Although Ye Nianning didn't understand why Dad was like this.

But he would only nod his head and stay in the courtyard honestly.

Fortunately, in my own courtyard, I can lie down under the turquoise rocks, or hear the sound of water from the bamboo wall, which is also very fun.

It didn't take long to return to the capital city in this way.

It's New Year's Eve.

At this time, the land of Dongfu was completely white.

However, the city of Qianjing is full of joy, with bright red Fu characters and big red lanterns everywhere.

At dawn, Ye Maoshan took a bamboo pole covered with copper coins and struck the ash pile vigorously.

Ye Nianning stayed lazy and leaned forward curiously: "Daddy, what are you doing?"

"Your dad is hitting the ashes. I pray that every ill will turn luck in the future, and the death will become auspicious. This is another screaming wish. Nian Nian can make a wish now. It must be realized!" Zhou Shi was aside, Said softly.

"Okay!" Ye Nianning closed his eyes earnestly, folded his hands together, and began to make a wish.

I hope that she will not marry, stay with her parents, and will not be laughed at by outsiders.

You don't have to go out on New Year's Eve.

A few days in advance, Zhou ordered Mrs. Cheng to buy chicken, duck and fish meat, tea wine sauce, roasted seeds and nuts, sugar bait fruits.

He also took Ye Nianning to the clothing store to buy new clothes.

Nowadays, the most popular Firefox collar hibiscus white in the city of Ganjing.

All day, Ye Nianning got together with her parents.

Ye Maoshan put up Spring Festival couplets on a wooden ladder and hung up lanterns.

Zhou is preparing the New Year's Eve dinner in the small kitchen.

The New Year’s Eve dinner is very rich, but every dish also has auspicious meaning.

Fish is surplus every year, lettuce is to make money, yuba is rich and so on.

Needless to say Zhou's cooking skills.

Both Ye Nianning and Ye Maoshan were full of food in their hometowns, and their lips and teeth were fragrant.

A family has to keep the year old after eating New Year's Eve dinner.

Lighting the oil lamp, Ye Nianning sat around the stove with her parents.

Zhou had already prepared some midnight snacks.

Such as Shiguo, Honey Decoction, Chengsha Tuan, Jujube Cake, Stir-fried Hamlet Chestnut, Five-Colored Osmunda and so on.

"The imperial palace is probably very lively now. The family members of the important courtiers of the Central Government have to accompany the Shengshang to stay in the pavilion. Fortunately, I will return to Beijing in secret, otherwise I have to be called. The singing and dancing really make me a headache."

Ye Maoshan was fortunate.

Ye Nianning stretched out his hand to take the jujube cake. It turned out that the reason why Dad didn't want people to know was that he didn't want to stay in the pavilion and stay up to date?

Zhou's mouth pursed with Ye Nianning.

It is estimated that he is not afraid of the singing and dancing, but he is afraid of being dealt with with many important officials.

Madam Cheng’s home is in Qianjing City. She has not returned home for more than two years. Zhou granted her leave. She went back early to reunite with her family for the New Year.

Only Baizhan was lonely and homeless.

Zhou specially asked Bai Zhan to stay with them tonight, and let her sit next to Ye Nianning, just like a sister, without restraint.

Ye Nianning was still in good spirits, eating Xiaoshiguo, and listening to his father telling myths. It was a joy.

But later at night, it became sleepy.

The charcoal in the brazier inside the house burned enough, and the window lattice rustled from the cold wind outside the window.

Ye Nianning rubbed his eyes and fell into Zhou's arms, fighting with eyelids.

Zhou felt distressed and touched her hair bun: "Niannian, if you are sleepy, go to sleep first."

"No..." Ye Nianning yawned, and insisted on saying, "I want to keep the year old with my parents."

"Stupid kid..." Zhou's painfully patted Ye Nianning's back gently.

Ye Maoshan continued to tell the fairy tale, which was simply a lullaby.

Bai Zhan came out of the house lightly.

The silver frost charcoal in the brazier burned for half an hour and it was gone. She had to go to the West House to get some more.

It is the time when thousands of households are keeping the year old.

Out of the house, the sound of firecrackers mixed with laughter can be vaguely seen.

Bai Zhan pursed his lips, put both hands in his sleeves, and walked briskly in the courtyard, covered in the frosty chill of the night.

After walking a few steps, Bai Zhan seemed to hear something at the gate of the courtyard.

Fortunately, red lanterns were lit everywhere in the courtyard, so she boldly walked over.

However, Qin Jixun had just jumped out of the carriage when he saw a Cuiyan oil truck parked at the door.

Wearing a wool cloak with a bamboo leaf pattern and snow-white piping, the hair color is like ink, and the eyes are like running water.

But I haven't seen it for more than two years, the faint youthful aura on his body has completely dissipated, and he has become more and more clear-cut, and his eyebrows are sloppy.

Qin Jixun didn't expect Baizhan to be here either.

He originally attended a palace banquet in the palace to accompany the emperor to watch the year.

But the emperor was really unwell. After sitting for a long time, he dismissed the crowd, and went to sleep in the hall by himself.

Qin Jixun returned from the imperial palace to Qin's mansion, passing by the Imperial College.

He ordered the carriage to go around the Ye Family Courtyard to take a look.

Although things are not human, but he can also see things and affection.

Qin Jixun suppressed his excitement when he saw Bai Zhan.

The original clear and steady voice did not consciously bring a slight tremor.

"Your lady has returned to the capital?"

Qin Jixun turned his head and glanced, and saw the red lanterns hanging everywhere in the courtyard, shaking slightly in the evening breeze, full of New Year's joy.

His heart couldn't help but sway gently with the lantern.

Today is really a good day.

Qin Jixun raised his leg and wanted to step into the hospital.

But Baizhan was blocked in front of him.

"Master Qin, please stay." Bai Zhan raised his hand calmly, smiling on his delicate face.

"Prince Qin, my lady has not returned to Beijing. It is just that the old lady sent me back first and cleaned up the yard. They will not leave until a few years later."

Bai Zhanxing's eyes are full of sincerity, and it doesn't seem to be half-fake.

Qin Jixun paused.

It is indeed rude to rush in for no reason.

He had to step back a few steps and looked at Baizhan a few more times.

"Well, when your lady comes back, send someone to my house to report a message."

"Yes." Bai Zhan nodded slightly.

The evening breeze followed her exposed white and delicate neck all the way in.

Shivered.

Qin Jixun winked back at the hill.

Xiaoshan immediately ran over knowingly, and handed a big red small purse with heavy gold and silver in it, and handed it to Baizhan's hand.

Qin Jixun's clear voice sounded like heaven in Baizhan's ears.

"This is the New Year's Eve for Niannian. When she returns to Beijing, please give it to her for me as soon as possible." Qin Jixun paused, then watched Bai Zhan trembling in the wind, and continued, "God. It's cold, Xiaoshan, give her some scraps of silver and make a thicker stand-up collar."

Bai Zhan looked up at Qin Jixun flatteredly.

Only his upright back figure got into the Cui Yan oil truck.

Xiaoshan stuffed a few pieces of silver into Baizhan's hands: "Girl Baizhan, what are you doing in a daze? Hurry up! My master and I have to go back to the house for a new year!"

"Ah! Alright!" Bai Zhan hurriedly took a few pieces of silver in Xiaoshan's hand, and bowed again and again to thank him.

The carriage that had been watching Qin Jixun disappeared from sight, Bai Zhan turned around and left without forgetting.

The evening breeze is still cold.

Ruthlessly poured into her neck.

But Baizhan didn't feel cold at all.

My heart is warm.

Bai Zhan held the pieces of broken silver tightly in his hand, feeling distressed.

But she couldn't bear to let go at all.

In fact, Zhou did not treat her poorly, did not treat her food or clothes badly, and gave her enough money to buy winter clothes.

It’s just that she spends all the money...

Bai Zhan shook his head.

There is no moon tonight, only the dim lights illuminating her petite figure, walking through the cold wind.

Bai Zhan felt the pain in his hand, and then thought of Qin Jixun's graceful figure.

Bai Zhan secretly made up his mind, his eyes gradually firm.

Young Master Qin is really a godlike character.

She would never... Never let Young Master Qin and Miss Qin go together.

Baizhan properly collected the broken silver, and then went to the West House to pick up some silver frost charcoal and returned to the hall.

As soon as the door opened, Bai Zhan entered the house with a cold breeze.

Ye Nianning, who was sleeping curled up in Zhou's arms, shivered with cold and woke up.

Ye Nianning rubbed her sleepy eyes: "Mother, is it dawning?"

Zhou smiled softly: "How can it be so fast, it's not late at night. But Baizhan has come in. If you are sleepy, go and lie down."

"No." Ye Nianning shook his head like a rattle. "The whole family wants to be reunited and stay together. I will never leave my father and mother behind. I will sleep alone first!"

After speaking, Ye Nianning yawned again, her small face wrinkled.

Zhou grabbed her little face and said, "Nian-nian has grown up and become more sensible! Maybe next year, you will be married, and you can't stay together with your parents!"

Ye Nianning's heart was alarming, and there was one more reason for not wanting to marry in his heart.

Ye Nianning quickly wrapped Zhou's arm, humming and coquettishly.

"I don't want it! I have to keep the years old with my parents every year, and when I am seventy-eighties, I have to keep the years together with my parents!"

Ye Maoshan was amused by her daughter's delicate remarks: "Come on, how can a woman not marry? If you want to marry someone and be together with your parents, then let's hire a parent. "

Ye Nianning's eyes lit up, this is a good idea!

The ash pile is really useful.

I just made my wish in the morning, and I have an idea in this meeting.

Ye Nianning was complacent, and decided to start secretly searching for someone from the beginning of the new year to see if there is a good candidate for the adultery.

"In my opinion, the kid Ye Qingci is good." Ye Maoshan still remembers Ye Qingci, who he values ​​most. "I just came to Beijing for a few days, but I still haven't heard of him, and I don't know where he is going. NS…"

Ye Maoshan's always indifferent expression was still a little nervous and concerned.

Ye Qingci was a junior who really Ye Maoshan regarded as his own son, and he was really worried that he would not be able to give Ye Erniu an explanation in the future.

Zhou said softly and relieved: "Miangong is not anxious, the kid in Qingci is a very clever, and he has always had an idea, and nothing will happen."

Ye Maoshan sighed, "I can only find it slowly like this..."

Ye Nianning patted her chest: "Daddy, don't worry, after the Chinese New Year, I will find His Royal Highness and ask him to help find people! There are so many officers and soldiers in the capital, so many pairs of eyes, it must be easy to find!"

Ye Maoshan gently touched Ye Nianning's head: "Good boy."

After sitting for a long time, the lamp fell, and looked up at Beidou obliquely.

Ye Nianning finally spent the whole night half-dreaming and half-awake. She didn't even have the energy to eat snacks, so she insisted till dawn.

Ye Nianning finally couldn't hold it back when she showed a white belly that day.

Ye Maoshan smiled and shook his head, picked up Ye Nianning, and sent her back to the room.

Bai Zhan kept following behind, took off Ye Nianning's shoes and socks, wiped her face and hands, and finally covered her with a quilt.

After Baizhan finished all this, he stared at Ye Nianning for a while.

Only then took out the small purse filled with gold and silver harems from his arms.

Bai Zhan hesitated for a moment, and finally opened the pear wood box that Ye Nianning usually put in her small vault, and put the small purse into it.

Bai Zhan wouldn't embezzle the money by herself, but she didn't want to tell the lady either.

She had already learned from the master and his wife that Young Master Qin seemed interested in the young lady.

But she waited close to Ye Nianning every day, naturally knowing that Ye Nianning was not at all open.

But she still couldn't tell the young lady that Young Master Qin had come to send the New Year's money.

The young lady was just when the love was first opened.

It would be bad if it happened to be plucked by Qin Gongzi.

Bai Zhan pinched her palm with her nails, and warned herself that she must prevent the occurrence of the happy relationship between Miss Qin and Gongzi Qin.

In the first month.

It's the time to visit relatives and friends.

Ye Maoshan still stayed behind closed doors, and still didn't plan to let the people in the capital know that he had returned to Beijing.

He seems to be planning something secretly, observing something.

The Ye family has no other relatives in Qianjing.

Zhou also took Ye Nianning back to Changping Hou Mansion.

When Zhou returned to Changping Hou Mansion a year ago, he had already passed the anger with the old lady and asked the old lady to tell the people in Changping Hou Mansion. Don't tell people outside the mansion that they had returned to Qianjing City.

The old lady seemed to have guessed what happened.

With a dignified expression, he informed the female relatives in the backyard so that they would not talk about them everywhere.

Only when he was in the Changping Hou Mansion, the Zhou family was naturally inevitably subjected to some runs from the Dafang.

It was mainly for the matter of her marrying Ye Maoshan in the first place, and now that Ye Nianning's reputation is damaging.

Zhou's cleverly and mellowly blocked it.

The old lady is also not happy to see the two rooms pinch each other.

He said a few words, sent Zhou's some gifts in return, gave Ye Nianning a generous amount of New Year's Eve money, and let them all go back.

Back in the courtyard, Ye Nianning couldn't get out again.

Ye Maoshan's business is not over yet.

He must wait until the day he enters the palace to report on his duties before he can let Ye Nianning go out.

It’s the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Ye Nianning couldn't hold it anymore.

Secretly said to Ye Maoshan.

"Daddy, today is the Chinese New Year's Day, and it's bustling outside! I want to go shopping for lanterns~ There are no lanterns like Ganjingcheng in Qingzhou City, just let me go and see!"

"Daddy, the road is dark at night anyway, I'll go to a place with few people! I still wear a veil! Is it okay? I beg you, Daddy~"

Ye Nianning shook Ye Maoshan's arm vigorously.

He hummed and acted like a baby, his voice was sweet and soft.

Ye Maoshan was originally a daughter slave and could not resist her daughter's act of acting like a baby.

I thought that his business was done well, even if he was recognized.

He nodded helplessly: "Go ahead!"

"Daddy is so good!" Ye Nianning was so happy that she circled Ye Maoshan a few times.

Only then did Bai Zhan call for her to tidy up and dress up for her.

Go out happily in the carriage.

Compared with Qingzhou City, the Shangyuan Festival in Qianjing City is simply a world apart.

Ye Nianning wore a newly cut jade-colored embroidered fold-stacked flower skirt, covered with a Firefox-collar hibiscus white cloak, stepped on soft-soled pearl sheepskin boots, and carried a rabbit lantern. He was very happy.

Even the bitter evening breeze brought chills to her face, and she didn't feel cold.

The whole body was excited by the dazzling light of this tree.

There are many shops in the city of Qianjing, and colorful lights are hung everywhere.

There are countless lanterns and fireworks like rain.

Reflected on Ye Nianning's face, it made her even more peachy, and her eyes looked like stars.

There are so many small activities on the Spring Festival.

There were a lot of lantern riddles in front of the larger shops, which were written on small pieces of paper and pasted on the lanterns.

As long as someone guesses right, they can go into the shop and choose something at will, without paying any money.

There are also dragon and lion dance performances on the street.

There are also stilts and Taiping drums.

There was a constant stream of people laughing and laughing everywhere.

The streets and alleys are lit up with lights and festoons.

Ye Nianning was also immersed in such a lively atmosphere, and his mood also jumped unconsciously.

Admiring the lantern, she happened to pass by a Lantern Festival stall.

So he sat down and ordered two bowls of Yuanxiao, one bowl with Baizhan.

The Lantern Festival made by this stall is deep-fried.

Dip a circle of white sugar in a porcelain bowl for the golden small balls, which are crisp and sweet.

Biting out the soft black sesame filling, it smells delicious and thinks very much.

Ye Nianning was still too proud of eating, and wanted to have another bowl.

But Bai Zhan persuaded her to go to other Lantern Festival stalls to try again.

Ye Nianning felt reasonable, so Bai Zhan paid the money, and the two wandered around the lanterns to guess the riddles.

Ye Nianning just left for a while.

Two more distinguished guests were welcomed at the same Lantern Festival stall.

It was the prince and Qin Jixun.

The prince was sad.

"Even though it is the Spring Festival today, I can't be happy... The father's illness has become more serious, and I can't even arrange a palace banquet to celebrate the Spring Festival..." The prince frowned, "It would be fine if Xiao Ye Zi was here. Yes, the previous Shangyuan Festivals she used to be very lively and happy. She was not in these few Shangyuan Festivals, and I was boring every time..."

As he was talking, the prince Yu Guang gave a casual glance.

Then he straightened his back immediately and rubbed his eyes quickly.

Looking at a certain place, without blinking, the whole person almost stood up.

Qin Jixun held him down: "His Royal Highness, what are you going to do? The Lantern Festival we ordered is here."

The boss came with two bowls of Lantern Festival, and his smile also carried the festive joy.

The earthenware bowl contained seven or eight Yuanxiao each, which was golden brown and crispy. The prince looked down, swallowed, and quickly picked up the bamboo chopsticks and tasted it.

Well, I must have read it wrong just now. How could Xiao Ye Zi appear in Qianjing City?

Let's eat Yuanxiao first.

Qin Jixun ate quickly.

After three or five times, the Lantern Festival in his bowl was already empty.

Sitting aside, waiting for His Royal Highness.

His spine was straight, and Qing Feng occasionally swept a strand of hair from his forehead, like a heavenly man.

Sitting there attracted the secret glances of countless girls and women passing by.

Young Master Qin is really good-looking.

It's so good-looking.

I really envy the girl who can marry Young Master Qin in the future.

Qin Jixun put his hands on his thighs, peeking at him without realizing it.

No food and no words.

But Qin Jixun asked one more question today.

"His Royal Highness, what did you just see? Why are you so gaffe?"

"Oh... it's nothing." The prince replied unintentionally, biting a Lantern Festival, revealing the black oily sesame filling, softly flowing out.

"I seemed to see Xiao Yezi just now, but I must have read it wrong... Why did she appear in Qianjingcheng? If she comes back, she will definitely come to us. The three of us went shopping together on Yuan Festival before. How happy! So it must not have been her just now, she will definitely not leave us two, come to play alone, I said Axun..."

The prince raised his head as he spoke.

Where are the Axun people? ? ?

The author has something to say: smoke a red envelope duck!

Can you guess why Bai Zhan wants to prevent them from being together? !
