Qi Rui Extra Episode (3)
In the evening, the setting sun falls on the lake, like golden needles and silver threads rippling with the water waves.
Gao Haiqiong didn't care to appreciate the beautiful scenery, and said with a bitter face: "A Rui, I haven't gone out for a month." She had to shut herself up and contemplate for three months, and now it's only been one month, and there are still two months left!
Going out to socialize on weekdays is annoying, and I feel that three months have passed quickly. Only now do I know how hard it is to be locked up in the mansion every day. If you want to buy something, you can't do it.
Qihao didn't comfort Gao Haiqiong, but instead said: "Mother told you to shut yourself up and think about it for three months, you can't do what you want."
Gao Haiqiong murmured: "That's all I'm going to say." This punishment is already very light, wouldn't she be slapping Yuxi in the face if she wanted to be submissive again. No matter how difficult it is, I have to go out.
"I just miss Fuyunlou's braised lion's head, sweet and sour meatballs, and sauced elbow." Fuyunlou in Beijing is the main store, and he also opened a branch. Basically every provincial capital has its branches.
Qi Rui smiled and said, "Then set a table and come back to eat."
"Forget it, it won't taste so good after you send it home to eat." It tastes fresh and delicious when served on the table. Delivered from the restaurant to the home, the food tasted much worse when it was cold.
Nothing happened the next day, Qi Rui went home early. Thinking that Gao Haiqiong wanted to eat the sauced elbow from Fuyun Restaurant, she rode to Fuyun Restaurant to buy a sauced elbow to go back.
Unfortunately, there is only one sauced elbow left in Fuyun Building. And this one has already been booked by customers.
Qi Rui also wanted to buy a soy sauce elbow to make Gao Haiqiong happy, but was very disappointed to hear that it didn't.
At this time, there was a voice like a silver bell: "I don't know who this general is buying the sauced elbow for?"
Qi Rui turned his head and saw that it was a girl who spoke.
The girl looked elegant and refined in a plain white dress. Rumo's long hair was gently pulled up with a lotus-colored ribbon, and a rose hairpin was inserted obliquely on her head. Curved willow-leaf eyebrows, bright star eyes, a pair of beautiful red phoenix eyes, skin that can be broken by blowing bombs. People couldn't take their eyes away after seeing her. At this moment, all the guests in the hall were staring at her intently. However, these people did not include Qi Rui.
As a prince, he has never seen such a beauty. No matter how beautiful a woman is, she won't make him stir up trouble.
Seeing this, Xiao Er hurriedly explained to Qi Rui: "My lord, the last soy elbow was ordered by this girl."
The girl's name is Mu Yingying,
She is the eldest daughter of Mu Changqiu, the prefect of Shengjing. When she heard the word wangye, she was very surprised and said: "So it's wangye, the servant girl was rude just now."
Since she is called a courtier's daughter, she must be a girl from an official family. However, Qihao was not interested in asking about her identity, but instead asked: "Would you like to cede this sour elbow?"
The girl smiled and said, "I'm going to buy it for my younger brother. Since the prince wants it, I'll buy it tomorrow."
A soy elbow, not a big deal. Qi Hao didn't refuse, and said with a smile: "Then thank you, Miss."
Looking at Qi Rui's back, the girl smiled. It's just that smile, but it doesn't reach the eyes.
Since she was young, Mu Yingying has been loved by her grandparents and people around her because of her outstanding appearance, and she has been sought after by young teenagers since she grew up. It was the first time that someone ignored her like this.
Mu Yingying smiled and said, "Let's go!" That smile was indescribably gentle and moving.
The master and servant got into the carriage, and Ji Lan, her personal maid, said: "Girl, it is said that the prince only sees the concubine, but now it seems that the rumors are true." There was no praise in the words, only full of worry.
Mu Yingying said with a smile: "Isn't it great that the prince is deeply affectionate?"
Ji Lan was very worried, just looking at Mu Yingying's indifferent expression, she swallowed all the words that came to her lips.
Qi Rui is not a romantic person, and he hasn't offered any gifts since they got married. It's just yesterday that I casually said that I wanted to eat sauced elbow, and I bought it back. Gao Haiqiong saw it, and was naturally overjoyed.
Gao Haiqiong ate the sauced elbow, and then couldn't eat at night.
Yun Xian yelled after knowing this: "Mother, Dad bought the soy pork knuckles and didn't share them with us, he ate them all by himself."
The dinner ended in another fight. By the time the three bastards were coaxed to sleep, it was already late.
As soon as he was lying on the bed, Qi Rui became restless and touched her with both hands.
Gao Haiqiong was a little tired at first and didn't want to. But thinking about Qi Rui's performance today, he was not willing to refuse.
After some cloud and rain, Qi Rui touched Gao Haiqiong's belly and said, "Let's have a daughter!" The son is too rough, but the daughter is quiet and lovable.
Gao Haiqiong said with a smile: "I also want to have a daughter, but I'm afraid I won't be able to conceive it." It has been four years since the youngest son Yun Xing was weaned, and his stomach still hasn't moved. Without contraception, I couldn't get pregnant. But I have three sons, so I don't worry if I can't get pregnant. It's a pity that I don't have a girl.
Hearing this, Qi Rui said: "You don't have to know what's going on, except for the elder brother, A Xuan and I don't have any daughters until now."
Gao Haiqiong gave Qi Rui a white look: "Prince Xuan already has three daughters, no daughter yet?"
Qi Rui corrected, "I'm talking about concubine daughters." As for concubine daughters, it's not that they don't count, or they don't take them seriously. In the Ming Dynasty, according to the law, the concubines of the princes did not have titles. And the eldest daughter, after reaching the age of ten, can be canonized as the princess. The title of the second daughter should be the second.
Gao Haiqiong said: "It shouldn't be that time yet!" Except for the queen who gave birth to a daughter in her second child, all three of their sisters-in-law gave birth to sons.
Qi Rui laughed and said, "There are three Yunxians under our knees, Ayou is only brother Xu, and he talks about it every day and wants to have another child." Among the four brothers, only Qiyou likes children the most, but he has no choice but to have children. Brother Xu alone, I don't know if God just likes to tease people.
Speaking of this, Gao Haiqiong sighed a little: "It's also fortunate that the father and the queen mother are reasonable, otherwise..." Si Ling has not been happy for three years after entering the house, and any other mother-in-law would have let her son take a concubine long ago, but the queen mother never brought up this topic . Needless to say, this moved her a lot.
Qi Rui smiled and said: "I have said long ago that a mother treats you daughters-in-law better than her son." Mothers always protect their sons, but his mother is good enough to protect her daughter-in-law.
Gao Haiqiong smiled and said: "That's why my mother always said that I was lucky to meet such a good mother-in-law as my queen mother."
After finishing speaking, Gao Haiqiong blamed herself a little: "It's a pity that we are in Shengjing, so we can't stay by our side to fulfill our filial piety."
Hearing this, Qi Rui laughed: "Forget it! Even if you are in the capital, mother doesn't need you to be filial in front of you." Just because they thought it was noisy, they were kicked out of the palace as soon as they got married. Therefore, Qi Rui is not surprised that Yuxi and Yunqing live in Baihuayuan without their children to serve them.
After a pause, Qi Rui said: "But I think it's good for parents to do this. You can be quiet in Baihuayuan without being disturbed, and then you can do what you like."
"Even if they live in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, no one dares to disturb the queen mother!" Whoever dares to provoke the queen mother is not asking for it by himself!
Qi Rui said with a smile: "It's not comfortable living in Baihuayuan after all. Tell me, how about moving out when we get old?"
"Father, queen and queen can live in the picturesque Baihua Garden, but we don't live in such a beautiful other courtyard." In fact, Gao Haiqiong was reluctant to leave his children. Not to mention being old, she couldn't stand being separated from her three sons for a few days now.
Qi Rui also talked about how he would really move out of the palace. Furthermore, even if you want to move, you have to move out with your son, how can you help out like a father. His eldest brother is the emperor and must live in the palace, which is a special case.
Gao Haiqiong suddenly thought of something: "By the way, I will go to the sales home to visit the children the day after tomorrow. I can't go out tomorrow, so you can visit them for me!"
She had been thinking about her past behind closed doors for a month. The lady in charge of the sales home came to tell Gao Haiqiong today that the children missed her very much.
In fact, not only Gao Haiqiong, but also Tan Aoshuang, Dai Yanxin and Huang Siling have been doing charity. At first it was for Yuxi to see, but after I went there, I really felt sorry for those children. Gao Haiqiong now goes to the sales home whenever she has time. Every time she goes, she never goes empty-handed, she brings pastries and toys with her. Then tell stories to these children, and every time I go there, I will not come back until very late.
Qi Rui nodded and said, "Okay." He was also responsible for delivering the things there, so he didn't have the patience to talk to the children and tell them stories. Even the three Yun Xian brothers, he also taught Yun Xian martial arts, and didn't care about anything else.
Thinking of those well-behaved and lovely children in the sales school, Gao Haiqiong couldn't help but said: "A Rui, you said it would be great if Xian'er was as obedient as the children in the sales school!" So people are more angry than people, You have to throw away the goods. Compared with those children in the sales school, the few brats in my family really want to throw them away.
Qi Rui said: "Don't let Xian'er hear this, or the child will be unhappy."
"That's what I said."
Qi Rui said: "You can't talk about it. Big brother learned things as soon as he was young, and he never let his parents worry about it. But mother never compares us three brothers with big brother. Do you know why?"
Gao Haiqiong said: "Because the elder brother is the prince?"
Qi Rui shook his head and said: "No. Mother said that there is a ruler and an inch, so there is no need to compare with elder brother. Mother told us that as long as we study hard, we will be successful in the future." Not affected, let alone low self-esteem.
After finishing speaking, Qi Rui said: "Furthermore, my eldest brother was sensible and caring when he was young, because he was born precocious than his peers. But my mother was not only unhappy but also very worried, and often asked my father to take him outside to play. Well-behaved and obedient, that's because they have no father or mother. There are a few boys who have fathers and mothers who love them, and there are a few skinless ones."
Gao Haiqiong said: "That's all I said." No matter how sensible and caring the children in the sales home are, what she loves the most is the children born by themselves.
"Just tell me, don't tell the children." Although the three brats are big-hearted masters, they may not take it to heart after hearing this. However, as a parent, it is better to say less.
Gao Haiqiong hummed and said: "Don't worry, I won't mention it to the children in the future." It seems that it is necessary to ask the queen mother about her experience in raising children.
Qi Rui was very tired, so he said hello: "Go to sleep! You have to get up early to practice exercises tomorrow!"
