The Concubine in the Palace_The Feast of Masks【Complete】(210)
When the King of Jin got on the couch again, she quietly came up to him.
The King of Jin snorted and held her closer to his arms.
"Your Highness." Yao Niang whispered in silence.
The King of Jin hummed.
"You will definitely not look for someone else, right?"
The King of Jin hummed again.
"So is it or not?" Yao Niang couldn't pretend anymore and her voice got louder.
Now it was the King of Jin's turn to ignore her and pretend to sleep with his eyes closed.
"Tell me about it."
The King of Jin still ignored her.
Yao Niang was angry, angry out of shame, and didn't care that she was naked now. She lifted the quilt and wanted to leave: "I'm going to sleep with Xiaobao."
She turned over from the King of Jin, and he clamped her waist and pressed her under him.
"If you still have energy, let's not sleep tonight."
After that, the two of them really didn't sleep all night.
Because the King of Jin didn't have to be on duty today, nor did he have to go to other mansions for banquets, so he got up late.
After Yao Niang got up, she didn't see Xiaobao and Yueyue, so she went to the east wing. Before she entered the door, she heard the laughter of the baby. When she walked in, she saw that Erbao had woken up a long time ago and was sitting on the bed playing with Xiaobao Yueyue.
Seriously speaking, it was not that Erbao was playing with his brother and sister, but that he was too naughty and was provoking Xiaobao and Yueyue.
He didn't do anything else, just sat there and touched Xiaobao's little bald head from time to time, and pulled Yueyue's little hair. The little fat face was very close, full of curiosity, as if studying why the two people's heads were different.
Xiaobao and Yueyue probably slept late last night and didn't want to get up yet. Erbao pulled them, and they moved. The nanny next to him couldn't stop him. If he didn't let Erbao do it, he would make angry noises.
Finally, Yueyue couldn't help herself and sat up first, holding her little girl and looking like she was about to cry, "Brother Xiaobao!"
Xiaobao sat up immediately and yelled at Erbao: "Xiaochouchou, what are you doing pulling your sister Yueyue!"
Erbao didn't understand what his brother was saying, and thought his brother was playing with him. He smiled and showed two small rice teeth, and screamed excitedly.
"I'll beat you."
Yueyue hurriedly blocked the way and protected Erbao in her arms: "Erbao is still young, don't beat him."
Erbao had no idea what his brother and sister were doing, and thought they were playing crazy with him. He hid in Yueyue's arms and laughed excitedly, looking at Xiaobao while laughing, which made Xiaobao angry.
Yao Niang was amused by this scene, so she leaned against the door and looked at the three little ones. It was Yueyue who saw Yao Niang with sharp eyes and called her aunt.
Erbao was young, but he knew that aunt was his mother, so he looked over. As soon as he saw Yao Niang, his eyes lit up and he waved at her, making Yao Niang feel that she had spent too little time with her second son.
Unlike Xiao Bao, Er Bao was taken care of by the wet nurse most of the time, and was only brought over to be fed a few times during the day. Now Er Bao also drank less milk from Yao Niang. First, Yao Niang had a lot of things to do during the day and forgot about it when she was busy, and second, King Jin didn't want her to feed him.
Yao Niang came over and picked up Er Bao. Er Bao was very happy, and he was talking in his mouth, as if he was telling his mother what he had just done.
"Little naughty boy, you come to make trouble for your brother and sister early in the morning." Yao Niang tapped his nose.
The wet nurse said beside him: "The second young master woke up in the morning, and when he saw that the eldest young master and Miss Yueyue didn't go to see him, he made a fuss to come."
"Has he eaten in the morning?"
"He has eaten milk and a bowl of rice porridge. The second young master has a good appetite and finished a large bowl of rice porridge."
"He follows his brother!" Yao Niang concluded.
Xiaobao said unwillingly, "I didn't follow me." Yaoniang smiled and said, "Get up quickly. When your father comes back, we will have breakfast." If you say that you will not let King Jin fall behind, you should practice in the hottest days of summer and the coldest days of winter, which is the morning exercise for half an hour every morning.
The maids here have come up and helped Xiaobao and Yueyue dress and wash them. After cleaning up, Yaoniang took the three children to the main room.
During breakfast, Xiaobao mentioned Zhuzhu: "I wonder if Sister Zhuzhu is feeling better. Does she have a fever?"
Yaoniang didn't know what the situation was at Princess Qing's family, so she looked at King Jin. She was actually more worried. After all, it was only Princess Qing's words that she wanted to divorce. She was a weak woman. If her family didn't support her, or if her family tried to persuade her to reconcile rather than to separate, and used some strong means to force Princess Qing, it would be bad at that time.
How could the King of Jin not know what Yao Niang was thinking? He said, "The Xiao family has a good family tradition, and Lord Xiao is not a pedantic and rigid person. There should be no problem for the seventh brother's wife to live in her mother's house. However, if you are worried, you can ask someone to check it out."
Yao Niang was indeed a little worried, so she asked the servants to prepare gifts and sent someone to the Xiao family under the guise of sending gifts and greetings.
At this time, in the Xiao Mansion, Zhuzhu didn't show anything during the day, but she was a little clingy to her mother because of the shock, but she got a fever at night.
Princess Qing ignored the servants' dissuasion and stayed with Zhuzhu in bed all night. Zhuzhu's fever finally subsided, and she went back to the room to rest.
She slept in a daze, but the sleep was not comfortable. Her dream was full of things she and him had done in the past. When she woke up, her pillowcase was wet, but her heart was much smoother.
After Princess Qing finished washing and just sat down to eat, Lord Xiao brought Mrs. Xiao, as well as Princess Qing's brother and sister-in-law.
In fact, when Princess Qing came back with the two children yesterday, the Xiao family saw that something might have happened, but Princess Qing was in a bad mood at the time, and the two children were not in good condition, so they could only put it aside for the time being. Princess Qing's mother, Madam Xiao, was worried all night last night, and she cried when she thought of something bad. Lord Xiao couldn't stand his wife like this, so he came early in the morning.
"Okay, tell me what happened?" Lord Xiao looked like he was in his fifties, with a thin body and elegant temperament. It can be seen that he was also a handsome man with elegant manners when he was young.
In fact, the children of the Xiao family are all good-looking, with the looks of their parents, handsome boys and pretty girls.
Princess Qing did not hide anything and told the story roughly. Princess Qing had never mentioned these things to her family before, and there was no chance. The couple of Prince Qing had been in the vassal state outside, and this time they finally returned to Beijing. Princess Qing has always been a strong-willed person, so how could she tell her troubles to make her parents worry.
After hearing this, the first person to get angry was not Lord Xiao, but Madam Xiao. She was also in her fifties, but she looked very young, and she looked to be in her early thirties. She was born petite and sweet-looking, and this kind of appearance was the best way to hide age. If Madam Xiao's age was not told, I'm afraid no one would guess it.
"Don't be angry, my dear daughter, I'll help you deal with him. Tiedan, bring your mother's Piercing Cloud Spear, and I'll go to the Qing Palace to kill that boy." Although Madam Xiao married a civil official, she was born in a family of military generals. She had a bad temper when she was young, and she didn't change it when she got older.
The old man of the Xiao family, whose real name is Tiedan, is now in his thirties and has become a father. The old man of the Xiao family, whose real name is Xiao Qian, was born with a graceful and gentle appearance. At first glance, he inherited the appearance and temperament of Lord Xiao. He looked at Madam Xiao with an embarrassed look and said, "Mother, how many times have I told you not to call me Tiedan?"
"What's wrong with Tiedan? This name was given by your grandfather. It's a proper name. Otherwise, do you think you can grow up without any illness or disaster, and even get the top score in the imperial examination? It's all because of this name. Mother won't argue with you about this. Tieniu, go get my Piercing Cloud Spear."
Unlike the eldest master of the Xiao family, the second master Xiao Kun is the most enthusiastic about this kind of thing. He ran out in a hurry, and the second grandmother Sun couldn't pull him out.
"Why don't you come back to me! Your mother asked you to go, and you went. You are so old, but you still don't know what to do all day long!" Master Xiao was angry, and Xiao Kun came back in disgrace.
Mrs. Xiao immediately lost her momentum and looked around. "You can't go either. Your father is the most opinionated. It's right to listen to him." She explained to her sons and daughters-in-law.
Mr. Xiao and Grandmother Xiao, as well as the second master and the second grandmother, all nodded like pounding garlic. Generally speaking, the Xiao family is like this: when Lord Xiao doesn't get angry, the whole family listens to Madam Xiao. When Lord Xiao gets angry, naturally Lord Xiao is the boss.
However, generally speaking, Lord Xiao doesn't get angry, so most people still listen to Madam Xiao.
The Xiao family is simple in population. Lord Xiao has only Madam Xiao in his life, and Madam Xiao gave birth to three children, namely Xiao Qian, Xiao Kun and Princess Qing. Princess Qing is the youngest in the family and the only daughter. She has been loved by her family since she was a child. "What are you going to do about this?" So, Lord Xiao understands his daughter and understands that it is not time to act on impulse, but to use your brain to solve the problem.
However, there are generally only two people in the Xiao family who use their brains, not to mention the two daughters-in-law. The brain-thinking faction is Lord Xiao and Master Xiao, and the action faction is headed by Madam Xiao, and the second master Xiao is the assistant. As for Princess Qing, she is a compromise faction.
"My daughter wants to divorce." When this was said, everyone in the Xiao family was shocked.
The two sisters-in-law of Princess Qing wanted to say something, but before they could open their mouths, the rest of the Xiao family expressed their opinions.
"Divorce him!" This is Madam Xiao.
"Divorce, and I'll find you another one!" This is Second Master Xiao.
"Not impossible." This is Master Xiao.
"It depends on how you act." This is Master Xiao.
The two sisters-in-law stopped talking immediately.
Princess Qing smiled with tears in her eyes, lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "Thank you, Dad and Mom, Big Brother and Second Brother."
"If you really divorce, what will happen to Zhuzhu and Yan'er?" As soon as Master Xiao said this, the atmosphere suddenly became cold.
Seeing his daughter's complicated expression, Master Xiao sighed, "Well, you stay at home. The New Year is not over yet, and we can discuss this matter later."
