Chapter 650 Extra - Qinse in the Palace

"I don't think she went to enjoy the peach blossoms, but to have some free time." The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows. "She was worried that Ning girl would not be able to adapt to the capital. She was also worried that we would summon Ning girl to the palace at any time. She was worried that Ning girl would feel constrained and wronged, so she hurried to protect her."

"From what I see, that's what I mean."

"But Jinnian has his reasons for being like this. He has suffered since childhood, and he is afraid that Ning girl will suffer again." The Queen Mother smiled and shook her head, "This boy is lucky not to have his father's temperament and to know how to love his wife."

"Well, since they don't want to be constrained, just let them be. If they don't come on their own initiative in the future, there is no need to deliberately summon them to the palace. If you really want them to be..."

"At worst, we can just go out of the palace and see them."

I'm afraid this trip out of the palace is the main point.

The queen saw through the queen mother's thoughts, but she didn't point it out. She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are right. When the time comes, you must remember to bring me along."

Such a good opportunity, she should also take advantage of it, right? "You..."

The Queen Mother was amused by the Queen and started laughing.

The queen also pursed her lips and smiled.

The maids and maids serving outside looked at each other.

Such a harmonious scene between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had never been seen before, but after Qiao was crowned queen, it was often seen.

It is said that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are born enemies, but this is obviously not the case for these two people.

But then again, the Queen Mother is a generous and broad-minded person, and the Queen is also very smart and virtuous. When these two people get along with each other, they should feel a sense of mutual appreciation.

At this moment, Chu Jinnian was playing in the mountains with Zhuang Qingning and two little kids.

The thatched house built with bamboo looks very simple, but it is clean and tidy.

The most important thing is to be in the mountains and forests, surrounded by blooming flowers and singing birds. It is like a paradise, which makes people feel relaxed and happy and reluctant to leave.

On this day, Zhuang Qingning, Chu Jinnian and their two little ones went to pick some peach petals to make some peach blossom cakes. They also asked someone to send the peach blossom cakes to the palace to present them to the empress dowager and the queen, which was also a way for them to fulfill their filial piety as the younger generation.

A family of four travels like this. Even though they are dressed very simply and plainly, their looks and temperament still make them the focus of everyone's attention in these mountains and forests.

It was just that the flowers in the mountains were in full bloom at that time, and because it was located in the suburbs of Beijing, there were many dignitaries in the capital who came here to enjoy the spring flowers, so people were accustomed to it and did not pay too much attention to it.

Only some people who were not from nearby villages and came to the mountain to try their luck in the spring looked sideways when they saw Zhuang Qingning's family.

In the valley, there is another fairly wide stream. After the ice and snow melted, the fish in the stream became much happier and jumped out of the water from time to time. People living nearby took harpoons or nets to catch fish.

There were two men fishing by the stream at this moment, one tall and one short, who seemed to be brothers. They were talking as they cast the fishing net into the water.

By the time the fishing net was pulled up, a rich harvest had already been found.

But the two men only picked up the big ones and threw them into the bucket nearby. If the small ones were still alive, they were thrown back into the stream.

"Brother-in-law, it's almost done. Fry two and make soup with the remaining ones. It will be best for sister to drink." said the shorter man.

"Yeah, it's almost done." The tall man nodded and put away the fishing net. "Yuanzhong, you carry the small bucket, and I'll carry the big one. When we go down the mountain later, let's see if there are any mushrooms or something. If there are, pick some and take them back. Your sister likes fried mushrooms the most."

"Not only does my sister love it, I also miss the fried mushrooms made by my brother-in-law. They are fried crispy, sprinkled with pepper powder, salt and so on, and they are very fragrant." Zhuang Yuanzhong grinned.

"Then find more mushrooms, fry them and eat them when we get home." The tall man chuckled, packed up his things, and followed Zhuang Yuanzhong to the path next to him.

From a distance, one could see Zhuang Qingning and his family holding baskets and carefully picking peach blossoms on the hillside.

The current Seventh Princess, the current Princess Ninghe, was born in Enji Manor.

Zhuang Yuanzhong had already heard about Zhuang Qingning's extraordinary stories, but he was quite surprised to see her here.

But looking at the happy appearance of Zhuang Qingning's family, Zhuang Yuanzhong recalled what happened in the village many years ago, and his heart was full of guilt. But when he thought about how he and Zhuang Qinghe were now living a peaceful and harmonious life under the guidance of Zhuang Qingning, he could not help but smile knowingly.

Seeing that Zhuang Yuanzhong was still unable to look away, the tall man stretched out his arm and put his arm around his shoulders. "At your age, you should have been married a long time ago, but you are not in a hurry. From the look in your eyes, do you still think that getting married earlier and having a wife and children will make life better?"

"Don't worry about this. I'll help you keep an eye out for some good girls. If you like any of them, your sister and I will go and propose to them."

"Okay." Zhuang Yuanzhong nodded, then laughed, "But we have to make it clear, no matter which family this girl comes from, there is only one thing: she must not have a bad temper like my sister, otherwise I can't stand it."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Don't let your sister hear this, or you won't be able to drink any of the fish soup tonight, and you may even have to clean up the fish bones."

"Of course. No matter what I say, I can't let my sister hear it, right..."

The two men chatted and laughed, carrying fishing nets and buckets, and walked out of the valley.

On the hillside, there is a beautiful scene of falling petals and floating fragrance.

Chu Jinnian held the two little balls in front of the tree branch, and his chubby hands carefully picked off the petals one by one and put them in the small bamboo basket next to him.

When they were tired of lifting the peach blossoms and had almost picked all the peach blossoms, Chu Jinnian and Zhuang Qingning sat on a rock nearby to rest, watching Chu Zimo and Chu Siyu laughing and playing under the peach tree.

It was afternoon, the sun was setting, and the rosy glow in the western sky enveloped the entire valley, adding a touch of hazy beauty to the beautiful scenery in the mountains.

A breeze blows, and the fragrance of peach blossoms is refreshing. Peach blossoms sway on the branches, and the sweet chirping of birds breaks the silence of the valley, making the valley seem even more quiet. When you are in it, you will feel leisurely and contented.

The zither and the harp are in the palace, and everything is peaceful and harmonious.

This is exactly what we are talking about, the comfortable and peaceful life at this moment.

Zhuang Qingning narrowed her eyes, leaned on Chu Jinnian's shoulder, and raised the corners of her lips with a sweet smile.

Chu Jinnian also smiled and held Zhuang Qingning's white hand on his knee.
