When these words were spoken, Xiaoguo was completely confused. It wasn't this and it wasn't that. What was the reason?
Sister Yang looked protective and continued to defend Old Yang, "He came to Widow Liu because he wanted to borrow her family's recipe for preserving pregnancy. Widow Liu studied medicine when her husband was alive, so she has many recipes, both large and small. Look, she brought them to me last night."
Xiaoguo wanted to swear, so why was she crying? ! !
"Don't worry, just listen to me."
Xiaoguo nodded stiffly and said, "Okay, okay, go ahead and tell me what you want to tell me. I don't believe it. Just tell me all the dog food you have."
"Xiao Guo, don't fall asleep. I haven't finished talking yet."
Mrs. Yang reached out to pull Xiaoguo, still mumbling, "I told Old Yang that I was coming here, but he didn't even stop me. He even said I wasn't calm and asked me to calm down first..."
Xiaoguo didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of hurting her stomach, but he really couldn't let her continue to listen to the couple's flirting.
I really didn't expect that pregnant Mrs. Yang would be so hypocritical.
Xiaoguo is like soft meat at this moment, and can't be pulled up. His head seems to be stuck to the pillow. You can't leave me, and I can't leave you.
"Xiao Guo? Xiao Guo?"
Mrs. Yang didn't give up and continued to pat her on the back. When she saw that she couldn't wake up anymore, she gave up unwillingly.
The next morning, just after daybreak, Brother Yang invited Sister-in-law Yang back with many invitations.
Xiao Guo shook her head helplessly, and waited for the two loving figures to go away before she locked the door and went back to the room. She stretched her waist and returned to the embrace of the bed. Sister Yang had been clinging to her for half the night, so she quickly took a nap while it was still early.
-
Capital city.
"Prince, wake up."
Zhixia gently called the small bulge under the quilt.
I saw the little drum twist twice and then returned to calm.
Zhixia chuckled and spoke again, "Prince? Xiaoyi?"
This time it twisted several times before it stopped.
Zhixia saw that there was a chance, so she continued, "Today is your birthday."
This time there was a big movement under the quilt. A small black head slowly emerged, and then there was no movement again.
"How many gifts will our little birthday boy receive today?"
"Um?"
Xiao Yi got up, opened his eyes and looked at her.
Zhixia covered her mouth and giggled, and made way. The palace maid behind her immediately rushed forward, dressed her, tied her hair, washed her face, and soon, a handsome boy who was not yet handsome, but cute enough, appeared in front of them.
He would be much more lovable if he weren't yawning.
Zhixia brought Xiaoyi to Yangxin Palace.
Today is his birthday, and he got up so early because he wanted to pay his respects to Shao Zhan.
Xiao Yi was very cooperative, and he didn't make any noise or trouble along the way. He just did whatever he was told to do.
Zhixia was extremely surprised. It was really a wonder. If he was asked to be so disciplined normally, he would have made a big fuss. How could he cooperate so well?
Xiao Yi's big eyes were always looking at the palace door, and he didn't even have the energy to eat with Shao Zhan.
Shao Zhan snorted coldly several times, but did not attract Xiao Yi's attention.
As soon as he finished his meal, Xiao Yi prepared to leave. He walked out anxiously, thinking that the package might have arrived at his residence by now.
"Hey, stop your legs."
Shao Zhan looked at the little bastard who was about to leave after wiping his mouth after eating, "How disrespectful."
Xiao Yi was in a good mood today, so unlike him, he turned around and bowed to him politely, "I'll take my leave."
After saying this, he walked out step by step steadily. When he was outside, he ran anxiously.
Shao Zhan blinked a few times, then came to his senses and looked at Eunuch Su who was also shocked, "Really?"
This is the first time I see Xiao Yi being so polite.
"Yeah!" Eunuch Su held his hat and nodded vigorously, confirming that it was true.
"Your Majesty, this..."
Eunuch Su suddenly remembered the gift beside him. This was something the emperor had worked very hard to prepare, but it had not yet been given away.
"..." Shao Zhan looked at the box that was moving slightly beside him and thought for a while, "Forget it, I'll give it to you in the evening."
Eunuch Su bent down, picked up the box, and walked out carefully holding it. The things inside were still shaking due to the sudden loss of weight.
Holding the baby carefully in his arms, Eunuch Su couldn't help but sigh at his fate. After serving the Emperor, he still had to serve this little thing. It was really exhausting.
"well."
Eunuch Su stopped and raised his head stiffly. Could it be that the emperor had learned the art of mind reading?
"Remember to give the last one to him."
"yes."
Eunuch Su sighed and then walked out quickly.
Shao Zhan pursed his lips, he forgot who told him that it is meaningful to give the first and the last birthday gifts. If he can't catch up with the first one, then wait for the last one.
He raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, really worried about this little bastard.
Xiao Yi quickly ran back to his residence, and the first thing he did when he entered the door was to ask if there were any of his things.
He was not disappointed. On his way to Yangxin Palace, the eunuch took back the gifts that Xiaoguo and Zhuangzhuang had asked the postman to deliver.
Little Yihun was so happy that he jumped around with the package in his arms, showing it to everyone he met, "Does it look good?"
No matter who you ask, the answer is the same.
"nice!"
Xiao Yi took the package back to his room with satisfaction and went to admire the gift.
The eunuchs and palace maids outside the door wiped the sweat from their foreheads, as if they had just made a major decision concerning life and death.
Just now the prince asked them whether it looked good or not, and they didn't know what to say. After all, it was just an ordinary package, and they didn't even open it to look inside, so how could they tell whether it looked good or not?
Fortunately, they both chose the correct answer, which is that it looks good.
"Okay, let's get to work."
At Zhixia's command, everyone scattered like birds and beasts, returning to their respective posts.
Xiao Yi lay on the bed holding the package and rubbed it with his little face. No matter what he did, he didn't want to break the knot that was tied by Xiao Guo's mother.
In the end, he opened the bundle with great pain. He had no choice. Although he was reluctant to untie the knot on the outside, he could not resist his longing for the gift inside.
What caught my eye were two letters placed on the surface, a pair of half-finished shoes underneath the letters, a strange cloth bag with embroidery patterns, and a book.
When Xiao Yi saw the book, his eyes widened. How could there be a book?!
Curious, Xiao Yi couldn't wait to open the envelopes. In order not to differentiate between them, he opened both envelopes at the same time.
The letter not only congratulated Xiaoyi on his birthday, but also included details of the gift, successfully answering Xiaoyi's confusion.
He also learned that the semi-finished shoes that reveal half of the foot are called slippers, and he was allowed to wear them indoors.
The strange embroidered bag is called a school bag, and it is used for him to go to school.
The book that Zhuangzhuang gave was not an ordinary text book, but a picture book he drew himself. He picked out some of the stories Xiaoguo had told him and wrote and drew on them himself.
For Xiaoyi, all these things are of great significance.
These gifts that Xiao Yi had been looking forward to for a long time were enough to make him happy until the next time he saw them.
My good mood throughout the day reached its peak after receiving Shao Zhan's gift in the evening.
At night, Zhixia led the palace maids out, leaving only a candle in the house. In the dim room, one could vaguely see a little boy sleeping with a small yellow dog on his bulging belly. Next to his pillow was a picture book that had been opened but not closed yet, and under the couch was a pair of slippers of the right size. Turning his eyes, he saw a bulging backpack on the table, waiting for its owner to carry it tomorrow.
