Chapter 535 Birthday Ceremony
Yueliang sobbed and started crying on Su Ying's shoulder.
"Sister, I do. I want to see the light again."
"good."
Su Ying had made plans beforehand to send those injured women away.
Sending them to a place where no one knows them and letting them start over may be the best arrangement for them.
After confirming Yueyue's idea, Su Ying came out of the house and told Uncle Zhao and the others several places to choose from. No matter where they went, she could help them settle down there.
"After you go there, I will have someone prepare a house for you. It's not big, but it will be enough for your family to live in. Dingji will also prepare everything for you. Wherever you go, if you are willing, you can continue your previous livelihood. If you are not willing, I will arrange things for you to do. It depends on your choice."
They had never dared to imagine such living conditions before.
Taking Yue's situation into consideration, the family discussed and decided to find a place to settle down that was far away from the capital but close to their hometown.
After confirming it, Su Ying asked someone to make the arrangements.
"Once the situation with the moon stabilizes, you can tell the housekeeper in the yard, and he will arrange everything for you."
The Zhao family was naturally grateful.
After this matter was settled, the stone that had been weighing on Su Ying's heart finally fell.
After returning to the palace, Su Ying slumped in the chaise longue and closed her eyes to rest.
Seeing this, Bai Shuang stepped forward and gave Su Ying a massage to relieve her fatigue.
"Your Majesty, take a rest if you are tired. It is not too late now. After you have a good sleep, the eldest prince and his men will be back soon."
Su Ying nodded, relaxed, and fell asleep in a daze.
When Su Ying was sleeping soundly, she felt an itch on her face. She reached out and slapped the thing away, but it came back soon. She opened her eyes in annoyance and saw Erbao holding a feather in his hand and looking at her with a smile.
Su Ying's anger disappeared in an instant, "You little rascal." She grabbed Erbao's little hand, squeezed it, and sat up from the couch.
"Brother, Mom is awake." Erbao turned around and shouted to the outside of the door.
Not long after, Dabao poked his little head in from the door and called softly, "Mother."
Su Ying had been out of the palace these days and hadn't been able to talk to them properly during the day. "What's wrong, Ji'er?"
Dabao pursed his lips and waved at Su Ying. Su Ying became even more confused, not knowing what these two little guys were up to.
Erbao took Su Ying's hand and stood up and walked out of the inner hall.
Dabao walked into the side hall before them.
As soon as Su Ying walked in, she saw a big birthday peach on the table, which surprised her.
"Dinner will be served soon. Are you sure you can still eat after this?"
The two little guys smiled and said, "Mom, this is for Dad."
Su Ying raised her eyebrows. Xiao Jin wants to eat buns tonight?
"Ling'er, I said that my mother must have forgotten."
Erbao pouted with disappointment and said, "Mother, today is Daddy's birthday, did you really forget?"
Su Ying blinked. She really didn’t remember that…
"How could it be possible? How could mother not know your father's birthday?"
"So what gift did mother prepare for father?"
No!
Su Ying licked it and tried hard to think of how to make amends. Both children had prepared big buns for them, it would be unreasonable if she had nothing.
"Well, of course it's something good. Don't let your father know about it for now. I'll go get the gifts I prepared."
After Su Ying finished speaking, she ran out. Last time, she cleverly used the life bracelet to pass the test. If she didn't show some sincerity today, Xiao Jin would not let it go so easily.
But it was too late to prepare anything else now. Su Ying thought about it and went to the imperial kitchen.
Today is Xiao Jin's birthday, but Xiao Jin had already ordered not to celebrate it. Just treat it as usual and no special preparations are needed.
But Uncle He still wanted to prepare something special for the emperor.
When Su Ying arrived at the imperial kitchen, Uncle He was preparing tonight's dinner, and the other helpers were too busy to stop.
"Uncle He, what are you doing?"
When He Shouyi heard Su Ying's voice, he raised his head in a hurry. He saw Su Ying standing at the window and looking into the house. He quickly handed the spoon in his hand to the kitchen helper and walked out of the kitchen.
"Why is the queen here? There is a lot of smoke and fire here, don't let the queen get sick from the smoke."
"Nothing, I just came here to make a bowl of longevity noodles for the emperor myself."
"Leave this to me, my lady."
Su Ying shook her head insistently.
He Shouyi looked at Su Ying strangely. Su Ying was definitely not someone who was keen on cooking. Why did she insist on making a bowl of noodles herself...
"Is this the birthday gift that the Queen wants to give to the Emperor?"
Su Ying raised her eyebrows but did not deny it.
He Shouyi's brows twitched. Was this gift a bit perfunctory?
But since Su Ying wanted to express her feelings, He Shouyi asked the kitchen helper to clean out a pot.
"What kind of longevity noodles would you like to make, Madam?"
Su Ying didn't know, is there any other way to cook this longevity noodle?
He Shouyi saw Su Ying's confusion and explained, "Mother, normally there isn't much to this noodle, but since you're making it for the emperor... can you make it a little more fancy so that the emperor can know your feelings?"
Su Ying felt that a bowl of noodles, even if it was made into flowers, it was still just a bowl of noodles...
"Then tell me, what tricks did I use?"
Xiao Jin returned to Fengluan Palace after dark. When he walked into the inner hall, the two little guys came out after hearing the noise.
"Daddy is back."
Xiao Jin nodded slightly and held their hands. "What were you doing just now? Where is your mother?"
Erbao was about to open his mouth when Dabao covered his mouth and said, "Mother said she had something important to do and would be back soon."
Xiao Jin looked at the two cunning looks on their faces and raised his eyebrows.
The two darlings followed him into the house obediently and sat on the chairs quietly. Their two pairs of big eyes looked out the door from time to time. Their eager looks made it difficult for Xiao Jin to pretend not to know.
Xiao Jin stood up, and the two Baos quickly stood up as well when they saw him.
"Daddy, where are you going?" Erbao asked, holding Xiao Jin's hand.
Xiao Jin remained calm and said, "Go see what your mother is doing."
Dabao winked at Erbao and said, "My mother went to prepare a surprise for Daddy. If Daddy found out in advance, it wouldn't be a surprise."
"Daddy, Mom said she will be back soon, Daddy please wait!" Dabao also held Xiao Jin back and wouldn't let him go out.
Even if Xiao Jin was a fool, he would know what these two little guys and their mother were planning.
