Of course, Yinreng didn't send everything; he only sent one of the things he thought Mingxiu would like or that she had mentioned before.
Mingxiu was already very happy. As for what else, let them figure it out themselves. As long as they definitely wouldn't lose money, that was fine.
After everything was put away, Mingxiu came in with her people. She knew she couldn't use all of these things herself, so she could give some to each of her best friends.
Mingxiu carefully selected four portions from them, all of which were rare jewelry and novel toys. Then, Mingxiu also took four portions and distributed them.
One portion for Consort Hui, one portion for Consort Rong, one portion for Lady Xiao Hesheli, and one portion for Imperial Noble Consort. Although the two are not very close, she is, after all, the one with the highest rank in the harem, and Mingxiu actually has a good feeling about her, so she can't be put in a difficult position.
After happily distributing the food, Mingxiu looked at the remaining portions and distributed the larger ones, leaving the smaller ones undistributed.
For example, the dresses we just saw, there were only a few of them to begin with, and Mingxiu liked them all, so we didn't give them away. These clothes were still too daring for them, and even if we gave them away, probably no one would wear them.
It's better not to separate them than to leave them to collect dust.
She locked the rest in the storeroom so she could try them out when she had time. Right now, she wanted to play with Chenghuan's toys.
Not free for the moment, Mingxiu walked happily to the toy room.
As soon as she walked over, she heard the music box still playing. Mingxiu listened for a moment and realized that it was just the same few songs over and over again, but Chenghuan seemed to enjoy it.
Mingxiu curled the corners of her lips, heard the giggling laughter coming from inside the house, and strode in.
The palace was relatively quiet for a few days because Emperor Kangxi was not in the palace. Mingxiu spent her days playing with the children in the palace, and Yinreng would come over for a meal from time to time. It seemed that she was not as busy as before.
Mingxiu could tell from the bowl in her hand and Yinreng's radiant face that he had been doing quite well these past two days.
Yinreng has indeed been doing quite well these past two days, burying his head in his bowl and diligently eating.
Ever since those old ministers started sending all sorts of memorials to him, they were tricked by Yinreng, who made them work overtime for several nights without sleep, and immediately there weren't so many memorials being submitted.
With his older brother's help, things were quite easy. However, he was a little busier these past two days because the fleet's supplies were being delivered, but it was still manageable.
At least he felt he had plenty of rest time, and could even find time each day to watch cartoons.
After being away for almost half a month, Emperor Kangxi finally returned, looking travel-worn. When he returned, Mingxiu was tending to the flowers and plants in Yonghe Palace.
Life is about taking risks. The flowers and plants in the palace have been growing for a while, so Mingxiu plans to change what she plants and adjust the scenery.
After all, even the most beautiful scenery can become tiresome after a while.
At that time, Mingxiu and Chenghuan were squatting at the entrance of Yonghe Palace, each holding a small hoe and diligently weeding.
Mingxiu was working diligently when she saw Chenghuan next to her throw down her small hoe, excitedly shout "Father Emperor!" and run off towards Kangxi's direction.
Mingxiu looked up and saw that Kangxi was already standing at the door, smiling at them.
Chenghuan had already run over, and Kangxi simply bent down and picked her up. Sunlight shone on the faces of the father and daughter, their similar faces bearing the same smile.
It's just that Cheng Huan's expression is bigger, while Kangxi's is smaller, which makes people feel happy just looking at them.
Mingxiu looked at Kangxi with surprise and delight, then threw her small hoe aside and hurried to Kangxi's side.
Mingxiu ran over and, ignoring the child still in Kangxi's arms talking happily, directly took Chenghuan out of Kangxi's arms and put her on the ground amidst the father and daughter's bewildered gazes.
Then she excitedly threw herself into Kangxi's arms and said happily, "Your Majesty, I missed you so much! How could you hug Chenghuan first and not me?" Mingxiu said, rubbing her head against Kangxi's chest.
Kangxi Xing was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and heard Mingxiu saying what he was saying while hugging him. He felt a little helpless for a moment. Although he was a little embarrassed, he still hugged Mingxiu tightly.
He missed her a lot during this time.
Cheng Huan was suddenly put to the ground, and then she saw her mother rush into her father’s arms, saying words of longing.
Chenghuan was a little anxious and her speech was not very fluent. She pointed at Mingxiu and said intermittently, "Ah, Mother, it's baby. Baby went to Father Emperor's arms first. Mother is naughty. Baby wants Father Emperor to hold her." Chenghuan tugged at the hem of Kangxi's clothes, wanting Kangxi to pick her up again.
She was going to compete with her mother for the emperor's favor.
Mingxiu ignored her. This child had been bothering her a lot lately. Mingxiu poked her head out from Kangxi's arms, looked down at Chenghuan and said, "No way, no way, nyah nyah nyah, if you're so capable, pull me away."
Mingxiu looked down at the sulking child and spoke, successfully turning the originally angry child into a little pufferfish.
Kangxi looked at the mother and daughter in front of him, who were vying for his hug, and his lips twitched. Hugging and cuddling in public was really inappropriate, especially with Zhengmei Mingxiu, who was bullying his child, present.
He pulled Mingxiu's hand off his waist, and under Mingxiu's shocked gaze, bent down to pick up Chenghuan from the ground, frowning as he said, "Alright, what kind of talk is this, showing affection in public? Let's go inside and talk about it."
After saying that, he picked up Chenghuan and walked inside, leaving Mingxiu staring at the backs of the father and daughter with disbelief.
Seeing Chenghuan lying next to Kangxi's neck, making faces at Mingxiu and laughing happily, Mingxiu was furious and pointed at the person in front of her, speechless.
Green Bamboo watched from the side, her stomach aching from trying so hard to suppress her laughter, but she still dared not laugh out loud: "Your Majesty, you should go in quickly too. It doesn't look right with so many people watching at the door."
Upon hearing Green Bamboo's words, Mingxiu glanced around and saw Liang Jiugong awkwardly lowering his head beside him, along with many others behind him who were also trying to suppress their laughter.
Feeling a little embarrassed, Mingxiu's lips twitched, and she followed the father and daughter inside.
Her face flushed slightly with embarrassment. She had only meant to tease Cheng Huan, but she hadn't expected to get carried away and end up like this.
Mingxiu quickly followed him into the house, and then something warm hugged her leg. When Mingxiu looked down, she saw Chenghuan smiling obsequiously at her.
Mingxiu's eyes twitched; she didn't know how she could see the flattery in such a young child.
