It started to rain.
It's rather sinister.
Huan Yue, dressed in thick clothes, sat in the Jixian Pavilion.
Anyway, everything is damp during the rainy season, so her conditions are quite good.
This is truly a blessing earned through eight lifetimes of good deeds. Even winning a single game in a book is a blessing in itself.
Xie Zhou came to see his wife.
He couldn't have the same treatment as his wife, so it was the eunuchs behind him who carried two basins of pomegranates.
Huan Yue looked at them and saw that they were all old plants.
The big one is a huge tree stump in a large basin, about half a person tall, with lush branches and leaves and many flowers.
This small bonsai is rather misshapen, and it's situated by the water. Although there's no water nearby, it still gives a strong impression. It doesn't have many flowers, but they are exquisite.
The eunuch finished setting things out and left.
Xie Zhou sat beside his wife, looking at her with a warm and gentle demeanor, like a baby, and with an ethereal air about her alone in the pavilion in the rain.
The pomegranate blossoms, like fire, changed the atmosphere once again.
Then, a faint sour smell wafted through the air.
Xie Zhou watched his wife admiring the bonsai without even glancing at him. Was he not as good-looking as the bonsai?
Huan Yue rolled his eyes at him. How could he possibly bloom?
Xie Zhou, my dear wife, my dear wife, look if he's blossomed yet? Having a wife makes one blossom.
Huan Yue could beat him senseless even while he was lying still. Has this guy not found someone he's satisfied with? There are so many flowers in the world waiting for him to pick.
Xie Zhou has seen all the beauties, and now he only cherishes his wife.
Like a dog. Huan Yue suddenly wondered, did no one in the Zheng family break Pei Huanxu's legs?
Xie Zhou had some information: "Pei Huanxu is afraid of Zheng Kou now. It seems that when Zheng Kou caught him and locked him in a room overnight, Pei Huanxu actually begged for mercy."
Huan Yue sighed, "They're so useless, what are we supposed to do?"
Xie Zhou whispered in her ear, "I will not."
Huan Yue nodded: "I'll arrange as many concubines as you want."
Xie Zhou pursed his lips, feeling wronged. Was this a good thing or a bad thing? It mainly depended on his wife's expression.
Xie Zhou said very seriously, "You are not allowed to put people next to me. I know some families who just throw women onto their beds."
Huan Yue nodded: "I don't care about all that. I'll find Di Baose from now on."
Xie Zhou felt increasingly aggrieved: "You don't care about me anymore? Apart from you and me, everyone else is under Di Baose's jurisdiction."
Huan Yue found him annoying and had a headache.
Xie Zhou felt wronged, but quietly stayed by his side, until the end of time.
Di Baose came over with an umbrella and saw the two lying on the chairs, which looked strangely like a joint burial.
She might have been struck by lightning, or her brain might have gotten damp.
Xiuyun brought over a bowl of zongzi (sticky rice dumplings). They smelled delicious while they were still hot.
Huan Yue immediately sat up; she was a staunch advocate of salty foods, whether it was zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) or tofu pudding.
Because plain rice dumplings are eaten with white sugar, she doesn't eat plain rice dumplings; her favorite is naturally meat-filled rice dumplings.
The palace maid peeled the rice dumplings, scooped out the filling with a spoon, and fed them to the Empress.
This is the cleanest way to eat, even if Huan Yue likes to eat in big bites.
Di Baose saw that she had a small mouth but insisted on stuffing it with a big piece of fat. Didn't she get tired of eating such a big piece of fat every day? And she didn't even get fat.
Di Baose ate one meat-filled rice dumpling, then half a plain white rice dumpling, and refused to eat any more.
Huan Yue ate four in one go, all of them quite large, which was considered a show of politeness on her part.
Di Baose asked, "You haven't finished fixing it yet?"
Huan Yue said, "Let him recover slowly."
Di Baose nodded: "Go ahead and raise them." Raise pigs.
Xie Zhou held his wife's hand and said, "I will take care of you."
Di Baose felt a pang of jealousy and said, "My mother is making a fuss about coming again."
Xie Zhou frowned: "Why can't she understand?"
Huan Yue said, "She might have a princess complex, so everyone has to revolve around her. She's so old, yet she still acts like a little princess."
Di Baose said, "You must be mistaken. Apart from Princess Huayang and Princess Yongjia, which other princess in the palace revolves around her?"
This is a difficult problem, and Huan Yue has no solution.
Di Baose felt she had a solution.
Xie Zhou didn't think his wife should handle everything: "Zeng Huan is recovering from his injuries and preparing for a severe revenge."
Huan Yue said, "Let General Lü give him a good beating. Then find a bunch of scoundrels to flirt with him."
Di Baose was speechless: "Are you planning to deal with him using thuggish methods?"
Xie Zhou said, "He's a scoundrel."
Huan Yue laughed: "Perhaps he could even win against a rogue."
Xie Zhou believed in his abilities. It was a matter of shamelessness, but Zeng Huan had no teeth, so his speech might not be as fluent.
A palace attendant came to deliver a message: "The Empress Dowager summons Miss Zhang."
Huan Yue nodded, "Madam Dong won't stop: she's afraid people won't know about her relationship with Zeng Huan."
Di Baose said, "Isn't this using the Empress's status to appease Zhang Shu?"
Huan Yue said, "Zeng Huan insulted the emperor, and the empress went to appease his cousin?"
Di Baose thought she was right.
As for what the Dong family wants to do, let them do it.
Huan Yue asked, "What does Miss Zhang look like?"
The eunuch said, "She has some beauty."
Huan Yue thought about it and realized that Aunt Zeng Huan should be quite good-looking, so his cousin didn't necessarily have to be as ugly as Zeng Huan.
Xie Zhou understood and instructed someone to go to the inner palace to inform them.
Di Baose looked forward to it.
If Consort Su doesn't target Empress Dong, surely she can deal with Zhang Shu?
Anyway, Su Shi is the kind of person who always causes trouble. Even if she can't bully Xing Cairen, she has to do something every day.
Xie Zhou pulled his wife into the house and sat in the east wing.
Di Baose, with her thick skin, followed along.
In the tea room, a few lamps were lit, and the lighting was decent.
Although Huan Yue did not personally uproot the willow tree or move the stones back.
But Chaoyun still followed her instructions, making stones of various sizes and crafting a stone bench.
The stone next to it isn't really a stone table; it's just enough to put some things on.
There's also a stone basin here, filled with water and a few small fish, with a small flower pot next to it.
It's a bit damp and moss has grown on it, which is quite interesting.
I didn't collect any branches, but I did collect some tree roots. After some simple processing, they retained their natural beauty.
Di Baose turned around and looked at this small place, which was not as nice as the pavilion outside.
Even if you sit by the window, you can see the pavilion over there perfectly, and the distance is just right.
The flowers were blooming in the flowerbed, and Di Baose said, "Let's not turn this into a vegetable garden."
Huan Yue asked her, "Are you tired of growing vegetables?"
Di Baose said, "No. This is a flower garden. If you're going to make a vegetable garden, then make it a proper vegetable garden."
Huan Yue nodded; the place was too small.
It's not that the rear hall is small, but it shouldn't be used as a vegetable garden.
You can make a vegetable garden in the corner.
Xie Zhou was pondering where in the harem would be suitable to be a vegetable garden; he couldn't let his wife feel wronged just because she was growing vegetables.
By the way, Xie Zhou asked, "Why don't we grow vegetables in Shicui Palace?"
Huan Yue looked at him.
Xie Zhou looked into her bright eyes and blinked.
Huan Yue and Di Baose exchanged a glance, realizing their mistake!
Di Baose wanted to jump up! Shouldn't that country girl be growing vegetables in the palace?
Di Baose shouted, "Is there enough time?"
Huan Yue exclaimed excitedly, "We must make it in time! Even if it's just a part of the area, we'll try our best to create a pastoral atmosphere."
Di Baose immediately sent someone to do it, and she personally oversaw the process: "Although digging is inconvenient when it rains, the plants will grow quickly once they are planted."
Huan Yue advised, "At least it's your intention."
