Today, I went to the palace to light a lantern with the emperor, and then returned home.

The Queen had no idea what was going on, so she left the Crown Princess and the Crown Grand Princess behind.

The grandson accompanied the prince back and settled him down.

After thinking about it, he stepped into the backyard.

This was his first time visiting the concubine.

As soon as I entered, I found that there were several colorful lights lit in the yard, making it bright.

With the doors and windows open, you can see that the house is bustling with activity. There is a charcoal stove and a copper pot on it is steaming.

What is cooking? Before entering the house, I smelled a pleasant smell, which seemed to be southern fermented rice wine, which seemed to be called Laozao.

A palace maid saw him coming and quickly bowed, "Madam Concubine, the Crown Prince is here."

Jiang Pingting saw the glutinous rice balls floating up, and after one more roll, they could be put into the bowl.

Why is he here?! At this time! I was annoyed. The rules stood up: "Your Highness!"

The Crown Prince felt uncomfortable seeing her perfunctory attitude and lack of smile.

Whoever's room he enters, won't they all be excited?

Even Xue Ying, no matter how angry she was, would get better once I went there.

Hey, why does your face look so stinky? "Well, let me take a look. What are you doing here?"

"Cook the dumplings."

"Why do you cook it yourself? The kitchen didn't deliver it?"

"This was sent in raw from outside. So cook it yourself!"

"Nonsense! How can food from outside be brought in so easily?"

"Yes. Pay attention next time!" Jiang Pingting said indifferently, but her eyes were fixed on the pot.

It’s already cooked. It won’t taste good if it’s overcooked.

"Your Highness, please take a seat. Your Highness, the dumplings are ready. Would you like to try two?"

The prince complained in his heart: Two? Only two for me? What a rare thing! Humph.

"Okay, give me a bowl..."

Jiang Pingting was very angry.

Wen Yu asked Yan Zhu to bring the lantern and a box of glutinous rice balls, only twenty of them! Fortunately, there was also a can of fermented glutinous rice.

At this moment, she has cooked half of it.

There are still ten left, I want to cook them for breakfast tomorrow! She has a good appetite! These ten will be her midnight snack after dinner...

But he has already said...

"Qiu'er, get another bowl for His Highness!"

The prince seemed to sense a hint of disdain...

Qiu'er responded. She was not sure how many the Queen intended to give His Highness, so she just handed the bowl to the Queen.

At this moment, Jiang Pingting also figured it out!

If you want to eat, let Zhuzhu cook it! Don’t be stingy now.

So she filled five for the grandson, half for each. That shouldn't be considered stingy, right? But it seemed a little short, so she added some fermented glutinous rice and handed it to the grandson.

The grandson took it and ate half a bowl. She was really generous! Jiang Pingting ignored him and scooped up the food herself, eating happily.

The grandson looked displeased and threw one into his mouth. It was so hot...

I quickly caught it with a spoon and glanced around. Fortunately, no one saw it.

Biting it open... so fragrant! Black sesame?! The palace is used to the northern Yuanxiao, which is tougher and has a stronger taste than this.

This one melts in your mouth, with the aroma of fermented glutinous rice wine. When you eat it, a warm current comes up along with the fragrance.

Well, that's really good.

Biting again, what is this?

After tasting it carefully for a while, it seems to taste like peanuts.

Another one, sour, hawthorn? And this one is...meat?

"Is this meat?" he asked.

Jiang Pingting said: "It's salty ham! Delicious!"

The prince ate it all accidentally, even drinking up the fermented glutinous rice.

Holding the empty bowl, I watched Jiang Pingting chewing slowly.

"Anything else?" he asked.

Jiang Pingting didn't want to say anything, so she chewed for a while and swallowed it all. She saw that the prince was still waiting for her answer.

"There are ten more."

"Cook them all, I'll take them to my father!"

"..." Jiang Pingting felt that he was shameless. Did he just want to eat it?

"Didn't you say that it was sent in from outside..."

"I've tried it for my father, it's okay."

"Will it get cold if you bring it over? It's not good for the prince to eat these cold and sticky things."

"Take the glutinous rice balls and the rice wine, and find a maid who can cook with you! Goodbye, you can go and cook by yourself!"

"…" My breakfast is ruined, how can I work?!

Jiang Pingting secretly hated him, why did she invite him here? !

So, the Crown Prince happily took the concubine to the Crown Prince's study in front.

The prince saw them come in and asked, only to find out that she was the general's daughter.

She was brought into the palace by the Crown Princess.

The general and his son have fought for the court. It is not good to let the general's daughter become his son's concubine.

But by the time he knew it, it was already a done deal.

Jiang Pingting's skilled movements showed that she worked often, so the prince chatted with her for a while.

Jiang Pingting said that when her grandfather and father were in office, sometimes there was a shortage of manpower, so she had to cook herself.

He also talked about some of his experiences, and the prince and grandson listened with great interest.

After the glutinous rice balls were cooked, the prince only allowed the prince to eat two. In the end, after the prince had been nagging for a while, he gave him one more. The prince was already very beautiful just to be able to taste the taste of fermented glutinous rice! Then, when Jiang Pingting saw the prince, she shamelessly ate all the rest...

"Huh? There's also jasmine flavor? I didn't eat it just now..."

…

Wen Yu and Yan Zhu held hands, looked around, and were extremely excited.

When there are many people, Qi Wu walks in front.

When there were few people around, Qi Wu followed behind.

Looking at the two girls, like two happy little birds, he couldn't help but curl his lips slightly...

Passing an intersection with people coming and going from all directions, Laba took Yan Zhu across.

Before Wen Yu could react, a dozen people came from the right and pushed towards her.

Qi Wu took a step forward, holding her shoulders with one hand and pulling her hand back with the other...

Fragrant shoulders, delicate hands, so light and soft... Suddenly, he blushed.

It feels like a fish is flapping in my heart...

This feeling made him feel uncomfortable and happy...

I thought, this is the first time he held a girl's hand. Of course, except for Xiao Yuanyuan...

At this time, the girl named Qin Lianyue...

Ever since he got engaged, he had flown far away. And now, he disappeared without a trace.

As if I never recognized it.

…

In fact, Qin Lianyue was not missing, but was among the dozen people who had just met Wen Yu! Moreover, she had been looking for Qi Wu.

However, Qi Wu was wearing a mask and she didn’t recognize him.

Qi Wu could have seen her, but at that time, he was distracted by Wen Yu's fragrant shoulders and beautiful hands!

I guess even the sky will fall, people will realize it later...

So, they missed it perfectly.

I don’t know what will happen if I don’t miss it…

…

Yang Xiangdong was still relatively cautious and put on his hat, holding a folding fan in his hand to shield his face when there were people around.

He was very hardworking in school and work. So he had never been to such a lantern festival before, and he didn't know there would be so many people!

Wei's sexy outfit didn't reveal her, so no one paid much attention to her.

As we were walking, someone suddenly said, "Even if I give you another half an hour, you still won't be able to guess it!"

Yang Xiangdong was shocked when he heard this: This is his sister-in-law, Madam Li's son, and his wife's nephew! "Who said that?! If you weren't around to make trouble, I would have guessed it a long time ago!" said another person.

Several people came from behind him and walked forward.

Yang Xiangdong was so frightened that he took two steps and ran into the shop next door.

Wei didn't notice and continued walking slowly forward.

The group of young men passed by her and smelled a strong fragrance. One of them looked at her quietly, but didn't stop and walked forward.

Yang Xiangdong stole a glance at a few people and saw them leave. He breathed a sigh of relief, but was afraid that Wei might be suspicious, so he hurried out.

As a result, there was a boy selling masks on the roadside...

ah?!

This is a good thing! "How much is the mask?"

The boy smiled sincerely: "Fifty taels of silver each."

Yang Xiangdong had already lost the ability to think. He took out his banknotes and selected one worth 100 yuan. "I want this one with a flower ornament, and this one."

The boy was originally selling them for one or two taels of silver each.

Because of the high asking price, only two have been sold so far.

But he still insisted on the principle of whether to sell or not, originally it was just a matter of watching the lights...

This kid is very cunning. I just saw this man dodging. Although I don’t know what he is hiding from, I am sure... hehe...

So, he opened his mouth and asked for a sky-high price, waiting for him to bargain!

As a result, Yang Xiangdong simply threw out a silver note and took two.

Wei Xiangyu was just saying, "I looked all the way, and it was just now..." When she turned around, eh? The person was gone? She was surprised and stopped, only to see Yang Xiangdong fiddling with something.

"What are you doing?"

"Ayu, look, isn't it interesting?! We both wear the same clothes, and each of us wears one, how fun is that!?"

"Isn't it dirty?" Wei Xiangyu said with disgust.

"It's not dirty, look! This seller is also clean and tidy. Put it on!"

Wei Xiangyu also found it interesting, so they both put it on.

Yang Xiangdong breathed a sigh of relief: God helps me!

The mask seller was so excited that he almost cried. As soon as they left, he ran away.

This person is Li Yuan.

He came out to see the lanterns and sold the masks and lanterns made by the girls.

I’m rich, I’m rich!

Go back and tell dad and Master Qing, tell the girl!

How they would praise me!
