Chapter 499, Hug
At the back door of the Xiao residence, Daohua, supported by Yan Wenkai, stepped out of the carriage and saw Xiao Yeyang standing at the door. She immediately asked with a smile, "How did you know we were coming?"
Looking at Daohua, who was dressed in a red jacket and red skirt, looking cheerful, Xiao Yeyang couldn't help but smile up and walked forward: "I had a big meal at noon and was taking a walk. I heard the sound of the carriage and came over to take a look."
After saying that, I couldn't help but want to reach out and hold someone's hand.
However, Yan Wenkai stood between him and the rice flowers nonchalantly.
Xiao Yeyang took a deep breath and resisted the urge to punch Yan Wenkai away.
Daohua smiled and said, "Have you finished the food I sent you?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded.
Daohua smiled immediately: "I brought you some snacks. You can have them as a snack when you stay up all night tonight."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and patted Yan Wentao on the shoulder: "Let's go inside. It's very cold outside."
Four people walked in.
On the way, Wen Kai saw that the house was bare of any New Year decorations and couldn't help but say, "Young Prince, it's New Year's Eve, why haven't you bought anything? Compared to other people's houses with all their lights and decorations, yours is so plain."
Xiao Yeyang said calmly: "I don't need to go through so much trouble alone."
Daohua disagreed: "You have to celebrate the New Year alone. I brought couplets, window decorations, and peach charms. You can decorate them later."
Xiao Yeyang looked at her and did not object.
Yan Wenkai also said: "Yes, yes, we will help you get it later. It's New Year's Day, how can we not add some joy?"
Daohua said again: "Xiao Yeyang, you can draw, right? Why don't you draw a few New Year pictures for us later? We can take them back and hang them in our room."
Xiao Yeyang looked over and said with a smile, "What type of New Year pictures do you want?"
Daohua: "It's up to you. As long as it's festive, joyful, and has a good meaning, it's fine."
Yan Wenkai immediately said, "Young Prince, I want a Carp Leaping Over the Dragon Gate."
Yan Wentao: "Then I want a bountiful harvest."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at the two of them and said, "You're so polite."
The two of them laughed.
Yan Wenkai: "Little Prince, you help us draw New Year pictures, and we help you decorate the house. It's a win-win situation."
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment: "Don't call me Little Prince anymore, just call me by my name."
When these words were spoken, Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao were both stunned, and even Daohua looked over.
Looking at the reactions of the three people, Xiao Yeyang pulled out a smile, but his eyes were a little dim. He said nothing and continued walking forward.
Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao looked at each other, and saw confusion and surprise in each other's eyes.
Daohua felt a little distressed. Prince Ping had made Concubine Ma his legal wife, and Xiao Yeyang was no longer the only legitimate son. The title of the royal palace might not be his in the future. The three words "young prince" might sound a bit harsh to his ears now.
Soon, they arrived at the courtyard where Xiao Yeyang lived.
"Forget about the other courtyards. I don't usually live there, so let's just decorate this one."
Daohua: "Okay!" As she said that, she motioned Wang Maner to bring over the things she brought.
"Did you cut this window paper?"
Xiao Yeyang picked up a window paper with the words "Peace and Happiness" and looked at the rice flowers with a smile.
Rice Flower nodded and said, "All the things I brought were cut by myself, so I have to stick them all on later. I can't waste them."
Xiao Yeyang said with a smile in his eyes: "Okay, put them all on."
Because Xiao Yeyang had just asked them to call his name, Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao didn't know how to start talking and could only call him "that".
Yan Wenkai held up the couplet and asked, "Where should I put this couplet?"
Xiao Yeyang pointed at Defu and said, "Go ask Defu." After that, he continued to help Daohua paste window paper-cuts.
Yan Wenkai moved closer to Defu and pulled him to a corner. "What happened to the young prince?"
Defu glanced at his master and didn't answer. Instead, he smiled and changed the subject: "Third Master, Fourth Master, there are two new Arabian horses in the stable. Would you like to go take a look?"
When they heard about the Ferghana horse, Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao's eyes lit up.
Yan Wenkai asked excitedly, "When did you come?"
Defu smiled and said, "It was sent over a few days ago by Governor Guo."
Yan Wenkai nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, take us over there to have a look."
Yan Wentao glanced at Daohua and Xiao Yeyang who were standing together pasting window flowers, and looked a little hesitant.
Defu saw it and immediately smiled and said, "Just go and take a look, we'll be back soon." Of course, he was just talking. He didn't believe that after seeing the Arabian horses, these two gentlemen would not be able to resist riding them for a few laps.
Yan Wenkai looked at Yan Wentao and said, "Then let's go take a look?"
Seeing Yan Wentao still hesitant, Defu thought for a moment and sighed, "Hey, didn't the Fourth Master just ask me what happened to my master? Something happened in the capital."
As he spoke, he led people out.
Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao were curious and followed.
Xiao Yeyang glanced at the two people who were taken away by Defu, curled the corners of his mouth, said nothing, and continued to paste window paper-cuts with Daohua.
"The left side of the window grille goes up a little bit, and the right side goes down a little bit."
"Is it okay?"
"No, it's still crooked."
"Is this okay?"
"It's a little better than before, but the left side still needs to move up a bit."
“.”
After pasting up all the window decorations she brought, Daohua clapped her hands in satisfaction, "Finally, it feels a bit like the New Year." Then, she looked around and said, "Huh? Where are my third and fourth brothers?"
Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "I don't know."
Daohua waved her hands and ignored it, instead picking up the couplets again: "Let's go and put up the couplets."
Seeing Daohua standing on the stool, Xiao Yeyang hurried over and said, "Let me do it."
Daohua shook her head: "No, it's hard for you to put up a window paper-cut, I'll do it."
Xiao Yeyang had no choice but to help her hold the stool and be ready to receive people at any time.
"Can you please show me if it's crooked?"
"No."
"Really?"
"Really not."
"Okay, I'll put it on like this."
After sticking one side, Daohua turned around and looked at Xiao Yeyang who was holding the stool, and waved her hand: "Move aside, I can get down."
"Then slow down!" Xiao Yeyang stepped back.
The stool was a bit high, and Xiao Yeyang was a little worried. Just as he stretched out his hand to support Daohua, he saw Daohua standing on the stool and jumping down directly. He was immediately scared and hurriedly ran over to help her.
in this way
The rice flowers jumped directly onto Xiao Yeyang.
Seeing herself hugging Xiao Yeyang's neck and hanging on him, Daohua froze.
Xiao Yeyang also had a tense expression on his face, his eyes wide open as he looked at Daohua who was hugging him.
The two looked at each other and forgot to speak.
After a while, Daohua was the first to look away and whispered, "You can let me go now."
"oh!"
Xiao Yeyang came back to his senses and quickly put down the rice flowers.
Both of them felt a little embarrassed and avoided looking at each other.
"Um. I'll go paste the other side."
Daohua picked up the couplet on the other side, and Xiao Yeyang immediately helped move the stool.
This time after the stickers were pasted, Daohua didn't dare to jump directly. She was supported by Xiao Yeyang and slowly came down.
"It's cold outside, let's go inside."
As he said that, Xiao Yeyang pulled Daohua into the house and said, "You wanted New Year pictures, right? I'll draw them for you right away."
The two went to the study, but Defu was not there, so Xiao Yeyang had to prepare the drawing paper and paint himself.
Daohua asked, "How can I help you?"
Xiao Yeyang was picking up paint and pointed to the bookshelf: "Can you help me get some rice paper?"
"good."
Daohua walked to the bookshelf and picked up a few rolls of rice paper, then spread them out on the table. When she opened one of the rolls, she found that there was a portrait painted on it.
"Who is this?"
"Clang~"
As soon as the sound of rice flowers fell, all the paint in Xiao Yeyang's hands fell to the ground.
When Daohua turned around, she saw Xiao Yeyang's face full of gloom and he was trying hard to endure it.
Daohua hurried over and asked worriedly, "Xiao Yeyang, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me."
Seeing the worry and astonishment in Daohua's eyes, the depressing aura on Xiao Yeyang slowly subsided, and he couldn't help but reach out and hug her.
