Chapter 271 Tangyuan Dumplings
The sky was covered with gorgeous clouds and dotted with stars. When Zhou Ge'er woke up, he found that it was getting late, so he asked the servant to help him change his clothes. He trotted to the dining room.
"Aunt and uncle, I'm here!" His fair face was flushed and he ran fast, probably because he had just woken up.
Su Zhenzhen smiled and waved, "Come and wash your hands, these are all your favorite foods." His peach blossom eyes curved like a chick pecking at rice, "Thank you, auntie~"
Rong Jinchen picked up some food for Su Zhenzhen as usual, glanced at Zhou Ge'er who was eating happily, and also used his serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of fried river shrimp that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside for him.
It's rare that this little guy is so friendly and generous. He's not afraid of strangers the first time I see him.
Although Zhou Ge'er was enjoying his meal and even couldn't help but put his feet up under the table, his eating manners were very polite. "Thank you, uncle~" He used the chopsticks very smoothly.
Su Zhenzhen also fed him a bowl of pheasant soup, "Brother Zhou, try this, it tastes very good." She asked someone to put it next to his bowl.
"The soup and rice at my aunt's house are delicious. Brother Zhou can eat two bowls." He is really outstanding, and he finally got the chance.
My aunt and uncle were away for the past two years. Now they have finally returned to Beijing for a long stay, and he wants to eat for free.
"Brother Zhou really knows how to eat. This is the thousand-year tribute rice. If it tastes good, eat more." Although the Su family was favored by the emperor, it was impossible for them to eat the imperial food for every meal. It was a unique event in the capital to let everyone have a meal during the New Year and other festivals.
Other families placed the imperial meals given to them in the ancestral hall for offering.
After dinner, Zhou Ge'er thought he could be free. He also thought that he could take the opportunity to stop writing calligraphy and practicing martial arts and give himself a secret vacation.
How could Su Qiyang and Su Yu not know what this kid was thinking?
He was still kept in the dark.
I thought I had enough food, drink and fun, and I didn't have to practice martial arts, write or memorize books. I was as happy as a bird flying freely in the sky.
Soon his joy turned into sorrow.
Su Zhenzhen looked at Zhou Ge'er with a smile: "Zhou Ge'er, your father, my second brother, brought your luggage and homework with him. He said he would pick you up during the Lantern Festival. So it's time to do your homework." She was also going to start supervising her nephew to do his winter vacation homework.
Zhou Ge'er, who was originally grinning from ear to ear, froze. He still wanted to go and see if his little cousin had woken up.
He looked pitifully at his dear uncle.
Unfortunately, Rong Jinchen is the same, he is also very strict about his schoolwork.
"Brother Zhou, it's time for you to write big characters. Your uncle will supervise you." He could also use Brother Zhou as an experiment first to know how he should arrange homework for Chaochao in the future.
Zhou Ge'er: ...
The third day of the Lunar New Year.
Xu Siyu hurriedly brought her husband and son to Prince Yan's Mansion.
Her little sisters finally had time to spend time with her. In the past few years, she had no chance to play with Zhenzhen.
Zhenzhen had been married for only three and a half years, but she had been away from home for two years, and she could only write letters to Zhenzhen.
His Royal Highness Prince Yan was so clingy that she couldn't find a chance to go shopping with Zhenzhen.
The year they got married, when His Royal Highness Prince Yan ended his honeymoon leave and went to court, she and Zhenzhen went out briefly a few times, but later they didn't go out again because it was winter.
Then the following year, after she got married, they started going on business trips (honeymoons) at their own expense.
When I came back, it was the end of the year and I couldn’t go out to play.
Last year, Zhenzhen became pregnant again, and they only went out to play a few times at the beginning of the year when His Royal Highness Prince Yan was on duty.
Why are her little sisters becoming more and more lazy?
And it is only when His Royal Highness Prince Yan is not around that Zhenzhen would think of her close friend.
What happened to the saying that sisters are like siblings and men are like clothes?
Xu Siyu felt sad.
She saluted them familiarly: "Your Highness the Prince of Yan and Her Majesty the Princess." When she saw Su Zhenzhen coming to help her, she looked at her with a bright smile.
Zhou Xi next to him was a beat slower, "Your humble servant pays homage to His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan and Her Majesty the Princess." He bowed and said.
Their son Heng'er (Zhou Heng), also known as Jiaozi, was held by his wet nurse to pay his respects.
Rong Jinchen nodded slightly and whispered: "No need to be polite." He had seen Zhou Xi quite a lot in the past few years and was quite familiar with him. He was a smart person.
Regardless of whether Rong Jinchen is in the mansion or not, as long as Zhou Xi is not on duty, he will send Xu Siyu to Prince Yan's mansion.
Moreover, this person is eloquent, good at reading people's expressions, and capable, so he is a capable person.
Su Zhenzhen looked at the chubby Jiaozi and blinked in surprise, "Yuyu, I haven't seen Jiaozi for several months. How come he looks so cute!" Jiaozi looks 50% like Yuyu and 50% like his father.
The last time Su Zhenzhen saw Jiaozi was when she was seven or eight months pregnant. After she became pregnant, Xu Siyu often came to play with her when Rong Jinchen was not around.
During the two months when Rong Jinchen was away to quell the rebellion, she would schedule shifts with Su Zhenzhen's mother, sister-in-law, and the fifth princess every few days, one day each, to try not to let Su Zhenzhen get bored.
After Rong Jinchen came back, she became very considerate and came once or twice a month.
Therefore, Rong Jinchen is more tolerant of his close friend Su Zhenzhen than others. There are not many people who can say good things to him and not act like a light bulb.
Correspondingly, the wife is honored and the husband is respected, and Zhou Xi also has a good impression on him.
Jiaozi turned two years old just after the Chinese New Year. She looked at Heng Ge'er, whose face looked like Xu Siyu, eyes like Zhou Xi, and mouth also like Xu Siyu, and thought, "How many girls will he charm in the future?" He smiled sweetly, like a little puppy.
"Auntie, hug me~" Jiaozi looked very similar to Xu Siyu when she smiled, like a little soft cheese coated with honey.
Just as Su Zhenzhen held him up, little Tangyuan was brought over by Gu Heng, followed by Zhou Ge'er who looked eagerly at him.
Rong Jinchen took the little Tangyuan skillfully, and then coaxed the little Tangyuan who had just woken up and was in a bad mood.
Little Tangyuan's temper is very similar to Su Zhenzhen. He gets angry easily when he doesn't get enough sleep. At this moment, he buried his head in his father's neck, pouting his little mouth and talking "Ah, ah, ah..."
He was just so angry. He felt the warmth of his father and mother were not beside him, and he woke up in anger. Humph.
Rong Jinchen patted his shoulder gently and said, "Chao Chao, don't be angry. Daddy and Mommy shouldn't have left you alone. Don't be angry." He glanced at Su Zhenzhen helplessly, with obvious meaning in his eyes.
Su Zhenzhen's face turned red. She was a little excited when she heard that Yuyu was coming. She directly pulled Rong Jinchen to the main hall.
The last time they met was at Xiao Tangyuan's full moon party. There were other people there, but they didn't talk much.
Is it not okay for her to listen to Yu Yu talk about gossip in the capital?
Although it was not the first time that Zhou Xi saw the usually distant and indifferent Prince Yan show this kind of expression to the little prince, but the Prince Yan was not so virtuous at the full moon banquet.
Zhou Ge'er tugged at Rong Jinchen's brocade robe and said, "Uncle, I have finished writing my big characters." He had learned his lesson today. He didn't have to be urged by his uncle after he finished writing during the day like he did yesterday. Although his uncle would not scold him, he was afraid.
Zhou Ge'er had to admit that his uncle was truly the most powerful man he had ever met, even more powerful than his father.
