Chapter 269 Misunderstanding, Princess Shu is going to insist?
The third day of the Wanshou Festival is the day to celebrate Emperor Ming’s birthday.
It was time to get up before dawn and go to the palace. Even though Lin Miaoyin had gone to bed early the night before, she was still so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes when she got up.
After a violent inner struggle, she finally got up from the couch.
As a veteran office worker, there is nothing more cruel than getting up early in the winter.
Everywhere outside the bed is far away!
As soon as I opened the window, I heard Xiaodie's surprised voice, "Miss, look, it's snowing outside."
"Why is the window open? The lady is not dressed yet!"
Yuzhu was helping Lin Miaoyin put on her clothes while scolding her, "Close it quickly. It would be terrible if the young lady caught a cold."
After Xiaodie closed the window, she fetched some water for Lin Miaoyin to wash.
By the time she dressed and went out, half an hour had passed. A thin layer of snow had accumulated on the open ground outside, and the maids were sweeping the snow with brooms.
Maybe because of the snow, the sun rises later than usual today.
The sky was still dark at this time.
Lin Miaoyin wrapped her clothes around her and walked out of the door.
Xiaodie held an umbrella and Yuzhu supported her with her hands. The two of them protected her on both sides, fearing that something might happen.
The sedan chair had been waiting in the yard and immediately came forward when she came out.
Lin Miaoyin had already entered the sedan chair before her feet even stepped into the snow, isolating herself from the wind and snow outside.
When I arrived at the outer courtyard, I found out that Beigong You had gone out early in the morning.
Seeing the carriage parked outside the mansion, Lin Miaoyin did not plan to wait for Beigong You. She wanted to enter the palace earlier so that she could talk to the queen.
As soon as the carriage drove out of the alley they were in and headed towards Tianrun Street, they saw a familiar figure standing in front of a sugar-roasted chestnut shop.
"It looks like the prince!" Guyu said excitedly, "Let's wait for the prince together."
Before the prince left, he told him to wait outside the door and that he would be back soon after buying some things. He also told the princess to wait for a while if she came.
This is what he had just told the princess. Unexpectedly, the princess brought up the queen. He had no choice but to drive the carriage first. Unexpectedly, he met the prince here. Now he had a reason to wait for the prince together.
He thought about it and grinned. He was so damn smart!
The carriage suddenly stopped. Yuzhu lifted the curtain and looked out in dissatisfaction, "Why did it stop suddenly?"
"The prince is there!" Guyu raised his hand and pointed.
"Hurry up and get in the carriage. My young lady just said she wants to go into the palace first." Yuzhu urged.
"The prince is coming soon, princess, please wait a moment."
Under Guyu's persuasion, the carriage stopped on the side of Tianrun Street.
Lin Miaoyin felt a little sleepy, so she leaned on the soft pillow and went to sleep. Yuzhu was anxious and lifted a corner of the car curtain to look outside from time to time.
Seeing Beigong You bought sugar-roasted chestnuts, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally I can leave.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a horse-drawn carriage drove out from the alley and went straight towards Beigong You, who was holding the sugar-roasted chestnuts.
The carriage stopped in front of Beigong You, and the curtain was opened, revealing a white wrist and a graceful face. "Ayou, what a coincidence?"
Beigong You was a little surprised to meet Chen Zhimo here, because half an hour ago, Beigong Shu had already gone to the palace in a carriage. He didn't expect that the couple did not enter the palace together.
He didn't say much and just called her sister-in-law politely.
Chen Zhimo didn't care about Beigong You's indifference. She fixed her eyes on the oil paper that Beigong You carefully protected, with a look of surprise in her eyes, "Is this sugar-roasted chestnuts?"
She said as she looked at the shop across the street with a long line of people, "Is this the one you always bought things for me from before?"
Beigong You nodded.
"Mother, what is this? Is it delicious?" Beigong Youxuan asked curiously.
This was the first time she had seen this kind of snack. Although she didn't know what it tasted like, there was a sweet scent in the air, so she thought it must be good.
"This is sugar-roasted chestnuts. It's sweet and sticky, and very delicious."
Chen Zhimo couldn't help but recall the good old days as she spoke, "When mother was still in Shengjing, every winter, your fourth uncle would bring back some sugar-roasted chestnuts for mother whenever he went out."
"I haven't eaten it for nearly ten years since I married and moved to Jiangling. Every winter, I miss the sugar-roasted chestnuts in Shengjing. But the mountains are high and the waters are long, so I can't eat it even if I want to." There was some regret in her tone.
She smiled softly as she spoke, unable to hide her emotion in her eyes, "Ayou, it's amazing that you still remember my preferences."
Beigong You was originally still hesitating whether to share some of the sugar-roasted chestnuts in his hand with Chen Zhimo, but when he heard this, he realized that she had misunderstood.
Before he could open his mouth to explain, Chen Zhimo had already touched Beigong Youxuan's head and said, "Xuan'er, why don't you thank your fourth uncle quickly."
"Thank you, Fourth Uncle."
"You're welcome." Looking at Beigong Youxuan's innocent and happy eyes, Beigong You hesitated and handed over the sugar-roasted chestnuts wrapped in oil paper in his hand.
"Your Majesty, I bought the soup dumplings!"
"Your Majesty, I've also bought the double hemp fire and oil tea!"
Beigong You and Chen Zhimo were talking when Feng Ming and Shuangjiang came over carrying a bunch of things.
Chen Zhimo's eyes flashed with surprise, "Why did you buy so much? Xuan'er and I can't finish it all. You can take some."
Feng Ming and Shuang Jiang looked at each other and immediately realized that Princess Shu had misunderstood.
Just as I was about to explain, a sarcastic voice came from the other side, "Prince Ning bought breakfast for Princess Shu, but asked my young lady to wait here. What's the logic behind this?"
Yuzhu was so angry when she saw this scene that her lungs almost exploded.
When Feng Ming heard the anger in her words, he didn't care about Chen Zhimo at all, and hurried over to explain, "No, you misunderstood..."
"What misunderstanding? Don't tell me these things were originally bought for my young lady."
Yuzhu snorted coldly, "You are lying with your eyes open. It has already been delivered to Princess Shu, and you are still explaining it? I don't believe it. If Prince Ning doesn't want to give it, can Princess Shu still force it to take it?"
As she spoke, she looked at Chen Zhimo, whose expression was a little stagnant, and asked for confirmation: "Isn't it, Princess Shu?"
Before Chen Zhimo could say anything, Beigong Youxuan handed over the sugar-roasted chestnuts in her hand, "Mother, this is what Fourth Uncle bought for Fourth Aunt."
"Ayou, I'm sorry, I don't know..." Chen Zhimo pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly.
"It's okay, give it to Youxuan." Beigong You didn't take it.
What would it be like to get back something you gave away?
Chen Zhimo breathed a sigh of relief, a smile forming on the corner of her mouth. She pushed Beigong Youxuan beside her and said, "Xuan'er, why don't you thank your fourth uncle quickly?"
"Thank you, Fourth Uncle." Beigong Youxuan said obediently.
"Just now I saw you queuing up to buy sugar-roasted chestnuts and I thought it was... Ah You, I'm really sorry. I'll have someone buy some and send them to Prince Ning's mansion someday. Please apologize to Miaoyin on my behalf and ask her not to be so mean to her cousin."
Beigong You shook his head gently, "No, I'll buy it for her another day."
"Your Highness, these soup dumplings... I'm afraid they are not enough for the princess alone. I didn't know that Princess Shu was here, otherwise I would have bought some more." Shuangjiang spoke before Beigong You could mention the soup dumplings.
