"Your Majesty, the Inner Court Department has sent you the regular rewards for the Dragon Boat Festival, do you want to see it?" Jin Qing opened the curtain and came in, and said to Su Qingwan who was still having breakfast.

"Why is it so early this year?" Su Qingwan asked in surprise.

"Where did he send it early? It's obvious that you got up late again." Mu Luoluo also lifted the curtain and came in, behind her was a little maid with a tray filled with japonica rice and zong leaves. "I looked at the japonica rice and zong leaves prepared in the small kitchen." Very good, so I brought some over and wrapped a few by myself, which is also considered a joy."

"Since it's a festive season, you should be more relaxed." Su Qingwan frowned, took a piece of pastry and fed it to Mu Luoluo who was sitting opposite her, and then said quietly, "Remove the breakfast, the regular reward from the inner court secretary , there are only a few things on the left and right, and they are not very good-looking, so take the sachets separately, bring in some of the five-color silk thread, and share a share with the rest of the maids, and weave a colorful sash by yourself."

"Yes." Jin Qing responded.

"Speaking of multicolored sash, I made one for you." Mu Luoluo said while taking out a red cloth bag from his bosom, unfolding it, it was a delicate multicolored sash.

"No wonder you always hid from me in Nannuan Xiaozhu a few days ago. It was because of this." Su Qingwan stretched out her wrist and signaled Mu Luoluo to tie it for herself. After tying it, Su Qingwan turned her wrist and said with a smile, " But it's really just right."

"After all, I'm skin-to-skin with you every day. If you don't know how big your wrist is, wouldn't it be improper for you to be a wife?" Mu Luoluo asked with a smile.

"Frivolous." Su Qingwan glared at Mu Luoluo coquettishly, blushed, then got up and went back to the inner room, and came back with a pear box in a short while, "But coincidentally, I will take advantage of your absence to help You made one."

After Su Qingwan fastened it to Mu Luoluo, Mu Luoluo took a closer look and couldn't help laughing, "This is really a tacit understanding."

"What?" Su Qingwan was taken aback, Mu Luoluo raised her finger and pointed to the colorful sash on Su Qingwan's wrist, Su Qingwan looked closely, and found that both of them used their own black silk instead of the black thread sash.

"I originally thought that no matter what the situation is, I can't be by your side all the time. If I weave my blue silk into a colorful sash, and you wear it, it will be considered that I am always by your side." Su Qingwan gently Rubbing the colorful ribbon on his wrist, he smiled softly.

"Me too." Mu Luoluo leaned over, kissed Su Qingwan lightly on the forehead, and then got up, "I'll go and call Jin Qing in, I'm a married woman, and it's time to learn how to make zongzi."

"Call Hei Yao in together, that child is cute, and I feel at ease seeing her." Su Qingwan pulled down the cuffs, covering the colorful ribbons on her wrists.

Mu Luoluo nodded, raised the curtain and called the two of them in. The four of them gathered around the table, standing or standing, having fun.

"The hands of Hei Yao are really ingenious." Su Qingwan was full of praise as she held up the Baisuo zongzi wrapped around Hei Yao.

"Your Majesty praised it absurdly. It's just a handicraft that the servants used to make a living when they were young." Hei Yao smiled, and the two dimples were very intoxicating.

"Hei Yao is not only dexterous, but also has a very good voice. I heard from Hu Po that Hei Yao sang to the little sisters in Nannuan Xiaozhu, and they all said it was very good." Jin Qing laughed.

"It's true." Mu Luoluo wrapped up the zongzi in her hand and placed it on a tray beside her. "I heard you singing in the imperial garden, as if you were from Yunzhou?"

"Yes, the maidservant's ancestral home is in Yunzhou, and there are three younger sisters and one younger brother in the family, so they couldn't afford to support them, so they asked someone to send the maidservant to the palace, so they could have something warm to eat." Hei Yao said calmly.

Su Qingwan raised her eyes and glanced at Hei Yao. Mu Luoluo's eyes are vicious. This child is indeed a malleable talent. He has been with Shangqing Palace for only two months. It seems that he made a living by looking at people's faces very early on. reason.It's just that this exquisite mind is too ingenious, if you can concentrate on it, it will be a sharp weapon, if you can't concentrate on it... Su Qingwan lowered her eyes.

"If you have nothing to do, why don't you sing a few lines and listen to it." Mu Luoluo said.

"The tune sung by the servant is vulgar, I'm afraid it will pollute the mother's ears." Hei Yao smiled shyly.

"It's okay." Su Qingwan waved her hand, taking advantage of Mu Luoluo's pause, leaned over and snatched the red dates from her fingertips.

"You don't want to eat the golden candied dates that are in your hand, but you want to take them from me. What do you mean?" Mu Luoluo smiled helplessly, and had to take another one and put it into the rice dumpling.

"It's not as delicious as the ones in Luoluo's hands. Besides, Luoluo's jade fingers are really memorable." Su Qingwan said, and stretched out the tip of her tongue to sweep her lips deftly.

Mu Luoluo was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized that just now when Su Qingwan took away the jujube, she licked her fingertips. She thought it was unintentional, but now it seems that she did it on purpose.

Su Qingwan looked at Mu Luoluo quite complacently. She was always being treated lightly by her, but today she finally managed to win back.

Unexpectedly, Mu Luoluo met Su Qingwan's gaze, slowly raised her hand, stretched out her tongue and licked it lightly on her fingertips, and then added a light kiss.

When Mu Luoluo was doing this series of movements, she kept looking at Su Qingwan with a smile, watching the complacent look on Su Qingwan's face fade away, and then she blushed quickly up to her ears.

Hei Yao, who had witnessed the whole process, blushed involuntarily, and hurriedly lowered his head, concentrating on the work in hand.

"Okay, there's no need to pack too much, there's a lot in the small kitchen." Mu Luoluo looked as usual, but her earlobes were slightly red.

"The servant sent these to the small kitchen." Hei Yao hurriedly got up, picked up the tray, and walked out the door as if fleeing, followed closely by Jin Qing.

"Look at you!" Su Qingwan raised her hand and poked Mu Luoluo's forehead lightly, angrily said.

"It's clear that you are trying to be frivolous, so why is it my fault." Mu Luoluo laughed.

"I..." Su Qingwan was about to reply, but saw Hu Po lift the curtain and Ruan Jieyu walked in.

"Just now when I entered the door, I saw the two maids rushing out, their faces flushed red. I don't know what happened. Could it be that I was teased by Concubine Shu?" Good day."

"Sister Ruan, Ankang." Su Qingwan got up to return the salute, and Mu Luoluo got up to salute, "It's just a joke, who knows that maid is very thin-skinned."

"Madam Su's clothes today are so pretty." Princess He Hua poked her head out from behind Ruan Jieyu and smiled sweetly.

"He Hua's mouth is really getting more and more pleasing." Su Qingwan smiled and waved to He Hua, "Come, Madam Su has newly made golden silk candied dates for you to eat."

"Ms. Jieyu, don't sit outside, move to the Nuan Pavilion to have tea." Mu Luoluo said while calling a little maid from outside the house to serve her.

"That's right, I've been sitting here since I had breakfast." Su Qingwan smiled, and then led Hehua to the Nuan Pavilion, and turned her head to ask Ruan Jieyu, "Why did my sister come to my place? The family banquet at noon , isn’t sister going too?”

"Your Majesty invited all the ministers to a banquet today, and did not attend the family banquet, so he reported his illness to the empress and resigned from the banquet." Ruan Jieyu replied, "Today's family banquet can also be regarded as the practice of Princess Li. I have never had any contact with the princess. , it’s no fun to go.”

"How is Shu Cairen?" Su Qingwan asked the little maid to bring some more cakes that He Hua loved, and then asked casually.

"Naturally, I was in a hurry. After the restraint was lifted, Zhang Yang stopped a lot within a few days, and then frequently interacted with other younger sisters." Ruan Jieyu smiled, took the tea from Mu Luoluo's hand, and nodded in gratitude.

"If you want to come to the sisters in the palace, there are not many sisters who are willing to associate with the Shu family. Her plan may not work." Su Qingwan propped her head on one hand, and smiled as she watched He Hua playing on her own.

"Who says no? Who in the palace is not careful to avoid her. If her body slips up, no one can afford it." Ruan Jieyu put down the teacup, leaned slightly towards Su Qingwan, and said in a low voice, "In the past few days... , the pigeons in the harem must fly too frequently."

"It's better if you work hard. The more this is the case, the more it will make her slump." Su Qingwan chuckled, "Now there is a lack of an opportunity. If she can come to the door by herself, it will save a lot of trouble."

Mu Luoluo stood aside, listening to the two of them playing charades, and couldn't guess what Su Qingwan had done for a while.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Dining Room has delivered rice balls." Jin Qing lightly knocked on the door frame outside the curtain.

"Bring it in." Su Qingwan raised her voice, and then said to He Hua with a smile, "Let Miss Su see how He Hua's accuracy is."

"The hand crossbow is small, but it is sharp after all. The princess must handle it carefully." When Jin Qing handed the hand crossbow to Princess Hehua, Mu Luoluo reminded.

Princess Hehua nodded, put on the crossbow, and pulled the trigger, and saw the short crossbow flying past the edge of the powder, and landed on the ground, Princess Hehua looked disappointed.

At the same time as she was forming a cluster with Princess Hua, Su Qingwan also took another crossbow from Mu Luoluo's hand, and made a cluster with a little consideration.The short cluster breaks through the air and hits the powder.

"Miss Su is so amazing." He Hua's eyes were full of envy.

"It's okay, Hehua is still young, just practice with me." Su Qingwan raised her hand to touch Princess Hehua's bun, comforting her.

"Your Madam Su came from Jiangmen, and she has been practicing since she was a child. Naturally, she is much better than Hehua." Ruan Jieyu took a sip of tea, "So Hehua can't relax, and he should listen to the master's orders on weekdays."

"He Huacai don't listen to the master's orders. The master is very partial and only likes the fourth brother." He Hua pouted his lips and looked at the hand in his hand. "Only the third brother is willing to teach me."

"The third prince and the fourth prince are following the same martial arts master now?" Su Qingwan took the short cluster that hit the powder ball from Jin Qing's hand, and asked casually.

"Originally it wasn't, it was the concubine Xian who saw that the fourth prince's martial arts master was very good, so she went to ask the emperor." Ruan Jieyu gave Su Qingwan a meaningful look, "The master is not partial, but I really can't afford to offend him."

"In this way, the martial arts master is very kind." Su Qingwan took a bite of the dough ball, it was very sweet, and she couldn't help frowning "Next year, I will simply order the imperial dining room not to send the dough balls, and only send glutinous rice flour to Shangqing Palace to make by myself That's all."

"Obviously it's your mouth, but you want to say that the imperial dining room is not." Mu Luoluo laughed, and then habitually reached out, wanting to take the noodle ball that Su Qingwan was about to discard.

"I shot it myself. If you want to eat it, you can shoot it with your hand." Su Qingwan dodged sideways, winked playfully, and picked up the whole dough ball.

Mu Luo paused for a moment, then slowly put down her empty hand, and approached Su Qingwan slowly.

Seeing this, Ruan Jieyu took a step forward and stood beside Princess Hehua, covering the two of them with her body: "If Hehua wants to shoot a ball of powder, first of all, hold your crossbow steady..."

"What do you want to do?" Su Qingwan held the powder ball in her mouth, looked warily at Mu Luoluo who approached her with a smile, and backed away involuntarily.

"I think..." Mu Luoluo said unhurriedly, but her feet suddenly accelerated, and she directly threw Su Qingwan down on the couch, without giving Su Qingwan any chance to react, she went directly to grab the powder.

"Hmm..." Su Qingwan was pinned down by Mu Luoluo and couldn't move, and she didn't have time to put the dough into her mouth, so she had to let Mu Luoluo snatch it away.

"Bandit!" Su Qingwan waited for Mu Luoluo to let go, and gave Mu Luoluo a half-angry, half-angry look.

Looking at Su Qingwan's flushed cheeks, Mu Luoluo couldn't help but smile slightly, then lowered her head and touched the corner of Su Qingwan's mouth lightly.

The aihu on the lintel outside the window is swaying with the wind, the faint fragrance of aiwort and japonica rice are intertwined and mixed, and the magpies are jumping and jumping on the branches, which is a scene of late spring.
