At the end of the year, Xiao Yuqi married Miss Jiang's family, and it was very lively, but after all, it was not as good as Xiao Yuheng.

And Xiao Jinlan's day was set before the first month.

Although it is not a formal marriage, but she is a side concubine after all, and she can also be on the royal jade plate, so the Liang Palace attaches great importance to it.

Even if he didn't want to, under the imperial gift, the Yongning Hou Mansion could only happily prepare for Xiao Jinlan's marriage.

"Second Miss, Aunt Mei is here."

The night before, Mrs. Liu was supposed to teach the etiquette of husband and wife, but since the matter was settled, Mrs. Mei was so picky and provocative, Mrs. Liu was happy not to intervene, so she didn't bother to come.

Xiao Jinlan looked away from the spread dress, and Mei Shi also entered the room, the maid bowed and left the mother and daughter talking.

"It's really beautiful. Look at this embroidery, it's as vivid as the real thing. The prince has put so much effort into it. The second lady will definitely make the prince unable to take his eyes off it."

Mei Shi saw the auspicious clothes at a glance, her eyes sparkled, and her white and beautiful hands stroked the clear textured embroidered pattern, full of joy.

Xiao Jinlan raised the corner of her mouth when she heard the words, revealing a self-deprecating arc, beautiful is really beautiful, but it is rose red.

Aunt Mei glanced at her, then sighed suddenly, and pulled Xiao Jinlan to sit down on the bed.

There was no one around, and Aunt Mei no longer held back some words.

"Mother knows, you are not happy, who doesn't want to wear a bright red wedding dress to pay homage to marriage in an upright manner, but mother is not up to date, and you are inferior to following mother, otherwise, with Lan'er's appearance, why not marry a good family and become the wife of the house. "Speaking of this, Aunt Mei showed a sarcasm smile, and said disdainfully, "It's not that you haven't met your father before, but what you have met is either a dilapidated house with a beautiful appearance and an empty interior, or a poor man who can read a few words from a grassroots birth. Is it possible? Want you to fill in the dowry for him? When he becomes famous, you will become a yellow-faced woman. Once such a person enters high school, he will definitely buy a concubine or a maidservant, and my mother will never agree to it."

After Aunt Mei finished her sarcasm, seeing Xiao Jinlan remained silent and indifferent, she could only hold her hand and sigh again, "Mother knows what you are thinking. The old lady mentioned it earlier, but Mother did not agree, but she did not expect that that sick child... ..." Seeing Xiao Jinlan frowned, Aunt Mei changed her address, "Young Master Biao is pretty good now, the future is a matter of time, the family has property, and there are no parents-in-law to wait on him, and he is your father's nephew, kiss him Jiaqian, the best thing..."

"What's the use of Auntie talking about this now?" Xiao Jinlan asked suddenly.

Aunt Mei choked for a moment, held her daughter's hand tightly, and said in a low voice: "Daughter, no matter how good you are, how can you compare to the royal family? , the imperial concubine is the most important in the palace, and the king of Liang is also the leader. He has always had a better reputation than the king of Shu. If you marry the king of Liang, if you have another son, do you still worry about your future? Besides, your fourth uncle is the military commander of the five cities Commander, your eldest brother-in-law is the marshal in charge of the Northwest Army, how could the King of Liang not value you? As for Young Master Biao... forget it, if he has feelings for you, it’s nothing more than wishful thinking.”

The last sentence made Xiao Jinlan's eyes darken immediately.

"Furthermore, you also know that he may not be able to get well in the future. How many people will have a good death when they oppose the prince? Think about it carefully, mother is always for your own good."

Xiao Jinlan didn't say anything anymore. Once upon a time, she was still dissatisfied with Mrs. Tai's hot-headed arrangement at that time, and she was very picky about Lin Xi, always thinking that only a noble and heroic person like Prince Rui was worthy of her.But I don't know when it was, but I couldn't take my eyes off. Lin Xi's gentle and calm attitude became more and more pleasing to the eye, and she looked forward to Madam Tai's matchmaking again.

But all this is just wishful thinking.

Now the life in the prince's mansion that I once longed for is about to begin, and it is not only the prince's mansion, but also the prince's mansion, maybe there will be a palace in the future.

Xiao Jinlan's hand was tightly clenched at some point, only when she felt the pain, she regained her senses and let it go slowly, as if she was slowly untying the knot in her heart.

"Mother, I understand." She said softly, then firmly.

Aunt Mei immediately beamed with joy, "My dear daughter, that's how it should be. Don't worry, you will never live better than Xiao Jinxin in the future. Just wait, wait for the day when they kowtow to you."

After Xiao Jinlan entered Prince Liang's Mansion, it was the Spring Festival.

The college had long been closed, the court had dismissed the court, and the carriage of the Hou Mansion had also stopped at the gate of the Bai Mansion early, waiting to pick up Young Master Biao to go back for the New Year.

Old Mr. Bai directly rejected Lin Xi's invitation. Sitting alone on the porch, he watched the little apprentice get into the carriage of the Hou Mansion and leave. He couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness.

"This one can't go back to Beijing, and the other one goes back home, leaving this old man alone, really heartless." Mr. Bai looked at the piles of snow, and his heart was so sad that he couldn't express it. Drinking a cup of hot tea couldn't warm the bitter cold in his heart.

However, after an hour, she didn't want to turn around, Lin Xi turned back again, and bowed her hands to old Mr. Bai with a smile.

"I knew that you would not go to the Baifu in the east of the city honestly. If the senior brother is not here, how can the students leave you and go alone."

Mr. Bai looked at the little apprentice standing in the courtyard, tall and straight like a green pine, with a white cloak facing the pure white snow and smiling at himself, suddenly his nose was sore, he muttered and couldn't speak, but his heart was gurgling like boiling water overflowing.

After a long time, he turned his face and said: "It's not enough to worry about it for half a year, and it's the New Year's Eve and you still don't want to leave. How can you be a student like you."

Just keep your mouth shut and think you can't see your red eyes when you turn your face sideways?Lin Xi cursed in her heart.

But you still have to persuade me, old boy.

"It's the students who are reluctant, and ask the teacher to take me in for the New Year, but don't drive me out."

It was really cold outside, Lin Xi walked into the corridor as he said that, Zhou's mother and the two girls quickly helped him dust off the snow, and a warm stove was stuffed into his hand.

Mr. Bai glanced at him, muttered, "Only one is at ease." Then he turned around and entered the room.

This little apprentice's body is not as good as his, and he is very afraid of the cold. The snow scene under the porch is nice, but it is also windy and cold.

The old man had to be coaxed, Lin Xi frowned and followed quickly.

"Over there at the Hou Mansion..."

"I have already reported to my grandma. Her old man told me not to go back in a hurry. I can just go to New Year's greetings in the first month."

Old Mr. Bai nodded, and the expression on his face suddenly relaxed.

Everyone in the White House was also extremely happy. In the past, it was quiet and cold, but now that Young Master Lin was here, it became lively.

As for the big disciple, Mr. Bai now has a little disciple in everything, so he no longer counts on it.

Fortunately, the day before New Year's Eve, the angel sent by the court to reward came back.

On that day, Eunuch Cao from Prince Rui's Mansion arrived at the White Mansion, and there were several carts full of New Year gifts following him.

"This is just a wish from the prince. The earthenware and mountain goods from over there were just delivered today. Give the old man and Mr. Lin a fresh taste, and add something to the Chinese New Year."

Eunuch Cao saluted Mr. Bai with great respect, and said apologetically, "My lord made a special confession. He felt really guilty and uneasy after not being filial in front of Mr. Bai for a long time. When the border is stabilized, Mr. Bai will be punished when he comes back. This time, I found two A hundred-year-old ginseng, I specially honor your old man."

Speaking of sending Zhao Jingyi's letter.

"Loyalty and filial piety cannot be fulfilled in a family and a country. It doesn't have to be like this." Although the old Mr. Bai didn't say anything, he still missed his apprentice the most in his heart, but now he settled down and accepted the letter.

Then Eunuch Cao deepened the smile on his face, squinted his small eyes and looked at Lin Xi cheerfully, "Mr. Lin, my lord is very happy these days. The telescope you made is very helpful. My lord said that only You miss him in your heart, think of him at all times, and you have done your filial piety for him in front of the old gentleman, he is very relieved, and specially ordered that from now on you will be him, and everyone in Prince Rui's residence will listen to you."

No matter how calm she was, Lin Xi couldn't help but sneak a glance at the old Mr. Bai. Seeing that the teacher didn't seem to notice, she gave Eunuch Cao a look, and the latter laughed even more blindly.

I could only bite the bullet and say, "Senior brother, I'm overwhelmed."

It was hard to let go, and Eunuch Cao was also happy for his prince, "But the award is not the award. If you have an order, please give it directly."

As soon as the annual ceremony of Prince Rui's residence arrives, this year will also arrive.

As for the Marquis of Yongning, without Lin Xi and Zhao Yuanrong, it was just a symbolic exchange of favors, just sending someone to give a gift.

In the evening, Lin Xi used tea instead of wine to accompany Mr. Bai for a drink, and returned to her room after serving the old man to bed.

Under the night light, Lin Xi read Zhao Jingyi's letter, and found that once the high-ranking prince became affectionate, it would be quite shameless to talk about love.

What about "the mountains have trees and the trees have branches, and the heart is pleasing to the king, so I don't know", he is a rough man, can't understand it?

"Hold your hand and grow old together" has been used badly, can there be something new?

……

Lin Xi slandered, blushing and watching every word.

In two lifetimes, apart from his parents, there is finally such a person who puts him on the cusp of his heart, and it will be a matter of time before he falls.

At this time, recalling the first meeting that made his teeth itch with hatred, it seems that this person is not so hateful anymore.

When she woke up, the letter was still in her hand, there was a round sound at the door, Lin Xi hurriedly put the letter away before another person came in.

Wash and change clothes, today is New Year's Eve, we have to watch the year.

"Hey, where did this cloak come from?" Lin Xi asked puzzledly as she touched the smooth and soft snow-white cloak on her body, which was not like the previous one.

Yuanyuan said: "Yesterday, it was sent from Prince Rui's residence, and it was specified for you. The servant girl looked at it, but the ferret fur is of the best quality, only the fur around the neck is made of fire fox fur, or the fur of a small fox, which is soft and not brittle. Man, there is also a hat to go with it, the young master looks really good on it, is it warm?"

That must be warm!Lin Xi didn't speak anymore, just raised the corners of her mouth and bent her eyebrows.

"Young master, there is another small set, which is exactly the same. It must be for the prince. The prince really has a heart."

There are even parent-child clothes, Lin Xi reached out and touched it, and felt more and more soft.

"Keep it well, and put it on for Rong'er when he comes back."

The smile on Lin Xi's face didn't stop throughout the day. Old Mr. Bai's gaze circled around him, and he snorted a few times, losing interest in the little apprentice's silly smile.

On New Year's Eve, Zhao Yuanrong was unable to leave the palace to watch the new year with Lin Xi.

However, although there were many wars in the northwest, it still did not fall to an inch of land. In the grand banquet in the palace, Zhao Yuanrong's rewards were far more than those of other princes and grandchildren, even the Ninth Prince was also praised.

On the first day of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Xi returned to the Yongning Hou Mansion to pay New Year's greetings.

I heard that Xiao Jinlan was quite favored by the King of Liang when she entered the Prince Liang's Mansion, and on the second day of the first lunar month, she was released back to the Marquis' Mansion as if she were returning to the province.

When Lin Xi greeted Mrs. Tai, she took a look at her. She was full of emerald green eyes. She was wearing the gown of the side concubine. She was reserved and proud. The girl who always spoke in a soft voice became a stereotyped lady after all.

Later on, King Liang came to pick her up specially, and the men of Yongning Hou Mansion accompanied her for a drink.

After Xiao Jinlan left, within a few days, Aunt Mei complained of illness, and Mrs. Tai sent her to the Zhuangzi to recuperate.

And Zhao Yuanrong was finally allowed to leave the palace to come to his natal family. At this time, the Ninth Prince did not follow him.

Lin Xi specially waited at the gate of the palace, just like the parents of later generations standing outside the school gate waiting for their children after school.

This is a very common thing, but Zhao Yuanrong, who has been cautious in the palace, saw his cousin's familiar carriage, his eyes turned red like a baby bird returning to its nest, and tears flowed down patter, buried in the carriage. Lin Xi's arms.

The nephew and uncle still live in Lanyue Xuan.

Going to bed at night, just like before, Zhao Yuanrong, who hadn't slept with his cousin for a long time, was smiling in Lin Xi's arms, rolling around dishonestly with a smile on his face.

"Hurry up and sleep." Lin Xi couldn't bear it anymore, and patted his ass before she was willing to settle down.

Zhao Yuanrong held Lin Xi's arm tightly, and called softly, "Uncle?"

He opened his eyes and looked at Lin Xi vigorously. Even without candlelight, Lin Xi could still feel that gaze, which really made him helpless.

"And what?"

Zhao Yuanrong said in a low voice: "You just promise the father."

There was a moment of silence.

Zhao Yuanrong breathed lightly nervously, but before Lin Xi could reply, his mood could not help but slowly sink down.

However, just as he was closing his eyes and preparing to sleep, he heard a soft sound above his head, "I have already agreed."

On the night of New Year's Eve, fireworks were set off in the palace, the brilliance and beauty made people unable to take their eyes off, and now Zhao Yuanrong's heart was also thumping, and his heart was in full bloom!

He thinks this is the best New Year's gift this year.
