Xing Xiuyan's Life in the Red Mansion

The noodles were served, Yun Qingran was a little surprised when he saw that three bowls of noodles were served, and he had his own portion, just in time to see Xing Xiuyan approaching, he asked with a smile: "Where is my portion?"

Xing Xiuyan smiled and said: "The two of them can't eat that much, so you can eat some too." Then he looked at Zhao Mingli with some embarrassment, wondering if he should find a maid to feed him, Yun Qingran smiled, " No, he can eat by himself. Right, Li'er?"

Zhao Mingli nodded, "I can." Then he took the chopsticks and started to eat.

Xing Xiuyan originally planned to feed Murong Ling, but when Murong Ling saw that Zhao Mingli was eating by himself, he thought about it and said to Xing Xiuyan, "Sister, I will also eat by myself."

Xing Xiuyan was a little hesitant, but it was more of a surprise. In the previous life, many children were fed until they were seven or eight years old. Ling'er was only about four years old. Feeding is normal, and Ling'er is already very good, at least you don't need to hold the bowl Follow him and chase after him.But today Ling'er took the initiative to ask her to eat, Xing Xiuyan was both surprised and delighted, "Can you do it yourself? Ling'er is awesome!" It seems that spending more time with people of the same age is beneficial, and it will make people grow up.

Yuping hesitated, "Miss Xing, is this okay? The son is too young, let the servants feed him!"

Xing Xiuyan shook her head, "It's okay. Let him eat by himself, but he needs to change his clothes later. It's time for him to do it himself."

Murong Ling held the chopsticks clumsily, and couldn't pick them up after a long time. He was a little annoyed, especially when he saw Zhao Mingli eating the noodles skillfully, he was even more frustrated.Xing Xiuyan pursed his lips and smiled. It was the first time he used chopsticks, so naturally he couldn't eat.

Seeing this, Zhao Mingli put down the chopsticks, "Brother Ling'er, come on, brother will teach you how to use them." Then he taught Murong Ling how to use the chopsticks.

With Zhao Mingli's help, Murong Ling was finally able to eat noodles with chopsticks. The first bite of noodles was in his mouth, and Murong Ling smiled happily, "Sister, look, I can eat by myself."

Xing Xiuyan looked at him approvingly, nodded, "Ling'er is awesome, Ling'er can eat by himself, really amazing!"

Murong Ling was encouraged to eat more vigorously.Xing Xiuyan had an encouraging face, but Yun Qingran, Yuping and the others couldn't bear to look directly at them. Yun Qingran looked at Xing Xiuyan's indifferent face and said, "Is this really good? Li'er only started after the age of six." I ate by myself. Is Ling'er too young?"

Xing Xiuyan smiled and said: "Actually, if Ling'er hadn't been frightened and couldn't act too hastily, I would have let him eat by himself a long time ago. This can exercise his hands-on ability and satisfy his interest in learning and experimenting. Now, he is actively asking I'm really happy to eat by myself. Look, doesn't he eat very well?"

It was quite good to eat, only one-third of it was eaten in the mouth, and the remaining two-thirds, half fell on the table, half fell on the body, and the table was full of soup and meat.Yun Qingran thought, what a shame that Li'er really looks like an older brother, not only did he not dislike him, but he often encouraged him, "Ling'er is awesome, he is a little man."

Xing Xiuyan also said quietly: "The prince's tutor is really good, this one looks like an older brother. I thought he would find it dirty."

Yun Qingran didn't speak, but just smiled, she didn't care about the prince's cousin, Li'er was taught so well, it was all thanks to the prince's concubine.However, this is nothing to envy, Yun Qingran thought, my future children will definitely do better than Li Er.Because he also has a sensible mother.Yun Qingran raised his eyes and glanced at Xing Xiuyan, and Xing Xiuyan happened to look over, the two of them looked at each other, Xing Xiuyan was stunned, quickly looked away, and at the same time looked down at himself, could it be that when the noodles were cooked just now, they were dirty? face?Shouldn't it?If it gets dirty, they will remind themselves.But why did Lord Hou look at him with such strange eyes!

Seeing Xing Xiuyan's incomprehensible style, Yun Qingran was both helpless and funny.Forget it, she hasn't gotten the hang of it yet, don't worry, take your time!

The prince and princess came here happily, but when they went back, they were both depressed. Zhao Yuan was because of what the eldest princess said, and the princess was because of Zhao Yuan's bad mood. She didn't behave very well. Happy, while Zhao Mingli is because of his reluctance to Murong Ling.It was rare for him to meet a younger brother who was more like a younger brother than his own brother. The key point was that this younger brother was very well-behaved and listened to him very much, which made Zhao Mingli feel like an older brother.He is very reluctant.

"Father, brother Ling'er, when can I enter the palace to study?" Zhao Mingli thought for a while before asking.

"What? Do you like Ling'er very much?" Zhao Yuan asked casually.

"Well, I like it! I like Ling'er very much." Zhao Mingli said without thinking.

"I like it more than Liang'er?" Zhao Yuan glanced at him and asked.The Crown Princess glanced at him nervously, then looked at Zhao Mingli again, for fear that he might have said something wrong.

"It's different. Brother Ling'er has a poor background. As an elder brother, Erchen should take good care of him. Besides, he is cute and cute. He is only four years old, and he has learned to eat by himself. Unlike Liang'er, who was spoiled by his mother and concubine Don’t listen to me, and always like to fight against me.” No matter how precocious Zhao Mingli is, he is still a child after all. The prince and princess have protected the East Palace very well. Said.

"Liang'er doesn't listen to you, it's because you are not good enough to convince Liang'er of you. This is your shortcoming! You have to keep working hard." Zhao Yuan said.

"My father said that you should conquer people with virtue? But every time I reasoned with Liang'er, he always refused to listen. After all, it is my brother, and he can't fight, what can I do? The nuns always say that Liang'er is still Younger, it will be fine when he grows up. But brother Ling'er is one year younger than Liang'er, he is very obedient. He does what I say, this is what a younger brother should be! Father, I am very obedient. I like brother Ling'er, when will he be able to enter the palace to study?" Zhao Mingli continued to ask.

Zhao Yuan was stunned. In this case, what should he say and how should he do it?He didn't know, he looked at the princess, who smiled and said, "Liang'er is indeed a bit naughty, but he didn't mean it, Li'er studies and does homework all day, no one plays with him, he also wants to get attention There are still too few children in the East Palace, and Yaoer lives in the mother's harem all year round, so he gets along with his brothers even less. The other children are still too young to play with Lianger. Maybe Linger entered After entering the palace, with playmates and comparisons, it might be much better."

Zhao Yuan thinks about it too. When he was a child, his father was just a prince. They lived outside the palace. He still had a lot of playmates. The relationship between cousins ​​and cousins ​​was pretty good, and they often fled together. Play around.But now, his father has become the emperor, and he is the prince. The whole family lives in the palace. The palace is so dirty. There are many princes and daughters who die every year.I dare not, and I am not at ease, let the child have more contact with his nephews.

"Let me ask Qingran later!" Zhao Yuan said, and then remembered something, "In the future, you and that Xing family should walk around more! If she is not thoughtful, you can help Zhou Quan Some. Since Aunt and Qingran have recognized her, it is useless to talk more."

The Crown Princess nodded, "It's a pity Qian'er, since the farewell to Wanshan Temple three years ago, she has never forgotten Qingran!"

"Hurry up and ask the family to make an appointment for her, don't delay any more. A twisted melon is not sweet! If she is a sensible person, she will naturally know that with you and me, no matter who she marries into, she will not have a hard time. If she is a fool, it's not worth your troubles." Zhao Yuan said nonchalantly, at the beginning he had this thought, on the one hand, it was because the two families were well-matched, and on the other hand, it was also because Qian'er had a good relationship with Qingran. thought.But, since Qingran doesn't have such thoughts, forget it.He wanted to be married to the Yongping Hou Mansion, not to be an enemy.

"Yes, I understand. After returning to the palace, let someone go back and pass on the message. How about His Highness choose one for Qian'er!" The princess thought for a while and said.

Zhao Yuan pondered for a while, then nodded, "That's fine, how about this, tell me, what kind of Qian'er do you like? Civil and military? Or both civil and military?"

The Crown Princess thought about Yun Qingran, and said: "Your Highness, why don't you choose one of the new imperial examinations? Qian'er has liked reciting poems, composing poems and songs since she was a child, so choose someone who shares the same language as her! "

Zhao Yuan nodded, "Okay, I will write it down."

After the crown prince and his party left, Yun Qingran and Xing Xiuyan chatted and laughed with the eldest princess and Murong Ling, the eldest princess suddenly remembered, and asked, "You are going to Jia's house this time, what's the news about Jia's house?"

Xing Xiuyan thought for a while and said: "The Jia family said to the outside world that a woman in the Changcui Temple was infected with the disease, so they had to remove everyone in the Changcui Temple. I tentatively asked if I could go and see her." , was rejected by the Jia family."

The eldest princess smiled disdainfully, "Is the Jia family still watching?"

Xing Xiuyan didn't quite understand, "What does the eldest princess mean? What is the Jia family watching?"

Since the Eldest Princess appointed her as her daughter-in-law by default, she naturally did not hesitate to teach him, "If the Jia family has given up their minds, they will directly announce that Miaoyu is dead, and quickly separate the relationship. But the Jia family only announced that Miaoyu was sick, which shows that The Jia family is still watching."

Xing Xiuyan seemed to understand, but Murong Ling threw herself on Xing Xiuyan's lap, and handed over a flower that she picked, "Sister, flower!"

Xing Xiuyan immediately put these questions to the back of her mind, happily hugged Murong Ling on her lap, and kissed, "Thank you Ling'er, Ling'er is so good." Murong Ling was encouraged, and happily slid off Xing Xiuyan's lap , turned around and ran to pick the flowers.

The eldest princess smiled and said, "This child, at such a young age, can make girls happy. How can he do it when he grows up!"

Xing Xiuyan remembered what Murong Ling said in the palace, and smiled, "I'm not sure, his wish to marry ten wives can really come true!"

The author has something to say: My little nephew got an extra nickname yesterday, Gulu Gulu.Because he has been gurgling non-stop for the past few days.Are children nowadays very smart? I remember when my daughter was a child, too.The 14-month-old baby walks around the house like a penguin with a bee-proof pillow on his back, and keeps purring.Sometimes I was worried that he would fall, so I would call him, "Gulu Gulu, come here." He would walk towards you crookedly.When I went down yesterday, he passed my room with my lotus leaf tea in his hand, and I called him, "Gulu Gulu, give the things in your hand to Auntie." Am I this, I said, "Yes, this is it." Then he walked over crookedly and gave me the lotus leaf tea.Don't even say a word, so smart!
