An old lady's life

Jia Min didn't stay at her mother's house for long this time, and soon returned to Lin's house. Unfortunately, as soon as she stepped into the gate, she heard the voice of a child talking in the front hall.It wasn't Xiaohui Xiaoan's voice, Jia Min could still hear the voices of the two children.

Listening carefully, it turned out to be Xiao Yuanlong's voice.

Today, Dr. Jiang brought his grandson to Lin's house to express his thanks. Ai Cao received Dr. Jiang and Hou Yuanlong, and also asked about Xiao Yuanlong's current situation.

Xiao Yuanlong is now living at his grandfather's house. Dr. Jiang is determined to keep his grandson by his side except during festivals and festivals, and teach him his homework well. After giving birth, he can rest assured.

Ai Cao saw that Dr. Jiang was still worrying about his grandson at a very old age, and she felt a little pity in her heart. She didn't dare to tell him about Jiang's incident, for fear that the old man couldn't stand the stimulation any longer, what should he do if his foot collapsed?

Xiao Yuanlong was very close to wormwood, he looked up at the old lady, "Old lady, can I go to Zhuangzi to find Brother Zhou and Sister Xiaoqi?"

Dr. Jiang stroked his beard. When he was resting, he could take his grandson to the countryside for a walk to see the lives of ordinary people. The grandson really lacks friends of the same age.

The Jiang family is Dr. Jiang's old daughter, and Dr. Jiang's grandson is many years older than his grandson. Cousins ​​treat Hou Yuanlong like an adult treats a child.

Ai Cao nodded: "Of course, the children in the village are also studying, so you can study together in the future."

Xiao Yuanlong grinned extremely cheerfully, he was already thinking about when he would go to the village, it was almost Chinese New Year, he would go there once a year ago, last time he wore Xiaoxi's clothes, he wanted to return him a new set of clothes.

Dr. Jiang's grandfather and grandson did not stay at Lin's house, and left after half an hour.

Back at Huifang Courtyard, Jia Min replied to Ai Cao, "Mother, my mother said she already knew about it, but it will take some time, and I will contact you in the next year."

Ai Cao snickered, could she use this to get in touch with Hongye in the future?But what topics can be discussed in correspondence?Still can't seem to communicate normally.

Ai Cao kept thinking about this issue, and at night Lin Hai and Jia Min accompanied her after dinner, and she sent them away.

On the way back to the main courtyard, Lin Hai still asked Jia Min suspiciously, "Min'er, what did mother do today? It seems that mother is not in a good mood."

Jia Min was also blank-eyed, and had been doing well during the day, "No, mother didn't do anything, it may be because the weather is cold, and mother wants to go to bed early."

Accustomed to communicating with his mother about the outside world, Lin Hai also planned to tell his mother about his recent adventure with Lou Weiwei.

Ai Cao felt that she had a restless heart. She had only stayed at home for a while recently, and she felt a little bored again, and she always wanted to go outside.

However, it is cold and snowy in winter, so it is always inconvenient to travel, but she can go shopping, which is every woman's hobby, even if she becomes an old lady in ancient times, this kind of fun does not diminish at all.

Just do what you say, after lunch break, Ai Cao ordered the servants to set up the carriage, leaving Jia Min to stay at home, and she got into the carriage with three maids.

In fact, if it wasn't for Jia Min's filial piety and keeping a low profile, she would like to take her daughter-in-law shopping.

When was the last time you went shopping?Before the Kidnap Incident, I was very excited about that time, but unfortunately, the weather was not good. As soon as I walked on the street of Liulifang, it started to rain. Although the rain in winter is not heavy, it is thin and thin. I couldn't stand the cold, so I could only go back home dejectedly.

It's sunny today, so it won't rain.

Liulifang is an entire street, full of many imported items, bright glass products, music boxes, etc. Ai Cao took her maid to visit two shops, looking at a small mirror, it cost 500 taels of silver, Ai Cao Cao is tired of this, if she knew she was going to time travel, she should have memorized the glass formula, so that she could earn money from foreigners.

I don't know if Hongye knows?Find an opportunity to ask Hongye in the future!

Lianhua, who once again sensed Ai Cao's thoughts, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, my dear girl, I have a book here, I don't know when you will find out that we communicate with each other in space.

Skipping those heart-stopping places, Ai Cao still felt quite happy during the shopping trip. The three maids were a little worried at first, but as the old lady bought more gadgets, they also aroused their shopping desire .

After putting the bought things into the carriage and leaving the coachman to guard, Ai Cao took the maid into the teahouse to listen to storytelling.

The location on the second floor is well lit and overlooks the entire first floor. On the stage in the lobby on the first floor, the storyteller was spitting and passionate, and many people applauded.

Ai Cao listened to it for a while before remembering that the storyteller told the story of a great general who fought bravely against the enemy in the previous dynasty. Death is admirable!

The three servant girls were very excited when they heard it, and they were excited and indignant at what happened to the characters.

While talking and joking with the three maids, Ai Cao saw a few people coming up from the stairs on the second floor. She knew the young man in the lead.

Isn't that the Seventh Prince? The fat, ten-year-old kid beside him looks so arrogant, so he must be the Seventh Prince's brother.

The Seventh Prince had a rare holiday today. He planned to take a look around, play and relax, but his father gave him the tenth brother. He had to take the tenth brother with him, and he didn't dare to go to remote places. Just take a look at the lively places in central Beijing.

Seeing the seventh prince walking this way, Ai Cao quickly waved her hands. Seeing this, the maids followed the old lady's line of sight, and the three immediately got up and stood behind Ai Cao.

If someone is watching, you will definitely feel it. The Seventh Prince looked back in the sensed direction, and immediately saw Mrs. Lin greeting him from a distance.

The Seventh Prince stopped, then took the hand of the Tenth Prince, and walked towards Ai Cao.

Ai Cao took a look at the seventh prince, then at the child who was pouting and looking unhappy, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, is the seventh son taking his younger brother out to play?"

The Seventh Prince bowed slightly, and the Tenth Prince followed him when he saw this. No matter how proud he is of being a prince, the Tenth Prince still understands the basic etiquette, and before leaving the palace, his father told him to listen to Seventh Brother's words Otherwise, he will not be allowed to come out to play again in the future.

"Madam, this is my tenth brother."

Ai Cao smiled brightly, "I see, the seventh son is sitting with the tenth son, it is fate to meet each other, the old lady invites you to drink tea today!"

The tenth prince's eyes lit up, "Then can I eat rose cake?" His mother and concubine didn't let him eat more in the palace, so he just ate his fill outside the palace!

The corner of the Seventh Prince's mouth twitched, Ai Cao couldn't help laughing, and looked at the Seventh Prince and the entourage following them, "You can eat it, but I have to ask your seventh brother and the people who serve you, can you eat more, in case The old lady doesn't want to be held accountable by your father if she gets upset after eating."

A follower from behind replied: "Returning to the old lady, the reason why the little master is restricted from eating rose cakes at home is because the doctor told the master to eat less sweets, otherwise it will be bad for the teeth."

The Seventh Prince coughed and asked: "The tenth younger brother can eat a plate of rose cake today, too much can't be done."

The Tenth Prince wrinkled his chubby face and nodded reluctantly.

Summoning Xiaoer to order tea and pastries, Ai Cao sat at a table with the Seventh and Tenth Princes, and the attendants rounded up the table next to them, and pulled them closer.

The seventh prince is a man of few words, but the tenth prince is a chatterbox. Ai Cao chatted happily with the tenth prince. The tenth prince is very happy that someone can answer his words. After all, even the father and mother disapprove of him climbing trees , swinging, but the old lady agreed with him, and said that children should play naughty to their heart's content, and they don't want to play when they grow up.

Seeing the mischievous appearance of the tenth prince, Ai Cao thought that the emperor might be a little troubled, and seeing the indifferent and reserved appearance of the seventh prince, Ai Cao couldn't help but said: "Children who can cry have sweets. Seventh prince, don't be too concerned." Too reserved, if you have any request, you should ask your father, otherwise you don't tell your father and you don't know what you think, it would be great to learn from the ten sons."

The tenth prince grinned: "Yes, yes, every time I ask my father for something, although my father is stern, he will still agree to me."

The Seventh Prince's face was a little embarrassed. He thought that when he grew up, he could decide some things by himself and didn't want to bother his father.

The old and the young got along happily, and a few more people came up on the second floor. Ai Cao's eyes lit up when she saw it, and she quickly waved, "Handsome Lou."

Lou Gao, who was deeply impressed by the word "handsome boy", immediately looked towards the source of the voice, Yu Yang and Shang Yong also looked over, and Ai Cao called out one by one, "Handsome Yu, handsome boy Shang."

Lou Gao and the others were in an embarrassing mood. The Seventh Prince and the Tenth Prince turned their heads to see that the Seventh Prince was alright, but the Tenth Prince, a poor boy, was a little frightened at once. Isn’t that the evil gods around the father?

"Come here, handsome guys, meeting by chance is worse than meeting each other, the old lady invites you to drink tea!" Ai Cao said proudly.

Qingyao, Qingzhi, Qingqian and the people around the seventh and tenth prince all admired the old lady's ability. Can anyone in the imperial guards around the emperor talk to anyone?

The tenth prince was sitting on pins and needles, Ai Cao saw his chubby face tangled up, raised her eyebrows and smiled and said: "Little fat man, you are not afraid of them, are you?"

The tenth prince straightened his chest immediately, and ignored the address the old lady called him, "Who? How is it possible? How could I be afraid of them!" He is afraid, but as a prince, he is proud and must not be cowardly!

Lou Gao, Yu Yang, Shang Yong, and the three who came over silently complained in their hearts. They have special occupations, but there are really few people who are not afraid of them. When the ten princes saw them in the palace, they would definitely walk around. This is not afraid What are they?

Keeping their facial expressions unchanged, Lou Gao and the others bowed their hands to the Seventh and Tenth Princes. Ai Cao glanced at the stools around and asked the attendants to bring three stools from other vacant tables.

The seventh prince thought silently, how did the old lady know the imperial father's guard?

Ordering Xiaoer to serve tea and pastries, Ai Cao saw that Lou Gao and the others were sitting upright, with no expression on his face, she couldn't help laughing: "I said three handsome guys, you don't have to carry them like this, the old lady is quite old, I can't stand your aggressive aura."

The Seventh Prince observed silently to see how Lou Gao and the others communicated with the old lady.

Lou Gao and the three were a little embarrassed, and almost said in unison: "Old lady, thank you!"

"Puchi~ Do you want to have such a tacit understanding?" Ai Cao couldn't help laughing, and everyone present couldn't hold back, and the faces of Lou Gao and the three were embarrassed again.

Lou Gao and the other three were as reserved as the Seventh Prince. Ai Cao didn't ask any court secrets, but just asked about private matters. Soon Ai Cao knew that the Lou Gao and the three were not married. When Ai Cao mentioned this question, the expressions of the Lou Gao and the three were still A little shy, really a rare expression.

But when it comes to shy things like marriage, the tenth prince, who has been unable to get in the way, interrupted suddenly: "Want to marry a wife? I want to marry a beautiful wife in the future, not beautiful."

Before Ai Cao answered, the tenth prince muttered again: "I heard my father talking to Concubine Hui, saying that he wanted to find a wife for Seventh Brother."

Okay, now everyone's eyes fell on the Seventh Prince, and the Seventh Prince was a little embarrassed, but he was happy in his heart. It turned out that the father was considering his marriage.

"It's a pity, Father doesn't know what kind of wife to find for Seventh Brother, and asked Huimu Concubine to help look at the candidate."

Ai Cao looked at the seventh prince, "Of course a father should betroth his son, but the seventh son should explain it to his father. Don't tell me your father doesn't know what you like. How nice it is to be like a little fat man. Find someone A beautiful and capable daughter-in-law is every man's dream."

The three of Lou Gao looked at the seventh prince with piercing eyes, and stayed by the emperor's side for a long time. The three of Lou Gao knew that the emperor had some entanglements with the seventh prince.

"Like you like girls with melon-shaped faces, your father appointed you a daughter-in-law with a round face, and you can only make do with her for the rest of your life. What a terrible day that will be."

The tenth prince nodded heavily: "Yes, a daughter-in-law needs to be beautiful and have a good figure. If she has a round face, she must be very tall." The tenth prince pointed at Qing Yao behind Ai Cao with a small finger, "This maid is so talented. nice."

The Seventh Prince's face was full of black lines, Lou Gao and the others laughed silently in their hearts.

Ai Cao snickered, "But Qi Gongzi and Xiaopangzi are still young, handsome Lou, you have to hurry up, you are about the same size as my son, when my grandchildren are born, and you have another child, maybe we can be in-laws in the future. "

The tenth prince immediately said loudly: "What about me? What about me? We can also be in-laws!"

Everyone's faces were covered with black lines, and Ai Cao shook her head and nodded again: "You are only ten years old, but it's okay, as long as I, an old lady, inspect it, and those who are not suitable cannot be matched."
