In autumn, the weather is cooler.

Picking a sunny day, Yuan Tao took the second princess and the little princess who had just completed the moon to the imperial garden to meet Su Youyi.

Su Youyi heard that Xiaojun mainly entered the park, and called it a pity, "It's a pity that he and his concubine took the little princess back to the palace, otherwise it would be so interesting to see the two of them play here together!" ”

Before she saw the little princess, she was very happy.

When Ji Yushen heard this, he only said lightly: "The little lord of the second prince has just reached the full moon, and he can't even turn over, how can he play?" ”

Su Youyi: "......"

It seems to be true.

"Then it's fun to wait until they're all older, and then they come to me to play."

Su Youyi seemed to have thought of the future scene, and Xia'er joked beside her: "Don't worry, the Queen Mother, children are growing up fast." Look at our eldest prince, you can see that you are climbing fast. Dan'er came out of the palace and replied that now the main hall of Kunning Palace is covered with thick wool blankets, which are for the eldest prince to climb. But the eldest prince crawled from one end to the other in a few swishs, which was not enough for him to play. ”

Su Youyi couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and as she was talking, she suddenly heard Duofu come in and say, "The Queen Mother, the second prince and the second princess, have come to greet you with the little princess." ”

"Come in, please."

Su Youyi sat down with a smile, and saw Yuan Tao and his wife come in, and the nurse behind her was holding a red swaddling cloth in her arms, which was the little county lord.

She took a closer look at the second princess, and saw that the Xue family was still a little plump after giving birth, and her body was thickly dressed, and her whole face was ruddy and full of joy.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother."

"Give me a seat."

Su Youyi smiled and said to the Xue family: "You are recovering quite well, do you want to come to the noble concubine to collect nourishing things everywhere and send them to you, and it is effective to eat?" ”

Xue smiled shyly, "There are too many things sent by the concubine, and I can't eat them at all." There are also those sent by the queen mother, the emperor and the queen...... It's no wonder that I didn't recover well after eating like this. ”

Su Youyi laughed when she heard this, and hurriedly beckoned to the nurse, "Quick, bring the little county lord to me and take a look." We were just saying that the concubine had already returned to the palace with the little princess, otherwise we should have asked her to meet the two little sisters. ”

Yuan Tao said: "It's okay, wait a few days for the princess to take her into the palace to see the imperial sister-in-law, and I want to see the little princess who can meet the concubine." The imperial sister-in-law also said that she wanted her to stay in the palace for a few more days, so that their brothers and sisters could have a good time. ”

"That makes sense."

Su Youyi said: "Well, now I see that there is another one in Concubine Min's belly, several of your brothers, including the eldest princess, are married on the front and back feet, and now they also have children on the front and back feet, the children are about the same age, and they will have more fun when they are older in the future." ”

Yuan Tao heard her unintentional words, but made a sad face and said: "The queen mother is right, if the brothers and sisters are close to each other, it is easy to play together." The queen mother looks, now it is me and the third brother who want to help the royal brother deal with the government affairs, and the little six and the seventh can follow the queen mother to play in the imperial garden, this is the difference. ”

Su Youyi was stunned, and suddenly realized that she had dug a pit for herself.

Yuan Tao is complaining to her about her hard work!

She wasn't fooled, "You should talk to the emperor about this, it's useless to talk to me." I don't care about the government now, the emperor is so big, you are so old, you are a father, do you want the queen mother to stand up for you? ”

"Erchen doesn't dare."

Yuan Tao said: "The princess gave birth, but the royal brother gave his son a few days off. Erchen just felt sorry for the third brother, and the third brother and Miss Sima were fine, but they were in a panic because of the affairs of the government. The third brother also told his son a few days ago that he wanted to ask Miss Sima to go for a walk in the maple forest outside the city, but he was not free. ”

The second princess listened for a while, and then interjected: "Can you believe all the words of the queen mother, a few days ago, Miss Sima came to visit me and the little county lord, and told me in person that the third brother invited her to go out of the city to enjoy the maple leaves, and she was invited several times, but she refused to go." The person who said that he had decided to have a family affair still went out to play in private, and it was difficult to guarantee that someone would say something unpleasant. ”

Su Youyi sneered.

It seems that Yuan Song is really interested in Miss Sima, and there are times when he invited a girl many times, but was refused.

Yuan Tao was exposed by the second princess, a little embarrassed, he pretended not to know, "Huh? Is that so? The third brother didn't make it clear to me, I thought he was just too busy to go! ”

Su Youyi hugged the little county lord Dou Lang while gossiping with them, and after a while, she asked them to take the children to the concubine and let the concubine take a good look.

Everyone in the garden knows that the noble concubine loves this granddaughter like an eyeball.

Sure enough, when Yuan Tao and his wife went over, they saw that the concubine was standing at the gate of the courtyard in person, and when they saw that they were busy hugging the little county lord.

There is no son and daughter-in-law in his eyes at all.

Yuan Tao and Xue: "......"

"Mother, you also look at us, why did you just look at your granddaughter?"

"Go, go, go."

The concubine said, "You go in and sit by yourself." I planted a small sapling in the yard two days ago, and it was only to the height of my legs, but it looked good. I'll take my granddaughter and take a look, and you can take care of yourselves. ”

Yuan Tao and Xue: "......"

"What does the mother do when she plants trees?"

The concubine said, "I planted a small sapling, which is as big as my granddaughter. Later, when my granddaughter grew taller every year, the sapling also grew taller every year, and when she grew up, wouldn't it be interesting to see that it was a tree of the same age as herself? ”

It turned out that this tree was also planted for the lord of the small county.

Yuan Tao and Xue glanced at each other, and the two said, "Let's go with the concubine." ”

The concubine held the little princess, and the couple followed behind, and when they walked to the backyard, they found that what the concubine said was not true, she had planted not just one sapling, but many.

The noble concubine hugged the little princess and talked to her, "Good girl, have you seen it?" These trees were planted for you by your grandmother. When you're older, they'll be bigger, and when it's time to let them shade you from the heat. ”

"The mother has planted so much."

"What if you only plant one, what if you die?"

The concubine has always been straightforward and fast-talking, to tell the truth, she planted trees with good intentions, but she didn't want to touch any eyebrows and bring disadvantages to her precious granddaughter.

Yuan Tao and Xue were accustomed to the way the concubine spoke, so they didn't care, and the family walked towards the hall after seeing the tree, and each sat down to drink tea and talk.

The concubine always held the little princess with her own hands, and said to the Xue family: "When the emperor brought the queen and their mothers to escape the summer, I saw that the queen was like this every day holding the eldest prince to read to him, and the eldest prince listened seriously. It's a pity that I don't know any books, you and I read a lot, so you have to read to her often! ”

Xue couldn't laugh or cry, "Don't worry, I will." ”
