On snowy days, Yan Huo was afraid of the cold and didn't like to go out, but the snow-watching banquets in various prefectures in Beijing were in full swing; but Yan Huo was not really idle at home, so Han called her over, "Xiaoxiao, my mother is sick, you will prepare the New Year's Ceremony this year."

"Mom, even if you want me to do things, you don't have to pretend to be sick, right?" Yan Huo held his cheek with both hands and looked at Han with resentment.

"I didn't pretend to be sick, I'm really sick." Han's eyes wandered away from Yan Hu's gaze.

"Mom, you're exposed, Bisha didn't even get medicine for you." Yan Huo exposed her, "You have to act in the whole set, at least you can make a portion of tonics and pretend."

Han said chokingly, and after a moment of silence, he grabbed the scarf of Baotou, "You said just now that you want you to do things without having to pretend to be sick. Then I won't pretend, you can do things."

"Okay, prepare for the New Year's Ceremony, prepare for the New Year's Ceremony." Yan Huo replied cheerfully.

For the sake of the housekeeper, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are fighting wits and courage. In today's game, Han won, of course, this was Yan Hu's intention to give in. Although preparing for the New Year's gift is a bit trivial, it is not difficult. Just prepare for the regular rules of previous years, either increase or decrease.

On that day, Yan Huo was looking at the gift list sent to Prince Rong's Mansion. Tsai Mei came in and said, "Mrs. Young Madam, the East Palace has been sending New Year gifts, and Princess Changle has also come with her."

As soon as Yan Huo put on his shoes and stood up, Princess Changle came in, "Auntie." Her voice cords cried.

"What's wrong with Changle?" Yan Huo greeted him.

"Auntie." Princess Changle pouted, and tears were hidden in her eyes.

It turns out that something is wrong at first glance! Yan Huo took Princess Changle's hand and took her here to sit down, "You guys retreat."

The maids who followed Princess Changle had just stepped into the threshold. After hearing this, they retreated with the maids of Duke Anguo's mansion.

"Okay, Changle, what happened?" Yan Huo asked softly.

Princess Changle bit the corner of her lip, "Auntie, I don't want to marry my cousin, I don't like him."

"Is this what your mother means?" Yan Huo asked in a deep voice.

"My cousin said that my cousin and I are childhood sweethearts, and we are of the same age, so we should be husband and wife." Princess Changle said aggrievedly.

When Yan Huo heard that it was not the Crown Princess, he breathed a sigh of relief and comforted her: "That was just nonsense she wanted to say. Don't take it seriously. Your father and mother would not let you marry Li Zhang. Your marriage will be your emperor and grandmother."

"But my grandmother is talking about this to my mother now, and I am worried that my mother will be persuaded." Princess Changle said worriedly.

"Don't worry, your mother will not be moved." Yan Huo touched her head.

"Really?" Princess Changle asked uneasily.

"Believe in my aunt." Yan Huo smiled, "We Changle will definitely marry a man we like in the future."

Princess Changle smiled shyly, had lunch at Duke Anguo's mansion, and played with Zhuoer and Yueer for a while before Yan Hu arranged for someone to take her back to the East Palace. As Yan Hu expected, the Crown Princess was not convinced by Mrs. Li, and said firmly, "I will not marry Changle and An Le back to her parents' home."

Mrs. Li was so angry that she scolded her, "I climbed up the high branch and ignored my parents' home."

"Did my mother forget that my mother was not pregnant for a long time and was suffocated by the second and third aunts?" The Crown Princess reminded her calmly, "Did my mother forget that she gave birth to a daughter for the first time, and was laughed at by the second and third aunts? Did my mother forget that my three cousins ​​called me for losing money? My mother is broad-minded and can be forgotten, but I can't forget it." She believed in Buddhism, believed in cause and effect, and because she was a member of the Li family, she did not take revenge on the people of the second and third bedrooms, but it does not mean that she is really a Bodhisattva in the temple.

Mrs. Li left speechlessly and embarrassedly.

As the days slid, it was the twelfth lunar month. Heavy snow came one after another, and the weather became colder. Although Yandu Mansion issued a notice that many beggars were frozen to death on the streets, it did not affect the festive atmosphere of the New Year.

In the early morning, the fragrance of Laba porridge was filled with. The breakfast in each room was the steaming and fragrant Laba porridge. The wet nurse scooped a spoon of soft porridge and fed it to Brother Yue. Brother Yue refused to eat it and vomited it all out.

"He doesn't like eating, don't feed it." Fu Zhixing said. The wet nurse put down the bowl and helped Brother Yue wipe her mouth.

"I don't know who this kid's taste looks like." Yan Huo's eyes turned, "I'm not picky about food, I like everything."

Fu Zhixing's hand scooping porridge paused, "Like me, I'm picky about food."

Yan Huo burst into laughter and continued to drink porridge.

Zhuo'er ate with relish, and he especially likes to find lotus seeds in it.

After Laba Festival, the New Year will be. According to the practice, the yamen will become more leisurely, but Fu Zhixing returned home for several days. On that day, Yan Huo slept for an afternoon, and he deliberately stayed up and waited for Fu Zhixing to come back.

At the beginning of the year, Fu Zhi walked into the yard and saw that the lights were still on in the warm room. He walked in in surprise. Seeing Yan Huo sitting on the kang, holding a book in his hand, but he didn't read it. His head was shaking little by little, and he hurried forward to support her.

Yan Hu woke up suddenly, "You are back."

"Why haven't you been sleeping so late?" Fu Zhixing asked with a frown.

"Waiting for you." Yan Huo pouted, got into his arms, and hugged him.

Fu Zhixing smiled and said, "I'm cold, please let go first, I'll warm you up before hugging you."

"No." Yan Huo didn't let go, "What are you busy with? I haven't seen you for several days, I miss you."

Fu Zhixing could only sit down on the edge of the kang and carry people into his arms. "The weather was cold, not only were many craftsmen sick, but some officials also fell ill, and many things were busy." The second princess' wedding date was scheduled in early March, and the construction period of the princess's mansion was tight, making it impossible to rest in the cold winter.

"If you are busy, you have to pay attention to your health." Yan Hu reminded.

"I drink cold-relieving tea every day." Fu Zhixing smiled.

Both of them thought it was just because of the cold weather, so they didn't think much about it. Until three days later, Aunt Zeng ran to Yan Huo with a nervous look on her face and said, "Mrs. Young lady, a daughter-in-law in the kitchen who was responsible for purchasing fell ill, her daughter who was taking care of her was also sick, and a fire-burning maid who was close to her was also sick."

"Does my aunt think there is an infectious disease?" Yan Hu asked with a serious expression.

"There are only three people now, and I can't be completely sure. I have asked the people in the mansion to check to see if there are other people who are sick. If there are still people with the same symptoms, I'm afraid there will be some epidemic." Aunt Zeng said worriedly.

Two quarters of an hour later, Honeysuckle came in and replied, "Mrs. Young lady, there are still six people in the mansion who are also getting fever, and they all have contact with each other."

Yan Hu and Aunt Zeng both changed their faces. They had fallen sick so many people. It seemed that they were really sick. Yan Hu calmed down and "Come all the sick people to the Northwest Corner Hospital to ask the doctor to come to the mansion to see them, so that they don't let them come out to contact other people again."

Honeysuckle took the order and left.
