299 postscript twelve
Mid-Autumn Festival is here again.
The fifteenth royal family reunited. The next day, Xu Jin issued an order to invite Fu Rongniang's family to come to the palace to enjoy the moon, which shows that the relationship between the emperor and the empress is still the same as before.
After the moon was enjoying, the adults went home. Fu Rong kept the children in the palace for a few more days. Fu Chen's son Silang was only six months old. Fu Rong couldn't stay, so he asked the second princess to carry him back. After doing so, in fact, there were only Yuanyuan, Achen and Hu Chen in the palace, but it seemed that it became much more lively.
"Mom, Hu Chen and A Chen are fighting again!" Eight-year-old A Xuan ran in like a wind and complained to her mother.
Fu Rong had a headache, so he put down the small clothes that had been sewn half for Brother Luo, and followed his daughter to the Imperial Garden.
In the imperial garden, Yuanyuan was teaching her younger brother a lesson. Brother Wang stood opposite him with the five-year-old Huchen, and lowered his head to coax him. Seeing Fu Rong coming, Huchen's eyes lit up, and rushed to his aunt like a tiger, hugged her aunt's thigh and complained, "Auntie, Cousin Chen beat me!" He raised his little hand to show his aunt, "It's all bleeding!"
Fu Rong lowered his head and saw that the boy's white hand was indeed a little bit of skin rubbing against the back of his body.
"He even bit me!" A Chen was not willing to be outdone, so he ran over and raised his arms to show his aunt.
Fu Rong saw a circle of small teeth marks left by Hu Chen, and all of them were faintly bloody.
The two cousins each hugged their aunt one thigh and begged her to make the decision for them. Brother Luo, who was led by Apei, was unhappy and ran to the front in a hurry, crying and asking his mother to hug her, "Mom hug me, don't hug them!"
He is the youngest among them, only three years old, so A Chen let go. Hu Chen smiled proudly, continued to hold his aunt's thigh, patted the other one for his little cousin, "Brother Luo hugs here!"
Brother Luo blinked his eyes and hugged him.
Fu Rong was amused and crying, touched Huchen's head, picked up his youngest son, led a group of children of all sizes to the pavilion, and asked Brother Wang: "Why did the two of them fight?"
Hu Chen raised his neck and wanted to speak, but A Xuan almost covered his mouth, "I didn't ask you!"
Brother Wang smiled and said, "We play hide-and-seek. After A Chen hid in the tree first, Hu Chen also wanted to hide it. A Chen pushed him, but Hu Chen fell down without standing firmly, so he bit A Chen."
Yuanyuan scolded her younger brother: "You are three years older than Huchen. What's wrong with letting him do it once?"
A Chen looked at Hu Chen who was winking at him and pursed his lips.
He is the same age as Axuan and Apei, a few months older, and is usually playful and active. Now he is scolded by his sister and his eyes turn red.
Fu Rong felt very distressed, so he called his eldest nephew to him, held his hand and said, "Achen doesn't cry. My aunt understands that this is something that Huchen is wrong. He shouldn't be snatching you up, but Huchen is young and ignorant. He makes mistakes again in the future. Achen is a brother and reasons to him. If he doesn't listen, you will ignore him. Anyway, he is not as strong as you, so he can't do anything to hide there, but he is not allowed to push his brother anymore. What if he falls and hits his head?"
Achen's tears fell, "I know, I didn't push him when he bit me." He just pushed his younger brother casually, not knowing that he would fall.
Fu Rong quickly asked his son to help his brother wipe his tears, "Brother Luo quickly gave your handkerchief to his cousin."
Brother Luo obediently took out the small handkerchief embroidered by his mother from his arms and handed it to his cousin. Seeing that Ah Chen was about to pick it up, the little guy blinked his eyes and suddenly hid behind him again. He lay in his mother's arms and was reluctant, "Use sister... use mother... no, use brother's!" He didn't want to use sister's mother's handkerchief for his cousin, so brother's is fine.
The little boy turned his head to look at his brother and smiled treacherously.
Brother Wang was helpless. The younger brother asked him who he liked the most. The family had a round of rotation, and his brother was at the end, next to his father, but he liked to follow him the most. When he was tired of playing, he went to find two sisters to ask them to help wash their faces.
Pinching his brother's little face, Brother Wang took A Chen aside and continued to comfort him.
Fu Rong called the worst Hu Chen to him again, pretending to be angry and asked him: "So many trees, why do you have to grab it with your cousin?"
Hu Chen turned his big and bright eyes, and he was so arrogant that he was so angry that he did something bad. "That tree is the thickest!"
Before Fu Rong could speak, A Xuan said angrily: "No matter how thick it is, A Chen took it first. How can you snatch it from him? Then I also like your black and white impermanence. Can I snatch it? If you are not honest, I will tell my aunt to go and let her shut you down in the study!"
Hu Chen finally became anxious and said anxiously: "Mom is pregnant with her sister, don't be angry, sister, don't complain!"
"Then you apologize to A Chen and promise not to be angry anymore. I won't tell my aunt." A Xuan said with a tense face.
Hu Chen didn't want to, so he looked at his aunt.
Fu Rong taught him softly: "If you do something wrong, you must admit your mistake. After admitting your mistake, it is your good nephew that your aunt likes. Huchen, go quickly. If you coax your cousin, your aunt will take you to cook dates."
When he heard that there was something fun, Hu Chen immediately admitted his mistake.
The cousins reconciled as before.
Fu Rong ordered the little eunuch to prepare things first, and she led a few children to walk to the jujube garden.
There were no jujube trees in the palace because she liked to eat dates, and later she would no longer be affected by Qi Zhu's harm to her back then. Xu Jin asked dozens of jujube trees to build a date orchard. Every year when the dates were ripe, a few bites of the family came to make dates and eat them.
She led Luo Ge'er Hu Chen in the front, Axuan, Pei and Yuanyuan in the middle, and then the twelve-year-old Ling Shou was a few steps behind Yang Ge'er.
The little boy looked at Yuanyuan in front of him quietly, and could only see her side face when she turned her head. No two princesses were fair and not as beautiful as them. But he liked to see her the most. Every time he heard that she entered the palace, Ling Shou would hope that the prince would come over early so that he could take the opportunity to see her.
When he arrived at the jujube garden, Fu Rong stopped making dates. He sat under the tree and watched the children play. He sent a little palace maid to follow him so that the bamboo pole would not hit the little masters.
Brother Luo was too young to lift the bamboo pole, so he followed the prince's brother wearing a bamboo hat and carrying a small basket. Brother Wang hit the dates and then went to pick them up with a smile. The sisters called him that he couldn't go over, and for some reason he had to stick to his "disliked" brother.
Huchen had no sister at home, so he felt tired of holding a bamboo pole, so he followed Axuan and Apei with a bamboo basket to help pick up dates.
A Chen was so playful that he held up a bamboo pole and beat the dates with all his heart. The eunuch next to him was waiting to pick up the dates.
Yuanyuan turned her head and looked at it. Seeing Ling Shou standing next to Brother Wang, she looked over and turned around quickly. She couldn't help but laugh and shouted loudly: "Ling Shou, you have the best kung fu. Do you dare to compete with me to see who knocks more dates?"
Ling Shou's face turned red. He looked at the prince and refused reprimandedly: "Ling Shou dared not compete with his cousin."
Yuanyuan curled her lips and pointed to the bamboo basket behind her and said, "Since you don't dare, please help me pick up dates. There is Brother Luo there, so you don't have to worry about it."
Ling Shou looked at the prince.
Brother Wang smiled and nodded: "Go."
Ling Shou suppressed his joy and walked away calmly.
Yuanyuan led him to the jujube forest for a few more steps before stopping, and while tilting his head, he asked him quietly: "Have you done something wrong? Why do you turn around every time I look over? Don't want to deny it, I know you've peeked at me."
It turns out that she knows...
Ling Shouxin was beating and opening his mouth, but he didn't know how to explain.
Yuanyuan is eleven years old and is confused about men and women. Because her neighbor, Sister Song likes her uncle, she often talks in front of her, and she knows that she will secretly look at her if she likes someone. Does Ling Shou like her?
Unable to hear the boy's reply, Yuanyuan turned around and saw that the person who was originally looking at her immediately lowered his head.
I watch her for a while and don't watch her for a while. Do you like it?
I was so confused that I didn't notice that a date fell from the tree and hit her head.
Yuanyuan screamed softly.
Ling Shou couldn't help but look up, saw her covering her head, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Yuanyuan said aggrievedly: "It hurts to be hit by dates." She rubbed her head while saying that.
Ling Shou also wanted to rub her, but was embarrassed. Seeing that there were several bamboo hats on the ground there, which were prepared by the queen for everyone, only the second prince wore them, he said, "I'll get you a hat?"
Yuanyuan immediately shook her head and pointed at Axuan and Apei and said, "I don't wear it, sisters, so I don't wear it. Forget it, it doesn't hurt so I don't care." After saying that, she forgot the problem just now and continued to knock on the dates. She hit two dates with bright red all over her body. Yuanyuan was very surprised and put down the bamboo pole and went to pick it up by herself.
"Does it look good?" She took out a handkerchief and wiped it, and held it in front of Ling Shou to show it to him.
Ling Shou only glanced at Zao, his eyes fell on her red face, and he whispered: "It looks good."
Yuanyuan didn't pay attention to his eyes, pulled away the two dates, one was sent to her mouth, and the other was handed to him, "Try it, these date trees were moved from Xindu, and Xindu dates were tributes, so sweet."
Ling Shou was flattered and wanted to see if others were looking at this place. Yuanyuan saw him looking around and eating a date, and was ashamed of thieves, and said unhappy: "If you like it or not, I really don't know what you are thinking."
She wanted to withdraw her hand, but Ling Shou was anxious and went to grab it without thinking. She held her little hand with a pair of calluses because of martial arts practice.
As if he was scalded, Ling Shou quickly retracted.
Yuanyuan felt hot for some reason, so she stuffed the dates to him and turned her head to get them.
Ling Shou was stunned for a while before turning around, turning his back to everyone and putting the red dates into his mouth.
Fu Rong shook his head and laughed. A familiar man's voice suddenly came from behind, "How old are they? Do you know that they are in love?"
Fu Rong turned around, faced Xu Jinming's yellow dragon robe, sat down with him, squeezed into a rattan chair with her, wrapped her arm around her waist as if no one was around her, quickly smelled her, looked at her eyes and asked, "Don't you object?"
The thirty-one-year-old man has a deeper gaze and a handsomer face, and only gentleness remains unchanged.
Fu Rong quietly held his big hand around her waist and said to Ling Shouyuanyuan: "What are you against? They are still young and may not know what it means to like. How to live happily now? When you grow up in the future, Ruo Yuanyuan still likes to get close to Ling Shou, and Ling Shou is also good."
Ling Shou is now like Xu Jia, who was then. When his son Wang Ge ascended the throne, Ling Shou would also replace Xu Jia's position as the commander of the imperial guards, and he is completely worthy of his niece. Besides, this is all false, and the most important thing is whether Yuanyuan likes it or not.
She looked at the children with a smile, but Xu Jin kept staring at her beautiful face that year and asked her softly: "Dannong knows when was the first time I saw you in this life?"
Fu Rong thought about it and turned around and said to him: "I was in my village when I got acne?"
Xu Jin looked at her with a smile, "No, it was August when you were twelve years old, you were picking dates on the mountain."
Fu Rong suddenly realized, yes, Xu Jin was reborn more than half a year earlier than her.
Remembering this, Fu Rongmo calculated the time and couldn't help laughing, "As soon as the emperor came back, he read me all the letters?"
Xu Jintan admitted frankly, hugged her waist tightly and said, "Well, go to the palace to see my mother and sixth brother first. When you return to the palace in the evening, you will go to the place where you lived before. Then you will especially want to know what you are doing at the age of twelve and what you look like. If you get free, you will take Xu Jia."
He hugged her and pointed at the eleven-year-old Yuanyuan and said, "At that time, you were about the same height as Yuanyuan. You were running around with a bamboo pole, and you were hit and crying in pain... Seeing you acting cute to Zhengtang, I thought, why was this woman not like this in front of me in her previous life? I must let her act cute to me in this life."
After a big circle of bumps and bumps, I finally got what I wanted.
"Thick, let's live like we are now in the next life?" He murmured to her forehead.
Fu Rong was about to answer when the children burst into laughter from afar. The eldest daughter's voice was the loudest, and she said excitedly that her father was going to be her mother.
Fu Rong raised the corners of his mouth, his daughter guessed wrongly, it was not Xu Jin who wanted to kiss her, but...
Facing Xu Jin's affectionate gaze, she raised her head and printed her red lips onto his.
After tasting his goodness, then in the next life, this man named Xu Jin will be hers. She hides from him in this life. In this life, she will dress up and wait for him to come in beautifully. If he doesn't come, she will go to find him, find him, act coquettishly with him, and bewitch him for the rest of her life.
He has been his favorite queen for many generations.
