Chapter 359: Ancestor Xiangxiang
"Zhi Ning pays homage to our ancestors!"
"May the Queen Mother be blessed!"
Honghui and Qingxiao also expressed their greetings in a sweet voice: "Greetings to our ancestors!"
The wet nurse came forward to pay homage to another pair of twins.
The four grandchildren, big and small, are all pretty and cute.
The look in the eyes of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager almost made them busy.
"Oh, good, good!"
"Everyone, get up quickly."
The Empress Dowager was a dignified and serious person, and the younger generation were always afraid of her when they saw her.
But Qingxiao was different. After she stood up and took a look, she suddenly covered her mouth and smiled.
Concubine De Gui said quickly: "Qingxiao, please don't be rude."
Lu Pheasant also hurriedly stood beside his daughter.
Qingxiao raised her head: "Qingxiao lost his manners."
"It's just that the smell of our ancestors is particularly good."
"Qingxiao couldn't hold it back for a moment, and I hope our ancestors will forgive me."
The Empress Dowager praised: "This four-year-old baby's mouth is almost as big as that of your fifth aunt."
"Qingxiao, please tell me, what does our ancestor smell like?"
The Empress Dowager pointed at her: "Concubine De, look."
"Qiqi Ge, the older she gets, the more immoral she becomes."
"She even dares to make fun of the Ai family."
"Qingxiao, don't be afraid. If you speak well, Mother Ukuma will be rewarded."
Qingxiao: "Qingxiao is not afraid."
"It just feels very fragrant, like cinnamon, and like meat with sugar on it."
There was a burst of laughter in the hall.
They belong to the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager and Aunt Sumala.
Aunt Sumala was the first to stop and said: "Ancestor, I told you to eat less beef cubes and mutton jerky."
"Look, even the little girl Qingxiao smelled it."
The Queen Mother also said: "Qingxiao, tell Nanny Ukuma, do you like eating meat?"
"like."
"Qingxiao, I like eating meat the most."
"But Enie said Qingxiao's belly is round and she shouldn't eat too much, especially if it's dipped in sugar."
"Yeah?"
"Come here and let Aunt Ukuma touch it to see if it's really round?"
Qingxiao, who was originally calm and generous, suddenly became nervous: "Actually, Qingxiao doesn't think it's very round."
"Mother Ukuma, can you stop touching me?"
"Eni said, the more you touch it, the bigger it will become."
The Empress Dowager laughed so hard that she almost burst into tears.
The Empress Dowager also waved: "Qingxiao, come over to our ancestor's place."
"My ancestors didn't touch your belly."
Qingxiao glanced at Sifujin, then walked over with short legs: "My ancestors smell great."
"Qingxiao is here."
"Oh, come on, little baby." The Empress Dowager was so happy that the little guy got close to her, "Qingxiao is so cute, our ancestors want to reward you with something good."
"Look, do you want this shiny jade bracelet, or the fragrant meat strips?"
Qingxiao was immediately embarrassed: "Xingxiao, beautiful!"
"The meat is delicious."
She looked at her brother Honghui, who was held in the arms of Concubine De.
Honghui's eyes were on the twins.
Enie said that as the eldest brother, he has to take care of his younger siblings when he goes out.
Qingxiao's eyes suddenly lit up: "Ancestor, Qingxiao has a pair of younger brothers at home. If there are too few, they will rob them."
The Empress Dowager said: "They are still young and only drink goat's milk. They cannot eat meat."
"Hmm..." Qingxiao continued to lower her head and think.
Suddenly "chirp".
Qingxiao took advantage of the Empress Dowager's unpreparedness, raised her head, and kissed the Empress Dowager on the face.
"The clear sky is fragrant. Can our ancestors give me a little more?"
"Just a little?"
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment.
After so many years, she has experienced the ups and downs of the harem and has become as calm as water.
In previous years, when I summoned the juniors, I just saluted and said hello, rewarded them with some things, and left.
Her eyesight was so dim that she couldn't even recognize people.
This time, the prince was deposed.
The emperor also felt bitter in his heart which he could not express.
Just as it happened, good news came one after another from the Sifujin Mansion.
Aunt Sumala mentioned that it was rare for the Empress Dowager to meet her alone.
Unexpectedly, the cold fourth prince would actually have such a precious baby.
The Queen Mother's heart almost melted: "Oh, who can bear this?"
"Here, if the ancestors don't give it to you, Mother Ukuma will give it to you."
Qingxiao immediately saluted: "Thank you very much, Aunt Ukuma."
"Thank you, ancestor."
Aunt Sumama immediately asked someone to bring a plate of beef cubes.
After Qingxiao thanked him, he immediately ran to Honghui: "Brother, look."
"Give Qingxiao to my brother."
The Queen Mother asked: "Honghui, what are you doing?"
Honghui has a big head but a small body. He stood upright and said: "Returning to our ancestors, Enie said that Honghui is the eldest brother."
"When you go out, you have to take good care of your brothers and sisters."
"Honghui is looking at his brothers."
The two little guys got into the carriage for the first time and fell asleep soundly.
When we arrived at Cining Palace, we were not awake at all.
Honghui still looked at them eagerly.
The Empress Dowager said: "My brothers are all asleep. Honghui, please come over and play for a while."
"Amma said that life is short and Honghui still has a lot to learn."
"Can't be playful."
"When you grow up in the future, you won't be able to protect the people you want to protect."
The Empress Dowager smiled: "Who does Honghui want to protect?"
Honghui frowned: "Ancestor, do you want Honghui to answer?"
The Queen Mother: "...A lot?"
Honghui straightened his face and nodded seriously: "Quite a lot."
He stretched out his round fingers and began to count: "There is the Yongjun Prince's Palace, and the Imperial Grandpa and the Imperial Mama in the Imperial City... the tenant farmers in Ama's garden, the old man who makes delicious candied haws on the street, and the people who sell them at the city gate. The old lady who makes delicious tofu pudding..."
In the main hall, the silver carbon burned with a "beep beep beep" sound.
Several elders were dumbfounded.
The Empress Dowager asked: "Sifujin, do you know?"
Lu Zhi smiled: "I usually see Honghui counting, but I didn't know he could remember so many people."
The Empress Dowager smiled, and her face suddenly turned serious: "Honghui is like his Amma, upright and public-minded."
"It seems that the Ai family missed a lot in the past..."
"Concubine De Gui, Si Fu Jin, you have all contributed to my great achievements in raising children in the Qing Dynasty. Please come to Cining Palace more often in the future."
Qingxiao stuffed a beef pellet into her mouth and asked, "Ancestor, where is Qingxiao?"
The Empress Dowager smiled again: "Especially bring our little girl Qingxiao with you."
"Qingxiao, do you want to come to Cining Palace to see your ancestors often?"
"Old Ancestor Xiangxiang, Qingxiao is coming!"
The Queen Mother asked: "Is that the fragrance of ancestors or the fragrance of beef grains?"
Qingxiao looked down at the beef cubes in his hand, then looked up at his kind ancestor.
Very embarrassed.
He had no choice but to look at his brother again.
Honghui happened to be fed a beef pellet by Concubine De Gui and ignored her.
Lu Fei stepped forward: "Our Qingxiao is the most fragrant. If you don't believe it, Qingxiao will let Madam Huang Ma smell it."
Qingxiao was startled: "Mom Ukuma, you can smell it, but you can't touch Qingxiao's belly!"
The whole room was happy again.
