The news about Xu Cairen's return to favor was widely spread, and Li Sixu had heard about it, but she had been busy giving gifts these days.
There were many people who made friends with her, and Linglongju received a lot of New Year gifts.
Anyway, her father had an affair, and Wang Yuanbao moved the New Year's gifts to Linglong Residence for free, and then her Aunt Yuzhen and her eldest brother all sent New Year's gifts from outside the palace to the palace.
What comes and goes!
Of course she wanted to return the favor.
Fortunately, with the batch of vegetables and fruits grown by Leng Gong and the latest batch of glassware sent by Wang Yuanbao, the New Year's gift she sent out was also novel.
Here in the palace, I want to send the empress, the virtuous concubine, the noble concubine Liu Jieyu, the talented people, etc., as well as her royal brothers and sisters, the prince's brother.
Outside the palace, first of all, there was her master, her senior brother's grandfather Wang Tao, and the virtuous minister Yao and Song, whom she respected very much, and Jiang Shidu who helped him supervise the construction of the secret room. They helped build the beams of the greenhouse in Shangyang Palace. grown ups.
When Granny Wei was discussing the gift list with Li Sixu, she saw that Yao Chong and Song Jing were included in the list, and she couldn't help but mention it.
"Princess, are we, Linglongju, getting too close to foreign ministers?"
"These are all revealed in front of my father."
Aunt Wei was always right to be cautious. Li Sixu took the gift list and explained to her: "Master Jiang helped Supervisor Sisi build a secret room and dug a canal to bring water into Shangyang Palace. Master Liang also helped Sisi build it." A greenhouse."
"Master Yao and Master Song all treat Sisi as a cherished grandson. They either give advice or help Sisi. Besides, they just send some fruits and vegetables to their house. They are not expensive things, so it doesn't matter."
Whatever!
After all, their little princess is a girl, not a prince.
Besides, it was in the presence of His Majesty, except for the few people who bumped into Xingqing Hall while delivering food, there seemed to be no suspicion of wooing the courtiers.
Aunt Wei then gave gifts according to the list made by Li Sixu.
The various mansions that were on good terms with Li Sixu were actually thinking of sending things to the palace, and Linglong Residence received a bunch of new year gifts here and there.
There were a lot of things to play with and eat, and there were even small items, jewelry, and jade toys that I picked up from Persian merchants.
Everyone knows that Li Sixu is a greedy little cat, so Princess Yuzhen and the eldest prince collected all kinds of food from outside the palace and brought it to the palace. Li Sixu was fed a lot of food and was thinking about having a New Year's Eve banquet at night. After just a cup of hot bird's nest, I didn't feel like eating anymore.
"Sisi is not full!"
Several people gathered around the charcoal fire, and Yu Jieyu ordered Qinghe: "Quickly bring some snacks for Sisi and Yaoyao."
"If you don't eat it, if you don't eat it, you will become a fat pig if you eat Sisi."
After being busy all day, she finally had time to spend with Yu Jieyu. Li Sixu affectionately pulled her mother's hand: "Mom, please don't feed Sisi snacks, okay? Sisi needs to keep some food in her belly. New Year’s Eve banquet tonight.”
Yu Jieyu followed Li Sixu in everything.
Aunt Wei and Qing He thought that their mother-in-law would not stuff snacks for the little princess.
But Yu Jieyu shook her head and said seriously: "No, the little fat pigs are the prettiest. I want to feed Sisi and Yaoyao into little fat pigs."
"Empress..."
Yaoyao yelled out in anxiety, but Li Sixu pursed her lips and smiled.
Her mother is so bad now that she teases Yaoyao with a fat pig?
Yaoyao didn't want to turn into a fat pig after being fed all day long. She looked at Yu Jieyu resentfully, and Yu Jieyu stretched out her hand to pinch her face and kept laughing.
Realizing that Yu Jieyu was teasing her, Yuanyuan looked angrily: "The empress is evil!"
She was used to playing with Yu Jieyu and chased her around the house. Yu Jieyu, who was suffocated by the charcoal fire, wanted to breathe, opened the curtain and ran out of the house.
Before Yaoyao could chase her out, she quickly ran in like a ghost.
"Sisi, the bad woman is here!"
The only person who could be called a bad woman by her mother was Xu Cairen, who had bullied her and Yu Jieyu, and Xu Cairen even knocked down her mother when he was crazy.
This will cause her mother to have a deep psychological shadow!
Even if she is just pretending to be an idiot, she will subconsciously call her a bad woman and come to her for comfort.
Yu Jieyu pulled her sleeves, and Li Sixu walked out of the house, and saw Xu Cairen standing on the porch.
"Ms. Xu's illness has been cured by Sisi. She is no longer a bad woman."
Li Sixu asked Yu Jieyu: "Do you like the fruits and vegetables that Sisi brought back?"
Courgettes are the best!
Yu Jieyu nodded hurriedly.
Li Sixu told her in a soft voice: "The courgette that my mother loves most is grown by Madam Xu. Is Madam Xu a bad person?"
"No... right...!"
Yu Jieyu looked at Xu Cairen for a long time, then tugged on Li Sixu's sleeve: "Then I don't blame her!"
In fact, Xu Cairen was shocked when he suddenly saw Yu Jieyu. After all, he had been so bad to her before. Hearing her call out "bad woman" made him feel uneasy.
Especially when Yu Jieyu pulled Li Sixu to complain, Xu Cairen was even more worried.
The little princess loves her empress the most. Do you blame her for coming to Linglong Residence and scaring her?
Fortunately, Li Sixu explained to Yu Jieyu in a gentle manner.
At this time, Yu Jieyu said that she was not to blame. Xu Cairen was grateful and said, "I have met Sister Yu. In the past, I was very offensive. I hope Sister Yu can forgive me."
Xu Cairen gave the courgette he brought to Yu Jieyu, and Yu Jieyu jumped up and shared the courgette with Yaoyao.
Li Sixu knew that her father had summoned Xu Cairen to attend the New Year's Eve banquet. She thought that Xu Cairen had come to Linglongju first and was about to move back to Ruoshuixuan before joining them at the New Year's Eve banquet.
When the snow stopped and they sat in a chariot sedan all the way to Hanyuan Hall where the New Year's Eve banquet was held, they realized that Xu Cairen did not intend to move back to Ruoshuixuan.
"I have made up my mind to stay in the cold palace and farm the land, and use my meager strength to contribute to the Tang Dynasty."
He looked at Xu Cairen, whose complexion had become much darker due to farming.
Li Sixu said with a guilty conscience: "My dear, please don't make a hasty decision on this matter. You can still farm when you move back to Ruoshuixuan."
"Princess, there is no need to persuade concubines!"
Xu Cairen said righteously: "If I move back to Ruoshuixuan, how will I be different from the concubines in this harem? I want to be a useful person and be rewarded based on my ability, not like them."
The Concubine Xian and Gao Cairen were at the next table. Wu Jieyu, who happened to be dressed in a gorgeous dress, entered the palace. Li Sixu hurriedly twisted a piece of snacks and stuffed it into Xu Cairen's mouth, blocking her mouth.
Xu Cairen choked on the snack and rolled his eyes. He whimpered at Wu Jieyu, took a sip of tea, swallowed the snack and put it next to Li Sixu's ear.
"Little princess, is this Wu Jieyu crazy?"
Li Sixu was still worried that Xu Cairen had a loud voice and would offend others by yelling after swallowing the snack, so she didn't realize that there was anything wrong with Wu Jieyu.
"What happened to Wu Jieyu?"
"Her clothes!"
Xu Cairen opened his eyes in horror: "How dare she dress like this and come out to show off..."
