At the time of Hai, the moon is in the middle of the sky.
Imperial City Street is still bustling with activity.
The carriage was driving slowly on the street, and the queen was sitting in the carriage, her beautiful eyes slightly closed, not knowing what she was thinking.
When the carriage reached the intersection between the end of the street and the palace road, she suddenly said, "Go to the eldest princess's mansion."
Aunt Jin agreed and ordered the driver to turn around.
The Princess's Mansion is located in Dongyi Lane, and there are only two mansions in the entire alley.
At the end of the alley is the Second Princess's Mansion, and the Eldest Princess's Mansion is at the end of the alley.
The moonlight was bright and bright, enveloping the entire mansion.
After entering the door, walk around the screen wall and walk along a bluestone path to the flower hall.
People in the hall were chattering.
"Tonight we are celebrating the moon. There is a lot of excitement outside. Why did you come here instead?" The eldest princess, Feng Xi, was sitting on a low couch by the window. The flower window behind her was wide open. When she turned around, she could see the bright moon.
After teasing, she looked down at the baby in her arms and patted the baby's back with one hand, "Little baby, be good, don't cry. Are you sleepy? Mom is holding you to sleep... oh, don't cry anymore, Feng is with you. Look, isn’t Xiaobao so good?”
A woman in her late fifties, with gray hair on her temples and a pale and haggard face, she looked several years older than her actual age.
When holding the baby, her face is full of tenderness.
There were tea sets and snacks placed on the small table on the couch. The Queen sat on the other side. She looked at the swaddled doll and hummed, "Little Treasure is very good."
The compliment made the eldest princess smile even bigger. She lowered her head and put her face on the doll, "Your third aunt praises you for being so good. You are really my mother's good baby."
After a pause, she looked up at the Queen again, with confusion in her eyes, "You have always been very busy on the night of the moon festival, why did you come to my place? But something happened? Those old ministers in the court gave you a hard time? Who, sister, taught you a lesson? he goes!"
"No one dares to bully me. I just miss you and Xiaobao. Come and see you."
"Sweet talk, hum, when will you miss me? You obviously want to see my little baby. The little guy is silent. He is asleep, shush."
The Queen lowered her voice in response, "Xiaobao is asleep. Sister, please take Xiaobao back to the room to rest. I have also returned to the palace."
Feng Xi stood up carefully, moving gently for fear of disturbing the sleeping baby in her arms, "I won't see you off, I'm going back to the room."
After watching the woman tiptoe away, the queen sat on the low couch for a while before getting up and leaving the eldest princess's residence.
After exiting the gate, there was a beautiful carriage parked quietly next to the carriage returning to the palace.
Hearing the noise outside, the people in the car opened the curtains, and the beautiful woman with a pretty face stuck her head out, "Are you going to see the eldest sister?"
"Well, I just coaxed her to rest." The Queen stepped forward and looked at each other through the window with the beautiful woman in the car. "Since you are here, why don't you go in?"
"Go and see her hold a stuffed doll as a treasure? You won't go." The beautiful woman averted her eyes.
Duplicity.
The queen smiled helplessly, "It seems that the second sister happened to pass by the alley. I am going back to the palace. Do you want to go see the lanterns or go back to the house to rest?"
The woman in the car was silent and said in a low voice, "I just came back from the street and saw your carriage parked here. I'll just wait a little longer. I'll go home and sleep naturally."
"It turns out we are going back home. Then I will go ahead and make room for the second sister's carriage to turn around."
"..."
The carriage returning to the palace slowly left the alley, and the beautiful woman's angry voice came from behind, "Why are you still as naughty as you were when you were young! You always don't show respect to others!"
…
The next day, Mid-Autumn Festival.
The festive atmosphere is getting stronger, and the streets are full of people selling moon dumplings.
The residents on the third floor of the Back Street Luxury Inn were awakened by the noise, and one by one they stretched and yawned and walked out of the room.
"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, we should eat moon dumplings to suit the occasion, and we must celebrate the Reunion Festival." Du Buguo stood in the corridor in front of the house, raised his hand and pulled the head of the bird's nest that had been crushed by sleep twice, and made a shape, "Baixiaofeng" , shall we buy a monthly package later?"
"If you want to eat, buy it yourself. Why do you call me?" Bai Xiaofeng had just gotten up, lazily leaning on the railing and looking downstairs.
The old man said confidently, "You have money and I don't."
"Bai Yu has it."
"How can you take it from your own pocket?"
Bai Xiaosheng's good mood in the early morning was gone, and black energy was coming from his forehead. This old man really didn't have a roof over his head for a whole day!
The boys came over laughing and joking from behind, "Grandpa Du, Uncle Changdong, let's go buy moon dumplings together after breakfast. Bai Yu asked the waiter at the shop and went around to the main street. The first dim sum shop sold moon dumplings. Ann is the most delicious.”
The old man was immediately led over and cleared up the smoke, "The most delicious? You have to eat it to know that grandpa likes salty food!"
Bing'er and Wheat Sui raised their hands, "We like sweet fillings!"
Tianbao came up and rubbed their heads, "Buy them all."
In the lobby below, Bai Yu poked his head out, curled his lips and asked with a smile, "Would you like Yangchun noodles with meat buns, oil and fruit, and shrimp porridge?"
Eight heads immediately appeared next to the railing on the third floor, saying in unison, "Eat!"
The diners in the lobby looked sideways and laughed.
Perhaps these people are too energetic and can easily infect others. Sitting around them and eating breakfast, the diners' appetites unknowingly work up.
The inn received a lot more money this morning than usual.
After breakfast, we turned to the main street and saw a long queue in front of the dim sum shop, all coming to buy fresh mooncakes.
Bai Yu didn't want to wait half an hour to get a bite of dim sum, so he used the silver trick and successfully moved from the bottom of the queue to the front.
The poisonous old man's face changed from dark clouds to sunny.
The boys and girls burst out laughing, even Sweetie's lips curled up.
Bai Xiaofeng shook her folding fan and couldn't help laughing, "This prodigal son."
"Uncle Changdong, Bai Yu is not an ordinary prodigal. He can lose and even make money, hahaha!"
"He was able to take hundreds of thousands of taels of money out of Wei Li's mouth that should have been put into the national treasury. This is a skill that I, a future Confucian businessman, would be inferior to."
"What kind of future Confucian businessman are you? You just want to put money on your face and just run away! I am different. I will definitely be the leader of the martial arts alliance in the future!"
"Let's see, I have never seen a fool who can become the leader of the martial arts league, but I hope you are that exception."
"If I can't be the leader of the alliance, you can't be a great writer either!"
"Who said I want to be a great writer? My brother's wish is to be a gentleman, that's enough."
While the boys waiting on the roadside were noisy, a carriage drove over and stopped on the street, right next to the eight people waiting for snacks.
An elderly graceful woman got out of the car, holding a brocade swaddling baby in her arms and carefully stepping on the ground with the support of her maid.
Before she could stand still, a few reckless children ran out of nowhere and bumped into her while running and playing. They hit the graceful lady's calf, causing her to stumble and the swaddling clothes in her hands flew forward.
The lady's face suddenly turned pale, her eyes were red, and she rushed forward regardless, with a sad voice, "Xiaobao——!"
