The peach is young and bright.
The three-year appointment arrived as scheduled.
In the yard, there sat a cardamom woman in a light green Ru skirt and a bun on her head.
By the afterglow, the woman held a book in her hand, her fingers were white and slender, and her eyebrows were a little sad. She looked out of the courtyard from time to time.
The breeze blew, and the leaves fell. The woman slowly stood up, picked up the leaves and looked at the leaves in her hand in a daze.
Inside, an old woman came out with a tray in her hand and said, "miss sheng'er, this is your favorite peach blossom cake."
Xue Yusheng turned back, his bright big eyes smiled for a moment, put the leaves in his hand on the stone table, and hurriedly got up to pick up the things in Mammy's hand: "Mammy, how many times have I said that when the things are ready, you just call me. Why take them out by yourself?"
Mammy smiled at miss sheng'er in front of her. She thought it would be difficult for three years, but she lived like this. In the blink of an eye, it passed.
Today, miss sheng'er is more graceful and moving than she was three years ago. Even if she wears a blue Luo shirt at will, she is very bright now.
Seeing mammy looking at her, Xue Yusheng was a little shy and said shyly, "what's mammy looking at me like this?"
Mammy praised, "miss sheng'er is about to turn 15. She is really more and more handsome year by year."
Yes, she will be 15 years old soon. Tomorrow is her birthday. The day after tomorrow... Is the deadline they agreed. Will she really show up?
For three years, she hasn't sent letters to the capital, but for three years, she hasn't seen half a reply.
For a time, she thought that her brother Yixun would never come back. She really got a reputation in the capital and married an official lady.
Often thinking like this, Xue Yusheng couldn't help but red his eyes.
"What's the matter with Miss sheng'er? Miss childe again?"
Mammy asked softly, and she didn't dare to say too much, because his childe said that he must not disclose his identity to Shenger girl before he came back.
Xue Yusheng didn't speak. She just sighed gently, put the peach blossom crisp in one hand into her mouth, and took a small bite, but there was no taste of eating any more.
In the end, the peach blossom crisp changed the formula, or did the people who ate the peach blossom crisp lose their mood at that time.
Seeing that Xue Yusheng didn't speak, Mammy stopped asking. She knew that the girl was old and had her own ideas. If she wanted to say something, she would have told her long ago.
Of course, sheng'er's mind was simple. Even if she didn't say it, she guessed nine times out of ten.
Her little childe really hasn't contacted her for a long time. Isn't something really wrong? After all, chaotang has been too unstable recently.
Mammy was thinking and saw the little prince push the door in.
He was holding a cage in his arms. There was a shivering puppy in the cage. The puppy sobbed and looked at them pitifully.
Xue Yusheng saw the little thing and immediately got up, gathered around the little prince and said, "elder martial brother, where did you get such a little guy?"
The little prince explained, "when I was just on the street, I saw someone peddling this thing. It looks very cute. I thought that girls should like it, so I bought it for you. Isn't it your birthday tomorrow? This little guy will give it to you."
The little prince said, put the cage in his hand on the ground, opened the cage, and the little things in it came out with careful steps.
"It's so cute."
Xue Yusheng squatted down and gently stroked the fur of the little dog in front of him.
While stroking Xue Yusheng, he commented: "the dog looks different from what we usually see. It has short hair and wrinkled. It looks like a little old man, but it's still very cute."
The little prince stared quietly at Xue Yusheng in front of him. Mammy said, "what kind of tea would you like to drink today? Can you choose with me?"
The little prince put away the folding fan in his hand and responded faintly: "good."
When the two entered the house, Mammy couldn't wait to ask, "little prince, has the Holy Lord heard anything recently? I haven't received any news for three months."
The little prince frowned, and the fan patted on his palm. Then he said faintly, "I haven't received any news for nearly two months. I went to the capital last month, but I couldn't even get in the city gate. It's not good."
Mammy was shocked when she heard this. Even the little prince could not enter the capital, which showed that the sky in the capital had really changed.
Mammy couldn't help but said in a deep voice, "what's the point of holding the Daquan in your hand? The emperor was a new talent last time. This time... Alas, is it difficult for her to emulate the female emperor of the previous dynasty? That's a curse for thousands of years."
"Who knows."
The little prince also frowned: "tomorrow is sheng'er's birthday. It was agreed at that time. If sheng'er doesn't come tomorrow, he will find another good son-in-law as agreed. He's really willing?"
"The holy nature is reluctant."
Mammy sighed that they had always said the same thing. If they hadn't come back yet, something must have happened.
The little prince suddenly asked, "haven't you told Miss sheng'er his identity so far?"
Mammy shook her head: "I made a poisonous oath before the holy master, and I must not reveal his identity. The holy master also thinks of miss sheng'er. After all, he wants to do great things. If he reveals the things here in the past, wouldn't it lead to great disaster for miss sheng'er?"
The little prince nodded at the speech: "that's true. The Empress Dowager is cruel and ruthless. There's nothing she can't do. For example, in order to eliminate my qualification to compete for imperial power, ah..."
Mammy heard this and looked sympathetically at the little prince.
When the first emperor died, the prince who had been looking for him for many years was not found. Among the remaining three princes, one was stupid, one was beheaded for his crime, and the rest was the little prince. After poisoning, he survived, but he contracted a hidden disease.
"Don't mention it."
The little prince smiled awkwardly: "in fact, there is nothing bad about such a day for me. I will go through fire and water as long as the holy master needs me in the future."
Just at this time, Xue Yusheng came in from the door. Seeing that they were still standing in the house, he opened his mouth and asked, "elder martial brother, I saw that the dog was really good. My family always liked it. When I saw it, I hugged the little thing in my arms and didn't want to let it go for a moment. I'm afraid it's my own baby."
Mammy and the little prince looked out the door. Sure enough, they saw a big white tiger in the yard holding the puppy under its paws. The puppy was also happily taken care of. One dog and one tiger got along very well.
