Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 116
The woman who gives away the child must have both children, wears red clothes, and sends auspicious omens to the devoutly begging woman on the Shangsi Festival.

In the old woman's basket are clay dolls, so-called gourds, wrapped with red thread, and red-shelled eggs that have been dyed.

The mud baby is chubby, only the size of an egg, wearing a big red bellyband, holding a bunch of gourds in his arms, the roots of the gourds are connected, and the big gourds carry the small gourds, implying the endless generations of descendants.

A red string is tied between the clay doll and the red-shelled egg, which is a pair.

Buy this pair, eat the eggs, untie the red thread and wrap it around the seeker's belt, put the gourd in the purse, and pray that Gao Xuan will allow the seeker to conceive a child as soon as possible.

Under the concubine's expectant eyes and the old lady's auspicious words, Jiang Changning picked a pair from the basket, and untied the red string that tied the eggs.

King Jin knew that Jiang Changning didn't like to eat this kind of boiled eggs, so when she peeled off the shell, he said, "Give me half."

"There are cakes. If you are hungry, I will have someone serve you." Toffee said.

"Mother and concubine, it is not enough to have a concubine to have a child, and the son must also contribute." King Jin said seriously.

The concubine was embarrassed by his blunt words, coughed lightly, and turned her head away uncomfortably.

Jiang Changning looked at King Jin who was winking at her, smiled so hard, handed him half an egg, and said silently: "Thank you.

King Jin replied silently: "Night."

Jiang Changning turned his head away and ignored him.

The concubine saw that the couple ate eggs, and Jiang Changning also put on a gourd, so she was satisfied and took Princess Kangren forward.

The couple followed side by side and enjoyed the scenery along the lakeside path.

"Does Ningning know the legend of Hongluo Lake?" King Jin asked.

"Just tell me, and I'll know." Jiang Changning said with a smile.

"In ancient times, there was a black fish that cultivated to become a spirit by the lakeside. It did not do good deeds, but did evil to its neighbors. On the night of the full moon, it even caught and preyed on boys and girls to increase its magic power. " King Jin told the story.

Jiang Changning followed him obediently, listening with gusto.

The purpose of King Jin telling this legend is: "I heard that as long as you pray to the lake, your wish will come true. What does Ningning want?"

"I'm living very well now, and I have nothing to ask for." Jiang Changning smiled, "Where's Yong Zhou?"

King Jin stared at her with deep affection in his eyes, "I have something to ask, and I ask that red conch fairy to let us be husband and wife forever."

Jiang Changning was about to speak, but someone shouted, "Brother Jin."

Looking back, it was Prince De's son and his concubine.

Most of the people who come to Hongluo Lake are couples in pairs.

Jin Wang was extremely depressed, this couple who got in the way.

Prince De's son came over and called out politely, "Hi, sister-in-law."

"Hi, son." Jiang Changning bowed and returned the half-respect, and retreated behind King Jin.

"Brother Jin, I'm holding a Qushui Liucup banquet at Hongluo Mountain Villa, you and your cousin sister-in-law come over and have a seat." Prince De invited.

"No, we came out with my mother, and we should go back to the city in a while." King Jin declined.

"That's it, let's meet again another day." Prince De said with a smile.

"Okay." King Jin smiled lightly.

Prince De's son and concubine Shizi had just left, when Qin Zhaoxi, Xie Baoyin and his party came along another road.

Qin Zhaoxi clasped his hands and said, "I have seen Prince Jin." After a pause, "I have seen Princess Jin."

Xie Baoyin also followed him, curtseying.

King Jin smiled and said, "Master Qin, you don't need to be too polite."

"Mrs. Qin, please excuse me." Jiang Changning held up, and saw Xie Baoyin's brows, with a wisp of smoke, and a faint blue shadow under his eyes.

If the previous incident hadn't happened, Jiang Changning would have pulled her aside and asked a few questions with concern, but now he would turn a blind eye.

The relationship between the two governments is estranged, and when they greeted each other and were about to pass each other, Princess Kangren came over with something in his hands, "Auntie, auntie, I picked up a bird."

Jiang Changning had the best reason to go away, so she greeted her.

Princess Kangren was holding a trembling little bird with no fur.

Jiang Changning's biological knowledge was limited, so he couldn't recognize what kind of bird it was, so he hurriedly shouted, "My lord, come and have a look."

"Excuse me." King Jin nodded with a smile, and went to Jiang Changning.

Qin Zhaoxi and Xie Baoyin couldn't follow, so they chose another path.

Xie Baoyin sighed and didn't find a chance to apologize to Sister Ning.

Qin Zhaoxi glanced at her, snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and strode forward.

"Young Commander?" Xie Baoyin stared blankly at his back, dazed for a moment, and then followed.

On the other side, King Jin looked at the bird carefully and said, "This is a hibiscus bird."

"Isn't hibiscus a flower? There are also birds named after flowers?" Princess Kangren asked curiously.

Jiang Changning smiled and said, "Furong bird is another name for canary."

"Its wings and legs are injured, it's so pitiful." Princess Kang Ren's eyes were full of distress.

"Although it didn't rain yesterday, there was a strong wind. This chick was probably blown down from the nest by the wind." Jiang Changning carefully touched the bird's head.

"Auntie, can I raise it?" Princess Kangren asked.

"Of course you can raise it if you want, but I'm afraid it won't be able to support it." Jiang Changning said.

"I will take good care of it." Princess Kang Ren looked at Jiang Changning pleadingly.

Jiang Changning put the veil on the little bird, "It has no hair, so you have to keep it warm. For its wound, when you return home, find some medicine to apply to it."

"Should I still catch bugs and feed it?" Princess Kangren asked.

"Looking at it like this, it shouldn't have hatched for long. You can mix vegetable juice with some egg yolks for it to eat." Jiang Changning has never raised birds, but he has seen people who have raised birds and knows some knowledge about raising birds.

King Jin followed behind the two, listening to the aunt and nephew discussing how to raise birds.

Jiang Changning spoke clearly and logically, King Jin smiled, his little concubine has really read a lot of miscellaneous books.

It's just that this bird was too fragile, it died before returning to the city.

Princess Kangren held back tears, and at Jiang Changning's suggestion, buried the bird in a grove by the lake.

Seeing that she was depressed, Jiang Changning made up a canary story to coax her, "Once upon a time, in a dense forest, there lived many small animals, and the birds were in the air every day."

King Jin, who was following the carriage, laughed dumbfounded when he heard the story she told.

When he got home, King Jin said: "Princess, tigers also eat meat. Tigers will not teach foxes a lesson, but will only eat rabbits with foxes."

"My lord, this is a fairy tale. Fairy tales are for children. Have you ever seen a talking fox?" Jiang Changning said with a sideways glance.

King Jin laughed, "Yes, yes, Xiao Wang has been taught."

"Remember to go to the street tomorrow and buy a bird for Kang Ren." Jiang Changning reminded.

King Jin reached out and hugged Jiang Changning, "Ningning, you will be a good mother in the future."

"That must be done." Jiang Changning said confidently.

"It's really immodest." Jin Wang said with a smile.

"It's the truth, why be humble?"

"Well, it makes sense." King Jin agreed solemnly.

　Note: The origin of the canary is not our country. It was introduced from foreign countries in the [-]th century. This article is empty, as if it has already been introduced.If the plot requires it, please don't overdo it.

　　Why not write about native birds?That's because the author likes canaries and writes according to his preferences, please understand.
