Graceful spring color

Chapter 271 Role reversal
The clear light fills the small Xuan window.

Xie Fengyue lowered her head and hid the sealed letters one by one in the interlayer of the food box.

This pastry was made by her herself today. It was the bloody hibiscus and jade flower cake that she and Weining fought over in Pei County when they were young.

Xie Fengyue rarely cooks and knows almost nothing about the kitchen.

She learned how to make this jade flower cake because she and Weining got into a bad fight over the cake. One of them had a loose bun, and the other was bitten on the hand and it was bloody.

For this reason, her mother severely punished her for kneeling in the ancestral hall for two days. Her mother had previously asserted that if she could now fight her biological brother for a piece of pastry and bite him until there was no good piece of meat on his hand, she would be able to do it for other things in the future. , took his brother's life.

She was so angry that after kneeling down in the ancestral hall, she went to find the recipe for this pastry. She worked in the kitchen for three days and burned the kitchen six times before making this hibiscus jade flower cake.

After it was made, she never ate it once.

The coldness in Xie Fengyue's eyes flashed away, and her mother's words actually came true.

In these letters, Xie Fengyue imitated Wei Ning's notes and told Prince Zhou everything about his life experience and Beiyuan's marriage.

In her letter, she also vaguely mentioned the reason why he took refuge with Prince Zhou. Taifu Xie valued Xie Jin, and no matter what he did, Taifu Xie looked down on him, so he wanted to take risks to support the orthodoxy.

In this regard, Xie Fengyue actually did not tell lies. No matter how much Xie Wuwei expressed love for Wei Ning on the surface, it was all a lie. If he had a trace of sincerity towards Weining, he would not put him in such danger. Otherwise, why Xie Jin never appeared in Shengjing?
After Xie Fengyue finished all this, he casually discarded Prince Zhou's seal on the table.

She should really thank the Zhou royal family for their self-esteem. Now, in order to prove to the world that they are the first noble in Qian'an, the Zhou royal family stamps a private seal on the replies to other nobles' letters, which probably means "read" , if she didn’t have such a habit, it would be difficult for her to imitate the two people’s notes.

Xie Fengyue was in a good mood and slept particularly soundly.

Early the next morning, when Xie Fengyue woke up refreshed, You Heng had already prepared a homecoming ceremony and was waiting outside.

After the two had breakfast, they got into the carriage and headed to Xie's Mansion.

You Heng looked at the simple food box Xie Fengyue was carrying and couldn't help but be curious: "Is Madam not full?"

After getting in touch with him in the past few days, Xie Fengyue has lost her previous resistance to You Heng. She smiled and said, "This is a pastry made for my brother."

As soon as You Heng heard about his brother, he knew which brother it was, but he pretended to be helpless in his heart: "Actually... I didn't eat much for breakfast today."

The implication of this is that I want to eat this pastry.

Xie Fengyue frowned.

This is not possible. She has only made six pieces in total. This pastry is just a cover. Her focus is on this box. This box was found in the warehouse of the Princess's Mansion. Let's not ignore the jewelry inlaid on the food box above. .

The box itself is made of sandalwood. The wood is hard, the texture is clear, and it also exudes a light woody fragrance. On the lid of the box, there are complicated patterns of dragons and phoenixes carved, and next to them are circles of gladioli flowers. The lines are smooth and lifelike, as if dragons and phoenixes are soaring in the sea of ​​flowers.

This thing is simply reproduced one-to-one according to Wei Ning's preferences. Whenever Wei Ning receives it, he will definitely place it in a place where he can often see it, such as a study or a bedroom.

If You Heng eats this pastry, can she just send a box over? With Weining's understanding of her, he still had to unpack this box ten or eight times.

So what will the people sent by Concubine Yu be looking for?
Xie Fengyue silently moved the food box back, pretending that she didn't understand what You Heng said.

Seeing this, You Heng felt a little angry. He had a flash of inspiration, frowned, held his stomach and wailed lowly.

Xie Fengyue's eyebrows furrowed even more tightly. How could You Heng's health be so bad? Wouldn't he be like a dragster along the way?
"What's wrong with you?" You Heng's face turned a little pale, he raised his wet eyes and looked at Xie Fengyue, and said with a forced smile: "I've always had a problem, my stomach hurts when I'm hungry."

Xie Fengyue sighed, took out a piece of pastry from the food box, wrapped it in a handkerchief and gave it to him.

You Heng's face suddenly blossomed into a big smile, as if the sky had cleared up after the rain.

Xie Fengyue was too lazy to look at him anymore, lifted the corner of the car curtain and looked out the window.

After a while, You Heng's low lamenting voice sounded again.

Xie Fengyue took a deep breath, opened the food box again, and took out another piece of pastry: "This is the last piece. If you like to wait until Yongning, I will make it for you. You can't have it now."

You Heng nodded pitifully, as if Xie Fengyue had wronged him.

Xie Fengyue: "Inexplicable!"

We arrived at Xie's Mansion in silence all the way. At this time, there were only a few people in front of the door.

The most conspicuous among them are Mrs. Xie and Xie Fengyu.

According to the ancestral system, today is the day when the daughter of the family dies. Even if Taifu Xie has something to do and cannot come, he will send his attendants to wait here.

"Xu~Xu"

The coachman stopped the carriage steadily in front of several people.

As soon as Xie Fengyue got off the carriage, Xie Fengyu ran over with her skirt in hand and shouted affectionately: "Sister Yue!"

Xie Fengyue responded with a smile and asked softly in her ear: "Did you ask your mother to come here?"

Xie Fengyu's face turned red and he quickly explained: "A lot of my father's disciples came to the house today. He is too busy right now, so he didn't come to pick you up. Don't think too much about it."

Xie Fengyue smiled noncommittally and continued to ask: "Master Wei is here too?"

"How do you know? He was the one who brought the two carriages here. He really doesn't know how to pick a day. Could it be that he didn't know that today is my sister's return day? He still burdened my father with his official duties."

"Stop talking about this, look at the carriage behind. I have brought you a lot of fabrics. You go and pick the ones you like first, don't be cheap Xie Rui." Xie Fengyue squeezed her hand and changed the subject.

This small episode did not affect Xie Fengyue's mood. Maybe other married women would be affected by this kind of power from their parents, but Xie Fengyue was not among them. Not only did she finish the meal with a smile, but she was also in the same mood as Xie Fengyue. The lady tried to argue a few words, and occasionally responded with a few taunts from Xie Rui, as if it was tickling her.

After finishing the meal, Mrs. Xie had nothing to talk to Xie Fengyue, and Xie Fengyue was free immediately.

Xie Fengyu was afraid that Xie Fengyue would feel aggrieved because of this and wanted to accompany her, but Xie Fengyue fooled her into leaving with just a few words.

Xie Fengyu was fooled into leaving, but You Heng stuck to it like a dog-skin plaster.

"Where are you going, madam? I'm not familiar with the place in Xie Mansion. I'm a little scared." You Heng leaned towards her and mumbled weakly.

"Aunt Zhao just said something about me. She also said I was ugly... I'm afraid other people in your house would say the same thing about me." You Heng became more and more aggrieved as he spoke, with tears in his eyes.
