Fourth Master's childhood sweetheart

Chapter 236 Dumplings
When Xili Tong Jia received a letter saying that Yinzhen was coming back on New Year's Eve, she was making dumplings.

"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, why did he deliver the letter at this time?" Tong Jia Xili complained while opening the envelope.

If you just listen to this tone, others will think that it must be Tong Jia Xili who is complaining about Yinzhen.

But only Caiwei, who was making dumplings with Tong Jiaxili, could see it. At this time, Tong Jiaxili's face was full of smiles.

"Si elder brother is coming back, Fujin, you finally have something to do, so you don't have to worry about slaves and A-Jiao all day long. Look, A-Jiao is not energetic enough to play with you these few days gone."

At this time, Gillian was sleeping quietly by the side of the charcoal basin.

In the past few days, Tong Jia Xili always played with A-Jiao, and A-Jiao was so tired that she fell asleep very quickly every day.

Hmm...Actually, to be precise, it should be Gillian playing with Tong Jia Xili.

"What is grinding?" Tong Jia Xili grabbed some flour and wiped it on Caiwei's face.

In an instant, Caiwei's cheeks were whiter than the snow outside.

"That's right. Yinzhen is coming back tomorrow, why don't we have some boiled mutton tonight."

Tong Jia Xili suddenly remembered something important, and said sternly, "Didn't you say there was some unfinished mutton and unused mutton bones last time? Hurry up and eat again tonight."

When Yinzhen comes back... I'm afraid she will be restricted from eating these things again.

Caiwei gave Tong Jia Xili a blank look, and really didn't know what to say.But mutton is for warming the body, and Tong Jiaxi pears are also good for eating, so he can only obey.

Tong Jia Xili was even more happy when she saw the trick succeed.A copper plate was taken out from nowhere, and stuffed into the dumplings as stuffing.

"Fu Jin what are you doing?"

Caiwei couldn't figure it out, so she asked, "What are you adding copper plates to these dumplings for?"

Tong Jia Xili took out the copper dumpling with great satisfaction, held it up in front of Caiwei triumphantly, and said, "That's why you don't understand!"

"In the folk, there is a custom of putting copper coins in dumplings. It is said that when a family eats dumplings together, whoever eats the dumpling with copper coins is the most blessed one."

Speaking of this, Tong Jia Xili has already begun to look forward to what kind of expression Yin Zhen will have when he eats dumplings wrapped in copper plates.

Depressed, but it's hard to say anything to her?Could he just swallow his depression alive?
Tong Jiaxili smiled secretly, not noticing that Caiwei was already looking at Tong Jiaxili with a very helpless look.

The next day is New Year's Eve.

Yinzhen didn't return to elder brother's office until the afternoon.Along the way, when they passed by the palace gate, they deliberately did not allow anyone to report to Tong Jia Xili, in order to give Tong Jia Xili a surprise.

but…

When Yinzhen just walked to the door of elder brother's office, he saw Dong Eshi who was walking outside.

Dong Eshi was wrapped in a thick cloak and dressed thickly.Wearing a fluffy scarf around the neck, the whole person looks chubby.

Originally, she had a plump figure, but now she looked more and more like a ball...

"Fourth brother is back?"

Dong Eshi seemed to be in a good mood. Seeing Yinzhen come back, she even walked up to Yinzhen's side on purpose.

Yinzhen wanted to retreat subconsciously, and also wanted to show his dislike for Dong E's family.But he just stood there quietly, looking at Dong Eshi lightly.

"Sister-in-law three." Yinzhen called out politely, and said, "Sister-in-law three, what's the matter?"

He came back quickly so that he could meet Tong Jia Xili earlier so that he could have a few more words with her, instead of talking nonsense with Dong Eshi at this door.

"It's nothing." Mrs. Dong E smiled and said, "You're not with the fourth sibling, I'm afraid the fourth sibling is very lonely."

These words were so weird that Yinzhen didn't quite understand what Dong E's words meant.

On the contrary... Dong Eshi's movements of protecting his lower abdomen all the time looked a little weird, and he didn't know what was going on.

"If the third sister-in-law is fine, I'll go back." Yinzhen felt impatient, and after saying this, she didn't want to talk to Dong Eshi any more, so she went back to Tong Jiaxili.

Tong Jia Xili was naturally happy to see Yinzhen.

The two hadn't seen each other for a few days, but now when they saw each other, they naturally rushed forward.

The soft embrace made Yinzhen feel extremely comfortable.And Tong Jiaxi's scent of pear-scented hair oil made him less tired by three points.

"I miss you so much." Tong Jia Xili looked at Yinzhen and said a little shyly.Pushing Yinzhen away with her hand, she moved a little away from him.

Just now... the distance between the two of them was too close.While Tong Jia Xili couldn't help being nervous, she felt that she was about to lose her breath.

"I miss you too." Yinzhen said: "Finally, all the affairs with my great-grandmother are finished. When next year is the anniversary of her death, I will be able to take you there with me."

"it is good."

The Empress Dowager passed away and was not buried with Emperor Taizong Huang Taiji.After all, Huang Taiji passed away many years ago, and it would not be good to bury the two together.

Besides... Huang Taiji's beloved was Hai Lanzhu, and the Empress Dowager also had some personal reasons, so she was not buried with Huang Taiji in the end.

"Just now I saw Dong E's outside, and she looked weird. During the few days I was away, she didn't act like a demon, did she?"

Yinzhen directly used the word "being a demon" to describe Dong E's family, and his words have already revealed his dislike for Dong E's family.

Tong Jia Xili's eyebrows drooped slightly, and she said: "It's just that she is pregnant. So what can she do if she shows off her might? She is preventing me before it's too late, I'm afraid she won't have time to be a demon."

When Dong Eshi was just pregnant, all the palaces sent gifts to her.However, those Dong E clans that the Queen and Tong Jia Xili sent over were specially inspected by the imperial physician, which was really disgusting.

"Pregnant?" Yinzhen frowned, and all the previous doubts were resolved.

No wonder, she would say something like loneliness, and she kept protecting her belly.Now it doesn't look like a good thing.

Yinzhen put his hand on Tong Jia Xili's arm, and looked at Tong Jia Xili seriously.

"We will have children in the future. If you are not in poor health now...I..."

He doesn't have to be so restrained.Every time after the intercourse, Tong Jia Xili would drink some soup and medicine, and he was always worried that Tong Jia Xili's body would be damaged, so he was extra careful and restrained.

"It's in broad daylight, what are you talking about?" Tong Jia Xili inevitably showed a bit of shyness, and stopped looking at Yinzhen.

The atmosphere between the husband and wife has not been affected by Dong E's affairs at all.
