Glory all the way

Chapter 277 Full Moon
June day, baby face, when I woke up early, the sky was gray, and it looked like it was going to rain, but after a while, the cloud cleared, the sun rose, and the golden light spread all over the earth. The world was really warm and clear.

Bai Xiu hugged the little stone and paced around the room. After a while, the little guy fell asleep in a daze. Bai Xiu conveniently put the little stone on the cradle beside her, took it from Bai Yingluo's arms, and coaxed her. stand up.

It was already bustling with gongs and drums outside.

Du Xuan took a one-day leave, and went straight to the front yard after getting up early. Before noon, guests came in droves, and some of them came uninvited. I thought they came because they felt that Du Xuan was in the limelight and wanted to take advantage of it. This opportunity to make friends with Du Xuan.

Those who come are guests, not to mention, now that Du Xuan has a son who is full of everything, he can talk better than before, there is no one who is not warmly greeted, who comes and goes, the banquet hall is very lively.

The old master Bai and the old lady Bai only came around noon. After entering the main room of Yixin Garden and sitting there for a while, they got up and went back, which made Bai Yingluo feel extremely guilty.

Among the few girls married in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, even the eldest granddaughter Bai Yingping gave birth to a child. The old lady Bai just sent Zhao's mother to visit. Now, when it came to her, Bai Yingluo felt that Grandfather and grandmother really favored her, and they couldn't blame Bai Yingqiao and Bai Yingyun for their frequent quarrels.

The day when Jia's labor was just a few days away, Xue didn't dare to go too far away, so he sent someone from Wang Hui's family to say hello, gave a full moon gift, and then drove away with Mrs. Bai's car.

At this moment, apart from Bai Yingping and sisters, the only ones staying in Yixin Garden are the wives of Du Xuan's former colleagues.

Bai Yingping has the demeanor of an elder sister, knowing that there is no one in charge in the Zhuangyuan Mansion, she went in and talked to Bai Yingluo for a while, and then helped her entertain the wives who came to congratulate her.

The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an, and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Yan family, a university scholar, Bai Yingping came forward, and the wives who came and went did not feel that they were being treated lightly, and there were several wives who had good friends with Bai Yingluo from the side. , there was a sense of harmony everywhere, without the slightest desertion that Bai Yingluo worried about.

As noon approached, Bai Yingluo had already dressed in the inner room, and she came out to greet the wives to go to the big flower hall.

As soon as he was seated, he heard another commotion outside the gate, and then the steward came in to announce that the reward from the palace had arrived.

The ladies were amazed again.

On the day of Xisan, Gu Changfu, the chief eunuch of Ninghua Palace, came to Zhuangyuan Mansion in person, and delivered not only the congratulatory gifts from the Empress Dowager, but also the congratulatory gifts from the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince's side concubine, which was enough for Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo. face.

This full moon ceremony, the royal family has added another stroke, and the limelight of the Zhuangyuan Mansion has never been second-to-none.

The men are working hard outside, and the female relatives naturally have to help out behind them. Seeing Bai Yingluo quickly go back to the house, change clothes and go to the front yard to thank her, the wives in the big flower hall are all talking among themselves, and some people are alone in their hearts. Thinking about whether to take advantage of holding some kind of flower viewing party or birthday, and walk around more with Bai Yingluo.

The person who came was still Gu Changfu.

Bai Yingluo walked up to Du Xuan and stood still, Gu Changfu said in a soft voice with a smile: "Lord Du, Mrs. Du, it can be seen that our family has a lot of fate with the Zhuangyuan Mansion, and our family came here under orders to announce the rewards several times. "

After a few compliments, Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo turned their faces away one after another. Gu Changfu flicked his fly whisk and raised his voice to preach: "The Du family is happy to add Lin'er, and the empress ordered him to give you a hundred taels of gold. Two pairs of tiger shoes."

After Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo kowtowed their heads to thank them, Gu Changfu waved behind him, and twelve servants carried them into six mahogany-carved boxes and placed them in the open space in the front yard. They took the gift list from the tray and handed it to Bai Yingluo with both hands. Yingluo, Gu Changfu's smile became softer, "Mrs. Du, this is a congratulatory gift from the sixth princess who married Da'an to the young master, please keep it."

The thick gift list is the same as before, but thinking that the sixth princess deliberately made this face for herself on this day, Bai Yingluo's eyes filled with tears.

"The concubine thanked the empress empress, and thanked the sixth princess. The empress is a thousand years old, and the princess is a thousand years old."

Kowtowing again to thank you, Bai Yingluo got up and handed the gift list to Liu Su, took the money bag with silver bills from Chen Xiang, and handed it to Gu Changfu.

After seeing off Gu Changfu and the others, Bai Yingluo returned to the big flower hall in the backyard. Before she could sit down, she saw the housekeeper running over with a happy face, saying that the congratulatory gift from the East Palace had arrived.

The sound of envy and inhalation around her was endless, Bai Yingluo nodded and smiled at the ladies apologetically, and left the big flower hall again.

The servant next to the crown prince of the Eastern Palace came, read the prince's oral order, and presented congratulatory gifts, Du Xuan greeted the servant and went to the living room to drink tea.

Along with them, there was also the servant girl next to Lin Zhimei.

After a few words of congratulations with a lot of smiles, the palace maid said softly: "Madam Du, Concubine Lin said, when you are out of confinement, bring the little prince into the palace to show her, so that you can get closer to the little prince. "

Although it was a few ordinary words, Bai Yingluo heard something different. She took another look at the palace maid, and Bai Yingluo nodded seriously, "I understand that in a few days, I will definitely hand over the sign and enter the palace. Greetings from the East Palace."

When Bai Yingluo returned to the big flower hall, what happened in the front yard had already been reported.

Seeing that Du Xuan fell into the eyes of Emperor Jiayuan and the Crown Prince, and that Bai Yingluo was deeply loved by the Empress, Sixth Princess and Concubine Lin, everyone looked at Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo with deeper eyes, not daring to treat them as slowly as before. up.

Bai Yingqiao, who was sitting in the corner of the crowd, felt extremely uncomfortable.

Thinking that before coming here, Bai Yingyun had asked her to listen more and watch more, and then tell her what happened here, Bai Yingqiao curled her lips, and decided to keep it a secret, otherwise, with Bai Yingyun's temperament, she would have to I was so upset that I couldn't eat for a few days.

After a busy day and seeing off the guests, Bai Yingluo felt sore and limp all over. After taking a bath, she lazily lay on the bed.

Seeing this, Liu Su and Liu Ying kneaded Bai Yingluo's back and legs while standing and squatting beside the bed.

When Du Xuan came out of the shower, he heard Bai Yingluo let out a long and comfortable sigh.

Smiling and waving his hands, signaling Liusu and the others to go down, Du Xuan sat by the window, gently massaged Bai Yingluo with his hands.

When it came to the daytime events, both of them were quite emotional.

"The prince sent his servant here to tell me in advance that there will be foreign envoys coming to Beijing in July. After the busy work, it will probably be the Chinese New Year. After the Chinese New Year, he wants to transfer me to the household department and ask me if I would like to."

Du Xuan said softly.

"Household?"

Looking up at Du Xuan, Bai Yingluo's eyes lit up.

The Household Department is in charge of the country's territory, land, household registration, taxes, salaries and all financial matters. It can be said that it is the most lucrative among the six departments. It is clearly stated that Du Xuan will be transferred to the household department to practice for a few years, which shows that it is a win over Du Xuan.

"Then what do you think?"

Bai Yingluo cared more about Du Xuan's thoughts than the prince's wishes.

Du Xuan pondered: "If I can go to the household department to do some practical things, I'm naturally happy, but after being named on the gold list, I feel that all this is too smooth, and it always makes me feel a little uneasy. Things will go against each other. I think this matter It needs to be discussed in the long run. So, in a few days, I will go back to the Hou Mansion and talk to the old man and uncle, and see what they say."

Du Xuan was not proud of this, Bai Yingluo was somewhat expected to be happy, thinking that her grandfather and uncle would be very happy knowing that Du Xuan was so valued by the prince, Bai Yingluo couldn't help but feel a little complacent.

"At that time, grandfather will definitely say, Sister Luo, grandfather has a good vision, right? He has picked you a good husband-in-law who will rise to the top."

Touching her chin as if stroking her beard, and imitating her grandfather Bai, Bai Yingluo laughed happily, and the joy in her eyes was revealed along the corners of her eyes and brows, making her even more dazzling .

Du Xuan watched with an even bigger smile on his face.

Unable to help, Du Xuan felt that the temperature in the room seemed to be a little hotter than before.

"Mother Luo..."

With a soft call, Du Xuan reached out and took Bai Yingluo into his arms.

I could vaguely hear the nurse humming nursery rhymes to lull my brother to sleep, Bai Yingluo pushed Du Xuan anxiously, with a coquettish expression on her face.

"Luo Niang, don't you miss me?"

Du Xuan lowered his voice, leaned close to Bai Yingluo's ear and bewitched.

The breath was messy, and Bai Yingluo's eyes flickered for a moment, but she still had some scruples after all, so she quickly kissed him on the lips, as if to make up for it, a superficial touch, fleeting.

Before Du Xuan could make another move, Bai Yingluo quickly threw off the quilt and got out of bed.

When she was a few steps away from the bed, she turned her head and gave him a comforting smile, as if she was afraid that he would get angry.

Du Xuan laughed, while pointing to the teapot on the table, motioning for Bai Yingluo to pour tea for him.

Afraid that this was his trick, Bai Yingluo hesitated, looked at Du Xuan suspiciously, as if asking "You really just want to drink tea"?
Du Xuan shook his head helplessly and smiled wryly, and lifted the quilt as if trying to get up.

Only then did Bai Yingluo pour the tea, and brought it to him with a flattering expression.

Before he took a sip of water, he heard brother Yan crying at the top of his throat.

The nurse coaxed softly, but Brother Yan's voice was intermittent.

After a while, the wet nurse came into the room with the baby in her arms, "Ma'am, the young master refuses to eat."

Since he was born, Bai Yingluo has been feeding Yan Ge's children. Only when he wakes up from crying in the middle of the night is the wet nurse taking care of him. Even so, the number of times is only a handful.

It's only been a month, but the son can clearly distinguish whether it's mother's milk or not, which makes Bai Yingluo feel complacent.

After receiving the swaddling baby, Bai Yingluo nodded, and the wet nurse exited the inner room in a polite manner.

Bai Yingluo turned over and walked to the bed, carried Du Xuan on her back, unbuttoned the front of her clothes and fed them to Brother Yan.

Seeing her son closing his eyes comfortably, but swallowing hard with his small mouth, Bai Yingluo felt indescribably satisfied.

At some point, Du Xuan poked his head out from behind Bai Yingluo's shoulder, seeing his son's food was delicious, Du Xuan smiled, and whispered something in Bai Yingluo's ear.

In just a moment, Bai Yingluo's face was covered with red clouds.

The pretty face of his lovely wife was flushed, and his son was fat and healthy. Looking at the scene in front of him, Du Xuan laughed comfortably.
