Chapter 204 Laba
On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, at the end of the ugly time and the beginning of the Yin time, the servants in Xu's kitchen had already gotten up to cook Laba porridge.

When Dong Shuyin got up at the end of the day, the Laba porridge in the big kitchen was almost ready. Originally, she was going to do it herself, but she slept late last night and didn't get up this morning.

It would be too late to start cooking, so Dong Shu could only quickly use the ingredients prepared by the servants to steam some cakes and save them to eat with Laba porridge later.

After the cakes were steamed in the pot, Dong Shu hurriedly took out small plates and prepared several appetizers.

"Okay, get ready to deliver some to the old lady first. There are also Laba porridge to be delivered by each mansion, remember to be safe. When delivering porridge to the fifth prince's mansion, remember to bring some snacks." Facing the big kitchen After the servants finished talking, Dong Shu paused and continued: "I'll go change first, and later I'll take the girl to the old lady's yard for breakfast, and send the girl's and me's portion together."

Dong Shu didn't forget to go outside while talking, and when she reached the kitchen door, she turned sideways and whispered to Wang Shi behind her: "Later, you will personally prepare a meal and send it to Yanzhu's yard. Don't disturb the people in the house, Wen is there, and when he wakes up, let the servant who stayed there send him in."

Dong Shu's observation of the Wang family this year, coupled with the fact that the eldest son of the Wang family is already Xu Shiqiu's personal soldier, and her man Zhang Ershan desperately saved her last time, has now become her confidant.

It is inconvenient for Dong Shu to ask Nanny Yan to do these things, and it is usually done by Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang is not impatient at all about these things, not only remembering Dong Shu's orders firmly, but also doing them bit by bit with extra care.

After Dong Shu washed up and changed into clean and fresh clothes, Yuan Xi also woke up and the nanny changed the diaper and scrubbed it clean.

Seeing Yuan Xi, Dong Shu first kissed her pink face, and then said to her: "Today, the big kitchen not only prepared a big pot of Laba porridge, but also specially cooked white rice for you. Porridge. Later, grandma and mother will eat Laba porridge, and you will eat white rice porridge." After saying this to Yuan Xi, Dong Shu kissed Yuan Xi on the cheek again.

Yuan Xi was still a little distracted at first, but Dong Shu kissed her twice in a row. She immediately regained her senses, raised her braided head, and kissed Dong Shu on the cheek as well.

Because of Yuan Xi's action, Dong Shu's mood improved a lot this morning because her husband was not at home.

When she came to the main courtyard with Yuan Xi, Mrs. Xu washed up and waited in the dining hall under the service of the maids.

After such a long time on Yuan Xi, she had completely regained her senses. When she saw Mrs. Xu, she excitedly waved her fat arms, which were not as sensitive as in autumn, to greet Mrs. Xu.

Seeing Yuan Xi's lively appearance despite wearing a lot of clothes, Mrs. Xu looked at the two of them with a smile on her face and said, "The longer Yuan Xi is in our family, the better. When she turns one year old, I will We must invite relatives and friends to hold a Zhouzhou feast for her."

The old lady Xu said this because Yuan Xi was born in Xiahe Village before, and the full moon was not a big event. If things go well at the end of the year, their Xu family will definitely hold a banquet to connect with relatives and friends after the year.

Dong Shu didn't care so much, but when she heard her mother-in-law praising Yuan Xi, she immediately smiled.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law happily ate the Laba porridge in the sound of "Yi Yi Ya Ya Ya" on Yuanxi. Although Xu Shiqiu was not at home, because today is a festive day, they did not mention those things that would make people sad.

The three generations of grandparents had just finished their breakfast when they heard the concierge come to report that the annual gift for the fifth prince's mansion had been delivered.

The moment the maidservant's voice fell, Xu Nuanwen didn't wait for the transmission at all, and directly led Ye Xuan into the main courtyard of Mrs. Xu.

"Mother, Xianggong and Brother Huan are going to the palace to thank you, but our mother and I rushed over after eating Laba porridge." After saying this, Xu Nuanwen hurriedly strode towards Yuan Xi, ignoring Yuan Xi's struggle, Snatching Yuan Xi from Dong Shu's arms, kissed her twice, leaving two lip marks on Yuan Xi's face, then looked at Mrs. Xu and continued: "The cakes sent by my family this morning are not bad. My brother ate two yuan and I didn't let him continue to eat, I guessed that the cake was probably made by my younger brother and sister."

Dong Shu was stunned when her aunt robbed Yuan Xi, until she heard Yuan Xi's displeased hum, she came back to coax Yuan Xi, looked at Yuan Xi whose braid had become crooked, Then he said to Xu Nuanwen: "I thought that today's Laba porridge is mostly sweet, so I made two kinds of salty pastries. Since Brother Xuan likes this kind of taste, I will ask someone to make Fang Write it down and bring it back to my sister."

After saying this to Xu Nuanwen, Dong Shu looked aside Ye Xuan, whose cheeks were a little red because of his mother's words, and said, "It's a good thing that Brother Xuan likes to eat cakes made by Aunt San, and you just want more now." Eat something to strengthen your body, and tell the third aunt directly what you like to eat in the future. Come here, just like my own family, you can't be polite."

Xu Nuanwen likes to hear Dong Shu say these words, she can feel Dong Shu's sincerity when she said these words, and knows that these words she said are definitely not lies to make her happy.

"Brother Xuan, remember, if we really don't have any food for you in the future, you will come to your grandmother's house and be the son of your third aunt. I guarantee you will have delicious food every day."

Xu Nuanwen's words seemed to be teasing her son who loves to eat Dong Shu's food, but the old lady Xu could still feel a trace of her uneasiness from her words.

There seems to be a trace of a lonely feeling.

Thinking that if things don't go well at the end of the year, maybe they will be able to take Brother Xuan away by then at the most, Old Madam Xu couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Because of this, Old Madam Xu immediately thought that Yan Ye was staying in Yanzhu's yard.

After the old lady Xu paused, she looked at Dong Shu and Ye Xuan and said, "Brother Xuan, don't listen to your mother's nonsense, she deliberately made fun of you. But your mother's words are not wrong. With half the blood of the Xu family, whenever you come to the Xu family, you will have a bowl of rice."

Ye Xuan didn't notice that much, but after hearing what Mrs. Xu said, he still nodded seriously.

Xu Nuanwen, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Mrs. Xu's words.

She had already discussed with Ye Jingxing and the eldest son, if something really happened at that time, then let Brother Xuan leave the capital with her natal family, even if she became an ordinary person from now on, it would be better than staying in the capital and watching them have an accident.

Just when Xu Nuanwen was in a trance, Ye Xuan's voice rang again.

"The Laba porridge at home this morning is too sweet. It is really delicious when paired with the salty pastries made by my third aunt. Not only me, but also my father and elder brother have eaten a lot." Ye Xuan is not like his elder brother and second brother Knowing many things, he only treats his grandmother and mother as talking about food.

But as soon as Ye Xuan finished speaking, Xu Nuanwen snorted coldly at him and said, "The Laba porridge we ate a few bites this morning was cooked by your mother and me, and you actually said it was too sweet?"

Ye Xuan didn't expect that the Laba porridge he ate this morning was cooked by his mother. Hearing what his mother said, he was suddenly embarrassed and didn't know what to do.

Seeing Ye Xuan's embarrassment, Mrs. Xu quickly reprimanded Xu Nuanwen.

They said a few more words, and when Ye Jingxing came with Ye Huan, Mrs. Xu looked at Dong Shu and said, "I look at Yuan Xi and seem to want to go out, you take Yuan Xi and Brother Xuan back to play for a while. It's warm in your place, and there are wolf fur carpets, it won't freeze us Yuanxi and Brother Xuan."

Dong Shu felt that her mother-in-law was deliberately sending her away, but she thought that Ye Xuan really shouldn't know these things, so she didn't say anything, but nodded immediately, and brought Yuan Xi and Ye Xuan who were really not willing to stay here any longer. Time Huanyuan.

After Dong Shu took Yuan Xi and Ye Xuan away, the old lady Xu looked at Ye Jingche, Xu Nuanwen and Ye Huan and said, "Yan Ye rushed to the capital city in the dark last night, and I saw him as if he was hurrying over here." Yes, I asked him to rest in the yard before Yanzhu, and I guess it should happen, let's go and have a look together."

As soon as Mrs. Xu said that Yan Ye had arrived in the capital last night, Ye Jingxing, Xu Nuanwen, and Ye Huan immediately looked at each other.

They are not stupid, since Yan Ye can hurry to the capital, there must be something important.

If it had something to do with Yan Zhu, the old lady Xu would not have kept Dong Shu from her mind, but now that she was keeping it from her, she must be trying to keep it from her.

The old lady Xu didn't explain much all the way, until she came to the gate of Yanzhu's yard, she said softly: "It's about Ye Jingche's plan to do something at the end of the year. Specifically, you can listen to Yan Ye."

After Mrs. Xu's words fell, Ye Jingxing and the three of them stopped immediately.
