After crossing the mother's handbook

Chapter 167

In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival is here, and Donglu's Spring Festival is still somewhat different from the modern one.There is no killing time in the cinema, and there is no gathering between good girlfriends.

However, in previous years, the Xiahou Mansion would go to Huazhu with the whole family to celebrate the New Year together.And because the prince wanted to accept a concubine this year, he stayed in Huadu.

Early in the morning, the sky is not yet bright.Xiahou Huaiyu and his younger sister Huaijin changed into new clothes, rubbed their hands and stood outside the courtyard of Ziluan Pavilion.

When Nanny Qin opened the courtyard door, the two little children in red festive clothes knelt on the cotton mats that had been prepared, and kowtowed politely: "Father, mother. Yu'er and younger sister Jin'er Come to please the two of you for the early years."

Nanny Qin hurriedly helped the two young masters up, took out two things wrapped in red paper from her sleeves, put them in the hands of the two children, and smiled lovingly:
"This is just a wish from Mammy. The two young masters have taken care of it. I hope you two will grow taller this year, and your homework will be recognized by the master."

The two little children weighed the red envelope in their hands and found that it was quite heavy.The two of them were overjoyed, and said happily, "Thank you, Mother Qin."

Due to her young age, Xia Hou Huaijin looked more lively. She put away the red envelope, moved to Mother Qin's side, and gave her a deep kiss on the face.

Mother Qin couldn't mention how happy she was, she pulled one hand and said: "Madam is dressing up, she is afraid that you will catch cold outside. So, when you two go in later, sit on the side obediently, and don't worry about it." Don't disturb Madam."

"Don't worry, mother, we will be good." Xiahou Huaiyu answered with a warm heart.

His own mother was like this when he was a child.But after his mother passed away, every year when he and his sister came to invite him, his father would make them wait outside for a long time.

Xiahou Huaiyu really didn't dare to think that this year she doesn't need to be outside in the cold.He looked down at the outfit on his body, with a little embarrassment on his round face.

Seeing the look on his face, Nanny Qin quickened her pace and brought the two children into the house.

In the master bedroom of Ziluan Pavilion, there is an incense burner in the middle of the earth, and the charcoal fire in the burner is red, making the room warm.

Fu Yunzhi only wore an undershirt, and sat in front of the dressing table, letting Zhuqing behind her be busy for her.

Xia Houzhen had already dressed, he sat quietly drinking tea, and personally experienced what it means to say "women are trouble".

Nanny Qin hurried in, stood behind Fu Yunzhi and said respectfully: "Madam, this old servant has arranged the two young masters in the front hall according to your instructions."

After saying that, she began to match Fu Yunzhi with a beautiful headdress.

Fu Yunzhi in the bronze mirror smiled. She held up the earrings in the jewelry box and compared them in her hands.

"Mommy, I'll just come here by myself. I have a set of clothes for the two children in my closet. You can take them and change into them!"

Hearing this, Xia Houzhen frowned and said: "The two children are already wearing new clothes, why do they need to change?" He was wearing a dark purple brocade robe, with auspicious clouds embroidered with gold thread on the neckline and cuffs.

The clothes that Fu Yunzhi will wear today are also very distinctive. It is also a purple jacket and skirt, but the color is extremely light.

But there was also a cloak trimmed with white fox fur on the shelf beside it, it was a purple color similar to Xiahou Ting's, with auspicious clouds and butterflies embroidered on the back.

Nanny Qin was stunned on the ground, not knowing which side to listen to.

Fu Yunzhi smiled mysteriously, put the selected earrings on his ears, and said: "In addition to being the New Year, it is also a day of great joy for His Royal Highness the Second Prince. Therefore, in addition to wearing new clothes, you must also dress up beautifully."

At this point, she smiled and looked at Mother Qin and said, "After getting the two children to change into new clothes, bring them here."

Qin Nanny smiled with relief on her face, saluted politely, and replied: "The old servant will go now, madam, please wait a moment."

Fu Yunzhi waved his hand and began to match himself with a headdress, exchanging ideas with Zhuqing from time to time: "Does this look good?" She was holding a purple butterfly hairpin in her hand.

Zhu Qing took it, placed it on her head and gestured, shook her head and said, "It's not very pretty!"

"Hey, you told me to patronize the new clothes, but I didn't even look through my headgear." Fu Yunzhi looked helpless, and she looked through the jewelry box again.

Xia Houzhen was so bored, he got up and walked over.Through the bronze mirror, looking affectionately.Thin lips parted lightly and said: "What about our original order, why don't you see you wearing it?"

After such a reminder, Fu Yunzhi suddenly thought of something.Unable to hide her excitement, she slapped the table heavily, startling the two people beside her.

Fu Yunzhi said happily: "That's right, why did you forget that golden hairpin.

The carved purple luan gold hairpin doesn't go well with this dress. "Then, she looked at Xia Houzhen and praised: "My husband-in-law is really amazing, he solved the concubine's confusion all at once. "

"Hmph!" Xia Houtian snorted softly, "Zhuqing, since your master praises me so well, why don't you hurry up and put it on for her?"

"Yes, yes, my servant's eyesight is poor, so I will look for it for my aunt." Zhu Qing couldn't hide a smile, she bent her body, turned around and went to the place where the big wooden cabinet was placed.

With a smile on his lips, Xia Houzhen looked at the person in the bronze mirror and then at the person in front of him, and praised sincerely: "My eyesight is naturally beautiful, otherwise how could I marry a girl among thousands of girls? I got you one."

"Stop being so talkative." Fu Yunzhi couldn't laugh or cry, with suspicious blushes on his face.

Keeping the shyness on her face under her eyes, Xia Houtian smiled lightly, put her arms around Fu Yunzhi's waist, and hugged her in her arms.

Fu Yunzhi felt her face was burning hot, she lowered her head, and was afraid that Nanny Qin would suddenly come in with two children, so she hurriedly raised her head, pushed his arm and said, "Don't do this, it's not good for people to see. "

"What's wrong, we are husband and wife." Xia Houtian said without thinking. "Furthermore, even if they saw it, whoever had the guts to say it would have to bow their heads obediently."

When Fu Yunzhi heard this, the temperature on his face felt even hotter.Thinking of what happened just now, she looked up into the other's eyes and said:

"Do you know why I insisted on changing the two children into new clothes just now?"

Xia Houzhen paused, then shook her head honestly: "Although I don't know why, I think there must be your reason for this."

After the words fell, he looked willing to listen to the details on his face.

Fu Yunzhi's clear eyes flashed, and he looked serious: "Ever since I knew our ancestors still passed down this kind of thing, I thought about it for the two of them early in the morning.

The two children have to kneel at the door so early to invite their parents, and they have to kneel until we have finished washing before calling them in.

I'm not saying that this tradition is bad or anything, I just think that children are our own flesh and blood, and if they get sick, it's us who feel sorry for them. "

Xia Houzhen frowned when she heard this: "Didn't you let them in?" He really couldn't think for a moment that this had anything to do with changing clothes.

"It's so cold outside, the child is standing in such a cold weather, in order to protect against the cold, girls and women must pick up the thickest clothes for them.

Today is the New Year, and we cannot ignore the feelings of the children.That's why I prepared nice and warm clothes.

The family law of our ancestors cannot be forgotten, but we still have to figure out how to do it ourselves. "

What Fu Yunzhi said again fell heavily on Xia Houzhen's heart every single word.

He suddenly realized, bent down and squatted beside Fu Yunzhi, his deep black eyes were full of gratitude:

"At this moment, I realized why the Queen Mother must give me a marriage. Our men's thoughts are not as careful as your women's!"

After sighing, the guilt towards the two children remained in my heart.If Fu Yunzhi hadn't mentioned it, he probably wouldn't have thought of it in his life, right?
Thinking about it now, at the beginning, when Yuehua was alive, she seemed to do the same.That kid Huaiyu must have done a comparison in his heart.

And in the face of his serious father, his fragile heart probably dare not speak out, right?

Fu Yunzhi was about to be proud, when she suddenly thought of something, her face froze and she hurriedly said, "Hey, I didn't do this to claim credit from you."

"I know, you are doing everything for the children. So when the two of them see you, they are almost more respectful than when they see me as a real father." The smile on Xia Houtian's face was very bright.

Fu Yunzhi lowered his head, hid the smile on his lips, and said softly, "You're here again."

Immediately, she glanced at Zhuqing who was covering her eyes, recalling someone's bold words just now, her cheeks felt a little hot again.

Xia Houtian smiled and narrowed his eyes. He looked at the sky outside the window in a happy mood, and let go of the little woman in his arms.

Immediately after waving her hand back, she saw Zhu Qing approaching obediently with her head down.If you look closely, you can still see a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Girl, the hairpin you want." Zhuqing handed over the hairpin respectfully, and said, "Let this servant bring it to you."

Unexpectedly, she just took a step forward, and the hairpin in her hand was taken by Xia Houzhen.

Zhuqing's face froze, not understanding what it meant.

Xia Houzhen's face was extremely cold, and she said indifferently: "I will bring it for your wife myself." In his words, the word "Madam" was very important.

Immediately, Zhuqing also received an unfriendly look, and there was a hint of threat in it.Her young heart quickly understood something, and she responded obediently: "Yes."

Fu Yunzhi didn't know what was wrong, she always felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right, she looked up and found nothing unusual.

When the golden hairpin is inserted into the bun, a kind of self-evident noble temperament is revealed instantly.

Xia Houzhen looked at it, then looked at the other ornaments in the jewelry box, and then took two small butterfly hairpins and pinned them to it. At the end of the bun, there was a large string of glazed beads and tassels.

Fu Yunzhi looked at himself in the mirror in disbelief, tried hard to hold back the urge to laugh, and joked: "You dress me up so beautifully, be careful not to be snatched away by other men."
