Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

The palace was full of joy today, and all the concubines and princesses were getting ready early.

Want to show your face in front of the emperor at the palace banquet, the women in the harem...

"Empress De Fei, your belly is obviously a little bigger." Qiu Yu next to her said while helping her master take care of her clothes.

Today, Concubine De is wearing the same dress that Qingqing sent to the palace two days ago. This dress is very suitable for pregnant women and can perfectly cover the pregnant belly.

And I also like the pomegranate flowers on top of the dough.

"Qingqing's hands are so skillful." Concubine De admired as she looked at herself in the bronze mirror.

Qiu Yu stood behind the empress and nodded repeatedly. The Lord of Anning County is indeed versatile!

At this time, everyone in Lu's mansion was already in front of the mansion, preparing to get in the car. Sister Lu Qingqing sat with Mrs. Lu.

Three or four carriages drove slowly towards the palace.

Today there is an endless flow of carriages in the city, and everyone's face is filled with joy.

The emperor also made a special trip to have fun with the people and pray for the Queen Mother!

In the car, Mrs. Lu kept telling the two sisters to be in high spirits when entering the palace.

"Don't worry, grandma, let Ziyao stay with Tiantian today."

Mrs. Lu was aware of the maids around Qing Qing, and felt relieved a little after hearing this.

On the road in front of the palace gate, the old lady took her family members to a sedan chair and walked toward the inner courtyard of the palace. Today's palace banquet is at the Qianqing Hall.

But she had to take her family members to visit the Queen Mother first.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got off the sedan chair and before they could say anything, they saw the eunuch walking up next to him, leaning over with a smile on his face and saluting Mrs. Lu.

"Mrs. Lu, the Queen Mother has invited you."

She frowned slightly, thinking about letting Qingqing and the others take Liu to Concubine De's palace first.

"Mrs. Lu, Queen Mother, please go with the Lord Anning County."

When Lu Qingqing heard this, she turned to look at her grandmother, "Grandma, Na Qingqing, please accompany you to meet the Queen Mother."

Mrs. Lu's eyes flashed, she nodded lightly, raised her head and said politely to the father-in-law in front of her: "Father-in-law, I would like to explain a few words to my daughter-in-law."

The eunuch stepped aside wisely.

"Jingyi, take your mother-in-law and Tiantian to sit in Concubine De's palace first. Tiantian must not be separated from you."

Ziyao next to her, after the eldest young lady finished her reply, she blessed herself with Mrs. Lu and gave her master a comforting look.

Lu Qingqing felt a little relieved when she saw Ziyao. Today her mother was accompanied by Aunt Wang. She thought that in this palace...

"Please, father-in-law!" Mrs. Lu turned around and shouted when she saw her daughter-in-law and others leaving.

The grandfather and grandson followed the eunuch who led the way and walked straight towards the Queen Mother's palace.

Lu Qingqing looked at the gorgeous palace in front of her and couldn't help complaining that the royal family really lived a luxurious life!

Mrs. Lu coughed lightly to remind her granddaughter.

Lu Qingqing looked at her grandmother and nodded knowingly when she saw her eyes.

In the bedroom, the Queen Mother is sitting on the Arhat couch. Today she is wearing a red brocade palace dress, with the legs of her crystal clear robe falling straight down.

The onion fingers caressing the celadon tea cup are covered with gilt armor inlaid with beads. From a distance, the whole body shows grace and splendor.

The Queen Mother looked at Mrs. Lu and her grandson who came in with a faint smile in her eyes.

"My wife pays her respects to the Queen Mother, and may you be blessed with peace and prosperity."

"An Ning pays homage to the Queen Mother, and may you be blessed with peace and prosperity."

The Queen Mother waved to the palace attendant next to her, and the maid stepped forward to gently support Mrs. Lu.

"Peilan, please get up quickly and come sit down. The Ai family hasn't seen you for a long time, but this time you have finally entered the palace."

Mrs. Lu stood up and was arranged by the maid to sit down next to the Queen Mother.

Lu Qingqing obediently sat next to her grandmother.

"It's my fault that the Empress Dowager is worried about me." Mrs. Lu said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.

How could the Queen Mother not hear her deliberate alienation? She raised the corners of her lips and continued:

"Pellan, you! If you don't show up this time, the Yi family won't even know that our sisters are still..."

Mrs. Lu immediately stood up and leaned towards her, "I am very frightened. There is no way I can disobey the Queen Mother's orders. As long as the Queen Mother wants to see me, she will definitely arrive at any time."

When the Queen Mother heard her words, a dangerous light flashed in her eyes, which quickly dissipated, and she raised her eyebrows with a slight smile on her lips.

"This is An Ning, he is really a lovely person. I heard that he had treated Mei Fei before?"

Lu Qingqing stood up slowly, arguing that the Queen Mother was blessed, "The Queen Mother is so complimentary. It's An Ning who is doing everything in front of the imperial doctor."

"Hehehe... Peilan is so lucky! I didn't expect that my son would be able to bring you such an outstanding grandchild many years later, right?"

Mrs. Lu's face was calm, and then she said that she didn't expect, perhaps even the thief back then, that the Lu family would have such outstanding descendants.

The Queen Mother picked up the tea cup and blew it lightly, her lowered eyes trembled, secretly hating that this bitch was still so annoying.

When she raised her head, the Queen Mother still had a warm smile on her face.

"Peilan, please try it. This is the new Yuqian Longjing this year. The Ai family still remembers that this was your favorite drink in the past."

Mrs. Lu glanced at her granddaughter next to her, and when she saw her picking up the tea cup and taking a sip without any scruples, there was a hint of worry in her eyes.

How come this kid has forgotten everything? Really.

"Grandma, please try it quickly. The tea in the Queen Mother's Palace is really delicious."

As she spoke, she winked playfully at Old Mrs. Lu. Old Mrs. Lu, who knew how to be complacent, also tentatively picked up the tea cup and saw that the smile in the corner of her granddaughter's eyes deepened.

She took a sip with relief.

Seeing this, the smile on the corner of the Queen Mother's lips grew even louder. At this time, Mrs. Lu put down the tea cup and said to the Queen Mother respectfully:

"The Queen Mother, I haven't seen Concubine De for a long time. I would like to..."

Before she could finish her words, the Queen Mother pretended to be angry and said: "Okay, okay, the Ai family knows that Peilan won't be able to sit here long, so go ahead and go."

After receiving the Queen Mother's approval, Mrs. Lu quickly stood up and the grandfather and grandson bowed to the Queen Mother.

"My wife, I would like to thank the Queen Mother. I will take my leave." Seeing the Queen Mother, she smiled helplessly and waved to her.

The grandfather and grandson turned around and left the Queen Mother's palace, and walked directly in the direction of Concubine De's palace.

It wasn't until they were out of the Queen Mother's palace that they breathed a sigh of relief.

"grandmother?"

Lu Qingqing looked at her grandmother's cautious expression and couldn't help but want to ask, but her grandmother stopped her.

"Qingqing, let's go see your aunt first."

Lu Qingqing nodded and responded softly: "Okay!"

When the grandfather and grandson arrived at Concubine De's bedroom, the Liu family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had been waiting there early.
