extravagant big and square

Lord, you have a noble status, and there is absolutely no reason to stick to it—not to mention the emperor would not agree.I am a small family member of the Tang family, and I know that I cannot compare to the royal family and nobles..."

"Madam Tang means: I want to use this to make peace with Tang Huoqi?" Sima Ji sneered, "It's just a peace. If I really want to do this, why bother so much trouble! It seems that Madam Tang is so speculative It is really chilling to misunderstand Bengong's intentions! Since Mrs. Tang dislikes Bengong so much, she must also hate Yu Xu! Anyway, this time it is Bengong asking for trouble!"

After saying that, no one could react, Sima Ji, with Dongmei supporting his head, stepped out of the Tang Mansion without looking back, and walked away in a sedan chair.

Seeing Sima Ji leaving like this, Tang He was stunned, unable to figure out what she meant by "hate Yu Xu" for a moment.

Although Jiangnan is not as vast as the northern region and the folk customs are bold, it is still an exquisite and unique place.

It has been four days since Sima Ji came back from the capital, and the news of Tang Huoqi's disappearance has spread like wildfire.All of a sudden, everyone tacitly linked this matter with Sima Ji—who made the conflict between the two of them before everyone see it.

All of a sudden, those gossips, even if they were groundless, were all said with certainty, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.

The so-called three people becoming a tiger is terrifying in this place.

It's just that within two days, a bigger news came out - the third princess was pregnant!

Unlike before, this time there was no such pretentious fabrications, it was actually very quiet.

After all, it's about people's innocence, no one can just say that Sima Ji stole a man behind Tang Huoqi's back!Coupled with the influence of the Tang family and the prestige of the royal family, this matter was not mentioned by anyone as if everyone did not know it.

Sima Ji didn't hide his intentions in the first place, anyway, paper can't cover the flames, anyway, it's better to reveal the news earlier than to let people know about it eight months later!

Chapter 24

"Princess, are you still missing today?" Dongmei asked in a low voice beside Sima Ji who was resting with his eyes closed, standing sideways with his hands down.

"not see."

Dongmei nodded slightly, ordered a few words according to Sima Ji's intention, then straightened up and continued to stand beside Sima Ji.

And really!Ever since she found out that her princess was pregnant, Mrs. Tang brought people to the princess mansion every day to seek an audience, as if she wasn't the one who drove her princess away that day.

Dongmei snorted coldly in her heart, but she began to silently regret the snacks Mrs. Tang brought from the Tang residence every day. The sweet fragrance could be smelled across a door, but her princess didn't buy them. As for Madam Tang's account, every time she was pushed because she was unwell or couldn't be free, she never let her in for a visit.

Sure enough, he would rather offend a gentleman than a villain, would rather offend a villain than a woman, and would rather offend a woman than offend the princess!

Just as he was muttering silently, he could only hear the sound of turning over on the bed, and saw Sima Ji annoyed and annoyed as he lifted the small mattress, took a big gulp of sour plum soup, calmed down and said, "Forget it, Dongmei, you go!" Invite her in. It's not a problem to leave her alone like this, just pretend that I don't care about her for Huo Qi's sake."

Dongmei smiled and blessed her body and replied: "My lord princess has a lot, and this way of doing it shows that you are magnanimous! You drink the sour plum soup first, and this servant will invite Mrs. Tang over."

After all, he left like a gust of wind.

After only half a cup of tea, Dongmei brought Tang He to the small garden, and saw Sima Ji from afar, dressed in lake blue, sitting on a chair and playing with the jade ornaments in his hands.

"Last time Mrs. Tang speculated that I was going to get married with my son-in-law. Could it be that she wanted to ask me who this child is?" Sima Ji put down the warm jade ornament in his hand, expressionless.

"Whoever the princess's husband-in-law is, it is naturally his child." Tang He smiled slightly, took the basket from the servant, placed it on the small table and opened it gently, "It is the hardest for pregnant women. Princess, look at these things that are not easy to eat. Can't see it."

As soon as the food basket was opened, there was a burst of fragrance.Inside the box are several small dishes, each containing two or three pieces of pastries, which are also very delicate.

On the first plate are taro soft dumplings. The lavender taro is wrapped in the transparent glutinous rice skin, and some fresh lotus leaves are mixed in. The fragrant, soft, bright and attractive small appearance of each one is amazing. is good looking.

On the second plate are rice balls, but the rice balls are only one-third the size of a palm. The snow-white glutinous rice balls are dotted with green beans and sweet and sour plum grains. The taste will make people feel appetite.

On the third plate is a rice dumpling. The strong smell of meat and salted egg yolk is intertwined and floats into the air. The fat and lean pork pieces and the delicate and salty egg yolk are half hidden in the rice dumpling. Li, with a shy and timid look, just looking at it makes people feel satisfied.

The most worth mentioning is that these three dishes are all made of extremely small size, pocket-sized and cute, with sweet, sour and salty, and full of flavors.Even if people eat this thing in a row, they will not feel tired or greasy.

"Princess, why don't you give it a try?" Tang He smiled and handed over a pair of chopsticks.

Sima Ji didn't refuse either, took a rice ball with the chopsticks, and took a light bite - immediately felt the fragrance on his lips and teeth.

Sima Ji couldn't help but praised: "I didn't expect the cooks in the Tang Mansion to have such skills. Another day, the Palace really wants to let the imperial cooks of the Princess Mansion go and learn two tricks."

"If you think it suits your taste, you can eat more. Qier also loved eating these things when she was a child, but after she took over the business and became busy, there is not much I can do for her as a mother. Now princess, you like it, really It couldn't be better."

"I didn't expect Mrs. Tang to have such good craftsmanship." Sima Ji secretly marveled for a while, and began to feel sorry for the food he missed these few days.

"Pregnant people are the most picky. If the princess likes to use more, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I will send it tomorrow." Eyes fell on the belly that has not yet bulged, Tang He smiled slightly at Sima Ji, "A few months gone?"

"Not yet two months."

"Well... There are still eight months. The fetal gas is still unstable before the third month, the princess must be careful everywhere." Tang He thought carefully and said, "Let's take the medicinal diet to raise the fetus first! Wen Run Nourishing and easy to drink, isn't it better than that bitter soup?"

Sima Ji nodded, also deeply agreeing.

Knowing that this pregnancy means a lot to Sima Ji, and it is the same to him.It's just that his child's whereabouts are still unknown, and he can't always be with others.

Subconsciously, she thought that when she was pregnant with Tang Huoqi, she had to rely on her father and younger sister to help her through the difficulties.

Thinking about it like this, when I looked at Sima Ji again, I couldn't help but feel guilty and pity in my heart, "These days, I have to work hard on you, Princess."

"It's sweet as sweet." Sima Ji raised his head slightly, with a proud expression on his face.

After listening, Tang He smiled slightly and felt relieved.

"A few days ago, news came from the north. It was said that someone had seen a man with a face similar to Huo Qi at the entrance of the vegetable market..." Sima Ji put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a small handkerchief. A girl was taken away."

Tang He's heart felt a little nervous, he only clenched the corner of his clothes tightly, and held his breath without saying a word.

"That girl is the leader of a local group who often steals. Her surname is Mo and she is the sixth child, and everyone below calls her Mo Liu——the girl's background is nothing. It's just that no one saw them again. If that He is really Huo Qi, and things will be easy to handle..."

"It must be Huo Qi! In all things in the world, how can anyone look so similar to others?" Upon hearing the news about her daughter, Tang He's unavoidably became excited, and almost decided that the person was Tang Huoqi .

Sima Ji pursed his lips and said nothing.

The prince doesn't know when the cock crows, Qiming doesn't see dawn and night.It's not like plowing the barn full of millet, and the people of Zhidao are struggling to paint the five grains.

"Xiao Er! Quickly ask the new boy to serve us the wine!"

"The new boy is so innocent and handsome! I don't know how to do this physical work!"

……

Xiao Er pushed Tang Huoqi who was standing beside her, and said enviously, "I lost my purse and came to work in the store to pay for the meal, but I didn't expect you to be so popular, you will overshadow my limelight!" Said As he spoke, he stuffed the jug in Tang Huoqi's hand, "This is what the guest asked you to send the wine to, I'm not being lazy!"

Tang Huoqi took the flagon with a look of embarrassment, and came to the table with three steps. Just as he put down the flagon and was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by someone.

"New here, look at your skin and tender flesh, you must be a rabbit master!" The big man blushed, lifted the wine pot with one hand and poured a bowl, and put the wine bowl on the table with a "snap" sound. Tang Huoqi provocatively said in front of him: "Little white face, try what kind of wine this is! If you can taste it, we brothers will pay double the price for the wine. If you can't taste it, hehe... you will accompany me tonight Let's be happy, third brother!"

As soon as the voice fell, the originally noisy tavern suddenly became quiet.The man who just opened his mouth to provoke is a butcher at the intersection of the street, and he has a big arm, a round waist, and boundless strength.He and a group of local hooligans call him brothers, so although the locals don't despise them very much, they dare not offend them openly.

"This new kid doesn't know anything. He offended you guys. I can't apologize to you guys here. Look at this..." The little girl on the side hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over with a smile—the drunk butcher wanted to make a mess again. something happened!

"My name is this boy with thin skin and tender meat, what are you talking about!" the butcher said.
