Foodie Fujin is a bit sweet

Chapter 78
In the courtyard of Jingren Palace, because of this birthday, big red lanterns were hung up.

The atmosphere in the entire palace was lively and lively, as if it was Chinese New Year.

Fuhui was wearing red clothes. When she came out of the house and looked at the lanterns in the yard, she was like a curious baby, wanting to reach out and touch those lanterns.

"Good boy, Fuhui, Queen Mother has prepared a small lantern for you."

With a smile all over her face, the queen held a small hydrangea lantern the size of a palm, and handed it to Fu Hui.

Fuhui took the lantern bouncingly, threw it upwards, and caught it again and again.When he smiled, he showed a missing front tooth, full of childishness.

Seeing such a lovely Fuhui, the queen's heart softened a little.

Her Hong Hui was so cute back then.

"Empress, it's about time. Concubine Xi and Concubine Yu have already arrived, and the fourth elder brother and fifth elder brother are about to enter the palace."

After Yixia finished taking care of everything in the main hall of Jingren Palace, she returned to the queen's side and reported: "The emperor's Luanjia is already on his way."

"Okay." The queen nodded, then took Fuhui's hand and went out together.

Walking on the veranda in Jingren Palace, Fuhui looked up at the Queen, and asked, "Will Fifth Brother come to see me in the palace? He said that he prepared a birthday present for me."

Fuhui likes Hong Zhou the most.

Hong Zhou is very interesting, and often plays with him in different ways.

Although, the fourth brother is also very good, and often helps him with his studies that he doesn't understand.But... what he likes the most is the funniest Fifth Brother.

"Yes. Fifth brother, you are already on your way."

The queen responded with a smile, and went all the way to the main hall.

...

Yasu followed Hong Zhou and arrived at the gate of the palace.

As summer approaches, the trees in the Forbidden City seem to be more green under the sunlight.The marble pavement looks a little dazzling.

Yasu covered his eyes for a while, followed the eunuch who came over from Jingren Palace, and went all the way to Jingren Palace.

She and Hong Zhou were still walking in tandem.But she found that Hong Zhou's pace seemed to be much slower than before.Occasionally, he would sneak a look back at her.

Feeling warm in Yasu's heart, she gave a sweet smile to Hong Zhou who was in front of her.

A smile, like spring water that melts into ice, makes people's hearts rippling slightly.Hongzhou almost couldn't hold back his mind, and only came back to his senses after the little eunuch beside him reminded him.

"In this palace, the fifth elder brother should stop looking at Borzigitgege all the time. It's not good for others to see!"

The little eunuch bit the bullet and reminded, feeling helpless.

Hong Zhou smiled again, before turning his head reluctantly.

In Jingren Palace, Concubine Xi and Concubine Yu sat together, chatting about the future marriage of Hongli and Hongzhou.Hongli and Fucha Deyin's marriage will be next month.

Concubine Xi, who was about to have a daughter-in-law, seemed both happy and looking forward to it.I just hope that Hongli and Fucha Deyin can give birth to an heir sooner and continue the future blood of the Qing Dynasty.

Hongzhou and Yasu arrived outside Jingren Palace and happened to meet Hongli.

Hongli came from another direction.It wasn't until they reached the door that they met the two of them.

Seeing Yasu on such an occasion, Hongli showed a little surprise on his face.But soon, this surprise was suppressed and turned into a faint smile.

It was so faded... that others could barely detect what kind of mood he was in at the moment.

"It turns out that Fifth Brother and Borzijitgege also entered the palace at this moment. It's a coincidence." Hongli said in a flat tone, unable to understand what the words meant.

"Yasu specially prepared a congratulatory gift when he found out about the eighth brother's birthday." Hongzhou thought for a while, then explained: "That's why I took the courage to bring her into the palace after asking Huang Ama for instructions."

"Congratulations?"

Hongli asked: "Gifts are things that come to mind. It's hard work to bother Borzigit Gege to follow the fifth younger brother into the palace in person."

Hearing this, Yasu frowned instantly.

She is not a fool, why can't she understand the meaning of Hongli's words?

She and Hong Zhou are unmarried couples.Logically speaking, we shouldn't meet.What's more, it's such a thing as entering the palace together.

Even if Yasu wanted to give Fuhui a gift, just ask Hongzhou for help.Why did he want to enter the palace with Hong Zhou himself?
"Etiquette is light on people's minds, and goose feathers are sent from thousands of miles away."

Yasu raised his eyebrows and looked at Hongli, followed his example with a faint smile, and said, "The fourth elder brother should know the meaning of this better than me."

"As for whether the congratulatory gift needs to be delivered in person, you will know later, fourth elder brother."

Hongli was startled, and soon smiled again.He didn't speak anymore, he seemed to be surprised in his heart, wondering why Yasu was so eloquent.

Or, some unbalanced factor in my heart was aroused again.

However, the moment Hongli stood in place, Yasu and Hongzhou took the lead to enter Jingren Palace.Not to be outdone, Hongli followed immediately.

After the group entered Jingren Palace, Lord Yongzheng also arrived immediately.

Lord Yongzheng handles government affairs day by day, and he specially held such a birthday banquet for Fuhui, which is enough to show his liking for Fuhui.

To know…

Back then when Hongli and Hongzhou celebrated their birthdays, Concubine Xi and Concubine Yu ordered the imperial dining room to cook a table of meals to celebrate by themselves.

The singing and dancing banquets are no different from those in the past.

Fu Hui is young, so he is not very interested in these things.After watching it for a while at first, it seemed a little uninterested.

Fortunately, the queen had expected this a long time ago, and immediately ordered Yixia to present the birthday gift she had prepared for Fuhui.

"We, Fuhui, are already seven years old. This age is not too young, and it is the age to study hard. I have a set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones that I have treasured for many years, so I will give it to you."

The pen, ink, paper and inkstone came up at one end, amazed everyone.

Master Yongzheng shrank his pupils when he saw it, and hurriedly said: "These are the tributes sent by local officials when he followed Huang Ama to the south of the Yangtze River in the early years."

"Because of your excellent calligraphy with both hands, you were rewarded by Huang Ama for such a set. It has been treasured for all these years, and now it is given to Fu Hui."

What Lord Kangxi rewarded was naturally a good thing.

Fu Hui's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he hurriedly looked up.

He doesn't understand these things very well, but the set in front of him looks as if it will shine, attracting people's attention.

"A good Four Treasures of the Study will naturally match these children who study."

The queen smiled gently and said, "Put these in the concubine's place, and the concubine is reluctant to use them. It's a waste of dust after a long time. It's better to give blessings."

"Thank you Queen Mother."

Fuhui agreed softly, patted her small chest, and assured her: "Don't worry, Empress Madam, my son will definitely study hard and live up to Empress Madam's high expectations."

The queen seemed relieved and nodded with a smile.

She was entrusted by Lord Yongzheng to nurture her blessings, so she will definitely do her best to handle this matter well.

Next, is Hongli.

What Hongli gave to Fuhui was a set of bows and arrows custom-made by a craftsman.According to Fuhui's height and the strength of his hands, it was tailor-made.

In the end, it can be regarded as intentional.But it seems to be a little worse than the Queen's.

Hongli has no better way.For precious things, he must be inferior to the Queen and Lord Yongzheng.But mentally, it was enough.

"I don't know, what will Fifth Brother give me?"

Fu Hui, who received a basketful of gifts, shifted her gaze to Hong Zhou.

There was a wicked smile on his face, obviously coveted for a long time.

He has always been thinking about the "ingenious" gift that Hong Zhou wanted to give him.

"Understood." Seeing Fuhui like this, Hongzhou smiled helplessly.Immediately afterwards, he ordered someone to bring up a set of utensils for shadow puppetry.

At this moment, Yasu knew that it was time for her to play.

PS: Note, there is one thing that is not explained in the text.Before, because Fuhui didn't have a mother-in-law, she lived in elder brother's house (it's very close to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and Yongzheng can take care of her whenever she wants)
At the beginning of this book, it was also described that Fu Hui was ill.So here, Fuhui was sent to the empress by Yongzheng to raise him after that.
