Little Cardamom - Chapter 87

The smile on Ming Tan’s face froze suddenly, and the joy that filled his heart seemed to be poured by a basin of cold water, leaving only a lingering smoke.

Can this person speak?

Is it because he can’t speak on weekdays so he rarely speaks?

After Jiang Xu finished speaking, he also felt that this question seemed to be wrong, he explained: “I don’t have any other meanings, what I mean is——”

“Your feet stink!” Ming Tan’s drowsiness has been driven out of Jiang Xu’s anger, and he is so energetic that he can sit down and read ten more books now.

Jiang Xu: “…”

Ming Tan sat down and tidied up the needlework by himself, without even looking at him.

Jiang Xu was silent, and also took a seat on the other side, and put on Ming Tan’s new winter boots.

“It’s very comfortable and fits well. The princess has a heart.” After putting it on, he said.

Ming Tan ignored him.

He got up and stood in front of Ming Tan, and the winter boots came into her sight.

She couldn’t help but cast a glance.

It really fits well, just how she imagined her feet would look like. But she did such a good job and hid her own little thoughts inside, this man couldn’t understand the amorous feelings so far, and became even angrier!

She got up, and was about to go to the dressing table with her packed sewing box, but Jiang Xu blocked her way. She wanted to go around, but Jiang Xu stretched out his hand again, blocking her way.

“Why are you stopping me?” Ming Tan asked angrily.

Jiang Xu didn’t answer, just took the sewing box from her arms, put it back on the dressing table, and found the medicine box from the drawer.

“Your hand is injured, my lord…” Jiang Xu paused, “I’ll give you medicine.”

Ming Tan didn’t say a word, and let Jiang Xu drag her back to the soft couch.

“It may hurt a little, bear with it.” He said in a deep voice.

“No matter how painful it is, it doesn’t hurt when you get stabbed!”

Jiang Xu’s movements stopped, and he raised his eyes to look at her: “Does it hurt?”

“Of course it hurts.”

Ming Tan is not some silly girl who silently dedicates without asking for rewards or distress. She usually watches people making snacks and can explain it in detail in front of Jiang Xu for half a moment. She planned to have such a big surprise. To invite credit, let the husband feel how much she really cares for him from all aspects!

She was so angry just now that she didn’t want to talk to him, but now he took the initiative to ask, she would not let go of this great opportunity, she kept chattering non-stop, from the idea of ​​how to start all the way to today’s hand There are eleven stitches on the top.

The more she talked, the more aggrieved she became, and she handed her hot drugged fingers to Jiang Xu: “I’m not exaggerating, look, eleven stitches are enough.”

Jiang Xu was silent for a while, not knowing how to respond.

After a while, he said, “It’s my king’s fault.”

He felt that he was wrong, but he also felt that something was wrong.

It’s just that Ming Tan didn’t give him much time to think about it: “Then blow it up.” As he said that, he moved his paw closer.

Jiang Xu hesitated for a moment, but followed what she said, and blew lightly.

Ming Tan asked again: “Does my embroidery look good?”

“…Ok.”

“But I see, Husband doesn’t seem to like it very much.”

“like.”

“Do you really like it?”

“Of course, tomorrow the king will wear the new boots you made, and the princess will worry about it.”

“My husband, why is he always so polite when talking to me!”

Jiang Xu was silent for a long while, and finally said with difficulty: “Ah Tan is bothering you.”

Hearing the sound of “A Tan”, Ming Tan was finally satisfied, she stood up and grabbed Jiang Xu: “Husband, hurry up and settle down, I have to go to worship the Taimiao tomorrow, but I am very tired.”

Jiang Xu nodded, inexplicably relieved.

During the winter solstice, there was nothing wrong with worshiping the Taimiao, so Jiang Xu got up after two hours of rest.

When he changed into the court clothes, it was still dark outside, the house was silent, and Ming Tan was still sleeping deeply.

He looked at Ming Tan’s peaceful sleeping face for a while, twisted the corner of the quilt tightly, and wanted to get up, but he didn’t know what to think of, so he leaned over and kissed her forehead again, and then went out quietly.

The winter sacrifices are complicated, traveling to the Taimiao, praying for blessings in the suburbs, and temporarily resting in the fasting palace, so I can’t go back to Luan for three or five days. The paving shops outside were also on strike, so there was nothing to do. With nothing to do, Ming Tan simply met several customers.

This first wave is Shen Hua and her mother-in-law, Xiang Shi.

Xiang Shi is a kind-hearted person, she was very satisfied with Shen Hua the first time she saw each other, and later got married, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have always gotten along very well.

When she came back to Dingbei Palace, Xiang Shi was also worried that Shen Hua was pregnant, so she came here to take care of her.

Shen Hua still doesn’t show her bosom now, but her figure is obviously plump, her brows and eyes are full, and she is radiant. Seeing her like this, Ming Tan also knows that she is living a very happy life now.

The three of them gossiped about family matters and had a very pleasant chat, but they didn’t know whether it was Shen Hua’s intention to avoid taboo or what, she and Xiang Shi hadn’t found out a word about Tan’s body.

On the contrary, Ming Tan curiously touched Shen Hua’s slightly protruding belly, and sighed: “My cousin is going to be a mother, and I don’t know when I will be a mother. I always feel that I haven’t grown up yet.”

Hearing the words, Xiang Shi hurriedly said: “The princess is still young, so I’m not in a hurry.”

Ming Tan deeply agreed: “The prince also said so.”

Seeing that Ming Tan didn’t mind this topic, Xiang Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Hua didn’t know what she was thinking, she pondered for a while, and didn’t say much, and she said to Ming Tan after the maid took Xiang Shi to the toilet, “I heard what my aunt said earlier, and I was a little worried about your heir, but I see you, you don’t seem worried.”

“I was a little worried at first, but the prince is not worried. He also said that I am young and there is no need to rush to get pregnant. It makes sense when I think about it. If there is no rush, let nature take its course.”

Shen Hua hesitated to speak, but after a long while, she still asked after deliberation: “Did you see a doctor?”

“The imperial doctor will come every month to ask for a safe pulse, no problem.”

Only then did Shen Hua feel relieved: “You’re right, I think my aunt is afraid that you will be like her… But the prince is not in a hurry, just let nature take its course.”

Ming Tan nodded, but what Shen Hua said, she planned to ask the next time the imperial doctor Feng came to ask for the Ping’an pulse, if there is any way to increase the chance of getting pregnant. What’s more, she and her husband haven’t had **** for half a month. If they don’t have sex, the child will never be conceived out of thin air.

Three days later, Shengjia returned to Luang. After sending Emperor Chengkang and Empress Zhang back to the palace, Jiang Xu also returned home early.

Shangjing, which was closed for three days and reopened, was very busy. Jiang Xu rode on the horse and walked forward at a leisurely pace, not knowing what he was looking for. When he walked to the corner of the street, he caught a glimpse of a cloth shop that was doing very well, with a constant flow of people coming and going.

Recalling Ming Tan’s enthusiasm for shopping in garment shops when he was in Hezhou, Jiang Xu tightened his reins and dismounted.

“Guest officer, please come inside.” The clerk in the store greeted him very warmly, “What do you want to see? Winter clothes or silk satins, our store has everything.”

Jiang Xu scanned around, his eyes fixed on a piece of plain satin with a faint luster.

The waiter looked very winking, and hurriedly said: “Guest officer, you really have discernment. This snow satin is an excellent material, and dignitaries like it very much. Look at the luster and the feel. It’s just a good material. The other ones must be more expensive—”

“Two horses.” Jiang Xu said straight.

“G, okay, okay.” When meeting such a straightforward customer, the clerk was very attentive, “Just wait a moment, and I’ll wrap it up for you.”

Since he went south and returned to Beijing, he didn’t seem to see any new clothes for his little princess. A few days ago she gave him winter boots, and today he gave her fabric, I think she will be happy.

It’s just that before he returned to the mansion to see someone happy, another accident happened in the capital camp, and he needed to go to deal with it.

It was nearly dusk when he finished his work and returned home.

He had been silently preparing his speech for a long time, but when he returned to Qi’an Hall, Ming Tan was not there.

“Where is the princess?”

“Returning to Your Highness, the princess was waiting for you to come back to have lunch together in the mansion, but you sent someone back to the mansion and said that you would go to the barracks first, so the princess used it alone. After resting for half an hour at noon, Miss Bai sent someone to come. Please, Wangfei went to the Duke Chang’s mansion to have tea, and she also ordered that her dinner is not necessary today.” Su Xin, who stayed in charge of Qi’an Hall, replied.

Jiang Xu was silent, didn’t go into the house, just handed the two bolts of satin to Su Xin: “The king went to the study, the princess came back, and told her that the king picked it for her.”

Su Xin hadn’t regained her senses at first, but after taking the satin, she suddenly understood something, and couldn’t help pursing her lips and snickering.

Ming Tan ate two cups of green orange wine at Duke Chang’s mansion today, and her face was a little hot. When she returned to the mansion, it was already dark. Seeing the silence in the courtyard, she asked casually while going back to the house: “Your lord hasn’t come back yet.”

Su Xin helped her undress and said with a smile: “I’m back, the prince is in the study right now.”

“Back?” Ming Tan was slightly surprised.

Su Xin smiled mysteriously: “Not only did you return, the prince also specially picked out a gift for you.”

“What gift?” Ming Tanjiu woke up a bit.

Su Xin turned around and presented the two pieces of satin that Jiang Xu had brought back.

Ming Tan saw it and was speechless for a while.

Snow satin? It’s been at least three months, right? Ordinary wealthy people in Beijing still wear them, but the ladies and ladies she knows don’t wear them long ago.

Look at the logo of the Golden Thread Pavilion on it, presumably he didn’t give it as a reward from the palace, but bought it himself in the Golden Thread Pavilion.

His Royal Highness Dingbei Wang went to the Golden Thread Pavilion and carefully selected two long-outdated fabrics, which made people feel a little sad in the funny way, and made people feel a little moved in the sad.

The corners of her lips turned up, she touched the fabric lovingly, she didn’t know what she was thinking, after a long time, she suddenly ordered someone to prepare food, she also cleaned up her makeup, changed her clothes, and led Su Xin to the study went.

In the study, Jiang Xu was discussing with several generals who came in secret in the secret room to start the layout and recover Rongzhou, the last remaining Rongzhou in the thirteen prefectures of the Northland. Halfway through, he suddenly heard familiar footsteps approaching outside the house Thinking that the guards outside didn’t know that he was having a secret discussion with someone, and would definitely not stop the princess, Jiang Xu closed his voice, motioned them to wait for a while, moved the mechanism, and walked out of the secret room alone.

When Ming Tan entered the study, Jiang Xu happened to sit back at the table.

Before he had time to ask her what she was doing here, Ming Tan swept up in front of him like a gust of wind, put down the food box, sat down on his lap without any refusal, put his arms around his neck, and said coquettishly: ” Husband, you don’t care about the things you gave, the snow satin has been out of date for three months, don’t you like A Tan, don’t you love A Tan anymore!”

“…”

“My king…”

“Here we go again!” Ming Tan was always dissatisfied with his claim.

“I–“

Ming Tan leaned closer, and continued to act like a spoiled child intimately: “It doesn’t matter, I will punish my husband to kiss A-Tan!”

Jiang Xu glanced at her with a look of “Are you sure?” Ming Tan seemed to be impatient, kissed him first, and she didn’t believe it. She was so active and enthusiastic tonight, and the husband still didn’t understand the relationship between husband and wife. Some fun.

Facts have proved that he really can’t understand——

“Don’t make trouble, you go back to the house first.” His Adam’s apple rolled slightly for a moment, his voice was low and hoarse.

Who made a fuss? Ming Tan was dissatisfied and wanted to sue him, when there was a sound behind the ancient shelf.
