The Resplendent Farming Apothecary - Chapter 749
[Chapter seven hundred and forty-ninth birthday surprise]
She didn’t notice that the servants of the palace that she met along the way had beaming expressions on their faces and greeted her. As soon as she stepped into Tingjianxuan, her eyes suddenly became dark, a familiar atmosphere enveloped her, and her eyes were covered by a pair of warm hands.
“Brother Chen, what are you doing?” Gu Ye stopped because of the darkness in front of him, but was not panicked. Brother Chen is here, so she won’t be hurt in the slightest.
“Take you to a place…” Ling Juechen covered the little girl’s eyes with one hand, and held her small hand with a big palm, leading her towards the direction of the East Crossing Courtyard.
Gu Ye grinned at his palm and said, “Is this going to surprise me?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll find out in a while!” Ling Juechen slowed down and led the little girl to the east. Cross-hospital. As soon as he entered the East Crossing Courtyard, he took his hand away from the little girl’s eyes.
Gu Ye slowly opened his eyes and opened his small mouth slowly, forming an “o” shape. Wow! This is the starry sky, has it fallen into the mortal world? At night, it is dark across the courtyard, and lights are everywhere at this time.
On both sides of the road, the candles covered by glass flickered with golden light. Along the way, it seems that countless bright ellipses are pieced together. The trees on both sides are also covered with glass lamps the size of table tennis balls. From a distance, it seems that countless fireflies are jumping and flying.
Looking at the lotus pond, it seems that on every lotus leaf, candles are jumping, and the glass is reflecting light, forming a sea of lights and a world of light. On the water, a red lotus lantern floats, adding a different color to the golden ocean.
“Wow—” Gu Ye was deeply amazed, and couldn’t help saying, “What day is today, so grand? With so many lights, it will take a long time to arrange the light? Not to mention customizing these glass candle lights. Now…Brother Chen, you are really rich!”
Ling Juechen took her little hand and walked along the path guided by the lights in the direction of the waterside pavilion, saying, “You’ll find out later!”
“I know, you don’t mean to I propose?” Gu Ye suddenly had a flash of inspiration and grinned, “Although this world pays attention to the words of the matchmaker, even if you propose, I can’t easily agree to you. But, it’s really romantic! I didn’t expect you to be like this. The big ice cube has such a romantic side! Come on, I’ll reward you with a kiss!”
Gu Ye stopped, held Ling Juechen’s cheek, stood on tiptoe, kissed it lightly, and then ran to By the water’s edge, I picked up a pink lotus lantern and held it in my hand. A lotus flower made of glass with a red candle inside. Candles are burning, candles are dancing.
Gu Ye held it in the palm of his hand happily, and said, “It’s a pity that I didn’t go to see the lanterns with Brother Chen at this year’s Lantern Festival. The glass lantern that Brother Chen gave to our family has become a grand capital in Beijing. We The Duke of Zhenguo’s mansion is really in the limelight! Tonight’s lights are even more eye-catching than that night because of the presence of Brother Chen!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to hear someone let out a chuckle. Although it was very light and short, it was captured by her keenly. Gu Ye stopped and asked, “Brother Chen, did you hear anything? Are there any other people in this garden besides us?”
At this time, they had arrived not far from the waterside pavilion. Gu Ye only looked at the bright lights in the garden like the stars, but didn’t notice the whole yard, only the waterside pavilion was dark, as if half of it had disappeared from the garden.
Suddenly, Gu Ye’s little white face was reflected in a bright light. The originally dark water pavilion suddenly radiated dazzling light. On the wall of the water pavilion, red lights formed seven shining characters: “Little Leaf, happy birthday!”
“Wow! Light bulb! Brother Chen, you made it. The lightbulb is coming?” Gu Ye seemed to have misunderstood the point, looking at the long-lost electric lights, with the urge to cry. She has been thinking about the electric light since the electricity was turned on in the East Crossing Courtyard.
But in her space, apart from two small charging lamps, there were no light bulbs, electric rods, energy-saving lamps, or anything like that. It made her feel very sorry.
Unexpectedly, Brother Chen got the light bulb out so quickly, and it was still colored. Brother Chen is really an ancient “Edison”!
Ling Juechen pointed at the words made up of red light bulbs, and said, “Look at that, shouldn’t the focus be on the words ‘Happy Birthday’?”
“Birthday? My birthday? Isn’t my birthday the end of April? It’s only the sixth day of the sixth month…” Gu Ye was at a loss. How did she not know that today was her birthday? Brother Chen can’t make a mistake, right?
On her birthday this year, she and her brother passed by on the way to Yan Kingdom. They ate longevity noodles, and lay on two poached eggs, almost not supporting her. Aunt Yan also blamed herself, saying that she failed to give her a grand birthday party!
“At the end of April, that is your brother Gu Ming’s birthday. Your real birthday is the sixth day of the sixth month. Last year, I confirmed it with Mrs. Zhenguo. If you don’t believe me, go ask your sixth brother!” Ling Jue Chen touched this little confused head and smiled.
As soon as his words fell, the originally silent water pavilion suddenly burst out with a loud and cheerful “Happy birthday!” Then, a group of people poured out from the water pavilion.
Gu Ye pointed at one of the familiar figures, and said dumbfounded: “Princess Hejia… Didn’t you bring Xian’er back to the Princess’ Mansion? Why did you arrive at Prince Ning’s Mansion before me? Oh… I see, you I led it out and dragged me back until the evening, just to help Brother Chen make a surprise for me!”
“His Royal Highness Princess, when… when did you return to the mansion?” Gu Ye’s eyes were full of surprises, “Concubine Tong. , Concubine Qin, and little princess Roufu, can you go out of the palace?”
Princess Ronghe came over, took the little girl’s hand, and patted the little girl gently: “Chen’er prepared this surprise for you in advance. In a few days, someone sent a letter to me, asking me to go back to the house to attend your birthday dinner.”
Concubine Qin said with a smile: “The emperor learned that today is your birthday, the little genius doctor, and specially asked me and Concubine Tong to represent him, I’m here to celebrate the birthday of the little genius doctor.”
Concubine Tong added: “Originally, the emperor wanted to come in person. But the fourth prince, who was resting quietly in the Qiankun Palace, didn’t know how to know, and also shouted to come. He also said that if the emperor didn’t bring him, he sneaked out of the palace. He has only been operated on for two days, how dare he let him move around at will? The emperor was so angry that he wanted to whip him with a whip. He simply didn’t come and stayed in the Qiankun Palace to watch the fourth prince…”
Thinking of Emperor Shengde’s anger, he With an unwilling expression again, Concubine Tong covered her mouth and smiled.
“Oh, it’s only your fourteenth birthday, so there’s no need to be so grand. I’m really embarrassed to work hard…” Gu Ye had a shy expression on his face, and his eyes were full of emotion.
Mrs. Niu also came with several daughters-in-law and her youngest daughter Fang Jiaoniang. Hearing this, she smiled and said, “Yes, although you are far away from your hometown and your relatives, this birthday banquet cannot be ignored. Fourteen years old is the last birthday before Jiji, so of course you have to celebrate it lively.”
Fang Jiao Niang nodded and said with a smile: “My birthday is a big deal for me every year. My mother said that the days when my daughter’s family is in her parents’ home is only a short ten years. Every birthday, I leave home. The day is one step closer. So cherish every spring and autumn when the girl is at home!”
Gu Ye was inexplicably sentimental when he heard it: she has never been by her parents’ side, and has had a birthday feast! If I can’t celebrate her birthday, my mother must be very disappointed, right?
Chu Mushan hugged a large package, squeezed out from the crowd, and said with a smile, “This is a birthday present from your mother. Go and change it!”
Gu Ye opened the package, and inside was a handmade piece by Mrs. Dress, a pair of embroidered shoes. There is also a set of pink pearl heads.
My mother knew that she liked pink pearls, so I didn’t know where to find this set of jewelry. Every pearl on it was the size of a little finger, and it was perfectly round and well-proportioned, which was very rare.
This set of clothes is embroidered with her favorite begonia flowers, and every stitch and every thread carries Jun’s deep love for her daughter.
With a sour nose, Gu Ye took the clothes that his mother sewed for him, and said to the eldest princess and the two mothers, “I’m going to change my clothes. I’m sorry.”
The eldest princess patted her on the shoulder, showing a loving smile, and said, “Go! Chen’er has prepared other surprises for you…”
Gu Ye turned around and gave Ling Juechen a bright smile. Ling Juechen smiled and nodded, but being silent was able to draw each other’s hearts closer than a thousand words.
When Gu Ye came out again, he was wearing a long white embroidered dress, and a short apricot-yellow jacket was embroidered with a slanted crabapple, so delicate that the stamens of the crabapple were clearly visible. On the belt, there are also several gems wrapped in the shape of a begonia. Her hair has also been re-combed, and her delicate lily bun is embellished with pink pearls inlaid in the shape of begonias, dignified and delicate. The whole person is beautiful and graceful, like a fairy Begonia curling up.
The crowd complimented her again. Gu Ye gently stroked the dress on her body. She has grown a little taller in the past two months. She was raised by Brother Chen with delicious food, and she also had some flesh on her body. Mother-in-law’s dress seemed to be tailor-made for her.
In the past two months, she often passed down books to her mother Feiying, saying what she did in Shengjing, what she ate, everything, and where she wanted to write it. My mother was able to extract her current appearance from her messy words and make a dress that fit her.
The letter she wrote, my mother will always take it out and read it. She seemed to see her mother holding her letter under the candlelight, sharing every bit of her letter with her father with tears in her smile…
Thinking of this, Gu Ye’s eyes were filled with heat. Ling Juechen seemed to see through her thoughts, walked to her side, and held her hand silently.
