Chapter 168:

Gu Suier listened to Mother An's persuasion, but she didn't take it seriously.
She believed in Xiao Heng, and Xiao Heng said that she was the only one, so naturally there would be no others. He is not the kind of man who can't control himself. When an ordinary palace lady comes to hook on him, he may not look rightly at him.
If such a husband doesn’t trust him, is there anyone worthy of trust that day?
However, she also knew that the empress dowager would not believe that Xiao Heng would no longer want other women, nor did the ministers of the Central Government. Even the maternal mother An beside her thought that Xiao Heng would always be lucky enough to be a woman.
She smiled, and didn't explain this to Mother An.
In the eyes of Mother An, Xiao Heng was an emperor who was so noble and feared that she certainly didn't understand what Xiao Heng was.
But over time, everyone will understand.
Gu Suier looked at the sky outside, and saw that Xiao Heng and A Chen hadn't come back, and led A Wan to play on the soft couch next to him. In the greenhouse, Achen accompanied Awan to pick some leaves. The leaves of various shapes were bright red, brilliant yellow, and of course rich green. Gu Suier remembered that he had seen exquisite leaf paintings in the palace before, and thought of matching Awan's leaves to make the painting.
Three full-color leaves were put on a piece of rice paper, and Awan put them together at will.
Awan is just over three years old now, and hasn't started learning painting yet, just to make her play and pass the time.
Awan was a well-behaved child, and when she got the leaf, she was also interested, making gestures on the rice paper, quite devoted. When Gu Suier saw it, she took a book of poems and read it.
After watching for a while, she looked up and saw that Awan next to her was still looking down at the rice paper intently.
She knew that Awan was a bit slow to react, and was not as smart as Achen, so she never forced her.
Do it if you like it, or even if you don't like it, it doesn't matter if you don't do it well enough. She is destined to be loved for a lifetime because of her background. It is because she and Xiao Heng are gone, and Achen is helping her.
Gu Suier felt that her Awan didn't have to work too hard, just to be healthy and safe.
She walked to Awan's side, lowered her head and stroked her soft black hair, warmly said: "Ah Wan has fun?"
When I said this, I accidentally looked at the rice paper, and I couldn't help but couldn't believe it.
She raised her head and looked around the hall. None of the maids had come close, and Mother An was not there, and no one would help Awan.
Even if they are there, they may not be able to spell out such a beautiful painting.
Gu Suier looked at the leaves on the rice paper in disbelief. The three full and splendid colors joined together to form a flying fairy, with petals sprinkled in her hands.
The fairy, because it was made of leaves, is simple and rough, but quite vivid.
"Awan, is this what you just did?" She was so shocked that she couldn't help asking.
"Well, it's Awan, mother, watch out for the wind." Awan said softly, and stretched out his hand and gently pressed the leaves: "The paste doesn't stick well, the wind blows and ran away. "
She is so old, she always speaks slowly, a sentence is broken into several paragraphs, but Gu Suier understands her meaning, she is afraid that the paste will not be strong enough, in case she touches her, she will It fell apart.
"It's okay, it will be glued in a while." Gu Suier quickly calmed her.
"Mother, Ye Zi, good-looking!" Awan heard Gu Suier say this, relieved, she raised her small face, and let Gu Suier look at her paintings as if offering treasures.
The clear and shining eyes and the soft and cute appearance made people's hearts melted.
"It looks good, Awan did a great job!" Gu Suier praised Awan, while asking without a trace: "How can Awan spell this?"
Awan heard Gu Suier's question, her clear eyes pierced in a daze, then after thinking about it, she pointed in the direction of the conservatory outside and said: "Conservatory, tent."
Gu Suier thought about it, and then remembered that there were embroidery on the curtain hanging in the greenhouse outside. Those embroidery were nothing more than the allusion of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea and Chang'e flying to the moon. The painting that Awan pieced together with leaves was indeed Chang'e flying to the moon.
"Awan is doing really good-looking, mother asked the craftsman to frame it for you? So you don't have to worry about the leaves falling."
"Okay, mount it, mount it!"
Awan nodded cheerfully.
In the evening, Xiao Heng and Ah Chen came back.
Ah Chen was blushing with excitement, and sweat permeated his forehead. After seeing Gu Suier, he happily shouted: "Mother, my father and I hunted a lot of game on the mountain, wait for the kitchen to make it for my mother. Is it okay to mend your body?"
Xiao Awan originally sat aside obediently, but when she heard this, her eyes lit up and she said from the side: "Brother, eat meat."
When the daughter shouted, Gu Suier smiled helplessly and said: "Awan is a little, how can you learn from your brother, and knows how to eat meat all day long."
Xiao Awan licked her ruddy lips and looked at her brother expectantly.
Ah Chen patted his chest: "Awan, let you eat big meat tonight!"
Xiao Awan clapped her hands accordingly: "Eat big meat!"
At this moment, Gu Suier laughed hard: "Look at you two brothers and sisters. Those who don't know think you can't eat meat every day!"
A Chen rolled his eyes, and took Xiao Awan's hand and ran out: "Awan, I also brought you a good thing. Follow me to see."
Gu Suier looked at Xiao Heng next to him. Achen was very tired, and Xiao Heng didn't sweat on his face, but it was conceivable that he must have sold his energy.
"Achen, don't run out for now, you are now covered in stinky sweat, carefully smoked your sister."
When Ah Chen heard it, he hurriedly lowered his head and smelled it. It smelled of sweat, but it wasn't smelly.
Gu Suier raised her eyebrows and whispered: "Take the game to the kitchen. Let the kitchen make it tonight. You and your father will go take a bath."
Ah Chen didn't want to take a bath. He sweats and doesn't smell bad. How could he smoke his sister?
He was aggrieved, so aggrieved, so he looked at his father Xiao Heng for help.
Xiao Heng hasn't spoken since entering the room. Hearing Gu Suier say this at this time, he simply ignored Ah Chen's request for help and nodded: "Okay."
Ah Chen was suddenly helpless.
Your own father is true too, is this still the emperor? Why are you so scared of it? Mother said something, he will be the imperial edict!
But he couldn't help it, after winking at Awan, he drooped his head and followed Xiao Heng out.
Gu Suier went out to look at the prey of the father and son in person, and found that it was indeed plentiful, with roe deer and pheasant. Gu Suier had also learned how to rectify this game in Northern Xinjiang, so she thought that she hadn't revealed her craft for a long time, but now she can make a delicious meal, which can be regarded as comforting Xiao Heng's hard work during this period.
She asked the kitchen to cook the pheasant robe first, the plucked hairs that should be plucked, the peeled skins that should be peeled, and the cooking was done properly, and she started cooking.
The kitchen here is naturally not as simple as the imperial dining room in the palace, but it is full of everything. Gu Suier himself stewed chicken soup and cooked the roe deer meat in the kitchen.
While she was busy, Mother An ran over, looked around at no one, and whispered: "Manny, that lowly woman, I'm afraid I will do it tonight."
When Gu Suier heard this, she was slightly startled. What kind of a mean woman, what to do tonight, it seems to say that someone is going to do something that hurts the world?
Seeing that Gu Suier didn’t understand, Mother An said mysteriously:
It’s the woman in the warm room before. Now the emperor has gone to take a bath. I guess that woman must be taking advantage of the emperor’s bath time to start and help. Take a shower and change clothes, then take the opportunity to hook up!"
Gu Suier also thinks about it. Xiao Heng mostly stays with herself and her two children, and only has a chance to be seduce when taking a bath.
"Then let her go, the emperor doesn't mean that any woman can be seduced."
Mother An looked at Gu Suier with a calm face, and she stomped her feet in anxious manner: "My mother, don't be afraid!"
Gu Suier was amused when she saw her in such anxious state, and she felt that she was worrying about herself: "No matter, it's almost time for the chicken to be simmered. Let's take a look outside the bath room and just take a walk to enjoy the scenery. "
Mother An breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking about the scene there, she raised her heart again: "The lady is more heart-warming, she has to be careful. It's not I said that the emperor is now a noble status, I don't know how many people would like to kneel down on the emperor. Serves by your side! So we have to be careful not to let such a demon-like woman appear next to the emperor."
While they were talking, they heard a sharp cry from outside the bath room in front of them. It was the previous Jiao Didi, but the voice at this time was hoarse, panic and aggrieved.
Mother An listened, afraid of her thighs; "Oh, okay, isn't this true and the emperor has become a problem, and now I am looking for life and death to be the queen concubine?"
It was also that she kept talking in her ears. Although Gu Suier was sure that Xiao Heng would never do anything, she was also a little puzzled, thinking what happened to that woman? How do you call it like this? Don't be so careless about it. When the time comes to place such a person in the palace, wouldn't it be confusing for yourself?
At the moment, he took a few steps and crossed the crescent gate.
As soon as I entered the Crescent Moon Gate, I saw a woman wearing a tulle red dress, her hair scattered, and the red dress couldn't cover half of her back in embarrassment.
Such a woman, screaming in horror, was running around in the yard, as if she was crazy.
"Help, ah, ah, help, help me, help me!"
And on the steps at the entrance of the bath room next to the yard, Xiao Ah Chen was carrying his hands behind his back, and the old was watching the crazy woman. Little, he narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were cold, and he looked a bit like his father Xiao Heng.
"What exactly happened here?"
Gu Suier finally couldn't help it, and asked with her eyebrows.
