165 What does she know?(2/2)
The overt and covert fights are temporarily gone.
On the eve of the Double Ninth Festival, Chang Suining and A Dian sat on the stone steps and looked at the stars.
A Dian's belly was bulging, firstly because he had just eaten a bowl of longevity noodles, and secondly because he had a cute orange kitten under his robe.
That was Chang Suining's birthday gift to him today. From time to time, he would take it out, rub it on his face, and inhale it. He couldn't put it down and was so happy: "Little Li, how did you know that I like cats!"
"You told me last time." Chang Suining sat on the stone steps with his hands on his sides, tilting his head back slightly to look at the stars in the night sky.
A Dian laughed "Hey" and said, "Yeah, I don't even remember."
But the cute kitten moving around in the robe quickly attracted his attention. He couldn't think about it and said proudly: "...Now I also have a little raccoon slave!"
"By the way, what did Governor Cui give you?" Chang Suining asked casually.
After she handed the box to Xi'er that day, she forgot to take a peek on the way.
"That's it!" A Dian turned to face her and stretched out his two hands toward her like a big dog, with the backs of his hands facing up.
Only then did Chang Suining see a pair of black wrist armor on his wrist.
"Doesn't it look good? Look, there are cat paw prints on it!" A Dian showed off to her.
Chang Suining smiled and nodded: "Well, it's very powerful and suits you very well."
A Dian is good at boxing and practices boxing every day. Cui Jing gave me this wrist armor with great care.
"With this, I can do one more set of punches every day."
"How many days will it take for Xiao Sui'an to go home? I want to try his shooting skills."
"Little A Li, after celebrating your birthday, what should we do tomorrow?"
A Dian hugged his little raccoon slave and kept talking.
Chang Suining: "Tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival, and we have to plant dogwood trees."
"How about planting the dogwood?"
"Have breakfast."
"Good breakfast, I also want to eat sweet porridge! What about after finishing the sweet porridge?"
"After finishing the sweet porridge, I want to go out." Chang Sui Ning said.
…
Early the next morning, Chang Sui Ning and Duan went to Princess Chongyue's Mansion.
When getting off the carriage outside the eldest princess's residence, Chang Sui Ning, who was wearing a sky-blue cloak, held a few branches of dogwood in her arms, with green leaves and red fruits, like red beans.
Duan ordered the servants to carry down a large box they had brought: "Look carefully..."
Looking at the box, Chang Suining couldn't help but remain silent.
All household items are ready.
Duan asked people to carry the box containing the sacrificial objects into the eldest princess's mansion.
The female envoy from the eldest princess's palace had received the news in advance that Duan would come to offer sacrifices today, and at this moment she led people to the sacrifice hall.
Duan himself placed half of the sacrifices he had brought, and knelt down on the mat to kowtow as usual.
Chang Sui Ning followed suit. Since this was not the first time, his mood was basically stable.
"Mrs. Duan, I don't know how to put the rest..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I want to put the rest in His Highness's courtyard." Mrs. Duan took the handkerchief and pressed the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Maybe the Double Ninth Festival is approaching, and there are always many people in the past few days.
I dreamed about the days when I stayed in the courtyard with His Highness to study in the past, so I wanted to go over and have a look."
The tears are real, and the desire to dig into the box is also real.
But reading in the yard is ridiculous.
Chang Suijing watched her pretending quietly.
Ah Xiao once told her that when Duan Zhenyi was not in the study hall, whenever he held a book in his hand, he was always reading a storybook, and sometimes he would secretly change the book cover.
Duan came to offer sacrifices with the permission of Emperor Shengce. She proposed to go to the eldest princess's residence, so the female envoy naturally had no reason to stop her.
The female envoy led the way and led Duan and his party to Chongyue's residence.
Mrs. Duan was moved by the scene and shed tears again. After placing the sacrifices, she said she wanted to walk around the courtyard.
The female envoy no longer followed, but waited outside the courtyard.
Avoiding the female envoy, Duan wiped her tears, pulled Chang Suining around to the back wall of the courtyard, and whispered: "Let's quietly go out from here and walk around so that you can take a look.
Which garden is it..."
Seeing her sneaky appearance, Chang Suining finally understood that Duan Zhenyi was a thief today.
She originally thought that Duan Zhenyi would dig out the box openly and openly as an excuse to retrieve old things.
It's better to be a thief now. If you can conceal the truth and take the things away smoothly, you won't attract any attention, including Ming Hou. If it is exposed later, Duan Zhenyi will be responsible for the shame. After all, the things are Duan's.
What Zhenyi took had nothing to do with her junior status.
It's really appropriate to think about it this way.
Chang Suining felt very at ease, after all, she was spending money to do things this time.
