Chapter 1016 The big red lantern hangs high

 The An family incident did not affect the New Year atmosphere in Weiyuan Palace.

On the twenty-second day of the twelfth lunar month, the palace servants began to put up lanterns and decorations. On their way back to the main courtyard after practicing boxing, Daozi and Xiao Moreng saw someone hanging a red lantern, and went up to take a look with some curiosity.

Seeing the red lanterns hanging under the eaves, Daozi became interested and said to the servant: "Give me the lanterns and I will try them too."

The servants did not dare to give the lantern to Daozi: "Little prince, hanging lanterns is very dangerous, and the servants don't dare to put you in danger." If something happens to the little prince, even if they have ten brains, they can't afford to pay for it.

Dao Zi looked unhappy: "You lied to me. I just saw you die. It's obviously very simple."

The servant smiled bitterly and replied: "My little prince, it looks simple to you. That's because the slave is doing this job and is already skilled at it. But you are still young. If you don't hold the ladder steady, you will fall."

Dao Zi was most unhappy when others said he was young, and when he saw his servants disobeying him, he became extremely angry: "Just wait for me. I'll tell my mother to tell you that you don't listen to me."

With that said, he took Xiao Moreng to the main courtyard.

On the way, Xiao Mozhen saw Daozi's mouth pouting high, and said with a smile: "Those servants just did it for your own good. Not to mention you are so young, even I am not allowed to do such dangerous things at home."

Dao Zi wrinkled his face, with deep unhappiness on his face: "But I just want to try it."

While we were talking, the main courtyard arrived.

Dao Zi quickly ran into the house and saw Dao Hua sitting on the couch beside the bed reading the gift list. He trotted to her side and said aggrievedly: "Mom, the servants in the house don't listen to me, the little prince.



Daohua moved her eyes away from the gift list, fell on Daozi, and asked calmly: "What do you want to do again?"

The servants in the house would not dare to treat their son lightly, unless the son does something 'bad' again.

Daozi pursed her lips: "Mom, I want to hang up red lanterns, but they won't let me."

Daohua looked at Daozi: "Then why do you think they didn't let you die?"

Daozi hummed and said: "They said hanging lanterns is dangerous, but I clearly saw the process of hanging them. It was very simple." As he said that, he shook Daohua's arm.

"Mom, I want to hang a lantern."

Daohua knows that children's curiosity cannot be suppressed blindly, otherwise the more you don't let him do it, the more he will do it. If he refuses this time, he might try it secretly next time he encounters something curious.

After thinking about it, Daohua said: "The eaves of our house are several times as high as yours. If you fall from above, it will be very painful. Do you still want to try it?"

Daozi hesitated for a moment, then nodded affirmatively: "I want to hang lanterns for my mother, and I also want to hang them for my ancestors, grandma, and Grandpa Chu."

Daohua smiled and rubbed Daozi's head: "Okay, mom promises you, but you have to wait until your father comes back."

Xiao Moreng was a little surprised when he saw that his aunt actually agreed to his childhood brother's request.

He still remembered that when he was seven or eight years old, his imperial grandfather sent several palace lanterns to the fourth prince's palace. At that time, he also wanted to hang them for his father and his mother and concubine in person, but unfortunately they were severely rejected by their mother and concubine.

He knew that his mother-in-law was doing it for his own good, but he still felt a little regretful in his heart.

Because for his own good, he has been unable to do many things since he was a child, and he doesn’t even know the reasons for many of them.

Seeing his aunt talking to her younger brother in a low voice, Xiao Mozhen suddenly felt a little envious.

The mother-in-law is very busy and rarely spends time with him like her aunt does with Daozi.

Daozi was a little impatient, and after receiving Daohua's permission, he couldn't sit still and kept asking when his father would come back so that he could hang up the lanterns.

Daohua took out a storybook and gave it to him, asking him to be quiet. When she raised her eyes, she noticed that Xiao Mozheng looked a little lonely, and walked over with a smile: "But you miss home?"

Xiao Moreng came back to his senses, raised his eyes and fell into a pair of concerned eyes: "Auntie, I don't have it."

Daohua smiled and pulled Xiao Moreng to sit down: "It's not shameful to be homesick. Are you afraid that your aunt will laugh at you? If I were you, I would be homesick too."

Xiao Moreng looked embarrassed.

Daohua laughed: "When your Uncle Wang comes back later, let him take you and Daozi to hang lanterns. Winter is boring, so you should do some activities."

Seeing Daozi looking over with stern eyes, Xiao Moreng smiled and nodded: "Okay."

It was approaching the end of the year, and there wasn't much going on in the yamen. Xiao Yeyang came back relatively early, and as soon as he came back, Daozi hugged his legs.

"Dad, mother asked you to take me and my fourth brother to hang lanterns."

Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua, who explained to him with a smile: "The little guy is curious. If you don't satisfy him, he will always think about it. You have the right to accompany them to relieve their boredom."

Xiao Yeyang looked at Daazi: "I can help you hang lanterns, but we have to make an agreement. You are not allowed to try dangerous things like this privately. You must get permission from adults. Do you understand?"

Daozi nodded hurriedly.

Xiao Yeyang went back to his house and changed into regular clothes, and then took Dao Zi and Xiao Mo Rong to hang lanterns all over the house.

Even though he is small, because he is raised well, he is as tall as six-year-old Xiao Mobao. His body is also strong. He has practiced boxing and kicking with Chu Lang for a while. When he climbs the stairs, his lower body is very stable, and his hands on the escalator are also strong.

I personally hung up the lanterns in the main courtyard, my curiosity was satisfied, and Daozi was extremely happy.

"Fourth brother, let's go and hang red lanterns in our ancestor's yard."

After General Gu Jian's courtyard was filled with red lanterns, the two moved to Guo Ruomei and Chu Lang's courtyard.

After half a day, looking at the red lanterns hanging high in the yard, both Dao Zi and Xiao Mo Reng felt a sense of accomplishment.

......

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve, and early in the morning, Xiao Moreng followed Xiao Yeyang's family of three to Nanshan Hall to pay New Year's greetings to Gu Jian.

Daozi and Xiao Moreng were both happy to receive red envelopes from their elders.

"Fourth brother, you have to keep your red envelopes. These are your wife's books."

Listening to Daozi's words, Xiao Mozhen looked a little embarrassed. He knew what his wife meant, but weren't these things prepared by his father and mother?

Also, Daozi is only four years old. Is it too early to consider such a thing at such a young age?

Dao Zi quickly put the red packet into his pocket and muttered: "The more my wife saves, the more choices she will have."

Xiao Moreng laughed: "Are you still afraid that Uncle Wang and Auntie won't care about you?"

Daozi thought for a while: "What's theirs belongs to them. If I use their things, should I choose what I like or what they like? So, it's better to save it yourself."

Xiao Moreng was stunned for a moment, and after a while he asked: "Why do you think so?"

Dao Zi shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, with a sad look on his face: "My mother said so." After saying that, he straightened his back, imitating Dao Hua's lesson, and raised his little orchid finger: "Eat me, drink from me, you have to

Listen to me."

Xiao Mo Reng looked at Dao Zi in surprise and gave him a thumbs up: "It's quite similar."
