During the Mid-Autumn Festival, both the Queen Mother and the Crown Princess enjoyed moon cakes.
In addition to these two places, Princess Wu also sent home-made mooncakes.
Rongzheng asked someone to put a box of each item and ordered it to be sent to Scissor Hutong.
I heard that Mu Xuan has been looking for a house for her father and the others, and now she has spotted a house that also has three entrances and three exits.
We are still renovating and furnishing it, and plan to move there before the beginning of winter.
Du Mu also wanted to live in Beijing, but she had limited money and couldn't buy a house with three entrances and three exits at once like the Rong family did.
Mother Du asked Mrs.
Fang to help her, and Mrs.
Fang asked someone to rent a house to live in for the sake of her sister-in-law Du.
Du Hong also reviewed his homework at home every day and never stepped into Yangliu Hutong.
Rongzheng listened quietly to Xiao Wang's report and ate the dates leisurely without frowning.
The Du family had nothing to do with her.
Mrs.
Xiao Wang remembered something and said with a smile: "Grandma, you don't know yet.
I heard that the Liao family brother almost had an accident a while ago."
Rong Zheng asked indifferently: "What happened?"
Xiao Wang said: "I heard that the Liao brothers went out to drink wine and got into a fight with someone.
They also said that someone almost died.
Mrs.
Liao had no choice but to ask our elder to help, and the elder was not very happy at first. , and then somehow he agreed, and the Liao brothers were spared jail.”
Rong Zheng secretly wondered if she should give her uncle some encouragement and keep his family away from the Liao family.
Liao Xian was used to causing trouble, and Mrs.
Liao was the most unfeeling and unrighteous person.
If she got involved with such a family, she wouldn't be able to get rid of her if anything happened in the future.
The Mid-Autumn Festival was officially here, and Rong Jiang sent someone to send a message to Rong Zheng, asking Rong Zheng and Mu Xuan to go back to Scissor Hutong to celebrate the festival together.
Now that Ma Shi and Rong Sheng were gone, Rong Zheng agreed.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, September 12th is the Longevity Festival.
As a result, Mu Xuan was busy all day long.
When she came home every day, it would be the third watch in the morning and the third watch later in the day.
The days spent with Mu Xuan suddenly became less and less.
Rong Zheng spent all day at home doing needlework with the maids, doing housework, or playing with Sister Yuan.
The days were very simple and a bit boring.
On the seventh day of September, Rongzheng received a message from Princess Wu, asking Rongzheng to visit the other courtyard of Prince Wu's Mansion in Xishan during the Double Ninth Festival to enjoy chrysanthemums.
When Rongzheng received this post, she felt a little uneasy and consulted Mu Xuan.
Mu Xuan said without thinking: "I'm not at home these days, you might as well go out and walk around."
"You promise me to go" Mu Xuan smiled and said: "I have no reason to stop you.
Go for a day of fun, just take care of yourself and don't go hiking."
With Mu Xuan's permission, Rong Zheng decided to go to the annex of Prince Wu's Mansion in Xishan.
She didn't dress up deliberately, and brought two maids, Mei Fen and Qiu Ci, with her.
I have prepared several boxes of non-vegetarian snacks from Wufuzhai.
She took a carriage to the bottom of the mountain, and then changed to a bamboo sedan to go up the mountain.
Princess Wu had already ordered people to wait at the door.
When she saw Rong Zheng's sedan alighting, she immediately came to greet her.
"Good morning, Grandma Xuan.
You've had a hard journey."

Mei Fen and Qiu Ci from behind quickly came up to help Rong Zheng.
Rong Zheng got off the sedan chair, and she recognized the person speaking.
She was Princess Wu's roommate, and everyone else called her "Mother Shen."
With a smile on her face, Mother Shen saluted Rong Zheng again.
There was some wind, so Rong Zheng did not stay outside for long.
She entered the other courtyard under the guidance of Shen's mother.
After twists and turns, we finally came to a garden called "Qingyun".
As soon as she stepped into the moon cave door, she saw the gorgeous chrysanthemums blooming all over the yard.
It was just a little different from what she thought.
She thought that Princess Wu would invite a group of ladies from the capital to come here to enjoy the flowers, but she never expected that except for the maids who came and went to serve, there were no guests in the garden.
Mother Shen invited Rong Zheng to the bamboo house in Qingyun Garden.
At that time, Princess Wu was sitting leisurely in a black bamboo armchair, drinking tea, accompanied by her second daughter-in-law, Meng.
Following the maid's announcement, Princess Wu nodded to Meng.
Meng rushed out to welcome him.
Rongzheng had already walked up the stone steps with the help of the maid.
Mrs.
Meng lowered the curtain and walked out.
With a smile on her face, she said, "Grandma Xuan is here."
Rongzheng saw the woman in green standing at the door, nodded with a smile and said, "Excuse me."
Meng smiled and said, "Our princess has been waiting for a long time.
Grandma Xuan is here to invite her."
Unexpectedly, the maid opened the curtain for Rong Zheng herself without bothering her.
Rong Zheng thanked her, stepped through the threshold, and under the guidance of the maid, came to a room next door.
Princess Wu was sitting at the top, with a small sunflower-style table in front of her, and a set of sweet white porcelain tea sets on the table.
There are also several armchairs made of black lacquered bamboo next to them.
The chairs are covered with blue satin and elongated ink brocade.
Rongzheng stepped forward to salute Princess Wu, but Princess Wu hurriedly said: "Please don't do it now.
Why do you need these false gifts now that you have so many inconveniences?"
Meng personally pulled Rong Zheng and asked her to sit in the first armchair to the left of Princess Wu.
Meng said attentively again: "Grandma Xuan, do you want to drink Longjing or Biluochun?"
Rong Zheng smiled and replied: "I don't drink tea."
Princess Wu frowned and said: "What kind of tea does she drink when she is pregnant?
I just prepared pear soup today.
It is moisturizing.
Go and get it."
Meng Shi smiled and agreed: "The princess is still smart, and the daughter-in-law almost forgot."
Rong Zheng said hurriedly: "Why bother Second Grandma to do it herself?"
Princess Wu smiled and said: "You sit down, she is a junior, it is her turn to take care of her."
Rongzheng had no choice but to sit down.
Although the two families had quite a lot of contact, Rongzheng was still a little nervous when facing Princess Wu.
She had no choice but to find something to say.
"I saw a lot of chrysanthemums blooming outside, they are really beautiful."
"Yes, the flowers are blooming so well, that's why I invited you to come and visit me.
There's no point in being bored at home."
Rong Zheng smiled and nodded, and added: "It's okay, I'm used to it.

Women are not as good as men and can't get out easily."
Princess Wu stood up and came forward to help Rong Zheng herself and wanted to go to the garden with her.
Rongzheng was a little flattered.
She took a step back and said, "How dare you trouble the princess?
She has a maid."
Mei Fen and Qiu Ci, who were behind her, quickly stepped forward to help Rongzheng.
Princess Wu smiled and said to Rong Zheng: "We are of the same generation.
If you don't mind being displeased, you can call me sister-in-law."
Calling the person who might become the queen sister-in-law, Rong Zheng was beating her heart, but she didn't dare to think about it.
Princess Wu found Rong Zheng's timid appearance very interesting.
She thought that she came from a small family and had never seen much of the world.
She could be frightened by just a few words.
"The princess has a body of gold and jade, how can I dare to be with the princess?"
Princess Wu laughed and covered her mouth with a silk hand.
They left the house and wandered slowly in the garden.
Rong Zheng said curiously: "I thought the princess invited many people to join in the fun, why did she just invite me?"
Princess Wu said: "I have not recovered from my illness, and I am afraid of noise when there are many people.
I thought you would be fine at home, so I invited you to come and have a look.
Come and see the flowers we have here."
As she said that, she bent down and sniffed gently.
He sniffed a green chrysanthemum as big as a wine cup.
"Green flowers are rare.
Such varieties are very rare."
"It has another name.
It's called Jade Green Yingying.
It's very beautiful.
If you like it, I'll have two pots packed up and sent to you later."
Rong Zheng said hurriedly: "How can I win the princess's love?"
Princess Wu smiled and said: "You are quite interesting.
No matter how good you are, you are just a potted flower.
How can it be stronger than the love between the sisters?"
This princess is so powerful that Rong Zheng often feels speechless.
After walking around for a while, Princess Wu was afraid that Rong Zheng would be tired, so she quickly asked someone to move a chair and invite Rong Zheng to sit under the tree.
Another maid brought a large glass plate with a few chrysanthemums that had just been picked.
Red, yellow, purple, and pink ones are very beautiful when kept in glass dishes.
Princess Wu casually picked up a yellow crab-claw chrysanthemum and asked the maid to put it on for her.
Then he asked Rongzheng to choose, but Rongzheng couldn't refuse and chose a red dahlia.
Meng said that she would put it on for Rong Zheng.
Mrs.
Meng praised: "Our grandma Xuan's hair grows really well.
It's thick and shiny.
I don't know how to keep it."
Before Rong Zheng could answer, Princess Wu scolded her daughter-in-law: "You should call me aunt."
Only then did Meng change her words and said, "Auntie, don't blame me, I'm so frivolous."
Rongzheng felt more and more embarrassed.

Mrs.
Meng saw the rose with red coral beads on Rong Zheng's bun and exclaimed, "The beaded flower on Auntie's head is so beautiful."
Rong Zheng smiled and said, "It was given by my grandma before."
Meng turned around and smiled at Princess Wu: "I'll ask my grandma later if she has such a treasure."
Princess Wu said overjoyed: "I'm afraid your grandma's treasure will be given to your aunt."
"That's true.
Grandma has so many granddaughters, and I am not the one she cares about the most."
Meng kept staring at Rongzheng's pearl flowers.
Rongzheng reached out and took it off and put it in Meng's hand.
Just when Meng thought Rongzheng was so generous and willing to give her the treasure given by her grandma, and was about to thank her, she heard Rongzheng say: "Grandma can see more clearly this way."
Meng smiled and said: "That's true."
She walked to Princess Wu holding the pearl flowers.
Princess Wu took it and looked at it carefully, nodded and said: "It is indeed a good thing."
Meng hurriedly snatched it from Princess Wu's hand and quickly put it on her head.
She smiled and said to Rongzheng: "Auntie, please lend me to wear it for two days.
I don't like this."
Princess Wu pretended to be angry and said: "I have short eyesight and have never seen good things.
Return it to your aunt quickly."
Seeing this, Rong Zheng could only say, "If grandma likes it, I can wear it for a few days."
When Meng heard about it, she was very happy and quickly blessed Rongzheng.
Then she went around showing off her new beaded flowers.
Princess Wu said apologetically: "I made you laugh.
Although he looks about the same age as you, he often makes people feel like a child.
He is no older or younger in front of my mother-in-law."
Rong Zheng said with a smile: "That's because the princess dotes on her daughter-in-law, otherwise she wouldn't be able to let go like this in front of the princess."
Princess Wu took advantage of the situation and said: "You are so well-behaved and sensible, your mother-in-law should also pamper you and love you."
Rongzheng thought to herself that she and Princess Yu had only had a few contacts in total.
She was not sensitive to such a mother-in-law.
Now that Princess Wu mentioned it, her face was slightly embarrassed and she just said vaguely: "It doesn't count."
Princess Wu then asked Rong Zheng when her due date was, and whether all the supplies for the baby were ready, etc.
Rong Zheng only answered questions and didn't dare to say anything else.
We stayed there until late afternoon, and then we said we were leaving.
At that time, Princess Wu was no longer in Qingyun Garden.
She asked the maid from another courtyard to help deliver the message, but the maid came back and told Rong Zheng: "Our princess has entered the palace.
Before she left, she asked Grandma Xuan to stay with us for one night.
Go back again.”
Rong Zheng became a little anxious and said, "No, I have to rush back today."
"Our princess is not at home, please wait a little longer, grandma.
Our princess is back, and the slaves will report on grandma's behalf."
Rongzheng thought that there was no reason to say goodbye without saying goodbye.
She had no choice but to be patient and wait.
The maid turned around and went to the courtyard of the upper house and told Meng about Rongzheng's situation.
Meng nodded and said, "Okay, send a few more people to guard her and prevent her from running out of the garden."
Here she went to the inner room.
Princess Wu was lying on the couch and resting with her eyes closed.

Princess Wu heard the movement and without opening her eyes, she knew it was Meng and said, "Is he still stable?"
Meng said: "I'm afraid it can be stable for a while."
Princess Wu sighed and said: "It's really impossible to let her sleep a little longer.
The key is tonight, we can't let her go.
Everything will be over tomorrow morning."
Meng hesitated for a moment and said: "But she is pregnant after all, so she doesn't dare to put things down casually, in case something happens later.
I'm afraid that Uncle Xuan won't let us go."
"People who want to achieve great things should be afraid of these things.
The prince's affairs are the most important, so go over and stabilize her for me for as long as you can.
If it doesn't work, just use the method I taught you.
There must be no mistakes. " Meng had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.
Her father-in-law was planning an earth-shattering event.
Although she didn't know exactly what it was, she could definitely invite the daughter-in-law of the left commander of the Guards to come to her home and put her under house arrest.
She was definitely not a servant.
She is timid and has not experienced anything, so she can't help but be a little scared.
Following her mother-in-law's order, Meng came to Qingyun Garden.
Rongzheng was a little restless, and finally saw Meng coming, so she hurriedly said: "You're here, I want to go back.
The weather lately is no better than the Mid-Autumn Festival, it gets dark earlier and earlier.
I have to be delayed on the way, for fear of going back.
I couldn’t get into the city in time for the curfew.”
Meng smiled and said: "What are you worried about, aunt?
There are a lot of empty rooms here, and there are also a lot of empty beds.
If you can't go back, you will have to sleep all night.
I will send someone to send aunt back tomorrow.
Besides, our princess is not at home, After I go to the palace, I have to let the princess know that my aunt is leaving.
If my aunt has nothing to do, why don't I play two games of chess with my aunt."
Rongzheng had no choice but to play chess with Meng.
Meng's every move was very slow, as if he had to think about it for a long time.
Rong Zheng was a little impatient with the waiting, so she had to look around.
Later, I discovered that the red coral bead flower on Meng's head was missing, and I felt a little confused.
But she had promised to borrow Meng's Dai for two days, and now she asked again.
It was inevitable that she would be suspected of wanting to go back immediately.
In the end, people would say that she was stingy
