MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince-Chapter 506 It’s New Year’s Eve again

 Chapter 506 It’s New Year’s Eve again

Du Wan thought of the crying woman next to Mu Si'an when he was rescued last night.

 Unexpected, she really didn’t expect it at the time. I thought he was a gentle and weak person, but I didn't expect that he was actually a dark-hearted person.

Pei Hao also told the hidden story of Mu Si'an's accident yesterday, "My grandpa was infected with wind and cold a few days ago and has been bedridden. He was supposed to move to a tent for the past two days, but my second uncle ignored the secular affairs. I left all the affairs of the back house to my second aunt. I don’t know what she thought, but she never set up the tent..."

“Isn’t it because there’s an earthquake and we haven’t set up yet?” Du Wan couldn’t help but vomit.

Pei Hao said helplessly, "Yes, Mu Mansion has become a joke this time."

The master's family is fine, but the servants in the mansion suffered serious casualties.

Fortunately for Mr. Mu, Mu Si'an went back at that time and happened to visit the sick old man. When he felt the earthquake coming, Mu Si'an immediately rushed into the house and stuffed Mr. Mu under the bed. , On the contrary, he missed the opportunity and was hit, but luckily he was found in time.

Just as Pei Hao had worried before, if a servant hadn't seen it, it would have been very difficult for Mu Si'an to survive after another hour or two.

Du Wan didn’t know what to say about this.

 This is, after all, a family matter, and it is not easy for outsiders to interfere. No wonder Pei Hao was so angry last night. He only took Mu Si'an and the old man back home, and packed up his second uncle and his wife, their children, etc. and sent them to another hospital.

 At this time, there were footsteps outside.

It was Ningqin and Luoqi who came in with food boxes, placed them on the tea table next to them, and added Pei Hao's dishes and chopsticks at the same time.

Du Wan smiled and said, "Come here and have breakfast with me."

 “I’ve had it this morning.”

 “What’s the matter with another meal? It’s almost noon now.”

 “Ha, you still have the nerve to say that? You slept in late today.”

“Ha, are you laughing at me? Have you forgotten that I was the one who carried you back home last night? Your parents thought you were injured and took the doctor to see Ting Yu Ju.”

  Can “…” not be short-circuited?

Pei Hao's mouth twitched, and he pretended to be calm, as if the person the little girl was talking about was not him. He didn't expect that the little girl would send her back and watch a joke at his house.

Du Wan ate a leek dumpling and found that it was good, so he put one in his bowl and said, "Eat quickly, fresh vegetable dumplings can't be eaten anywhere except Princess Mansion."

“Huh?” Pei Hao thought what she said was fresh. He took a bite of the dumpling and saw the leek filling inside. “There are still vegetables in this winter. Are they produced in your village?”

“Yes! Next time if there is any extra, I will send some to the Duke’s Mansion.”

“Okay, thank you Wanwan in advance.”

 “You’re so rude.” Du Wan chuckled.

Pei Hao smiled cheekily and said, "Why are you so polite to your own family?"

　Du Wan: "..." You are awesome!

 There are some vegetables grown in the greenhouse in Zhuangzi.

 The quantity is limited, and it is only available to the master of the Princess Mansion for the time being.

This is because Du Wan knew that food was tight and there were few vegetables grown in greenhouses. Zhuang Cong used almost all the land to grow sweet potatoes. In this world, it is not difficult for nobles to get something to eat, and it is rare for the people who follow them to have enough to eat. It is impossible for the master to eat well and let the people below eat grass. This will easily lead to instability and chaos.

Du Wan knew that the princess's residence had many people.

　　Excluding hundreds of servants, the number of guards around the masters alone totaled 1,600 to 700 people. Including the secret guards, the number exceeded 2,000. Of course, she didn't need a little girl to worry about feeding these people. The problem was that as a member of the princess's house, she had to take precautions.

 That’s right, the farm is her escape route to the Princess Mansion.

 She hoped that this escape route would not be used by the Princess Mansion.

Moreover, not having to use it can be regarded as the icing on the cake. In other words, it can make the burden on the shoulders of father and eldest brother easier.

 After having breakfast. Pei Hao left, and Du Wan received news from his personal guards.

The farm is in good condition and the damage is not serious. However, I heard that in the previous village, some peach blossoms collapsed in the peach forest, and a ditch opened in the ground, revealing a stone room, but there was nothing in it.

 Du Wan: “…”

 Happy that things have been moved. Otherwise, this earthquake will be exposed.

 A few days passed.

 During the earthquake, after the initial panic and confusion, it gradually returned to calm.

This calm was due to the emperor spending another sum of money to rebuild the homes of the people affected by the disaster.

 The emperor gained a wave of reputation and became the biggest winner.

 In the meantime, Xie Zhang arranged the disaster relief work properly and received a commendation from the emperor, asking him to keep up his efforts and continue to contribute to the court and do practical things for the people. These were official brainwashing words.

Pei Hao has not shown up for a few days since his last visit.

Today is New Year’s Eve, it’s not snowing, but it’s extremely cold.

Early in the morning at the Princess Mansion, the whole family sat together eating hot pot, talking and laughing constantly. The only regret is that Du Qian is not at home, but the couple is still very happy with Du Wan present.

Du Huima smiled and said: "When we finish eating, we will return to the clan."

“Yeah, yeah.” Du Wan stuffed a piece of meat into her mouth, “I understand, I’m going to worship my ancestors tomorrow morning. I’m familiar with this process.”

 “Haha.” Du Malang laughed.

The eldest princess asked, "Do you want Tuantuan to participate?"

"He is still young, not yet one year old." Du Huima was not happy to let his youngest son go to the cold weather. "Even if I could afford to let him go, the patriarch and the others would not agree."

 The eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief.

Du Wan glanced at the little kid who was sleeping soundly in the cradle next to her. Thinking about the ancestor worship last year, she couldn't help but shudder. "It's not necessary when Tuan Tuan is still young. At least wait until he grows up. It's best." You should go there when you are five or six years old. Mother, you have never gone to worship ancestors in person, so you may not know the process, it is very... tiring. "

"What are you talking about? Children in the clan must go to worship their ancestors when they are one year old at the earliest and three years old at the latest."

  …"Can't argue, it's pointless, the little kid doesn't have to go this year anyway.

 A hot pot meal doesn’t take long.

 In front of the gate of the Princess Mansion, there were more than a dozen carriages parked.

 The servants moved back and forth to carry out many gift boxes to the car. At the same time, the guards were standing outside, on standby at any time.

　　The whole family was dressed thickly, even with their hoods on, and they came out surrounded by servants.

The eldest princess got into the car first with her child in her arms, followed by Prince Consort Du.

Du Wan chose to ride a horse this time. What was eye-catching was that in addition to the royal whip wrapped around her waist today, the princess also had a long sword hanging on her waist. It was exactly the ring-headed sword she used to hang when going out. Almost The sword that became her trademark.

The fleet traveling to the Princess Mansion is vast and large in size.

 When ordinary people see someone from a distance, they immediately avoid it.

 So, it was a smooth journey out of the city.
