Chapter 179 Princess, you must be ready
"Then why did you keep stopping me from leaving the palace today?"
Chuntao and Taohua looked at each other. Were they discovered so quickly?
They exchanged eye contact, and Xia Qingqing saw it all. She couldn't hide her expressions, so there was no way he would betray her.
He sat down on the stone bench next to him and asked.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?"
The two looked at each other, not knowing whether to tell this matter. Xia Qingqing saw that they hadn't said it yet.
"If you don't tell me, I'm going to leave."
Xia Qingqing thought that they might be thinking of asking her to give them something.
Chuntao and Taohua spoke up immediately upon seeing this.
"No, no, no, Princess, can't we just talk about it?"
Xia Qingqing originally wanted to trick them, and sure enough, she really said it.
"The Emperor asked us to keep this a secret. He must have something to give you, so you should not go out today."
Xia Qingqing thought about it. What should I give her? Why should I give her something?
Xia Qingqing did not leave the palace all day today. She was stopped when she wanted to go to the amusement palace. She could not even leave the palace.
I don't know why you are keeping me in suspense. What is going on?
Xia Qingqing didn't know, but she still stayed in the palace as ordered. When she was bored, she asked Chuntao and others to open up a piece of land on an empty lot.
She wants to plant some vegetables on this land, and it is okay to plant vegetables at this time.
Chuntao and the others felt helpless, but in order to prevent the princess from talking about her journey to the palace, they had no choice but to grow vegetables.
The piece of open space was very small, and it was opened up in no time. By scattering some seeds, we would be able to eat vegetables in no time.
After planting vegetables, I sit in a rocking chair under the tree, reading a book while enjoying the breeze. It’s very leisurely.
Xia Qingqing felt particularly relaxed today, probably because she didn't need to go out.
She has been going out all the time and doing various things during this period, which has indeed put a lot of pressure on her small body that it shouldn't have to bear.
Now that she has some free time, she feels very relaxed, which makes Xia Qingqing feel that this is what life is all about.
After the sun set and it became dark, Xia Qingqing was told that she could go out. Xia Qingqing stretched her muscles and walked towards the door.
At this time Chuntao and Taohua looked at her mysteriously and said.
"Princess, you must be ready."
Xia Qingqing looked at their mysterious expressions and became a little expectant. She wanted to see what was behind this.
As soon as the door of the palace was opened, one could see a bright scene outside with lanterns hanging overhead.
Each lantern has a different shape, and when they are all hung overhead, it makes the outside very bright.
Normally, one needs to hold a lantern in hand to see the road clearly, but now the light is very bright, which makes Xia Qingqing very surprised.
Could this be a surprise?
Although I had a hunch today, I still didn't expect it to be like this.
Such a shocking scene is still shocking.
His eyes were slightly wide open as he looked at the lantern above his head, and his mouth couldn't close. He was looking at the lantern above his head all the way. It was really beautiful.
A servant had been waiting at the door for a long time, "Princess, the emperor wants you to go to Ning'an Palace for dinner."
Xia Qingqing nodded and followed the servant to Ning'an Palace.
When she arrived at Ning'an Palace, every palace maid was there to greet her. Xia Xuan, the queen, and her two brothers had been waiting for her here for a long time.
They sat on the stone table outside, which was lit with lanterns, so they could all see the situation on the table clearly.
The table was filled with delicious food, but it was not as gorgeous as before and looked like ordinary home-cooked meals.
Seeing Xia Qingqing coming, Xia Zhao waved at her.
"Nannan, come quickly!"
Xia Qingqing walked over, looked at the dishes on the table, then looked at them and asked.
"Dad, Mom, Brother, is today a good day? Why did it turn out like this?"
Those people all smiled and said.
"Today is your birthday, didn't you forget it?"
Xia Qingqing was confused. Was it her birthday today? She looked at Xia Yi beside her, and he nodded to confirm.
Xia Qingqing just remembered that today was her birthday. She had indeed forgotten it.
"Looking at you like this, I know you have forgotten. You really don't care about yourself at all now."
Xia Qingqing touched her head and chuckled. She really hadn't remembered this day. She now felt that there was no need to celebrate her birthday.
Xia Xuan smiled and picked up a dish and put it in her bowl, saying.
"You said before that you just wanted to celebrate your birthday with your family, and you didn't need anyone else to come. Look, our family is here."
Xia Qingqing didn't expect that Xia Xuan actually remembered these words. She really felt that it was quite tiring to arrange various things for those people with whom she had a bad relationship on their birthday.
It's not cost-effective to spend so much money. It's better to just have a simple meal at home.
This is what she wanted, she smiled with narrowed eyes.
"Thank you, Daddy. This is the best way."
Xia Xuan laughed and pointed at the food on top and said.
"That's great, come and try the food your mother and I prepared for you!"
Not only Xia Qingqing, but even Xia Zhao and Xia Yi looked at the two of them in disbelief.
Several people looked at each other and asked in disbelief.
"Dad and Mom, did you really make these dishes?"
She needs to consider whether you can eat the food here.
But when I think about the fact that they cooked for me in order to celebrate my birthday, it would be a lie to say that I wasn't touched. They are the emperor and empress after all.
As for the cooking thing, it's impossible for it to happen to them no matter how hard you try.
"It was made by your mother and father. These vegetables and poultry were all freshly picked from mother's vegetable garden."
“That must be very fresh and delicious!!”
Xia Qingqing's emotional value was very accurate, making the two of them laugh.
But Xia Zhao and Xia Yi didn’t think so. Anyway, they didn’t dare to eat it.
Xia Qingqing looked at the table full of food and thought about what to eat. She decided to eat some vegetables first. They couldn't be bad.
In order not to disappoint my parents, I have to eat everything even if it tastes bad. No matter how bad it tastes, it is just too salty.
She picked up a dish and everyone watched her eat it. The two brothers just watched to see if she could eat it, and if so, they ate it.
Xia Xuan and the Queen looked at Xia Qingqing expectantly. Seeing this, Xia Qingqing swallowed her saliva and put it carefully into her mouth.
