Sure enough, for half a month, Yinzhen stayed at Nianhulu's house, and the others all lost favor.

On his birthday, the gifts sent by Tong Nuanyan did not attract Yinzhen's attention. He was completely bewitched by Nianhulu.

Tong Nuanyan is naturally happy to have a leisurely life, raising her children quietly in Piaoxue Courtyard. Isn't it good enough that no one is worrying about her?

She is not in a hurry, but there are people who are very anxious.

Fallen Plum Courtyard.

"Damn Niuhulu clan, I didn't expect that after two years of silence, they could still turn things around after losing their child!"

Dongying was standing by and shared the same hatred and was angry: "I don't know what kind of spell she used to seduce the prince for half a month."

Li Qinya felt extremely uncomfortable. When she was favored, she had never been favored for more than half a month. Even Tong Jia, whom she envied the most, did not have such a grand occasion.

"I was too lenient back then. I should have let Niuhulu die with her child!"

Just then, a small figure at the door trembled and made some noise, which made Dongying discover it.

"Concubine, there's someone at the door!"

Dongying rushed out and then brought in someone, the eldest princess Huai Ke!

Li Qinya looked at her daughter with some annoyance and asked, "What did you hear just now?"

Huai Ke was a little frightened. He shook his head and cried, "No, mother, I didn't hear anything!"

Li Qinya didn't believe anything he said, which made her feel even more disgusted. It turned out that Huai Ke came to collect a debt from her.

"If you go out and say something nonsense, don't be my daughter!"

Huai Ke is now ten years old, but due to malnutrition, he is a little thin, and there is not much flesh on his face, and his face is pale.

"Mother, I won't tell you, mother, please don't abandon me."

She knew that what Li Qinya said was not a lie to scare her, but that she really didn't want her. In her mother's eyes, there were only Hongyun and her younger brother Hongshi, and never her.

"Get up, and when you go back, forget about what happened tonight."

Li Qinya looked at Huai Ke who was leaving with dim eyes. When Huai Ke was born, the competition for favor between her, Fujin and Song was the most intense.

She didn't pay much attention to Huai Ke for two years after he was born, until she gave birth to Hongyan. The Fourth Master doted on her more because of the younger prince, so she gave her whole heart to Hongyan and paid less attention to Huai Ke.

It was not until Hongyan died and she gave birth to Hongyun that she remembered that she had a daughter.

But at that time, Huai Ke was already two years old and was not close to her. Whenever she saw Huai Ke, she would think of Hongyan who had died young.

The longer the time went on, the worse her relationship with Huai Ke became.

Li Qinya closed her eyes and stopped thinking about the past. She instructed Dongying, and the two had a detailed conversation, and a plan came into being.

Another half month has passed.

December of the 44th year of the Kangxi reign.

At the end of the year, there were several heavy snowfalls in winter, and the entire capital city was shrouded in white. There was a layer of white snow on the brick walls of Prince Yong's Mansion.

The eunuchs from each courtyard were sweeping the snow from the roofs and the ground.

Tong Nuanyan took the children to make a snowman in front of the yard. Because it had just snowed heavily, there was a thick layer of snow on the grass in the yard.

Hongzhao and Hongxi don't have to go to the study today. It's snowing heavily and the teacher has given them a day off.

At this moment, he was playing snowball fight with Xinyu not far away. They were having a great time, and laughter filled the whole yard.

The triplets were working together to build a snowman. Tong Nuanyan took a look and found that the body and head of the snowman were not very round, and even looked a bit ugly.

"Mom, look, my fifth and sixth brothers and I made a snowman~"

Jiaoyue's pink face smiled brightly. Because it was cold, her cheeks and nose were a little red. At this moment, she was talking to Tong Nuanyan happily.

"Hongyan doesn't even know how to make a snowman, mother, he destroyed it."

Hongxu on the side was a little angry. They originally planned to make a very round and beautiful snowman, but it turned out to be so ugly.

When Hongyan heard this, he, who was already a crybaby, was immediately filled with tears. He threw himself into the arms of Tong Nuanyan who was sitting there, and refused to show his face no matter what.

"Hongxu, Jiaoyue, come over here, mother."

Tong Nuanyan whispered, "What should we do if the children are upset?" She just let them solve it themselves.

Hongxu and Jiaoyue slowly moved in front of Tong Nuanyan, looking as if they had done something wrong, especially Hongxu, who lowered his head and said nothing.

"Mother, it's because Sixth Brother cries too much, Fifth Brother wants a beautiful snowman~"

Jiaoyue rolled her eyes, and she, who had always had a better relationship with Hongxu, immediately started to take her position, which made Tong Nuanyan laugh and cry.

"You, you're thinking about your fifth brother. Then your sixth brother is crying. Who do you think should apologize?"

When Hongxu heard this, he felt a little guilty. He carefully went forward to hug Hongyan, patted Hongyan's back gently with his little hands, and apologized softly:

"Hongyan, I'm sorry, I was wrong~"

At this time, Hong Yan finally raised his head from Tong Nuanyan's arms, wiped the tears from his face, pouted, and said:

"Fifth brother, I was wrong too. I made the snowman look ugly."

As Hongyan spoke, tears began to fall again. Jiaoyue said that there was a reason why he loved to cry, as he was the one who cried the most among Tong Nuanyan's children.

"Hongyan, stop crying. Mommy will build the most beautiful snowman with you guys, okay?"

"it is good!"

The triplets looked at her with shining eyes, obviously looking forward to it. There is no child who doesn't want to play with their parents.

The three people who were playing snowball fights over there saw this and felt a little envious when they saw their mother making a snowman with their younger brothers and sisters. They quickly gathered around and looked at Tong Nuanyan eagerly.

She felt a little amused. It seemed that she didn't spend enough time with the children.

"You guys can come too. Let's make the biggest and most beautiful snowman together today, okay?"

Hong Zhao: "Mother, I'll help you move the snow over there."

Hongxi: "Mother, there is more snow on the grass over there. I'll go get it."

Xin Yu: "Mother, my daughter recently embroidered some beautiful patterns. Bring them here to decorate the snowman~"

Hongxu Hongyan: "Mother, let us help you snowball~"

Jiaoyue: "Mother, I'm going to pick up some beautiful branches~"

For a moment, the whole yard became busy. In several visible places, there was a little boy and a few servants busying around.

Tong Nuanyan looked at the scene in front of her, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. Perhaps this is the happiness of having many children, she thought.

It took half an hour to complete the snowman.

In the snowy courtyard, a snowman more than one meter tall stood on the open ground, with many beautiful embroidered handkerchiefs adorning its chubby body.

The interweaving of various colors is surprisingly harmonious. The snowman's face is made of a few of the most common pebbles, which looks honest and cute, and is matched with a red hat and branches.

"The snowman is finished. Does it look good?"

Tong Nuanyan smiled and turned around, wanting to talk to the children behind her, but unexpectedly, the person she saw when she turned around was Yinzhen, whom she hadn't seen for more than a month.
