Zhao Yuanrong sat in the small courtyard, lying on the stone table boredly and staring at the study door.

Halfway through the game of hide and seek, he was not interested in Lin Xi joining him, and he was ...... Lonely men and widows, why can't you open the door and say what you have to say! Besides, he's just a kid, so what can he do!

"Shizi, the sun is about to set, and it's getting cold outside, why don't you go back to the house first, and when the young master comes out, the slave will come and inform you?" Mother Zhou coaxed softly.

Zhao Yuanrong turned his head and ignored her.

In this world, I am afraid that there is no one else except Lin Xi who can make him obedient, even his father has to use the words coercion and temptation.

Zhou's mother couldn't, so she had to call the little girl to bring him a cloak and put it on, and looked at the study with some concern.

As long as Pei Xuan came, Lin Xi's mood could be much lower.

At this time, the door of the study creaked open, and Pei Xuan and Lin Xi walked out one after the other. Zhao Yuanrong jumped off the stone bench all of a sudden, threw off his cloak and ran towards Lin Xi, stuffing his hand into his cousin's hand, and at the same time glaring at Pei Xuan, as vigilant as a thief.

The two of them, who were still sad, were suddenly left crying and laughing.

Pei Xuan looked at Lin Xi and sighed helplessly: "Since the junior brother has decided, even if the brother doesn't agree, it's not good to say anything, but you must be cautious in the future...... Alas, this is something that can't be prevented, why should Xi'er insist on it, stay in Qingshan and always don't worry about no firewood, the teacher has a spirit in the sky, and I don't want you to be in danger......"

"Senior brother." Lin Xi stopped Pei Xuan's words, let go of Zhao Yuanrong's hand, and solemnly raised his hand and knocked, "Today you can tell the truth and warn, the junior brother is very grateful, please don't say anything superfluous." ”

Once Lin Xi decides something, few people can change it, Pei Xuan choked for a moment, and could only smile bitterly, "The Yongning Marquis Mansion can't keep your ...... That's it, you're doing it yourself. ”

Zhao Yuanrong listened to it, but the two of them were in a fog, he was really confused, but Pei Xuan's last sentence he understood, and immediately said categorically: "There is a father to protect my cousin!" ”

Then he turned his head and smiled at Lin Xi, "And Rong'er!" The little chest was straight, but he was confident and proud, and he hummed twice at Pei Xuan.

But his father said that in his absence, he would follow him every step of the way, and his cousin would be theirs in the future.

Lin Xi couldn't cry or laugh for a while, but when Zhao Yuanrong was so stirred, the uneasiness in his heart slowly disappeared.

He couldn't help but gently squeeze Zhao Yuanrong's little hand, and he didn't know what to think, so he bent his eyebrows.

Pei Xuan looked at this big and small, but what should have been happy couldn't help but make him frown, he suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and nodded, "That's very good, Xi'er, I'll leave for my brother." ”

"It's not early, why don't you have dinner together and leave?"

Lin Xi invited politely, and Pei Xuan saw that Zhao Yuanrong was very unhappy, so he shook his head, "No, I should also go back and salute." ”

Leaving the Yongning Marquis Mansion, Pei Xuan turned around and looked at the plaque hanging high.

Ah Xi asked blankly, "Childe, where are we going next?" ”

"Back to the inn." Pei Xuan replied softly.

The water in the capital is deep, and what I did before was really short-sighted, harming others and myself.

When he left by mistake, he saw a plain carriage coming and stopped at the gate of the Hou Mansion.

Pei Xuan stopped for a while, saw Steward Lin, who had not been seen for a long time, get out of the car, and acted in a hurry, and also noticed that he was about to walk towards the Hou Mansion.

Steward Lin can also be regarded as watching Pei Xuan grow up, and after seven or eight years of relationship, Pei Xuan couldn't help but call: "Uncle Lin." ”

Steward Lin turned his head and was a little surprised, "Young Master Pei." ”

"Exactly." Pei Xuan arched his hand and said with a smile, "Uncle Lin is in such a hurry, but Xi'er has something?" ”

Speaking of this, Steward Lin's face changed, and he reluctantly said: "It's not a big deal, if Pei Gongzi is fine, I will go back to the young master, and you should take care of your body when you are out alone." ”

"Uncle Lin, please."

Steward Lin didn't say much anymore and entered the Yongning Marquis Mansion.

Pei Xuan was thoughtful.

At this moment, Lin Xi took Zhao Yuanrong to accompany Mrs. Tai to dinner in Chongjin Hall.

Mrs. Tai has a lot of children and grandchildren, but the children and grandchildren are all older, and the daughter-in-law who marries the daughter-in-law also has more troubles inside and out, and even if she eats at the same table without talking, the careful thoughts that can't be hidden in her eyes also make her bored, because she rarely lets the juniors accompany her to eat.

Until Lin Xi arrived.

Lin Xi eats in small bites like a kitten eating, a bowl of rice can be eaten for most of the day, and the amount of food is naturally not large. As a young master, there is no special kitchen, Mrs. Tai feels sorry for the frail and sick little grandson, so she often asks him to accompany her to eat, every time Qi's mother will secretly note down the dishes that Lin Xi moved a few more chopsticks, and Chongjintang's small kitchen can naturally be done as long as Lin Xi comes.

Of course, today, in addition to Lin Xi, there is also Zhao Yuanrong.

However, when it came to the meal, people from all rooms and courtyards came, except for the Bai family, who stayed to take care of the children, and Yongning Hou and Xiao Siye, who were still in the yamen, sat at a full table.

When Zhao Yuanrong arrived at the Hou Mansion, he stayed in Lanyue Xuan all the time, except for the Liu family who took people to visit twice, everyone was not allowed to see him.

Today, while Mrs. Tai invited dinner, everyone got the news and came.

At the time of eating

The maids who were waiting around lowered their heads and tried their best to hold back their laughter, several mothers covered their mouths and looked dumbfounded, and the people who sat in the circle also looked at them in dismay.

I saw Lin Gongzi and Zhao Shizi sitting side by side, Lin Xi ate elegantly and chewed slowly, pleasing to the eye, there was no sound, and he looked like a noble son. However, Zhao Yuanrong didn't say anything about sprinkling rice grains along the rice bowl when he ate, and learned Lin Xi to hold chopsticks, but he couldn't hold them steadily and often dropped the dishes, and after trying hard a few times, he finally puffed up. Until Lin Xi whispered, "Rong'er, use a spoon." Only then did he pick up the spoon and eat the ping-pong extremely domineering.

The difference between the two hatchbacks is too great.

And Lin Xi didn't care about him, just took some dishes that Zhao Yuanrong couldn't reach from time to time and put them in his bowl. And Zhao Yuanrong also likes to put a few chopsticks into Lin Xi's bowl, and the two of them are quite happy to eat as if no one is around.

Liu and Shan looked at each other, and found that the old lady also looked unhappy, and wondered in their hearts that they didn't know how this habit was formed.

Not to mention a few young ladies and young masters, some sympathetic and a little puzzled, why don't you let people feed them instead of making a mess? And there is no shortage of those who are subordinate.

Zhao Yuanrong's appearance now is not good, he looks like a wild child, and his clothes are dirty.

When Xiao Jinping returned to her parents' house, the prince was clean like a jade child, and Gu's mother fed her very finely. But I didn't want this situation to become like this in just a few months, seeing Mrs. Tai and Liu's frowning, I couldn't help but feel secretly distressed, blaming Zhao Jingyi for not caring about the child, and this time I didn't even send my close nurse mother.

The son of the family, who is not decent and tidy, has a small child, and also has a nurse or maid to wait for him to eat and change clothes, if he does not fall into a mess by himself.

This is a child without a mother!

Liu finally couldn't look past it, and motioned to Mother Lu behind him.

Mother Lu had been waiting for a long time, and when she got Liu's hint, she immediately walked over and coaxed: "Master Shizi, let Mother Lu feed you." ”

Zhao Yuanrong, an irrelevant person, didn't raise his head and ignored her.

Mother Lu reached for his bowl.

This prince's temper is not small, but his bowl can be moved by anyone? Seeing that he was about to have a seizure, Lin Xi saw this, so he had no choice but to say, "Mother Lu, let Rong'er eat it herself." Seeing that Lu's mother was about to speak, she added, "This is what the prince ordered." ”

Liu said: "The prince is really messing around, Rong'er is only six years old, how can he do it himself, the maid and the mother-in-law are all decorations?" When people are big, they will naturally be. ”

As she spoke, she got up in person, and Xiao Jinxin immediately said, "Mother, let's come with me, Rong'er is afraid that she will be born." ”

Saying that, he left the table and walked to Zhao Yuanrong's side, "Rong'er, it's good for my aunt to feed you, let's eat slowly, whatever we like, we will clip whatever we like." ”

Zhao Jingyi used Lin Xi's coercion and temptation, and finally made Zhao Yuanrong compromise, and later came to the Yongning Marquis Mansion in Lanyue Xuan for a few days, but there was no one to serve him, and the two nephews and uncles chewed carefully, and the other was heroic, and no one else was happy to pick up vegetables from each other.

Zhao Yuanrong found the fun, but he was unwilling.

However, before he had a seizure, Lin Xi said: "Cousin is kind, but Rong'er can do it herself, so you don't have to bother you to serve him a bowl and feed him, let's sit down and eat together." ”

It's just that Lin Xi was kind, but Xiao Jinxin didn't want to accept it, she smiled lightly and said: "Cousin, Rong'er is my sister's only flesh and blood, when my sister is still there, when I come back, I don't have a decent and thoughtful service, even if she is not here, Rong'er is the son of Prince Rui, and I have no reason to let him do it himself as a sister." My cousin is a man, and it's nothing if I'm careless, but my sister can't stand it, so it's better to have a meal tomorrow, and my sister will send someone to pick him up and eat in my courtyard. ”

This girl still seems to remember that when the full moon wine, Zhao Yuanrong abandoned her and went to herself, but it is also quite annoying, this is a serious aunt.

Lin Xi couldn't cry or laugh when she was looked at by Xiao Jinxin's aggressive gaze, and the little girl's heart was angry.

It seems that he did it on purpose.

He glanced at Zhao Yuanrong, this kid didn't even give face to his father, where would he give face to others.

Sure enough, before Xiao Jinxin stretched out his hand, Zhao Yuanrong refused: "I eat it myself, I don't need my aunt." Saying that, he said to Lin Xinu very annoyingly, "Cousin, I want to eat the cloud legs over there." ”

A sneer was very low, but she could still hear it clearly, Xiao Jinxin's face flushed, and when she turned around, she saw Xiao Jinlan holding a handkerchief to cover her mouth, she glared fiercely, Xiao Jinlan pretended to wipe the corners of her mouth again, and naturally lowered her head to drink soup.

Lin Xi was about to stretch out his chopsticks, but Xiao Jinxin had already put them in Zhao Yuanrong's bowl, and glanced at Lin Xi as if demonstrating.

Lin Xi immediately swallowed "cloud legs are greasy, or eat less" back into his mouth.

But it's the same cloud leg, will Zhao Yuanrong eat it obediently if he changes to a clip? He just wanted to enjoy his cousin's care of him, and he didn't care what he ate.

Zhao Yuanrong was about to pick up the cloud leg out of the bowl, but saw Lin Xi come over with chopsticks and vegetables, looked at him with a smile and said, "Rong'er eat more." ”

Ancestor, this cloud leg threw out your bowl, believe it or not, this girl immediately burst into tears, and she still had to give some face.

Zhao Yuanrong pouted, and the boss unhappily sent the cloud leg into his mouth along with the green vegetables he didn't like to eat.

Then the bowl was put down and I didn't eat it.

"Let's go find Zhou's mother to wash and change clothes." Lin Xi knew his awkwardness very well.

When Mrs. Tai saw that there was still half a bowl of rice, she asked, "Rong'er is full?" ”

Zhao Yuanrong didn't speak, and went to find Zhou's mother by himself.

Liu saw that Xiao Jinxin's face was not good, so he said, "Xin'er, you go and make a bowl of noodles for Rong'er, remember what Rong'er likes very much." ”

This is to give a step, and let Xiao Jinxin hide out by the way.

Xiao Jinxin's face slowed down, and she reluctantly raised a smile and said, "Okay, I'm the best at this." ”

However, don't underestimate an awkward and stubborn child, Zhao Yuanrong said without giving face: "I want my cousin to do it." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Jinxin's face suddenly turned white.

"Xin'er—" Liu shouted, but saw that Xiao Jinxin had already covered her face and ran out.

Xiao Jinlan couldn't hold back anymore, lowered her head and laughed, Xiao Yuqi couldn't help but say to her, "Second sister!" ”

"Mother, I'll go see her." Xiao Yuheng had no choice but to stand up and chase him out, and glanced at Lin Xi angrily before going out.

Lin Xi felt that he was too innocent.

However, Zhao Yuanrong here is still waiting for an answer.

Lin Xi said angrily: "I won't!" ”

The gentleman cooks far away, of course he won't.

"Sister Yuan said that my cousin will be * egg noodles." Zhao Yuanrong unceremoniously debunked him.

Bear kids!

I asked him to sing lullabies that day, and today I want him to lay egg noodles, is it time to breastfeed the day after tomorrow?

Lin Xi felt the strange gazes around him, and felt that if he didn't agree, he didn't know what else this little ancestor would shake out, so he had to agree, "Okay, I'll do it, but no matter how undelicious it is, you have to eat it." ”

Zhao Yuanrong was satisfied, his face was full of joy, and he went to wash and change clothes with Zhou's mother.

With such a fuss, who is still in the mood to have dinner, it is estimated that there are only two Shan and Xiao Jinlan.

Everyone said goodbye one after another, and Lin Xi didn't stay any longer, and went back under the pretext of not worrying about Zhao Yuanrong.

However, as soon as he went out, he saw Yuan Yuan waiting anxiously at the door of Chongjin Hall, and when he saw Lin Xi, he hurriedly came over and whispered a few words in his ear, and then Lin Xi hurried back.

"What's the urgency?" Shan looked at Lin Xi in a hurry in confusion.

Xiao Jinlan shook her head, "I don't know, my cousin is mysterious, it seems that someone from the Lin family has come." ”

Hearing this, Shan Shi looked at her meaningfully.

Xiao Jinlan blushed slightly and lowered her head.

Shan Shile said: "It's not small. So he took his son and daughter and walked away.

In the Chongjin Hall

Mrs. Tai sighed: "I don't know what fate this is, so I recognized Xi'er, if he is a daughter...... Alas......"

"Isn't it the best choice for Princess Rui." Mother Qi said with a smile, "Old lady, you've been chanting it many times. ”

Mrs. Tai shook her head and said no more.

But it's too simple to think about, do you think a man can't do it? Now there is no difference between men and women in Zhao Jingyi's eyes, it is just that one can directly ask for marriage, and the other can only come secretly.

Every time Lin Xi thought about it, he was sad and heartbroken.

There's another waiting for me at this time, egg noodles, hum, egg noodles.

Yuanyuan, who is mouthy, really should have taught a good lesson, he thought hatefully.
