Chapter Twenty-Three: That Mother-in-law Wants It!
Zhao Ling immediately pushed away the woman who was nestled on top of him, sat upright, and nodded with a straight face: "Understood!" β
"Now that you understand, remember to take a few more showers when you go back!" Jiang Xiaoyu coldly looked away, his chin raised slightly, and there was no superfluous expression on his face.
It's such a dry ugly girl, but at this moment she looks a little different.
"Miss Jiang, what do you mean?" Ruyan's eyes narrowed slightly, suppressed his anger, and asked with a sneer.
"Literally, if this girl doesn't understand, you might as well let the prince explain it for you!" Jiang Xiaoyutou didn't go downstairs and left, "Yanyan, what are you still doing in a daze?" Homecoming! β
The second prince looked at the young ladies and was stunned on the spot, and smiled gently: "There must be times when there are quarrels between girls, and the younger sisters of this prince often quarrel with each other, but today, you don't have to take it to heart, just do what you should do!" β
Although he was relieved, he was also embarrassed in the end, and those few people had no face to stay, so he hurriedly found an excuse to leave.
Ruyan drank wine in a depressed mood because of Jiang Xiaoyu's insult and Zhao Ling's indifference, and glanced at Zhao Ling with aggrieved eyes from time to time, seeing his absent-minded appearance, he was just more sad.
The second prince drank a few glasses of wine, and the anger that had been accumulated by Zhao Ling for Jiang Xiaoyu finally couldn't help but vent it, he and Zhao Ling grew up together since childhood, and they had a deep relationship, so they naturally didn't have too many scruples when they spoke, and pointed to the window and roared with hatred: "Zhao Ling, you have to think clearly, that mother-in-law wants it!" It's not just the Hedong lion, it's simply a dominatrix! β
"That's my woman, be careful when you speak, don't make an example, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face with you!"
"Your woman?" The second prince laughed angrily, "Do you know what you're doing?" Is it worth it to offend my aunt for her? β
"My aunt is a wise woman, and the events of that day were all personal grudges, and she will not be angry with you!" Zhao Ling approached him and smiled, "Don't you think that there is no one in the six parts?" I'll give you one, what do you think of Gangwon? β
"He? Is it possible? Did you hear something? β
"The position of the head of the household is very important, otherwise the third child would not have spent so much effort to do so many things!" Zhao Ling grinned and climbed on the shoulders of the second prince and said, "Since you and I are good at wearing a pair of pants, won't my father-in-law stand on your side?" β
The second prince's eyes narrowed slightly: "Did you get this idea from the morning?" There are several young ladies in the Jiang family, why does it have to be the least outstanding Jiang Xiaoyu? β
"If it were someone else, would the position of this Shangshu fall to the head of Jiang Yuan?" Zhao Ling smiled disdainfully, "This court, this world, but it's just a thought of His Majesty!" β
He looked at the acrobatic performance below and smiled self-deprecatingly: "What you and I have done and even the Third Prince, in the eyes of some people, may be no different from the vaudeville on the stage!" β
He drank the wine, his eyes slowly turned to Ruyan, and Ruyan smiled coquettishly: "The slave family didn't hear anything!" β
"Xiao Wang opened today, are you two here to cheer or to smash the field?" A playful voice came from the top of the staircase, and then a man in a red robe walked up slowly, shaking a folding fan in his hand, a little frivolous and profligate.
This man's facial features are very exquisite, revealing some feminine temperament, this red robe is worn on the body, but there is not much sense of disobedience, but a little more amazing, I think there is no one in this world who is more suitable for red than him, even if he stands by Zhao Ling's side, he will not be compared to him at all, one is handsome, the other is full of evil spirit, and each leads the way.
The man's eyebrows raised slightly, looking like a teacher asking for guilt, and gently tapped his palm with a fan and said: "Xiao Wang opened today, and finally a group of beauties supported the scene, but you smashed my field, what do you mean?" β
"The incident happened suddenly, it was definitely not intentional, a glass of thin wine can be regarded as making amends for the little prince!" Zhao Ling got up and poured a glass of wine, and saluted the man in front of him, "You are not a place of sound and sex, what kind of beauty do you want to support the field!" Isn't it enough to have us? β
Zhao Qian's eyebrows raised even higher, and he smiled: "A glass of wine wants to send Xiao Wang away?" β
He walked over and lifted Ruyan's chin, the corners of his mouth were hooked, revealing a hint of evil charm: "If the prince really wants to apologize to me, how about giving Ruyan girl to Xiao Wang?" β
"Shizi ......" frowned, and glanced at Zhao Ling nervously.
Zhao Ling's face remained unchanged, and he thought for a moment and said, "In order to reflect my sincerity, I should do my best to do what the little prince asks." But Miss Ruyan is just with me today, not my person, the little prince wants her, I'm afraid I'm looking for the wrong person, you better change the conditions! β
"Tsk!" Zhao Qian shook his head and talked about it, "It is difficult for a strong man, not a gentleman, such as Miss Yan, there is only you Zhao Ling in her heart, and she doesn't want to see Xiao Wang, although Xiao Wang is devoted to the girl, she can only do it!" However, although the girl is bent on the body of this son, the son has no intention of being with the girl, the girl may wish to consider Xiao Wang, who is always better than this nerd who does not understand the amorous feelings! β
"King Jin is joking again!" Ruyan was slightly blessed, covered his mouth and smiled.
"Jiang Xiaoyu......" Zhao Qian pursed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were a little playful, "I can make Xiao Wang's sister angry, she is also an interesting person, no wonder you are not afraid of rumors and want to recognize this fiancΓ©e!" β
He brought himself a glass of wine and tasted it: "Zhao Ling, don't blame Xiao Wang for not reminding you, I'm afraid it won't be easy for your fiancΓ©e to marry home!" β
"Hmph, if he listens to persuasion, this prince won't have to bother much!"
"If there is no challenge, this son will not be happy to do it!" Zhao Ling snorted, "You two just watch!" β
Ruyan's face was gloomy and his eyes drooped.
"It seems that the rumors are true, I didn't expect the prince to defend that Jiang Xiaoyu so much, and he didn't give us any face, anyway, my father is also a scholar of the Criminal Department, even if he doesn't give me face, he has to give you face, without your grandfather to come to the current Da Zhou, the world is peaceful!" Yang Manman and Yan Shuxing were in the same direction, and the two sides were world friends, so they took the same carriage back home.
"Don't you say a word, your incident today is not caused by your troubles?" Yan Shuxing closed her eyes and pressed her temples irritably with one hand.
"What's wrong with me, I'm not upset for you!" Yang Manman snorted, "Listen to my father, the King of Chu has a meaning, and he knows that he will kill a small fish halfway!" Besides, this Jiang Xiaoyu really doesn't look very good, and I don't know what kind of means were used, but he actually asked the prince to be willing to marry her, which is really unseemly! β
"Shut up!" Yan Shuxing opened her eyes and glared at Yang Manman reproachfully, "The prince is not a mediocre person, since Miss Jiang can be favored by the prince, she must have her own merits, you don't have to gossip behind your back, the dignified young lady of the Yang family, but like a country woman, she likes to chew her tongue, and she is not panicked!" Marriage and marriage, what I pay attention to is the word fate, I have no fate with the son! You have to mention this matter again in the future to annoy me! β
"Got it!" Yang Manman pursed his lips aggrievedly, "Just don't say it in the future!" β
Yan Shuxing picked up the curtain and looked at the prosperity on the street, pondered for a while and said: "The water in the capital is very deep, although Jiang Xiaoyu grew up in the capital, but for our circle, she is still an outsider, whether she can integrate in and rely on the world is not enough, it depends on her ability!" β
The peach blossoms are still blooming vigorously, and the peach blossoms seem to be surrounded by pink clouds.
Jiang Xiaoyu took his eyes off those fiery petals, sighed, and said helplessly: "Yanyan, when do you want to see me?" β
Since she came out of the Drunken Immortal Tower, Yan Yan has been staring at her with adoring eyes, which makes her a little creepy.
"Miss, you're amazing!"
"What's so powerful, I'm still too immature after all, I can't control my temper for a while, and what good is it for me to be quick for a while? Although I swear not to let myself be wronged again, I still have to be restrained, and I don't have the capital to be arrogant in the world! Jiang Xiaoyu said lightly as he walked, but when he was about to reach the gate of the courtyard, he paused, and his face was slightly surprised.
"Why is she here? There's no trouble coming, right? Yan Yan was very heroic in front of Jiang Xiaoyu, and looked at Jiang Qiran who was waiting at the gate of the courtyard vigilantly.
"What if you're just looking for trouble? This is my territory, can I really be bullied? Jiang Xiaoyu patted Yanyan's shoulder, "You relax, don't be nervous!" β
Jiang Qiran looked at the figure of the master and servant approaching, hid the resentment in his eyes, replaced it with a friendly and apologetic smile, and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, you are back!" β
"Hmmm! Something? If you have something to go in and say it, why wait outside the yard? β
"No, I want to wait for Sister Xiaoyu to come back and enter the room, so as not to have any misunderstanding!" Jiang Qiran smiled lightly, and blessed Jiang Xiaoyu again, "Qiran came this time to apologize to Sister Xiaoyu, last time I listened to Jiang Huiran's rhetorical instigation, and almost made Sister Xiaoyu suffer an injustice, my grandfather has also taught me a lot in the past two days, and I have been thinking about my own mistakes in the house, and I really don't want to go, so I have to get my sister's forgiveness!" β
"It's all in the past, why bother to take it to heart anymore, what kind of overnight feud is there between sisters!" Jiang Xiaoyu smiled faintly, "It's the last time I made Hou Ye lose face in front of so many relatives, and I can't let go of it in my heart, thinking about finding a time to make amends to Hou Ye!" β
"Actually, to tell the truth, Sister Xiaoyu has indeed been wronged over the years, but as a younger sister, I have been turning a blind eye all these years, and I can't say anything...... Jiang Qiran lowered his eyes and took a breath and said, "Now that Sister Xiaoyu and the prince have a marriage contract, they will be a master in the future, which is really gratifying, but even if Sister Xiaoyu marries into the Chu Wangfu in the future, it is essential to associate with the noble lady in Beijing, but you rarely showed up in front of everyone before, so few people know what your sister is like, So much so that now rumors are rife! β
She paused slightly, rolled her eyes slightly, and continued: "I organized a poetry meeting with a few familiar sisters, and tomorrow, I want to invite Xiaoyu to play together!" By the way, meet a few more friends, these connections will also be needed in the future! What does my sister think? Qiran invited you so sincerely, Xiaoyu won't refuse, right? β
Listening to this pretended intimacy tone, Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't help but shudder, so that people who don't know how to think that these two sisters have a deep sisterhood!
She smiled even brighter, and said: "It's good, it's rare that you can ignore the past and think about me, I don't have any friends in the capital, it's good to go and have a look!" It's just that I'm a rough person, and I know a few words, but it's too difficult for me to compose poetry! β
"It's not that everyone can write poetry, the most important thing is that everyone has a reason to get together and meet a few more friends!" didn't expect Jiang Xiaoyu to agree easily, which made Jiang Qiran a little surprised, and then laughed softly.
"Okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Don't always stand outside, let's go in and talk!" β
The wind rose, and the peach blossoms and trees in the yard trembled, and the falling flowers were colorful.
Jiang Qiran shook his head and said: "I came to invite my sister today, and there are still some things to prepare for tomorrow's poetry meeting, so Qiran will leave first!" β
"You can go in a hurry, I won't send it!" Jiang Xiaoyu smiled faintly.
Jiang Qiran left, Yan Yan followed behind Jiang Xiaoyu and frowned and said, "How can she be so kind, miss, will there be fraud?" β
"It's inevitable that there will be fraud, but I'm not afraid, just go and see it! I'm afraid that after tomorrow, she won't be in the mood to do any more poetry meetings! β
