After the banquet ended, Xiao Yao couldn't help but ask Tong Mingyu when she got into the carriage: "Mother, I think the second sister-in-law you chose should be that Miss Liu, right?" ”

"Why do you think it's her?" Tong Mingyu showed a bright smile, this kid has a really unique vision, he can take a fancy to Miss Liu from so many people, it seems that he can't underestimate her in the future.

"She has a good temperament, calm and atmospheric, and I think she is very suitable to be the wife of the long house."

"This matter will have to be discussed with your grandfather and grandmother before deciding, I and Mrs. Liu are also more compatible, and the young lady's brother and your second brother also have a good relationship, there should be no problem with this family matter."

"Good girl, everyone will be staring, let's start first, my mother must take action quickly, there will be no such shop in this village."

"Look at you, marrying a daughter-in-law is a big deal, and your second brother is the eldest son of the long house, so there are many things to consider, so you don't want to participate."

"That's not good, I made a bet with Ruonan, how things are going here is directly related to my honor and disgrace, don't pay attention to it!"

"You...... Do you dare to make a bet with the county lord and tell me what you bet on? ”

"If I lose, I will accompany Ruonan to play ten games of chess, and if she loses, I will embroider ten purses."

"...... you" Tong Mingyu looked at her smiling daughter and didn't know how to teach her a lesson, and then thought about whether her daughter and the county lord's family were too close, the princess of Qi County would think like that, what about others!

"What do you think of King Jing's Mansion and King Jing's family?" Tong Mingyu looked into her daughter's eyes and asked word by word, she believed that with her understanding of her daughter, if she had any careful thoughts, she would definitely be able to see the clues.

"Hmmm! The princess is very good, I can see that she really likes me and Ruyi, the county lord is good, at the beginning, my daughter was really afraid that she would not get along with her, and after a long time of contact, I found that she was very kind, simple, and people looked cold, but her heart was very kind. ”

"What about the prince and the prince!"

"The prince is very good, sometimes he takes the initiative to say hello when he sees me and Ruyi, the prince? Uncooked. Xiao Yao decisively skipped the person she hated.

Looking at her daughter's clear and bright eyes, as well as her undodging eyes, Tong Mingyu believed that she was saying what she was saying. Besides, the daughter and the son are indeed not familiar with each other, and with the cold temperament of the son, it may not be easy to get along with him.

The Xiao family is a very enlightened family, and the old marquis Xiao and his wife only need their son and daughter-in-law to be satisfied, and they rarely put forward different opinions. The Qin family didn't think about the meaning of stuffing the maiden girl to the grandson as a daughter-in-law. After all, with the current status of the Xiao family, it is impossible to marry with the merchant again, not to mention that there is a lesson from the past, she is saying that she will no longer go beyond her family to make decisions for her grandson.

Next, the Xiao family entered another round of busyness, discussing who to invite to be the matchmaker and determining the location of the new house......

On this day, the gatehouse of King Jing's Mansion sent a letter to Jinhuayuan, and it happened that King Jing's father and son were also there, and the family of four was very curious about who this letter would be addressed to.

"It was sent by the maid next to Miss Xiao, and it was said to be for the county lord." The subordinates hurried back.

Yun Ruonan did not shy away from it, let alone opened the envelope quickly without delay, and the four of them gathered around together, only to find that there was not a word on a piece of rice paper, but only ten Qianqian jade fingers and a beautiful purse were drawn.

"What is this?" King Jing admires Xiao Yao, who is always renovated and has endless ideas, if this little girl is a boy, she should be able to get the top prize!

"This is ......" Yin Qianhua's mother and daughter looked at each other wordlessly, neither of them understood the meaning of the painting.

"Ruonan lost the bet." Yun Yichen, who has some knowledge of Xiao Yao's painting style, said in one sentence, this little girl, can't you say a word clearly? Who do you want to test every day by making some strange things! How could I understand what she meant at a glance? Could it be...... Have a ...... heart Yun Yichen was frightened by himself, and hurriedly snuffed out that inexplicable thought.

"Ah Chen knows Miss Xiao very well!" King Jing looked at his son and teased.

"Brother, how did you know about my bet with Ping'an." Yun Ruonan asked in surprise.

"You and your mother talked so loudly that day, I think it's hard to pretend you can't hear." Yun Yichen will resolutely not admit that he deliberately eavesdropped.

"Ten purses, when will I embroider them! When will I be able to win again? Yun Ruonan is very speechless about his repeated defeats, the same age, the same birthday, why is the gap in vision so big!

"Ah Chen, did Miss He offend you two days ago?" King Jing suddenly remembered that Lord He had asked him, and asked curiously.

"She bumped into her cousin in the temple, and I just said a few words to her for the sake of Lord He." Yun Yichen dusted his sleeves as if unintentionally, he wouldn't tell anyone that he had sent guards to keep an eye on her, and he only brought his cousin over after learning that she went to Shangxiang, and that opportunity to make a fool of herself in front of everyone was specially prepared for her.

"Brother, have you helped me and Ping'an teach her a lesson, see if she dares to bully Ping'an next time." Yun Ruonan grabbed Yun Yichen's sleeve and said while pulling.

King Jing automatically closed his mouth after his daughter spoke, he is a stupid son! Where is this for his cousin's grievances, he is simply avenging the little girl of the Xiao family.

"Ahem, I forgot about you a long time ago, if she hadn't offended her cousin that day, I wouldn't have spoken." Yun Yichen would rather die than admit it, and at the same time he wanted to cover up and glance at King Jing, if his eyes were more empty, he would be more empty.

"The next time Ruonan sees Ping'an, tell her that your brother has taken revenge on behalf of the two of you." King Jing plans to take the opportunity to teach his son that if he does a good deed, he will have to leave his name at some point, and the bigger the movement, the better it will be for his side.

"I said it has nothing to do with my sister, don't let my sister go out and talk nonsense." Yun Yichen bounced up from the chair as if he had been pricked by a needle, and stopped in a bit of a panic. As long as the little girl is not angry, she never expected her to thank herself.

"I thank my brother for my own peace." Yun Ruonan happily thanked her.

King Jing looked at a simple child who had passed the race, and he was worried. Obviously, the son who has just fallen in love only dares to silently pay attention to the little girl behind his back; The daughter also regards her ill-intentioned and unaware brother as a good person, and she can't believe that there will be such stupid two people in the famous Jingwang Mansion.

"Embroider your purse! Don't forget to save one for your brother when the time comes. Yun Yichen diverted the topic.

"I'm losing a bet to Ping An, and my brother's has to be lined up in the back." I don't know when I can embroider these ten!

"Then what kind of punishment should I accept if Ping An loses!" King Jing asked curiously.

"Play ten games with me, and if you fall asleep in the middle of the game, wake up and continue playing." Yun Ruonan roughly talked about the gambling contract between the two people.

"Ping'an, this kid is so funny, it's the first time I've seen someone who is so afraid of playing chess! I'd love to try it next time we meet. King Jing said happily.

The Qin family and Tong Mingyu in the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion are educating Xiao Yao, this child is simply lawless, he actually dares to make a bet with the county lord, even if he makes a bet, he dares to really come to the door to ask for a bet, and the two generations of hostesses of the Xiao family don't know how to convict her.

"Peace! Peace, you're a clever kid on weekdays! How can you be confused when you encounter a big event! Being able to befriend the county lord is something that others can't ask for. You don't say that everything is in accordance with the county lord's wishes, and you even came to the door to ask for a gambling contract, do you lack purse? Or did your grandmother and your mother treat you badly? The Qin family asked questions like a cannonball, and Xiao Yao was not allowed to argue, and he couldn't vent all the dissatisfaction accumulated in his heart.

Tong Mingyu is not as angry as her mother-in-law, she just thinks that her daughter is playing a little too much, no matter if she wins or loses, she just said it, how can she really find the county owner's purse! Looking at her daughter Tong Mingyu who was bowing her head and fiddling with the hem of her clothes, she was very distressed, but her mother-in-law's anger had not yet been vented, and she couldn't stop at all, so she could only accompany her daughter to endure and listen.

"What's wrong with you, I can hear you reprimanding Ping An in the courtyard, why haven't I seen you teach Xiaosi like this! If you think our ancestors are in the way, you will say that there is no bullying like you. Old Marquis Xiao panted and walked quickly to Xiao Yao, took her in his arms and looked at her carefully, seeing that his granddaughter was fine, he hugged her like a child who had been greatly wronged and patted her back gently.

"You ask her what good things she did?" Qin was extremely angry, and pointed at Xiao Yao and said.

"Don't be afraid, tell your grandfather what happened?" Old Marquis Xiao simply squatted down, he only had a little granddaughter in his eyes, if it was usually he would have gone over to comfort his angry old wife, he didn't want to do that today. Even if Ping An is at fault again, she is just a child, as a grandmother, just preach a few words, and everyone in the Manchu Mansion who is shouting knows it, is it good to look good on the face of an elder?

"I made a bet with the county lord, and she lost, and I asked the maid to send a letter to tell her the news, and by the way, I mentioned the bet, so ...... It's all to blame for Ping'an's poor consideration, grandfather, grandmother, don't be angry, I can write another letter and tell the county lord that it was just a joke, and I don't want to bet on it. ”

Xiao Yao didn't think it was such a big deal, it was normal for friends to play around, and the county lord would not be unhappy because of such a trivial matter, I really don't know why my grandmother made such a fuss.

"Yes, you hurry up and write a letter to the county lord, apologize, send some gifts, and say that you will never do this again, please don't be angry with you." Speaking of this, the Qin family looked as a matter of course.

At this time, the talents who were left behind by Old Marquis Xiao walked into Ninghetang one after another, and when they heard Qin's words, both young and old frowned, Ping An is not a maid, why should he be inferior to others, even if the other party is the county lord, he can't belittle himself without a bottom line, hold outsiders!

"Hehe, the Xiao family has not fallen to that point, I will never allow my children to grovel and flatter, if anyone does this, they are not my Xiao Hu's descendants, although Ping An is a little inappropriate in handling this matter, let's just be a joke between the two children, why be serious!" Old Marquis Xiao held back his anger and said slowly.
