Old Patriarch Xiao smiled and nodded kindly, his eyes were bright as if he was not an old man who was nearly a hundred years old, with curiosity and interest, he looked at Chu Junlan generously.

"Good, good, Zhong Lingyu, who looks good, is a good boy."

Is "Zhong Lingyuxiu" used to describe people?

Chu Junlan lowered his eyes and smiled and saluted, not entangled in this question.

Regardless of whether the idiom used by Old Patriarch Xiao was right or wrong, no one present dared to say that it was half bad, and everyone only received one message clearly at this time: Old Patriarch Xiao not only recognized Xiao Xu's identity, but also attached great importance to Xiao Xu's unmarried wife.

Although this Chu Junlan has a lower background, he can get the attention of the patriarch of the royal family, and he is a well-known "little medical fairy", and it is very likely that he is the descendant of the medical immortal, and his future is limitless!

Old Patriarch Xiao stroked his beard, smiled and pulled Xiao Xu to the gazebo on the side: "Let's go, let's go and sit over there." ”

"Yes." Xiao Xu nodded.

And they all followed.

Xiao Rulan was the closest to Old Patriarch Xiao, and said with a smile on her face: "Your old man is getting more and more mentally tough, and this figure is not worse than these young men in our family." ”

"yes, yes." Su Sigongzi said with a smile, "The kid was compared." ”

Old Patriarch Xiao only looked at them and smiled, without saying much, pulled Xiao Xu to the pavilion, let Xiao Xu sit beside him, and called Chu Junlan to sit on his other side.

There are four stone piers next to the stone table in the pavilion, and there is still one place left, and the patriarch of Xiao Lao gave today's host, the prince of Pingkang.

The attendants neatly served refreshments and stood around the gazebo. The guards consciously surrounded the pavilion, forming a majestic wall of people.

The clan relatives led by Xiao Rulan and Su Sigongzi were all blocked out.

Everyone didn't dare to bumper into it, lest they offend the elders instead of stammering, which would not be beautiful.

But Xiao Rulan's face was already flushed with anger and embarrassment.

She was originally self-possessing and beautiful, and she was top-notch among the ladies present today, and she was newly married, and she was very satisfied with her newlywed husband.

But today, all her pride was shattered by Chu Junlan!

She was beautiful and dressed like a delicate red rose, but when she saw Chu Junlan, she was compared, and she felt that she was vulgar.

It's just that his appearance can't be compared, even his husband can't be compared, Su Feiyang is not even as good as a fool, no fool is tall, handsome, and even inferior to others in civil and military affairs.

Fortunately, Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu have always been taken care of by Old Patriarch Xiao, but she didn't pay attention to her several times, and was even hung out of the pavilion in public!

Xiao Rulan really felt disgraced, she felt that the women who gathered together to talk were secretly mocking her.

"Lan'er, let's go and sit on the side." Su Sigongzi proposed softly.

Xiao Rulan had a dark face and walked away without saying a word.

Su Sigongzi was treated so coldly, and he was looked at by the rest of the clan relatives and Xungui's children, and suddenly felt that his face was lost, and he forced his temper to keep smiling, and he also followed.

Everyone spread out and sat down, talking in low voices.

Everyone was curious about what Patriarch Xiao was talking about with Xiao Xu and Chu Junlan.

But Chu Junlan here is different from what they imagined.

"Sister Lan'er's family is three? Are there any other siblings in the family? Are the elders alive? How are the elderly in good health? ”

Old Patriarch Xiao asked such innocuous questions, and when Chu Junlan replied one by one, he went to ask Xiao Xu if his daily life was good.

After all, he didn't talk about any important topics, which made people confused about his intentions for a while.

The prince of Pingkang didn't understand what the old patriarch Xiao was going to do, and he was like sitting on pins and needles for a while, and he didn't dare to move.

Fortunately, the old patriarch Xiao didn't stay long, but after two tea courses, he said with a smile: "I'm old, I'm useless, I don't have the spirit of you young people, and it's a good thing that the juniors in the family can think of getting together often, you have a heart." He smiled and looked at the prince of Pingkang.

Wang Shizi of Pingkang was simply flattered: "Don't dare, don't dare, this is what the younger generation should do!" ”

The patriarch of the royal family left with people, and everyone naturally sent them off again.

Today's feast suddenly became tasteless.

Everyone was speculating about what Old Patriarch Xiao had chatted with Prince Gongding and Chu Junlan, and some of them were familiar with Prince Pingkang, and they took the initiative to ask him.

Where did the prince of Pingkang dare to reveal? Just diverted from the topic.

Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu glanced at each other and dispersed. The ladies naturally gathered around Chu Junlan.

"Miss Chu San is known as a little medicine fairy, and if she really deserves her reputation, it seems that the patriarch of the royal family also attaches great importance to you." Sun Ming'er said with a smile.

When the ladies got the opportunity, they praised them one after another and showed goodwill with Chu Junlan.

Xiao Xu was in the same situation here, the clan relatives no longer looked at him with the eyes of a fool, although he acted like a ten-year-old child, everyone was extremely patient when they spoke to him.

There is no way, people who have been recognized by the patriarchs, what qualifications do they have to reject?

Xiao Rulan sulked from afar, and finally couldn't hold back her anger, got up and left.

Su Sigongzi looked at her and made a small temperament, and left first without greeting her, so he had to go and say goodbye to the prince of Pingkang.

On the carriage on the way back, Chu Junlan hugged the little girl, touched its slippery fur all at once, and said, "...... So that's the case, it's strange that Xiao Rulan can be arrogant like that, and she couldn't imagine that Su Sigongzi would actually join her family. ”

"Yes." Xiao Xu nodded.

Chu Junlan put this matter behind him in a blink of an eye, and turned to get down to business: "I thought about it yesterday, the whereabouts of the blood jade berries are best to start with the merchants, where do those merchants from the west do business on weekdays, find someone to ask for a good life." ”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Xiao Xu.

"I'm afraid that the people below are looking for the wrong thing, so I specially drew this."

Xiao Xu took it and unfolded it, and drew an elegant plant with a fine shape on the narrow leaves, and the fruit below was very round.

Xiao Xu put it away before saying, "Actually, the drawings are already there." ”

"Got it?"

"My master has already drawn one."

"Your master?" Chu Junlan blinked his long eyelashes.

Xiao Xu bowed his head: "Yes, Master is erudite and talented, and has taught me a lot, whether it is the way of establishing a person or the way of officialdom, he is well-read, I haven't seen anything that Master can't, that day you talked about this blood jade berry, I saw Master and asked." He drew a picture, which is the same as the plant you draw, although it is different from the one you draw. ”

Chu Junlan nodded and said seriously: "I believe that your master is really powerful, it is rare to see you say so many words in one breath to praise others, to ask who else can have this honor." ”

Xiao Xu moved his lips a little shyly, but he still didn't say a word "you" in the end.
