Chapter 167: Guarding Carefully
Jiang Xiaotuan was slightly stunned, but after thinking about it a little, he understood, I was afraid that this second gift was just a cover-up, but the relationship between the two people was so hard to give gifts?
"Xiaotuan, don't thank you little prince, this kid is stupid with joy." Jiang Shixian held his head high and said with some pride.
The careful Lu Qiuyan also found that Ling Mubai's words seemed to be said casually, but every sentence poked at Zhen Li and Liu Ru's hearts, this man is ruthless enough, but indecisive people are indeed not worthy of Xiaotuan's sister.
"Thank you, little prince!" Jiang Xiaotuan said respectfully.
Ling Mubai nodded lightly, not intimate or affectionate, and gave Jiang Xiaotuan enough face, which was impeccable.
As expected, Zhen Li and Liu Ru looked at all this in amazement, Haikou who had just boasted about it was slapped in the face for a while, and Zhen Li, who was at a loss, was thick-skinned, otherwise he would have to jump into the river.
Originally, when Zhen Li said those arrogant words, Liu Ru not only didn't stop her, but she was quite happy in her heart, but at this moment she was annoyed by Zhen Li, thinking that she had pushed herself to the cusp of the storm and was laughed at, and she was waiting for Zhen Li with anger and hatred.
Liu Ru has always been pretentious in the young lady, relying on her family's money and her good looks, but she doesn't take everyone seriously, today the two sisters lifted a stone to shoot themselves in the foot, and no one present will hide it from her.
The banquet was about to start, Yin Mei'er was still complaining that she was sick and didn't show up, Jiang Shixian hurriedly called the maid to call someone over.
Ling Mubai sneered on his lips, and said lightly: "Since the second lady is uncomfortable, then there is no need to come over, anyway, today I am here to catch the wind for Mrs. Jiang and Miss Jiang, as for others, it is okay not to see them." ”
"This ......" Jiang Shixian's smile froze, he was also an old fox, where could he not hear Ling Mubai's protection of Jiang Xiaotuan's mother and daughter, "It's okay, it's okay, I've been resting for a while just now, it's okay, the little prince has a noble status, and if he can come to the cold house, Mrs. naturally wants to do her best to be a landlord." ”
"Landlord friendship?" Ling Mubai asked in a cold voice, "Aren't you already exhausted?" Besides, isn't Mrs. Jiang here? ”
Jiang Xiaotuan looked at the cold man, and there was an irrepressible warmth in his heart.
Jiang Shixian's smile froze, and he didn't dare to say anything more, even Zhen Li, who had always been rampant, was not satisfied with the Li family being called Mrs. Jiang at this time, and he didn't dare to say more, after all, the person who said this was someone she couldn't afford to mess with in her life.
"Lord Jiang, when will the banquet start, this king has already missed the delicious egg yolk crisp, is it possible that you won't even give you a sip of wine and food?"
"How dare you, the little prince laughed." Jiang Shixian was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, obviously this little prince was young, but it made people feel pressured when they saw it, so the aura had nothing to do with age.
"Egg yolk crisp, small ball, go and bring the egg yolk crisp."
Jiang Xiaotuan shrugged, "Dad, this daughter really can't do it, the egg yolk crisp has already been eaten." ”
"This ......" Jiang Shixian glared at her, why didn't the good things be left to the distinguished guests, but he couldn't say this, and if he said it, he would have to be scolded to death.
"Huh?" Ling Mubai didn't seem to want to end the topic like this, so he had to let Jiang Shixian give an answer.
Mrs. Zhao originally wanted to break the siege with good intentions, but was stopped by Mrs. Lu and signaled her not to speak.
"It's better like this, wait until tomorrow to let the little girl make some egg yolk crisp and send it to the prince's mansion in person, what do you think?"
"Hmm!" Ling Mubai nodded with satisfaction, "Then there is Miss Lao Jiang, my grandmother likes sweets the most, and she must like it very much." ”
Jiang Shixian said flatteringly: "How come, you can take a fancy to the dim sum she makes, that is her blessing." ”
Mrs. Zhao suddenly realized, she really wanted to give herself a slap in the face, just now she was still thinking about pleasing Ling Xiaowangye, saying that the egg yolk crisp has been bought by herself, and she can send it to the mansion in the future, and she was pulled by her cousin, otherwise she would be in trouble.
Is Ling Xiaowang the one who misses that bite of dim sew?
He's missing people.
So he said that he was a drunkard, and he didn't drink at all.
Seeing her frightened expression, Mrs. Lu smiled and patted her hand and told her that it was okay.
After all, this is Yin Meier's house, Jiang Shixian is just a nominal master, Yin Meier is taking care of it from top to bottom, and people naturally know who is the master, the person sent by Jiang Shixian to inform Yin Meier was stopped, but Yin Meier still knew.
It's just that what can I do, where did Ling Mubai put his words, what people want to see is Mrs. Jiang of the Li family, and it has nothing to do with her Yin Mei'er, if she goes now, it will be boring for herself.
Ling Mubai came, Yin Mei'er was happy, but because of his attitude, she was a little scared, what about that girl, she was already said to be the second lady, if she really became the woman of Ling Xiaowangye, then did she still have status in this family?
At this moment, Yin Meier had the idea of retreating, but the person had already come, and there was no way to retreat at all.
"Little prince, what do you think we have a banquet now?" Jiang Shixian asked.
Ling Mubai smiled faintly, "What did Master Jiang say, you are the master, this king is a guest, how can there be a guest in charge, listen to it." ”
"Okay, come on, set up a feast."
This meal has its own thoughts, Liu Ru has been looking at Ling Mubai, but he hasn't even responded, Zhen Li was also slapped in the face because he just spoke, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense at this time.
The guests dispersed, Jiang Xiaotuan sent away the last Lu Qiuyan sister and brother, and when he thought of Lu Qiuyan's playful eyes, Jiang Xiaotuan felt hot all over.
Xiaoyue girl has never had time to talk to Jiang Xiaotuan, she has never seen such a beautiful eldest sister, who can maneuver around all kinds of people without making mistakes, she doesn't even dare to say a word in front of those people, for fear of making trouble if she says something wrong.
"Eldest sister, the little prince looks really handsome, more beautiful than his daughter's parents, I have never seen such a good-looking person when I am so old, I think he is the best-looking man in the world." Jiang Xiaoyue flashed starry eyes and said intoxicatedly.
Jiang Xiaotuan couldn't help but smile and knocked her on the head, "How old are you, how many people have you seen, you must know that there is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the world, he is good-looking, but the world is so big, there should be someone who is better than him." ”
"Besides, what should a man do so well."
"What does the man want?" Jiang Xiaoyue looked at Jiang Xiaotuan and asked seriously.
Jiang Xiaotuan didn't know why he had a feeling that the woman was not left, "You little girl, how old are you to want to know how to look at men?"
Jiang Xiaoyue covered her head that was hurt by Jiang Xiaotuan, and grinned, "Sister, what are you talking about, I just asked, you said that men don't have to be good-looking, so what should I do?" ”
"There are a lot of wants, and when you want to get married, I will help you choose well."
Jiang Xiaoyue pouted, "Eldest sister, you haven't decided to marry, what am I anxious about." ”
Jiang Shixian saw that the sisters were talking and laughing, so he chased after them in stride, and sent the two maids back first, leaving only the two daughters, "Xiaotuan, you didn't perform well enough today." ”
"Dad, where did you start with that?" Jiang Xiaotuan didn't forget what he said to himself before, "The death order you gave me, be sure to invite the little prince, although I didn't invite it, but I also came!" ”
When it comes to the little prince, Jiang Shixian's attitude is a little better, not like the tone of reprimand just now, "Dad is for your good, the little prince is very face-giving to you, you girl, you patronize talking to Miss Lu during the banquet, and I don't know how rude it is to toast the little prince, it looks childish." ”
Jiang Xiaotuan saw this father's mind thoroughly, and his so-called atmosphere was so much that he couldn't wait to throw himself into Ling Mubai's arms in front of the big guy.
"Dad, didn't you always greet the little prince?"
Jiang Shixian's face straightened, "I'...... Can that be the same? Why don't you understand my heart? Now that he's here, it means that there is a door, you have to be careful, don't wait until the little prince is not interested in you, and then you won't have a chance to post it. ”
"Mother, wait, are you going to see Erniang?" Jiang Xiaotuan didn't bother to pay attention to Jiang Shixian, and stopped the Li family who was walking in front.
The direction that the Li family is facing is obviously not Yin Mei'er's residence, but she is smart, Jiang Xiaotuan and his party understood, "Yes, didn't I think about sending the first year of junior high school back first, and then going to see your second mother?" She has an upset stomach and doesn't know what is wrong? I don't have a heart to endure. ”
Jiang Shixian frowned slightly, "That's not necessary, right?" ”
Jiang Xiaotuan smiled brightly, "Yes, yes, Dad, Erniang takes good care of us, she is uncomfortable at this time, we have to go and see, don't worry, we will sit and leave, we will not disturb her." ”
"You just said that I wasn't generous enough, and now Erniang is sick, and as a daughter, I didn't go to see it, if this spreads, it won't be good for my reputation, and people still think that I don't know that respecting my elders is not filial enough, Dad, what do you say?"
Jiang Shixian heard these words and felt that there was nothing more important than his daughter's reputation now, "Okay, then you go and go back quickly, don't forget that you have to go to Ling Xiaowang tomorrow." ”
Jiang Xiaotuan's eyes rolled, "Okay." ”
Jiang Shixian took the mother and daughter to Yin Meier's courtyard, the Li family is not a person to compare, but after seeing it, I also feel that this place is magnificent, and my cramped courtyard is not comparable at all, but this is normal, after all, it is someone's territory.
Jiang Xiaotuan and his party entered the house, Yin Mei'er was lying lazily on the beauty couch, and when she saw a few people coming, she hurriedly showed a weak and happy smile.
Jiang Xiaotuan sat down with a calm expression, "Erniang, are you okay?" ”
Yin Mei'er hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm happy to see you, the month is old, the weather is hot, there are many noisy people outside, it's a little uncomfortable after a long time, and it's okay to lie down." ”
Jiang Xiaotuan paused, and listened to Li Shi's greetings with her with a smile on her face, but she felt that Yin Mei'er's attitude had changed too quickly.
