CHAPTER XXIII
Originally, I didn't have much hope, he had a lot of things to do recently, and even if he came, he couldn't enter the inner house, but it happened that Xiao Shizi came as a guest today and invited him to accompany him, under the pretext of saying that he could change his clothes in order to look aimlessly in the yard.
As soon as I walked out of the door of the inner hall, I saw her from afar.
Thinking that this was probably fate, Su Jingchen couldn't help but want to laugh.
So Ning Xiang quietly bypassed him while he was immersed in his own world with a smirk on his face.
Then the girl began to run.
Last time I robbed him of tea, who knows if he will hold a grudge!
Su Jingchen only felt that a fragrant breeze passed by him, and the cute little girl disappeared. Seeing that Ning Xiang didn't run far for half a day with her little short legs, he chuckled. Lifting his breath, he applied light gong to chase after him.
Without waiting for Ning Xiang to react, he grabbed her waist, locked the person in his arms, and arrived at the courtyard of the house doctor in a few jumps.
Ning Xiang was originally running very attentively, but she was suddenly hugged by someone, and she subconsciously wanted to struggle, but found that Su Jingchen's arm trapped herself. After a few failures, she gave up with a red face.
Su Jingchen knew the movements of the little man in his arms, and smiled without saying a word.
When she landed, she didn't let her down, holding one hand and protecting the other, and walked towards the thatched house of the house doctor like a milk doll.
The house doctor was resting after eating, tossing and turning, and couldn't sleep, just wanted to drink the tea made by Ning Xiang.
When I was half-asleep with my eyes squinted, I heard the crisp sentence "Grandpa save me".
His eyes widened sharply, and he got up and strode out the door.
The appearance of his obedient granddaughter sitting in Su Jingchen's arms with a red face and pouting instantly stimulated him.
Su Jingchen didn't react, he thought that the house doctor was just Ning Xiang's master, but he didn't think that the house doctor who was alone had already treated Ning Xiang as his own granddaughter.
What was this scene in his eyes? It's the disciple who robbed his own little girl!
"Good thief!" The house doctor burst into tears, stepped forward, and slapped Su Jingchen's forehead with a slap.
"Pain, pain, pain!" Su Jingchen hugged Ning Xiang and refused to let go, so naturally he couldn't dodge this sudden blow. After being slapped firmly, he had to carefully put Ning Xiang down, and jumped to his feet in pain on the side, "Old man, you're not afraid of breaking me." ”
"If I don't beat you, you're also bad, how old is my granddaughter? Beast! The house doctor grabbed the little granddaughter who rushed towards him, and reprimanded Su Jingchen with indignation.
Su Jingchen was aggrieved for a while, and defended himself weakly: "I... I didn't..."
The house doctor snorted coldly, took Ning Xiang's hand, turned his head and walked into the house, and taught Ning Xiang as he walked: "This kind of disciple, you have to stay away from him in the future, and when you go back, grandpa will personally choose a family business for you, and he will definitely not let you wade into troubled waters." ”
"Why is my house a muddy water?" Su Jingchen rubbed his forehead, playing Lai Pi and followed closely behind the grandfather and grandson, without any intention of leaving.
"You can't tell that it's Xiao Wangfu's little prince who came with you today? He is the only one who can let you, a monkey, honestly come to visit relatives. ”
As the house doctor spoke, he didn't notice that when Ning Xiang heard the words "Xiao Wangfu", he was already covered with frost.
In order to cover up the anger around her, Ning Xiang obediently walked to the other side and made tea for the two.
The house doctor and Su Jingchen are gagging, and they have endless words.
On the other side, Jiang Yueyue also entered the main hall, and the men and women were seven years old, not to mention the outsiders. Jiang Zhizhou had a different kind of thought, and placed the two seats together, only separated by a screen in the middle.
It is said to be a screen, but the thin gauze used is no different from blocking it and not blocking it.
So as soon as Jiang Yueyue entered the table, she saw a suave young man sitting on the male seat opposite. is more masculine than her cousin Su Jingchen, and has the courage to kill decisively. I was fascinated by it at a glance, and I didn't even taste the dishes that the maid on the side gave her that she didn't like to eat on weekdays.
However, she also found out smartly that the little prince sat on the main seat, that is, his status was higher than his father. He must be a young and promising person! If not, it is the young son of a prominent noble family.
Jiang Yueyue was right, and before her saliva could flow onto the plate, Mrs. Jiang next to her whispered in her ear: "This is the little prince of Xiao Wangfu, you call him Brother Xiao Qian." ”
Madame Jiang's feelings for Xiao Qian are complicated. Xiao Gan's father, Xiao Wangye, is the only king with a different surname today, and his ancestors fought side by side with the founding emperor, charging into battle for Taizu, shedding blood, and his ancestors have been celebrities in front of the emperor for generations. Mrs. Jiang was born in the Earl's Mansion of Qingyang and has always been attached to King Xiao, who originally wanted to give her to King Xiao as a concubine, but King Xiao refused and married her to Jiang Zhizhou. Although she has always been the lady in the main room, Mrs. Jiang has always been unhappy.
She likes King Xiao, and when she was a child, she always chased after him and shouted "Brother Xiao Zan". I didn't expect it to end up like this. But she can't hate it, Xiao Zan is a person with a big mind, such an excellent character, how could she hate him. If he wants to use himself to entrap the high-ranking officials in Zhuozhou, then she will do what he wants.
It can be seen that she has done a good job over the years. Xiao Zan even regarded her as a righteous sister to consolidate her position in the Zhizhou Mansion. Coupled with her skill, Jiang Zhizhou is almost obedient to her.
Mrs. Jiang felt that she couldn't marry King Xiao, which was a regret, and she wanted Jiang Yueyue to fill this regret. His own daughter and his son will definitely be harmonious.
Jiang Yueyue didn't know that her mother had many thoughts like this, even if she didn't know, she also identified Xiao Qian at this moment.
She wants to marry this man, she must marry this person!
So after the meal, when Madame Jiang asked her to hurry up to learn royal etiquette, she didn't feel rejection, but was even more excited.
She wants to be the only girl worthy of Xiao Qian!
As soon as the banquet dispersed, Xiao Qian took Su Jingchen away, and didn't ask him why he didn't come back for so long. In his opinion, as long as his subordinates do not delay things, they should have absolute freedom.
When the little servant went to the house doctor to send a message to Su Jingchen, Ning Xiang also realized that the banquet was dispersed, so she retired together and returned to Jiang Yueyue's side.
When she saw the frenzy in Jiang Yueyue's eyes, the corners of her mouth hooked, the protagonists are all here, can she, a reborn person, also look forward to a little more?
"Ning Xiang, you have to learn from your grandmother in the afternoon class, and you can't lose my face in the future." Jiang Yueyue solemnly explained.
She already regarded herself as the future princess in her heart, and this frame shook in advance, which was ridiculous in Ning Xiang's eyes.
But the more you expect, the more disappointment you will have, right?
When she climbed to the top step by step, and was about to catch everything she wanted, let her fall hard.
Ning Xiang's hand couldn't help but cover her lower abdomen. Resentment grew and spread in her heart, and she felt that she was the devil who asked for her life, but this feeling was really comfortable.
