Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Son of the World Makes Reparations
"It's back. Have you eaten? Seeing that Xiao Ruyu was dressed in black, with her hair pulled high, and a small cloth bag behind her, Xiao Zhongjing stepped forward to greet him with a smile.
"Hmph." Xiao Ruyu glared at her father and said angrily: "What to eat, I'm about to be angry, this annoying Han Wensong, what does this girl think owes him?" What kind of thing, isn't it just a world? What is there to drag, there are so many sons in the capital, just throw a brick out, and you can hit eight sons in ten. ”
Xiao Zhongjing's smile didn't have time to retract, and he immediately widened his eyes, "Shut up, what nonsense, the son of the world is also something you can arrange." ”
"To hell with your son." Xiao Ruyu was told by his father, and he was even more angry. She was upset, and her father didn't comfort her, and scolded her, and those who didn't know thought she picked it up.
Seeing Xiao Ruyu enter the door with his front foot, Xiao Zhongjing caught up and wanted to ask what was going on, but he didn't expect a snap, General Xiao was closed, if he hadn't dodged quickly, his nose would have been knocked crooked.
I had never seen my daughter have such a big fire, Xiao Zhongjing was a little uneasy, reached out and knocked on the door, Xiao Ruyu hid in the quilt and covered her ears and pretended not to hear.
After waiting for a while, seeing that his daughter ignored him, he put his hand down, turned around and walked out, wanting to ask his son what was going on?
"General, the prince is here." Xiao Zhongjing hadn't left yet, and the old housekeeper came to report. This housekeeper's surname is Zhong, and he is the head of a merchant family that Xiao Zhongjing saved when he was in northern Xinjiang. His main family was killed by the Northern Barbarians, and he was almost killed, but fortunately he was saved by Xiao Zhongjing. Later, he took refuge in Xiao Zhongjing and helped take care of the affairs of the General's Mansion. This time, Xiao Zhongjing settled in the capital, and he came over with Mingqiu.
"Invite him to the study, and I'll be right over." Xiao Zhongjing put aside the clothes he wanted to change and hurriedly walked out.
"I've seen His Royal Highness." Xiao Zhongjing gave a salute to the prince. Shizi waved his hand: "Don't be polite, general, you have offended the eldest lady, and this time I am here to make amends." ”
"The son of the world must not be like this, Siyu's girl is not sensible, how can she make you make amends." Although I can't figure out what is going on, the prince is the king, he is the minister, it can also be said that the son of the world is the master, he is the servant, how can the master make amends to the servant's daughter.
"This time it is indeed absolutely wrong, it makes the eldest lady angry, and asks the eldest lady to come out and apologize in person." The Prince of England said very sincerely. He has always respected Xiao Zhongjing very much and was very polite to him.
As soon as Xiao Ruyu left, he regretted it, it was not about other girls, he was a little unscrupulous, seeing that people were far away, he felt that it was indeed excessive, and he wanted to ignore it first, but thinking that this Miss Xiao is not a good coax, in case she provokes her, his previous sins are really in vain.
In addition, he really wanted to invite Xiao Ruyu to go to Lingnan with him, in his opinion, lonely men and widows are the easiest to be tempted by getting along for a long time, as long as he cares more and pays more along the way, maybe he can impress her. After these days of contact, he realized that he was indeed tempted.
He was a little dazed, a little annoyed, and a little overwhelmed, he didn't know what attitude to treat Xiao Ruyu, but he didn't want to be accused by her, because she was troubled, so he was a little angry when he saw that she didn't act according to his will, and he was a little annoyed and angry, and the final result was to be angry and offend others.
"Wait a minute, I'll call that girl and ask her to apologize to you." Xiao Zhongjing didn't want the prince to apologize to his daughter, although he didn't know what was going on, but this matter might be wronged.
But this girl is very stubborn, I'm afraid that if she doesn't handle it well, she will not forgive. Xiao Zhongjing has a headache, one is his respected son, and the other is his beloved daughter, in all fairness, neither party wants to offend, and neither party can be wronged.
"Siyu is out, and the son of the world is here." Xiao Zhongjing knocked on the door a few times and said. Cai Wei and the others had already been driven away, and he didn't want the servants to watch him coax his daughter.
Xiao Ruyu had suppressed her anger at this time, she stepped forward to open the door, and looked at Xiao Zhongjing coldly, if Xiao Zhongjing dared to reprimand her again, she would run away from home immediately. Thinking of her dignified senior doctor, who doesn't give her a little smile when she sees her in modern times, no one has really thrown her face, although he Xiao Zhongjing is the father of this body, but she Xiao Ruyu is not his daughter-in-law, so there is no need to be idle with him.
"Siyu, you ......" Seeing Xiao Ruyu come out, her eyes were cold, and Xiao Zhongjing's words if she wanted her to apologize to the prince suddenly couldn't speak. He suddenly understood that this daughter was not something he could control at all, and that blood relationship was not a reason for him to discipline her.
He has received the grace of the British king, and he should be a slave of their family, but Ruyu can't be a slave with him. She should have her own choices and paths, and he can't sway her. finally recognized this daughter, he can't let his daughter be wronged because of this incident.
"If Siyu has any grievances, just tell your father, if it is indeed the son of the world, even if you find it in front of His Royal Highness, your father will seek justice for you." Xiao Zhongjing suddenly stood on her side, Xiao Ruyu was a little surprised, she knew that her general's father was loyal to the King of England and the prince of England, and it was not easy to say such a thing. She is not an unreasonable person who can understand the loyalty and morality of a subordinate. She didn't want to embarrass her father for herself, but since the prince of England came, there were some things that had to be made clear.
The British king's side should not take the loyalty of the General's Mansion for granted. They should indeed be grateful to the British Palace, but they should not lose their self and freedom because of this.
"Dad, you can think clearly, I won't say anything good when I see Shizi for a while, even if it's because of you, I won't give face." Xiao Ruyu clenched her fists and continued to say coldly. She can't give her father a good face right away, and her father will make such mistakes in the future.
"You don't have to give face to your father, if it's really the son of the world, you can just say that he is. If he bullies you, Daddy will help you beat him. Xiao Zhongjing patted his chest and promised. He wondered in his heart, what made his daughter so angry, couldn't it be that the son of the world took advantage of his daughter?
But this situation was immediately denied, he knew his daughter's ability, and the legs of the son of the world were in that situation, and the daughter was almost as cheap as others, and it was impossible to be bullied.
"That's what you said." The corners of Xiao Ruyu's mouth twitched slightly, and she snorted lightly to express disbelief. She strode to the study to see what the prince wanted to do.
At this time, Xiao Ruyu had already changed back into women's clothes, she was wearing a plain simple skirt, her hair was scattered behind her, the whole person looked a little lazy but more pretty and beautiful, the prince of England saw her, and lost his mind for a moment.
It's not that he hasn't seen a beautiful woman, but there has never been a woman who has made him so in a trance, suffering from gains and losses. The pure prince of the year was so proud, and he was never moved or distracted by a woman. It can also be said that he was too proud at that time, and no woman was worthy of his stop. Even his deceased concubine is difficult to attract his attention.
Later, his leg was useless, and he didn't have the heart to stay for a woman, even if it was a beautiful woman, he wouldn't take a second look. His heart had been filled with pain and disappointment, and he would never let go of any woman again.
Now it's different, this girl named Xiao Siyu has successfully attracted his attention, she is proud enough, arrogant enough, savage enough, unlike any woman he has ever seen before. This woman is a hedgehog with a soft appearance, but when she is provoked, she will erect thorns all over her body. Now that he had provoked her, he seemed to have seen the thorns erect all over her body.
"His Royal Highness, you noble man stepped on the ground, if you have something to say, please speak directly," Xiao Ruyu did not salute, and stood there with a cold face and said coldly. "I declare first, I'm not in the mood to listen to you, if you want to teach me a lesson, please turn around and go back." Thinking of the anger he received in the prince's mansion, Xiao Ruyu was a little impatient, her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were a little cold when she looked at the prince of England.
"General Xiao, Qing Jue wants to talk to Ling Ai alone." Shizi didn't answer, but turned his gaze to Xiao Zhongjing and said politely.
Xiao Zhongjing glanced at his daughter worriedly, and saw that she didn't say anything before nodding, "Okay." Siyu, my father is not far outside, you can call me if you have something. After saying that, he turned around and left, and stood not far from the courtyard staring at this side.
Xiao Ruyu leaned against the door, without meaning to close it, and the prince smiled helplessly, "Miss Xiao, are you still angry?" It's all right, you shouldn't lose your temper, and you shouldn't be angry with Miss, please forgive me. He bent over Xiao Ruyu with his fists clenched at him, with full sincerity.
"The prince doesn't have to be like this, although I'm from the countryside, but I can also look at my face, since the prince doesn't like me, just say it, don't apologize. Our countrymen's lives are very cheap, and we can't afford to be the son of the world. Xiao Ruyu didn't reply, her face didn't give her face, and she still said coldly.
"Qingjue definitely doesn't mean to look down on Miss, it's all Qingjue's fault, Miss must not be angry." Shizi sighed in his heart: It's really difficult, why is it so shafted. I've lowered my body so much, why don't you give up.
"How could the son be wrong? My father is a slave of your family, and I am the daughter of a slave, shouldn't we do whatever the master tells us to do? Even if there is a mistake, it is the fault of us minions. Xiao Ruyu continued with a snort.
"Is there such a big spectrum of minions?" Shizi thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it, so he could only smile helplessly.
"It's all clear." "But I never treated the girl like a slave, I thought we were friends," he said. ”
"I can't climb high." Xiao Ruyu pouted, she Xiao Ruyu is not a friend of everyone.
"Qing Jue came this time, and I really sincerely invited Miss to go to Lingnan together. Please be patient and listen to the words. Qing Jue Gongzi consciously apologized, and it was a bit too much to continue to dwell on this matter, and then changed the topic.
Although this girl has a big temper, she is very sensible and forbearant enough, and her apology just now has given her enough face, although her words are decisive, her eyes have softened a lot, and he will ease up his curves after a while, and it should be fine.
"Oh? I want to hear it, why do you think I should go to Lingnan with you? Xiao Ruyu smiled sarcastically, really thinking that she had sold it to their family.
Maybe her father has sold it to them, but her father is her father, she is her, and no one can force her to do what she doesn't want to do. Her father is no exception, and she can do without this father if necessary.
She is actually a little selfish and cold, which is a common disease of modern people, but she is more rational, she will give back to others for their dedication to her, but she will never be the Virgin White Lotus.
If it weren't for Xiao Zhongjing's really good treatment of her, she probably wouldn't really treat him as a father. She will hide far away, just like she treats Zhang Renhe, and give him a paw at any time if she is unhappy.
Her feelings are very restrained, if it weren't for Han Yixuan's affection and strength, she wouldn't have been tempted. Of course, she was slow to move, but quick to retract, so she could quickly calm down after knowing about Han Yixuan and his cousin, and quickly give up this relationship. She is sometimes sane and snobbish.
