Chapter 20 Entering the House
He Xiaoqiao stood up and walked around twice, twisted his neck, shook his head, and was finally satisfied.
That's right, it's much easier.
"Alright, alright, don't bother. Hurry up and pack up, the sedan chair is almost here. Aunt Mu San walked in, clapped her hands and motioned for a few maids to change He Xiaoqiao's clothes.
He Xiaoqiao is happy to have someone to help.
The complexity of the ancient clothes was beyond her imagination, and she couldn't tell where and where she couldn't tell where and where, and even if she was busy at night, she might not be able to put on the whole outfit without help.
"The girl is so pretty." The youngest fennel said with a smile while swinging his clothes for He Xiaoqiao, "What the prince said is indeed right, the girl is most suitable for wearing lake-green clothes, and it makes people want to be close to her." β
But all individuals have vanity, especially when the object is a woman, a compliment can play a greater role. As soon as Fennel said this, He Xiaoqiao's whole face immediately lit up.
"Really?" Pulling the corner of her skirt and turning around twice, He Xiaoqiao happily picked up the mirror and looked at it over and over again, the more she looked, the more satisfied she became, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that Jiang Fenghao's vision was good.
"All right, my good girl, put the veil on quickly." Aunt Mu had just turned back from the window, snatched the mirror in He Xiaoqiao's hand angrily and funny, and handed her the veil on the table next to her, "The sedan chair is already waiting outside, and we are still rushing to the banquet." β
"Yes, dear third aunt!"
He Xiaoqiao stuck out his tongue and obediently took the veil and hung it up. Although she was extremely curious about what Aunt Mu San's mouth was talking about, according to her previous experience, this junior Obasan, whose mouth was firmer than superglue, would never tell her, so she had better save some effort to see for herself.
Dressed properly, a group of six mermaids went downstairs, Aunt Mu Sanjie walked to the front, and the four fennel surrounded He Xiaoqiao in the middle. Although it was past breakfast time, there were still many people in the inn, and everyone was even more surprised to see He Xiaoqiao wearing a veil.
He Xiaoqiao had never been watched by so many people at the same time, and even the veil on her face made her feel as if she had been stripped nakedβand now she finally understood how the monkeys in the zoo felt when they were being watched and pointed.
Hurriedly out of the inn, everyone saw a luxury sedan chair with purple tassels outside, except for the sedan chair bearer, the sedan chair was actually followed by a team of guards wearing armor and looking very serious.
The corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously under the veil, He Xiaoqiao almost wanted to go crazy - what the hell is Jiang Fenghao doing?
Glancing at the crowd gathering more and more, He Xiaoqiao, who was really not used to being watched, was nervous and awkward, walking and walking, and accidentally became the same hand and foot. Fortunately, Qiao'er was careful, walked two steps quickly and stepped forward to help her, which finally calmed her down a little.
smiled at her gratefully, led by Bixin and plunged into the sedan chair, as soon as the sedan curtain was lowered, He Xiaoqiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled off the veil on his face without saying a word.
"Damn Jiang Fenghao, deliberately made the old lady make a fool of himself, right? Wait back and see how I clean you up! β
Throwing the veil aside indignantly, He Xiaoqiao rolled up his two sleeves with his eyes blazing, clenched his fists and waved them forward, and then let out a painful sigh, quickly withdrew his hand, and grinned and rubbed his shoulder, which had become stiff and painful due to nervousness.
With a loud 'sedan chair' outside, He Xiaoqiao hurriedly grabbed the curtain next to him to stabilize his body.
I didn't know how far I had walked all the way, until the sedan chair stopped, and I seemed to hear the sound of the door closing, and Bixin whispered a reminder outside, "Girl, we have arrived." β
He Xiaoqiao just wanted to stretch out her hand, but she didn't expect someone to lift the sedan curtain faster than her, and then a slender male palm that only a pianist had reached out in front of her.
As soon as he raised his head, he looked at Shangjiang Fenghao's handsome smiling face that made people feel like a spring breeze, He Xiaoqiao hesitated for a while, pouted, and didn't want to lose his face after all, so he handed his hand to his palm and asked him to take himself out of the sedan chair.
"Welcome to the Humble House." Jiang Fenghao smiled at the corner of his mouth, held He Xiaoqiao with one hand, and made a funny gesture of inviting her.
He Xiaoqiao looked around, only to find that they were already in the courtyard.
Seeing that there were a few sweeping servants around him secretly looking over here, He Xiaoqiao nodded at them in a friendly manner, and when he came back to his senses, he immediately asked Jiang Fenghao in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "You have been playing dumb riddles with me since yesterday, can you tell me what you want to do now?" β
"The secret of heaven must not be revealed, wait a little longer," after a little Tai Chi, Jiang Fenghao habitually laughed out of a mouthful of white teeth, "You'll know later." β
He Xiaoqiao grinned at him, and withdrew his hand without smiling.
It's so hot, holding hands is just a way to feel uncomfortable β don't you notice that your hands are sweating?
Jiang Fenghao glanced back at her, but he was not angry, his eyes stared at her face that was flushed with discomfort, and his smile became brighter and brighter.
"Let's go, let's get to know someone first."
"Let's go."
He Xiaoqiao snorted twice, his eyes swept around, only to find that Aunt Mu and Bixin didn't know where to go, and now they were standing under a big tree that looked quite old and could only be embraced by two people. There were unknown birds fluttering around in the dense canopy, stopping from time to time and chirping happily.
Not far from them, a middle-aged man with half-white hair and a dignified appearance was standing at the door of the hall on crutches, his shrewd eyes looking her up and down.
He Xiaoqiao was a little nervous when he looked like a big man, for fear that if he offended him, his life would be lost. But then I thought about it, she only had one bad life now, and if she died early, she might be able to return to modern times, so she immediately sorted out her facial expression, and glared back with extremely sharp eyes that did not admit defeat.
The middle-aged man probably didn't expect He Xiaoqiao to suddenly change his face, and he was obviously stunned, but soon, he smiled unexpectedly.
"This is Uncle Liu, who grew up watching me grow up," Jiang Fenghao pulled He Xiaoqiao over and introduced her to her in a serious manner, "Uncle Liu used to be my mother's cronies, and now he is the head of the palace." β
Explorer?
He Xiaoqiao stared at the middle-aged man in front of him who suddenly became quite kind, and tried to control his eyes from drifting towards his lower body-the head of the palace and the head of the inner house, it should be ...... It's different, right?
"It turned out to be Manager Liu......" searched in his mind for a long time, and the sentence 'hello' almost blurted out, He Xiaoqiao smiled awkwardly, and quickly changed his words when he came to his mouth, "Fortunately, fortunately." β
As a subordinate to the ranks of his subordinates, he let Jiang Fenghao, the prince, take the lead in introducing him, and it seems that the status of this manager Liu in Jiang Fenghao's heart can be imagined.
Uncle Liu, Uncle Liu...... Jiang Fenghao should respect him as a real elder.
"You're Miss Ho, aren't you? Don't be too rusty, "Although I have secretly observed He Xiaoqiao before, but now that we have officially met, Liu Yidao is obviously more satisfied with this future princess."
Glancing at Jiang Fenghao, who was watching the show next to him, Liu Yidao said with a smile, "Since this kid Feng Hao officially took you back to the mansion, it proves that he is ...... Ahem, you are like him, just call me Uncle Liu. "Anyway, it will be a family in the future, so there is no need to be too polite.
Although I always felt that something was weird, but seeing that the two men didn't look at her as an outsider at all, He Xiaoqiao thought about it and finally decided to be good, "Uncle Liu." β
"Good, good, good." Liu Yidao reached out and stroked his goatee, and laughed so hard that his eyes almost narrowed into a slit.
That's when β
"Gollum ......"
It was not a big sound, but it made the whole atmosphere of the scene freeze.
He Xiaoqiao's face turned red, and he hurriedly covered his stomach, which was growling, and awkwardly grabbed the back of his head and explained, "What's that...... I didn't eat breakfast. β
Jiang Fenghao was dumbfounded on the spot, and Liu Yidao laughed uncontrollably.
Then he was a little annoyed when he saw He Xiaoqiao being laughed, so he hurriedly came out to save the scene, "Cough, it's all Feng Hao's poor thinking and tiredness of Miss He." β
"That's right," He Xiaoqiao grinned, nodding his head with concern, "This guy has been mysterious since yesterday, and he doesn't know what the hell he is doing, and he refuses to say anything when he asks him." Woke me up early this morning and tossed and didn't give me food. β
No wonder she always had a feeling of weakness in her hands and feet from just now, at first she thought she was nervous, but she didn't expect that she was hungry because she missed breakfast at all.
Thinking of this, He Xiaoqiao turned to look at Liu Yidao hopefully, "Uncle Liu, is there anything to eat in the kitchen now?" If you don't have it, lend me the kitchen and I can cook it myself. β
"How can there be a reason to let the distinguished guests cook by themselves," Liu Yidao glanced at Jiang Fenghao, who was full of chagrin, with a smile on his face, and saw that he didn't seem to have recovered from the frustration, so he cleared his throat and ordered loudly to the little guy who followed behind him, "It's almost noon now, let the kitchen prepare lunch." Tell the chef to hurry up, don't go hungry. β
The little girl nodded, and when he was about to leave, Liu Yidao hurriedly added, "By the way, let the kitchen send some pastries over first, and let Miss He cushion her stomach." β
"Thank you, Uncle Liu!"
He Xiaoqiao was so moved that he almost knelt down for Liu Yidao, what a good person!
Compared with He Xiaoqiao's excitement, Jiang Fenghao was full of sadness.
He only remembered to take He Xiaoqiao back to the palace in a beautiful manner, but he forgot to ask someone to prepare breakfast for her first...... No wonder she almost wanted to kill him with her eyes just now.
But it's a good thing to add, it's just a small mistake, and he has a lot of time to make up for it later.
"Lady, come with me first."
Reaching out and pulling He Xiaoqiao, who was about to take the pastry from the maid's hand, out, Jiang Fenghao frowned, and silently led her to the front yard.
"My mille-feuille cake ......" He Xiaoqiao was dragged away by him, so she had to stretch out her arms in vain, and watched with tears on her face as the plate of fragrant pastries became farther and farther away from her.
"Banana, you Bara! If you don't give food, you don't even have a mille-feuille! Jiang Fenghao, you bastard...... Belch? He Xiaoqiao originally held back his anger and wanted to settle accounts with Jiang Fenghao, but when he turned around, he was startled first, and almost didn't bite his tongue.
I saw that under the steps directly opposite the two, the entire courtyard was densely packed with people, and when I looked at it suddenly, the black pressed human head was like a pile of black sesame seeds that would move, which made people get goosebumps when they saw it.
"Goo," swallowing a big mouthful of saliva, He Xiaoqiao subconsciously wanted to hide behind Jiang Fenghao, "Hey, Jiang Fenghao, what is this for?" β
Standing on a high place and being stared at by so many people at the same time, this feeling is the same as being forced to give a speech on the podium when you were a student, and it makes people feel like a chrysanthemum is tightβin short, four words: a lot of pressure!
"Look."
Jiang Fenghao didn't let He Xiaoqiao back down, pulled her back with a hard pull, and forced her to stand in the same position as him.
He Xiaoqiao didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he had to stand in place awkwardly, secretly gritting his teeth and pulling his sleeve and threatening in a low voice, "Jiang Fenghao, you are enough!" Stop it! β
"Everyone prick up your ears for me and listen carefully," Jiang Fenghao didn't care about her, and held her soft in his hand with his backhand, his aura was full of eyes, and he swept all the people present, and then announced in a deep voice, "From today on, this girl He next to me is your future princess, my fiancΓ©e." What she said in the future was my command, did you hear it clearly? β
