Chapter 102: Soft
For the eldest princess's mansion to come again, Xin Yu is not surprised. Although she has no intention of repaying the favor, she also knows that this kind of life-saving grace is not out of sincerity or for the sake of face, and it is not a gift from the steward to pass, and she always has to meet to express her gratitude.
"Convenient." Xin Yu said lightly.
Secretly relieved the old lady with a smile.
Fortunately, this girl didn't say anything.
From the time Xin Yu insisted that Qiao's punishment be forced, the old lady knew that her granddaughter was not a real follower. People are often like this, and with this impression, they dare not control the other party ruthlessly, lest the other party suddenly be more serious.
"Qingqing, when you get to the eldest princess's mansion, listen to Aunt Liu."
Aunt Liu is the aunt in charge from the eldest princess's mansion.
Xin Yu nodded and didn't say anything.
Aunt Liu couldn't help but glance at Xin Yu more, and said in her heart that this Kou girl was not very old, and she looked really calm.
The carriage of the eldest princess's mansion was waiting outside, and the old lady personally sent Xin Yu out, and watched her get into the carriage before going back.
"Yuzhu, ask the third girl to come to Ruyi Hall to talk to me."
Speaking is not an end in itself, but showing love for this granddaughter is the goal.
Duan Yunling knew that her grandmother's sudden change of eyes was because she had a good relationship with her cousin, and she understood more and more what the so-called family affection was like, and she admired and appreciated her independent cousin even more.
"Miss Kou, it's here."
Xin Yu got out of the carriage and followed Aunt Liu all the way inside.
The eldest princess's mansion occupies a huge area, and not long after Xin Yu left, she saw a handsome young man in a green shirt walking over.
"Is this Miss Kou?" The young man came to Xin Yu and asked politely.
Aunt Liu on the side introduced: "This is our eldest son. β
"Gongzi Kong."
The young man smiled: "Mother asked me to welcome Miss Kou." The mother was accompanying her sister, and she couldn't get out of it for a while, and she hoped that Miss Kou wouldn't mind. β
Facing a girl with eyebrows and eyes similar to her mother, Kong Rui inevitably took a few more looks.
He and his sister followed their father's appearance, and when they looked at this Kou girl, they always felt like another sister.
Kong Rui is a cold personality in front of outsiders, because of this strange feeling, he can't be cold in front of Xin Yu, but he doesn't feel relaxed.
"I heard that Miss Kou opened a bookstore alone, is it the Qingsong Bookstore near Guozijian?"
"Yes." Xin Yu is concise and to the point.
"A few years ago, I also studied in Guozijian, and I often went to Qingsong Bookstore to buy books, and I still remember that the young owner at that time was not a few years older than me......"
When the eldest princess of Zhaoyang waited for people to come, what she saw was her son, who was very talkative.
She couldn't help but glance at Aunt Liu, and Aunt Liu replied with a complicated look.
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."
The eldest princess of Zhaoyang got up and personally helped Xin Yu up: "Miss Kou sit." β
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Miss Kou saved the little girl, and she should have thanked her in person, but the little girl was too frightened and couldn't get out."
"Your Highness is too polite, the people's daughter is just a gesture, I believe that if it was someone else, she would do the same."
The eldest princess of Zhaoyang knew that these words were really polite.
She asked carefully later, Miss Kou was not the only one who was nearby at that time, but she dared to rush over to save people in the face of danger, and she was the only one who could save Fu'er in time.
If she felt a little pity because she heard about Miss Kou's life experience before, then now the eldest princess of Zhaoyang has a great impression of the girl in front of her.
"Miss Kou, there is a reluctant invitation from this palace."
"Your Highness has tormented the people's daughter, I don't know what Your Highness commands?"
The eldest princess of Zhaoyang sighed lightly: "The little girl Fu'er has been in fright, even if she is appeased by this palace, she still can't relax. Miss Kou is the one who saved Fu'er, maybe she can calm Fu'er, and this palace wants to ask Miss Kou to talk to her. β
For this request, Xin Yu naturally will not refuse.
Last night, Kong Fu slept with the eldest princess of Zhaoyang, and the eldest princess of Zhaoyang took Xin Yu to the room where she was placed.
The room was lit with a faint soothing incense, and although the girl's eyes were closed, her eyelashes fluttered and she looked unstable.
I don't know if she heard the movement or dreamed something, but when the eldest princess of Zhaoyang and Xin Yu came in, the girl sat up suddenly, crying and calling out to her mother.
This mother made the eldest princess of Zhaoyang very distressed, and quickly came to Kong Fu's side to take her into her arms, and coaxed softly: "Fu'er is not afraid, it's okay." β
After a day, Kong Fu's state looked even worse, and she shrank in the arms of the eldest princess of Zhaoyang and shivered.
"Fu'er, look who's coming."
Kong Fu looked over slowly, her eyes widening slightly: "That sister-"
As she spoke, she unconsciously struggled outward, close to the direction where Xin Yu was.
Xin Yu glanced at the eldest princess of Zhaoyang, got the signal of the eldest princess, and took a few steps forward and sat on the embroidery pier next to the bed.
"Miss Kong, are you better?" Kong Fu looked younger than the fourth girl, Duan Yunyan, and Xin Yu didn't know how to get along with children of this age.
As soon as these words fell, Kong Fu suddenly grabbed Xin Yu's sleeve.
"Monsters, monstersβ"
"Miss Kong, don't be afraid, it's a boar, it's been cut down."
Kong Fu burst into tears and kept shaking her head: "As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw ......"
The eldest princess of Zhaoyang was taken aback: "Fu'er, you can see the boar when you close your eyes?" β
Kong Fu cried and nodded.
The eldest princess of Zhaoyang hugged her daughter distressedly: "Why didn't you tell your mother." β
It turned out that Fu'er was even more frightened than she thought, no wonder she couldn't sleep well all night, and had to burn incense.
Xin Yu moved slightly, and Kong Fu tugged her sleeve: "Sister, don't go!" β
"I'm not leaving." Xin Yu tentatively reached out and patted Kong Fu's arm.
Xu is soothing incense worked, or it may have been the person who saved her from the monster, and it didn't take long for Kong Fu to fall asleep.
The eldest princess of Zhaoyang carefully covered her daughter with the quilt, and smiled apologetically at Xin Yu: "Trouble Miss Kou." β
The two walked outside with light steps, and the autumn wind blew away the soothing incense stained on their bodies.
The eldest princess of Zhaoyang looked into the distance and opened her mouth: "When the palace was pregnant with Fu'er, she was not in a good state, which caused Fu'er to be born prematurely, so she was raised very finely. Fu'er has never suffered much, and it may be that she can't get out of her fear. β
"At that time, the scene was really terrifying, and it was normal for Ai to react at such a young age. Your Highness relaxes, and in a few days this fear should fade. β
The eldest princess of Zhaoyang looked at the girl who was gentle and comforting, and curiosity rose in her heart.
What kind of parents will raise such a calm and generous girl?
Thinking that the girl's parents in front of her had died, the eldest princess of Zhaoyang did not mention this aspect, and sighed lightly and said: "This palace is worried, even if this fear fades, it will become a knot in Fu'er's heart." β
The worry in the eyes of the eldest princess of Zhaoyang was like a feather, touching the softness of Xin Yu's heart. It seems that since the loss of her mother, she will always be soft-hearted because of this.
"The folk girl has an idea, and I'm not sure if I can help Ling Ai eliminate her fear."
