Chapter 40 The words are poked and poked

In the past two years, as the old abbot of Tianlong Temple has grown older, people have life, old age, sickness and death, not everyone can be a monk, on the qualification or on the strength, the master of the net space has become a popular candidate for the next abbot of Tianlong Temple.

Master Clearance actually wanted to break off the relationship with Fang Rongru several times in his heart, but after all, he hesitated and was a little reluctant, and today happened to be an opportunity, so he made a decision.

No matter how Fang Rongru persuaded her, Master Clearance had made up her mind, and in the end, he floated away in her disappointed face.

At the same time as Master Jingkong left, news came out from Qinse Academy that the county lord of Rouping fell ill, and the disease was menacing, which alarmed several imperial doctors to consult at the same time.

Hearing this news, naturally some people were happy and some were worried, and everyone had their own thoughts, and for a while, the undercurrent of the Hou Mansion surged.

After Xiao Kezhong received the news, he was so frightened that he took three steps and two steps and went straight to Qinse Courtyard, he was inexplicably weak-hearted.

After Xuanbao entered the mansion, his mother, the county lord of Rouping, seemed to be all right all of a sudden, and without anyone else's words, Xiao Kezhong felt that he was angry with himself.

When he came to Qinse Courtyard, when Xiao Kezhong came to the door, he was stopped by Mama Ying.

"The eldest prince, the county lord needs to rest, and he doesn't see anyone."

"Mama Ying, I won't disturb my mother's rest, I'll just go in and have a look." Xiao Kezhong raised his feet and was about to go inside.

Mama Ying spread out her hands and stopped Xiao Kezhong: "Eldest son, don't embarrass the slaves. ”

"Why are you holding us back?" There was a reprimand behind him, and Xiao Mingzhu also rushed to hear the news.

"Big brother, how is my mother?" Xiao Keyi and Xiao Kaili followed closely behind Xiao Mingzhu.

Xiao Kezhong shook his head slightly: "I don't know, I haven't seen it yet." ”

"Let's go in and have a look." Xiao Mingzhu carried the hem of her skirt and stepped up the steps to Xiao Kezhong's side and hurriedly walked inside.

"Miss Six, stay." Mama Ying was neither humble nor arrogant, and said with a slight bow.

Xiao Mingzhu looked up at Mama Ying and sighed in her heart, strange, how do you feel a little different from the past? This old Diao slave is a snob, and her mother is partial to Xuanbao and doesn't like herself, so she must have noticed it.

"Mama Ying, as children, our mother is sick, we should take a look."

"The slave doesn't know what to do or shouldn't, only to obey the orders of the county lord."

Xiao Mingzhu snorted coldly and was about to rush forward, but was dragged by Xiao Kezhong.

"Big brother?"

"Mingzhu, don't worry, let's wait, Mama Lao Ying will report, let's just take a look."

Seeing that Xiao Kezhong was anxious but still able to act according to the rules, Mama Ying had a slight smile in her eyes, it seemed that she was not the eldest prince.

"A few sons and young ladies are waiting here, and the slaves and maids go in to report." After finishing speaking, Mama Ying stood on the left and right of the door and several maids glanced at each other before turning around and entering.

"Why are you all stuck here? What about mothers? A thin figure rushed over, it was Xiao Keren, the third elder of the Xiao family.

"Third brother." A few small ones turned around and called.

"Look, they're guarding the door, saying that Mother won't let us in." Xiao Mingzhu pouted.

Xiao Keren asked suspiciously, "Why?" ”

"I don't know." Xiao Mingzhu's eyes rolled, "It has been less than two hours since my eldest brother and I left Qinse Courtyard, and my mother was fine at that time." ”

was reminded by Xiao Mingzhu's words, Xiao Kezhong reacted: "Yes." Mother was fine when we left. ”

"Big brother, the second brother and Xuanbao were still there when we left, didn't the two of them let their mother worry? Or did you say something and do something to annoy your mother? Otherwise, how can a person fall ill? Xiao Mingzhu openly and secretly asked Xiao Kezhong to throw the pot on Xuanbao and Xiao Kexiao.

Xiao Keren raised his voice: "It's that Xuanbao again." ”

"Second brother, do you think I'm carrying a black pot for others?" There was a thick irony in the childish voice.

Looking in the direction of the sound, on the big tree in front of the door, Xiao Kexiao and Xuanbao sat flat, their postures were still very consistent, their backs leaning on the branches, their hands supporting their cheeks on their legs, looking down at them.

Xiao Kexiao looked at the people under the tree and said calmly: "Xuanbao, the tree is really an excellent place to watch a play, not only can you see it clearly from a high position, but you can also hear it clearly. ”

"People's hearts are unpredictable, second brother, do you think I am wronged? I was blocked outside and didn't even see my mother's face, how could it be my fault? ”

Coughing lightly, Xiao Kezhong stepped forward and raised his voice: "Mingzhu is just talking casually, unintentionally." ”

Unintentionally, not intentionally, similar words to defend Xiao Mingzhu have been heard a lot in a short period of time.

"You're Xuanbao." Xiao Keren stepped forward and looked up at the little doll, his eyes were full of coldness, "Pay attention to your identity, everyone should not go up the tree." It's not big, it's not small, and whoever is there is no bigger than you. ”

"There are more people on the street who are older than me." Xuan Bao blinked.

Xiao Keren said patiently: "I mean, all of you are your brothers and sisters, and you should be respectful when you are young." ”

"Except for the second brother, who treats me as a sister." Xuan Bao smiled angrily, "Don't treat me as a sister but want me to treat you as a brother and sister, this son, what you said is really interesting." ”

Xuan Bao just told the truth, and the sarcasm in her words was not in her consideration.

Xiao Kexiao couldn't help but admire Xuanbao, who could make the third brother so embarrassed that he couldn't speak, Xuanbao was the first.

You just die, Xiao Mingzhu was secretly happy, but on the surface, he stepped forward with an angry face and said, "Xuanbao, you are too rude." Third brother, don't be angry. ”

Seeing that Xiao Kezhong was about to speak, Xuanbao returned the original words to him without missing a word: "I just said it casually, unintentionally." ”

One sentence blocked Xiao Kezhong's mouth, and even Xiao Kexiao was a little surprised, ordinary Xuanbao would not be so sharp-toothed, it can be seen that she is really ruthless today.

At this moment, Mama Ying walked out, and Xiao Keyi took the lead in asking, "Mama, does Mother want to see us?" ”

Mama Ying shook her head and then looked up and shouted, "Second son, seventh miss, the county lord wants to see you." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Kezhong and the others showed shocked looks, and their mother didn't want to see them, so she only saw the two of them.

"Big brother." Xiao Mingzhu pulled Xiao Kezhong's sleeve and motioned for him to bend down and whispered in his ear, "Even if Mother doesn't see the others, it's impossible not to see you." ”

Xiao Kezhong's heart sank, indeed, since he could remember, if it is said that among the brothers, the mother of Rouping County Lord loves him the most, not only because he is the first child, but also because he is sensible, he takes care of his younger brothers and sisters.

"Big brother, Xuanbao is really a little weird, since she came, the second brother is not like the second brother, and the mother is not like the mother anymore." Xiao Mingzhu said, with a glint in his eyes.
