Chapter 17: Careful Makeup

When He Xi made a special trip to pick up his sister from the Drunken Pavilion and go home, he took the first step to take over the list of He Xiaoxiao's expenses today from the little servant in the Drunken Pavilion.

Although he knew that the Drunken Pavilion cost a lot of money, and he didn't feel sorry for his money, he really didn't expect that the two little girls could spend so much money in the Drunken Pavilion.

"You, you, how much have you eaten with two little girls of this age?" When checking out, He Xi almost emptied the money he was carrying, and he was about to pay on credit.

Before He Xi's words fell, he saw Tan Yin, who was following He Xiaoxiao, walking out with two food boxes.

"Because some of the dim sum is novel and delicious." He Xiaoxiao asked Tanyin to hand over a food box to the maid who followed Wang Mingzhu. "I asked his little guy about it, and those dim sum can't be bought all the time, so I came here and asked people to pack some of them. Brother, don't be stingy, Mingzhu's brother is your classmate, beware of people who know and laugh at you. ”

"Thank you Brother He for your hospitality." Wang Mingzhu thanked him with some embarrassment.

"Well, it's not that I'm afraid to spend this money." He Xi explained helplessly. "I'm afraid that you will eat too much food outside and eat badly."

The two brothers and sisters of the He family sent Wang Mingzhu home first, and when they arrived at the door of Wang's house, the two little girls got out of the carriage and held hands and said goodbye.

"Xiaoxiao, you must remember to take me with you during the Qixi Lantern Festival." Wang Mingzhu whispered to He Xiaoxiao's ear to remind.

"I remember." He Xiaoxiao nodded. "It's just that when you go out at night, you have to talk to your family."

"Okay." Wang Mingzhu saw that the maid beside her mother had already walked to the door of the house, probably because her mother was worried that she was returning late for the first time, so she asked the maid to come over to see if she had returned home. "Then I'll go."

"Mm-hmm, you slow down." He Xiaoxiao stood in place and waited for Wang Mingzhu to enter the mansion before returning to his carriage.

"Did you have fun today?" He Xi said with a smile. "It's rare to see a young lady you have such a good time with."

"Mingzhu is different from those young ladies." He Xiaoxiao leaned sideways on the carriage.

"What did you just whisper again?" He Xi asked again.

"Brother, can you take me and Mingzhu to see this year's Qixi Lantern Festival?" He Xiaoxiao turned around and grabbed He Xi's sleeve and begged. "Mingzhu has never seen the lantern festival in the imperial capital, so I promised to take her to see it. But if it was just the two of us, Mother would not have allowed us to come out. ”

"It's good for you, you agreed to someone before it was done." He Xi counted her down angrily. "Why didn't you ask me if I had any other arrangements that day?"

"Does my brother have any other arrangements?" He Xiaoxiao looked at He Xi with a blank eye and asked sincerely.

"Well, now even if there is, it's gone." He Xi choked angrily.

Mother and father have always been pampered with their sister, and they almost obey her requests as long as they are not excessive.

He Xiaoxiao and Wang Mingzhu, the two girls, went out to watch the evening lantern festival, and their mother would definitely let the guards of the princess's mansion accompany her out.

"Hehe, I've wronged my brother." He Xiaoxiao took out a bulging purse from his arms and handed it to He Xi.

He Xi only felt heavy when he took over, and when he opened it, he found that it was stuffed with delicate silver ingots.

"Your brother, I won't be poor by you in one meal." He Xi raised his hand and threw the purse back to He Xiaoxiao. "Keep it for yourself."

"I don't want it." He Xiaoxiao turned his hand and stuffed the purse back, and after stuffing it, he pressed He Xi's hand with his hand and said. "Brother, don't push me around."

He Xi had no choice, so he had to accept the purse in the end.

"Do you want to shout the order on the day of Qixi Festival?" He Xi hesitated for a moment and asked.

Unexpectedly, after He Xiaoxiao listened to his proposal, his cheeks were printed with a faint crimson, and he lowered his head shyly.

Speaking of which, since Xie Lingci came to see her in the morning that day, and then the two elders finalized the marriage proposal for them, the two have not met again.

"If you want to shout, shout." He Xiaoxiao opened her mouth, her voice was as low as a mosquito, if she hadn't listened carefully, He Xi would have almost heard what she was talking about.

"When the eldest sister comes home, I will announce your marriage to the public." He Xi suddenly felt like the eldest princess of Chengguo in his heart. "Although you and Ling Ci have known each other since childhood, it's good for you to get along more before marriage, and I'll call him together on the day of Qixi Festival."

He Xiaoxiao doesn't care much about clothes and jewelry on weekdays, because she is the palm bead of the eldest princess of Chengguo, what style of jewelry is new and exquisitely made, the eldest princess of Chengguo doesn't know how much to buy for her every year.

It's just that when this year's Qixi Festival was approaching, she suddenly changed her temperament, and asked Tanyin and Quyin to take out all her new dresses and jewelry this year to choose.

All of a sudden, the Spring Heart Garden was very lively, and the noisy movement also attracted the eldest princess of Chengguo and the Li family.

"It seems that Xiaoxiao is indeed satisfied with the order." Li said with a smile to the eldest princess of Chengguo beside him. "You go in and choose for her, otherwise I'm afraid that she will be dizzy and delay going out for an appointment on the day of Qixi Festival."

After sending off the Li family, the eldest princess of Chengguo took people into Chunxin Garden.

"You have a white complexion, so it is better to choose a bright dress." The eldest princess of Chengguo turned her head sideways and signaled that light red stepped forward, and light red directly chose a few sets of brightly colored dresses. "If you don't choose too many jewelry, it's not good to look good when you're smiling and smiling."

He Xiaoxiao didn't expect that the eldest princess of Chengguo would suddenly appear, and her pale little face suddenly turned red.

She waved her hand for Tan Yin to quickly take the dress selected by the light red, and asked the maids who were holding the dress or holding the jewelry box in their hands to step back.

"Why did Mother come all of a sudden?" He Xiaoxiao touched his hot side face and asked in a low voice.

"I accompanied your grandmother for a walk in the yard, and I didn't walk a few steps before I heard the battle in your yard, and I was curious to come and have a look." The eldest princess of Chengguo said with a smile. "Seeing that you really can't choose anything, I want to come in and get an idea for you."

"It's not that I can't choose, it's just that my mother has bought too many dresses for me this year." He Xiaoxiao blushed and argued. "Mother is not allowed to make fun of me."

"How could I make fun of you?" The eldest princess of Chengguo touched her daughter's head with relief.

In order to stop Zhong Lijue from continuing to worry about her daughter, she hurriedly arranged a marriage with Xie Lingci for her daughter.

He Xiaoxiao had just turned twelve years old, and the eldest princess of Chengguo was originally worried that she agreed to the marriage only because she had known Xie Lingci since childhood.

In the heart of the eldest princess of Chengguo, He Xiaoxiao is the best girl in the imperial capital, and the prince likes it, let alone Xie Ling's resignation.

However, it is better to be happy with each other than to marry blindly and dumbly.
