Chapter 442 Dressing up
Jiaojiao was a little surprised by her mother's reaction, but she still looked at it carefully.
My mother must have just woken up. She is wearing a simple and elegant earthy apricot-colored dress that is a little wrinkled. Her bun is only fixed with a hairpin. She has no accessories on her ears and neck. However, she has fair skin and a rich and generous figure.
Jiaojiao patted her mother's hair wrinkles and said, "My mother's clothes are a bit plain, but the overall simplicity is feasible."
Liu Zhihua looked down at her clothes again and raised her hand to touch her face before she realized what she was doing. She woke up and before wiping her face, she hurriedly said: "Oh, no, mother, please go back to the house first."
"Oh," Jiaojiao watched helplessly as her mother ran away, scratching her chin in confusion as to what was wrong with her.
Jiaojiao looked around the room, and it seemed that she could no longer hear her father's voice. She walked towards the room, and happened to meet Rong Yan walking out.
The candied haws in Jiaojiao's hand almost got on someone's clothes. Seeing that Brother Yan was the only one, she looked behind her on her toes and asked in a low voice: "Where's my dad?"
Rong Yan heard that his head was a little heavy, so he said softly: "Uncle is asleep. I helped him to rest on the couch in the back room."
Jiaojiao's eyes widened slightly, then she looked at Brother Yan, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Rong Yan saw the little girl smiling, and he had no choice but to tap her on the forehead with his finger, and asked dotingly: "Silly girl, you are laughing at me or your father."
Jiaojiao immediately said: "Of course you won't laugh at my father, I am laughing at you."
Rong Yan looked helpless, "Oh~"
Suddenly, he bent down and looked at the candied haws in the little girl's hand, bit into one, and then walked out the door.
Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around and followed.
When Rong Yan heard the footsteps behind him, he raised the corners of his mouth, put his hands behind his back, and chewed the sweet hawthorn in his mouth.
"Hello,"
Jiaojiao yelled before she could speak.
Rong Yan pretended not to hear it, but his steps slowed down a bit.
Jiaojiao thought he was angry, so she walked around in front of him faster, handed him the bunch of candied haws he had bitten, and said softly: "Here, here you go."
Rong Yan raised his eyebrows, took it with the corner of his mouth raised, and said, "Well, thank you."
Jiaojiao picked up another bunch and put it to her mouth, opened her mouth and bit into one, and said with a big smile: "Brother Yan did well today, my dad likes you so much."
"Well, it's mainly because my uncle is sensible." Rong Yan replied with a smile.
Jiaojiao glanced at him and felt that Brother Yan was also very good at flattering.
Thinking that her mother would come over soon, Jiaojiao didn't ask anything, but said to her colleagues: "Brother Yan, please go home early. Grandma must be waiting for you to eat. Dad probably won't wake up for a while. Change
Come back when you have time."
Rong Yan rubbed her head, nodded and said, "Yeah, okay."
We stayed here for a long time today, and after lunch we had to go to Jiaocheng. There had been some unusual movements there in the past two days. The secret guard found traces of Princess Shengyuan hiding there this morning, and he was going to go there in person.
, Prince Gong looked for him in the morning for this reason.
After Jiaojiao sent people away, she went back to see her father, conveyed some spiritual power, and then went to the study to greet Brother Wei Qing and the others.
When Liu Zhihua arrived, dressed brightly, the only person in the front hall was Wang Zhuangzhi, who was sleeping soundly. She searched around but did not see the Imperial Master.
"Jiaojiao?"
Liu Zhihua shouted.
The maid at the door ran in and said, "Mrs. Qi, the young lady has gone to the eldest young master's study."
Liu Zhihua was stunned, thinking they were going to the study to talk, so she ordered: "Go and ask the kitchen to prepare more exquisite dishes."
"Yes." The maid nodded quickly.
Liu Zhihua yelled at the boss for not waking up. He walked closer and smelled the faint smell of alcohol. He immediately hit him angrily and cursed: "Oh, you careless one, you even learned how to drink secretly!"
"Hoo—hoo—" Wang Zhuangzhi slept soundly, and his snoring was deafening.
Liu Zhihua stood up angrily and simply ignored him. She was going to go to Qiu Sheng's study to see what was going on. Isn't Qiu Sheng the Imperial Master that I don't want to see? What are you doing in the study?
Liu Zhihua was thinking as she walked outside. When she was about to reach Qiu Sheng's yard, she saw Bao Ya and A Qin coming back.
"Baoya, you must be tired from this trip. If you are tired, go back to the house and have a rest. You will have dinner soon."
Liu Zhihua took out her handkerchief and stepped forward, wiping the sweat from her daughter's forehead.
Bao Ya smiled and shook her head. Seeing that you were very beautifully dressed today, she circled her mother and said, "Mom, how can you be tired while driving in a carriage? You were sweating just now from the sun."
Liu Zhihua nodded, looked at the maid behind her daughter carrying those boxes, and said with a smile: "You kid, why are you carrying these big and small bags to the backyard? If it is for the wedding banquet, it can be placed directly in the warehouse in the front yard, and it will be easy to get it when the time comes.
”
Bao Ya shook his head and said with a puzzled look on his face: "Mom, I didn't buy this, this was sent by the Imperial Master. The housekeepers carried some of them into the backyard. There were so many left outside, so I asked the maid to carry them to the backyard.
”
Liu Zhihua was stunned for a moment, and felt a little more comfortable after hearing this. This was more or less the same, he still had some concerns.
But he still whispered to Bao Ya: "The Imperial Master is still in your eldest brother's room, so don't move them all back to the backyard. People will think that we are just getting up on the pole to receive gifts."
Bao Ya was even more confused. She had just encountered the Imperial Master's carriage on her way back. How could she still be in her eldest brother's room?
She reminded in a low voice: "Mom, have you misunderstood something? The Imperial Master has left just now."
The smile on Liu Zhihua's lips stopped and she said quickly: "You girl, I just heard Jiaojiao say you are here."
"I just met the Imperial Master on the road, and they all went back to their homes." Baoya said helplessly.
Seeing that her daughter was not lying, Liu Zhihua suddenly felt like a deflated ball and muttered: "He said he knew etiquette, why did he leave without even saying hello? There is a wolf in our family to chase."
Bao Ya had just come back and didn't know what was going on here, but the Imperial Master was probably not that kind of person, so he comforted him: "Didn't you say that Jiaojiao is at Big Brother's place? Otherwise, go ask Jiaojiao. I guess she has someone."
It’s urgent to leave now. The Imperial Advisor is helping the Emperor handle state affairs at the moment. It’s understandable that he is busy with official duties.”
Liu Zhihua choked up when she heard this. It was true. At such a young age, this Imperial Master outnumbered tens of thousands of people. Qiu Sheng was very busy even when he was promoted. A high-ranking official like him is probably even busier.
Alas, forget it.
Being able to take the time to come to my house and bring a gift is not bad. As a person, you can't ask for too much. There are no perfect people in the world.
"I originally wanted to go to your elder brother's place to meet someone, but since he has already left, I won't go."
After Liu Zhihua finished speaking, she sighed. She went back to the house and was tired from all the fuss. If she had known better, she would have worn her original clothes.
Bao Ya also realized that the reason why her mother was dressed up was because the Imperial Master was here, and she was still a little curious. She didn't want to see people, so how could she dress up like herself?
Just at this moment, Qiu Sheng, Wei Qing and his entourage came out.
