As long as it can help my father tide over the difficulties, I can do anything.
"You have grown up." Jiang's father looked at her happily and said, he knew that his daughter actually knew everything.
Looking at his daughter's rosy face, Jiang's father suddenly said: "Are you interested in someone?"
Jiang Xingge was reaching out to pick up the loquat. When Leng Buding heard these words, his hand froze, and then he retracted stiffly and smiled awkwardly, "Why did father ask this?" Aren't you talking about the Holy One? Why did it suddenly involve her? coming?
"Yes or no?" Father Jiang asked again.
She shook her head, her face very calm. If other women had heard this, they would have turned red with embarrassment. But who is Jiang Xingge? She is not an ordinary woman.
When her old father asked her, she answered openly, "No."
Although he had expected this answer, Father Jiang was still a little disappointed when he heard it with his own ears. His daughter was considered excellent, and she was born as a legitimate daughter. He had never treated her badly. Why didn't he even have a matchmaker?
But she doesn't have a sweetheart herself.
My niece Mu Qingyan, who is one year younger than my daughter, has been engaged to the prince since she was a child. It's almost time to discuss it, but this daughter of mine, alas.
Jiang's father had to worry.
Jiang Xingge couldn't laugh or cry, "Father, don't worry about me. At worst, I just won't get married."
After saying that, he was immediately retorted by Jiang's father, "Nonsense! It's time for a boy to get married and a girl to get married. What are you talking about if you still want to risk your life to failure?"
What's more, she is still his eldest daughter. She actually has such an idea. The eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Palace actually never marries in her life. If word spreads about this, wouldn't it be a joke?
Jiang Xingge lowered his eyes, feeling a little disappointed, "But father, you have also seen that no matchmaker has come to the door so far."
Although she is not as good as Qingyan's cousin, her family is well-off, her father is the prime minister, and she has a first-class official position. Even Jiang Wan has been mentioned by an official son, but she has not.
Father Jiang frowned, "My daughter is as beautiful as a flower, but those people are blind?"
He was doubtful in the bottom of his heart. Jiang Xingge chuckled and said, "Okay, father, maybe it's because the fate has not come yet?" Maybe her true love is not from the court.
"Alas - your eldest brother is not sure, there are more than 20 people."
"But Cousin Mu doesn't have one either! Cousin Mu is one year older than my brother!" Jiang Xingge hurriedly helped to smooth things over, but he was thinking about how to skip this troublesome problem.
Jiang's father glanced at her and snorted coldly: "As a father, you still don't know? What happened between your cousin Mu Xuan and the third princess."
Jiang Xingge's mouth twitched. She wanted to ask her father what else she didn't know.
"But it's true that these two children, both brothers and sisters, are related to the Baili family."
The younger sister is the Crown Princess by default, and the older brother and the third princess are both interested in her.
Nanping, Nanping, what should you do in this situation?
Father Jiang sighed.
Seeing that his mood improved a lot, Jiang Xingge said, "You eat loquats, and I'll give some to mother."
Jiang's father glanced at the loquats on the table and asked, "The ones in the house are not enough for you? Why do you have to go and get the light ones?"
Jiang Xingge was stunned. She didn't seem to say that she got it from her cousin, right? Seeing his father's look of understanding, he laughed dryly, "I can't hide anything from my father, but these loquats don't belong to the palace, but to the prince." Isn’t the gift given to Qingyan particularly sweet?”
A gift from His Highness the Crown Prince? Father Jiang was just surprised and quickly accepted it. It was no secret that the Crown Prince doted on his niece, so there was no need to be too surprised.
But he still snorted coldly, "If you want someone to give you a gift, you should find a suitable husband as soon as possible."
Jiang Xingge's face fell, why did he come back again? If he had known that she would not mention the loquat thing, he would have shot himself in the foot.
It's still very painful.
Instinct told her that she couldn't stay any longer, otherwise this matter would never end, so Jiang Xingge found an excuse and ran away.
How could Father Jiang not know her little thoughts? He just didn't want to expose them, so he let her go.
His eyes returned to the loquat, and he pursed his lips slightly.
Jiang Xingge hurried back to his yard. The door of the house was wide open. At a glance, he could see Jiang Xingsheng with his legs crossed, eating loquats leisurely. There was already a pile of peels piled on the table next to him.
Her face fell, and she trotted in and looked at the loquats that had been killed by a third. She quickly protected the remaining loquats, then turned back and glared at him, "You don't have them in your yard, and they come here to eat mine!" Still eating!
He killed so many loquats as a gift from His Highness the Crown Prince. Things are rare and valuable, and he destroyed so many by himself!
Jiang Xingsheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her, and said matter-of-factly, "Who asked you to stay for so long? Your personal maid didn't even know how to serve me tea. I just ate it when I was thirsty."
The maid next to her paled, and Jiang Xingge looked at her, "Is everything he said true?"
She already had the answer in her mind, but she still asked again.
The maid hurriedly shook her head, looked at Jiang Xingsheng cautiously, and then said softly: "Young Master doesn't want it. He said you can just eat this."
The maid lowered her head and felt a little panicked. After all, this loquat was given to Miss Mu by His Highness the Crown Prince.
really.
"Jiang Xingsheng, you scoundrel!" Jiang Xingge looked at him mockingly, his tone slightly cold.
Jiang Xingsheng looked calm and showed no guilt at all, "The rest is yours."
Jiang Xingge's face darkened. If it weren't for the fact that she was still a girl, she would have had to fight with him.
"Are you still a bit like an elder brother?" She almost squeezed out the words between her teeth.
How can an elder brother snatch something from a younger sister? Isn’t it because their ages are reversed?!
However, as the Taoist master is taller than the devil, Jiang Xingsheng's face is also unparalleled, "It's not like that, which is a pity. I'm just older than you, so I'm still your brother no matter what."
He spread his hands and looked a little helpless, "It's your bad luck. You don't have a brother like Mu Xuan."
"You!" Jiang Xingge stood up and raised his hand, wanting to scratch a few holes in his body, but in the end he retracted his hand.
He sat down angrily and turned his head away from him.
You actually took it back? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you!
Jiang Xingsheng was a little curious, so he leaned over and looked at her slightly sad expression, and immediately said: "Hey, could it be that you were punished by your father?"
Jiang Xingge twitched his mouth and felt very speechless. He said angrily: "I don't have the intention to make trouble with you now. Don't go too far."
What kind of evil has she done? She has an older brother who always likes to bully her. She admires her cousin and protects Qingyan at all times, but her brother is nice. He only creates trouble for her.
Coupled with the conversation she had just had with her father, she suddenly realized a problem. She was getting older and older. One day she would leave the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she would no longer be the carefree Miss Jiang after she got married.
, what if the family she marries doesn’t like her?
