Chapter 150: I can still guard Jiaojiao for a few years
When Wen Jiaojiao returned to the Xiao Mansion, it was noisy and lively all the way from the door to the main hall, and there were only a few people she knew.
She looked at those people either in amazement or inquisitiveness, and the scrutinizing gaze made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
Today is her birthday and hair-raising ceremony, and she is the protagonist. Although many guests have never seen her, they can guess pretty well by looking at her dazzling dress.
It has been a long time since Wen Jiaojiao felt the discomfort of social fear. These days, she was staying with people she knew closely, so she would not have felt this way.
As soon as she entered the courtyard outside the main hall, which was filled with various seats, the looks she received from relatives and friends of the Xiao family made her feel even more numb.
Help, who are these relatives?
"Oh! This must be Jiaojiao. It will make it easier for my aunt to wait!"
A middle-aged beautiful woman came forward and took Wen Jiaojiao's hand and brought her to a group of people. Then there were all kinds of exclamations and compliments, and there were other things about her aunt and uncle, but she didn't even recognize her.
come out.
Xiao Qingyu and Xiao Yurong were sitting in the corridor, watching Wen Jiaojiao surrounded by the women with a confused look on their faces. They all looked at her with smiles and had no intention of rescuing her.
"It would be nice for Jiao Jiao to get to know these relatives more. They are all relatives from Yunzhou." Xiao Qingyu said.
They invited all relatives from Yunzhou, as well as friends who fought together on the battlefield in the past and their relatives.
But in addition to them, there were also some people who came to invite Wen Jiaojiao on their own behalf.
On such an occasion, with the Queen and the Prince sitting in attendance and so many royal relatives and nobles, it was natural for them to get to know each other and make friends.
Even the virtuous concubine De Fei also came.
Those who came to the door with congratulatory gifts and blessings, who had some prestige in the court, and were neighbors of the Xiao family, naturally they could not refuse.
But some people don't think about it. The father, who is relatively gentle, wants to take this opportunity to win back Xiao Yurong, but he can't even get in through the door of Xiao Mansion.
"Yurong, Yurong..."
Mei Shiniang sat next to her and whispered in her ear: "Song Chuan is talking to Xiao Yan inside, don't you go and see him?"
Xiao Yurong looked at her daughter and said, "Why should I go to see him?"
Mei Shiniang clapped her hand and said, "He finally returned to the capital. I heard that he will live in the capital permanently and may take a post in the capital instead of going back to the southwest."
Xiao Yurong looked away, the smile on her lips fell, and said: "So what? What does it have to do with me?"
Mei Shiniang looked at her indifferent look and sighed, "You, we all saw that Song Chuan was so fond of you in the early years. Now that you have divorced and he is alone, you really
Don’t you think about yourself?”
Xiao Yurong smiled and said, "No, I have nothing to look forward to at this age. Now it's enough for me to guard Jiao Jiao."
Mei Shiniang: "How many more years can you keep Jiao Jiao? When Jiao Jiao gets married in the future, won't you be alone?"
Mei Shiniang looked at the group of women surrounding Wen Jiaojiao, and said to Xiao Yurong: "Look, look, they are eager to take Jiaojiao back as their daughter-in-law right now, so wolves are surrounding Jiaojiao's piece of fat, I
Let’s see how long you can keep it.”
Mei Shiniang felt sorry for Xiao Yurong. She only had a daughter, and she would get married sooner or later. When the time came, she would be alone with no children and no husband, so how lonely she would be.
Xiao Yurong shook her head, with a hint of bitterness in her eyes.
If Jiao Jiao could get married safely and live a long life, why would she have these worries?
She would not think about these things until Jiao Jiao's body could not be cured by life-saving medicine.
Mei Shiniang knew that she could not persuade Xiao Yurong, so she shook her head and felt it was a pity.
The Xiao family are the most stubborn.
Xiao Yurong turned her attention to her daughter again and couldn't help but laugh when she saw that she finally couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the women and ducked out of their encirclement.
Wen Jiaojiao looked at Xiao Yurong with a pitiful expression.
Xiao Yurong smiled and waved to her, "Jiaojiao, come quickly."
Wen Jiaojiao walked up to Xiao Yurong, looked at Xiao Yurong and his aunt and uncle who were sitting here, and curled his lips, "It turns out that my aunt and uncle are watching Jiaojiao's show."
"Oh, how could we go to the theater? Jiao Jiao Jiao would be unhappy." Mei Shiniang immediately took Wen Jiao Jiao into her arms and comforted her.
Wen Jiaojiao was not really angry, she was just a little helpless. She didn't know those relatives, and she felt quite uncomfortable with the enthusiasm of people she didn't know.
Wen Jiaojiao looked at the women chatting animatedly there, feeling that this scene was very familiar, as if...as if she had experienced it all over again.
However, there were no such scenes in Wen Ruyue's memory in the original book. Her character was weird and paranoid, and she did not come out to meet these people at all. She only met Shen Zhishu.
Speaking of Shen Zhishu, Wen Jiaojiao looked somewhere in the yard, where he was talking to her eldest brother Wen Hong.
From time to time, Wen Jiaojiao looked away at her.
Because the Shen family had a good relationship with the Wen family in the past, although Xiao Yurong and the Wen family divorced, the Shen family treated Wen Jiaojiao well before. At that time, Wen Jiaojiao always followed Shen Zhishu. No matter what Shen Zhishu thought, the Shen family was
I very much hope that Wen Jiaojiao can join their Shen family.
Now that the Wen family is in peace, Wen Jiaojiao has also clearly rejected Shen Zhishu in the main hall, but the Shen family still wants to hold on to a glimmer of hope. After all, Wen Jiaojiao is still a little girl, and as long as they don't say goodbye, they have a chance.
So this time for Wen Jiaojiao's birthday, the Shen family also came over. Just now, Shen Zhishu's mother was still crowded among the women and wanted to talk to Wen Jiaojiao, but there were too many people and she couldn't get a word in.
Wen Jiaojiao was sitting next to Xiao Yurong when he saw Xiao Yurong looking forward.
"Hey, Song Chuan." Mei Shiniang called to the tall figure walking out of the main hall.
Wen Jiaojiao followed their gazes and saw an imposing man with a handsome face, tall and tall figure standing there, turning to look at them.
Wen Jiaojiao saw that grandma, aunt and others seemed to know this man very well, and asked curiously: "Grandma, who is this?"
Xiao Qingyu on the side said to her: "This is General Song Chuan Song. He used to fight side by side with your uncle and others on the battlefield. He was very brave. Later, when the border was settled, he went to guard the southwest border."
It became clear to Wen Jiaojiao that he was actually his uncle's comrade-in-arms.
