This is strange, Xiao Kezhong looked suspicious. He really suspected that Xiao Mingzhu was faking it, but seeing her crying so hard that her eyes were red, it didn't look like she was faking it.
In the Qinse Courtyard, Princess Rouping frowned after hearing Aunt Ying's report: "What the hell is she doing again?"
"My servant didn't take it seriously at first, but looking at the anxious look on Lan'er's little maid, it doesn't look like she's fake."
"Okay, let's find a doctor to have a look." Princess Rouping thought about it and added, "You should go and have a look, lest Ke Zhong and the others come to Qin Se Court again and cause trouble."
"
"Yes, this slave knows."
Princess Rouping's current treatment of Xiao Mingzhu is just a superficial, unfamiliar, ungrateful white-eyed wolf. If Xuan Bao hadn't repeatedly told her to be patient, she would have exposed her true colors long ago.
They invited Doctor Qi, who often treated everyone in the Hou Mansion, and Grandma Ying personally took him to Yicai Garden. When they arrived, the five brothers of the Xiao family had already gathered in front of Xiao Mingzhu's bed.
Dr. Qi's diagnosis showed that Xiao Mingzhu was completely fine, and the pain she said was completely baseless. The old doctor looked unhappy but said it tactfully. He was not good at medical skills, so he asked someone else to do it.
Grandma Ying gave Doctor Qi the medical fee with a smile on her face, then turned around and said with a dark face: "I will report the truth to the princess when I get back."
Xiao Mingzhu felt aggrieved in her heart and felt pain in her body. She fainted from anger for a while.
Yicai Garden is full of chaos, but Lingyun Garden is peaceful.
Xuan Bao saw the sun well, so he specially ordered a couch and a small coffee table to be brought in and placed in the courtyard.
The little baby was lying in a large shape and basking in the sun. He also said that the more sunshine he had, the faster he would grow taller. This made the four maids burst into laughter.
When Xiao Keren sneaked in, he happened to see Xia Yu stuffing the peeled grapes into Xuan Bao's mouth.
"You're enjoying it." Xiao Keren sat down on the couch, grabbed a grape and threw it directly into his mouth.
Xuan Bao was about to speak when he heard footsteps again and saw Xiao Kexiao coming too.
"Hey——, Third Brother, why are you here again? It's broad daylight, didn't I ask you to come less often?"
"Second brother can come, why can't I come?"
Xiao Kexiao walked to the couch and sat down too. Xuanbao, who was lying down, had to shrink his legs and sit up: "Did you two make an appointment?"
"Who made an appointment with him?" They both said in unison and gave each other disdainful looks.
Xuan Bao sat hugging his knees with his little face on his knees and smiled: "I guess you two came from Yicai Garden, right?"
The two brothers looked at each other, their eyes communicating in mid-air, and they could understand each other's meaning without speaking.
"Is it your fault?" Xiao Kexiao didn't ask but affirmed.
Xiao Keren leaned down and looked at Xuan Bao: "It can be seen from your expression that the second brother is right."
"Inflict a little punishment." Xuan Bao raised one hand and extended his little finger, "It's just a small punishment."
Looking at Xiao Mingzhu's appearance and the so-called "little" displayed by Xuan Bao's little finger are really not the same thing, Xiao Kexiao and Xiao Keren exchanged glances. They both had the same idea, that is, don't offend the seventh sister if you offend anyone.
"Xuan Bao, has she offended you again?" Xiao Keren asked casually.
"It's not that she offended me, it's just that I couldn't stand her torturing the little maid around her. I punished her with small punishments and severe punishments, just to return the pain to her." Xuan Bao said calmly.
Xiao Kexiao gave a thumbs up: "Well done, it turns out she brought it upon herself. If I had known about it, I wouldn't have visited her."
"You still have to work hard to save face." Xiao Keren's mind was spinning very fast, "Second brother, she has to rest for a few days this time. At least there is one less person to inform the second room. You can take advantage of the opportunity."
"Third brother thinks the same as me. Second brother, what my mother means is that you take over her dowry shop first. If you don't understand anything, you can ask third uncle." Xuan Bao reminded, "I think today is a good day.
.”
Xiao Keren took over the words: "Yes, it is better to choose a day than to hit it. Since mother has this intention, second brother, if you go this time, you will definitely be able to make your dreams come true."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Xiao Kexiao came and went in a hurry.
"The third brother didn't come here specifically to grab grapes from me, right?" Xuan Bao quickly grabbed the last few grapes in the flower bowl without peeling them, and stuffed them all into her mouth.
Seeing Xuan Bao's little mouth bulging with grapes, looking like a little hamster, Xiao Keren couldn't help but smile.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yu, who was waiting around, pulled Chun Hong, Dong Xue pulled Qiu Yue, and the four maids all retreated two feet away.
"What did you find?" Xiao Keren could only give some hints to Xuan Bao's confused look, "Xiao Mingzhu, what did you find?"
"Why do third brothers ask this?"
"I didn't hear her mention you today, so you went there secretly and went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Tell me, what did you find?"
Xuan Bao asked, "Can't I not discover anything?"
"Theoretically it's possible, but it's unlikely." Xiao Keren squeezed to Xuan Bao's side, "I'm not a simple-minded second brother, please tell me quickly."
"I want to tell my second brother that you said he is simple-minded."
"His brain is quite good when it comes to calculations, but he still lacks some skills in guessing people's hearts. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that he has not interacted with many people in the past ten years."
"This is quite true." Xuan Bao admired Xiao Keren more and more, "Third brother, instead of wasting your time with me, you should pay attention to another person."
"who?"
"Xiao Kezhong."
Xuan Bao succeeded in changing the topic, and Xiao Keren was successfully led astray.
The veteran Taoist master in the space sighed long and hard. The third child of the Xiao family looked smart, but he was far behind compared to the little stupid boy. However, his little apprentice was not comparable to others.
Xuan Bao lowered his head to hide his almost uncontrollable smile. The veteran Taoist master was really confused, but he said he disliked it, but in his heart he was still proud of himself.
Xiao Keren hesitated and asked, "Is it because the eldest brother is the closest to Xiao Mingzhu?"
"Yes and no."
"That's interesting."
"It's not interesting. I think if you can help him open his eyes to see people, many things will be less troublesome."
"You are answering the 'yes' you just said, so what is the 'no'?"
Xuan Bao pondered for a moment and then said: "I should say feeling, I always feel that eldest brother is a bit strange."
Hearing this, Xiao Keren was horrified: "Is it possible that the eldest brother was also tricked and used some shameful means?"
Shaking his head, Xuan Bao said bluntly: "Brother, there is nothing wrong, and I don't see anything. I just feel something is wrong in my heart. It's very awkward."
"Okay, then I'll keep an eye on the elder brother." Xiao Keren thought about it and warned, "Xuanbao, if you find anything, remember to tell the third brother."
