The third uncle's stack of banknotes was too much for even my mother to say, but she obviously still had many, many more. From this, it seemed that she was a rich person, or a very rich person. Xuanbao's little head turned around and showed a silly smile.
.
"Take it, third uncle doesn't know what you like. Buy whatever you like. If it's not enough, just tell me and uncle will buy it for you." Li Shen said proudly.
Xuan Bao pushed back the banknote handed over by Li Shen: "Third uncle, my mother is right, I am just a baby. I don't need to buy anything to eat and wear. Besides, I have the banknote."
"Who thinks there's too much money? Collect it quickly." Li Shen stuffed it into Xuan Bao's arms, "My third uncle gave it to you. If you don't accept it, you're looking down on me."
"Thank you, third uncle." Xuan Bao no longer refused and said his thanks obediently.
Then other people also said that although they had not prepared in advance, the gifts given to Xuan Bao were rare and good things, and the little doll thanked him repeatedly.
Xiao Mingzhu almost burst into tears. She remembered that when she first came to Yongchang Palace, everyone also gave her a greeting gift, but it was just some jewelry and ornaments, not as good as one-tenth of what Xuan Bao received.
What's more important is not only that the gifts given to Xuan Bao by everyone in the palace are valuable, but also because Xiao Mingzhu can feel that she has been completely ignored.
Before, Xiao Mingzhu thought she was being obedient to please her uncles, but it wasn't until Xuan Bao appeared that she realized she was wrong. The Li family didn't regard her as their granddaughter at all.
Xiao Keyi's expression was gloomy. He felt in his heart that Mingzhu was wronged because of Xuan Bao. He looked at her smiling so much.
When they returned, in addition to the carriages brought by Xiao Keyi and Xiao Mingzhu, there were two more carriages, which were filled with gifts for Xuan Bao.
After getting on the carriage, Xiao Mingzhu cried. Xiao Keyi sat beside her to comfort her, but the more she thought about it, the more sad she became.
"Mingzhu, don't worry, fourth brother will avenge you."
"Fourth brother, I'm not angry with Xuan Bao."
"As soon as she came back, she couldn't wait to go to Yongchang Prince's Palace to beg for something. She was really short-sighted." Xiao Keyi said angrily, "She didn't tell my mother, but now even my grandmother and uncles are also bewitched by her."
"Fourth brother, don't embarrass Xuan Bao."
"I know this well, so don't worry about it."
Hearing this, Xiao Mingzhu lowered her head and raised the corners of her mouth. The fourth brother was determined to stand up for her. She couldn't wait to see Xuan Bao deflated.
In the other carriage, Xuan Bao was held in his mother's arms, and the mother and daughter were whispering.
"Xuanbao, tell me honestly, what happened in the garden? Did you really get rid of the evil spirit?"
"Mother, Xuan Bao will not lie to you, what I say must be true."
"I just want to know the part you're not talking about."
"That won't work. I won't tell you. I just can't tell you." Xuan Bao shook his little head.
Princess Rouping held Xuanbao's little hand worriedly: "If you don't tell me, my mother will be very worried."
Looking up at his mother, Xuan Bao stretched out his little hand and stroked Princess Rouping's brows: "Don't frown, don't worry, I promise you will be fine at any time."
"You really don't want to tell mother?"
"There's nothing to say." Xuan Bao hugged Princess Rouping's neck, "Mother, don't worry."
Princess Rouping hugged Xuan Bao tightly and felt the little baby nuzzling in her arms, acting coquettishly like a kitten. Her heart was so warm that she couldn't help but smile.
The carriage entered directly from the back door of the Hou Mansion. Princess Rouping got out of the car holding Xuan Bao and accidentally turned around to see Xiao Mingzhu's envious eyes.
Feeling soft in her heart, she had been neglecting her adopted daughter recently. Princess Rouping turned around and handed the Xuan Bao to Grandma Ying to hold. She walked over and knelt down to hug Xiao Mingzhu.
When others were not paying attention, Xiao Mingzhu gave Xuan Bao a demonstrative look, and the little boy smiled heartlessly in return.
The smile that fell in Xiao Mingzhu's eyes turned into a demonstration. When she realized that her mother was staring at her, her eyes turned red and she hugged her.
In Xuan Bao's heart, her mother is everyone's mother. She can like herself, and she can also like other brothers and sisters.
The little baby yawned: "Mom, I'm tired."
"I'll take you back to Lingyun Garden." Princess Rouping immediately released her hands holding Xiao Mingzhu and stood up.
Xuan Bao shook his little head lightly: "You can send sister back to Yicai Garden, and Aunt Ying can send me back."
Xiao Keyi stepped forward and said: "My mother has been gone for so many days, and Mingzhu has been talking about her for so many days. Please take the time to spend more time with her."
Princess Rouping heard this and thought about it. Speaking of it, it was the first time since Xiao Mingzhu entered the mansion that she had been separated from her for so long.
"You move all the items on the carriage to Miss Seventh Lingyun Court, be careful, they are all valuable items." Princess Rouping ordered the servants in the mansion.
After all, whether you are going back to Yicai Garden or Lingyun Garden, you are always going back to Qinse Garden. Aunt Ying walked in front holding Xuan Bao with a tired look on her face. Princess Rouping followed them with Xiao Mingzhu in hand. Xiao Keyi went back alone.
I went to my yard to pack my things and went back to the academy.
Accidentally seeing Xiao Mingzhu's face full of pride, Xuan Bao rubbed his eyes and muttered not knowing what she was so proud of.
Aunt Ying returned Xuan Bao to Lingyun Garden, and Dong Xue and Qiu Yue came to greet her.
He directly carried Xuan Bao into the bedroom, and after a few words of instruction, Grandma Ying turned around and left.
"Miss Qi, you must be hungry." Dongxue said with concern, "Xia Yu said you didn't have a meal and you went out with the princess."
"I'm full. I'm having dinner at my grandma's house." Xuan Bao patted his belly and smiled, "I'm full."
Qiuyue has brought a basin of hot water: "Let's wash up and change clothes first."
"I need to change clothes again." Xuan Bao looked down at the clothes he had just changed in the morning.
Dongxue took out her clothes and said, "I need to change my clothes when I come back from going out."
"Oh, let's change clothes." Xuan Bao let the two maids toss him.
Thinking that now I have enough to eat, a lot of clothes, my mother, my grandmother and my uncle. By the way, I haven’t met my grandfather today, so I don’t know what he looks like?
Dongxue accidentally threw off Xuan Bao's clothes, and the banknotes hidden inside fell to the ground.
"Oh my god——!" Qiuyue and Dongxue were stunned to see so many banknotes.
"Oh, my third uncle gave me a greeting gift, but I forgot to give it to my mother just now." Xuan Bao didn't take it seriously, "Pick it up."
The two maids knelt down and carefully picked up the coins while counting them. Xuan Bao originally wanted to help, but seeing how happy they were after picking up the coins, he decided to just watch.
Qiuyue reported: "Seventh lady, ten pieces of one thousand taels, twenty pieces of five hundred taels, a total of 20,000 taels of silver."
"Third uncle is too generous." Dongxue's hands holding the banknote couldn't help but tremble. She had less than two taels of silver per month, and this banknote was something she would never see again in her lifetime.
"Well, these are the things my third uncle bought for me." Xuan Bao said casually, "Behind them are two cartloads of things from my grandmother and other uncles and aunts."
