After the brother and sister whispered for a while, Xuan Bao turned to Awang with a smile on his lips.
"Are you and my second brother inseparable on weekdays?"
"Miss Qi, the little personal attendant will naturally follow the second young master."
"I'll give this to you." Xuan Bao took out the Zhang Ling Talisman from his arms and handed it over.
"Me too." Awang was a little surprised.
This morning, Xiao Kexiao got up and showed off to Awang, saying how effective the peace amulet given by Xuan Bao was.
Since the second young master must value good things, Awang quickly accepted them after thanking him.
"Miss Seventh, someone from Yongchang Prince's Palace is here. The princess wants you to come over." Suddenly the maid outside reported.
"Second brother, come with me to see my mother." Xuan Bao invited.
Xiao Kexiao was about to agree but suddenly remembered something. He hesitated and finally shook his head.
Xuan Bao asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Are you in trouble?"
"I guess the Yongchang Palace has sent something again. Whenever someone comes over there, Mingzhu will definitely go to her mother's place." Xiao Kexiao touched Xuanbao's head, "I won't go there with you, lest she..."
"
Xuan Bao didn't know much about it, but he also felt that what the second brother said made sense. The sixth sister didn't want to see him, so it was difficult for him to be caught in the middle.
In the Qinse courtyard, Princess Rouping looked at the things that people were moving in and couldn't help but wonder: "Aunt Ying, it shouldn't be time to give out the holiday gifts yet."
"There have been no festivals or special days recently." Aunt Ying was also very confused. "Princess, there are a lot of things sent by the palace today."
"Mother." Xiao Mingzhu walked in the door with a smile, "Grandma has sent something."
Princess Rouping smiled and said, "You are the only one who is smart enough to get here so quickly."
"Oh, I live in the Qinse Courtyard, so of course I know about such a big movement."
Xiao Mingzhu was in a very good mood when she looked at the things piled up in the courtyard. Princess Rouping would give her whatever she wanted from the palace. It seemed that today was no exception. She must have gained a lot.
"What?"
When Xuan Bao came to the door and crossed the threshold with her short legs, Xiao Mingzhu shouted loudly in surprise before she could say "Mother".
"Mingzhu." Princess Rouping looked at Xiao Mingzhu who suddenly stood up with a ferocious expression and frowned in displeasure.
Realizing that she had lost her composure, Xiao Mingzhu instantly restrained her inner anger and turned around with a look of grievance.
Xiao Mingzhu's expression changed so quickly that Princess Rouping thought she was dazzled just now. She was just about to say a few words of relief when she looked up and saw Xuan Bao coming.
"Mother."
"Xuanbao is here." Princess Rouping couldn't help but stand up when she saw the little baby, and went to pick her up.
After eating well and sleeping well these days, Xuan Bao seemed to be in much better spirits, but the little person still looked younger than her actual age. Princess Rouping could not help but hold her as if she were three or four years old.
Xiao Mingzhu's heart sank when she saw it, but she still walked forward calmly: "My sister is here."
"Sister." Xuan Bao was held by Princess Rouping and looked curiously, "Are all these things sent by grandma?"
Princess Rouping walked to the door with Xuan Bao in her arms and stood on the steps. Xiao Mingzhu followed her out.
"Seventh Miss, the six boxes on the left are things given to you by the Yongchang Palace." Aunt Ying pointed and said, "The boxes in the middle are for the young masters and Miss Sixth. The two boxes on the right are for
The princess’s.”
"Why did grandma give me so much?"
Princess Rouping put down the Xuanbao: "Go and see for yourself. I don't know what good things your grandmother has given you."
"Xuanbao, grandma is so kind to you." Xiao Mingzhu looked at the pile of boxes with envy and said in a sour tone, "She has never given so many things to me or my brothers."
The nun who was ordered to come by Yongchang Palace smiled and said: "Miss Qi, this is not just a birthday gift given to you by the old princess and the five masters."
Half-turning around, Xuan Bao retorted to Xiao Mingzhu: "These are my birthday gifts. Didn't my sister receive gifts from her grandmother and uncle during her birthdays in previous years?"
"Is it a birthday gift?" Xiao Mingzhu looked embarrassed.
Thinking about it, Xiao Mingzhu felt very unhappy. Her grandmother would give her birthday gifts, but her uncles had never given birthday gifts to the younger generations. This shows that Xuan Bao's status in their minds, let alone their own, was
Even my eldest brother and the others can't compare.
Xuan Bao was too lazy to pay attention to Xiao Mingzhu. She stepped forward and opened a box at random. She just glanced at it and noticed someone was crowding around her. She released her hands and the lid of the box made a loud noise.
Xiao Mingzhu, who squeezed forward to see what goodies were inside, was startled.
"Mother, are my things going to be moved back to Lingyun Garden?" Xuan Bao pretended not to notice and turned to Princess Rouping with a smile.
Princess Rouping smiled and said: "That's natural, take it back."
"Thank you, mother." After saying this, Xuan Bao turned to the servants from Yongchang Palace who had brought the things and told him, "Please tell grandma that I will come to say thank you another day."
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xiao Mingzhu's face looking ugly. Xuanbao didn't want to have too many entanglements with her to avoid embarrassing her mother, so she said a few words to Princess Rouping and then returned to her small courtyard with a few boxes of things.
"Mother." Xiao Mingzhu looked gloomy and sat next to Princess Rouping, "How can I make a mysterious treasure to recognize my sister?"
"Did Xuan Bao not recognize you as my sister?" Princess Rouping blurted out, "She keeps calling you."
Hearing this, Xiao Mingzhu was speechless, and then she quickly explained: "I mean, how can I make Xuan Bao so that he can like me?"
Hearing this, Princess Rouping also sighed. Although Xuanbao didn't say it, she made no secret of her displeasure with Xiao Mingzhu. Just like her brothers, they also displease the little baby and said
It seems that the siblings have exactly the same temperament.
"Mingzhu, you are a sensible person." Princess Rouping held Xiao Mingzhu's hand and said, "Xuanbao has suffered a lot, so she doesn't trust others easily. As long as you give sincerely, she will always like you."
"Well, I listen to my mother and I will always be good to Xuan Bao." Xiao Mingzhu said softly.
Seeing the docile appearance of her adopted daughter, Princess Rouping nodded repeatedly: "You can take my two boxes of things if you like them."
"Thank you, mother." Xiao Mingzhu smiled.
Seeing Xiao Mingzhu smiling and leaving with three boxes of things, Grandma Ying, who was waiting in front of Princess Rouping, hesitated to speak.
Princess Rouping noticed: "Just say what you want to say."
"Sixth Miss is really good-natured. She took all the things the old princess gave you without any hesitation. She didn't even look at what was inside and whether it was suitable for her."
After hearing the meaning of Aunt Ying's words, Princess Rouping smiled and said: "Forget it, just take it if she likes it. Anyway, it's just some jewelry, ornaments and the like."
