Aunt Ying walked in with Xiao and saw Xuan Bao leaning on a chair, looking drowsy.
"If Miss Seven is tired, she should go back to the bed and rest. What if she catches a cold? How do you serve me? Do you want to be beaten?"
Xuan Bao quickly explained to the maids: "Aunt Ying, I didn't fall asleep, I just felt a little bored sitting there."
"That's right, you have to be careful." After saying this, Aunt Ying turned around and said, "Miss Qi, please change your clothes and tidy up. The princess ordered me to invite you to Qinse Courtyard."
"Mom asked me to go, what's the matter?"
"The eldest son is in Qinse Courtyard. The princess wants you brothers and sisters to meet."
"Oh." Xuan Bao sat up lazily.
Dongxue hurriedly called Chunhua and Xiayu, and the three of them hurriedly helped Xuanbao wash up, while Qiuyue was busy choosing suitable clothes for her.
To be honest, Xuan Bao had little expectations for this big brother at first.
In the eyes of everyone, the eldest son Xiao Kezhong is simply the embodiment of perfection. He is good at reading and martial arts. The most important thing is that he has a good family background and is good-looking. He is one of the four young masters in the capital. He is also the favorite of countless ladies and ladies.
Momo.
However, no matter how outstanding Xiao Kezhong is, he doesn't want to see her based on Xiao Mingzhu's one-sided words since he has never met her in person. Xuanbao is a little kid, but she also has the temper of a little kid.
Even if Xiao Kezhong wanted to see Xuan Bao, she didn't want to see him. What's more, it was not difficult to deduce what her mother meant from Grandma Ying's flashing words.
"I'm sleepy." Xuan Bao yawned, "Aunt Ying, I'll take a nap and see you another day."
"Xia Yu, quickly twist a towel and wipe Miss Qi's face to wake herself up."
Seeing Xuan Bao's unwillingness, Aunt Ying sighed softly, then squeezed towards her and lowered her voice: "Miss Qi, I know that you have been wronged, and the princess also knows."
In the past few days, Xuan Bao and Princess Rouping had been having troubles, and Grandma Ying had seen them all.
"It's not for myself, I'm grievances for my second brother and my fifth uncle." Xuan Bao pouted, "If the fourth brother is wrong, it's wrong, and there is the sixth sister, isn't it right? Mother is unfair."
Children's words also spoke to Grandma Ying's heart. In the past few days, she had also advised Princess Rouping.
"Miss Qi, being a parent means that the palms of your hands are meat and the back of your hands is also meat. It is not easy for the princess."
Xuan Bao lowered her little head, and after a moment she raised a smile: "I know my mother also has her own difficulties."
"That's right, you two should move quickly, the princess is waiting for Miss Seven." Aunt Ying turned around and urged the little maids.
"Mother Ying, why did mother want me to see him?"
"The eldest son will definitely be different after seeing you. The seventh lady is so cute, even the servants like her, not to mention that you are brothers and sisters whose blood is thicker than water."
"Brothers and sisters?" Xuan Bao remembered his fourth brother Xiao Keyi saying dejectedly, "They and the sixth sister are real brothers and sisters."
Seeing the little baby's sad expression, Grandma Ying felt very distressed, but there was nothing she could do. She was here under orders, so she could only continue to persuade.
"Seventh Miss, the Marquis has been away fighting all year round. He is like an elder brother and a father. As long as the eldest son changes his mind, the other young masters, including the Sixth Miss, will listen to him."
Xuan Bao thought to himself, forget it, as long as my mother is happy, it is just a trip anyway.
Princess Rouping has good intentions, but Xuanbao is very sensible. Although the eldest brother and the other brothers did not deliberately embarrass themselves like the fourth brother, if they really regarded her as their sister, they would not avoid her again and again.
not see.
Xuan Bao is young and not stupid. Besides, she has seen a lot of people and sophistication. She can still see what they are thinking.
"Miss Seven, let's go."
Finally, the maids worked hard for Xuan Bao. Aunt Ying took her little hand and took her to see Qin Seyuan.
"Zhong'er, have you been busy lately?" Princess Rouping said with a little guilt in her tone. She had been focusing on Xuan Bao recently and felt she had neglected her son.
"It's not very busy." Xiao Kezhong took a sip from the teacup handed to him by the maid, "Mom, she has been very busy recently."
Princess Rouping also took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "I'm not busy."
"When a mother takes care of others, she should also take care of herself. Your health is important." Xiao Ke Zhongyi pointed out.
"Speaking of the bones of the body, they have gotten much better recently." Princess Rouping looked at her eldest son's face that was similar to her husband Xiao Yuan and sighed, "If your father knew about it, he would definitely be happy."
Xiao Kezhong raised his eyebrows slightly. He was a smart man, so he naturally understood that his mother was not only talking about her good health, but also about the return of Xuan Bao.
What several younger siblings said to him in private flashed through his mind, and Xiao Kezhong weighed it in his mind.
The fifth brother Xiao Keli and the sixth sister Xiao Mingzhu did not express their suspicions about Xuan Bao, but the fourth brother Xiao Keyi said bluntly that she was not their sister at all. The second brother Xiao Kexiao smiled meaningfully and said that he
Make your own judgment.
Among the brothers, only he and the youngest Xiao Keren have never seen the seventh sister. When he saw Grandma Ying sneaking out just now, Xiao Kezhong guessed that her mother must have ordered her to bring Xuan Bao.
Originally Xiao Kezhong wanted to avoid it, but now he changed his mind after hearing his mother's words. The little doll made the Hou family uneasy, and she was different in everyone's eyes. He wanted to get a glimpse of Lushan's true face.
Already.
The mother and son were chatting, and Princess Rouping's eyes fell outside the door from time to time. In the past few days, she had also seen the stubbornness in Xuanbao's bones. Because of that day, she had not been to Qinse Courtyard for a few days.
I don’t know if Aunt Ying can bring her here.
Seeing this, Xiao Kezhong was even more displeased with Xuan Bao. He was so arrogant that his mother was so worried and waiting.
With a casual glance, Xiao Kezhong saw Xuan Bao walking over, being led by Grandma Ying.
Speaking of which, Xia Yu and the others are quite skillful. Knowing that Xuan Bao was going to meet the eldest son, they went out of their way to dress her up.
Xuan Bao wears a double bun with a pearl butterfly hairpin, and two bright yellow ribbons dancing in the wind to complement the bright yellow ruqi she is wearing.
The hem, collar and cuffs of the clothes are decorated with small colorful butterflies carefully embroidered by the embroiderer, dancing gracefully as the little doll moves.
Looking at it from a distance, it seems that the little baby is very small. The six-year-old Xiao Mingzhu is much taller than her. She does not look like a five-year-old. The suspicions of her younger siblings are reasonable.
Xuan Bao came closer, and Xiao Kezhong looked at her. She looked like a little baby's grandmother, with a soft and cute face. Her eyes?
Xiao Kezhong was stunned. Xuanbao's eyes were beautiful, as clean and transparent as the blue sky, and his aura was fully displayed as he looked around.
In an instant, when Xiao Mingzhu's aggrieved little face appeared in his mind, Xiao Kezhong's mind changed. This little baby was pretty good-looking, but she was still the best sixth sister.
