Chapter 131: Reason
Tong Mingyu, who returned to the backyard, saw the scene of her daughter eating fruit and reading a book, and no matter how she looked closely, she couldn't see even a trace of injury and discomfort.
"Didn't you say you sprained? How did it get better so quickly? Tong Mingyu sat opposite her daughter and waited for her answer.
"Hehe, mother, you eat apples, it's very sweet." Xiao Yao held up an apple and handed it to Tong Mingyu, she didn't want to lie and deceive her mother, and she couldn't tell the real reason, so she had to pretend to be stupid and sell cute.
If it weren't for someone saying that Yun Yichen was here, how could he not send the princess! blames himself for the disagreement with Yun Dashizi's aura, and he is really tired of seeing each other, so it is the wisest choice not to meet.
For example, today, for example, when he sent his grandfather last time, turning a blind eye and avoiding it is Xiao Yao's most correct attitude towards Yun Yichen.
"I don't know what you're thinking about in your little head all day." Because she was busy entertaining Princess Jing, a lot of things at home were left aside, and now seeing that her daughter was fine, Tong Mingyu told the maid to take good care of her, and hurried back to Graceland.
"My aunt is gone, it scares me to death, and it would be bad if my aunt found out that I was lying." Xiao Yuan came out of the inner room, patted his chest, and blamed his sister for turning an innocent, sincere and kind little girl into a bad boy who loves to lie.
"Count my sister owing you a favor, give, eat an apple."
"Don't bring this back to people's family favors." An apple wanted to send himself away, but Xiao Yuan resolutely refused to accept it.
"And what do you want?"
"I want a dress that's exactly like the one you gave the county lord."
The little fox's tail was finally revealed, but fortunately he had been prepared.
"You go to the needlework and get it, it should be ready."
"Really, when did you let them do it, sister, I love you so much." Xiao Yuan ignored Xiao Yao's resistance and kissed her on the face a few times.
"Go quickly, if you make trouble again, I'll regret it, it just so happens that my one is gone, or ......"
"Don't think about it, don't think about asking for it back if you give it to me." Xiao Yuan really let go of Xiao Yao and ran out with a "dada, dada".
After a while, Xiao Yuan returned.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yao asked.
"I'm here to tell my sister, you can choose the gift from the princess today, and give me the rest, I can't let my sister lose her skirt and lose her beads, who made me the most empathetic sister!" After Xiao Yuan said this, he grimaced and turned around and ran away.
Those beads? Grandmother may have put away the treasured place, and of course her old man does not want to covet those jewels and ornaments, but to keep that dignity. Of course, she will not be stingy with her two granddaughters, and will definitely make amends, only the younger sister naively thought that the jewelry and jade ornaments would belong to the sisters.
After lunch, the Qin family really sent Chunye to give each of the two granddaughters a jewelry box, which was full of gems, beads, and jade pendants, and the small ornaments sent by Princess Jing, small jade ornaments and some beads were also among them.
The old lady asked the slave maid to tell the two young ladies that the remaining part of the jewelry and glass in the gift sent by Princess Jing would be kept by her old man for the time being, and when the two young ladies grew up, they would be used to make jewelry and accessories. The things in this box are played with by the ladies, and there are bracelets that have been skewered inside, so the ladies can see if they like it or not. ”
Chunye carefully explained his intentions, and silently prayed in his heart that the two young ladies would not be angry, the old lady was actually a good intention, after all, the ones sent out in the palace were all treasures, if the young ladies didn't know that cherishing the enterprise was not a waste of good things in vain.
"Thank you grandmother on our behalf, please tell her that my sister and I like the jewelry and accessories that my grandmother has sent." The smile on Xiao Yao's face did not change, she looked very happy and accepted it happily, the things sent by her grandmother were only a lot more than Princess Jing's gifts, so what did she care! In Xiao Yao's eyes, there is no difference between whether the jewelry is given by the princess or given by her grandmother.
"We've earned it." One box turned into two boxes, Xiao Yuan was overjoyed, she didn't care about the origin of things, as long as someone was willing to send them, as long as it was a good thing, everything else could be ignored.
When the little sisters were admiring the jewels with joy, a grandmother sent by the Tong family was ushered in in the Grace Garden.
"Master, please go back to the house, my uncle is already waiting for you in the house."
"Are you saying my husband is also here?" Could it be that something is going on at home? Tong Mingyu didn't have the heart to do anything anymore, so he hurriedly changed his clothes, got into the carriage and went to his parents' house.
When I arrived at my mother's house and saw that my parents were well, and the house was calm, Tong Mingyu exhaled heavily and said, "Father and mother are so anxious about something, so I didn't tell the family before I came out." ”
The grandmother who went to pick up Tong Mingyu smiled apologetically at Miss, the old man specially instructed that he was only allowed to tell the young lady that his aunt was in Tong's house, and he was not allowed to mention a word else, he could only obey orders, Miss, don't blame the slave!
Tong Mingyu was in no mood to pay attention to her at this time, she had a hunch that her father must have come to talk about taking Ping'an to Suzhou today.
"Since the two of you have arrived, I will also talk straight to the point about the reason why I came to you today, that is, I want to take Ping An to Suzhou, you two will make a statement today."
"You also want to take Ping An to Suzhou!" At this time, Xiao Jingkang no longer had the elegant and calm appearance he usually had, his eyes were round, his voice was high, and he quickly stood up, as if he would lose his daughter if he sat on his father-in-law's chair for a while.
Xiao Jingkang looked at his father-in-law, saw that he didn't look like an old man, and then turned his head to look at his wife, Tong Mingyu only responded to him with a helpless smile, he had already refused, who knew that his father would be so persistent! It is estimated that my father-in-law is not at home, so I have the idea of peace again.
"Why, can't you? Yu'er, didn't you ever explain the reason to your uncle? Master Tong stared at his daughter dissatisfied, no wonder the Xiao family didn't react to his proposal at all, it turned out that his daughter's elbow didn't turn to his side at all.
"Father, you also know that when my father-in-law was at home, he couldn't mention this at all, and he didn't have to think about how his old man would react. My father-in-law went to the northwest too suddenly, and my daughter has been too busy these days to forget, don't be angry, my daughter really didn't mean to. "Who would have thought that you would still be thinking about this matter, and now I am afraid that you will be in a dilemma.
"Then I'll tell my uncle now, there is a famous doctor in Suzhou, although he is not as famous as the miracle doctor Lin You, but he is very good at treating internal injuries, so your mother-in-law and I want to take Ping An to Suzhou, do you think this reason is enough!"
"Thank you father-in-law and mother-in-law for your kindness, but ......" Xiao Jingkang is still reluctant to let his daughter leave his side, imagine how boring it will be without his daughter's company! But the father-in-law and mother-in-law are kind, and every word is for the sake of their daughter, Xiao Jingkang is a little speechless if he refuses.
"You bear to let peace continue to suffer, and you don't care that her chest is tight in the summer, or that she is cold in the winter. How many banquets have I attended over the years, and where is my granddaughter when other people's children are playing outside......"
"Father-in-law, don't say it, if the famous doctor in Suzhou can really cure Ping'an's illness, the son-in-law is willing to take his daughter to visit Suzhou in person."
"Why, is this because you can't trust your father-in-law and mother-in-law?" Who wants to take you there, Master Tong turned his head and pouted in disgust, and was glared at by Mrs. Tong, you are only allowed to worry about other people's daughters, and you are not allowed to worry about them? The old man is getting more and more excessive.
"How so! But you must allow us to go back and talk to our family. Tong Mingyu wanted to give her husband a look, but unfortunately the other party was not in a state at all, and there was no way, Tong Mingyu could only use the strategy of delaying the army.
"Yu'er, after all, you lived in Jiangnan when you were a child, and you know that it is completely different from Kyoto, don't you want to go out to see the world safely and see it for a long time? I heard that Ping An is very talented in painting, so I should go to Jiangnan to see it. Although she never painted a single grass or a flower for my grandfather, I can't care about these things with a child! ”
There was jealousy and dissatisfaction in these words, Tong Mingyu hurriedly explained for her daughter, "Ping An is thinking that he will wait for the painting to be better before sending it to you, who made her grandfather a well-informed Shangshu master, and her uncle is a talented man who reads poetry and books!" ”
"Really?" Mr. Tong gladly accepted his daughter's explanation, and he also thought that with the level of his old in-laws, he would be able to understand his granddaughter's works before the age of ten.
"Of course my daughter won't lie to you."
"Where did I just go, by the way, if Ping An wants to paint a work with a sense of meaning, how can he do it if he doesn't go to Jiangnan to see what he can do, what do you say!" Listen, I made this decision for the sake of peace and for the sake of your Xiao family.
Mrs. Tong felt that her husband had really put in a lot of hard work to kidnap his granddaughter, every sentence, every word, as long as it was his father and mother, how could he not be moved. It seems that there should be no problem here for the granddaughter, and now we have to think about how to take Jiabao away if the daughter-in-law is willing.
It's not that Mrs. Tong doesn't give up, it's that Master Tong and Second Master Tong are too persistent, so they decided that they were safe. Mrs. Tong has been persuaded several times openly and secretly, but the father and son can't listen to it at all, if they hadn't stopped themselves, I'm afraid the two of them would have gone to Xiao's house to propose marriage.
Master Tong's last words moved Xiao Jingkang and his wife, maybe they should really let their daughter go out for a walk. The Xiao family is not pedantic, otherwise Xiao Jingyan would not be allowed to marry in his twenties.
"Go back and discuss with your family, and don't forget to ask Ping'an and Mama Ruan's opinions." Seeing that the fire was almost over, Master Tong began to pick people up.
"Okay, we'll get back to you as soon as possible." Xiao Jingkang said solemnly.
Master Tong raised his eyebrows at his wife and showed a smug smile, and then walked leisurely to the study.
