Seeing this, Mrs. Xi had a look of surprise on her face, and said with some uncertainty: "Is this the 'A Tong' you have been playing with all day long? Why, don't you know her identity? "
When she was in the south, Xi Menghan often made friends with different identities. However, because she had always been very measured and careful, she didn't care too much. But she didn't expect that Xi Menghan didn't even know the identity of the other party... …
"A Tong? What is her identity?" Xi Menghan was stunned, but at this time she also felt that something was wrong. Since her mother said so, it means that the identity of her little friend is probably not simple. "I thought Atong had something to hide, so I never asked him about it. Besides, it wouldn't affect our relationship. We are comrades who have been stabbed together!"
Mrs. Xi was helpless, her daughter was like this, so she said: "That friend of yours has a great background! She is..."
Just as Mrs. Xi was about to say something, a message from the maid came outside the door, saying that Xia Luotong and Si Hanyan had arrived.
Mrs. Xi glanced at her daughter helplessly, then hurriedly asked the maid to bring the person in, and she also stood up to greet her.
She knew that one of the people who came today was Si Hanyan from the Queen Mother's family. She had met them at the banquet before, so she knew him. Then the person who entered the room with him was Xia Luotong, Princess An, who was also a fool of her own family. The best friend my daughter talks about all day is "A Tong".
However, even though she had been prepared in her heart, Mrs. Xi was still stunned by Xia Luotong's appearance. She did not expect that Princess An, who was rumored to be in all kinds of unfavorable situations, would have such an outstanding appearance.
After being stunned for a moment, Mrs. Xi quickly came to her senses, stepped forward with a friendly tone and a smile, ready to salute.
"I've seen An Qin..."
"Mrs. Xi doesn't have to be like this. I feel sorry for Atong." Xia Luotong quickly took two steps forward to support Mrs. Xi and stopped her salute. "I am Menghan's friend, and today I am Menghan's friend." When I come to your house to play as my identity, you can just call me A Tong."
Xia Luotong had a smile on her face and a bit of playfulness in her eyes, which made Mrs. Xi immediately feel close to her and made a good impression on this girl. As for the rumors outside, she always only believed what she saw with her own eyes.
She knew that there were too many twists and turns behind these things, so she rarely paid attention to the rumors outside. She only listened to the songs in general, but didn't take them seriously.
"Okay, then I'll be brave and call you A Tong." The smile on Mrs. Xi's face became a little deeper.
According to the hierarchy, Xia Luotong's status as the princess is above that of General Dingnan's wife, so according to regulations, when Mrs. Xi meets Xia Luotong, she must salute first, and then Xia Luotong returns the favor.
Although Mrs. Xi is much older than Xia Luotong, the etiquette is like this. It doesn't matter whether it is embarrassing or not, everyone is like this. But if they are close and don't mind each other, there is no need to be too deliberate and just do whatever you like. yes.
However, at the age of ten, with such a life experience, he was neither arrogant nor impetuous and was very calm, which instantly won the favor of Mrs. Xi.
"Atong, please give my regards to Mrs. Xi." Xia Luotong said hello with a smile.
In fact, not only Mrs. Xi, but also Xia Luotong is also very good at her senses, otherwise she would not be so easy to talk to.
Mrs. Xi's intention to salute when she came up first showed that she had not been affected by rumors and rumors from the outside world, which was an extremely rare thing.
There was no strange color in his eyes, only the politeness that should be expected when meeting someone for the first time. This is the second point.
That's why Xia Luotong showed such closeness, and Si Hanyan on the side also smiled and said hello, and the atmosphere immediately became much more harmonious.
It wasn't until the three of them sat down that Xi Menghan, who was still standing, came back to his senses. His almond-shaped eyes widened in surprise and he stared at Xia Luotong.
"Atong, who are you?!" Xi Menghan then looked at his mother, "Mom, what did you call her just now?!"
Just now, Mrs. Xi's salute was interrupted by Xia Luotong in the middle of her salute. She didn't even finish her greeting, but Xi Menghan could see the salute clearly. How could she not be surprised by this? !
Even though she doesn't like the red tape, she is very clear about the rules of rank etiquette. She only needs to be the first to salute when facing someone of higher rank than herself.
However, her mother is the dignified wife of General Dingnan, a first-grade imperial concubine!
If she can be the first to salute, isn't that a level of...
Xi Menghan felt that his mind was a little lost, and his eyes looking at Xia Luotong were full of confusion. For the first time, he felt strong curiosity about his good friend.
Seeing Xi Menghan's dazed look made Mrs. Xi helpless for a while. Si Hanyan on the side couldn't help laughing. Her goal today had been achieved, which was to let Xi Menghan do it with her. A companion! She can't be the only one frightened!
Xia Luotong also had a smile on her face. She thought Xi Menghan looked really cute and cute, without her usual quirky energy.
Seeing Xi Menghan anxiously scratching her head and asking questions repeatedly, Mrs. Xi finally spoke up to answer her questions.
"You! A'Tong is Princess An, Xia Luotong, the eldest daughter of the Xia family!" Mrs. Xi said.
In fact, it was a coincidence that General Xi would recognize Xia Luotong in the main hall. One time before, Xi Menghan and Xia Luotong were shopping, and they happened to be seen by General Xi who was passing by. That day, he knew that his daughter was looking for a new friend. "Atong" went.
"What?! Are you Princess An Xia Luotong?!" Xi Menghan immediately exclaimed.
She never thought that her good sister would be the "famous in the capital" Princess An Xia Luotong!
Looking at Xia Luotong in disbelief, and seeing her smiling and nodding, Xi Menghan had to accept this fact, even though she was still a little dizzy.
However, she still subconsciously said: "Fortunately, I didn't say anything bad about you before!"
Even Mrs. Xi smiled helplessly at this time, her daughter was really frightened!
"A Tong! It's so hard for you to hide this from me!" Xi Menghan shook his head, rushed over and looked at Xia Luotong pitifully, like an abandoned little beast.
"You have heard a lot of rumors about my identity. It was inconvenient to tell you at first, but later I thought it was unnecessary. In fact, if you ask, I will tell you. Even if you don't ask, I will tell you when the opportunity comes. I'll let you know when the time is right, like now." Xia Luotong touched Xi Menghan's head in a funny way, as if touching a pet, with tenderness in his eyes.
She was grateful to Xi Menghan. This friend gave her great tolerance and respect. If not, who could insist on sharing their hearts and souls with an unknown person like her?
