"Miss, Miss, Mr. Xiao is leaving!" Chun Mian's voice was loud, she was out of breath when she spoke, and she was obviously a little anxious.
Lin Qingwan frowned and turned her head, looking at the other party's hurried appearance, she couldn't help but said: "What is Mr. Xiao?"
"That's it, the prince's friend! I heard that several carriages suddenly arrived from the Xiao family just now, with all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry on them. They said they came to thank the prince and princess."
"Now Mr. Xiao is outside the door, and he asked to see the young lady by name. He said he wanted to see the legendary Princess Zhan... so I hurried back."
Mr. Xiao?
That should be Xiao Yuming's father, right?
No, why did Xiao Yuming's father insist on seeing him? It seems like he didn't do anything.
While she was deep in thought, Chun Mian had already started looking for clothes in the closet, "Master Xiao is quite famous in the capital, and he has always been upright and honest. He never asks to see anyone. Miss, you are the first one."
"So we have to dress up nicely today to leave a good impression on each other."
Chun Mian took out a pink shirt from the closet and put it on Lin Qingwan.
Lin Qingwan came to her senses and quickly stepped back, "This dress is a little too pink."
"But it matches your temperament very well."
"Chun Mian, I am married now and am someone else's wife. What's more, the person we are going to marry today is a minister of the court, not some other royal wife, so I should dress more formally."
Obviously Lin Qingwan has also become interested in the legendary Master Xiao. If it were other people, she would definitely not say these words.
She slowly walked towards the closet, picked through it for a while, and finally took out a lake blue shirt, "This one, this one looks very solemn and makes me more mature."
"What about the hair?"
"You don't need to comb your hair too complicatedly, just keep it simple. Just insert a few sandalwood hairpins. The best grade is the ones that don't get wet."
According to Lin Qingwan's request, Chun Mian quickly combed her hair and inserted the hairpin. The former's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but praise her: "Miss, you are so amazing! You look like a different person dressed like this. !”
She has the temperament of those ladies in the capital, and she can calm down the scene just by sitting there.
"Okay, okay, stop talking so much, let's get there quickly, don't make people wait in a hurry."
The master and servant left the yard one after another. This place was not too far from the front hall, so they didn't walk long before they saw a group of boys not far away.
I originally thought that Chun Mian was exaggerating, but I didn't expect that Mr. Xiao actually had dozens of boxes of gold and silver treasures brought.
Her steps paused slightly, and she felt a little nervous for some reason.
After all, most of the people I met before had some evil intentions. The last time I was nervous was when I met the Queen Mother. From Chun Mian's words, I can know that this Master Xiao is probably someone like the Queen Mother.
Just as they paused, Xiao Yuming noticed them, then raised his hand directly, "Here!"
Lin Qingwan couldn't help but take a look at the man. He was still listless last night. Why did he look like a different person today?
Could it be that he figured it out on his own?
Looking sideways, he saw Xuan Qianchen sitting on the left side of the main seat, and a middle-aged man sitting on the right side of the main seat.
This middle-aged man looked to be in his forties or fifties, with a calm and calm expression, and a pair of eyes that were extremely deep and calm as water, with no waves or throbs visible in them.
Seeing his son's behavior, he subconsciously looked at Lin Qingwan.
Lin Qingwan immediately stood up straight, gently smoothed her clothes with one hand, then raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and walked towards the people step by step.
Xuan Qianchen also raised his head. He originally thought that the woman would embarrass him today, but the moment he saw what she was wearing, his eyes almost went straight to her.
"This is Mr. Xiao, I am Lin Qingwan." Lin Qingwan walked up to the middle-aged man, chose to ignore Xuan Qianchen beside him, and bowed slightly to Mr. Xiao without breaking the rules.
You know, her reputation in the capital has always been bad, especially after the substitute marriage, many rumors spread.
Coupled with the past incident with Han Jingzhi, it becomes even more apparent that she is half-hearted and wanton. Xiao Yuming's father had heard a little bit about it before, so his impression of Lin Qingwan was not very good.
But after Xiao Yunyan returned to Xiao's house last night, she told him everything that happened. He suddenly became interested in this woman, so he made an impromptu trip to visit her.
In addition, Xiao Yuming sent a letter to the Xiao family early in the morning, saying that he would go home and inherit the family business. Mr. Xiao was overjoyed, and he was even more certain that Lin Qingwan must be contributing to this, so he raised the letter early this morning. Come with gold, silver and jewelry.
"Master Xiao?" Seeing the middle-aged man's delay in responding, Lin Qingwan lowered her head subconsciously and then asked.
Only then did the other party recover his thoughts, stood up from his seat, and held his hands towards the woman, "Princess Zhan, please forgive me, I'm rude."
"It doesn't matter. Mr. Xiao is an elder, so there is no need to salute me like this."
One sentence instantly shortened the distance between the two. The expression on the middle-aged man's face became even more satisfied, and he couldn't help but look at the person in front of him again.
"Princess Zhan seems to be a little different from the rumors."
After saying this, the middle-aged man carefully observed Lin Qingwan's expression, trying to see something on her face.
But she just smiled slightly, and then blinked slowly, "People have to face a lot of rumors in this life. This is what everyone will experience. I don't care what others say, and I don't care what others think of me. As long as Do your best and you will be recognized by people over time. Sooner or later, everyone will understand."
"Okay! That's a wonderful thing to say!" Mr. Xiao applauded directly, seeming to agree with Lin Qingwan's statement.
The woman just smiled slightly and didn't give much reaction.
"Father, is my daughter right? Is Princess Zhan a little different from other women?" At this moment, Xiao Yunyan smiled and slowly took a step forward to the middle-aged man's side.
Mr. Xiao laughed and said, "That's true. It's not a waste of time for me to come here today."
After saying this, he turned back and glanced at Xiao Yuming, "This kid has never been willing to go home and inherit the family business. This morning he suddenly sent me a message saying that he wanted to go home and learn to manage the family business with me. , Yunyan has told me everything, Princess Zhan, I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of my deceased wife."
