"I……"
Xiao Qinyu blushed and hesitated.
He complained secretly in his heart, and his sister-in-law really didn't know how to make amends for him.
Isn't this a deliberate attempt to embarrass him?
Ruan Yunluo was sincerely trying to embarrass him.
She watched the excitement and waited until Xiao Chongjing had finished scolding Xiao Qinyu, then slowly put down the teacup and started to be a good person.
"General, calm down." Ruan Yunluo looked at Xiao Chongjing and said warmly, "It is indeed wrong for my second brother to skip school, but it is also thanks to him, otherwise Miss Xiaorou would be in danger today.
The second brother is indispensable for Miss Xiaorou's safe return today. "
She smiled and looked at Yin Xiaorou, "Really, Miss Xiaorou?"
"That's what the lady said."
Yin Xiaorou nodded meekly.
She looked at Xiao Chongjing sincerely and explained: "I went to the wrong place in Lingxiao Garden today. If I hadn't met the second young master, I would..."
She pursed her lips and stood up, then gratefully knelt down to Xiao Qinyu and said, "Thank you, Second Young Master."
"no, I'm fine."
Xiao Qinyu's face turned red instantly.
He was in a hurry and didn't know what to say, but he heard Xiao Chongjing snort, "It's something everyone can do, what's the fuss about."
"that is."
Xiao Qintang coolly agreed.
She looked her second brother up and down, and said disdainfully: "My kungfu is so bad that I can't even protect my sister, but I still imitate other heroes to save the beauty... If it were the eldest brother today, he would definitely not let me get hurt."
"What's wrong with me?" Xiao Qinyu was unconvinced.
"You are just bad at kung fu!" Xiao Qintang was angry.
The brother and sister who were born on the same day in the same month of the same year have often fought since they were young. Of course, no one is giving in to the other at this moment, and they are about to fight again...
At this time, Xiao Chongjing slapped the table, "Shut up, everyone!"
He looked at Xiao Qinyu and said, "Look at you, you don't act like a brother! If you continue to idle around like this, no girl will be willing to marry you in the future!"
"If you don't want to marry, just don't marry." Xiao Qinyu muttered unconvincedly, "I don't mind marrying those vulgar people."
"Then what do you like?"
Ruan Yunluo suddenly spoke, and Xiao Qinyu's face turned red.
"I..." He glanced at Yin Xiaorou secretly, then quickly looked away in embarrassment, "I don't know either."
"How does he know whether he likes it or not?"
Xiao Chongjing glanced at Ruan Yunluo with dissatisfaction, then looked at Xiao Qinyu, and said earnestly: "You are nothing now. Who is a good girl who would be willing to marry you? Let's wait until you can get a rank in the imperial examination this year."
"When you first married my sister-in-law, weren't you nothing?"
Xiao Qinyu was not convinced.
There were so many people pursuing my sister-in-law, including sons, princes, and grandsons. Didn't she still marry into the general's mansion?
"you……"
Xiao Chongjing was speechless.
He couldn't help but look at Ruan Yunluo, wanting to see her reaction, but found that she was drinking tea and didn't seem to care at all.
This made him feel uncomfortable.
It wasn't until I returned to Suifeng Garden after dinner that this discomfort gradually disappeared.
Ruan Yunluo sat down to remove his makeup, and when he saw the unsightly man in the mirror, he felt uneasy.
"Don't you have to go to the study today?" She reminded very thoughtfully, "Business matters are important, don't delay."
"Um."
Xiao Zhong nodded.
He was just about to get up and leave, but he felt something was wrong for no reason... He glanced at Ruan Yunluo again, and suddenly asked: "Are you chasing me away?"
"ah?"
Ruan Yunluo was startled.
She looked at Xiao Chongjing as if she hadn't heard clearly, "What did you just say?"
"nothing."
Xiao Chongjing felt that he was really crazy, how could he have such strange thoughts.
I remember that in order to marry him, Ruan Yunluo even rejected the prince's marriage proposal. Later, in order to let him go to the northwest with peace of mind, she, a newlywed who had just been married for only a year, actually took her sister-in-law and brother-in-law to raise her personally... She could do this for him, so how could she be willing to drive him away? ?
She is just too virtuous, that's why she always behaves like this.
Xiao Chongjing thought unconsciously, suddenly feeling a little guilty towards Ruan Yunluo.
He stood up and walked towards Ruan Yunluo, just about to touch her shoulder... Ruan Yunluo put down the hairpin and stood up, walked to the table and poured himself a cup of tea.
Picking up the tea cup, she seemed to suddenly think of something. She suddenly looked at Xiao Chongjing and asked, "General, what do you think of Miss Xiaorou?"
"How about what?" Xiao Chongjing felt guilty and his tone became unhappy, "Why do you keep mentioning her when you have nothing to do?"
"Don't you see?" Ruan Yunluo drank tea with a gossipy face, "Second brother seems to like her very much. I asked him before what type of girl he likes, and he glanced at her, and his face turned red with embarrassment..."
"Yeah?"
Xiao Chongjing breathed a sigh of relief.
He took a sip of tea and thought for a moment, then suddenly his eyes dimmed and he shook his head in opposition, "It's not right if you don't belong to the right family, no."
"Why not?" Ruan Yunluo deliberately contradicted him, "Whether it's making friends or getting a wife, family background is important, but the most important thing is character."
"Miss Xiaorou is such a good character. If I missed it, where would you ask Qinyu to marry such a good wife?"
"do not talk!"
Xiao Chongjing couldn't bear it anymore and stood up, saying "I won't do it if I say no", and left Suifeng Garden.
When he arrived at the door of Longyan Pavilion, he held the jade pendant in his hand and was about to go in, when he suddenly saw his younger brother. He was holding a bottle of wound medicine in his hand and was stuffing it into Yin Xiaorou's hand with a blushing face.
"Thank you, Second Young Master, but I just had a little skin injury, nothing serious. And I have already taken medicine." Yin Xiaorou quickly shrank her hands and refused.
"My medicine is better."
Xiao Qinyu didn't notice Yin Xiaorou's politeness to him at all, and remained stubborn.
Yin Xiaorou had no choice but to reach out and take the ointment when she saw Xiao Chongjing not far away.
"General Xiao!"
Yin Xiaorou immediately ran over with a smile.
"Brother, why are you here?"
Suddenly seeing his brother, Xiao Qinyu felt worried. Could he be here to catch him? Could he be beaten?
Fortunately, Xiao Chongjing had no intention of beating him. He just glanced at him lightly and asked his previous question, "What about you, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
"Send medicine."
Xiao Qinyu shook the medicine in his hand and said calmly.
"The house lacks your medicine?" Xiao Chongjing looked at his younger brother angrily, "Go to bed quickly. If you dare to be late when you return to Imperial College tomorrow, see how I deal with you!"
"I see."
Xiao Qinyu muttered in reply.
Finally, he couldn't help but glance at Yin Xiaorou again, and then reluctantly left.
But Yin Xiaorou didn't give him any look at all, she only had Xiao Chongjing in her heart.
She stood in front of Xiao Chongjing and looked at him for a long time. When she realized that she was in a trance, she quickly lowered her head shyly and whispered: "General, are you looking for me?"
"Um."
Looking at the red tips of her ears under the moonlight, Xiao Chongjing's heart softened.
"What's up?"
Yin Xiaorou lowered her head and asked in a soft voice.
"The thing you asked me to do before..." Xiao Chongjing held the jade pendant in his hand tightly and said with difficulty, "I have found your father."
