"Prince Xu doesn't deny his uncle!" When Gongsun Yingjiang heard that, he immediately became anxious. He threw away the palace ribbon fidgeting in his legs, leaned towards Sheng Weiqiao, and said in a low voice but fiercely, "Auntie, you can't do that. ! Every time he sees someone, you jump out and say no - wait, aunt, are you wrong about Crown Prince Xu?"
She leaned on the edge of the couch with her legs, and half-covered her lips with her legs. Her cat-like eyes revealed a clear look and said, "But his eyesight is stupid. No wonder he just said that Prince Xu's painting skills are not as good as his uncle's. Auntie, you are so angry! Auntie, don’t worry, he won’t rob you!”
"...I don't ask for random thoughts!!!" Sheng Weiqiao's face was red, half angry, half shy. She grabbed Gongsun Yingjiang's sleeve and shouted, "He just treats Brother Xu Shi as his biological brother! "
Gongsun Yingjiang said disapprovingly: "There was no one else around at that time. He could even tell aunt about what he missed about his little uncle. Why would aunt have to hide it? Besides, he promised not to rob you!"
"Who covered it up?!" He looked at her face and said, "Auntie, are you really disappointing him? He is so heartbroken about you. Your admiration for Crown Prince Xu is so secretive that you want to hide it from him. It really chills him." Sheng Weiqiao said Out of embarrassment, he hit her and said angrily, "He and Xu Shixiong are of the same generation, and they are not engaged. He is asking if he is wrong, and he has intentions. Is there anything he shouldn't say?! But is that something that doesn't happen? He Why are you asking for recognition?"
Gongsun Yingjiang curled his lips and said: "In the big summer, I went to the yard to paint lotus flowers under the noon sun. The lotus paintings were not very good. The two of us talked more and more enthusiastically. When he interrupted, we all started to attack him. My son’s rejection—what does my aunt call the relationship between biological brothers and sisters? Then why don’t you see your little uncle asking you to go to the garden to paint and laugh at the same time?!”
"What are I thinking about!" If Sheng Weiqiao was embarrassed and angry just now, he is really angry now!
She said with a serious face, "Brother Xu Shi has inherited the court training since he was a child. He is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and song. I have also seen the garden in our mansion. Although it is not as old as Feng Mansion and Xuanyu Mansion, it is still good. Everything is carefully crafted! Maybe it looks good to people like us who have no literary talent, but for a talented person like Xu Shixiong to be moved by the scene and recite poems and paintings for it, isn't it normal?"
Sheng Weiqiao looked at Gongsun Yingjiang and sighed in disappointment, "Ying Jiang, I am no longer on Tortoiseshell Island! According to what my father said and what my father meant, I will probably live on the shore in the future! So I can't Then use the idea of Tortoiseshell Island to figure out the people and things in the world - if he said that, it would be an insult to me, because as an aunt, I misunderstood him and Xu Shixiong, and it would be useless to explain clearly! Even if I don’t believe it, and he won’t say he hates me!”
"But other people don't disapprove of my aunt, and they may not be willing to disapprove of my tolerance!"
"Including Brother Xu, please tell me the truth. As the eldest son of a marquis, Brother Xu has a distinguished status. If it weren't for the friendship between Mr. Xu and his grandfather, our family would not be qualified to receive him. Although he has a generous temperament, They are not the kind of people who use their power to bully others, but as hosts, they cannot lose their etiquette just because their guests are good-tempered and well-bred!"
"That would not only disgrace the Sheng family, but also take the years of friendship between my grandfather and Mr. Xu seriously!"
"Qu Zhongqiu, after my ridiculous speculation spreads out, even if Brother Xu Shi doesn't trouble me, it will give outsiders the impression of being talkative - that's wrong for me, and it's really not a good thing!" "
"Ying Jiang, am I red or not?"
Sheng Weiqiao looked at her niece and walked away, staring at her niece quietly, feeling so tired!
Back on Tortoiseshell Island, she thought that the only obstacle to her sincere acceptance of the Gongsun siblings as nephews and nieces was that they were from rough backgrounds and were not from the same orthodox family as her own; only now did she realize that she was too young and too young. So naive!
The biggest obstacle brought about by different origins is not the difference in status at all, but the difference in awareness, okay
"Aunt, don't you feel it?" While Sheng Weiqiao was roaring silently in his heart, Gongsun Yingjiang finally changed his posture and said with a half-smile but not a smile, "Aunt, you only care about Crown Prince Xu as your brother... Crown Prince Xu is wrong for you, but Do you think you should treat her as your biological sister?"
Without waiting for Sheng Weiqiao to retort angrily, she said first, "He came to the Sheng family not long ago, and he doesn't know much about the wrongdoing of Crown Prince Xu. Even if he saved you before and chased you to Hai Zai, or even ended up living on Tortoiseshell Island, it was all because of the two families." Friendship, but yesterday you were angry in the second room and returned there in frustration. As your brother, my uncle, as your brother, went to visit you after hearing the news. It was nothing more! Prince Xu actually managed to escape immediately and rushed to comfort you, That really makes people think too much!”
Sheng Weiqiao held back his anger: "Since I said it's right for my uncle to go see him, Brother Xu Shi is like his biological brother, so what's the point of going to see him?!"
"But that's the Sheng Mansion, and it's not the Tortoiseshell Island!" Gongsun Yingjiang looked at her with a smile, as if he was surprised that she didn't even think of such a simple truth, "Auntie, do you think that mansion deserves to be in the palm of your hand? After you feel wronged, the number of people who come to comfort you and vent your anger should be as numerous as the crucian carp crossing the river! There is no shortage of the thoughtfulness of Prince Xu! Is Zhu Ying Xiaozhu your boudoir, your family It’s just a big deal to come there, but Crown Prince Xu is running over here, so what does that mean?!”
Sheng Weiqiao was stunned, but he didn't quite believe what he said. After thinking for a while, he retorted: "Although Brother Xu Shi is not a guest, he was in danger in front of the sea. Speaking of which, they have lived and died together, and their friendship cannot be the beginning." It’s a matter of subject and object! He heard that he was wronged and went to care about Dong. Doesn’t it show his love and justice? "
Gongsun Yingjiang covered his mouth with his sleeves and snickered: "Auntie, you said before that Prince Xu inherited the court training from a young age. So, Prince Xu's rules are not better than those of yours, at least they should not be worse than those of your aunt. How much is wrong?"
"No, that's right." Sheng Weiqiao frowned, "So what do I want to say?"
"Then even your aunt could make the mistake of climbing over the wall to see your little uncle say, 'You are already thirteen years old, and your father and brother are asking for privacy.' Why didn't Prince Xu think of that, and actually walked around Zhu Ying Xiaozhu for more than half a month? You drank two pots of tea, and you didn't feel relieved to leave until you saw that you were fine?" Gongsun Yingjiang said with a smile, "Oh, that's wrong, it seems that the one whom my aunt called 'big brother' hasn't come to visit yet. What about you? Although that person has never lived or died with you, isn’t he the one you’ve gotten along with the longest among your brothers?”
Gongsun Yingjiang said meaningfully, "My aunt thinks he is careless, but how can my aunt explain that Prince Xu is now more attentive to you than your eldest cousin, Mr. Shanda, whom you grew up with?"
Sheng Weiqiao was stunned, her face changing expression. After a while, she suddenly turned pale and glared at Gongsun Yingjiang. Gongsun Yingjiang let her look at him with a smile. He was wondering whether the aunt should continue to escape or not, or face the reality. Thinking about it, Sheng Weiqiao said suspiciously: "He remembers whether he was in the backyard when he persuaded his brother to avoid taboos, and there was no third person around at that time!"
"Looking at my brother, he doesn't like to talk too much. And because he knows what I'm thinking, he's afraid it'll be too late to hide from me, so he never takes the initiative to come to me and tell me the truth behind their conversation between brother and sister!"
"Then how do I know that sentence?"
Gongsun Yingjiang thought for a while and said, "No, that's not the case: that day he saw that his aunt was in a bad mood, and even after telling his uncle, he was still worried, so he sneaked outside the backyard wall and eavesdropped for a while, hoping that his aunt would not ask for help. Complain with him!"
"His backyard is neither too big nor too small!" Sheng Weiqiao looked at her expressionlessly, "That day he and his brother shut up, but they were on the east side of the wisteria flower stand. Their voices were not loud. I'm afraid they could have heard it if they were standing on the other side of the pond. I don’t know, let alone if it’s outside the wall?”
Gongsun Yingjiang opened his mouth and was about to continue making excuses when suddenly Sheng Weiqiao slapped the case and shouted sharply, "Tell the truth!"
"He was lying on the wisteria flower stand at the time, so he could hear clearly!" Gongsun Yingjiang had no choice but to confess, "Bun Nao, aunt, when I say that now, about Xu Shizi's misunderstanding of your thoughts-"
"He thinks they must make that clear!" But Sheng Weiqiao interrupted her without politeness. The evil spirit in Xingzi's eyes was as real as she pointed at Gongsun Yingjiang, "Brother, he climbed over the wall and went to the backyard to find him. Of course I can comfort him! And since I have already found my brother to comfort him, why do I secretly lie on the flower stand in his backyard and eavesdrop?!"
Before Gongsun Yingjiang could explain, she sneered, "Is it because of my brother? My brother is better at martial arts than me and more scheming than me! He kept away from me, and I had no chance to get close - so it happened that my second aunt made a mistake yesterday He was not very kind, so I quickly told my brother what happened so that he could go find him! And when my brother comforted him, even if he knew that I was right above his head, he wouldn’t expose it, no, no?!”
Gongsun Yingjiang was stunned and said: "No, is he actually worried..."
"I'm obviously obsessed with my brother to that extent! I'll try my best to meet him!" Sheng Weiqiao interrupted her again and shouted with almost tears, "You are so obsessed with him, how can you be so happy tomorrow?" Just let go, am I lying to him at all - Ying Jiang, do I dare to be more sensible and not be so impulsive and so nonsense? ! Do you know how many people I will harm if I do that? ! "
Seeing her expression of sadness, disappointment and resentment, Gongsun Yingjiang threw himself weakly at Ji Zai, and said painfully: "Is it true that he really didn't lie? Is it because you, aunt, just came over!!!"
Seeing Sheng Weiqiao looking at him coldly, he sneered. Gongsun Yingjiang helped Xiao Ji walk straight, gritted his teeth and said, "Auntie, don't you believe it?"
"Of course he doesn't believe it!" Sheng Weiqiao said angrily, "I went too far! He wanted to get straight to the point with me, but I kept lying to him!"
"Then he is going to sleep with Prince Xu now!" Gongsun Yingjiang gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. He stood up from the table and said resolutely, "According to your aunt's idea of constantly, if he sleeps with Prince Xu, then he will not follow him. Is there anything wrong with little uncle?"
Sheng Weiqiao almost fell from his seat: "What are you talking nonsense about?"
"Anyway, aunt, you treat Prince Xu as your brother, and you will treat him as your brother and have a good night with me, right?" Gongsun Yingjiang raised his eyebrows and said boldly, "Anyway, Prince Xu will not be pregnant, nor will he get married because of it. stay home!"
She pondered for a moment when she said that, then raised her head and added, "If aunt feels that it is not enough for him to show his sincerity by sleeping with Crown Prince Xu -"
The girl's eyebrows were curved and she said happily, "He can sleep with a few more people - he just wants to be as handsome as Prince Xu's very young uncle!"
"..." Sheng Weiqiao stared at her with wide eyes and looked at her for a moment. Suddenly, his face softened unexpectedly, and his tone also changed to cautious, with suppressed fear and guilt, "Ying Jiang, I want to know if he is afraid." I took the wrong path and ruined myself for the rest of my life! Juecuo Juecuo didn’t mean to dislike me or look down on me! I... "
