Zhao Xian'er frowned, "Is the old lady not in the mansion?"
He Baochen nodded, shaking like a flower with a smile, "It's a coincidence, since my cousin came from a long way, it's better to stay at the He's house as a guest, firstly, let the He family treat her well, and secondly, for the sake of the cousin's safety, Lincheng is not very safe recently, bandits often come and go, and a little girl like my cousin lives outside, if something goes wrong, how will the He family explain it?"
He Baochen tried his best to persuade Zhao Xian'er to stay with his tongue, and directed at the two beautiful maids, He Baochen's heart was very itchy.
"That's right, the cousin of the Zhao family probably dislikes the He family, right? Although the He family is not as expensive as the Zhao family, it can be considered a respectable family in Lincheng anyway, and ordinary petty thieves would not dare to provoke them."
He Sui glanced at Zhao Xian'er, "Cousin of the Zhao family, why don't you just let it go, after all, Yan'er has caused a lot of trouble in Zhao's family for many years, why don't you just give the He family a chance?"
Zhao Xian'er raised her eyes to look at He Sui, then turned her eyes to He Yan, her eyes were sharp.
He Yan's scalp tightened for no reason, and he always felt that these three people came here with absolutely no good intentions.
"The Zhao family girl really looks down on the He family?"
Mrs. He dropped the teacup heavily on the table, making a crisp, snapping sound, which was very pleasant.
Zhao Xian'er followed her gaze, "Madam He is being polite, how dare this junior, since Mrs. He is not in the mansion, then I will disturb you."
Hearing this, the corners of Madam He's mouth curled up, smiling triumphantly.
"Come here, arrange a yard for Ms. Zhao Biao. If Ms. Zhao doesn't dislike it, the He family will clean up the dust for you tonight."
Zhao Xian'er did not refuse, but readily agreed.
For some reason, He Yan's eyelids twitched violently, and she always felt that something was wrong.
Not to mention Zhao Xian'er's status, just the two around her, a princess and the right minister's daughter, neither one is easy to mess with. If something goes wrong, the right minister will not be able to overthrow the He family !
Just as he was thinking, He Sui leaned forward and stared at the pearl hairpin on Zhao Xian'er's head in admiration. It was fashionable and made of rubies. It looked like a phoenix spreading its wings from a distance. He Sui couldn't take his eyes away immediately.
So he randomly pulled out a golden hairpin from his head, "I don't have anything to give when we meet for the first time. I will give this golden hairpin to my cousin. If my cousin is not used to living here, she can come to me at any time."
As she spoke, she inserted the golden hairpin into Zhao Xian'er's hair. Zhao Xian'er took a step back and said calmly, "Cousin He's being polite, I dare not accept such an expensive gift indiscriminately."
"What's the matter, if you feel sorry, we can exchange it." He Sui stared intently at the phoenix hairpin on Zhao Xianer's head, implying something.
Zhao Xian'er reached out and pulled out a small beaded flower hairpin, "I didn't wear anything expensive when I went out, except for this phoenix hairpin given by my grandmother on my head. I can't give it away at will. Only this beaded flower is left. If my cousin Change it if you don’t mind.”
He Sui's eyes darkened, and his face was extremely embarrassed. Only a fool would dare to exchange a gold hairpin for pearl flowers.
What He Sui saw was the phoenix hairpin, but Zhao Xian'er had long said that it was a gift from the elders and could not be given randomly, which directly blocked He Sui's intention.
But the outstretched hand was in the air, He Sui felt a little embarrassed, and just as he was about to retract the golden hairpin in his hand, He Baochen snatched it away.
He Baochen handed it to Zhao Xian'er with a look of hospitality, "My cousin has a fair complexion, and it would be most suitable to wear a golden hairpin. My cousin will put it on for you."
Speaking of which, He Baochen was going to touch Zhao Xian'er, and there was a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose, which made He Baochen feel like ecstasy and drunk, and his mind wandered for a while.
Zhao Xian'er had a cold face, "Young Master He, please respect yourself, men and women can't kiss each other!"
Seeing that the beauty was angry, He Baochen withdrew his hand, fearing to disturb Zhao Xian'er, he chuckled, "It's my cousin who offended you, don't blame me, my cousin will pay you for it."
Zhao Xian'er didn't even look at He Baochen, a look of disdain and coldness flashed across her eyes.
This He Sui was holding a pearl flower, his eyes were red with anger, and he lost a golden hairpin in vain, and stared at He Baochen, forgetting his true nature when he saw a beauty!
How could He Baochen see that he was all on Zhao Xian'er.
Mrs. He said, "Sui'er, Baochen, it's getting late, let Miss Biao go to rest for a while, don't be in a hurry if you have anything to say."
He Sui caught Madam He's wink, and then fell silent, holding back her breath.
He Baochen nodded without hesitation, and repeatedly told the maid to arrange Zhao Xian'er properly.
After the three of them left, He Baochen looked away and approached Mrs. He with a smile, "Mother, according to my son, if he can marry his cousin as his regular wife, he will not worry about getting rich in the future, and his son can go all the way up and become an official for the He family." Glory!"
He Baochen wished he could get Zhao Xian'er right away, and by the way, the two maids would not let go.
He Sui glared at He Baochen fiercely, and said sarcastically, "Brother is too confident, but he didn't even give you a straight look."
He Baochen's face suddenly became strange, and he glanced at He Yan, and He Yan's heart almost jumped into his throat.
"She can't let her have the final say on this, I'm afraid that when the time comes, she will cry and beg me to marry her!"
Mrs. He also smiled, as expected of a mother and son, they completely thought of going together.
"It's true, can people run under their noses?" In Madam He's eyes, Zhao Xian'er just recognized the lamb she slaughtered, so she couldn't run away!
Only then did He Sui come to his senses, showing a deep smile, "If I can marry Zhao Xian'er, my mother might be able to be an official wife in the future and enjoy the happiness of life."
Then I can also go to the capital to show off my youth, and maybe I can meet the noble son I like, He Sui blushed unconsciously thinking about it.
"Presumably the Zhao family has lived a very good life in the past two years, even the two maids have lived so well. I see that the material they are wearing is even better than mine."
He Sui frowned suddenly, "Since life is so good, why don't you win over the He family, it's too much!"
He Baochen automatically ignored the words next to He Sui, and only remembered what He Sui said, the maid next to Zhao Xian'er looked like she was bound to win.
"Those two maids are indeed beautiful, especially the light purple one. She doesn't look like a maid in her gestures. Even if she is a princess, some people will believe it. It's a pity to be a maid for nothing."
Madam He covered her mouth and smiled lightly, "If you like it, you can accept it."
"Thank you mother for making it happen!" He Baochen's eyes lit up, and he looked eager to try.
He Yan's heart skipped a beat, "Mother, that's not a maid..."
He Baochen was really bold, and set his mind on Miss Xiao, He Yan hurried out to stop it, otherwise a big mistake would happen, and she would be the first to be unlucky.
Mrs. He frowned, "It's not a maid, maybe it's the young lady of your family, who didn't even say hello when she came in, the young lady of your family wouldn't be so rude!"
"Could it be that the second sister knows each other?" He Sui interrupted with a smile.
He Yan nodded, "The light purple one on the left is the daughter of the Right Prime Minister of Kyoto, ranking ninth, and the yellow one on the right is the current emperor's niece, Princess Qingle!"
"Puchi!" He Sui couldn't help laughing, "Your prime minister's daughter and princess?"
"That's right!"
He Sui glanced at He Yan coldly, "Would they come to He's house because of their noble status?"
Mrs. He and He Baochen also had doubts in their eyes, half-believing.
"Believe it or not, these two are not easy characters to deal with in Kyoto. I have been in Kyoto for so long, but I have seen them."
He Yan made it clear, don't blame her for not reminding her when something happened.
He Baochen's eyes were astonishingly bright, "The right minister's name is like thunder, if he becomes the son-in-law of the right minister..."
He Yan snorted coldly, "Brother, Prime Minister on the right is the least afraid of threats from others. I advise you to give up your heart as soon as possible. Now that Concubine Xiao has been betrothed to Lord Zhao Hou of the capital, who is also the assistant of the First Prince, if you plan on her But it offended the First Prince and the Right Prime Minister's House!"
He Yan couldn't help rolling her eyes, she wouldn't bother reminding others.
He Baochen's face froze, and he smiled mischievously, "It's not as exaggerated as you said."
"The Prime Minister on the right is cruel and merciless. If Concubine Xiao is wronged, she will never let the He family go. The three princes connected to the right dare to send them to Liangzhou to suffer, let alone the He family?"
He Yan frowned, only felt that He Baochen was too reckless, and could not hear anyone except the pretty girl in her eyes.
Mrs. He also frowned, "Then why didn't you say it earlier?"
"Mother, how can my daughter have a chance to speak?" He Yan felt aggrieved.
It was as if He Baochen had been poured with a basin of cold water, and the duck in his mouth could not be eaten, so he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.
"Mother, the princess..." He Baochen turned his eyes and quickly shifted his target.
He Yanqi laughed, pursed her lips tightly and said nothing more, she had already said what should be said, and if she tried to persuade him too much, He Baochen would be annoyed.
Mrs. He's mind became active, and she glanced at He Yan, "Since you've been in the capital for a long time, please tell me."
He Yan said in a low voice, "Princess Qingle is kind of doting in front of the queen mother and the emperor, but the birth mother doesn't like it."
Mrs. He's eyes lit up when she heard that, "That's good. As for the emperor and the queen mother, they just pity her. There are so many princes and princesses, so it seems that she is a princess. Besides, isn't the queen mother's most beloved son of Prince Chen?"
He Baochen nodded and agreed, "Mother is right, why did the second sister go to the capital, and when she came back, she shrinks her head and lost her innocence when she was a child. She doesn't look down on the He family and forgets her duty. If I Live well, and you will be able to get married in the future!"
He Baochen's slightly threatening tone made He Yan's pupils shrink,
Not growing up in He's family, Mrs. He is not very close to her, especially Zhao Chanling has lost power, and even more ignores He Yan.
He Baochen's words immediately attracted Mrs. He's inquisitive eyes.
He Yan was so wronged that he wanted to cry, his heart was sour, and he quickly said, "Brother, I didn't mean that, I just hope that my brother can think calmly, if I can marry a good sister-in-law, I will be happy before it's too late."
In contrast, He Yan misses the days in Zhao's family even more, at least no one gives her a look, and the cost of food and clothing is first-class.
How is it like now, being squeezed by people all day long, and He Yanhui's intestines are green, so he shouldn't argue with Zhao Xian'er!
He Baochen snorted coldly, "That's about the same."
Mrs. He glanced at He Baochen, "Baochen, your sister is right, our family will not be able to reach such in-laws for a while."
He Yan raised her eyes in surprise, it was rare for Mrs. He to think clearly, it was He Baochen who was not good enough for him at all.
"If you marry a high-ranking daughter-in-law, you will be wronged, and you will have to be controlled. Let's marry Zhao Xian'er first, and then marry after you get promoted."
In Mrs. He's eyes, He Baochen is very good, even with a princess.
He Baochen looked hesitant, a little unwilling, and He Yan took a deep breath, "Brother, the princess was tricked once, and that person was sent to the frontier by the queen mother's family, and he was a first-rank official in the court. The biological mother was killed, if you bully her, she will turn the He family upside down!"
He Baochen took a few steps back when he heard this, "Those are just rumors, how can they be taken seriously!"
Even though he said that, when he thought about the knife-like eyes that Qingle looked at him today, He Baochen murmured in his heart and became timid.
Mrs. He comforted, "In my opinion, Zhao Xian'er is the most suitable, Bao Chen, let's feel wronged first."
He Baochen was pouted twice in a row, his face was a little displeased, and he nodded after a while, "Okay then, let's start with Zhao Xianer."
Speaking of Zhao Xian'er, He Baochen's eyes shone brightly. The more Zhao Xianer hated him, the more itchy He Baochen's heart became. A wave of evil fire was flowing in his abdomen, almost unable to be suppressed.
He Yan's goal from the beginning was Zhao Xian'er, as long as Zhao Xian'er was unlucky, she would feel at ease.
She will become Zhao Xian'er's sister-in-law in the future, look how arrogant she is!
If Zhao Xian'er married He Baochen, she would definitely be tortured to death soon.
