Looking at Xie Huailin on the side, he stared at Mr. Qiao eagerly, his watery eyes were like a deer's, full of expectation.
Mrs. Qiao stroked her forehead, knowing that her son might have been pestering him for a long time, so she said, "Zhuo'er, don't let him spoil you. If he turns around and develops the temperament of a demon king, he will be really lawless."
Seeing Mrs. Qiao not allowing her to go out by herself, Xie Huailin's eyes suddenly filled with tears, but she resisted letting them fall and said pitifully, "Yong'an is not the devil incarnate, I am very good, I promise to follow my sister and not run around! "
"You're not allowed to go then, just stay at home." Mrs. Qiao saw him creeping towards her, holding on to her clothes with both hands, shaking her flatteringly, and simply took his little claws away. He is not allowed to act coquettishly.
"Don't worry, mother, I'm here, nothing will happen." Seeing Xie Huailin about to cry, Xie Ruzhuo suddenly smiled. As she spoke, she hugged Xie Huailin over and took some snacks to soothe the tears that were about to fall from his eyes.
After having some snacks, Xie Huailin burst into tears and smiled. Mrs. Qiao said helplessly, "You just dote on him too much. Be careful if you look back and take advantage of him."
"I only have one biological brother like him. If I don't pamper him, who will I pamper? Is it possible that I will pamper those few?" Xie Ruzhuo smiled softly and let Xie Huailin play with the red pill in his hand.
What she said made Mrs. Qiao feel warm in her heart. She smiled and said, "Although this is reasonable, it is better to say less, otherwise if others hear it, it will inevitably cause trouble again."
"Yes, Zhuoer remembered it."
Seeing her being so obedient, Mrs. Qiao couldn't help but feel satisfied, because she remembered something and said, "That's right, don't go to your third aunt these days. They will have guests coming soon."
"Guest?" Xie Ruzhuo said with a surprised smile, "Is he the third aunt's natal family?"
Mrs. Qiao summarized the compiled accounts one by one and said with a smile, "No, it's your third sister's future husband's family. It is said that they will leave after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. They want to come and make a decision." At this point, she added He sighed, "Speaking of which, among the girls in our family, she was the first one to get married. It's time for your second sister to get haircut. There are quite a few people proposing marriage, but she doesn't like any of them."
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but smile and said, "Mom, don't worry, this wishful husband always wants everything he wants. How can he be so casual? Hmm, that's right. I wonder what the situation is like in that house?"
In the previous life, Xie Rulan worked hard to climb up the ladder, but in the end she hooked up with the fifth prince and stayed with him even though she was still unmarried. After Xie Shengli became furious, he had to shyly ask the fifth prince what he meant.
Unexpectedly, the other party did not take Xie Rulan seriously and claimed that he could only marry her as a concubine. Xie Rulan was clamoring for marriage again like a maniac. This quarrel lasted for some time. Finally, Xie Shengli was so angry that she fell ill. After Xie Rulan had a private discussion with the fifth prince, she was carried into the side entrance of the prince's mansion by a small sedan in green clothes. After Xie Shengli found out about this, he was already helpless.
At that time, she had already married into the second prince's house, and was coaxed by Xiao Junhan to not go out much anymore, so she didn't know much about Xie Rulan's situation. I just remember that Xie Rulan didn't seem to be very favored. Every time she went home to visit her grandmother, she would see her third aunt crying.
When the Xie family was in such a bad situation, I'm afraid Xie Rulan's fate wouldn't be much better.
Now that he heard that someone came to ask for marriage, Xie Ruzhuo immediately became interested. Xie Rulan is greedy. If she can get married safely, it will save the Xie family some trouble.
Mrs. Qiao didn't know what she was thinking, so when she asked, she came one by one, "It's said that he is the son of Xuzhou Daotai, and the child is still an only son. I think your third aunt must be extremely satisfied, otherwise she wouldn't show off to others." It’s been a while.”
Xie Ruzhuo pondered for a while and said, "It sounds good." I only hope that Xie Rulan can marry well, otherwise, she will cut off all her greed for the royal family!
The mother and daughter had been busy all day, and the sky turned into twilight in Xie Huailin's expectation.
Mrs. Qiao had already arranged for a stronger boy from her family to accompany her, and after giving many instructions, she watched the two siblings go out.
The carriage rumbled to Zhongzheng Street and could no longer move forward. The originally wide street was now blocked by servants and pedestrians on both sides.
Xie Ruzhuo looked at the situation, ordered the boys to follow behind him, and got out of the car with Xie Huailin.
When Xie Huailin came out for the first time, he was like a bird out of its cage. He grabbed Xie Ruzhuo's hand and kept chattering.
The night market was packed with people and bustling with activity. Although Xie Ruzhuo echoed Xie Huailin's words with a smile, he was extremely nervous. She regretted it now. Bringing such a little baby out was really asking for trouble.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about now—
"Fourth sister, Yong'an wants to eat glutinous rice cake."
Xie Huailin almost used all his strength to drag Xie Ruzhuo forward with his short legs.
But there were too many people in front, so it became a bit crowded as people came and went.
Xie Huailin walked hummingly for half a day, but he was still a few steps away from the small stall. He suddenly became sad, curled his lips, and said in a sweet voice, "Fourth sister, Yong'an wants to eat."
Xie Ruzhuo pinched his eyebrows helplessly, picked him up, walked to the vendor, and wrapped a rice cake for him.
After walking like this for half a street, the two siblings gained nothing else, but they had already carried dozens of bags of food.
Suddenly, they heard a boom and explosion nearby. Everyone looked around and saw a firework blooming above the sparkling lake.
After this fireworks bloomed, several more rose into the sky, adding even more scenery to the already gorgeous night.
Xie Huailin became very interested and immediately wanted to go to the lake to watch the fireworks.
Xie Ruzhuo was helpless by him, so he had no choice but to agree. Seeing that the boys behind him could not squeeze in, he turned around and gave some instructions, telling them to wait at the street entrance, while he took Xie Huailin's hand and walked towards the lake.
By the moat, there were several large boats parked against the shore, with exquisite and dazzling palace lanterns hanging on the bows. Fireworks were constantly flying into the sky from the boats. Occasionally, the clear and clear voice of the singer could be heard, which added a little more charm to the night. Beautiful color.
The two siblings finally arrived at the moat. They saw people here, and there was a vendor with a lotus-shaped lantern in front of him, and he was shouting loudly.
When Xie Huailin saw it, he immediately let go of Xie Ruzhuo's hand and ran over with his short legs.
Just as Xie Ruzhuo was about to stop him, he heard someone behind him tentatively shout, "Miss Xie?"
She turned around in confusion, only to see Xiao Junxi coming towards the beautiful moonlight.
Obviously, the lights in the market are like dragons, and people are rushing around, but among these thousands of people, he is the only one. Just by wearing a long gown, he can gather a ray of light all over his body, making people unable to ignore him.
Xie Ruzhuo's heart skipped a beat when he saw it, then he suppressed the slight throbbing, nodded and said with a smile, "Third Young Master."
As if he didn't expect that she would call him that, Xiao Junxi was surprised at first, and then replied, "I didn't expect to meet you here. Did you come by yourself?"
No wonder he couldn't see Xie Huailin, there were too many tourists around, and Xie Huailin was a baby, making it difficult for anyone to spot him.
"Well, my brother and I went out to enjoy the lanterns together—"
As Xie Ruzhuo said this, he turned around and wanted to introduce Xie Huailin to Xiao Junxi.
But when she turned around, she was immediately shocked, and the original smile froze on her face.
There were many people coming and going, but the only thing missing was that fiery little figure!
Xie Ruzhuo frowned and looked at the passers-by, tears about to fall down in an instant. She is so stupid, why can't she even take care of a little baby
Seeing Xie Ruzhuo's expression changed drastically, Xiao Junxi was also stunned. He had some impressions of the Xie family's little baby, so he comforted him immediately, "Don't worry, I'll help you find it together."
Fireworks exploded from the sky again, with colorful reflections on Xie Ruzhuo's face. Xiao Junxi was stunned for a moment.
Xie Ruzhuo didn't notice the change in his expression, and just said, "It's better not to trouble the Third Young Master. I'll go find it myself." With that, she was about to leave.
Xiao Junxi stopped her and said, "Let my guards follow you. If I find him first later, I will send a signal to him. If you find him, let him contact me too, okay?"
"That's it, thank you very much." Xie Ruzhuo thought for a moment and felt that his method was feasible, so he hurriedly thanked him and anxiously looked for him along the river.
Xiao Junxi made a secret signal and immediately led the people to the other side.
But I don't know whether it was because there were too many people in Deng City or because Xie Huailin was running too far away. Xie Ruzhuo rushed all the way, but he didn't see that little figure until he walked out of the crowd.
The hawkers on the roadside continued to sell goods, and she was not in the mood to look at them at all, so she looked around anxiously.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned a corner and entered an alley, he was blocked by three people coming towards him.
The man in front of him had a strong back but a somewhat wretched appearance. He made a move that he thought was cool and said with an evil smile, "Little lady, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Xie Ruzhuo was in a state of panic when he was suddenly blocked by these people. He looked worried and said, "Get away."
"Hey, who are you telling to get out? Do you know who you are talking to? Keep your mouth clean!" After hearing Xie Ruzhuo's words, another man with a somewhat sarcastic appearance said immediately.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped hard on the head, and the leading man scolded, "How dare you talk to a little beauty like this? You offended my beauty, I want you to look good!"
As he said that, the man approached Xie Ruzhuo again and said with a smile, "Little lady, don't be afraid, we just want to have fun with you."
Seeing that the man's hand was about to touch Xie Ruzhuo's face, she threw the cake in her hand and said fiercely, "I said get out of here, don't you understand?"
The wrapping of the pastry was not secure in the first place, but when Xie Ruzhuo applied some force, he saw the pastry scattered in all directions. The man's face was stained with pastry crumbs, and his expression became increasingly ugly. He made a sound and said, "If you don't want to drink a toast, I'll have to drink a fine drink. Brothers, hold her down for me. We met such a beautiful little girl today, and we want to have enough fun!"
When the two people behind him heard this, they immediately rushed forward with a ferocious smile.
Unexpectedly, just when these people were about to touch Xie Ruzhuo's clothes, they suddenly fell over.
"Ouch!" The hunky-backed man didn't even see clearly who was coming, but he was thrown out by a strong force, and stars were shining in his eyes at the moment. When he saw clearly that there was a lean man in black in front of him, he suddenly became a little disdainful and said fiercely, "Where did you run out? I tell you, I fell in love with this woman first, you If you want to score points, you have to stay back!"
