Chapter 28

"Good boy." Mrs. Lu sighed, "It's not easy for your grandmother."

"So, I want to help grandma." Xiao Mingzhu also spoke bluntly.

Mrs. Lu chuckled softly: "Don't cause trouble for your grandmother. Let me tell you secretly, your grandmother is also someone who is not easy to mess with."

Xiao Mingzhu said seriously: "They are all here for my things. If I don't go, my grandmother will protect me wholeheartedly. I will only be called cold-blooded."

Mrs. Lu heard the words, and looked at Xiao Mingzhu with interest. Xiao Mingzhu wore an apricot yellow coat that was probably new today, and tied a small bun with a jade hairpin on it. It was a very simple dress. , but the self-confidence exuding on his face was able to attract people's attention, and even she was a little moved by her words.

She asked with a smile: "Then Xiao Wu was unconscious at the door of the house. Your grandmother knew that this was the Houfu's plan, but she had to take her in. Now, what if you go, drive her out, or you? Give them away?"

Zhichun's heart ached, she knew that this was Mrs. Lu trying to test the girl how she would behave.Although the girl is smart, she is still young, so don't be distracted by Mrs. Lu's words and say something that shouldn't be said.

Xiao Mingzhu blinked her eyes, and replied without thinking: "They are all making trouble for this, so let's do it." She had already thought of a countermeasure. Let's deal with Xiao San and Xiao Wu.

Mrs. Lu frowned slightly, feeling a little disappointed in her heart, but she was relieved in an instant.Xiao Mingzhu is only 12 years old, and her actions are simple and straightforward, even a little rude, which is desirable, if she behaves like an old woman who has been in the backyard for decades, she will be afraid.

Mrs. Lu wanted to remind, but before she could speak, she heard Xiao Mingzhu say: "They want a prescription, I can give it, but some ugly things have to be said first."

"Oh?" Mrs. Lu became interested: "What ugly words?"

Xiao Mingzhu said seriously: "Fang Zi can't be given in private, you have to prove that there is no problem with Fang Zi, and then give it after being confirmed by someone with authority. If Fifth Sister suffers from something, it has nothing to do with the General's House."

Madam Lu didn't realize what the solution was.

How can there be something wrong with a prescription that has no problems? Is there some mystery in the prescription?
Xiao Mingzhu said: "Physician Jiang will come over to see me in a while. I think I will ask Doctor Jiang to test the prescription to make sure there is no problem with the prescription. There is no problem with the prescription. As for whether you want it or not, it is up to the old patriarch's wife and cousin Decide for yourself."

She gave Mrs. Lu a polite blessing: "Mingzhu still wants to ask Mrs. Lu to be a witness."

Mrs. Lu now decided that there must be some problem with that recipe that she didn't know. She couldn't help but laugh. She was indeed the direct grandson of the Xu family's sister, and she was not bad at all.

She was also curious about the secrets in that prescription, so she nodded immediately: "Okay, we'll go there too, and support your grandmother."

"Hey." This time Xiao Mingzhu responded bluntly, and hurriedly helped Mrs. Lu up, as if she was afraid that Mrs. Lu would go back on her word.

Mrs. Lu reached out and tapped the tip of her nose: "What a cute one."

Because of this filial piety, she fell in love with this girl, and discussed it with her daughters-in-law after returning home.

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the flower hall, I heard the high-pitched voice of the old patriarch's wife.

Mrs. Lu stopped and patted the back of Xiao Mingzhu's hand lightly. Xiao Mingzhu understood that she meant to let her listen to the movement inside before going in.

The old patriarch's wife said: "Sister-in-law, when the clan made that decision, it was also for the consideration of the Xiao family. It has been so many years, and you and Huai En are living well now, so why bother with it. Besides, Huai En En has gained the emperor's trust, and maybe he will be able to get a title in two years. Even if not, it will not be difficult for Huai En to be a family of officials for generations because of his military exploits."

Xiao Mingzhu really wanted to go in and slap the old patriarch's wife twice.Giving up the hereditary and irreplaceable title to the third uncle, and having my father change from the established Marquis to a branch of Guangyang Marquis, this is the biggest pain in my grandmother's heart. It has almost become an obsession. Can I just let it go? ?
Fighting for a title, thinking that a title is a big carrot in the wild, and you can find it right away?

If it wasn't for the oath of heaven that made her fall into a coma for three days, and she hasn't fully recovered yet, she insisted on asking the old patriarch's wife to take a good look at her recent luck.

The old patriarch's wife saw that Mrs. Xu liked to ignore her, and said again: "After all, I can't write two Xiao characters in one stroke. The fifth sister is like this, so you can't take pity on one or two? Anyway, she is also your direct relative. My nephew and grand-niece, don't be too unkind, it's not good to spread the word, and it will affect the reputation of the seventh sister. It's time for the seventh sister to discuss marriage, and you have been closed for many years, and you have long been unfamiliar with the situation of each family , and it’s inconvenient to take Seventh Sister to various banquets. You reach out to help Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang will definitely remember your kindness. I’m here to guarantee for Mrs. Wang’s marriage in the future. , Wrap it on the head of the Hou Fu."

Mrs. Xu snorted twice, and the mockery on her face was clearly revealed: "Then I will not bother Mrs. Wang."

Want her to trust the Wang family regarding Xiao Mingzhu's marriage?Her brain wasn't broken.

Xiao Qingshuang, who had been pretending to be dizzy and was placed in the flower hall pavilion, couldn't bear it anymore when she saw that Mrs. Xu refused to eat oil, salt, and soft and hard food. She pretended to wake up with a "beep". Aunt Qiao immediately said to the servant brought by Xiao Qingshuang: "Your girl is awake, hurry up and take care of her."

Xiao Qinghe saw Aunt Qiao asking the maid from the General's Mansion to stand two steps away and supervise, and was not allowed to reach out to touch the corners of Xiao Qingshuang's clothes. She understood Aunt Qiao's intention.With such a person around the seventh sister, it is no wonder that after the incident between her and the fifth prince spread, even though so many ladies were in trouble, she did not suffer any loss.

She glanced at Aunt Qiao with envy and fear, and met Aunt Qiao's half-smiling gaze. She felt that all her little thoughts had nowhere to hide under Aunt Qiao's gaze, and she immediately lowered her head with a guilty conscience.

"Third sister..." Xiao Qingshuang called out dissatisfied, "Help me up, I'm going to ask my uncle and grandma."

Xiao Qinghe was a little hesitant. At this time, she was really not sure what the consequences of her idea would be.

But now that things have reached this point, she can't just stop if she wants.She could only reach out and help Xiao Qingshuang up under Aunt Qiao's mocking gaze.

Outside the flower hall, Xiao Mingzhu couldn't help reaching out and holding the amber beads tied around her waist, calling out in her heart: "008."

She heard the phrase "system upgrade" again.

008 could not be contacted, she was a little disappointed, but also a little relieved.

She wanted to use 008's power to inquire about Zhang Nannan's whereabouts, or Xiao Qinghe's details, but she was afraid that she would be seeking skin from a tiger.

Since there is no other choice, it is better to follow her heart.
