Chapter 1042: That’s not a home, it’s clearly a den of wolves and tigers
Mrs. Xu didn't expect Jiang Wan to say that, and the shock in her eyes didn't seem to be fake.
"Princess, I am so kind to you. I came here specifically to pick up the two brothers and sisters."
"I know."
Jiang Wan nodded slightly, "But I like this child Xiaoqiong. When she grows up, I will definitely send her back to the Marquis Mansion."
"grandmother."
Xu Xiaolei stood up and said: "Qiong'er didn't dare to see too many people after being stimulated.
She is in love with the princess, so why not let her stay here for a while.
When my grandson has established a foothold in Kyoto, he will come to pick up his sister. "
What he said was very straightforward. Kyoto was too chaotic and he didn't feel safe taking his sister away.
In the same way, the younger sister staying with the princess just let the world know that the princess is protecting them.
Even if my sister goes back in the future, no one will dare to cause trouble for her easily.
Xu Xiaolei felt bad that he was just bothering the princess a little.
"This……"
Mrs. Xu was reluctant in her heart. She finally found her grandchildren.
So she softened her voice and asked Xiaoqiong for her opinion, "Xiaoqiong, what do you think?"
Worried that Xiaoqiong would not want to go back, she immediately said: "Don't worry, my grandmother is in charge of the Hou Mansion.
With grandma protecting you, no one dares to bully you. "
"Thank you grandma for your kindness."
Xu Xiaoqiong said in a small voice, "I will follow my brother's arrangements."
Although she had to be separated from her brother for a while, Xu Xiaoqiong knew that his brother was doing it for her own good.
"grandmother."
Xu Xiaolei immediately said: "Thank you grandma for coming to see me and my sister. My grandson is grateful.
But my sister is weak and cannot travel long distances. We can go back to Kyoto first. "
He said so, but Mrs. Xu did not force it, "Okay, I will listen to my grandson.
Then you pack up and I'll take you back to Beijing as soon as possible. "
After all, Xiaoqiong was a granddaughter. Mrs. Xu didn't insist for long before she listened to Xu Xiaolei's words.
As long as the grandson comes back, it will be fine.
Jiang Wan saw it clearly, with sarcasm in her eyes, "Don't worry, Mrs. Xu, I will send someone to take care of Xiaoqiong."
"Your Majesty."
Mrs. Xu was really grateful, but it was also true that the Hou family was in decline. The gift she gave was a set of old-fashioned headdresses.
It was probably something she had worn when she was young. Jiang Wan could keep it in exchange for money, but she wouldn't wear it.
Seeing Madam Xu holding Xu Xiaolei and chatting affectionately, there was a moment of envy in Xiaoqiong's eyes.
But soon, Xu Xiaolei took the initiative and said: "Grandma, since we have agreed, we will not disturb the princess."
"Yes, yes, Xiaoqiong, grandma has booked a table of delicious food at the inn. Come on, grandma will take you to eat."
"Princess, Xiaoqiong will come back as soon as you go."
Xu Xiaoqiong is young but very sensible in front of Jiang Wan, who smiles and nods.
"With your grandmother and brother here, I can rest assured and have a good time."
"Thank you, Princess."
Xu Xiaoqiong jumped and followed Xu Xiaolei and the others away, and Mrs. Xu followed happily.
When they were far away, Qiuniang couldn't help complaining, "Mrs. Xu really treats her differently.
If Xiao Lei refused to go back, she would probably do everything she could. "
"Originally, what she was mainly looking for was her grandchildren."
Jiang Wan was noncommittal, and the carrier pigeon fell into her hands. After reading the contents of the letter, she suddenly realized.
"It turns out that Xiaoyao Hou's step-in-law's son fell into the water and drowned at the beginning of the year. He finally got pregnant and just had a miscarriage. He will not be able to have children in the future."
No wonder I wasn't in a hurry before, but now I'm so anxious to pick someone up.
"Then Xiaoyao Hou can still give birth?"
Qiuniang's face was filled with curiosity, and Jiang Wan snorted, "Maybe it's retribution.
The step-brother was resentful of the Marquis because he could not have a child, so he gave him the medicine to kill the child. "
No wonder the old lady said she had already disposed of her step-brother, and did not allow the Marquis to get close to her.
The Hou Mansion had been fighting for so long and ended up with no descendants. Only then did they think of Xu Xiaolei who was living outside.
Earlier, Mrs. Xu's favorite was probably the son born from Xiaoyao Hou's stepmother.
"Deserve it!"
Qiuniang snorted, "No wonder Xiaolei and Xiaoqiong don't want to go home. That's not home, it's clearly a den of jackals and tigers."
"Xiao Lei is a smart kid, he knows what to do."
Jiang Wan believed that Xu Xiaolei could handle this well, so she stood up and stretched.
"Come on, let's go for a walk."
Jiang Wan felt bored after being stuck in the palace all day, so she took Qiuniang out of the palace.
Song Jiuyuan's methods were good, and the people under Jiuzhou's governance lived and worked in peace and contentment. Jiang Wan clearly felt that everyone's happiness index had increased a lot.
She entered the restaurant and asked for a glass of warm juice. As soon as she sat down in the private room, she saw a family of three from the restaurant opposite.
Mrs. Xu was serving food to the two children with a happy face. Xu Xiaolei had a sullen face, but Xu Xiaoqiong was eating happily.
Jiang Wan was wearing a veil. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and suddenly heard the sound of a cup being thrown in the private room next door.
Jiang Wan frowned slightly. Qiuniang next to her went out for a while, then came in and said:
"Princess, the guests in the private room next to you should be from Kyoto."
"Come from Kyoto?"
Jiang Wan thought about the private room next to hers being side by side. She thought she could see the scene on the opposite side, and she made a guess in her heart.
"You draw attention to their movements."
"Yes, princess."
Qiuniang gave the order, and Jiang Wan took off her veil, took a slow sip of juice, and ate some snacks.
Until Qiuniang came in and said, "Princess, they are leaving."
"Ah."
Jiang Wan put on her veil and left the private room, just as someone from the private room next door came out.
The leader was a woman wearing a veil. Her exposed eyes were a bit mean, and her eyes were filled with anger.
Jiang Wan went downstairs with her at the same time, and she could vaguely see her holding the handkerchief tightly in her hand.
After getting on the carriage, Jiang Wan watched as the other party also got on the carriage, "Looks like there's something good to watch."
"princess."
Qiuniang reminded in a low voice: "Xiao Lei saw you."
"Ask Xiao Lei to come to the palace after he's done with his work."
Jiang Wan lowered the curtain of the carriage. Since the man had followed him to Jiuzhou, Xiao Lei and Xiao Qiong must be in danger.
Since he promised to protect them, Jiang Wan would not break his promise.
"Yes."
Qiuniang hurried over and whispered a few words into Xiaoqiong's ear before coming over.
Not long after they returned to the palace, Xu Xiaolei came back with Xu Xiaoqiong.
"princess."
"Does your father's step-brother have a mole between his eyebrows?"
Although it was not obvious, Jiang Wan saw it clearly, and Xu Xiaolei was surprised.
"How does the princess know?"
"If I'm not mistaken, I have already met her today."
Jiang Wan's words shocked Xu Xiaolei, and Xu Xiaoqiong was so scared that she shrank behind her brother.
"She...why is she here?"
Being bullied by the other party since she was a child, Xu Xiaoqiong has developed a conditioned reflex to be afraid when she is mentioned.
"She should have followed your grandmother quietly."
Jiang Wan handed the letter to Xu Xiaolei, "Reliable news is that her previous son drowned and can no longer be reborn."
