After rebirth, I will be the royal aunt to the scumbag

After hearing this, Xue Jinruo immediately came forward and held her hand: "What are you talking about? Although no one will be watching her for a while, Huarong will not change sides so easily. I’ll definitely pay attention, so just stay here with confidence.”

As she spoke, she didn't forget to pat Xiaoxia on the shoulder.

Although she didn't want all their efforts these days to be in vain, she also knew that Xiaoxia could no longer stay with Xue Xueyao in this state.

"Besides, she is probably thinking more about how to deal with Jiang Yunyun now, and has no time to do other things." Xue Jinruo hurriedly comforted her again, and then asked people to retreat.

A light flashed in her eyes.

Now that they knew Chang Geng's whereabouts, they had more leverage.

The next morning, Xue Xueyao came to have breakfast with Xue Jinruo, but she was naturally a weasel wishing a chicken a happy New Year. Although she didn't mention the tiger charm in a word, almost all her words were inquiring about the whereabouts of the tiger charm.

"Sister, where do you think dad usually puts his valuables?"

"Why are you asking these questions? Are you trying to make up your mind?"

"Sister is really joking. How dare I covet my father's things? I just want to see if I have some tacit understanding with my sister."

"That's it," Xue Jinruo chuckled upon hearing this, then took a sip of porridge and replied, "If I remember correctly, dad is used to putting valuable things in the ancestral hall."

Xiao Xia, who was next to her, took a step forward when she saw this. She just opened her mouth but before speaking, she saw Xue Jinruo making a silencing gesture to her behind her back.

Although she was very puzzled, Xiaoxia still silently retreated as she was told.

"No, no, no, sister remembered it wrong, I remember it was in..." Xue Xueyao smiled when she heard the words, but just halfway through her words, a look of pain appeared on her face. She changed her previous words and said: "Sister, eat slowly. I have some pain in my stomach. I need to go first..."

She skipped the rest of the words because after all, it was breakfast time.

"Do you need someone to follow you?" Xue Jinruo asked, holding back the smile on her face as she watched Xue Xueyao fleeing away.

"No... use." Xue Xueyao's long-sounding voice came from the distance.

Xue Jinruo shook his head and smiled, then continued to drink the white porridge in the bowl.

"Princess, the second lady clearly came here to inquire about information on purpose. You didn't notice such poor acting skills?" Xiao Xia looked at Xue Jinruo's unclear look and couldn't help but ask.

"You said it was clumsy, how could I not see it?" Xue Jinruo took a big mouthful of porridge and wiped the water from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and replied.

"Then why does the princess return it?" Monk Xiaoxia Zhanger was confused.

"Didn't I deliberately trick her?" Xue Jinruo responded with a smile.

Xiaoxia breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

While the two were joking, Xue Sijian came to the door with Xue Siliang. They didn't come empty-handed. They were followed by two servants carrying two boxes of betrothal gifts.

"Have you two brothers had breakfast?" Xue Jinruo asked when he saw the two people coming in and took two steps forward.

"I've already eaten, don't bother Jin'er to worry about it." Xue Sijian responded.

Xue Jinruo nodded, and then turned his attention to the betrothal gifts brought by the two people. After opening the box and taking a look, Xue Jinruo's expression became a little more solemn.

Although there are many kinds of things in the box, they are all ordinary things.

When Xue Siliang saw this, he poked Xue Sijian with his elbow. The latter took two steps forward and asked, "Jin'er, is there something wrong?"

"I think using these to propose marriage is disrespectful to the woman. Xiaoxia immediately went to prepare the six gifts." Xue Jinruo replied thoughtfully.

"Yes." Xiaoxia responded and hurried away.

This time Xue Siriang took the initiative to refuse: "How can I let you spend money on Jin'er? Call Xiaoxia back quickly."

Although Xue Siriang refused to let Xue Jinruo spend money, Xue Jinruo insisted on doing so.

"Second brother, by saying this, you treat me like an outsider, right?"

"of course not……"

"Then don't refuse. You can't write two characters of "Xue" in one sentence, and the family doesn't speak the same language."

Seeing Xue Jinruo talking like this, Xue Siriang couldn't refuse anymore.

While Xiaoxia was preparing the six rituals, Xue Jinruo asked about their current official positions.

"I wonder what the official positions of your two brothers are?"

"Now we have all entered the Hanlin Academy, but all we do is copying work. We can see the end at a glance and there is no future." Xue Sijian sighed and replied.

Xue Jinruo reminded him seriously: "As the saying goes, if you don't accumulate small steps, you won't reach a thousand miles; if you don't accumulate small streams, you won't build a river. Brother, you should not belittle yourself. Only by doing small things well can you achieve big things."

Xue Sijian felt that his sister had grown up again, and couldn't help but laugh.

Who would have thought that when the three brothers and sisters were talking about it, Xue Xueyao appeared again.

She was holding a saucer in her hand, her eyes were reddish, and her lips were a little pale, and she looked like she had been wronged.

Xue Jinruo didn't want to pay attention at first, but he was afraid that she would talk nonsense, so he could only take the initiative to speak: "Didn't you feel unwell just now and left? Why did you come back suddenly, but you are already well?"

"Sister, don't worry about me. I just heard that the two brothers are here, so I wanted to come over and talk together." Everything is fine here, but there is no one who can talk to me about myself. My sister is busy with work, so my two brothers must take time to come and accompany me."

Xue Sijian was already a careful person, but now seeing her like this, he couldn't help but ask, "Have you just cried?"

"No...no..." Xue Xueyao ducked back almost subconsciously, but she didn't expect that the bruises on her face would just happen to be exposed.

She immediately stretched out her hand to block it, letting everyone see more clearly.

Xue Sijian immediately stood up, reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulled it out, and saw the slap mark on her face clearly. He suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "What's going on?"

Xue Xueyao felt aggrieved instantly.

She didn't speak, but focused her gaze on Xue Jinruo.

Seeing this scene, Xue Jinruo knew that he couldn't hide from it, so he quickly said: "Xue Yao and Miss Jiang had some small conflicts in the past two days, and then the traces were left. I have asked the doctor to take a look, and I have been painting them for two or three days. The medicine won’t leave any scars.”

Although Xue Sijian looked calm, he was a little bit out of sorts when it came to matters involving his own family.

He couldn't help but frown: "Appearance is the most important thing for a woman. What kind of conflict caused the other party to be so cruel? Jin'er, you are also the regent princess now, don't you just ignore it? ”.
