"Grandfather, Prince Xiao is here to see you." The sound outside the door brought the old general back to his senses.

"Why is he here at this hour?" The old general thought he would come, but he didn't expect him to come in the evening.

"Grandfather, I'm afraid you're here for marriage!" Wen Jiu said softly.

"Remember, for the time being, you cannot tell anyone who your master is. It is better to keep it a secret. The overall situation is still unclear, so you cannot reveal too much."

"Yes, Jiuer will remember it." But let's take a look at what kind of person this prince is?

"Okay, you guys go down first! Bring the prince to the study."

Everyone went out and locked the door.

"Wine..."

"Uncles, don't worry about me. Everything I do is to protect the Su family."

"Uncle is not doubting your intentions, but the Grand Tutor has always been strict. We were wondering how much you have suffered. Now he has passed away, and we have not yet thanked him for raising you and saving your life."

"Uncle, don't think about it. It's not hard. Master treats me very well."

"How can it be good? He has such a stubborn and hard temper..."

"Third brother,"

"Brother, look at Jiu'er. His small body must be from years of malnutrition. It looks like he will fall down if the wind blows." Su Luobai was so distressed.

Su Chenyan disagreed. Although the Grand Master had a bad temper, all his students were excellent. It was said that he trained both civil and military talents. Moreover, Jiu'er was his only female disciple, so it was impossible for him not to teach her kung fu... So Jiu'er probably had some kung fu skills.

The third brother is such a fool. Hey, seeing his niece is so smart, he can't help but worry. As the old saying goes, too much wisdom will lead to harm. He thought to himself that he should take good care of her and let her not get involved in the affairs of the court. This will definitely be beneficial to her. He couldn't help but look towards the study...

"The master has had his meal."

"Go, go."

No one knows what the old general discussed with Prince Xiao. But during the meal, he seemed very unhappy, and the person who made him angry was stunned for a moment after seeing the warm wine, and the corners of his lips raised, as if he had discovered something interesting.

"Prince Xiao, dinner is ready. Please have dinner before leaving." The old general thought that he would not stay with the attitude he had just shown.

"Okay, thank you for your hospitality, General. I would be very sorry to refuse."

What a mess! The old general was confused. What was going on? Shouldn't he have said he would not bother him anymore? Instead, he stayed.

The old general's face twitched, and he asked for more bowls and chopsticks. At the table, people came and went, and it was inevitable that they would exchange a few pleasantries.

"Is this the old general's granddaughter?" Xiao Jue asked, looking at the warm wine in front of him, as if waiting for her answer.

"......"

"Miss Wen?"

"Don't talk when eating and don't talk when sleeping" Wen Jiu's words made Xiao Jue speechless

Sharp-tongued

"It's just that Miss Wen looks similar to the chivalrous knight I met in the woods that day, so I must have made a mistake!" Xiao Jue said nonchalantly.

"That girl..."

"Wenjiu, my name is Wenjiu" Wenjiu interrupted him quickly. Her first thought was that she was exposed, and she clenched her chopsticks tightly.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Jue lost interest in teasing her and exchanged pleasantries with the old general.

The Su family looked at each other, and the old lady told them to eat quickly.

The dinner ended with toasts and exchanges of wine. Before leaving, Xiao Jue said to the old general, "I have changed my mind." After saying that, he glanced at the warm wine and left.

The old general waited until he reacted and angrily called him "monkey".

"Grandpa, the young master is here to pick up the young lady."

"Let him in! She will be the lady of the general's mansion in the future, just call her Miss." The old general really gave his favor to this cousin, oh no, Miss.

"Grandfather, uncles, cousin, hello, I'm here to take Wenjiu back." When Wen Xi said this, the three teenagers frowned. Wenjiu? Shouldn't they call her sister? They were immediately displeased.

"Mrs. Wen really took good care of my cousin, you can see that," Su Jinxiu said coldly.

"Cousin, okay, we won't go in. I'll come back in two days. Please tell grandma." Wen Jiu wanted to take this cheap brother away quickly to avoid angering everyone.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Your grandmother hasn't met him yet. She should meet him. Come in."

“It’s my grandfather.”

"What does he look like? He's hunched over. I don't like him."

"I think the lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion deliberately made him useless. After all, she has a son of her own."

"Okay, you two, talk less, Jiu'er might hear you later," Su Jinyu interrupted them.

"Wen Xi has met her grandmother and two aunts."

"Good boy, good-looking, handsome, with a straight back." The old lady also knew that the Prime Minister's Mansion would not treat him well, and she felt more distressed.

"My grandson is here to take my sister Wenjiu home. The four of us brothers and sisters will come to visit our grandfather, grandmother, uncles and aunts some other day."

"Four?"

Everyone was stunned

"Yes, I have my younger brother Mo Liang and my younger sister Zi Qi at home. There will be more people at that time, and we can have fun with our cousins."

"That's not necessary. You can come whenever you want in the future. You don't need to bring them here. You can come anytime, sister. Aunt's yard is reserved for you. Go back. Next time, ask for a few more days off from your elders to stay for a while." Su Jinxiu didn't give Wen Xi any face. He could see that Wen Xi really couldn't tell the difference between relatives and strangers. There was no need to make friends with them. Those two wanted to get close to each other, but it was impossible...

Wen Xi's visit this time was also instructed by Madam Wen. He quickly said, "We are all family. We will become close after getting to know each other better. Cousin, let's go play polo in a few days."

"I want to review my studies" Su Jinyu

"I want to practice martial arts" Su Jinmu

"I want...I don't have time" Su Jinxiu

"Grandma"

"I'm old"

Wen Xi looked at his two uncles

"We serve"

"Grandfather, grandmother, we're going back first. I'll come back another day. I want to eat more Eight Treasures Duck. I'll eat two." Wen Jiu quickly pulled the old lady's hand and shook it, saying coquettishly.

"You, little greedy cat, take your gifts and go. The general's mansion will take care of your clothes from now on. Next time I see you not dressed like a legitimate lady, I will go to the prime minister's mansion to ask you about it." The old lady said kindly and dotingly while touching the warm wine.

"Yes, Jiu'er, I will ask the carriage to take the things your aunt prepared for you. No, mother, let me tell you." Qin leaned over and whispered a few words in the old lady's ear, and heard the old lady say "excellent"

"Take the gift for meeting you first. Tomorrow I will give you the birthday gifts for the past ten years. Of course, Xi'er will also have one."

"Thank you, aunt. Let's go back first. Grandpa and grandma, have a good rest. You have worked hard all day." After warming the wine, he bowed.

"Okay, go back and come visit me often."

"must"

"Brothers, I'm going back. I'll come back when I have time. Xuan Ling is gone."

"Okay Miss" holds the greeting gifts from several parents.

"But..." Su Jinxiu was covered by his aunt before he could finish his words.

"Send it to the Prime Minister's Mansion in a grand ceremony tomorrow and publicize it widely. The Prime Minister's Mansion's daughter is dressed simply and does not have a single valuable pearl or hairpin on her body. Do you understand?"

"Aunt is so smart!" Su Jinxiu gave a thumbs up

Qin thought: That's right, the Su family only has this one girl, so she has to be pampered.
