[Red Mansion] Jia Lian, son of a family

Chapter 39

"That's it..." Mei Xiruo frowned in distress, then nodded heavily, "I see, Seventh Cousin."

"Xi Ruo is so good." The seventh prince touched the little girl's head, got up and took his hand, walked to the stone table and sat down, with a gentler smile on his face, "Do you want to eat anything else? Your ninth cousin I prefer sweeter pastries, how about you?"

The young girl's gentle voice obviously won the little girl's love, because the smile on her face became sweeter: "As long as Xi Ruo likes the cakes, it's because mother never let Xi Ruo eat too sweet cakes," she pouted. She touched her bun-like cheeks with her mouth, and said with some distress, "Mother said that if Xi Ruo continues to be a sweet food, the flesh on this face will not disappear, let alone it will increase. In this way, Xi Ruo It's not pretty anymore."

The Seventh Prince didn't expect Mei Xiruo, who was obviously a little girl with the appearance of a little bean, to pursue her appearance. After a moment of stunned, she laughed again: "Xiruo is still young, so she doesn't have to be pretty, just be cute. Wait for Xiruo When she grows up, she will be a beautiful girl."

"But the seventh cousin, my mother often said that Xi Ruo is already a big girl, and she has to be sensible and obedient." The cousin of the queen's aunt's family said something different from her own mother, and Mei Xiruo didn't know who to listen to. is better.

"Hehe." The Seventh Prince coaxed the little cousin who met for the first time in a good-tempered manner, "Compared to the little baby Xiruo who had to be hugged and fed by adults before, she is a big girl, but compared to the cousin who is about the same age as her cousin Girl, isn't Xiruo still a child?"

Standing at the corner of Wanrui Pavilion, Jia Lian was only horrified by this seemingly warm and loving scene, that the Seventh Prince has such a loving side!The corners of his eyes twitched and he had to continue to lower his head carefully to hide his expression. On the surface, Zhilan Yushu's gentle and elegant future Emperor Zhaoming's essence is completely different from his appearance. It was after taking the position that he acted vigorously and wiped out the nobles in the capital!

However, the Seventh Prince's attitude towards Mei Xiruo was so kind and gentle, which made Jia Lian even more urgent towards Mei Xiruo, but at the same time, he also secretly became vigilant.Situ Yuan valued Mei Xiruo so much, if he could really marry Mei Xiruo in the future, while his official career would be smooth, he would have to be more careful with his wife.

Of course, it's useless for Jia Lian to be careless, the warning from the system before was still hanging over his head.

And when Jia Lian thought that he might have only one woman in the future, he secretly looked at Mei Xiruo with sharper eyes.The little girl is only three years old now, although it is not clear whether she will become a peerless beauty in the future, but her appearance is definitely not bad, at least not much worse than Wang Xifeng in her previous life.

In this way, the big stone in Jia Lian's heart finally fell a little bit, at least it's not too bad to spend a lifetime with such a wife.Thinking this way, he never thought that he and Mei Xiruo are now less than six years old and the other more than three years old, whether they can really become husband and wife is still unknown.

Now that Mei Xiruo has been placed in the position of future wife unconsciously, Jia Lian's attitude has also changed a little.He looked at the Seventh Prince with vague dissatisfaction, that is his future wife, okay, even if the Seventh Prince is his cousin, don't act so intimately!

Cousin and cousin are the most dangerous relationship. Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu in the previous life are the most typical representatives.

Now Jia Lian is a measured person, so neither the Seventh Prince nor the Ninth Prince noticed his dissatisfaction.Her cheeks puffed up under the feeding of her two cousins, and she managed to swallow the food in her mouth. Her eyes were moist and she said: "Seventh cousin, ninth cousin, Xi Ruo is full."

These pastries are delicious, but being fed like this by two cousins, even the most delicious food is not delicious!Touching her chubby belly, Mei Xiruo decided to leave Wan Rui Pavilion quickly.Mother will be very angry when she sees her like this, and keeps saying that she is not a lady at all.

The Seventh Prince did not ignore Mei Xiruo's rolling eyes several times: "Want to continue visiting the Imperial Garden?"

Mei Xiruo nodded hurriedly.In fact, this imperial garden is not much different from the garden of Cheng'en Gong's Mansion of the Mei family, the only difference is that all the precious exotic flowers and plants are planted.But being able to leave is what Mei Xiruo wants most, even if she continues to visit this imperial garden that means little to her, it doesn't matter.

"In this way, can the Seventh Cousin get someone to accompany you?" The Seventh Prince continued to lure the little girl with his gentle smile, "Only Hong He will follow you, Seventh Cousin is not very relieved."

If Mei Xi thought of the group of people following Hong He and her, she could only respond with "hehe" when she said to Situ Yuan, "Only Hong He is worried".Even though she's still young, she's not so easy to fool around. Cousin Seven obviously has some arrangements!

It's just that she was in a hurry to leave here, and because of her grandfather's and father's orders before leaving the Mei Mansion, she could only nod obediently: "I have Lao Qi cousin."

"You're welcome, Xi Ruo is really a good boy." The Seventh Prince smiled, then raised his hand to Jia Lian who was in the corner, "Jia Lian, you are about the same age as Xi Ruo's cousin, let's go shopping with her in the Royal Garden. I'll be tired after a while. , and send her back to the queen mother’s palace.”

Jia Lian, who already knew it in his heart, immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands: "Yes."

Then he walked to Mei Xiruo's side, raised his left hand forward: "Miss Mei, please."

After blinking at the boy who suddenly came to her, Mei Xiruo whispered, "I'm sorry for your inconvenience, Mr. Jia."

Mother mentioned the purpose of entering the palace today, but she only vaguely understood what mother said, but she still knew that this Jia Lian was probably her husband-in-law candidate.Mei Xiruo frowned sadly, she didn't quite understand what a husband-in-law is.Could it be that what Bai Lu said was true, a boy who would play games with her for the rest of his life?

By the way, Bailu is Mrs. Mei's maidservant next to Mei Xiruo, who is ten years older than Mei Xiruo.

And Jia Lian was stunned when he heard the name "Master Jia". In his previous life, he had been called "Second Master Lian", and no one had ever called him Mr. Jia so politely.

After leaving Wan Ruiting and never seeing her again, Mei Xiruo, who walked lightly and regularly, jumped up immediately.For her behavior, Jia Lian was only a little surprised and then laughed.It seems that even the daughter of a scholarly background is not as well behaved as he imagined.But yes, but at the age of more than three years old, if he really wants to be as rigid as those nuns, he probably won't be able to bear such a wife.

It's just that Mei Xiruo obviously still looked like a good and elegant young lady in front of the prince, so she left and didn't want to become like this in front of him.This shows that if Meixi really doesn't regard Jia Lian as an outsider, or does he just think that Jia Lian is nothing?

If it was the former, Jia Lian would be delighted, but if it was the latter...

Jia Lian didn't know anything about this disguised blind date before, and he guessed that Mei Xiruo probably didn't know either.After all, can a child who is only three years old understand what a blind date means?Jia Lian originally thought so, but after Mei Xiruo opened his mouth, he realized that his thinking was too simple.

I saw Mei Xiruo bouncing in front of him for a while, then suddenly returned to him and looked up at him, and asked in her clear and soft voice: "Young Master Jia, you are the one that mother said The one who might become my future husband?"

If Meixi said this, not only did Jia Lian feel a little unacceptable, but Hong He also shook her body several times.The little girl didn't understand how strong her own words were, but could Jia Lian and Hong He not understand.It's just that this little girl is very smart, how can such a thing be asked in public!

Hong Lian looked around, and fortunately, those who came out with Mei Xiruo were all Queen Mei's confidantes, and what Mei Xiruo said just now should not be revealed.Although Jia's family is nothing in the capital, Jia Daishan's popularity in the army cannot be underestimated.It's okay for Jia Lian to be the companion of the Ninth Prince, but if he has anything to do with the Seventh Prince's natal family, wouldn't he put the Empress and the Seventh Prince on the fire together!

She waved her bare hands lightly, and the maids, eunuchs and nuns who had surrounded Mei Xiruo, together with herself, immediately spread out in the imperial garden, the distance was just right.If Jia Lian and Mei Xiruo's voices were not loud, they could only vaguely hear them, and if someone approached them, they would be able to spot them immediately.

The dispersal of these people made no difference to Jia Lian. Although he couldn't do what the system said that no movement within a radius of a hundred miles would escape his ears, at least the radius of a hundred meters was within his alert range.Even though he didn't think there was anything unsightly about the conversation between him and Mei Xiruo, he still subconsciously lowered his voice.Obviously, the same is true for Mei Xiruo.

"Master Jia, can't you answer my question?" Mei Xiruo tilted her head and looked at Jia Lian with puzzled and ignorant eyes. Jia Lian, who has never had a good temper with children, couldn't help but feel so cute because of her cute appearance. trembling.

"Hmm." Touching his nose, a hint of helplessness appeared on Jia Lian's usually elegant face when he was outside, "Miss Mei, if I have not misunderstood, I am probably the one who may become Miss Mei's husband." He He won't admit that he is the lolicon that the system teased, but Mei Xiruo is too cute, that's why he is not so defensive.

The hard-spoken Jia Lian forgot that when he faced his daughter Qiaojie in his previous life, he didn't have such a wavering situation like now.

"That's it." Mei Xiruo suddenly raised her face and nodded seriously, "So you will care about me, love me, spoil me, and play games with me for the rest of your life just like Bai Lu said."

Jia Lian didn't know what expression to put on when he heard the words, so he coughed: "Miss Mei, who is this egret?"

"She is my big maid. But my mother said that she can't serve me for too long, and she will get married in a year or two." Mei Xiruo didn't reveal anything to a stranger she met for the first time. Too much awareness.

In her heart, her mother said that Jia Lian might be her future husband-in-law, and in Bailu's mouth, her husband-in-law was someone who would play with her for the rest of her life, and her cousin said that he was not an outsider, so naturally she told him these things. It's nothing.
