Chapter 746 Aunt, Someone Wants to Harm You
Mo Yingxue thought for a moment and said, "Because I like it."
She casually took off a gold necklace from her neck and handed it to Jiaojiao, saying, "Look at this, it's so golden and looks so beautiful when you wear it."
The little girl nodded and agreed: "It looks good."
Mo Yingxue curved her eyebrows, put the necklace on her neck, and said, "If you like it, I'll give it to you. There are plenty of such things in my aunt's palace.
Whenever you want something in the future, just come to your aunt.
If there is nothing in Auntie's palace, I will take you to Empress Li's place. She doesn't like these things, and there are many beautiful head ornaments in the storeroom."
When Jiaojiao heard this, her face turned as pale as a little bitter melon.
She didn't say anything, just stared at Mo Yingxue with wide eyes.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like he likes it very much.
Mo Yingxue's eyes were filled with annoyance, and she muttered to herself, "This shouldn't be the case. How could there be a little girl who doesn't like this kind of golden jewelry?
I must have been in a hurry today and didn’t choose well. I didn’t pick the style that Jiaojiao liked.”
Jiaojiao blinked at her, clearly wanting to say something.
Mo Yingxue patted her little head and said proudly, "It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't like it.
I have a lot of these things at my aunt's place. After you finish dinner with your grandfather, I'll take you to pick some.
Jiaojiao, what does that look mean? Are you looking down on your aunt?
Although I don’t have as many treasures as your grandmother, I still have one of the best treasures in the palace.”
When she talked about this, she felt a little proud.
Her father, the emperor, and her mother were always frugal in their daily lives, but they were extremely generous to their daughter. From childhood to adulthood, as long as she wanted something, they would give it to her.
Even if it is just mentioned casually and is not something she really wants, it will appear in front of her in a few days.
Because of her father's favoritism, her sisters disliked her when she was a child. On the surface, they called her sister, but privately they were unwilling to play with her at all.
They even spoke ill of her behind her back. They had spared no effort to spread her reputation of being arrogant and domineering over the years.
But she doesn't care.
She is loved by her father, the emperor, and her mother, the empress, and is also a legitimate princess. What doesn’t she want?
What's the use of just reputation, no matter how good it is.
The second elder sister had a good reputation. She was married off by our father as soon as she came of age. Not only did she give birth to two children three years after the marriage, but her husband also kept a mistress outside without her knowledge.
If it were someone else, the concubine would have been sold out long ago.
But her second sister, in order to maintain her reputation as a virtuous and generous person, actually took the initiative to help her husband take a concubine.
Yes, the people did praise her and praised the royal family for having a virtuous princess, but who cared about her when she cried behind closed doors?
What a bullshit reputation! She doesn't want to put herself in a difficult position for that.
Mo Yingxue was just thinking about taking out all the treasures in the bottom of the box in the evening and letting Jiaojiao choose carefully, when she suddenly realized that the room was too quiet.
No matter how happy the little girl is, she shouldn't be so happy that she can't speak, right?
Realizing that something was wrong, Mo Yingxue looked at Jiaojiao again and found that her little face was frighteningly red.
There was more panic in her eyes. She grabbed the little girl's hand and said hurriedly: "Jiaojiao, what's wrong with you? Don't scare your aunt!"
Jiaojiao blushed and finally managed to utter, "Chen."
"Shen?" Mo Yingxue reacted belatedly and quickly took off the collar from her neck.
The moment it was taken off, most of the color disappeared from Jiaojiao's face.
Mo Yingxue saw this and felt very disappointed.
What a fool she was. She had just thought that the little girl's blushing was due to her being too happy. After making such a fuss for so long, she actually felt that she was blushing because she couldn't breathe.
It almost caused a disaster!
The more Mo Yingxue thought about it, the more frightened she became. She quickly reached out and touched Jiaojiao's head, mumbling, "Jiaojiao, does it hurt? Where does it hurt? Tell your auntie quickly."
The little girl looked at her and said faintly, "Auntie, someone wants to harm you."
She pointed at the collar on the bed and said with a pout, "Jiaojiao almost died."
Hearing her voice, Mo Yingxue burst into laughter. "You kid, don't talk about death or not. Don't say such unlucky words."
The little girl still insisted: "Auntie, someone must want to harm you."
Afraid that Mo Yingxue wouldn't believe it, she added, "Once Jiaojiao puts this thing on, she won't be able to speak."
She pushed the collar outwards with a look of disgust, and when she saw it wasn't far enough, she even tried to kick it.
Mo Yingxue quickly grabbed it and said, "Grandfather, this thing is very valuable. You can't kick it."
"Oh." The little girl kicked her toes unwillingly, clearly showing disgust.
Seeing how precious Mo Yingxue was, she tilted her head and asked, "Auntie, is this valuable?"
"Of course!" Mo Yingxue said proudly, "How could something your aunt carefully selected be bad?"
Jiaojiao asked again: "How many candied haws can I buy?"
Mo Yingxue had eaten a lot of candied haws when she sneaked out of the palace in the past, so she knew their price.
But if you compare the two, she will be really stumped.
This... this is simply incomparable!
Seeing Mo Yingxue hesitating, Jiaojiao thought it was worthless and said with little interest, "I can't even buy a candied haws. No."
Her monthly allowance was enough to buy many strings of candied haws, but this thing was surprisingly heavy and worthless.
Even if it's for my mother, I'm afraid she would...
"Who said we can't buy candied haws?" Mo Yingxue looked at the little girl with a look of disgust and suddenly laughed out of anger.
She snorted softly and said, "Just the gold pendant on it is enough to buy a whole yard of candied haws."
Jiaojiao's eyes widened when she heard that.
Looking at the countless gold pendants of all sizes hanging there, her eyes became brighter and brighter.
Mo Yingxue saw something and said deliberately, "Such a good treasure, if it were someone else, I wouldn't even let him take a look at it.
It’s just as well that you don’t like it, so I won’t have to regret it later.”
Jiaojiao blurted out: "I like it!"
"But didn't you just say..."
"Aunt is a stingy person."
Mo Yingxue: "..."
This little girl, is she trying to provoke her here?
She just doesn't buy it!
Before she could speak, the little girl rolled her eyes and decisively threw herself into her arms, saying coquettishly, "Good aunt, aunt is the best."
Mo Yingxue snorted softly, "Snobbish little thing, didn't you just say I was a bad aunt and that you didn't want to be friends with me anymore?"
Being brought up with the past, Jiaojiao felt embarrassed and rubbed against her arms, whispering: "Auntie, don't be angry, Jiaojiao was wrong"
Mo Yingxue suppressed her laughter and asked, "What did you say? Speak louder. I didn't hear you."
When Jiaojiao heard this, she felt even more embarrassed, and her little face turned as red as a ripe apple.
She bit her lip and finally said, "Aunt, don't be angry. Jiaojiao knows she is wrong."
Mo Yingxue was not really angry. Seeing the little girl's sincere attitude, she felt relieved and strange for a moment.
Her little niece is usually the most mischievous and often plays tricks, so why is she admitting her mistake so readily now?
