Not long after the Lu family's carriage left the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, Xiao Xier went to Shangguan Lan's room.
At this time, Shangguan Lan was having breakfast. When Nanny Yuan saw Xiao Xier coming, she turned around and went into the house to inform her.
"My Lady, Young Master Xi is here."
"Quick, get another set of bowls and chopsticks."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Xier walked in and bowed obediently, "Xiao Xi pays her respects to my great-grandmother. May you be blessed with good health."
"Sister Xi, come quickly. The shrimp porridge at the Duke of Huguo's mansion is delicious today. Try it."
When Xiao Xier saw Shangguan Lan handed the shrimp porridge to her mouth, she opened her mouth and ate the shrimp porridge.
“It tastes really good, very fragrant.”
Xiao Xier had saved some space to come and have breakfast with Shangguan Lan, and the two of them finished their breakfast happily.
Xiao Xier then told her the reason for her visit, "I dreamed of my grandmother yesterday. She said she missed you."
Shangguan Lan was surprised, "You dreamed of your grandmother, my daughter Shangguan Ruian?"
Xiao Xier nodded. "In the dream, she said she was Daddy's mother. She learned that you and your great uncles had all come to Beiyi and she missed you very much. She said she was doing well now and asked you to live a good life. However, I didn't see Grandmother's face clearly in the dream, so I can't be sure if she was Grandmother."
"Madame Yuan, quickly bring Ryan's portrait over here."
Nanny Yuan quickly brought out Shangguan Ruian's portrait and spread it out in front of Xiao Xier.
"Sister Xi, take a closer look. Is the person in your dream your grandmother?"
Xiao Xier compared the portrait of Shangguan Ruian in front of her with Gu Yunshu.
Although the portrait in front of me is a little distorted, it can be confirmed that Shangguan Ruian's face shape is the same as that of his beautiful sister.
Since the beautiful sister had her eyes closed, we could only see that her dark eyebrows were very similar to Shangguan Ruian's.
And there is a mask that is exactly the same as Master's.
And the fonts in her study...
The beautiful sister is most likely Shangguan Ruian.
Perhaps Shangguan Ruian was reborn just like her.
But it’s a little different. She was reborn as a child, and this body is still her own.
How could Shangguan Ruian be reborn in someone else?
Looking at her this way, it's unlikely that she is Shangguan Ruian.
It seems that I need to observe her more.
Seeing little Xi'er staring at the portrait in deep thought, not saying a word for a long time, Shangguan Lan became anxious. After waiting for less than half a minute, she asked, "Sister Xi, how is it? Was the woman who appeared in your dream last night your grandmother?"
"That woman looks very similar to the grandmother in the painting. She must be my grandmother."
Xiao Xier really hopes that the beautiful sister is Shangguan Ruian, so that the master will not end up living alone!
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Lan felt a little disappointed. Why didn't Ryan send her a dream?
She really wanted to see her daughter again in her dream. She hadn't dreamed of her daughter for more than 20 years.
"It's really Ryan. Tell me in detail, what did she say to you in the dream?"
"good!"
"Also, if Ryan appears in your dream again, you must tell her that I miss her very much and ask her to come to my dream..."
Xiao Xier coaxed Shangguan Lan for an hour before she escaped and returned to the main courtyard of Youhuang Courtyard. Su Xingyi had already returned and was massaging Xiao Lingyu's shoulders.
"Daddy, when will we return to the palace?"
"Stay one more night today, and we'll return to the palace after breakfast tomorrow."
Xiao Xier was delighted, "Daddy and Mommy, the weather is nice today. I want Yunshuang to take me for a walk in the street."
"Daddy is worried about you going out alone. After lunch, Daddy will take you for a walk in the street."
She hasn't confirmed who the beautiful sister is yet, so she can't let her father know.
"Mother needs you to accompany her now. I'm a big kid now and can go shopping on the street by myself. I have Yunshuang with me, and there are many little pets to protect me. I am safe. I'm going out now and have lunch at the restaurant outside."
"this……"
"Mom, I want to go out. I can do it alone, okay?"
Xiao Xier is not an ordinary person after all. "Okay, go ahead, and come back before 3 p.m."
"Thank you, mother."
After Xiao Xier finished speaking, she pulled Yunshuang and ran away, fearing that she was too slow and her parents would regret it again.
"Wait, you don't have any silver!"
"Mother, I have some banknotes on me..."
Xiao Lingyu could not hear the rest of the words, as Xiao Xier had already left Youhuang Courtyard.
"Nie Ying!"
"I'm here!"
"Send more people to follow you secretly, and don't let Xiao Xi'er find you."
"yes!"
No matter how capable Xiao Xier is, she is still a child in Su Xingyi's eyes and cannot be treated carelessly.
"Where are we going, young lady?"
Xiao Xier mentioned Xiangyun Street where the Gu family lived, so Yunshuang asked the driver to turn around and drive there.
When the carriage was halfway there, a little yellow oriole flew into the carriage.
Xiao Xier handed it a dish of tea, and the little oriole took a few sips.
[I just flew over from Jintai Tower. The woman went to the largest private room on the third floor of Jintai Tower. The owner of Jintai Tower brought her a stack of account books.]
Xiao Xi'er ventriloquized, "She's the owner of Jintai Tower?"
[That’s right, she is Gu Yunshu, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, the richest man in the capital. Her father injured his leg while traveling outside the capital for business three years ago. Now he can’t walk and his health is getting worse day by day. Gu Yunshu has taken over most of the Gu family’s business, which has delayed her marriage. The second branch of the Gu family has been plotting to frame Gu Yunshu for the past three years, trying every possible way to force her to marry so that they can take over the Gu family’s assets. If she hadn’t practiced martial arts since she was a child, she would have been assassinated long ago…]
No wonder she is so alert and carries an antidote bag with her. This is all experience gained from being persecuted.
"Sister Yunshuang, tell the driver to turn around. We're going to Jintailou for dinner."
