Chapter 220: Recognizing her as my granddaughter upon meeting her
A light green handkerchief embroidered with lotus flowers swayed in Xiao Tangbao's hand.
Like a graceful lotus, swaying in the wind among the green leaves.
The lotus flowers are also embroidered, with the heights clearly visible.
Whether it is color matching or embroidery, there is simply no comparison.
The smug expression on Chunya's face froze.
Little Tangbao turned over his little hand, revealing the other side.
What’s strange is that the other side is embroidered with plum blossoms.
The red plum blossoms with green calyxes are lifelike and bloom in the wind.
Chunya's stiff expression turned into shock.
She had never known that it was possible to embroider different patterns on both sides.
Of course, not only had she never seen this kind of embroidery, she had also never seen the material of the handkerchief.
"Cousin, which one is embroidered better?" Little Tangbao asked innocently.
Chunya's face suddenly turned red.
Is there any need to ask?
Anyone with eyes can tell which one is embroidered better.
"Of course my cousin is better." Chunya said embarrassedly.
The handkerchief in my hand can never be given away again.
Xiao Tangbao didn't want to do this at first.
After all, how could she, such a well-behaved and sensible baby, do something like slapping someone in the face?
But this cousin is really restless.
They have a second sister-in-law in the family, so it's okay if she occasionally stirs up trouble.
I really can't have another person adding fuel to the fire by being the second sister-in-law's temptation.
Mrs. Su glanced at Chunya and said, "Thank you for your kindness, cousin. I never accept things given by others. You should keep your handkerchief for yourself."
After saying that, he took Xiao Tangbao to the backyard.
She also disliked this cousin from the bottom of her heart.
She has none of the modesty of a girl, which makes people feel frivolous.
Chunya pressed on, "Who embroidered your handkerchief, cousin? Such skill is truly enviable."
After saying that, he stared at the handkerchief in Xiao Tangbao's hand, as if he wanted to take it and have a look at it.
"This handkerchief, my dear sister-in-law, was a reward from the palace. It is certainly incomparable to ordinary ones." Mrs. Su said.
There was a rare hint of pride in his tone.
When talking about her sister-in-law, even the simple Mrs. Su can't help but feel proud.
"A reward from the palace?" Chunya's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said eagerly, "I guess the palace has given me a lot of good things as a reward? I wonder if..."
"Chunya!"
Grandma Du's stern voice sounded behind Chunya, interrupting Chunya's words.
Spring buds look back.
"Grandma, what's wrong?"
"Let your cousin's wife and your cousin go and do their work. You go into the house and massage grandma's legs." Grandma Du said.
"Grandma, wait a minute, I..."
"What's wrong? Grandma can't make you do anything?" Grandma Du's face darkened and she said, "Follow Grandma into the house!"
After saying that, he turned and walked into the house.
Chunya pouted and followed Grandma Du unwillingly.
Little Tangbao looked at Grandma Du's back and felt that his grandma should be a sensible person.
"Alas! Our grandmother is a good person, and she really loves our mother." Sister Su suddenly sighed and said, "Back then, our family was poor. After your third brother was injured, our grandmother wanted to marry our eldest cousin Chunmiao to us. But our eldest aunt refused to agree. She despised our family's poverty and came to our mother to make a scene. She was so angry that she fell ill. A few days later, your third brother..."
Mrs. Su paused when she said this.
Why is she saying these things to her little aunt, a little girl?
However, if my eldest cousin had really married me, I'm afraid my third brother would not have left home, right?
Xiao Tangbao didn't expect that there would be such gossip.
"Sister-in-law, our family will get better and better." Little Tangbao waved his little fist, "Then let Auntie regret it!"
Humph! How dare you make her mother sick?
Aunt, you have been blacklisted by me.
Mrs. Su couldn't help but laugh when she saw Xiao Tangbao like this.
"Well! My aunt is right. Let my aunt regret it!" Sister-in-law Su smiled and agreed with her sister-in-law.
The aunt and sister-in-law get along happily.
In order to reassure his sister-in-law, Xiao Tangbao followed Sister-in-law Su closely.
Even when Wangcai and a group of his younger brothers came to ask Xiao Tangbao to go out and play, Xiao Tangbao did not go.
As for the big house, Xiao Tangbao did take the time to go there.
When Xiao Tangbao arrived, Xuanyuan Jin's fever had subsided and he was talking to the old general.
"Are you Fuya?" The old general smiled and waved when he saw little Tangbao, "Come here quickly, let grandpa see you."
"Hello, Grandpa."
Little Tangbao walked over obediently and said hello.
The old general looked at little Tangbao carefully, and became more and more satisfied.
"Fuya, grandpa will recognize you as his granddaughter, okay?" said the old general.
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
Why do you want to recognize your relationship as soon as you meet?
"Grandpa, you..." Xuanyuan Jin was stunned.
The old general waved his hand and said, "Fuya's elder brother saved my life. I adopt Fuya as my granddaughter to repay her elder brother for saving my life."
Xuanyuan Jin, "..."
This reason sounds reasonable at first glance.
But if you think about it carefully, there is a big problem.
Xiao Tangbao's face turned black.
Adopting her as a granddaughter is a way to repay her elder brother for saving his life?
Little Tangbao smiled with his eyes curved, and said in a tender voice: "Grandpa, it was my eldest brother who saved you, so you just need to repay him. You can give him gold or silver. After all, my life must be very valuable. If you don't give a penny, it will seem that my life is worthless. The more you give, the more noble you will seem. Yes, the more the better..."
As for not having to repay, Xiao Tangbao will definitely not say it.
After all, she wasn't the one who saved him, so she couldn't make the decision for her elder brother.
It's easy to imagine that her elder brother is honest and kind, and he will definitely not seek repayment for any favor.
It’s just that this old general is really bad at speaking.
The attitude is too high.
Xiao Tangbao thought that since this grandfather was so high and mighty, let's use gold and silver to measure his life-saving grace.
Simple and affordable.
The old general seemed to have not expected that Xiao Tangbao would say this, and was stunned for a moment.
How come this is different from what he thought?
Why does this little girl keep asking for gold and silver?
Although he would definitely give these things, compared to these red and white items, the title of General Shenwu's granddaughter should be more important.
There are countless families in the capital who are trying every possible way to establish a relationship with the general's mansion.
If I became his granddaughter, my status would skyrocket.
"Fuya likes gold and silver very much?" asked the old general.
"Of course I like it." Little Tangbao nodded seriously, "People say that those who don't like it are fools. Don't you think Grandpa doesn't like it?"
The old general, “…”
How should he answer this?
A strange feeling surged in the old general's heart.
Could it be that the little girl is trying to be roundabout and say that he is a fool?
Xuanyuan Jin immediately understood that his grandfather had made the little girl unhappy.
"Tangbao, grandpa doesn't mean that." Xuanyuan Jin said helplessly: "Grandpa likes you, so he wants to recognize you as his granddaughter."
The old general looked at his grandson and suddenly understood.
It turns out that he doesn't know how to speak and offended the little girl.
"Hahaha... what a naughty little girl." The old general laughed. "Grandpa was speechless just now. Fuya, don't blame Grandpa. Jin'er is right. Grandpa likes Fuya, so he wants to adopt Fuya as his granddaughter."
