Chapter 278: Secretly Glancing at Su Laowu
Wang Zhong held the tea tray, looked at Xiao Tangbao with a smile, and said, "Tangbao, it's time to serve tea to the young master."
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
He looked at Xuanyuan Jin in surprise.
Why do you have to offer tea to the little brother?
Could it be that... I have to kneel down too?
Little Tangbao was very upset.
"Just serve it to the young master." Wang Zhong seemed to understand what Xiao Tangbao meant and said with a smile.
So that’s it, Xiao Tangbao breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, have some tea."
Xiao Tangbao gave the box to Old Lady Su, then picked up the teacup and placed it in front of Xuanyuan Jin.
There were stars shining in Xuanyuan Jin's eyes and the corners of his mouth were raised high.
Anyone could see that he was very happy at the moment.
"Um."
Xuanyuan Jin took the tea and took a sip.
"This is for you. It's given to you by your brother."
Xuanyuan Jin said this as he took an exquisite mahogany carved box from the servant beside him and handed it to Xiao Tangbao.
"Thank you, brother...ah!"
Before Xiao Tangbao could finish his words, the box in his hand almost fell to the ground.
There was no way. The box given by the old general was light, and she thought this box would not be too heavy.
Who knew, this box is so heavy.
Of course, this is only for her.
It's because she is young and weak.
Xuanyuan Jin seemed to have forgotten this as well, and upon seeing this, he hurriedly helped Xiao Tangbao hold up the box.
"Brother, it's so heavy, what's inside?" Little Tangbao asked curiously.
"Just open it and you'll know." Xuanyuan said.
There was a hint of hope and encouragement in his eyes.
"good."
Little Tangbao opened the box curiously.
Then--
The corners of his mouth twitched.
The box was full of small stones.
"Brother, this is..." picked up by the river?
However, these small stones are colorful and beautiful.
"This is the Night Star Stone. If you inlay it around your bed curtains or on the roof, it will emit colorful lights at night..."
"Wow!" Little Tangbao's face was full of surprise.
This way, she can lie in bed and look at the stars.
Moreover, they are colorful stars.
It turns out that it was not in vain that I recognized this brother, and it was not in vain that I offered him tea.
At this time, a servant came in to report that County Magistrate Zheng and his family had arrived.
The old general nodded and asked to bring the person in.
Soon, County Magistrate Zheng's plump figure appeared at the door.
However, behind him, besides Madam Zheng and Zheng Yuanzheng, there was also a girl with bright eyes and white teeth.
County Magistrate Zheng and his family first saluted the old general.
Then, County Magistrate Zheng smiled and said, "Congratulations, General... I am late, please forgive me, General."
"Since we are late, let's have a few more drinks later." The old general said with a laugh.
"Yes, yes, yes... I obey your command."
County Magistrate Zheng nodded repeatedly with a smile on his face.
I feel that my relationship with this mighty general is getting closer and closer.
Now, you can come to my house for a feast.
While County Magistrate Zheng was talking to the old general, Zheng Yuanzheng went straight to Xiao Tangbao.
"Sister Fuya!"
Zheng Yuanzheng danced with joy, as if he hadn't seen little Tangbao for several lifetimes.
"Sister Fuya, did you miss me? I missed you so much. I brought you a lot of fun things..."
"By the way, I also brought you a dough figurine. I specially asked the old man who made dough figurines to make it according to my appearance, hehe..."
"This way, when you miss me, just looking at me will be like seeing me..."
After Zheng Yuanzheng finished speaking, Xuanyuan Jin's brows were tightly furrowed.
"Stay away from my sister!" Xuanyuan Jin said with a stern face, "My sister doesn't want a face like yours. Don't pollute her eyes!"
At this moment, Xuanyuan Jin felt particularly justified in calling her sister.
Moreover, the word "I" was emphasized.
Zheng Yuanzheng, "...Fuya, Fuya is also my sister..."
Zheng Yuanzheng retorted weakly.
After saying that, he looked at Xiao Tangbao pitifully.
Xiao Tangbao really doesn't understand.
Why is the little brother always so angry with Zheng Yuanzheng?
It seemed as if he was born to dislike Zheng Yuanzheng.
"Okay, Brother Zheng is a guest from afar." Little Tangbao looked at Xuanyuan Jin and said, "Brother, you should know how to entertain guests."
"Hmph!" Xuanyuan Jin snorted, "What kind of guest is he..."
However, it was no longer directed at Zheng Yuanzheng.
Old Mrs. Su brought several daughters-in-law to pay their respects to Mrs. Zheng.
Mrs. Zheng smiled and took Mrs. Su's hand, then glanced at the girl beside her.
Then, he introduced: "This is my niece Mingyan. Mingyan, come and meet Madam Su."
Ye Mingyan knelt down and saluted to Old Lady Su with grace and grace.
"Ming Yan greets Madam Su, may Madam Su be well."
Old Madam Su said in surprise: "What a pretty girl."
I have to say that Ye Mingyan's appearance is indeed outstanding.
Her hair is as black as clouds, her skin is as white as snow, her eyebrows are as slender as willows, and her eyes are as deep as autumn...
When she stood there, she was so graceful and elegant that she was truly an eye-catcher.
Especially the goose yellow Suzhou embroidery dress she was wearing, which made people feel that the girl in front of them was a flower that was about to bloom shyly.
After hearing what Old Lady Su said, Mrs. Zheng looked at the sisters-in-law of the Su family, all of whom had expressions of amazement, and a hint of pride appeared on her face.
Her niece has an impeccable appearance.
If it wasn't her master who suggested that her niece marry into the Su family, she wouldn't have called her niece to Fengqi County.
However, whether this marriage can be successful remains to be discussed.
After all, my niece is both talented and beautiful.
Although the Su family is good, its foundation is too shallow.
Moreover, the fifth son of the Su family was just a scholar after all.
Although Madam Zheng was filled with pride, she smiled modestly and said, "Madam, you are too kind. I am just a little neater in appearance."
"If Miss Mingyan was just a little more neat, then the rest of us... wouldn't it be unbearable to watch?" Qian Yuemei quickly interrupted.
Whether it was Mrs. Zheng or Mrs. Xia who came to the Su family, Qian Yuemei tried her best to find opportunities to show her face.
However, what I said today is quite timely.
Not only did it give enough face to Mrs. Zheng and Ye Mingyan, it also livened up the atmosphere.
After hearing Qian Yuemei's words, Ye Mingyan smiled shyly.
Then, he greeted Mrs. Su and others one by one.
Several brothers from the Su family are here today.
Ever since the day when the Duke of Ying came to snatch people away, Su Laowu has been on leave and has not returned to the academy in the county town.
After all, a former top scholar now lives in Daliushu Village.
Xiao Tangbao had already dragged his fifth brother to go to Yu Zhilan to ask for advice.
Su Laowu also benefited a lot from Yu Zhilan.
He even thought about studying under Yu Zhilan.
Mrs. Zheng glanced at the Su brothers, and her gaze paused for a moment on Su Laowu.
Then, he said to Mrs. Su, "Our two families are close, so let Mingyan meet your brothers and sisters so that we don't meet each other in the future and don't know each other."
Mrs. Zheng said so, and of course Mrs. Su could not object, so she quickly called her sons over.
"This is your eldest brother from the Su family, this is your second brother... this is your fifth brother..."
Mrs. Zheng didn't even need Old Lady Su to introduce her. She pointed at the Su family's sons and introduced them to her niece one by one.
Of course, the one I specifically met was Su Laowu.
Ye Mingyan bowed to the Su brothers with a shy look on her face.
He raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Su Laowu secretly.
