Chapter 422: The Gynophobic Emperor Seizes His Minister’s Wife (5)



After seeing the prosperity here, five-year-old Jiang Ruize certainly didn't want to go back, so he let go of Jiang Linlin.

"If you dare to push me again, I will tell grandma." The young brother said harshly.

Jiang Linlin stared at the bleeding teeth marks on her hand, feeling extremely angry.

At this time, Jinxiu and several maids passed by them carrying breakfast.

The two of them looked at the plates of delicious food and were completely jealous.

"Did you see that? This woman eats better breakfast than grandma. As long as she adopts us, all of this will be ours."

Xu Jinyi had her own small kitchen in the yard, and she spent her own dowry, so she never treated herself badly when it came to food.

"Can she finish all this by herself?" Jiang Ruize was thinking about Xu Jinyi coming out and inviting them in to eat together.

However, the two of them just stood in the yard and watched Xu Jinyi finish his meal slowly before inviting them in.

Looking at their poor manners, Xu Jinyi didn't say much, but looked at them with a smile.

Pulling Jiang Ruize to her front, she said, "Ruize, that's a good name. This is the little gold locket your aunt made for you. Come, let your aunt put it on you."

Xu Jinyi took out a small gold lock and hung it on Ruize.

"That's great! You must be starving after standing for so long. Go back and have breakfast. Don't come here so early next time. Got it?"

In one sentence, it was decided that the two siblings would have to come and pay their respects to her every day as long as they stayed there.

Ruize touched the brand new little gold lock and looked at the bells on it that could make sounds. He immediately forgot all the curses he had just said to Xu Jinyi.

"Thank you, cousin, I like this little gold lock very much."

"Well, Linlin, take your brother back. You are the older sister, take good care of him."

Jiang Linlin, who was treated as air after coming in, was stunned. She looked at the gold locket hanging on her brother's chest, and then looked at Xu Jinyi with empty hands.

I almost wanted to ask, "Where's she? Where's her golden lock?"

He forced an awkward smile and nodded obediently: "I'll take my brother back right away. Thank you, cousin."

Looking at the backs of the siblings, Xu Jinyi smiled meaningfully.

How could she be so kind as to actually give them a gold locket? She just knew that Jiang Xiaoxiao was a jealous person.

She remembered that in her previous life she had spent a lot of money to hire a master to teach Jiang Ruize. Jiang Linlin implied that she was biased and that she didn't love her.

She insisted that she invite Sanniang, the best embroidery artist in the capital, to come back and teach her embroidery.

Anyway, whatever her younger brother has, she, as the older sister, must have.

Now that she feels the difference, she is afraid that the first person who will be dissatisfied with her younger brother will be her biological sister.

I just don’t know what her sister will do when the gap gets bigger and bigger.

"Miss, didn't you make two gold locks?" Jinxiu asked in confusion.

"Oh, I accidentally crushed the other one, so there is only one left." Xu Jinyi said without blushing or beating his heart.

Dujuan: "Isn't that solid?"

She remembered that she was the one who got the call. The young lady had said that adopting two children meant giving them a gift.

"Those two? I figured since we weren't adopting, there was no need to give them something so expensive. I thought I'd keep them and give them to you when your child is born."

Dujuan stopped talking at this time, while Jinxiu looked at Xu Jinyi with a touched expression.

Of the two siblings who left, one was extremely happy, while the other had strange thoughts in his mind.

Jiang Linlin stared at the gold locket on her brother with envy. She rolled her eyes and said, "Brother, that gold locket is so valuable. You can't lose it. Leave it with me for safekeeping."

Jiang Linlin was about to take it, but Jiang Ruize held the golden lock tightly in his two small hands.

"No, last time Dad gave us a small silver bracelet each and you said you would keep it for me, but in the end you didn't return it to me."

"You lied to me. Where's my silver bracelet? Give it back to me and I'll keep it for myself."

The golden locket is so beautiful that Jiang Ruize is reluctant to let it go.

Jiang Linlin's face froze. "What silver bracelet? Didn't I return it to you? Did you forget?"

The silver bracelet was bought for them secretly by their father, and even their mother didn't know about it, so she deceived her brother.

But she didn't expect that her brother still remembered what happened last year.

Jiang Ruize's eyes widened: "You swallowed my silver bracelet and don't want to return it?!"

"I'm going to tell grandma!" Jiang Ruize said as he ran to the hall protecting Jinsuo.

Jiang Linlin hurriedly stopped him in a panic: "Wait, did I really give you that silver bracelet? Last time when you were half asleep, you cried and asked for the silver bracelet, have you forgotten?"

Jiang Ruize was confused and couldn't remember: "But I didn't see the silver bracelet when I woke up?"

"You must have lost it. You told me to put it away for you, and you'll cry if it's lost again." Jiang Linlin said seriously.

Jiang Ruize really didn't remember, and seeing his sister's serious look, he was fooled.

Tonight is the Qiqiao Festival, but Lin Ze is on duty, so Xu Jinyi took her maid out for a walk.

"Dujuan, you stay and look after the yard. This is what my mother gave me when I got married. Study it carefully. Tomorrow I will talk to my husband about taking you as a concubine."

Dujuan heard that she couldn't go out, but before she could put on a sullen face, she heard this exciting news.

Looking at the cover of the booklet, she blushed and took it: "Thank you, ma'am. I will study hard."

Xu Jinyi didn't bring too many people with him when he went out, so he just called Jinxiu and didn't even use a carriage.

"Miss, there are too many people on the street today. What if I bump into you?"

"It's rare that I've been feeling better these past two days. I've never gone out for a walk during the Qiqiao Festival, so of course I have to go out for a good walk." Wearing a veil, Xu Jinyi squeezed into the crowd.

The sky is very good tonight. The twinkling stars are inlaid in the night sky, and a crescent moon is smiling.

The Kongming lanterns floating in the air add a touch of brilliance to this beauty.

The streets were bustling with noise, cheers, and hawkers' cries coming from all directions, making it very lively.

The Qiqiao Festival is the festival when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet, so many men and women walk together on the streets.

Most of these people are couples, and more are people who are visiting each other.

Only today in the year can a single man and a single woman meet each other without violating the rules as long as they do so on the main road.

Therefore, many wealthy families choose to meet their ideal partner today, or invite their ideal partner out.

After all, it's a rare opportunity to be alone.

Xu Jinyi walked very fast, and Jinxiu chased after her: "Miss, where are we going?"

Jinxiu saw Xu Jinyi walking forward with purpose and asked.

"Clothes."

After saying that, Xu Jinyi took people directly to the first pavilion in the capital.

Of course Madam Du knew Xu Jinyi; they were old acquaintances.

Before Xu Jinyi got married, Mrs. Xu would invite her to her house every now and then to make clothes for her.

But after I got married, I rarely asked her to make clothes for me.
