Even if Xin Zhixia was angry, it was useless.
Taozi couldn't get the comb back.
He can't comb his hair.
He could only stare at Xiao Ting vigilantly with his eyes wide open.
However, Xiao Ting didn't care about his look at all. He stood behind Xin Guoguo and combed her hair gently and carefully.
Xin Guoguo calmly looked at herself in the mirror, Xiao Ting behind her, and her brother standing not far away.
In this life, unless something unexpected happens, these will be two of the three most important men in her life.
Another one is daddy.
Thinking of her father, Xin Guoguo smiled gently.
These days, Uncle Lu takes my father to the Ministry of Personnel to report on his work every day.
It made Dad a little afraid of Uncle Lu.
Xiao Ting looked at the little girl's smiling face in the mirror and slightly raised the corners of his lips.
In the past few years, the only time he felt unable to relax was when he was at the Xin family.
Grandpa is taciturn, while grandma is strong but protective.
The responsible eldest uncle, the smart second uncle, and the very reliable third uncle.
The loving eldest aunt, the second aunt who is a bitch but loves her children, and the gentle third aunt.
And his good friends.
Thinking of these people, Xiao Ting felt that the boredom of staying alone in the capital over the years had been alleviated.
Comb the little girl's hair.
His fingers deftly tied her hair into a bun.
As if by magic, Xiao Ting pulled out an exquisite jade hairpin from his sleeve and inserted it into Xin Guoguo's bun.
"Okay, our Guo'er is so beautiful." Taking a step back and looking at it carefully, Xiao Ting was very satisfied with his masterpiece.
Xin Guoguo turned her head towards the mirror and nodded with satisfaction:
"Yeah, that's right. But where did you get this hairpin? I don't seem to have a hairpin like this."
It was a completely white hairpin with a magnolia flower carved on the end.
The hairpin looks very elegant.
Xin Guoguo looks pretty, but I wouldn’t say I like her that much.
She is a dragon.
Even though I like fluffy things, it can’t change my love and fascination for shiny things.
Xiao Ting looked at the mirror with a smile:
"I bought it together with the bracelet. I thought it suited you very well, so I bought them both. How is it? Do you like it?"
Xin Guoguo nodded: "I like it."
Who wouldn't like receiving a gift? "But I would like it even more if it were made of pure gold."
She grinned, her smile looking harmless.
Xiao Ting smiled helplessly and pinched her nose: "Little money-grubber!"
Xin Guoguo snorted.
But he didn't refute it.
Seeing this, Xin Zhixia coughed lightly and said, "Well, it's getting late, Ting, you should go back."
Go away quickly!
Don't get in his way!
Xiao Ting looked at the sky, and although he was very reluctant, he could only nod:
"It's time to go."
Then he turned to Xin Guoguo and said,
"I'm a little busy these days, Guo'er, don't be angry. After the Wanshou Festival, I'll accompany you around, okay?"
He has been taking some time off these days despite his busy schedule.
I can't stay at the Xin family for long.
Xin Guoguo wanted to say that she was not angry.
It's not like she's alone.
But he still nodded: "Okay, I understand, you go ahead."
Um!
Don't discourage the other party's enthusiasm.
Get it right!
Seeing that there was indeed nothing unusual on her face, Xiao Ting felt relieved, yet at the same time, he felt a sense of inexplicable loss.
"Then we'll meet on your birthday?"
"Okay. See you at the Wanshou Festival."
Xin Guoguo gestured goodbye to him with a lucky cat gesture.
Xiao Ting was touched by her cuteness. He smiled, said goodbye to the brother and sister, and left the Xin family.
At night, the Xin family gathered together for dinner.
At the dinner table, Xin Sanlang and Yang Sanniang asked the brother and sister about their life in the capital, and they were all very happy.
The Wanshou Festival is coming soon.
Early in the morning, the whole family started to pack up.
Dressing up, changing clothes, preparing birthday gifts, and all other matters related to the trip.
Yang Sanniang was busy all over.
Xin Guoguo was beside her, also busy running around.
Xin Sanlang and his son have already changed into court robes.
They originally wanted to help, but ended up making things worse. In the end, Yang Sanniang sent them directly to the front hall, and told them to sit and wait.
The father and son sat in the front hall, staring at each other, speechless, speechless...
Later, I don’t know who sighed first.
The two of them looked at each other and sighed in unison.
A scholar is good for nothing.
It seems that they both still have a lot to learn about housework!
Fortunately, there are only four people in the family traveling today, and Yang Sanniang and Xin Guoguo can handle it.
Just after the father and son each had another cup of tea, the mother and daughter also finished their work.
The family then boarded the carriage and headed towards the palace.
There was already a long queue outside the palace gate.
Each family sent servants to line up, and the masters did not stay in the carriage. Instead, they stood by the carriage, chatting in groups of three or four.
The teams are also arranged according to the rank and status of each family, regardless of morning or evening.
But most low-ranking officials would come early just to establish relationships with high-ranking people.
The Xin family's carriage slowly stopped.
Yang Sanniang and Xin Guoguo got off the carriage, and Xin Sanlang also got off the horse with his son.
As soon as the two of them dismounted, someone came over:
"Is this Lord Xin? I've heard a lot about you. Is this your son? He is indeed a handsome man with great potential!"
Xin Sanlang had no impression of the person in front of him at all.
But don't hit someone who smiles at you.
He still followed suit and returned the greeting: "Your Excellency, your words are too kind. I don't deserve them, I don't deserve them."
