Chapter 371 General's Childhood Sweetheart 23
After a pause, Liu Bo smiled again and said, "But since the general also knows Miss Xiaoqi, she should be fine."
Hearing this, Song Jiao couldn't help but laugh and said, "Uncle Liu, do you trust Pei Lin so much?"
"Of course!" Talking about this, Liu Bo's eyes, which had been a little cloudy, lit up: "The young general is the most powerful. If it weren't for the young general holding on, the general's mansion would have fallen after the old general and the old lady passed away. I, an old widower, probably wouldn't be able to live the good life I have now..."
It's not certain that he has died a long time ago.
Song Jiao nodded, Pei Lin was indeed the most powerful.
She assured Uncle Liu: "Don't worry, Pei Lin and I will definitely take care of you in your old age."
Uncle Liu smiled and nodded. Just as he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
The two turned their heads and saw that it was Xiao Qi.
"You finished so quickly?" Song Jiao's eyes fell on Xiao Qi's hand: "What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor prescribed some medicine, and Miss Feicui went to buy it." Xiao Qi said, and then whispered to Song Jiao, "Miss Song, thank you."
She saw Uncle Liu standing by and thanked him as well.
"Miss Xiaoqi, there's no need to be so polite with me. Just stay here and relax." After saying that, Uncle Liu nodded to Song Jiao: "Miss Song, I'll take my leave now."
Song Jiao: "Okay."
She turned her head and saw Xiaoqi looking at the new clothes and rouge and powder.
"Do you like it?" Song Jiao asked lightly.
Xiao Qi was startled and quickly shook her head: "Miss Song, please don't misunderstand me. I just think General Pei is really good to you."
That’s true.
Song Jiao did not refute.
Xiao Qi looked at the new clothes and headdresses and suddenly asked softly, "Why are you suddenly preparing so many new clothes? Miss Song, are you going to a banquet?"
Hearing this, Song Jiao couldn't help but look up at her, uttered a "oh" with a slight syllable, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why do you think so?"
Xiao Qi was slightly stunned when she heard this, then she said, "Because when I was a servant in someone else's house, the master of that house would always buy her lots of new clothes whenever he was going to a banquet, just like Miss Song..."
Song Jiao nodded and told her about going to the palace in three days.
Xiao Qi's eyes lit up at the side. "The Imperial Palace? I've heard people say it's huge inside, with lots of amazing things, and it's even more prosperous than the outside..."
Hearing Xiao Qi's excited tone, Song Jiao casually asked, "Do you really want to go?"
Hearing this, Xiao Qi waved his hands repeatedly, a little embarrassed, saying: "Miss Song, you are too kind. Xiao Qi is from a small village. How can I be qualified to enter such a place..."
Having said that, the expression on her face was still full of anticipation.
At that time, Pei Lin told her that she could bring a maid into the palace with her, because other young ladies from noble families would also bring servants to serve them.
Originally, Song Jiao hadn't planned to bring anyone with her, but seeing Xiao Qi's expression, she said, "You can come with me when the time comes."
Xiao Qi's face flashed with surprise and astonishment, as if he couldn't believe it, and his voice trembled slightly: "Is it okay?"
Song Jiao: "Of course."
Xiao Qi nodded excitedly.
Song Jiao's eyes fell on her, then looked away: "Since you are going to the palace with me, you should also pick out some clothes."
How could Xiao Qi dare to accept so much when he had such a great opportunity? He quickly refused.
Seeing this, Song Jiao was too lazy to force her.
…
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and soon it was the day of the palace banquet.
