Chapter 284 Why did you kneel down?

Xiao Linzi gritted his teeth and endured it. He knew that Eunuch Wei was doing this for his own good.

Yuan Baobao was unaware of the eye contact between them. She was already carried to the carriage by Prince Yi. She

took a ride here, and got on Prince Yi's carriage when she came back. Yuan Baobao nestled comfortably in Prince Yi's arms.

Daddy's embrace is still more comfortable.

[Daddy's embrace is quite warm, but not as soft as mom's.]

The little girl compared it, and Prince Yi wanted to slap her butt. He held you with good intentions, but you still complained.

However... seeing that the little girl was a little sleepy, Prince Yi did not push her out.

The main reason was that this little girl was good at talking, and she was still a complainer.

It is better to be safe than sorry. If he tells his wife about it, Prince Yi is afraid that Liu Jiaojiao will settle accounts with him.

...

"Little Princess, I brought you something fun!"

The next day, when he woke up, Xiao Linzi came with a smile on his face, holding two lively fish in his hands.

Yuan Baobao looked at the energetic fish and was confused.

His head was messy, and he hadn't had time to comb his hair yet?

"Xiao Linzi, why are you here?"

Because he had accompanied her for most of the day yesterday, Yuan Baobao still remembered this lovely eunuch.

"Are these also fish raised by the emperor? Why are they without any color?"

The fish raised in the palace are mainly for the masters to see. They must either be beautiful in appearance or have nice colors. The fish in Xiao Linzi's hand are ordinary and just relatively plump. It is obvious at first glance that they are not raised by the emperor.

Xiao Linzi chuckled: "Little Princess, didn't I see yesterday that you really liked eating fish? I went to the Yu kitchen to ask about it, and the chef there said that the ornamental fish they raise are not tasty, the meat is not fresh, and there are a lot of bones. But this kind of fish is much more delicious..."

Xiao Linzi raised his hand flatteringly: "This one has only one main bone, and very few other bones. It tastes delicious. You can cook it, stew it, or even roast it!"

Yuan Baobao's saliva was almost flowing out, his eyes sparkling: "Is it really that delicious?"

Xiao Linzi nodded hurriedly, and Liu Jiaojiao also walked in, picked up the comb on the dressing table, and personally combed Yuan Baobao's hair.

"You can't eat the fish you've seen. Little baby, you don't know how much you would have paid for the fish you ate yesterday if you'd bought it like this..."

Yuan Baobao...she just wanted to taste it, otherwise, she would have eaten all the fish.

"Eunuch Xiao Linzi has brought the fish to you from a long way away, how do you want to eat it?"

Liu Jiaojiao knew that Yuan Baobao was a person with her own ideas, so she tried to get her opinion.

Yuan Baobao looked at the two plump fish, and now she didn't want to move: "Let the kitchen staff cook it, I like it no matter how it's cooked!"

Xiao Linzi served with a smile, and was very attentive. He waited until Yuan Baobao finished eating the fish, and then he couldn't help asking: "Little princess, I came here today, and I want to trouble you with one more thing!"

Yuan Baobao showed an expression of "as expected".

It is said that those who are attentive without any reason are either treacherous or thieves. Eunuch Xiao Linzi and she met for the first time yesterday, how could she come to please him today? And she brought two fish!

Although fish are worthless, it depends on the person. In a place like the royal palace, fish is just the smallest thing.

But for ordinary people, they can only afford to eat fish once a year or a month, and some families are not well off and can't even eat it once a year. The young eunuch's allowance is not high. If he wants to survive in the palace, he has to make arrangements and some have to take care of the family. Being able to buy two fish is a big burden for him.

"What's the matter?"

Yuan Baobao blinked and looked at him curiously.

"It's like this, little princess, I know you are capable, there is something I don't understand, I want to ask you."

Yuan Baobao nodded and didn't stop him.

"In the past few days, I couldn't sleep well at night, and my right eyelid kept twitching. People say that twitching in the left eye means wealth, and twitching in the right eye means disaster, but there hasn't been any disaster recently, and I feel uneasy. So I want to ask the little princess, is something going to happen?"

[Relatives really have a sense of connection! ]

[Grandpa Xiao Linzi is also a conscientious person. Nothing will happen to him, but his two unlucky brothers will be in trouble! ]

[Let me calculate, hiss, he won't die, but he will be disabled for life! ]

[If we rush back now, there may be a turn for the better! ]

Yuan Baobao took a quick calculation and took a breath of cold air.

But she didn't see anyone, so she couldn't calculate it clearly.

Xiao Linzi almost peed himself when he heard this.

There are three brothers in total. He has become a eunuch, and his two younger brothers are still young and have not married yet. If both of them are disabled for life, how can they get married in the future? Wouldn't their family be extinct? No

, he must ask the little princess for help no matter what. He must not let anything happen to his brothers.

"Little princess..."

Xiao Linzi knelt down with a thud, and Yuan Baobao didn't notice it yet.

"Something happened in your family, and it's a big problem. Hey, Xiao Linzi, why are you kneeling down?"

Yuan Baobao realized that Xiao Linzi was already kneeling.

Xiao Linzi... he was scared.

He also knew that the little princess liked money, but he didn't have any. The silver that was finally saved was sent to her home a few days ago. Did she borrow money to buy fish?

"Little princess, please give me some advice!"

Xiao Linzi started to kowtow. Yuan Baobao was shocked and hurried forward to stop him from continuing to kowtow.

This Xiao Linzi was also very practical. After a while, his forehead was bleeding and turned purple-red.

"Eunuch Xiao Linzi, don't kowtow anymore. Can't I help you?"

Yuan Baobao looked helpless. If she didn't like Eunuch Xiao Linzi, she would not bother to care about these trivial matters.

...

Linjia Village is not far from the capital. It only takes more than a day to take a carriage.

Linjia Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides and has fertile land. However, ordinary villagers have no land and their lives are not good.

Occasionally, people go up to the mountains to hunt, but recently I heard that there are tigers in the mountains. As long as the family is living well, people who can't starve to death will rarely go deep into the mountains.

There is also a big landowner living here. I heard that he has relatives in the capital who are officials. Most of the land in Linjia Village belongs to his family, which can be regarded as a big family.

Lin Youqing and Lin Youyi are twins who are already fourteen years old and will be planning to get married in another year.

The two brothers are tall and strong. Although the conditions at home are not good, they can live well because of the help of their elder brothers.

"You are so loyal and righteous. Have you heard that someone in the capital is offering a bounty for tiger skins, and the price is very high. You two are going to discuss marriage soon. Have you prepared the betrothal gifts?"

A thin-looking man said, The man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks held the brothers' arms and whispered.

The two brothers looked at each other, and Lin Youqing shook his head: "No, but my father said that it is too dangerous to go into the mountains, so he won't let me go! "
