Chapter 547 The Choice of the Parties
Si Linglong was still educating Xueshan when she suddenly heard a sound coming from the side and behind. She turned her head subconsciously and saw Shen Rongrong and the palace maids walking towards them quickly.
"etc."
Si Linglong signaled the palace maid to stop. She did not sit on the sedan chair and wait for someone to talk to her. She got off the sedan chair and asked, "Mr. Shen, what do you want?"
Shen Rongrong felt a little awkward towards her boss Linglong. After all, all the grievances she had suffered in front of the emperor since entering the palace came from the person in front of her.
But since she had already entered the palace, she knew that she could not act according to her own wishes. She reluctantly bowed to Si Linglong and then looked at the child on the other sedan chair and the cat in the child's arms.
"Excuse me, Madam, is this cat yours?"
Si Linglong didn't expect that Shen Rongrong called her over just to see the cat, but when she thought that everyone in Wu'an Marquis Mansion thought that the old lady's original body was the cat raised by the old lady, she didn't find it strange.
"No." Si Linglong had just opened her mouth when Xue Shan poked his head out and said to Shen Rongrong in a crisp voice,
"This is my pet. Its name is Feifei."
Even though Shen Rongrong had no feelings for the child, she thought the child in front of her was really adorable. Her originally stiff expression towards Si Linglong softened a bit.
"Can I see it? It looks a bit like my great-grandmother's cat. I..."
Before Shen Rongrong finished her words, Si Linglong interrupted her, "Mr. Shen, are you thinking that this is the old lady's cat?"
Shen Rongrong pursed her lips when she heard the voice, but did not deny it.
Indeed, when she first saw the cat on the sedan chair just now, she really thought it was her great-grandmother's cat.
Especially when her great-grandmother passed away, her family was worried about her and sent someone to deliver a letter, in which they mentioned that the old lady's cat was missing.
Even though the people in the mansion didn't see the cat for ten days or half a month on weekdays, the old lady passed away, so it was inevitable that everyone cared a little more about the cat that the old lady raised during her lifetime.
She knew that this guess was a bit absurd, but since the child had just come from outside the palace and was holding a cat like the one her great-grandmother had raised, she couldn't help but think about it a little more.
"I just want to take a look." As the descendant of a military general, Shen Rongrong naturally couldn't speak in a roundabout way. Moreover, this happened in front of Si Linglong, so she didn't know what it meant to be tactful.
Seeing her attitude, Si Linglong couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
[My dear, although this is indeed your old lady, your tone seems to be accusing me of kidnapping? ]
Si Linglong was a little unhappy.
"Let's just take a look." Si Linglong said, "How about this, you said this cat looks like yours, why don't you call her, if she agrees, I'll let her go back with you, how about that?"
Si Linglong didn't like Shen Rongrong's attitude, and she wouldn't force Xiaoxiao to stay. After all, Xiaoxiao had been her great-grandmother for many years. Although she couldn't transform at the moment, what if she wanted to reunite with her family?
In this matter, Si Linglong felt that the parties involved should be allowed to make their own choices.
When Xue Shan heard what Si Linglong said, she couldn't help but hug Fei Fei tightly in her arms. She opened her mouth to object, but saw Si Linglong's eyes sweeping over her, obviously not allowing her to object.
Her rosy face was slightly pouting, but Xueshan still let go of her hand and let Feifei go down.
Upon seeing this, Shen Rongrong immediately reached out her hand to the white cat and called her name again, "Yukou, is that you? Come over here."
Yukou was the name of the cat that she heard by chance from the old lady.
Not many people in Wu'an Marquis Mansion knew this name. After all, it was not a cat that was properly raised in the mansion.
But she had called the cat by this name when she had accidentally seen it a few years earlier, and the cat had even turned around and looked at her.
Shen Rongrong thought that the cat had also looked at her. If it was really the old lady's cat, it would definitely react to the name.
Si Linglong was also a little surprised when she heard the name.
Whether it was the first time they met at Wu'an Marquis' Mansion or when they met again today, 朏朏 never mentioned her real name to them, so that when she and A Yue mentioned 朏朏, they simply used 朏朏 instead.
As for Xue Sha, the first reaction upon hearing the name was disgust.
Jade buttons and the like don't sound nice at all.
Not as fat as she is.
As for 朏朏本朏, perhaps because she hadn't heard the name "Yukou" for a long time, she subconsciously looked in the direction of Shen Rongrong.
When Shen Rongrong saw the white cat's reaction, she was delighted. This was really her great-grandmother's cat!
She took a step forward happily, but unexpectedly, the white cat just raised its eyes slightly and glanced at her, then quickly retracted its gaze, its elegant and beautiful long tail circled in the air, and then turned around without any attachment and walked back into Xueshan's arms.
Although she doesn't like the name Feifei.
However, her karma with the Shen family has been resolved, and from now on she will no longer have anything to do with the descendants of the Shen family.
Her great-grandmother had advised her to carefully consider entering the palace.
Even if the emperor had already issued an edict, if she was unwilling, she was confident that she could make the emperor revoke his order based on her face.
But Shen Rongrong was determined to enter the palace, so she no longer tried to stop her.
She has already fulfilled her responsibilities, and as for the future, they will have to decide for themselves.
Shen Rongrong was originally looking forward to taking back her great-grandmother's cat, but she didn't expect it to just turn around and leave. Apart from the first glance it gave her, it seemed to completely ignore her afterwards. Shen Rongrong was stunned.
Si Linglong also spread her hands when she saw this, "It looks like it's not your cat."
[This is the person's choice, I didn't kidnap him.]
Having said that, he turned around and got on the sedan chair and prepared to leave.
Xuesha was also very happy. He rarely felt sorry for letting Feifei go down the ground and held it in his arms and sat down again.
Shen Rongrong saw the sedan chair being lifted up again, but she refused to accept it. The cat had clearly looked at her just now!
That was her great-grandmother's cat!
Shen Rongrong was unwilling to accept it. It was fine if the emperor chose Si Linglong, but could it be that even his grandmother's cat would not choose her?
"Wait!" Shen Rongrong took a step forward and stretched out her hand to grab the fence of the sedan chair to prevent them from leaving. She looked up at Si Linglong and said with a bit of toughness in her tone, "I can buy it. Please sell the cat to me, Madam!"
Si Linglong frowned slightly when she heard this, turned her head to look at Shen Rongrong, and asked her slowly, "Mrs. Shen, do you think I'm short of money?"
