Chapter 273 The Banquet Ends
"Perhaps in the future, my Nangong family will be destroyed in your hands."
"Nangong Jin, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Okay, Jiahe, stop messing around." Song Zhijin, who was standing by, seemed to be getting anxious, and quickly pulled Princess Jiahe and said, "I was wrong about what happened today, why don't we apologize to her together."
Jiahe still wanted to fight back, but no one in the room agreed with her.
Seeing this, Princess Jiahe swung her sleeves in dissatisfaction: "If you want to tell me, I won't apologize to her."
After saying that, he passed by Xu Miaomiao.
Seeing this scene, Nangong Jin directly drew out the sword and blocked Princess Jiahe.
Princess Jiahe was still a little surprised, her eyes widened: "Nangong Jin, what do you mean? If I don't apologize today, can you kill me?"
"I'll say it again, apologize!" Nangong Jin said in a cold voice.
Princess Jiahe was so angry that she wanted to break out of the sword fight, but Nangong Jin showed no mercy. Seeing this, she could only turn around with dissatisfaction, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said sorry.
"Princess, what you said is really unreasonable." Xu Miaomiao looked at the woman and said, "You are not sorry for me, but for the child in my arms. She is still young. If the princess really wronged her today, I am afraid that this shadow will be lingering. Please sincerely apologize to her."
As soon as Xu Miaomiao finished speaking, Nangong Jin raised the sword in his hand again.
Hearing this, Jiahe walked aside dissatisfied, looked at the child in her arms and said sorry.
Although his tone was gentler than before, he could still hear the anger in it.
"Are you satisfied now?" Princess Jiahe stared at Nangong Jin and said.
When Nangong Jin saw Xu Miaomiao nod, he put away his sword.
Jia He then left angrily, leaving only one sentence: "What a bunch of idiots!"
"Madam Xu, please don't blame me. I was confused just now and didn't understand the situation clearly. What happened today is all our fault. We will come to your house to apologize in the future."
Come to apologize? That's not necessary. As long as they come, it's bound to be bad news. Xu Miaomiao was about to refuse, but Song Zhijin hurriedly walked up to Nangong Jin and said, "Jiahe is a princess. She has been spoiled since she was a child. You are used to it. Don't bother with him. You can't expect every girl to be like me, like a man." Nangong Jin heard this and nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Song Zhijin ran after Jiahe.
Xu Miaomiao was close to Nangong Jin just now, so she naturally heard what she said. Song Zhijin seemed to have a good relationship with Princess Jiahe, and Princess Jiahe also relied on her very much, but she did stab him in the back a lot! Who knows if she is still thinking about Nangong Jin? But why does she like Nangong Jin but not express her feelings and say things directly? Xu Miaomiao has always been puzzled by this.
Seeing that the farce was over, everyone dispersed.
At the men's table, after Nangong Jin left, the guests also left one after another. After greeting the last few guests, Gu Yuanniang sat on a chair and took a breath.
"So, the banquets in these high-ranking families are so complicated. I was afraid that I would say something wrong and upset those dignitaries, which would implicate the whole family."
"Yes, yes." Song Weiwei, who was lying on a chair beside him, responded, "Those young ladies are really annoying. The tea gets cold, the wine gets too strong, the cakes fall off their clothes, and there are disputes over who sits with whom. These things are always waiting for us to solve. Fortunately, this banquet only happens once. If it happens a few more times, I'm afraid I'll be exhausted to death."
When Xu Miaomiao heard this, she smiled at the two of them and said, "Okay, let's have a good rest today. We still have to go to Xiangchunfang tomorrow to take a look."
Gu Yuanniang and Song Weiwei nodded, then dragged their tired bodies towards their rooms.
When Xu Miaomiao saw the two of them leave, she breathed a sigh of relief, then walked into Erbao's room with concern.
At this time, Erbao was still sitting at the table, listening to Dabao telling stories.
Seeing her coming, Dabao also took the initiative to stand up and greet: "Mother."
"We're at home now, so don't be so polite." Xu Miaomiao took the initiative to speak.
Dabao nodded slightly. When he turned around, Xu Miaomiao had already sat down in front of Erbao: "Are you scared by what happened today?"
Erbao nodded hesitantly: "Mother, why doesn't that elder sister want to listen to my explanation? Is it Erbao's fault?"
"That's not the case." Xu Miaomiao immediately denied it and took the little girl in front of her into her arms: "Erbao is right. Today, Erbao just saw the door open and went to take a look. He did nothing wrong. It was that big sister who was too anxious because she lost something, so she misunderstood you. Didn't she apologize to you today? Let's forgive her together, okay?"
Xu Miaomiao and Princess Jiahe have some grudges, but she doesn't want her children to bear these grudges. If possible, she hopes that her three children can grow up happily and healthily.
When Dabao heard what Xu Miaomiao said, he was also a little stunned. After not seeing her for these years, she seemed to have changed a lot.
Erbao listened to Xu Miaomiao's comfort and nodded slightly.
Xu Miaomiao immediately took out a gold-studded necklace from her body and waved it in front of Erbao.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Erbao's eyes were shining and he couldn't take his eyes off the things he was holding.
Xu Miaomiao hung the thing around Erbao's neck. This thing was customized by her herself. It had a safety lock on it and two small bells. When he walked, it made a jingling sound, which was very beautiful.
"It was my mother who neglected it before. Erbao is a girl and she also loves beauty. You will definitely have what others have in the future. I will not let Erbao's future be worse than anyone else's."
"Thank you, mother."
Erbao snuggled sweetly in Xu Miaomiao's arms, not wanting to leave. Finally, looking at the sleeping child in her arms, Xu Miaomiao gently put her on the bed and tucked in the quilt before leaving.
Dabao, who had been waiting nearby, felt a little sore in his legs, but he couldn't take his eyes off the loving scene in front of him.
"Are you going back to Nangong Mansion today?" Xu Miaomiao asked Dabao as she looked at the sky which was already getting late.
Dabao nodded slightly: "We still have to train tomorrow. Practicing martial arts is a little harder than other things. It's hard for you."
"Mother, what you said is serious." Dabao immediately bowed to Xu Miaomiao and said, "I should thank mother for sending me here to learn martial arts, so that I can better protect the people I want to protect."
When Xu Miaomiao heard this, she smiled at Dabao with relief. Just as they were about to part, Dabao stopped and looked back at Xu Miaomiao.
