Xiao Jingyun was stunned and didn't know what to say.
Are you good friends with the old Taoist priest from Nantai Temple?
The old Taoist priest who can take out the magic stone must be the master of the temple!
The abbot of Nantai Temple is a great man. Our dynasty believes in Taoism and Buddhism, and Nantai Temple is a large temple. Even the royal family has to give the abbot some respect when they see him.
As a result, his brother took away the other person's magic stone and said that he was friends with the other person?
Xiao Jingyun examined his brother for a few seconds and said, "Seventh brother... you are so thoughtful."
Could it be that he donated a lot of money?
But he couldn't imagine the abbot being greedy for money.
"As long as Big Brother likes it," Xiao Cunyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. "This divine stone is hard to come by, and you can't get it every year. I just returned to Beijing this year, so this gift is a bit heavy, but it will be impossible to get such a good thing in the future."
There was something deeper in her words.
How much silver is the magic stone?
This cannot be measured by silver. It is a rare thing in the world. Some stones fall from the sky every year, but they are all simple meteorites or common iron meteorites. There are very few extraterrestrial stones like this one that contain unique minerals.
If every gift followed this standard, she really wouldn't want to live anymore. It would be too tiring.
Xiao Jingyun also understood, and was very happy to have obtained something good. "Big brother, you understand. From now on, as long as Seventh Brother works hard to improve himself, I will be fine even if I don't want anything!"
“…” Xiao Cunyu rolled his eyes at him.
Dong Qiaoxin forced a smile with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Seventh Cousin, I'm so inexperienced that I didn't know this stone was so powerful."
"You're quite self-aware." Xiao Cunyu snorted, "But you're a bit rude. What's the point of saying this after the fact? What was said just now cannot be undone. Just because you apologized, do you think I'll forget it?"
"I really didn't mean it." Dong Qiaoxin lowered her head.
Seeing that Xiao Cunyu was unhappy, Xiong should have tried to comfort him.
But this time, she also felt that Dong Qiaoxin did not know etiquette.
When it comes to gift-giving, no matter how big or small, even if someone makes a joke, you shouldn't point it out to their face. Of course, if the relationship is very close, jokes are allowed, just like between these two brothers. No matter how noisy it gets, it's their own business.
But Dong Qiaoxin was a guest after all, and she had some grudges against Xiao Cunyu. If she said this again, she would be deliberately provoking trouble.
Are you trying to alienate the two brothers?
She also hired a female teacher to teach Dong Qiaoxin etiquette, but the child made no progress at all, which was really disappointing.
Xiong no longer wanted to care about her.
People's patience is limited. If she still doesn't get the hang of the same thing after being instructed once or twice...it would be annoying.
Giving you so many opportunities, yet expecting others to keep giving in? That doesn't make sense.
Dong Qiaoxin stopped talking.
Xiong thought for a moment and said, "Today, you two brothers should take Qiaoxin and Jinming to the hunting grounds. They have been guests here for a few months, and I haven't taken good care of them. I haven't let them see more of the scenery in the capital. It's my fault."
"Aunt, Xin'er doesn't blame you." Dong Qiaoxin said quickly.
"Auntie knows what you're thinking. I figured your father hasn't seen you for a long time and must be missing you. Since you're here as guests, I'd naturally like you to stay longer, but I can't stop you from fulfilling your filial duties to your biological father. Take a stroll around for a few days. When you've seen enough, I'll send you two back. Come visit again when you have time."
Xiong's words were quite tactful, but even the siblings understood.
Drive them away.
