Chapter 336 His mother had never taken care of him like this!
Madam Xiao had barely finished her words when she saw Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess actually reach out and wrap her arms around her neck!? She smiled faintly at Yun Che, then turned and walked away, holding Tang Bao in her arms.
Yun Che: ???
Xiao Qingye reacted a little slowly. After saying goodbye to his uncles and grandfathers, he called Little White Tiger and ran after his mother in fear.
Lu Jinchuan looked at the Xiao family mother and son who were getting farther and farther away. At such a young age, he was able to keep his emotions hidden!
Only the hands hidden under the cloak had already been clenched into fists.
After the people had completely left, he turned to look at the imperial censors and said politely, "Since all the gentlemen are here, and His Majesty is here too, why don't we just donate the silver here directly? This will save Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess the trouble of visiting each house later..."
The imperial censors looked at each other in bewilderment at the chaos and mess in the Ge family mansion. They shuddered at the thought that even the stingy Ouyang Boshan had been plucked out...
Very reluctantly, they nodded with a wry smile.
......
Little Tangbao completely ignored his father's mood and happily followed Madam Xiao to the Xiao Mansion.
Mrs. Xiao was very happy. She took her to the main house, quickly took off her shoes and cloak, and placed her on the warm couch.
She took the wet towel handed to her by her mother and wiped the little girl's hands and face herself. If she wasn't worried about scaring the little girl, she would have taken off her socks and soaked her little feet...
The child must be so tired after running around for the whole morning!
Xiao Qingye, who was standing at the door, was stunned. His mother was not as gentle and kind as she looked... She had never taken care of him like this!
Woo... He wanted to be sad, but he couldn't be angry because of Xiao Tangbao!
Looking down at his dirty self, he decided to change his clothes and wash his face while his mother was busy with Tang Bao.
He just turned around when his mother grabbed him by the back of his collar. "We don't have any ointment suitable for children in this mansion. Go out and buy some with the steward! When you get it back, remember to find your father and tell him to come back!"
Xiao Qingye: “…”
"Why are you still standing there?" Xiao's mother stuffed a silver ingot into his hand, pushed him out of the door without saying anything, and slammed the door shut!
Xiao Qingye: "Mom! Today is the first day of the new year!!" All the shops are closed!
A quarter of an hour later...
Little Tang Bao looked at Madam Xiao, who was sitting opposite her, grinning at her with her chin propped up. She squinted her eyes and chuckled, "Auntie, you are so beautiful!"
"Really?!" Madam Xiao was overjoyed by the compliment. She rubbed her face shyly and asked, "I heard that the young prince can see ghosts. Is that true?"
The little fellow, who had finally found a topic, nodded vigorously, "For example, there's a female ghost right now, lying in the crack of the door, secretly watching us..."
Before he could finish his words, Madam Xiao screamed "Ah!" and scared the hell out of him!
She hurriedly crawled to the side of little Tang Bao and curled up into a ball, tremblingly hugging the little guy's arm, "Okay, okay, Your Highness, you, you, you let her go!"
Her voice was trembling violently, and she was crying: "Auntie, Auntie, I'm not afraid of anything, except for Xiao Qingye's father not washing his feet. Secondly, I'm afraid... Second, I'm most afraid of these ghosts and gods!"
"Good Tangbao, Auntie has never done anything wrong! But I just can't stand hearing about demons and ghosts! Let her go now!!"
Upon hearing this, the female ghost let out a shrill scream and pounced at Madam Xiao with her fangs and claws bared!
However, he was struck by the majestic golden light of merit and the imperial purple aura surrounding Xiao Tangbao, and was instantly shaken away like a lightning strike!
Her soul and body trembled violently and she almost collapsed on the spot!
The female ghost was frightened and became quiet instantly!
She huddled in a corner like a punching bag, sobbing softly: "You...you bad woman! How dare you say you've never done anything wrong?!"
Little Tangbao turned around in confusion, looking at Madam Xiao, who was trembling with fear and instantly became weak and helpless...
Brother Qingye’s mother is obviously a very good person. She has a golden aura of merit and virtue on her body. She shouldn’t have done anything bad, right?
Although this female ghost is filled with resentment, there is no bloody or murderous aura around her... Is there another hidden secret?
The little fellow immediately frowned, pointed at the female ghost and shouted, "What wrong did my beautiful aunt do? Tell me clearly! If you lie even a little, I will chant sutras to save your soul!"
Looking at the fierce-looking little baby, the female ghost cried even harder.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Tangbao helplessly crawled into Mrs. Xiao's arms.
The female ghost covered her face and wept, unable to contain her grief: "The Xiao and Qin families have been friends for generations, and Brother Xiao and I were betrothed to each other since we were born..."
"The year I came of age, I secretly left home with a token of my love and went to the border to look for him. Unexpectedly, I encountered bandits on the way!"
"Those villains pushed me step by step to the edge of a cliff, where I accidentally fell and ended up being shattered to pieces!"
"After I died, I was worried that Brother Xiao would become ill due to my worries. I went through countless hardships and finally found him! But I saw...but I saw..."
"What did you see?" Tang Bao couldn't help asking.
The female ghost suddenly raised her head, pointed at Madam Xiao with resentment, and shouted bitterly, "But this bitch stole my husband and is now in the bridal chamber with my brother Xiao!?"
"If it weren't for the fact that Yan Tinglan's eyebrows and eyes resembled mine, and if Brother Xiao wasn't obsessed with me...why would he have treated her as my shadow and married her with such fanfare?!"
"My life or death is unknown, and Brother Xiao has been waiting for me for five whole years! Five whole years!! He has me in his heart! I am the one Brother Xiao should marry!"
The ghost girl became more and more angry as she spoke, tears of blood streaming down her face...
"Brother Xiao should have waited for me his whole life...but Yan Tinglan took my status and my marriage fate!!!"
"Now, even after I die, being buried with Brother Xiao has become a luxury!"
"Yan Tinglan... is nothing more than a thief who took advantage of someone else's situation and stole someone else's husband! And she still dares to say she has done nothing wrong?!"
"......" Xiao Tangbao swallowed hard, looked into Madam Xiao's tearful eyes, and told her everything the female ghost had said, word for word.
Bang!
Upon hearing this, Yan Tinglan slammed the table, and the exquisitely carved mahogany table shattered immediately.
The female ghost who was surrounded by murderous aura just now suddenly became obedient, and her ferocious face quickly revealed its original appearance.
Little Tangbao was so scared that he immediately shrank his neck, and a double chin appeared on his skinny face!
"Good boy, tell me, does that ghost girl really look like me?"
