Chapter 481 Returning to My Mother's Home
The next day, in the imperial study.
The emperor, with scars all over his dragon robe, stared at Xu Hui with murderous eyes.
Xu Hui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead guiltily.
"...Marshal,"
"Don't try that, I'm the emperor now!"
"Then, Your Majesty?"
"Let go! Xu Fox, you better explain to me clearly what you said in front of the Queen.
I've completely figured it out. If I hadn't asked you to plead for me, I might not have gotten this beating!
Xu Hui, are you a fucking ruthless person?
Didn't I just say a few bad words about you in front of my cousin? Why would you want to kill me like this? "
Anger made the emperor speak without thinking, and then Lord Xu raised his eyes.
"I got punished a while ago. Was it you who caused the trouble?"
“…”
"emperor?"
"...So what if it was me who did it? Who told you to show off in front of me every day? A full man doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man. Not only do you eat meat in front of me, but you also dare to smack your lips. If I don't punish you, who will?"
Oh, what a confident person who is not justified!
Xu Hui was so angry that he laughed.
Just now I felt that I had misunderstood his meaning and caused him to be beaten by his cousin, which made me feel guilty. Now I only have one thought in my mind: Good job!
This roe deer deserves to be beaten!
The emperor and his minister were in love and hatred with each other in the imperial study, while the empress took a break from her busy schedule to visit her parents' home with her son.
"Grandma!"
Li Rui, who has a cold face but sweet mouth, called people as soon as he entered the room. Xu Ruoyu, who had not seen her daughter and grandson for a long time, immediately smiled with joy.
"Hey! Grandma's little Azhu is here? Come on, let grandma hold him and see if our Azhu is eating well and growing well."
Li Rui, who has grown up, shook his head and refused very sensibly.
"Azhuo is already very heavy. Grandma, please don't hold me. It's tiring."
"Grandma is not tired. As long as our little Ah Zhuo is healthy, Grandma will not be tired at all."
Little Li Rui paused for a moment with a worried look on his face before he had to tell the truth.
"...The Grand Tutor said that men and women should not touch each other. I am a man and my grandmother is a woman. You'd better not hug me, let alone kiss me."
Although Douding was a little older, he tried to imitate the old scholar's speech and made the whole Jiang family laugh.
"Can I hold you, uncle?"
The tall and strong Jiang Yao squatted in front of his nephew with a smile. When he saw him nod, he stretched out his paws, picked up the child and held him against his neck.
"Come on, uncle will take you to the yard to ride a big horse!"
"Um!"
Little Li Rui, who is less than three years old, likes this game very much. Although he is too shy to say it, the big smile on his face makes it obvious that he likes his uncle very much.
"Xiao Si, follow me!"
Jiang Yao took his nephew out to play, and he didn't forget to invite his younger brother. Jiang Yang politely bowed to his elder sister before leisurely catching up with his brother and nephew.
Jiang Wan always found it hilarious when he saw Jiang Xiaosi pretending to be an adult.
After watching the boys leave, he turned to look at his mother.
"Mom, I'm back."
"It's good that you're back. You said you didn't tell your family in advance so that your mother could prepare some of your favorite food. We can't let our little Azhu down."
"What can't he eat as a child? I just haven't been back to see you for a long time, and I missed you so much. It's just that the emperor is back and can help for a while, so I'll take the time to come back and spend two days with you."
Putting the gift back on the table, Jiang Wan walked up to the old man and the old lady with a smile.
"Master, I brought you some cakes."
"What new thing do you want to tell me?"
The old man is old now, and his hearing is not very good, but his mind has not diminished at all. Especially when facing this wicked granddaughter, he usually uses his wit to the fullest.
So he moved aside cautiously.
"Did you do something immoral outside again? Let me tell you first, your grandfather's teeth are in good condition recently, and he can't get sick at all!"
"Where do you think you're going?
With my current status and position, why would I need you to pretend to be sick to help me out?
I just came back to see my family.”
"Hmph, my stomach doesn't hurt at all!"
The old man is now very good at blindly listening and responding randomly, which made the old lady sitting next to him so angry that she reached out and slapped him.
"I'm an old, hard-of-hearing person. If you can't hear clearly, can't you just pretend you didn't hear? Who can put a big knife to your neck and force you to speak?"
"Oh, the eldest girl made shoes and socks for me again?"
The old man immediately nodded with a smile, but frowned after a moment and gave some earnest advice.
"You're so busy these days, why are you still making shoes and socks for an old man like me? I appreciate your kindness, but please don't do it again, okay?
Take more rest when you have time. Look at how hard you've worked. Your complexion isn't as good as it was when you were sixteen or seventeen. Don't work so hard and think more about your parents and children. Do you hear me?"
"Okay, I heard you."
Jiang Wan nodded vigorously, opened the bag of snacks in his hand and pushed it to the old man, thus blocking the caring voice from the old man.
Then she turned and looked at the old lady again.
"Grandma, what's this on my sleeve?"
"What?"
The old lady's eyesight was not very good. She stared at her granddaughter's raised sleeve for a long time before she curled her lips.
"You're a queen, and yet your clothes are so thready, how can you be okay? Come here, I'll pull the threads out for you."
The old lady stretched out her fingers, pinched the very obvious red line, and pulled it again and again, making it longer and longer, muttering to herself.
"You guys in the palace's sewing room aren't very good at your job. You left this thread hanging so long... No, what the hell is this?"
A large gold bracelet made of particularly sturdy material was pulled out from her sleeve, and the old lady's eyes narrowed in smiles instantly.
"For my wife?"
"Really? I had this custom-made for my grandma, and it even has your zodiac engraved on it! Do you like it?"
"Hahaha, how can one not like a big gold bracelet?"
"As long as you like it."
Jiang Wan pulled off the bracelets with a smile and put them on the old ladies one by one, nodding and commenting seriously.
"You know what, a big gold bracelet like this only looks good on a wrist like my grandma's. Yeah, they complement each other perfectly."
"What's dirty about it? Where is it dirty? I think this bracelet is very clean, every part of it is good!"
"Didn't you say that old people have blurred vision? Can you still see the bracelet clearly?"
"How can I not see clearly when it's so golden? It's crystal clear. It's very clean and flawless. I love it!"
She reached out and rolled down her sleeve to hide the bracelet. The old lady's love for gold bracelets remained the same as always.
Jiang Wan smiled and looked at his mother, and then a finger touched his forehead affectionately.
