Seeing Xiao Yao, Yin Qianhua couldn't help but think of her daughter, Yun Ruonan. Two children of the same age, one generous and polite; the other timid and withdrawn. They were so different.
"Which family are you from?" Yin Qianhua asked casually.
Xiao Yao rolled her eyes and thought that it would be best if she could avoid answering this question.
If my mother knew that I was outside alone, I would definitely be scolded.
"Hehe." Xiao Yao pretended not to understand and blinked her eyes that had deceived countless people.
Yin Qianhua and the head maid Qiuying exchanged a glance. What a strange little girl! Why on earth would she refuse to reveal her name? Yin Qianhua subconsciously touched her face. Did she look like a bad person?
"If I ask you how old you are this year, will you answer me?"
“In one month and fourteen days, I will be six years old” is a acceptable answer.
"Are you here to enjoy the scenery?"
What should she say? Xiao Yao hesitated again. Should she tell the truth? She had just met the person in front of her and was not even familiar with him. Lying didn't seem appropriate.
Xiao Yao's conflicted expression pleased Yin Qianhua. This little girl seemed to have a lot on her mind. What could be the worry of a little girl who is only a few years old?
"I want to see which young lady is pretty." Because my fourth uncle and second brother are about to get married, I'm helping them to screen them first.
"I'm here to see the beauty today too."
Hearing this, Xiao Yao thought of the lustful parrot again.
"Do you have any…" A single man of marriageable age in your family? Was this a sign of a new competitor?
"My son is already twelve years old." Yin Qianhua's tone was filled with pride and emotion that her son had grown up.
Fortunately, fortunately, there was no conflict with the target person. Since we were not rivals, I wondered if we could develop into friends?
The same goal instantly brought the two closer together, and at least Xiao Yao relaxed.
"Do you have a brother?"
"Yes, and there are five of them." Plus a very difficult uncle.
Just as the two people, one big and one small, were getting more and more engrossed in their conversation, a boy appeared next to the rockery behind the pavilion.
What did Mother mean by these words? Could it be... Yun Yichen resisted the urge to rush out. He wanted to hear what these two were going to talk about next. It was a pity that Father had been worried that Mother wouldn't be used to this kind of situation, and ordered me to come over secretly to take a look. Humph, it seems that was completely unnecessary. She was in high spirits! But Mother, isn't your confidant a little too young?
"What kind of sister-in-law do you want?"
"That depends on whether my brother treats me well."
"Why do you say that?" Yin Qianhua asked curiously.
"If my brother treats me well, I will ask mother to help him choose a gentle and virtuous woman; if he dares to treat me badly, I will ask mother to choose him a woman with a fierce personality, preferably one with strong martial arts skills."
"Why?!"
"Next time my brother and sister-in-law quarrel, I'll stand behind her, cheering her on while enjoying my brother's frustrated expression." This is a good idea, but who should I use it on? After much deliberation, Xiao Rui seemed to be the most qualified person in the family. I'm sure Ruyi would agree with me.
Because there were no other outsiders in the pavilion, and Xiao Yao had a good impression of Yin Qianhua, she made a little joke to liven up the atmosphere. Anyway, no one else would hear it, right?
Yun Yichen snorted in his heart. He didn't know whose unruly little girl this was. She was so cunning and weird, talking nonsense.
Xiao Anzi, who was standing behind him, had been laughing secretly for a while. Whose young lady was this? She could express her bad ideas so confidently. It was simply... too funny.
Yin Qianhua was also amused by Xiao Yao. She wondered whose child this was. She should let her daughter meet her. It would be hard for her to be unhappy with her by her side.
"Is your brother not good to you?" Yin Qianhua asked after laughing.
"Sure! My brother is very good to me. Shouldn't a brother be good to his sister? He buys her some snacks, pens, ink, and some new gadgets, and then reads and plays with her. Sometimes he even puts me to sleep!"
"Your brother is so nice."
"Your children must be doing well at home too."
"How did you know that?" The little girl is so funny.
"It seems like you're living a happy life!" Dressing well and looking good are also signs of a good life.
"Since you have such good taste, then tell me, should I find a gentle and virtuous daughter-in-law, or a fierce and martial arts-skilled one?"
Xiao Yao covered her mouth with her hands. She absolutely couldn't say this as it would easily offend people. Although her son was not around, she couldn't just speak casually.
"I understand from the look in your eyes that you should find a strong and brave girl with strong martial arts skills as your daughter-in-law, right?" Yin Qianhua teased Xiao Yao.
How can you see that? You can’t do that to people. Xiao Yao shook her head silently in protest. Why do she feel that she is more wronged than Dou E?
Yun Yichen: This girl is really not a good person.
The little girl was both trying to sow discord and telling lies. Yun Yichen snorted coldly again, accusing Xiao Yao of having evil intentions.
He had done almost none of the things that the little girl had just mentioned that a good brother should do. Yun Yichen didn't believe that there was a brother who could take care of his sister like this. He thought that the little girl must be talking nonsense and bragging, and his dissatisfaction with Xiao Yao increased a little.
If a person is dissatisfied with someone, he will never like the person no matter how he looks at him. Xiao Yao probably didn't check the almanac before going out today, so she met an "enemy" destined by fate.
"Madam, I have to go. My sister has been away for a while and hasn't come back. I need to go find her."
"Do you want me to send someone to help you?" Yin Qianhua really wanted to help the girl in front of her. She had finally met an interesting person, and now they were about to part ways, so she felt a little reluctant.
"Don't bother you, she should be in this yard."
"Okay, go ahead and walk slowly." Yin Qianhua advised.
My mother has never been so gentle and kind to me, so why should this girl enjoy the same? Yun Yichen snorted in dissatisfaction in his heart.
"Goodbye, ma'am!" After getting off the stool, Xiao Yao bowed again and left the pavilion.
Xiao Anzi really wanted to see what this interesting lady looked like, so he leaned over to take a look, but unfortunately he saw nothing but her back.
Yun Yichen wanted to grab Xiao Anzi. He didn't want his mother to know that he was eavesdropping. When he leaned forward slightly, he happened to see Xiao Yao turning around and waving goodbye to the people in the pavilion.
The little girl in a blue dress has a bright smile and is cute and lovely.
However, in Yun Yichen's eyes, she was just a little girl with a smirk on her face. She didn't look like a lady at all. Only her eyes were decent. He really didn't know why his mother liked her so much!
"I don't know whose lady she is. It would be great if Ruonan could make friends with her." Yin Qianhua said, looking at Xiao Yao's back.
"Would you like me to ask around? It shouldn't be difficult to find." Qiuying bowed.
"No need, we will definitely meet again if we are destined to."
It's best not to meet again, lest my mother or even my sister be led astray. Yun Yichen stretched out his hand to signal Xiao Anzi to retreat.
"Master, aren't you going to talk to the princess?" Xiao Anzi said after walking a distance away from the rockery.
Yun Yichen looked at Xiao Anzi like an idiot. "Mother, there's no need for anyone to worry about you right now, okay?" Just now, she was so happy and laughing with that girl. "Don't you feel there's anything you need to worry about?"
"I understand." Receiving the master's unfriendly gaze, Xiao Anzi shrank his neck. Why did the master look so unhappy?
"Go and find out who that little girl is from." He wanted to find out who she was from. If that family was unwilling to take good care of her, he might be able to help hire a strict nanny.
"Yes." The poor little girl Yao was unlucky and had offended her master. She could forget about having a good life. I don't know whose luck is so bad.
