Chapter 2860: mutation, sudden engagement
Chapter 2860 Mutation, sudden engagement
Mrs. Xiao led her eldest daughter-in-law and the maids to dress up little Xinghua.
After getting dressed, Mrs. Xiao Lin looked at the little star flower and couldn't help but admired it: "My sister is really a peony, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes away."
Mrs. Xiao nodded with satisfaction: "Well, yes, our sister Hua is good-looking."
As expected of her, Xiao Tong’s daughter!
He then looked at Xiao Lin and said, "Take good care of yourself and the baby at home. Sister Hua and I will be back in the evening at the latest."
"Yes, my daughter-in-law will take good care of herself. Don't worry, mother-in-law." Xiao Lin stroked her lower abdomen with her hand and smiled gently.
Mrs. Xiao looked at her smile and felt very happy... After becoming pregnant, her daughter-in-law's mood changed, and she and others became gentle and open-minded, no longer petty.
“Let’s go.” Mrs. Xiao took Little Xinghua and entered the palace happily... But she didn’t expect that something disgusting happened to Mrs. Xiao when she entered the palace.
…
Empress Wang had been waiting for them for a long time. When she learned that the Xiao family's mother and daughter had arrived, she hurriedly asked people to come in.
After seeing Xiao Xinghua, she exclaimed in amazement: "This is Sister Hua, she is really beautiful and looks very much like Mrs. Tong."
There are only a few prominent families in the Northeast. When Queen Wang was a child, she was lucky enough to meet Mrs. Xiao's mother, so she remembered Mrs. Tong's appearance.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to the Queen. May the Queen be blessed with peace and happiness." Xiao Xinghua bowed to the Queen and said with a smile, "When my mother saw me, she also said that I looked like my grandma. I was still half-convinced, for fear that I She is not a daughter of the Xiao family, but now that I heard the Queen Mother say the same thing, I feel relieved and don’t have to worry that I am a fake and will be evicted halfway through my stay at home.”
Empress Wang liked her liveliness very much, and said: "The Xiao family is an earl's residence, and your mother comes from a prominent family. Evidence will be left when the children are born. It is impossible to mistake the daughter, so you can stay here with peace of mind."
Xiao Xinghua smiled: "Okay, my daughter will take root at home. Even if my parents and brothers find me annoying, I won't leave!"
“You girl, what you say is so interesting...” Queen Wang smiled, suddenly stopped speaking, stood up and saluted towards the palace door, saying: “Greetings to your majesty, why are your majesty and the prince here?”
It was actually Wei Qi who brought Wei Lin over.
After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao quickly picked up Xiao Xinghua and took her to salute Wei Qi and Wei Lin: "Greetings to your Majesty, paying homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Wei Qi said: "Our two families are friends of life and death, so there is no need to be polite. Get up quickly."
Mrs. Xiao: “Thank you, Your Majesty.”
After saying this, he looked at Xiaoxinghua.
Xiao Xinghua also said the same thing, and when she stood up, she grinned at Wei Qi in a flattering way.
It was this smile that stunned Wei Qi... The daughter of the Xiao family was actually so beautiful and lively, with a lively air in her every move and smile. She was much better than the wooden beauties in the palace who abided by the rules.
Mrs. Xiao and Queen Wang were both startled... They were married and knew very well how men looked at women. Wei Qi actually...
"Why are you here, Your Majesty?" Queen Wang quickly asked, asking Wei Qi to look away from Xiao Xinghua.
Wei Qi said: "The Xiao family is kind to me. Mrs. Xiao brings her long-lost daughter into the palace for the first time. Naturally, I want to come and see her."
Then he looked at Xiao Xinghua and said with a smile: "You are the apple of the eye that the Xiao family has been looking for for many years. The Xiao family is eager to support you for the rest of their lives and will not bother you. You just need to live in peace... If they really bother you, you will too." There is no need to be afraid, just come to me and I will support you." There is nothing wrong with this, but it can be regarded as a sign of elders caring for younger ones.
However, after seeing the stunning and fiery eyes just now, these words were extremely disgusting in the ears of Mrs. Xiao and Queen Wang!
"Sister Hua, I am your aunt. If you are wronged at home, come to my aunt and she will support you." Queen Wang took Xiao Xinghua's hand and smiled softly.
Three aunts talked about each other in one sentence, which made Wei Qi very uncomfortable.
He suppressed the discomfort, looked at Xiao Xinghua, and said with a smile: "Sister Hua, you must have suffered a lot these years when you have been living abroad. There are many rules in Beijing... I give you the title of the head of Huazhang County , with the position of county leader, you can rely on me more."
Xiao Xinghua was so happy that she exclaimed: "Your Majesty, your Majesty wants to make me the county lord?"
With a plop, Xiaoxinghua knelt down: "I accept the order and thank you for your kindness!"
Wei Qi was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Haha, thank you so quickly?"
She is indeed cute and interesting, much better than the concubines in the palace.
Xiao Xinghua nodded: "Well, your Majesty is so kind to me. I dare not say goodbye, so I can only thank you and accept the order."
“So you listen to me?” Wei Qi looked at Xiao Xinghua who was kneeling in front of him and said this meaningfully...Does that mean that she and the Xiao family will obey any orders he has in the future?
Follow your sister!
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help it anymore and immediately said: "Your Majesty, this reward comes at the right time... Sister Hua has been living abroad for many years and her reputation is not very good. Mrs. Gu Chen is also a shrewd person. I am afraid that Mrs. Gu Chen will pick on Sister Hua." Now that I have your Majesty's reward, after Sister Hua marries Brother Wang, Mrs. Gu Chen, the mother-in-law, will no longer be able to overpower her."
"What did you say?" Wei Qi was confused, pointed at the little Xinghua and asked in surprise: "Sister Hua is engaged to Gu Dewang? How is that possible!"
He has been sending people to keep an eye on the Xiao family, but the Xiao family has not engaged Xiao Xinghua at all.
He suppressed his anger again and said with a smile: "Mrs. Xiao, are you joking? Sister Hua has just arrived in Beijing and has not had any contact with Brother Wang before. When did you get engaged to him?"
He is reminding Mrs. Xiao that you'd better provide evidence, otherwise you will be guilty of deceiving the emperor!
Mrs. Xiao sighed: "My husband and I didn't want Sister Hua to get engaged too early, but this was Prince Wei's matchmaking... After Prince Wei saw Sister Hua, he felt that Sister Hua and Brother Wang were a good match, so he I wanted to bring them together and asked Brother Wang to pick up Sister Hua to Beijing. The two children met in front of me. Unexpectedly, they fell in love with each other, and the marriage was concluded verbally. I just want to wait until Gu Chen comes to Beijing and the two families can meet again, and if it’s suitable, we can formalize the marriage.”
Mrs. Xiao is blaming all the faults on Wei Xiao... So, if Wei Qi is dissatisfied, he should go to Wei Xiao.
Queen Wang said hurriedly: "I see, I also feel that Sister Hua and Mr. Gu are a good match. They are both lively and interesting people. It is really a good marriage."
Then he looked at Wei Qi: "Your Majesty, the Xiao family and we are close friends of life and death, and the Gu family can also be regarded as our relatives. When their two families are officially engaged, we have to give a generous gift from the emperor to treat the two juniors well. Long face."
Wei Qi suppressed his anger and nodded stiffly: "What the Queen said is that it is up to the Queen to choose the gifts from the emperor."
The Queen smiled brightly: "Yes, I will definitely handle it well and won't embarrass Your Majesty."
Xiao Xinghua was stunned, but she came back to her senses and knelt down again: "Thank you, my lord, for the generous reward!"
After saying that, he gave Wei Qi another bright smile.
Only this time, Wei Qi was no longer surprised, but felt that the smile was ironic, so he didn't stay long, and after a few perfunctory words, he took Wei Lin away.
