Zu shi smiled and touched Xiao Miaorong s face,
“Stop pulling your face. When you go back, your mother-in-law will ask you why you’re like this. If you learn this again, everyone will know.”There was a deeper meaning in her words. Everyone knew that Minister Xi, this stepwife, had a bad mouth. She was quick with her words. Her mouth was two miles ahead of her brain. Once she found out about something, the entire Jiankang
City would know too.
Xiao Miaorong nodded her head vigorously,
“San Lang told me not to tell my mother-in-law.”
Zu shi, mother, she had to treat Third Lady Xiao as a close friend.
It was only the second time they had met and he had already placed her in his territory. He had even told his mother-in-law about it in front of her. If she didn’t keep her mouth shut, she would be letting down Xiao Miaorong’s huge heart.
“Alright, let’s not talk about anything else. I won’t tell anyone.”Zu Shi said with a smile.
“It’s just a pity that we hit it off. I haven’t had enough of it yet, and you’ve already left.”He really thought so in his heart. It wasn’t tiring to get along with someone like Xiao Miaorong and she didn’t have any bad intentions.
The main thing was that people could tell at a glance if he had bad intentions, so it saved him a lot of trouble.
Xiao Miaorong also felt sad when she heard this. She also thought so.
They had only met once on Lady Yuan’s birthday, but that time, they chatted to their heart’s content.
Xiao Miaorong’s personality was similar to Madam Xiao’s. She was more straightforward than Xiao Baoxin and would not change her ways. Sometimes, it was inevitable that she would offend people.
However, she found Mrs. Yuan pleasing to the eye. She had originally thought that she would definitely get to know her better if she had the chance in the future. Who knew that they would be separated just like that? She could not bear to part with her.
Hearing the words of the Zu clan, Xiao Miaorong felt as if she had a bosom friend, and her head heated up as she said,
“I think so too. I like Fourth Lady’s temperament. However, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away. I’m afraid that the Fourth Lady will forget me once I leave. Why don’t we become in-laws when I have a child?”
Xiao Baoxin was flabbergasted. This was…
This is our little mother-in-law. Why did you let your aunt pry it open? In front of Mother? Mother, you can’t just leave him be, our Xiao SilTm anxious.
You can’t do this.
It looked like it was fire-proof and burden-proof, but it also looked like it was to prevent auntie from breaking into the in-laws?
Not only was Xiao Baoxin running with the ball, even the Zu family was stunned. What was going on? Why did they have an in-law?
However, there was one more person in the Zu clan who could see through Xiao Miaorong’s intentions. Although Xi Shao was the son of a concubine, he was highly valued by Emperor Yongping. With Xie Xian taking care of him in the court, his future was limitless. The Xiao family was a proper noble family, and becoming an aristocratic family was just around the corner. No matter how she considered it, it was worth being close friends with. Moreover, it was Xiao Miaorong who opened her mouth first, so she naturally took the opportunity to step down. There was no reason to refuse.
She didn’t say that she would marry her eldest son, so she had many sons.
“That’s good, I just don’t know which young man of my family Third Niangzi wants?”
Xiao Baoxin covered his face. He had only been married for a few days and was not even pregnant yet, yet he had already decided on a marriage for his daughter. Was she really sure that she would have a daughter as her first child?
Xiao Miaorong was very straightforward. She smiled, revealing eight small white teeth.
“It depends on which one is of similar age. If Fourth Lady and I have a son or a daughter, we can get married.”
“You’ve already calculated?” Xiao Baoxin said coldly.
Her in-law’s cooked duck flew away just like that…
Xiao Miaorong did not rely on her own daughter to befriend the Zu family. She was pregnant with a child, but it was a pity that she had a son. No matter what, she could not compete with Xiao Miaorong for this marriage.
If word got out, he wouldn’t be able to afford to lose face.
As for whether or not he was a fourth child, he was still far away. She didn’t believe that someone who was pregnant with an old son from her previous life would have an auto-battery function. One, two, three, or four of them would line up to change their father to reincarnate.
If the heavens really had such a godly operation, it would be extremely uncreative.
She didn’t believe it!
God, hehe…
Zu shi wiped her sweat and still didn’t refute Xiao Miaorong’s words. She took a jade pendant from her waist and handed it to Xiao Miaorong.
“Then our marriage is settled.”
Seeing that Madam Zu had taken off the jade pendant, Xiao Miaorong also handed over the century-old jade pendant carved with lotus flowers and lingzhi that Xi Sanlang had given her.
“It’s decided!”
Xiao Baoxin watched the whole scene and felt a dull pain in his back, as if someone had stabbed him.
[Mother: Mother, I’m so disappointed in you. You’re the mother-in-law of our Little Four!]
[Xiao Baoxin: Get lost, where did this Little Four come from!]?
You brought it here?
Her stomach was full of her previous life and Yang Shao’s children, how could Xie Xian endure it? She herself had to find a hole to hide in. She had changed Xie Xian out of impulse, was it purely to change her father?!
Please don’t tease me!
This time, I don’t say anything. This matter is indeed awkward for anyone. “Sister will be the witness.” Xiao Miaorong said with a smile, pulling Xiao Baoxin’s hand: “You can’t forget me in the future. If I really leave, you must write to me.”
Xiao Baoxin was speechless.” Shut your mouth. I don’t care what I say to you.”” Xiao Miaorong stuck out her tongue. Seeing that people were coming in and out one after another, she no longer made a fuss. The three of them just sat together and laughed softly.
“This is my unknown mother-in-law or mother-in-law. Even if I ignore someone, I wouldn’t dare to ignore you. I definitely won’t forget. I’m still waiting to curry favor with my mother-in-law or mother-in-law for my family.”Zu shi giggled as she joked with Xiao Miaorong, not finding it a mouthful at all.
Even someone as ambitious as Xiao Miaorong couldn’t help but blush.
Xiao Baoxin coldly glared at his little sister.” It’s also because of your sharp eyes and quick tongue. Otherwise, I would still want to betroth Fourth Lady to a child.”
Isn’t your baby a boy?” Zu Shi was shocked. What kind of luck did she have to be in the eyes of these two sisters to actually marry into her Lu family?
When she went back, she would ask a master to take a look. Had her sons moved the Red Phoenix Star too early?
“Do you really want to get engaged?” The Zu family was not sure, but…To be honest, he was tempted.
Not to mention that Xie Xian was a powerful and influential figure in the imperial court, the Xie family had been in the royal family for a hundred years, and the Wang family of Langya had fallen. The Xie family was clearly the number one person in the aristocratic family.
This Xiao Baoxin was also Xie Xian’s wife, the mistress of the house, so her status was different.
If the Lu family could arrange a marriage with the Xie family’s eldest son, it would be more desirable than with the Xi family.
Xiao Baoxin saw that Zu Shi was moved, and his heart was also moved.”This child should be a little boy…However, they might all be young men in the future. After all, not everyone had the fortune of the Fourth Lady.
“If there is a little Niangzi, then it would be better to become in-laws with Fourth Niangzi.”
Zu shi clapped her hands. If she had a daughter, she could also settle down. Just as she was about to agree, Xiao Miaorong spoke first,”That’s good. Our sisters ‘children are all married to Fourth Lady, and we’re like a family!”
He did not have any intention of fighting for the wind..
