Lu Ping's brother raised his eyebrows with a look of surprise on his face, as if he had never expected that I would make such a request.

"You mean …" "Do it once?" The stupefied expression on her brother's face, pointing to himself, pleased me for a moment.

"What do you think?" I smiled and took a sip from my teacup.

Tsk, this cup of cold tea is a bit bitter, but it can't match the smile in my heart.

Come on! Since you want to take your sister away, you have to pass me first!

The man took a step forward and knelt on the ground, frowning deeply. He clenched his fists tightly, but before he opened his mouth, he could hear the sounds of grinding teeth.

"Old... "Old lady!" I heard a creak from outside, a fist clenched too tight.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. If such a punch were to land on my body, I'm afraid that even a few of my ribs would be broken.

However, with a great god like His Majesty, the Prince Qi who was in front of me, he would absolutely not dare to make a move against me, especially not daring to touch my valuable face.

"Why are you so slow? My grandmother does not have that much time to waste with you! " I slowly turned the bracelet in my hand and looked at the gentle light that was reflected from it.

How could an old lady who kept flowers and fed fishes all day not have time?

Brother Lu Ping's face turned white and red, red and white. After hesitating for a long time, she finally opened her mouth.

"This servant is Lu Ping's older brother, his name is Pan An."

Hearing this, I almost spat out my tea! He had never seen such a shameless person. At most, he would look like a decent boy, but he still dared to call himself Pan An!

Not only did I find it hard to suppress my laughter, even the two maidservants used half of their sleeves to cover their faces.

Lu Ping slowly stood there. Her face was also a bit red, but she was still relatively calm. Clearly, she knew of her brother's alias a long time ago.

"Who gave you that name?" I managed to stifle my smile.

The man raised his eyebrows. Through the cloth, I could see the veins popping out of his forehead.

"It's my master." Another thump, and I was glad to hear it.

To be able to be so easily convinced by him and be called 'Master', that must be the God of Heaven, right? Thinking about how that proud and aloof Prince Qi, who liked to wear white robes, would actually give such a name to a person beside him, could it be that he had a hobby of breaking his sleeves?!

A knowing smile appeared on my face as I nodded and said, "That name sounds really good! Very good! Very elegant! " At the end of my sentence, I threw a sympathetic smile at Brother Lu Ping through the tent.

Even if you didn't see what I was thinking just now, after seeing my smile, Brother Lu Ping should have realized what I meant.

"Where are you thinking!" The man suddenly jumped up and roared!

"This name was given to me by the princess!" Because... "Because …" In the end, he stopped speaking with a red face.

"Because of what?" Originally, I didn't dare to be interested, but seeing how he seemed to want to continue talking without stopping, I became a bit curious.

"Because I am the ugliest of the princess' guards!" "So the princess gave me such a name to make fun of me!"

This kind of demeanor of a little girl appearing on the body of such a seven foot tall brawny man really made one feel that it was extraordinary … Ridiculous.

The maid's concealed laughter came from both sides. I forcefully held on and said in a calm tone, "I didn't expect that Your Highness would be so interesting! The name he gave it is also quite unique! "

I looked up at the clock in the outer room. This is bad! He was so focused on teasing that he even forgot the time. If he went to bed late in the morning, he would be laughed at by his grandmother if he went back late at night.

"Alright!" I see that you've already prepared yourself quite well, follow me to see Grandmother! " I withdrew my smile and tidied up my clothes.

"You're just trying to tease me!" Brother Lu Ping squeezed these words out from his teeth. I raised my eyebrows but didn't comment.

Lan Lan and Lu Qu escorted me to my grandmother's house. Lu Ping and her brother followed me all the way from the back.

When I entered my grandmother's room, she was sitting on the kang, talking to her mother about red jade. I looked at the box in my hand and smiled to myself. What a coincidence that I came this time.

"Grandmother." Before I could get down on my knees, my grandmother pulled me to her side.

Grandmother looked at my clothes happily and smiled. "I usually don't want you to wear it in a festive manner. But look at how beautiful it is today."

At the side, Mother Du also chimed in, saying that my clothes today were very beautiful. She pointed at the jade bracelet on my hand and said, "It's just that this bracelet's color is green, it doesn't match the brilliance of Miss's clothes!"

I do not like bright colors, jewelry also like simple and generous, did not expect to accidentally wear a festive dress today, unexpectedly a few.

"I have a string of Red Agate Pearls that suits that little girl's clothes. Go and find them!"

Mother Du smiled and agreed. She went to find Hong Chang to open the cabinet.

Taking advantage of Grandmother's happiness, I took out the box in my hand and handed it over to Grandmother. After reading the letter from the red jade to Grandmother, Grandmother sighed for a while before relaxing.

"Grandmother, do you remember that Lu Ping is going out of my house?" The foreshadowing was all for Grandmother's happiness, so she got down to business.

I watched as the smile on my grandmother's face suddenly changed to a serious expression.

"Oh, let them in!" Grandmother sat upright on the kang.

I went to the door, said something, and hid behind the screen to see what was going on inside. I saw Lu Ping's elder brother obediently bring the younger sister and the old man into the room. He then politely kowtowed to me, and told Grandmother about the bitter feelings he couldn't share with me earlier. Finally, he thanked Grandmother with heartfelt gratitude.

I couldn't help but support my forehead. I really didn't see that this brother of hers had such a good singing sense. He was actually a talented person!

The only flaw was that his grandmother's mouth twitched a little when he mentioned his name.

Grandmother's serious expression from before was completely gone. Although Grandmother did not have tears flowing down her face, her face was still full of emotions. Before she left, she even gave him two hundred taels of silver.

Really, three days apart!

I apologized to my grandmother and took the party to my mother's yard. As the owner's mother, she naturally had to go inform him. However, since Lu Ping came out from her grandmother's courtyard, she could only announce it once.

Mom Feng, who was sitting beside my mother, led me into the inner room. I didn't expect that my mother wasn't the only one there. At this time, my father was also at home.

His mother and father were sitting on the brick bed, one on each side. His father was holding a book, lying on the brick bed and casually flipping through the books. His mother was sitting upright on the right side, holding a needle and thread in her hand, leaving a beautiful silhouette for his father.

"Father, mother!" I stepped forward and bowed.

My father looked up at me with a gentle smile.

But my mother passionately pulled me to her side to do it. I looked down at the embroidery in my mother's hand. It was a child's little dress.

Such exquisite workmanship!

When he touched it, he could tell that it was precious silk, and the cotton inside was also tightly packed. The edge of the bag was made of a ginger jacquard cloth, and the buttons were filled with large, well-proportioned pearls.

No wonder she's not in front of Aunt Chen." If her mother was by her side, her father would definitely pay her a visit every day. Originally, her mother had wanted to show her kindness, but if she lost her husband's heart because of such a false reputation, then it wouldn't be a good thing. Now, although his mother wasn't by his side, she had not only displayed her motherly image, but had also firmly locked her husband by her side.

I sat by my mother's side and praised the exquisite workmanship of my mother's little dress and her kind heart. My mother was very pleased with my performance, and when I mentioned the matter of Lu Ping, she happily gave her fifty taels of silver.

After bidding farewell to my mother, the sky is already slightly dark. I can still only send her to the three gates. Lu Ping said goodbye tearfully to me at the three gates before following her brother out.

Looking at the back of Green Pingping's leaving figure, I suddenly felt some envy. In this courtyard that she had grown up in, she could leave as long as she wanted. As for me, it's extremely hard for me to find a place to live freely in this world.

I'm not the only one who's sad. Lan Lan's eyes are red from crying, and I'm being held by the Green Bandits to comfort me. As they speak, the Green Bandits can't help crying as well.

"Let's go back!" I said softly.

My life is left to me! It was because I firmly believed in this matter that I was able to come to this day. On the surface, I'm just a little smarter than I used to be, but a lot of things have changed.

When I returned to my grandmother's courtyard, there was only a maid waiting for me in the inner room. When she saw me return, she smiled and replied, "The old lady has already gone to the dining room. She's calling Miss over!"

I brought Lu Qu and Lan Lingyun to the dining room in Grandmother's courtyard. There was a curtain of laughter and laughter inside.

Did his mother come? I just came out of my mother's yard, how can I walk so fast?

Turning the fan, I was shocked to see that it was a person sitting at a table. There was also a table full of dishes on the table. However, the people sitting around the table were the servants in his grandmother's courtyard.

"Come sit!" Grandmother sat in Hong Chang on one side, and Mother Du on the other. Sitting in the middle, her face was flushed red.

Seeing me coming over, Hong Chang quickly moved her seat to the side. I sat next to my grandmother.

Grandmother pulled me along and laughed. "You don't know!" Our master and his servant often gather like this when your father and mother aren't around. "

On the table, apart from my mother Du and Hong Chang, the rest of the people I was slightly familiar with were mostly the older mothers. One of them was Mama Li who was taking care of Grandmother's money, the other two were the mothers who were taking care of Grandmother's warehouse, and the rest were probably the elderly people who were with Grandmother.

I carefully looked around. There was no second wife's mother-in-law. It seemed that all of them were grandmother's trusted aides.

Grandmother raised her glass. "We have not been together for quite some time! Some of you have followed me since young, some of you have followed me halfway, some of you have followed me halfway, some of you have followed me halfway. At our age, a lot of things can be seen, and people who come and go will get used to it, and what remains is fate. Come! Let's have a drink together! "

It's a lie to gather together, I want to say that I'm the real one!

I lifted my glass and drank from it. It was not as bitter as I remembered it, but it had a hint of sweetness and the fragrance of osmanthus blossoms.

After drinking the goblet, all the mothers seemed to have opened a taboo, each of them talking about the trivial matters at home. Some mothers even took the opportunity to ask their grandmothers to marry for their children, and their grandmothers laughed and drank with them.

I used to think that I was using grace and power to my servants, but today, I finally see what is called 'grace and power'.

She was usually such a serious grandmother, but when she laughed with these mothers, she was like a close friend.

Needless to say, this was the most straightforward lesson.

It will be mine after all, not something I can't force. I thought I was open-minded, but I was way too far away from my grandmother.

In the middle of the night, Grandmother was already dozing off.

I helped Grandmother back to the house. Before I went in, Grandmother stumbled into the house and sent everyone away. Grandmother nimbly poured me a cup of tea and poured me another.

"I haven't let those old guys see through my alcohol tolerance." Grandmother smiled mischievously at me, vaguely able to see the charm of that year.

Grandmother's eyes were exceptionally clear. "Are you feeling better?"

I flushed red and tugged at the hem of my shirt. "Thank you for your guidance, Grandmother."

"Then quickly go back and rest!" Grandmother waved at me.

"Yes." At the moment I felt unusually open.

I went out to meet the two maidservants, and the smile on my face deepened. The two of them had a blush on their faces and the aroma of food and wine on their bodies. It was obvious that they had just arrived at their grandmother's feast.

"Miss!" The two maids had the same bashful and happy smile as I did just now.

"Let's go home!" I pulled one of the maids along with me as we headed home. The three of them walked out of the courtyard after joking around for a while.

"Eldest Miss!" The breeze of the night brought a gentle female voice.
