After Rebirth, I Became a Powerful Minister’s Beloved

Suddenly there was the sound of horseshoes outside.

Nan Baoyi rejoiced: "Shiku must be back! I asked him to buy spicy fried river seafood, let's eat together!"

Nan Baozhu immediately opened the curtain greedily and tried to look outside.

She was stunned: "Jiaojiao, come and see!"

Nan Baoyi moved to the window curiously.

I saw an army of about a hundred people appearing in front of the gate of Cheng's mansion, each dragging a horse-drawn cart and an ox cart.

A cage accidentally fell to the ground, and the lid of the box fell open, revealing that it was filled with white silver ingots, even antique calligraphy and paintings, silk and satin, etc.

She was shocked too!

Xiao Yi casually stepped out of the threshold of Cheng Mansion.

He stepped on the steed neatly, held the rein with one hand, and said coldly: "These dozens of boxes of things are used by the Cheng family to pay off their debts."

Nan Baoyi blinked Danfeng's eyes.

It turns out that the reason why the powerful minister has not come out for so long is because he is watching the Cheng family move things to pay off the debt!

She couldn't help showing a sweet smile: "Second brother, thank you today! I treat you to spicy fried river seafood!"

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows.

The little girl is so rare and generous that she is willing to invite him to eat seafood.

Shi Ku soon came back with a large portion of spicy fried river seafood, and Nan Baoyi enthusiastically distributed it to everyone, even the accompanying maids and servants.

Everyone praised the fifth girl for her generosity and virtuousness.

Nan Baoyi smiled and shared the snails with Shiku, "You have worked so hard on errands, I invite you to eat snails!"

Ten bitterly took over.

Hearing the praise from all directions, he couldn't help scratching his head, feeling that something was wrong.

It seems that he paid for these seafood. Why are everyone so grateful to Miss Wu!

This trip to Cheng Mansion was a rewarding experience.

In the hall of Songheyuan, the old lady hugged Nan Baoyi and Nan Baozhu, smiling from ear to ear.

Nan Baozhu babbled excitedly, and tried her best to broadcast live for the old lady:

"Grandma grandma,

Didn't you see that when Jiaojiao uttered that poem, the audience fell silent for an instant! And the second brother, he threw three gold hairpins at random and hit the carp directly, making Cheng De look like a useless dog! Jiaojiao is full of talent, and the second elder brother is both civil and military. They are a match made in heaven! "

The smile on the old lady's face froze obviously.

"A gifted man and a beautiful woman are born together", can it be used in this context? !

She glanced at Xiao Yi.

This guy is drinking tea, with an attitude of nothing to do with himself.

The old man's heart is full of fire!

This guy clearly coveted her precious granddaughter, but he always pretended not to care in front of Jiaojiao.

He deceives Jiaojiao, seduces Jiaojiao, shows off in front of Jiaojiao overtly and secretly, making Jiaojiao worship him and admire him by relying on his dual abilities, what a clever trick!

Nan Baoyi said earnestly: "Grandmother, we have broken up with the Cheng family this time. Mrs. Cheng said that she will come to the mansion tomorrow to withdraw the engagement."

"Retirement?" The old lady held her little hand worriedly, "Grandma remembers that you admired Cheng De very much and wanted to marry him wholeheartedly. That's fine, why did you suddenly have a resignation? Did your second brother instigate you?" ?”

Nan Baoyi smiled helplessly: "Grandmother, where are you thinking? I want to divorce myself, and I have nothing to do with my second brother! Mr. Cheng looks down on me. If you want to be happy, why bother to add that block?"

The little girl's voice is soft and waxy, very well-behaved and sensible.

The old lady felt sorry for her, and hugged her kindly, "If Jiaojiao doesn't like Cheng De, then you can get rid of the engagement! Anyway, our family has money, even if you raise you for the rest of your life, even if you raise a man in the house, that's fine." No problem at all!"

Nan Baoyi covered his face.

It's not that she can't get married, nor is she so hungry that she wants to raise a man in the house!

After everyone dispersed, she followed the old lady into the bedroom.

The dormitory was full of gold-threaded nanmu furniture, and the old lady sat down in front of the makeup mirror, gently removing the heavy hairpin between her buns.

Nan Baoyi picked up the ivory comb and carefully brushed her hair, "Grandmother, I offended the prefect's mansion today, and in the future, our family's business will inevitably be troubled by others, will you be angry with me?"

In the brass diamond mirror, the benevolent face of the old man is clearly reflected.

She said earnestly: "Grandmother will never be angry with Jiaojiao. Grandmother is afraid that Jiaojiao will regret it in the future... Although Cheng De was born in a wealthy family, he is also very talented. "

She held Nan Baoyi's little hand and said tentatively: "Jiaojiao, you really don't like him anymore? Are you... have you taken a fancy to another young master again?"

Nan Baoyi leaned on her lap and gently rubbed her knee.

Grandma has a pleasant fragrance of Buddha on her body, which makes her feel peaceful.

She raised her eyebrows and said, "Grandmother, although Cheng De is extremely talented, he lacks virtue and is mean and ungrateful. Grandmother used to say that it is not scary to be without talent, but to have bad moral character. Jiaojiao wants to marry the most handsome man in the world." An indomitable man, like the second elder brother, who values ​​love and justice, and is aboveboard!"

The old lady was silent.

Emphasis on love and righteousness, open and aboveboard...

Does this describe Xiao Yi?

I really don't know what ecstasy soup that guy poured into Jiaojiao to make her worship him so much!

She touched the little girl's head, and said tactfully: "Your second brother fought on the battlefield, and his body smelled of blood. You are a boudoir girl, it is not a good thing to always be close to him."

Nan Baoyi said crisply: "Grandmother, don't worry, the misunderstanding between me and my second brother has been resolved. We are good brothers and sisters who are affectionate and affectionate, and we will definitely not mess around like rumors. What's more, we are hated by the Cheng family, and we need Rely on the power of the second brother."

After thinking about it for a while, the old lady could understand this truth.

When Xiao Yi was put in confinement last time, his maid, Yu Wei, ran over and tearfully stated his repentance. It is expected that he has indeed accepted his love for Jiaojiao.

She smiled and said: "Forget it, I won't pursue this matter. I'm happy today, and our family will have a reunion dinner to celebrate. Tomorrow, Cheng's family will come, so we have to cheer up and deal with it."

“Grandma is so nice!”

Nan Baoyi hugged her knee happily.

At dinner, Nan Baoyi got up and drank half a cup of rice wine.

Feeling dizzy, he was helped by the lotus leaf to the dormitory. The earth dragon was burning in the room and it was very hot.

She took advantage of the opportunity of He Ye to go next door to serve hangover soup, wrapped in a red rabbit fur cloak, brought up a lantern, and cheerfully went to Chaowenyuan to look for Xiao Yi.

At this time, the night was getting darker and the snow was about to come.

Xiao Yi casually wore a loose black sable fur cloak, and was sitting under the window, wiping the sword carefully with a velvet cloth.

Suddenly there was a knocking sound outside the window.

He pushed open the window, and Nan Baoyi was lying on the window sill, his little face was flushed from the cold, and his eyes were shining.

The four eyes are facing each other.

The little girl said sweetly: "Second brother, I invite you to watch the snow!"
