Chapter 28

"My grandfather should have come." Xu Mingyi said.

"Yes." Wu Tsung nodded, and he heard it.

Seeing him standing where he was, Xu Mingyi was silent for a moment and said: "... Is that childe Wu going?"

Did he think they could stand here together and wait for her grandfather without being misunderstood?

Wu Tsung was silent for a moment.

He didn't think so much for the moment.

His upbringing since childhood made him subconsciously feel that the Duke of Zhenguo came, and as a younger generation, there was no reason to deliberately avoid it.

It was his negligence.

"Farewell."

He whispered and turned away.

The big bird followed him step by step.

Before one person and one bird could walk away, the voice behind them came into our ears.

"Grandpa."

"How can you stay here alone and ask the girls to keep so far... What if you fall asleep again and knock and bump?"

"I felt a little stuffy in the room, so I came to the garden and slept for most of the day. Now I'm in good spirits."

Wu Chiu didn't listen carefully to this ordinary conversation between his grandparents and grandchildren, and he didn't stop at his feet.

However, the girl's next sentence attracted his attention.

"Grandpa, this silk fan is a gift from the queen. Do you think it looks good?"

——Aunt?

Wu Tsui subconsciously stopped and his eyes moved.

Xu Mingyi is the legitimate girl of the government of the town. It's not unusual for my aunt to give me some things.

It's strange that a little girl asked her grandfather who was thick and could fight a gang of bandits and thieves alone with a big knife... How nice is a fan for her daughter's family?

Although the girl laughed a little silly, it can be seen from her few words that she was a thoughtful girl.

Wu Tsun Hsin had a guess and stood where he was and listened attentively.

"HMM... it's beautiful. It's perfect for Zhaozhao." in the corridor, the Duke of the town also took the fan seriously and looked at it carefully for a moment - it's nothing to break 50 fans at a time. If you were young, you could have more.

"Grandpa, you see, there is also a line of small characters embroidered on it. It is warm and beneficial in the end. Shu is careful about her body... And the word" Shen "seems to be deeper than other words."

Seeing his granddaughter, he pointed it out to himself. The Duke of Zhen, who had no insight in this regard, could only cooperate and nodded his head seriously.

"Grandpa, do you think the empress wants to borrow this fan to remind us of the town government?"

The sudden turn of the subject changed the Duke's face.

"Zhaozhao, you can't talk nonsense."

"I just think it's possible." Xu Mingyi lowered his voice a little and said, "this fan was sent on the day you returned to Beijing. Maybe it was the empress who noticed something in the palace that gave this reminder."

The Duke's eyes changed for a moment.

Then he said, "Zhaozhao should have thought too much. That's the queen."

"It's the empress. That's right." Xu Mingyi said, "but the empress's surname is Wu."

The town looked at the granddaughter in front of it.

"Both Wu and Xu families are important officials for the founding of the country. Although the Xu family is in the capital and the Wu family is in Ningyang, the situation is still similar. If something happens to the Xu family and the situation is unbalanced, the Wu family may not be able to survive even if it has a deep foundation." Xu Mingyi's voice is low but clear: "This time, Wang Shisun of Dingnan was called into Beijing and met mountain bandits on the way. These two things may be worth thinking about carefully."

"Zhaozhao, who told you these words?" the Duke of the town looked a little inquisitive.

"My granddaughter figured it out by herself and never mentioned it to anyone else." Xu Mingyi said, "if my grandfather thinks he can listen, listen."

In the night, Wu Tsung's expression moved.

Sure enough, it was deliberately told to him——

It is to remind the Wu family not to be careless, but also to remind him to be more defensive in Beijing.

But why did she show him such kindness?

In this world, there will never be goodwill for no reason, not to mention that Xu and Wu are incompatible.

Wu Tsui thought carefully for a moment, and his face was inexplicably different.

I just saw you, this girl

He stopped himself from thinking deeply about the chilling possibility, raised his feet and strode away.

Took two steps, but suddenly stopped.

He looked at what he had in his hand——

I forgot to return it to her just now.

Women's jewelry is personal. It would be impolite for him to take it away.

Thinking so, I raised my hand and wanted to throw it out.

no way.

If someone picks it up and makes any trouble carelessly, which hinders her reputation, she will inevitably blame him.

It's just that he should keep it first and return it to her when he finds a chance in the future.

Xu Mingyi listened attentively for a moment, determined that the footsteps were far away and settled down in his heart.

In this case, Zhenguo looked at his granddaughter in a mixed mood.

The girls in other families have nothing to do, they are thinking about women's Rouge jewelry, and his granddaughter

"I'll take these words to heart when Zhaozhao grows up. I'll worry about everything in the family with your father. Now you just need to relax and take care of yourself. Don't worry about the rest."

"Grandpa, I'm 16 years old and I'm no longer a child. When Grandpa was 16 years old, he began to raise people, take the people's grievances and worry about the affairs of the world -" Xu Mingyi's eyes were firm and said: "Zhaozhao is no more worried about life than his grandfather. Now he just wants to do something for his family.

I know my grandfather is not willing to ask me to worry about this. He always just wants me to grow up carefree and live happily. But if it's difficult to keep my home safe, what else? "

The Duke of the town was surprised.

In his eyes, he did not think that as a daughter, the family should be bound to the house. Just as Zhaozhao said, he was "not willing". In his eyes, it was his responsibility as the head of the family to protect the government.

The child is not only sensible, but also considerate of his mood.

The Duke of the town sighed with complexity and relief.

"I haven't seen him for a year. I don't know when Zhaozhao has understood these."

Xu Mingyi looked at the old man with gray hair.

She and her grandfather haven't seen each other for more than a year.

"Well, Zhaozhao is no longer a child. Let's have a heart to heart talk today." the Duke of the town sat down by the porch and waved to his granddaughter.

Xu Mingyi sat next to him with a smile.

The grandparents and grandchildren talked about the Chaoju from home. Xu Mingyi looked at the old man around him with great peace of mind.

She has the best grandfather in the world. He not only loves her and dotes on her, but also knows how to listen to her. As long as she makes some sense, his grandfather will seriously listen to her, objectively change her, and no longer regard her as a child who knows nothing.

"By the way, didn't grandpa discuss business with some gentlemen in the outer study? Why did he come here?"

Hearing his granddaughter's question, the Duke of town suddenly remembered his purpose of coming to the garden.

"By the way... I'm looking for the young man in the front yard! Have you seen him?"

He went to the front yard to ask someone. When he learned that the other party had come to stroll in the garden, he chased him.

Xu Mingyi didn't answer and asked, "I don't know what my grandfather is looking for him?"

"Everything has been in a hurry these two days, and he hasn't had time to find out his family background -" before the matter is determined, he can't tell his granddaughter about the speculation that he doesn't know whether it is true or not.

However, the girl beside him said calmly, "he... My granddaughter asked. He is Wang Shisun of Dingnan."
