Xiao Ze dragged Nangong Waner back to Assistant Minister’s Residence, the couple seemed to be as friendly and passionate as they could get when they saw Xiao Ze.
Xiao Ze did not feel uncomfortable either, as he responded to the Assistant Minister couple courteously.
"Xiao Ze, it's been hard on you. Send Wan Er back. Are you thirsty? "Come, let Aunty pour you a glass of water." Madam Yang very familiarly poured a cup of water and placed it in front of Xiao Ze.
Xiao Ze took the cup and drank it all in one gulp, then said with a smile, "Aunt is too kind, it was nothing more than a small effort."
"Xiao Ze, come, let's have a chat. Is the Ministry of Justice busy recently? Are you tired? Is there anything troubling you that you can interact with uncle? Uncle might be able to help you open your mind. " Lord Assistant Minister looked at Xiao Ze and asked with a smile.
"Alright, alright. What business are we talking about? This is a family matter, a private one." Madam Yang glared at Lord Assistant Minister unhappily, as if the latter had realized that he was not good at speaking in such situations, and quickly lowered his head and did not say anything else.
Xiao Ze had never seen such a cheerful couple, smiling at the Assistant Minister couple.
Nangong Waner frowned a little. His originally bored mood had become somewhat excited by the Assistant Minister couple, and now he was frowning as he looked at them, "Father, mother, is this the result of many years of begging for sons?"
As expected, the Lord Assistant Minister once again gave Nangong Waner a harsh shout.
Even Master Zhang, who occasionally came to the Assistant Minister’s Residence to deliver food, knew that the Assistant Minister couple wanted Xiao Ze to be their son-in-law. Nangong Waner, who was the person involved, didn't notice that Nangong Waner was still blabbering nonsense, thinking that Madam Yang had some unfulfilled dream about giving birth to a son.
Nangong Ruyu sighed deeply, "Sigh, I was wrong to blame big sister previously. I thought she had been pretending to be crazy for so many years, but never would I have thought that she had never completely recovered from her silly illness."
"Ruyu, eat some more food. Parents are always the same. We can't even take care of our own daughters, we'll have to work hard in the future." With that, Nangong Waner sorrowfully took a piece of meat from Nangong Ruyu's bowl.
Nangong Ruyu smiled as he ate it.
Without any surprises, the Lord Assistant Minister once again gave Nangong Waner a hard time. "All day long, you talk nonsense, don't you look like a girl who hasn't left the pavilion?" Lord Assistant Minister looked at Nangong Waner and felt that she was very disappointing.
Xiao Ze only felt that it was interesting, the way she looked at Nangong Waner was full of laughter, straight to the bottom of his heart.
When Xiao Ze looked at Nangong Waner, Madam Yang also secretly looked at him. Thus, Madam Yang's eyes were filled with laughter, as though he was very satisfied.
At night, the Assistant Minister couple were so excited they couldn't sleep. Madam Yang told Lord Assistant Minister what he saw earlier. Lord Assistant Minister was very happy, the two talked until late at night and didn't sleep.
"In the past few days, I have also participated in many of the wives' gatherings. Not only did my mother tell me this, even Old General Wen's wife also said that the Xiao Residence was intending to become relatives with the justice court's Lord Sun family. Otherwise, with Xiao Ze's condition, how could there not be a matchmaker present?" Madam Yang worriedly asked.
He definitely would not listen to Old Xiao's decision. Moreover, according to what you said, Xiao Ze is really interested in us Wan Er, so Old Xiao can only cut off his own thoughts on this path. " The Lord Assistant Minister patted the back of Madam Yang's hand as if he was comforting him.
"Children always need the blessings of their parents in order to be happier. Thus, I have also seen Madam Xiao and am a gentle person. If we, Wan Er, were to marry her, we probably wouldn't be angered much, right? In order to leave us with a way out for Wan Er, on the surface, I didn't intentionally get closer to Lady Xiao, so as to prevent us, Wan Er, from being unable to get married out. "
Hearing Madam Yang's words, the Lord Assistant Minister nodded his head in agreement.
In a courtyard within the same house, Nangong Waner was also tossing and turning on his bed, unable to fall asleep. "Sigh, I've already prepared everything, but just a few words of gossip caused my mind to be thrown into chaos."
Slowly, Nangong Waner got up from the bed, put on a coat and got up.
Nangong Waner sat on the stone steps in the courtyard again, looking at the night sky in a daze. Nangong Waner surveyed the sky above the courtyard unwittingly, as if he could faintly see a black shadow floating on the roof. Nangong Waner rubbed his eyes and took a closer look, the tranquil night sky was not covered by a single cloud, "Sigh, I'm already at the edge of my limits, sadness and such really do not suit me. After saying that, he stood up, dusted off the dust on his body and went back to his room to sleep.
Inside the Hundred Incense Pavilion, Su Xiangxiang had just finished her bath and was lying down on her bed, ready to sleep. Su Xiangxiang's maid, Peaches, turned off the lights, closed the door, and left the room.
In the darkness, Su Xiangxiang faintly felt that someone was standing in front of the Eight Immortals Table, and didn't panic in the slightest. She stood up and leaned against the bed's railing without adding a single piece of clothing, and no matter whether she looked from afar or near, Su Xiangxiang at this moment was very fitting of her name, she was extremely charming!
The black clothed man in front of the Eight Immortals Table did not seem to have moved, his voice was extremely cold as he said, "There's still a bit of time yet to come. In a few days, I will inform you that you will personally meet with Nangong Waner."
Su Xiangxiang played with the bottom part of her dress as if he was not paying attention at all, and replied her softly, "Alright, Young Noble."
Seeing that the black-robed Young Master was still unmoved, Su Xiangxiang walked down with his feet bare in his thin clothes. That thin clothes were extremely clean, and if it was daytime right now, Su Xiangxiang would probably be in his most unclothed state.
Su Xiangxiang twisted his body and leaned over, gently extending his leg to wrap himself around the black-clothed young master's waist, "What did young master want to help me with? Then, what benefits does it have for Young Master for Nangong Waner and Prince Zhan to not be together? "
When Su Xiangxiang approached her, the black clad young master had already started to loathe her fragrance, as he had to resist the urge to walk away. However, after smelling the fragrance, he suddenly narrowed his eyes, as if he had thought of something, and a curve appeared on his lips.
When he looked at Su Xiangxiang's fair and slender legs that were about to wrap around him, the black-clothed young master's face revealed a sneer and he pushed Su Xiangxiang away.
Su Xiangxiang was slightly stunned. She had prepared to send a plate of her own meat to someone else, yet was directly rejected outside the door. She didn't feel awkward at all as she attempted to go over again.
At this time, Su Xiangxiang also looked at the black-clothed young master. He saw that Su Xiangxiang's eyes seemed to have a bottomless whirlpool, as he completely sucked the black-clothed young master in.
"Interesting, I was wondering why Chu Xiuhan would fall for you, so it turns out that you have learnt the Charm Spell, interesting, interesting." The black-clothed young master fiercely pushed Su Xiangxiang away, while he himself disappeared into thin air.
Su Xiangxiang was pushed to the ground, but she was not annoyed, she felt that the black-clothed man was not like an ordinary person. Although she had never seen the complete appearance of the black-clothed young master, but with her understanding of men, from the looks of his appearance, the black-clothed young master must have been a celestial being, and his cultivation must have been extremely high as well, "Sooner or later, I won't let you escape my grasp. Su Xiangxiang said very confidently.
