After Qiao Xiuli and the fourteenth prince Gu Zibei left, they returned home.
As soon as he dismounted, Ah Zhong, who was guarding the door, hurried up.
"Master, you are finally back, Miss Lan was caught stealing fish in the kitchen!"
Qiao Xiu stared coldly: "Stealing fish? Where is she now?"
A Zhong quickly led the way: "She was sent to the eldest lady's yard, young master, go take a look!"
Qiao Xiu lifted up his robe and hurried away immediately.
Entering his mother's yard, Qiao Xiuli heard his mother Yan Qimeng's laughter coming from inside the house.
"You child, can you do tricks?"
Lanlan said excitedly: "Yes, Madam, look at the tank, the fish has changed greatly!"
Afterwards, the people in the house, including the maid, all made exclamations.
Qiao Xiu froze from his brows and immediately pushed the door in.
I saw the eldest lady sitting there, Lanlan surrounding the white porcelain water tank in front of her.
Under her waving sleeve, a live crucian carp was swimming in the tank.
The eldest lady looked novel: "It's the first time I've seen a fish that has been disemboweled and still alive."
Lanlan smiled shyly: "It's just a trick, I didn't steal the fish on purpose, please don't be angry with me, Madam."
The eldest lady waved her hand and said with a smile: "How come, you are a guest of Xiu Li, that is, a guest of our Qiao Mansion."
Having said that, she looked up and saw Qiao Xiuli standing at the door, and immediately waved: "Xiu Li, you are back."
"Why didn't you tell me when you brought a friend home? You almost neglected the little girl."
Lanlan saw Qiao Xiuli, and even her standing posture suddenly became obedient.
She looked at him with almond eyes.
Qiao Xiu bowed his hands to the eldest lady, and said in a flat tone: "Mother, Miss Lan is only temporarily resting in the mansion, and she will leave in two days."
The eldest lady was stunned: "Only for two days? Alas! Miss Lan, what do you need these days, just call your servants."
Lan Lan quickly thanked.
Qiao Xiu said indifferently: "Mother, let's retire first."
Madam nodded, Qiao Xiu turned around and walked to the door, looking back to see Lanlan still looking at the crucian carp in the tank.
He frowned and reminded: "Lanlan, it's time to go."
Only then did Lanlan come back to her senses, and she reluctantly said goodbye to the eldest lady, and quickly followed Qiao Xiuli's footsteps and left the yard.
Seeing that they were all gone, a meaningful chuckle appeared on Da Furen's face.
She shook the fan in her hand and smiled with the big maid beside her, "What kind of tricks, I think, it's the girl that Xiu Li likes, I'm sorry to say it!"
Qiao Xiuli took Lanlan back to his yard and entered the house with her.
"Lanlan, I reminded you not to use your immortal art in front of others. If others know your true identity, it may cause trouble for yourself." Qiao Xiu's tone was rather cold.
Lanlan looks like a child who has done something wrong.
She lowered her head, pinching her fingertips uneasily.
"But that's Li Li's mother. I believe her. Besides, they said I was a trick. Although I didn't understand it, I nodded and admitted it along with their words."
"Don't be angry with you, I will pay more attention next time."
Qiao Xiu said with a deep breath, "I'm not angry, I just think that you are not suitable for this place."
Hearing this, Lanlan raised her head suddenly, looking at him sadly.
After a while, the little girl lowered her eyelashes again lonely.
"I'm so stupid, I always forget Lili's instructions."
