Chapter 208 Princess Aunt
These days, Zhen Jingxiu brought Su Jin to meet many scholars. Everyone asked him about his relationship with the Jiang Mansion. Su Jin did not hide it and said openly that it was his cousin's home.
He knew that two princesses were coming to the mansion today. He felt it was inappropriate to go back at this time.
He said to Xie Yunchen: "Jingxiu has an appointment with Mr. Lin today. Can we go together?"
Xie Yunchen heard Zhen Jingxiu and Su Jin mention Lin Xiangzhi, and he admired him very much before he met him.
He said straightforwardly: "Meeting is fate, and it is difficult to find a confidant. It is a blessing to meet someone like Mr. Lin who shares the same interests. Of course, we have to go together."
...
After entering the Jiang Mansion, Changle followed her sister closely. She couldn't help looking around. The mansion was bigger than she imagined. Although it was not as gorgeous as the royal mansion, the tall gatehouse, red walls and green tiles, it was not an ordinary house at first glance.
"Welcome to the two princesses."
When she walked into the hall, she saw a beautiful woman like a bright moon leading a group of people to greet them.
"Sister Jiang, please stand up quickly." As soon as Jiang Shuyue's knees touched the ground, Xiao Dai hurriedly helped her up with both hands.
Xiao Dai said to everyone again: "No need to be polite."
"Princess, please come in."
Jiang Shuyue looked at Xiao Dai's pair of phoenix eyes, her face was soft and delicate, and she sighed in her heart: "Sui Sui's grandmother's genes are really strong."
Changle's phoenix eyes rolled around, and no matter how hard she tried to find, she didn't see the little cutie who had appeared in her dreams countless times.
"Sister Jiang, is Sui Sui in the mansion?" Changle, who was dignified for only three breaths, couldn't help asking.
Looking at Princess Changle who looked very much like Sui Sui, Jiang Shuyue gently took her little hand, "Are you Princess Changle? Come in quickly, Sui Sui is playing in his second uncle's courtyard now, and I will ask him to come to meet the two princesses in a while."
"Hello, Miss Jiang, this is the gift from the Queen Mother and the two princesses, please accept it." Aunt Cai stepped forward and bowed to Jiang Shuyue.
Jiang Shuyue looked up and saw several palace maids holding exquisite gift boxes.
Xiao Dai introduced: "This is Aunt Cai, an old lady beside the Queen Mother."
Jiang Shuyue let go of Changle's hand and returned the greeting, "Aunt, please thank the Queen Mother on behalf of me."
Qiuju told the maids to take the gift box, and Jiang Shuyue led a group of people to the inner courtyard.
In the flower hall of Xingyue Courtyard, Jiang Shuyue had people prepare tea, cakes and fruit plates in advance.
After the two princesses took their seats, Lan'er led the maids to quickly serve tea, cakes and fruit plates.
"Qiuju, go and bring Suisui to meet the princess."
"I'll go right away." Qiuju took the order and left.
Xiao Dai was older after all, and she looked at Jiang Shuyue tenderly: "Sister Jiang, don't worry, we came here today, in fact, we want to see you more."
"That's right, the emperor brother always praises sister Jiang for how capable she is. In Changle's opinion, sister Jiang looks like a fairy, and the emperor brother should praise sister Jiang for her beauty first."
Changle is quick-witted, and Xiao Dai can't do anything about her, for fear that she will accidentally say something wrong.
Aunt Cai was blinking at Changle hard, but Changle didn't see it at all.
Jiang Shuyue smiled at Changle, "Thank you Princess Miao Zan, you are also beautiful."
"Hehe, mother said that I look most like my second brother. Sister Jiang means that the emperor brother is also good-looking, right?" Changle said with a bright smile, and that look really looked like Sui Sui's signature smile.
Jiang Shuyue: "..." This is not easy to respond.
Xiao Dai quickly changed the subject and said, "Mother always praised Sister Jiang's medical skills. If Sister Jiang hadn't helped, my elder brother would still be tortured by illness and would not have had the opportunity to meet Sister Su Hui."
Jiang Shuyue politely replied, "Princess, you are too polite. It is the duty of a doctor to cure diseases and save lives. I also received the consultation fee."
Seeing that Jiang Shuyue was more polite than close to her, Xiao Dai finally understood why her second brother was so cautious.
The woman in front of her had a stunning face and superb medical skills. I heard from my second brother that she also had business talent, which was definitely not comparable to ordinary boudoir girls.
For such a woman, what kind of man would be able to catch her eye? Xiao Dai secretly sweated for her second brother in her heart.
"Sister Jiang, we are relatives because of Sui Sui and Sister Su Hui. Let's not talk about those false etiquettes in the future, okay?"
For some reason, when Jiang Shuyue called herself a commoner, she was nervous, as if something had slipped away from her hand.
"Okay, when there are no outsiders, let's not talk about empty formalities."
Jiang Shuyue is not a hypocritical person. Since the princess has spoken, she is happy to be at ease.
Changle felt too awkward sitting in the flower hall. She stood up and said to Jing'er beside her: "Accompany me for a walk."
Xiao Dai was about to call her, but Aunt Cai bowed and said: "The young lady's mansion is very unique. I will go to visit it with you."
Jiang Shuyue gave Aunt Cai a thumbs up in her heart. She is worthy of being an old man next to the queen mother. The word "visit" covered up the fact that Princess Changle couldn't sit still.
Watching Aunt Cai chase out, Xiao Dai said generously: "Sister is young and lively. She must have gone to find Sui Sui."
Jiang Shuyue's eyes were gentle, "Princess Changle has a cheerful and generous personality. I like her very much."
Xiao Dai looked at Jiang Shuyue's gentle eyes, and a bold idea flashed through her mind.
It was inevitable that they were unfamiliar when they met for the first time, so Xiao Dai talked about Su Hui.
Xiao Dai did not act like a princess. She spoke gently, and her every frown and smile revealed the upbringing of a lady from a noble family.
Changle left the flower hall and looked towards the entrance of the courtyard.
"Jing'er, what do you think Suisui should call me?"
"Of course it's Aunt Huang." Jing'er answered without thinking.
"I'm quite excited to be an aunt for the first time." Changle said, standing on tiptoes and looking into the distance.
Aunt Cai caught up with her in three steps, took out a jade pendant with rich water content from her arms and stuffed it into Chang Le's hand, "Hold it for a while and put it on Suisui."
Aunt Cai originally wanted to call her the little prince, but the Queen Mother specifically told her not to worry. When the time comes, her little prince will recognize his ancestor and return to the family line.
The Queen Mother specially asked Aunt Cai to bring this jade pendant. Changle was so clumsy that he didn't dare to carry it for her.
On the other side, Suisui picked up the meat rabbit and walked towards Xingyue Courtyard on his short legs.
"Aunt Qiu Ju, when I see Aunt Princess soon, should I kneel down and kowtow?"
Qiu Ju thought for a while and said, "Don't kneel too quickly. As soon as the princess tells you to stand flat, you will stand up smoothly. The lady said that kneeling too much is bad for your knees."
In Jiang Mansion, Jiang Shuyue never allowed everyone to kneel down and worship. She was very opposed to kneeling down.
While talking, the two people quickly arrived outside Xingyue Courtyard.
"Aunt Qiu Ju, is that Aunt Huang? She seems not much older than me!"
Suisui turned to ask Qiu Ju as he spoke. He stepped on a pebble under his feet and staggered down.
"Sui Sui!"
Changle exclaimed and rushed over.
Qiu Ju had quick eyesight and quick hands. Just when Sui Sui's hand had just touched the ground, she reached out and grabbed Sui Sui's other arm.
