Chapter 23 Sweet Sister
The servants quickly brought the brazier and placed it in front of the two masters, and then handed the grapefruit leaves in their hands to the old housekeeper.
"Sweep, make sure to sweep up all the dirty things."
The old housekeeper muttered while sweeping the grapefruit leaves on Xiao Yichen and Su Qingtian, and then ordered someone to bring water boiled with the leaves for the two masters to wash their hands.
"Come you two."
Two strong soldiers were called, and they lifted Xiao Yichen's wheelchair from the side and stepped over the brazier.
In fact, Xiao Yichen could definitely use his strength to leap over the brazier, but the old housekeeper would definitely not let him make such a dangerous move, so he didn't mention it much.
Even now, it is very dangerous for the elderly to lift the brazier manually. However, the Xiao family's bad luck and the young master's poor health can still bring some relief to everyone.
Seeing Xiao Yichen landing safely, the old housekeeper was about to carry Su Qingtian across the brazier, but who knew that the little girl actually jumped directly over the brazier.
The light figure fell steadily and turned to look at the red-hot charcoal.
The dangerous behavior made the old housekeeper sweat on his head. Seeing that Su Qingtian showed no fear at all, and her chubby little face was still flushed by the firelight, he burst into laughter.
The Xiao family has had bad luck in recent years, and the courtyard has become lifeless with the fate. It has been a long time since children and adults have seen such a vibrant scene.
The old man looked at Su Qingtian raising her hands and stretching, and her eyes became more loving.
"Little miss, are you sleepy?"
My young lady looked tired. It seemed that she was tired from this trip. The old housekeeper bent down and asked softly, "I will send you back to your room to sleep for a while. Will I call you again during dinner?"
Unexpectedly, the little girl yawned and shook her head, looking at Xiao Yichen with sleepy eyes.
"I promised my uncle that I would visit cousin Nan when I come back. Qingtian can't break my promise and get fat."
Xiao Yichen was stunned. He didn't expect that the little girl would always remember what they said before. Even after experiencing such a terrible case, she would not forget the small promise to him.
Xiao Yichen felt guilty when he thought about misunderstanding her before.
"Little Gongsun just drank the medicine and fell asleep."
The old housekeeper didn't know about the little agreement between uncle and nephew. He just felt sorry for the young lady and wanted her to go to bed quickly. "Little lady, go and sleep for a while. When you wake up, the little grandson will naturally wake up too. Then you can go to bed again."
Let’s talk together.”
Since Cousin Nan slept with Su Qingtian, she no longer insisted. She nodded and stretched out her arms towards the old housekeeper for a hug.
Children's bodies are really troublesome. They can't take more than two steps and use their brains to make them gasp for breath.
Although the old butler was old, he was full of energy. He happily hugged the soft little body on his shoulders. After taking a few steps, the little master on his shoulders began to breathe evenly, as if he was about to fall asleep.
The little man's trust in him also made the old housekeeper feel soft. He usually walked in the wind and immediately slowed down his steps. He didn't dare to walk too fast now. It would be wrong if he woke up the little master.
Along the way, the old housekeeper signaled with his hands to keep the servants quiet. He placed Su Qingtian safely on his soft couch and gave a few instructions to the maid before leaving in a hurry.
The soft quilt made Su Qingtian sleep very comfortably. She lay stretched out on the bed and fell asleep for who knows how long.
It wasn't until an annoying thing kept poking her cheek that Su Qingtian gradually woke up from her sleep.
hateful!
This annoying guy must be my little uncle who loves to tease me!
Su Qingtian grabbed the hand that was teasing her, opened her eyes suddenly, turned over and got up.
There was no annoying little uncle in front of him. Instead, there was just a thin little boy with a pair of huge eyes full of cyan. He was looking at the wrist he grabbed with aggrieved eyes, and mist gradually gathered in his eyes.
.
well……?
This one seems to be her cheap and unlucky cousin Nan.
Seeing that the little boy was about to cry out in pain, Su Qingtian quickly let go of her hand. Looking at the fingerprints on the thin wrist, she looked at Xiao Nan embarrassedly and let out an awkward laugh.
"Hehe, Cousin Nan, that... hehehe."
The bone-chilling pain on his wrist made Xiao Nan want to cry, but when he heard Su Qingtian's soft and sweet voice calling his cousin Nan, he instantly felt that it didn't hurt that much anymore.
The little sister must have been sleepy and pinched herself because she was scared.
Such a cute and well-behaved girl will definitely not hurt herself.
Just thinking like this, Xiao Nan's big eyes hid the tears and looked at Su Qingtian motionless with bright eyes.
When he was in private school, the annoying Yuan Dalong had always praised his biological sister in front of him, saying how well-behaved, obedient, and very capable she was, making all the boys who had no sisters envious of her.
Now he also has a sister, and his sister is much more powerful than Yuan Dalong's family.
At noon, I heard someone say that if my little cousin hadn't gotten rid of the big monster last night, I might have gone to the underworld to meet my mother.
Unfortunately, the servants refused to say a word, so Xiao Nan had to rely on imagination to guess what this little cousin looked like.
Now that he finally saw her in person, Xiao Nan suddenly became excited, grabbed Su Qingtian's little hand and shouted affectionately.
"Sweet sister."
Su Qingtian couldn't help but shudder at this sudden address.
Looking at the sincere look on the little boy's face, she held back a second shiver.
never mind……
Little child, let him be...
"Sister Sweetie, grandpa said he would take us out to play after dinner."
Xiao Nan couldn't help but smile brightly when she thought that she had not stepped out of her room for a long time and finally had the chance to go out and play again.
"Sister Tiantian, you must go with me, I have a lot of fun things to show you."
When Su Qingtian heard that she could go out to play, she turned over and quickly put the clothes on the side on her body.
Xiao Nan looked at her little cousin's movements in one go and couldn't help but open her eyes wide in surprise, and clapped her hands subconsciously.
Sister Tiantian is indeed very powerful. Starting tomorrow, he will also learn to wear clothes independently.
Although Xiao Nan is several years older than Su Qingtian, he has not been very healthy these years. In order to preserve the future generations of the Xiao family, General Xiao is also very worried about this little grandson. Many things are left to his servants to prevent the little boy from having any problems.
Chance of injury.
At this time, the maid waiting outside the door heard the noise and came in immediately. When she saw the young master getting up, she immediately brought warm water for washing. She took turns helping the two young masters to wash up, and then took them to the side hall for dinner.
When she stepped outside, Su Qingtian realized that she had slept for a very long time. She slept for an entire afternoon and night as soon as she lay down. It was already the morning of the second day. No wonder Xiao Nan came to wake her up.
