The other noble ladies really gathered around him.
"Princess, thank you girl, don't act like that little brat." They comforted each other.
After all, with the words of the princess just now, no one dares to guess whether what Cao Zirou said is true or false.
What's more, the princess, Yong Yehou and Jiang Xiaoran usually get close to each other because of Xie Yinxiang.
The four of them have a good relationship, and there are often rumors about them that make no sense.
A noble lady pondered and wondered: "Her tone seemed to be a trick. Could it be that she likes Mr. Jiang Xiaohou and is using this method to test whether Miss Xie is also interested?"
Others immediately agreed: "It's possible! It's not uncommon for a cousin to marry her cousin."
"But I heard that cousin Cao's parents have died and her family is in ruins. She is a helpless duckweed. How can she marry into Jiang's house?"
"If she can't be a wife, she can be a concubine. This kind of person, in my mother's words, won't let go even if she finds a tree trunk to hug. It's so scary!"
They were chattering and began to discuss how to deal with the concubines.
Gu Nuoer's delicate little face looked at Xie Yinxiang with watery eyes, and found that her expression was serious from beginning to end.
The little girl stretched out her hand and patted her: "Sister Yinxiang, don't let a bad guy affect your mood."
Xie Yinxiang shook his head slightly.
She lowered her voice and said to Gu Nuo'er: "Nuo'er, I saw the look on Cao Zirou's face just now. It was so strange!"
"She spoke clearly with a sense of grievance, but the expression on her face was so vicious and her eyes were so sinister that it made me feel cold all over!"
Xie Yunxiang frowned and thought: "I think she has bad intentions."
No wonder Gu Nuoer reminded her to be wary of this cousin last time.
Hearing this, Gu Nuoer's eyes flickered towards the red string on Xie Yinxiang's wrist.
She replied with a smile: "Yes, I can't tell you that she has ulterior motives! We are not afraid of her. We will deal with her at first sight. If she dares to attack, we will deal with her!"
However, Xiaolu is so useful!
Over there at the men's table.
Because of his noble status and being a celebrity in front of the emperor and princess, Ye Siming was the center of attention wherever he went.
Just now, he and Jiang Xiaoran were drinking with a table of classmates and friends.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaoran led him to meet his grandfather alone, Mr. Jiang Laohou.
"My grandfather has wanted to see you for a long time. He heard that you are invincible in battles and that you are General Bai's adopted son. He has asked me to introduce him many times. I was afraid that you would not have time. Today happens to be the best time for you to come with me to meet the old man.
"
As Jiang Xiaoran spoke, he smiled brilliantly and said with charming eyes: "Si Ming, my grandfather spoke straightforwardly and in a strong tone. After a while, he said something unpleasant. Give me some face and don't argue with him."
Ye Siming has a tall and straight figure, walks steadily, and has long eyebrows with a hint of ghostliness.
He raised his eyebrows and said in a calm tone: "My left ear goes in and my right ear goes out. I don't mind what he says."
Jiang Xiaoran chuckled and said: "Occasionally you still have to reply with 'um' and 'oh' to fool him."
The two were talking when suddenly a call came from behind -
"Mr. Jiang."
Ye Siming and Jiang Xiaoran turned around and saw a girl in a beautiful dress walking quickly with a worried look on her face.
Ye Siming didn't recognize her, but Jiang Xiaoran saw her and frowned involuntarily.
"Miss Guan San, why did you come here?"
Further back, there is the inner garden of their Jiang Mansion. This is not a place for foreign guests!
Miss Guan San was at a loss: "My brother and I got lost. He can't be found anywhere. I didn't come here intentionally. Mr. Jiang, can you take me back to the banquet?"
