Ming Lanruo endured her shame and said expressionlessly: "What about that? I have to go back to see Xiao Xi..."
"Isn't your son going to the palace to accompany the Queen Mother?" Cang Qiao narrowed her eyes and exposed her lies without politeness.
Ming Lanruo choked: "..."
It was a mistake. Although she agreed to let Xiao Xi accompany the Queen Mother before leaving the palace, Cang Qiao, as the governor of the East Factory, could not hide the matters in the palace from him.
Ming Lanruo coughed lightly: "I didn't forget it for a while."
Although she thought that he would treat his illness in exchange for his protection, she did not want to spend too much unclear time with Cang Qiao in private.
Cang Qiao didn't bother to expose her this time. After all, she scolded Shangguan Hongye away, which made him feel very good.
"Next time you dare to lie to our family, you won't be able to pass the test so easily."
Ming Lanruo lowered her eyes and tried to change the subject: "Since you are here, you can save me from having to go to Dongchang again to check my pulse, right?"
Cang Qiao lazily raised his wrist and rested it on her thigh: "Yeah."
Today he was wearing a plain white cloud-patterned tapestry robe, and his long hair was tied casually on top of his head with a white jade crown and then let down.
If you don't look at the sinister look on his brows, his jade-like face looks like the heirloom of Wang Jue's family.
Ming Lanruo looked at the hand on her thigh, resisted the urge to shake his hand away, silently lifted his sleeve for him, put her fingers on his wrist, and began to feel his pulse.
Feeling that his pulse had stabilized a lot, she was stunned for a moment: "What good thing has happened these days to allow Mr. Qiantose to rest so well?"
Cang Qiao looked at her and smiled: "Because the free-range cats have been very good recently, they scratched away a male cat who came to the house and was in heat."
Ming Lanruo: "Ah...oh, maybe they are a couple."
Listening to his nonsense, this man is not as caring as someone who can keep pets, and he even scratched the male cat away.
Cang Qiao grabbed her wrist with his backhand and said sullenly: "Do you think they are a couple?"
Ming Lanruo was confused: "I don't know. If you don't like your cat being taken away by another male cat, then you can find a veterinarian for sterilization."
She did know that there was a veterinarian in the alley of Beixiang, Beijing, who was the best at grooming animals.
Cang Qiao looked at her silly, charming and round eyes, and suddenly couldn't help but laugh.
He lazily scratched her chin with his fingertips: "That won't work, our family is still thinking of letting that kitten give birth to a few cubs for me."
When he gets better and tames her disobedient kitten, sooner or later she will have a few of his babies in her belly.
Ming Lanruo narrowed her eyes when he scratched her chin, avoided his hand, and couldn't help but blush. Is this uncle planning to breed his free-range female cat?
"Is that a Western Persian cat in your house?" She was a little curious.
Cang Qiao hooked the tail of her soft hair and played with it: "Yes, the breed is extremely precious, and only those unscrupulous male cats can get their hands on it."
Only he can enjoy it.
Ming Lanruo smiled: "Okay, as long as you are happy."
This man is so domineering that he has to control even a cat strictly.
"That's what you said." Cang Qiao suddenly smiled, charmingly.
Ming Lanruo was so annoyed by him that she thought to herself that it was none of his business if his cat was bred like this, so what did it have to do with her.
But while she was giving him the needle, she still said perfunctorily: "Yeah, yeah, if you have nothing to do, take a rest, take a nap, and stop talking."
Cang Qiao didn't care about her perfunctory, she closed her eyes and rested in a good mood, and stopped talking.
The carriage drove for half an hour when it suddenly stopped.
The little eunuch outside said respectfully: "Master, we are here."
Cang Qiao got off the carriage and reached out to Ming Lanruo: "Come down."
