Six-Year-Old Child, Baojiao, is Busy with Kingdom-Building - Chapter 425
Chapter 425 Song Donglai Mansion
About two quarters later,
Jiaojiao looked at the mess of chess pieces on the chessboard, her mouth slightly pursed.
Lost again.
Miaomiao couldn’t understand these things, seeing that there were no chess pieces, she cautiously asked, “Jiaojiao, who won this round?”
Jiaojiao: “…”
Suddenly, a servant girl’s voice came from outside.
“Miss, shopkeeper Song from the front hall is here, but the master, wife, and master are not here.”
Jiaojiao heard about Song Dong, got up and hugged Miaomiao and walked out the door.
“Got it, I’ll go there.”
Miaomiao in his arms breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, as long as he doesn’t let him play chess, he can do anything.
Front lobby,
When Jiaojiao came, Song Dong stood up with a smile and saluted, “Song Dong met the princess.”
Miss Baojiao canonized the princess. He heard that he originally wanted to visit and congratulate her, but the Wang family was sent to the palace to attend the banquet. When they came back yesterday, the emperor was assassinated.
Just now, when I went to the good medicine store, I heard that the young master had come, and asked him to come to the house, so he hurried over.
Unexpectedly, the young master, the old lady, and the others are not at home, only Miss Jiaojiao is there.
“Brother Song, don’t call me the princess, your family is welcome.”
Jiaojiao smiled naively, put Miaomiao aside, raised her hand to invite Song Dong to sit down, and ordered to the maid outside: “Serve some more fruit and snacks.”
Seeing this, Song Dong’s brows and eyes were full of relief, and he said with a smile, “Thank you, Miss Song Dong.”
After the two sat down, Jiaojiao asked curiously: “Brother Song, are you here for something?”
Song Dong nodded and replied: “The eldest young master let you come to the house, there should be some important matters to discuss, the specific matters are not yet known.”
Jiaojiao nodded and said with a smile: “Brother Song, brother is getting engaged soon, it may be related to this matter.”
Song Dong showed surprise, and subconsciously asked, “Which family is it?”
Jiaojiao didn’t hide it either, and said happily: “Si Mingyue, the daughter of Lord Shangshusi of the Ministry of War, is a very gentle and beautiful sister.”
Song Dong was stunned after hearing this name.
He has been in the capital for the past few years, but he knows something about the young master. Princess Jinyuan chases after him, but the young master has a woman he likes, whose name seems to be Mingyue.
These two have known each other for several years. He thought she was just an ordinary woman, but he didn’t expect to be the daughter of the minister of the Ministry of War. Now that the young master is the number one scholar, given time, he will definitely succeed. The two identities are also a good match.
It is good to be engaged.
Song Dong smiled and said, “Happy event, great happy event.”
Just as he was talking, Qiu Sheng’s voice came from outside the courtyard.
“Brother Song is here.”
Song Dong got up when he heard this, walked towards the door, bowed and smiled, “I’ve seen the young master.”
“Brother Song, you’re welcome, get up.”
Qiu Sheng smiled and helped him up, “They are all from my own family, so you don’t need to pay attention to these things.”
Song Dong was grateful in his heart, and his face was full of sincere smiles, “There are so many servants in the house, and there are no rules and regulations. As a member of the family, Song Dong must be an example.”
The Wang family praised him and didn’t care about these etiquettes, but he knew his identity, and etiquette was the last thing to be sloppy.
Qiu Sheng smiled helplessly when he heard this, “I can’t say no to Brother Song every time.”
Patted him on the shoulder, took him to a seat,
Seeing this, Jiaojiao called out: “Brother.”
Qiu Sheng was so busy talking to Song Dong that he didn’t even notice his sister was here. Hearing the sound, he got up with a smile and walked over to him, stroking his sister’s head.
“Brother didn’t even look at you, why is Jiaojiao here?”
Song Dong helped to explain: “I came to the house, but Uncle and Aunt Wang were not here, so the servant girl invited Miss Jiaojiao.”
Qiu Sheng smiled, touched the back of the little girl’s head, and praised: “Our Jiaojiao has really grown up, and she can greet people by herself.”
Song Dong also smiled and echoed, “Jiaojiao has indeed grown up a lot.”
Jiaojiao smiled embarrassedly, and didn’t bother the two of them discussing matters. She got up and said, “Brother, talk to Brother Song. I’ll take Miao Miao for a walk.”
“Well, let’s go.” Qiu Sheng smiled.
Miao Miao heard that she jumped off the opposite chair and lazily walked out the door.
Jiaojiao followed and left.
Song Dong then asked: “What do you want, Eldest Young Master?”
Qiu Sheng did not beat around the bush, and directly ordered: “Propose 200 taels of gold from the bank, and prepare 50,000 taels of silver, and purchase the dowry according to the highest standards of the Jin Dynasty. You will supervise the whole process, and try to complete it within seven days.”
Song Dong replied with a smile upon hearing this: “Yes, congratulations, young master.”
Qiu Sheng smiled casually when he saw this, and said: “I think Jiaojiao has already told you, so I won’t say more, and we will help welcome the bride together, and we won’t go home until we’re drunk.”
“Haha, good, it seems that Song Dong should prepare some money…”
…
Jiaojiao and Miaomiao wandered around the yard boredly.
Miaomiao suggested: “Jiaojiao, your parents are all going out to buy things, or else we’ll go shopping in the streets. It’s really boring to stay in this house.”
Jiaojiao glanced at the gate, and before she left, Mother gave her ten thousand warnings not to let her run around, saying that there was a commotion outside.
Thinking of what she promised her mother, Jiaojiao shook her head and said: “It’s almost noon, mother and sister will be back in a while, father and mother will go to Si’s house to apply for a letter of appointment in the afternoon, there is no one in the house, let’s go to the pharmacy with Brother Song, and take meow Meow eat some rare delicacies.”
Miao Miao had no choice but to give up when she heard that, and replied: “Okay, I will listen to Jiaojiao.”
Miaomiao thought of that Jianjia, and persuaded him: “By the way, Jiaojiao, you should replace that Jianjia. It is ignorant for a woman to fall in love. Don’t let that Princess Shengyuan use it against us.”
Jiaojiao stopped when she heard this, shook her head and said seriously: “Jian Jia will not betray me, she has always been considerate and kind, but the person she likes is wrong, she treats me so well, I can’t just abandon her like this.”
Meow meow choked, thinking of what Jian Jia has done these years, it is undeniable that Jian Jia’s care and love for Jiao Jiao is no worse than that of her family.
But women are the most prone to emotional misunderstandings. Jiaojiao always feels uneasy when such a dangerous person is placed next to her.
After all, Jiaojiao is not a native human being. She has a pure heart. She has followed her masters through several lifetimes, and her hearts are unpredictable. Brothers even turn against each other, let alone two people who are not related by blood.
It has to help to check it well.
Thinking in her heart, Miaomiao pulled Jiaojiao’s clothes, and said earnestly: “Big Miao is someone who has been here, Jiaojiao had better ask her first, if she can make a clean break with the people from Princess Shengyuan, we will Don’t chase her away, save some more time to observe, but Jiaojiao should be more careful in the future, and don’t trust others too much.”
Jiaojiao picked up Miaomiao, smiled and stroked the cat’s head, and only Miaomiao was doing it for her own good, so she obediently responded, “Okay, listen to Miaomiao.”
Seeing that the person was being persuaded, Miaomiao hit the rails while it was hot: “Then let’s talk about it now. Jiaojiao felt sorry for her yesterday, and she was relieved all night. Today, she should be emotionally stable. If you say it early, you can feel at ease now. Make it clear, we can go out to play in the afternoon to our heart’s content, and we don’t have to keep these troublesome things in our hearts.”
