The brother and sister chatted for a few more words, and then heard the servant girl report that the master, wife and young masters had returned from the palace.
"Ren'er, you're not in good health yet, why didn't you go to bed earlier?" Looking at the two brothers and sisters who entered the room one after the other, Wang said helplessly, "And Bao'er, didn't mother tell me not to wait?" Did we come back?"
"Mother, my son sleeps too much during the day and can't sleep at night. Thinking that my sister's little bow is still a little short, I got up and finished it." Su Bingren replied in a low voice. In fact, his wind and cold have long been fine, it's just that he doesn't like the occasion of the palace banquet, so he doesn't go there for an excuse.
"Ren'er, Mother knows you like these things, and I don't object to you tinkering with them. It's just that you must not lose your mind, understand?" Hearing this, Mrs. Wang couldn't help admonishing her. Influenced by her family background, she always felt that it was proper for her son to devote his attention to his studies.
"Son understands, mother." Su Bingren bowed his head in a somewhat disappointed answer. Alas, the things he is obsessed with are always unworthy in the eyes of others.
"This is the little bow Fifth Brother made for Bao'er," Xiao Ranqing saw, took out the bow and handed it to Mrs. Wang, "Mother, take a look."
Mrs. Wang couldn't catch her daughter's eyes, so she took the exquisite bow and tried to pull it, "Huh?" Seeing his mother was puzzled, Su Bingren explained the principle to her again. Now Mrs. Wang was amazed that the fifth son had such a skill.
"Fifth brother is biased. The last time Huier asked you to be a puppet, you refused to do anything, but my sister didn't say anything, so you made her such a good bow." Su Binghui pouted and grabbed Su Bingren Regardless of his embarrassment, he yelled, "Hui'er wants a moving puppet, fifth brother, you can't shirk this time."
"Don't Fifth Brother make you a lot of gadgets?" Su Bingqian gave Su Binghui a slap in the face, "Who are you planning to sell to Fifth Brother this time as a puppet?"
"How can I" Su Binghui felt guilty.
"Alas!" Su Bingzheng said while pretending to be helpless, "How come there is such a profiteer brother in our family who is used to doing business without capital?"
"Mother, you see that brothers are bullying Hui'er!" Su Binghui hugged Wang's arm and said aggrievedly.
Wang Shi smiled and nodded his head, "You're already ten years old and you can act like a baby. Beware of your sister's jokes."
Su Binghui immediately stood up straight after hearing the words, glanced at her sister secretly from the corner of the eye, and was relieved to see that she didn't intend to make a joke at all. "Since when did Hui'er act like a spoiled child? Mother is kind, don't talk nonsense."
It was really interesting for everyone to see his concealed appearance, and they couldn't help laughing.
"What are you talking about, so happy?" Su Changfeng also entered the room, and couldn't help asking when he heard laughter.
"I'm talking about the bow that Ren'er made for Bao'er. It's really ingenious and tight." Wang then briefly talked about what happened just now.
"Oh? Bring it and let me have a look." Su Changfeng listened to Wang's words, took the little bow and studied it with great interest, "Well, it's not in vain that you followed Master Cao all these years. But your mother You are right, your studies must not be wasted. If you can pass the examination and become an official, Dad will recommend you to the Ministry of Industry, how about that?"
"Thank you daddy! My son must work hard to read and write, and live up to daddy's wishes." Su Bingren's eyes lit up when he heard it. Dad is now the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, but he is willing to recommend him without avoiding suspicion, which is a great affirmation to him.
Xiao Ranqing looked at Su Bingren, who was rarely excited, and felt joy in her heart. Compared with the other five ministries, the Ministry of Industry has a lot less messy things. If Fifth Brother has a temperament like this, if he wants to become an official, it might be the best place to go. And when he arrived at the Ministry of Industry, Fifth Brother's abilities can be considered to have found a place to display.
"By the way, at the banquet just now, the princes invited us to go hunting in the future. Now that my sister has this precious bow, she can go with us." Su Bingqian said suddenly.
When Wang heard this, she couldn't help frowning, "What is your sister going hunting with a girl?"
"Although my sister is a girl, she is very good at riding and martial arts. Wouldn't it be buried in the mansion just like this? Mother, you can let my sister go with us. It's all about letting her relax." Su Bingqian begged.
"This child even used the word "buried," Wang laughed angrily, "Girls have a good reputation for being good at martial arts. You must not publicize it outside."
"Mother, will you let my sister go with us?" Su Binghui asked.
"No," Mrs. Wang resolutely vetoed, "The Empress has invited your sister and mother into the palace to have an audience the next day."
"Empress?" Xiao Ranqing raised her head with doubts in her eyes. Although she only met that person once, it was enough to tell that he didn't like their mother and daughter. So??Leave the topic off. She put on a gentle smile and said to Xiao Ranqing, "Look at my memory, after chatting for a long time, I almost forgot to give Ranqing a meeting gift. It should have been given two years ago, but I didn't bring anything with me at the time." The good thing is on your body, so it has been delayed until now. You put this hairpin away, it will be used for makeup in the future."
Xiao Ranqing took the mutton fat jade Liuyunzan phoenix hairpin handed over by the court lady, and saluted and thanked Wang together.
"The queen reminded me, and I haven't given you the gift yet." Xiang Yingxuan said as he was about to untie the jade pendant around his waist.
"Your Majesty can't do it, my daughter can't afford such a great courtesy from His Majesty." Wang said quickly. Which of the emperor's personal items is not extremely exquisite and expensive? Not to mention its own value, the fact that it once belonged to the emperor is enough to be cherished.
"There's nothing you can't do. It's just my uncle's wish for my little niece. Mrs. Su, don't refuse." Xiang Yingxuan put the jade pendant in Xiaoranqing's hands without any explanation, and Mrs. Wang Helpless, he had to take his daughter Xie En again.
After having lunch with the emperor and empress, Wang took Xiao Ranqing and left the palace.
"Mother, do you know His Majesty?" Sitting in her own carriage, Xiao Ranqing finally couldn't help asking.
"Well," Wang replied with a smile when she saw her daughter was curious, "When His Majesty was the second prince, he went on a study tour with your father, and they met mother at the Lantern Festival when they went to Jiangnan County. I have met my father a few times, but it is not considered familiar."
"" If it is true what my mother said, why would Xiang Yingxuan show such a nostalgic look. And she always felt that the way he looked at his mother was a little unusual.
"Bao'er, if you want to know about these things, it's okay for your mother to tell you, but you must not spread the word, you know?" Although she knew her daughter was always sensible, Wang still urged.
"Well, Bao'er understands." (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
