Speaking of “farming”, she felt like she had forgotten something.
The person who sent the message outside the door was in a difficult position. “But Mistress, I heard from that palace servant that someone reported you.”
Xiao Ran was puzzled. “What did I do?” After saying that, she remembered.
Could it be that the Xu Family had gone to the Emperor?
Not only did she not feel guilty, but she also straightened her back and opened the door. “Alright, I don’t find trouble with them, but they bumped into me themselves? Let’s go. Let’s see if I don’t break his bastard son’s legs!”
“Daugh… Mm… Xiaoxiao, rest at home for a while. Wait for Mother… I’ll come back.”
The guard didn’t understand why Mistress stuttered when she was confused. He just scratched his head awkwardly. “The Imperial Censor asked if Miss Ning was around just now. If she was, His Majesty would summon her too.”
The three of them looked at each other in the room. Xiao Ran went back into the house. “Oh, then let the Imperial Censor wait. We have to prepare.”
Mistress had always been casual when she entered the palace. Sometimes, she couldn’t even be bothered to change into her court clothes. What was she preparing now?
Just as the guard was feeling puzzled, he saw Mistress and Master pull the unfamiliar Miss Ning towards the wardrobe. Their tone was so gentle that it was almost doting. “Come, let’s change our clothes first. Do you want to take a bath? We have soap from the Western Region here. It’s fragrant and very comfortable to use. You should eat more fruits, right? Are you hungry? Can I cook a bowl of noodles for you?”
The guard was dumbfounded. It was a long time before he remembered— wasn’t the clothes prepared for Little Mistress, who was wandering outside? Mistress would make new clothes and buy new jewelry for Little Mistress every year. They said that she would be able to wear them immediately when she returned. Unfortunately…
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Wait! The things in Little Mistress’s room were all personally prepared by the masters. Even their personal maidservant and servant were not allowed to touch them. Now, she was letting that girl wear them. Didn’t this mean that it meant that!!!
The guard’s eyes turned red. Could that girl be
lt was impossible to take a shower. There was no need to take a shower in broad daylight and no need to eat as well. Xiaoxiao had a stomach full of fruits now, and there was still a sound when she swayed. She changed her clothes according to Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an’s instructions and wore some simple but grand jewelry under their insistence.
When they reached the door, Yun San and Eighteen, who were already waiting there, widened their eyes in admiration.
The two of them had just placed the things that Miss wanted in the kitchen and washed them according to her request when they heard that she and General Xiao had gone to the General’s Residence. The two of them were still puzzled. When did Miss Ning become familiar with the General’s Residence? Could it be that Master asked General Xiao to take care of Miss Ning? Aiyo, Master was quite anxious. He couldn’t even wait for General to propose marriage first.
Thinking that she would definitely not be in any danger at General’s Residence, the two of them simply waited at the door. What if the two of them were cultivating their relationship?
They didn’t dare to recognize Miss Ning, who had dressed up just now. If Master saw this, wouldn’t he be stunned? From the looks of it, Miss Ning really didn’t look like a girl who was raised in the countryside. With such a dress, no one wouldn’t believe that she was the daughter of a rich family in the Imperial Capital.
On the other hand, Xiao Ran was a little surprised to see the two of them. “Yun San, Eighteen, why are you here?”
The two of them bowed and looked at Xiaoxiao. “We were ordered to protect Miss Ning.”
Xiao Ran finally calmed down because she was too excited to see her daughter.
Her daughter’s name was Ning Xiaoxiao. She came from Xijiang County and was even protected by Little Yan’s guards…
She slapped her head. “Ah, so that’s how it is.”
She was wondering where the poor Xu Family got their guts from. They clearly knew that the Shen Family was protecting Xiaoxiao, but they still dared to have ill intentions towards her. It turned out that the Yan Family was adding fuel to the fire behind their back. Why? Did they want to vent their anger on her daughter after suffering a loss in Yan Lu’s matter? Did they think she was dead?
Gu Chang’an’s face also turned cold. At this moment, he actually regretted his choice. If he had listened to his family back then and given up on cooking to study hard, would he be able to seek justice for his daughter in the imperial hall now?
They had been husband and wife for many years. Xiao Ran could tell what her husband was thinking at a glance. She held Gu Chang’an’s hand and patted it gently. “Don’t worry, leave it to me.”
Yun San and Eighteen were speechless. What did they miss???
The Emperor listened to the Xu Family’s cries in the hall for a long time. His ears were almost calluses before he heard the eunuch report, “General Xiao is here!”contemporary romance
He thought that Xiao Ran, who had hit someone and committed a crime, would at least feel a little guilty. Unexpectedly, her footsteps were steady and her pretty face was cold. She walked in and kicked the Xu family’s son, who was kneeling in the middle, over without a word.
Everyone was stunned. The Emperor felt that it would be unreasonable not to flare up now, so he slapped the dragon chair.
“Your Majesty, I want to sue Xu Erlang!”
The Emperor was stunned and even forgot that his hand hurt. “You, sue them?”
The Xu family felt that there was something wrong with their ears. If they weren’t in front of the hall, they really wanted to reach out and dig out their ear wax.
Assistant Minister Xu was used to arguing with others in the court, so he reacted quickly. He couldn’t be bothered to help his son up. “General Xiao, don’t go overboard. You were the one who hit someone on the street first. Why are you suing my son?”
Xiao Ran glanced at him coldly and added, “I still want to sue the Xu Family for being unruly. Lord Xu, you should reflect on yourself for raising your son to such a state!”
Assistant Minister Xu was furious. He knelt in front of the Emperor. “Your Majesty, I’m innocent. Please uphold justice for me!”
“My son only strolled on the streets today and did not provoke General Xiao. She suddenly rushed out and injured my servants. She even beat my son up like this. Although my status is low, I can’t be trampled on like this. Your Majesty, please give me justice!”
The Emperor was looking at Xiao Ran’s expression carefully. With his understanding of Xiao Ran, he could tell at a glance that she was really angry and faking it. She really wanted to chop up the Xu Family’s people now. It was obvious that there was more to it.
He did not want to be slapped in the face after standing up for the Xu Family.
“Dear Official Xiao, do you have anything to say?”
Xiao Ran looked up with a hint of sadness in her solemn expression. “Your Majesty, do you still remember that you promised to compensate my daughter well if I found her?”
Although the Emperor did not understand why she mentioned this now, he still agreed. “Of course. Back then, in order to protect the country, you could not return home even after giving birth. On the way back to the capital, you were severely injured by a spy. Until now…”
Xiao Ran waved her hand to interrupt the Emperor—only she dared to do this in the world.
“That’s not important. What makes me regret the most is that someone stole my child while I was unconscious and separated me from my flesh and blood. We’ve been in pain until now!”
The Emperor sighed. He had long forgotten to denounce her. Xiao Ran asked again, “His Majesty said that you will also treat my daughter as your biological daughter when I find her. Does that still stand?”
The Emperor’s words were precious. How could he go back on his word? “Of course.”
Xiao Ran snorted and pointed at the Xu Family’s son.. “If he wants to take Your Majesty’s daughter as a concubine and even says dirty words at the entrance of the street, does Your Majesty think he should be punished?”
