Chapter 242 The Cousin in the Rebellious Period

The imperial garden at this time of year is not a good scene either. Li Xi carried the cat out of the palace, walked a few steps, and then stopped in the corridor. He turned his head and looked at Xu Jiao who was not far or near behind him. Seeing that, It seemed to be waiting for her.

Xu Jiao is one of the thousands who don't want to go over, but have to go over, and still have to smile, "Cousin, to be honest, it's a bit cold today, and the air has passed through, instead of blowing here It is better to go back to the house to keep warm in the cold wind. The cat is sleepy, so I will take my cousin to sit in the warm pavilion for a while, drink tea and eat snacks, and let the kitten sleep. will be irritable."

"Who said Liuli is irritable?" Li Xie wrinkled his nose, and snorted softly, "It has always been docile and well-behaved, my cousin doesn't believe it, so come and touch it." Li Xie said, holding the cat in his arms and holding it in front of Xu Jiao. Handed over, a pair of eyes aimed at Xu Jiao.

The two looked at each other, Xu Jiao burst into a smile, always sweet, said, "Okay!" and stretched out his hand towards the cat.

Unexpectedly, the cat suddenly "meowed" and stretched out its paws to grab the back of Xu Jiao's hand.It happened so suddenly, Xu Jiao was shocked, and said "ah", and swung his hand back, unexpectedly dodging the cat's sharp claws, and the slap hit the cat's body evenly. On Li'er's body, the cat let out an "Aw", jumped out of Li Xi's arms, and disappeared in two or three strokes.

"Liuli!" Li Xi yelled, then turned his head and glared at Xu Jiao angrily and said, "You hit my cat?" A pair of phoenix eyes looked at Xu Jiao, almost bursting into flames.

Xu Jiao seemed to be really frightened, and said anxiously, "I'm sorry, cousin! The cat wanted to catch me. I was afraid for a while, and I somehow hit it."

"You hit it, and it got angry and afraid that it might hide. If you can't find it, I'm the only one to ask." Li Xi stamped her feet, and the little girl's expression changed with anger.

"No way? Didn't my cousin say that it is well-behaved and docile? If you call it, it should come back!" Xu Jiao looked confused.

Li Xie's complexion changed twice, "Aren't you going to look for it? This palace is so big, who knows where it went? My colored glaze was given to me by my father, so I can't lose it." The little girl spoke behind her eyes. They are all slightly red, which shows that they are really anxious.

A dark light flashed across Xu Jiao's eyes, and the corner of his mouth lightly hooked, "Don't look for it!"

"What did you say?" Li Xi suspected that he had heard wrong, and stared at Xu Jiao incredulously.

Xu Jiao smiled brightly at her, "I said there is no need to look for it."

That smile was so sweet and bright that in Li Xi's eyes, she felt extremely glaring and hateful, she gritted her teeth, "Jing Yue, you."

Before she finished speaking, Xu Jiao raised her hand and pointed behind her, "Look, hasn't your cat been found?" The little girl's face changed a little with anger, and her chest heaved even more rapidly. Seeing this, Xu Jiao was really afraid of making her angry, that's all, let's do it first.

Li Xi turned her head to look, and saw a maidservant holding a bunch of familiar flowers expressionlessly, and if she looked carefully, wasn't it her cat Liuli?
Li Xie took a step forward, and snatched the cat over with two ounces of hatred, the servant girl withdrew her hand lightly, walked to Xu Jiao's side and stood there with her hands tied.Is there anything else you don't understand?Immediately, resentment and resentment filled his heart, and he felt flustered with embarrassment. With two points of resentment, he gave Xu Jiao a hard look, and ran away with the cat in his arms.

Xu Jiao looked at her back, frowning slightly, and his eyes darkened quietly.

"Princess, what's going on here? This is the first time we're meeting Miss Li Wu today, isn't it?" Lingxue walked to her side to support her, her brows frowned suspiciously.

Looking at the same age, this one is not as cute as the little lady of the Zhou family.

"It's nothing, it should be that the little girl simply doesn't like me, or it's the naughtiness unique to this age." The rebellious period has arrived.Xu Jiao thought with gloomy eyes, as Negative Snow said, neither Princess Huiming nor this Lady Li Wu should have any quarrel with her.

When Xu Jiao returned to the palace, the queen mother and the others were still talking, and Li Xi was teasing the cat, but nothing unusual could be seen.The little girl probably didn't sue, and she wasn't afraid to sue Xu Jiao, she was not wrong.

After a while, Emperor Xian came and brought the empress and the prince. After talking for a while, the empress dowager ordered the meal to be delivered.

"It's almost the end of the new year, and there will be a palace banquet in two days, so today I only have a family banquet, and I have wronged my son." The queen mother patted Princess Huiming's hand.

"Whatever the queen mother said, it would be good for our family to sit together and talk affectionately. I have been in Luxi for so many years, and I look forward to having meals with my mother, elder sister and Your Majesty every day. Now that there are more children, naturally there is only more joy.”

Everyone sat down and had a meal, Xu Jiao watched coldly, but couldn't see anything wrong.It seems that they are really just a family of flesh and blood, reunited after a long absence, it seems that the relationship is still very good, there is no half gap.

In the past, Xu Jiao would always go to Wang Wan's Cuiwei Palace when entering the palace, but seeing Princess Huiming's mother and daughter present today, Xu Jiao gave up this idea.After the banquet, he proposed to leave the palace earlier.

The queen mother nodded and said, "The days are short, and it's the end of the year again, so it's better to go back earlier."

"Queen mother, there are still many things in my residence that need to be settled. I don't want to leave any more, so I will simply go on the same road with Ajiao. I will come to the palace to see you again after the two-day palace banquet." Princess Huiming also said Get up and say.

There was nothing unusual about what he said, but Xu Jiao's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly glanced at Princess Huiming, who just smiled slightly and didn't notice her sneak peek at all.

The Empress Dowager had no objection, she pulled the eldest princess and said, "Yanping doesn't have to go out of the palace with her, and saves the trouble of running back and forth. Ajiao and Aqiao are watching the affairs of your house, so you can stay in the palace with peace of mind." Let's accompany Ai's family."

The eldest princess hummed, but raised her eyes very quickly to glance at Princess Huiming, and slightly frowned at the tip of her brows.

The Empress Dowager had specially prepared a small sedan chair with green curtains for them, and they sat all the way to the palace gate, but they were spared talking with Princess Huiming, mother and daughter along the way, Xu Jiao was relieved in his heart.

When they arrived at the palace gate, the carriages of the two families were already waiting.

After getting off the sedan chair, Princess Huiming turned her head and said to Xu Jiao, "Ajiao will come to my house some other day to have a seat. My family has many brothers but few sisters. It would be good for you to be her companion. I remembered the days when I was with my sister when I was young."

"Thank you, Auntie. I will bother you when I have the opportunity. I just want my auntie and cousin not to be disgusted by that time." Xu Jiao glanced at the cat incident and became very well-behaved. Smiled lightly.

Princess Huiming said a few more words of greeting, and took Li Xi into her family's carriage.It wasn't until watching the carriage slowly leave that Xu Jiao breathed a sigh of relief.
