Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 292 The sun rises from the west?
It was the third day since Hong Xiaoduo arrived in the capital and stayed at Minister Wei's residence. She still did not sleep in. She got up while stretching. No matter how she said she didn't want anyone to serve her, the maid Ziyue insisted on helping her wash and dress.

The water for washing is warm, and the movements for combing hair are very gentle, but even though she is enjoying this, Hong Xiaoduo still feels that her previous days were more comfortable. At least she can sleep in comfortably.

"Miss Hong, there are a lot of guests in our house today, so let Ziyue comb your hair into the popular style nowadays. I promise not to use too many head ornaments. You can just pick a few simple pearl flowers." Ziyue negotiated unwillingly.

With such black hair, and at this age when she should be beautiful, why does she insist on braiding her hair?

Girls from farming families in the countryside wouldn't braid their hair like this. They would braid the garlic heads they harvested in autumn to make it easier to hang them.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I like to comb my hair like this. Don't worry, no matter how many distinguished guests there are today, your family won't worry that my hair is too simple and will embarrass them and blame you. Come on, I'll comb my hair myself." Hong Xiaoduo waited for her to finish speaking and still refused.

Hong Xiaoduo didn't mean to blame Zi Yue, but she really didn't like this kind of well-intentioned advice.

If you don't like it, you just don't like it. Why should you accept it just to avoid offending other people's kindness?

"Yes, I'm sorry, young lady. Zi Yue didn't mean that." Zi Yue looked at a pair of beautiful hands that took away the black hair from her hands. Only then did she realize that she had just overstepped the mark.

She was originally from the lady's courtyard. She was skillful and hardworking, so she was arranged to serve this young lady.

However, what the young lady said just now was not wrong. The reason why she wanted to persuade this lady to comb her hair was indeed because today was a special day in the master's family and there were distinguished guests coming. Needless to say, the status of the distinguished guest of the master was natural. Even if he was not a high-ranking official, he was a prestigious scholar.

But this young lady is dressed so casually!
“You don’t need to be nervous or explain. That’s what you meant, and you should do it, because your original intention was good and it was to protect your master’s face.

Don't worry, I won't say anything to your masters." While Hong Xiaoduo was talking, she had already braided her hair skillfully, tied it with a hairband she made, and looked at herself in the mirror, feeling very good about herself.

At this time, Kaiyang, who had gotten up and washed up long ago and was outside the house, walked in: "Mom, are you ready? Let's go have breakfast together."

"Oh, our Kaiyang is already handsome, and he looks even more handsome and energetic in this outfit today." Hong Xiaoduo couldn't help but praise Kaiyang as she looked at him who was carefully dressed up.

She was wearing a lake blue brocade robe, a jade belt around her waist, her jet-black hair was tied with a brocade belt of the same color as her robe, and she was wearing a pair of short boots.

Kaiyang blushed at the compliment, "I didn't wear this when I woke up this morning. Mother had someone send it to me to change into. She said she had invited a master to come to the house yesterday and used the clothes in my bag as a model and rushed them out."

"How about it? Aren't you happy to have your mother's love?" Hong Xiaoduo teased him.

"Don't you love me too? The first new robe I wore when I was a child was bought by you. Later, didn't you buy me several more?" Kaiyang said immediately.

"Okay, okay, our Kaiyang is a child with a conscience. You must remember how good I have been to you. When I am old, you must be filial to me." Hong Xiaoduo smiled as she listened to the child deliberately emphasizing his own kindness.

Kaiyang's eyes lit up when he heard this, then he frowned and said, "I can support you without waiting for you to get old. I will grow up in a few years, and I will make a lot of money to support you with my own money."

"I see, but you can't just think about making money. You are young now, so you can't make a decision too early. What if you want to be an official when you are older?

Being an official is not a bad thing. Being a good official who works for the people like your grandfather is also meaningful. "Hong Xiaoduo was afraid that this child would really pursue making money, so she said quickly.

Kaiyang tilted his head and thought about it seriously, then nodded: "Well, I'll remember what you said. No matter what I do when I grow up, the most important thing now is to study hard."

While the adult and the child were chatting, they arrived at the front hall and found that the servants in the front yard had already been busy.

At the breakfast table, only Hua was present. She said that Kaiyang's grandparents and his father had already eaten because they were busy.

Breakfast was pork rib porridge, steamed dumplings, wontons, and side dishes. It is said that people feel refreshed when they are happy. After Hua Shi recognized Kai Yang, she looked younger and her eyes were brighter. She was also dressed up this morning, so it was hard to associate her with the first time I saw her in town.

While eating, Hua looked at her son and then at Hong Xiaoduo with a smile. Seeing how happily they were eating, Hua couldn't help but eat half a bowl more of porridge.

"What are the plans for those two today?" Hong Xiaoduo asked curiously after putting down his chopsticks after finishing his meal.

Hua knew who she was asking about: "Father didn't plan to let them show up. He arranged for people to guard the yard."

"How did those two react?" Hong Xiaoduo asked again.

"Yin was obviously uneasy, and the child, well, seemed to be unaware of the change. He was staring at the gate, waiting." Speaking of the child, Hua felt complicated.

As a mother, she felt sorry for the child. Both her father and husband said that the child did not seem to know the truth. At such a young age, she was used by her family and waited with great expectations.

But when he thought about it, that child almost took the identity of his own son, the Wei family was lucky to have met Hong Xiaoduo who knew secret arts.

Otherwise, if her own son was wandering outside while she was raising a fake one, and a malicious one at that, she would not be able to feel sympathy for him.

Even if the other person also has Wei family blood flowing in his body, the origin of this bloodline is not genuine. My father-in-law has no intention of recognizing him, so there is no need for me to worry about it.

After Hong Xiaoduo and Kaiyang finished their breakfast, they chatted with Hua Shi in the yard. When the preparations were ready, they would come over to call them.

In the capital, several of Lord Wei's good colleagues, after breakfast, checked the gifts and prepared to leave the house.

In the Fu'an Marquis Mansion, Lord Mu Dongqing held a cup of tea and patiently watched his wife check the gifts.

"Madam, there is no need to be so cautious. You know what kind of person Brother Junpei is. Even if we go empty-handed today, he won't make trouble." Lord Mu was forced to speak after hearing the princess asking the steward to go to the warehouse to get something.

Princess Gan Fenglin turned around and rolled her eyes at him, saying, "What do you know? If Wei Junpei is getting promoted today and holds a banquet, we don't have to go. However, with his personality, he may not hold a banquet even if he gets promoted.

But today he has found his only precious grandson, and God has finally opened his eyes. The family is finally reunited. On this happy day, of course we must celebrate it properly.

Besides, the gifts I prepared were not for the adults in his house, but for Tong'er's child. Alas, I went to the poor child's third birthday banquet and his hundred-day banquet. I even prepared the gifts for his one-year-old birthday banquet in advance. Who would have thought that something would happen to the child? I don't know what that damn beast did.

What are those people in the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice doing? They can't find anything."

"Madam, you have scolded them so many times in the past few years. No matter what, this time it was the Dali Temple that tried the case and found the clues. Don't be rude to them in the future." Lord Mu advised again.

Princess Fenglin was about to speak when she saw someone coming in from the outside. Her eyes lit up: "Jing'er? What are you doing?"

"My son will accompany you two to attend the banquet at Uncle Wei's house." Murong Jing responded while looking through the gifts on display.

Princess Fenglin immediately looked towards her husband, and both of them showed an expression of disbelief. Among her three sons, this youngest son hated attending banquets the most. No matter whether it was a birthday banquet, a wedding banquet, or a funeral, he would never go no matter how hard he tried to coax him into going when he was little.

It's even less necessary when he grows up, so no matter what banquet is held, no one will ask this son anymore.

"My Lord, can you help me check if the sun is rising from the west today?" Princess Fenglin said to her husband...

I wasn't in a good state today, so I'm just finishing coding now. My dears, this is just one update today.
