The Royal's Cute Little Wife Chapter 5.2

Gao Tongtong immediately blushed, and she finished her sentence, saying, ” Many thanks, young master”.

Just when Xie Rong was about to say that it was alright, Xie Zhen came forward excitedly, looked up and said, “Big brother, why did you come? Did you come to see both Ah Xun and I?”

Xie Rong bent down and rubbed her head, “Father said you slept on the way here and was worried you would feel cold, so he got me to bring a set of clothes for you”.

Saying this, he called on his servant, who brought along a cherry-coloured jacket embroidered with hibiscus flowers. It was Xie Zhen’s favourite jacket, and it seemed that Xie Liqing had ordered the servants to return to Xie fu just to retrieve it.

As Xie Rong helped her to put it on, she giggled and opened her arms to hug him, “Brother I want a hug.”

Xie Rong laughed and said, “I’ll hug you when we return home.”

The conversation between the two siblings gave Gao Tongtong a fright, and she widened her eyes in disbelief. He was actually Xie Zhen’s big brother?

This, this Xie Zhen’s life was really too good…Appearance wise, she was already extremely pretty. But not only was she good-looking, but her brother was also outstanding.

This made her even angrier, but still her gaze never wavered from Xie Rong.

Even when returning Grandmother and her mother’s thanks, he still looked incredibly handsome.

There was a total of seventy tables set up for the banquet, and it just so happened to be the same number as the Old Madame’s age.

For such a big celebration, if the courtyard wasn’t big enough, then it would really be humiliating. Gao fu was a reputable household in Qing Zhou, so for the Old Madame’s seventieth birthday celebration, they not only invited all of Qing Zhou’s officials and merchants, but also reserved seventeen tables for the commoners who lived nearby. It could be said that celebrating with the people would bless one with longevity.

Leng shi brought her two daughters along with her to sit at the same table as the Old Madame, and as she’d gotten familiar with some people at the pavilion as she didn’t feel overly awkward sitting at the table. Song shi was also sitting on her left, so the pair could chat amicably.

Xie Zhen popped out from behind Leng shi, exposing a pair of limpid eyes, “Aunt Song, why didn’t Big Brother Xiao Yu come?”

Even till then, she was still thinking of Li Yu.

After two months, Song shi completely adored her, and couldn’t stop herself from patting her head fondly, saying, “Yu er came today. Right now he should be with Gao Xun. Why, did Little Lamb miss him?”

Gao Xun was the Third Young Master of Gao fu, and was the Second Madame Xu shi‘s seven year-old son.

The Li’s often visited Gao fu, and since Gao Xun and Li Yu were of similar ages, their relationship was quite good.

Even though Xie Zhen was so young, she wasn’t that clueless, and asked, “Why is Big Brother Xiao Yu always hiding from me? Does he hate me?”

Song shi repeatedly denied this. Who could bear to hate such a beautiful child?

“Yu er just doesn’t know you that well, why would he hate you?”

Comforted, Xie Zhen’s spirits quickly rose, and in the blink of an eye she forgot all her worries. She helped serve Xie Xun some food, as Xie Xun wasn’t good at using chopsticks, but she loved to eat, and without Xie Zhen taking care of her she wouldn’t be able to eat anything.

As such, Xie Zhen didn’t manage to eat too much, but Xie Xun, on the other hand, ate till she was full.

Using a handkerchief to clean Xie Xun’s lips, Leng shi said, ‘Next time you aren’t allowed to bother your sister again, after all she also needs to eat.”

Xie Xun blinked innocently and obediently agreed.

The little troublemaker clung onto Xie Zhen’s hand and guiltily tugged her to her side, saying, “Ah Niang, I want to bring Sis somewhere.”

The banquet hadn’t ended yet, and Leng shi still needed to stay behind to talk with the Old Madame. To put her heart at ease, she had Shuang Yu and Shuang Yan look after them. “Don’t go too far, and remember to come back.”

Agreeing, she and Xie Zhen ran far away in the blink of an eye.

Walking along a narrow trail, they stopped in front of a moon gate, and Xie Zhen asked, confused, “Where are you taking me to?”

Xie Xun raised her head confidently, and proudly declared, “Since Sis hasn’t eaten much, I’m bringing you to find some good food!”

Just now when they were on the way to the outer courtyard, she’d smelt the aroma of good food, and had also seen maidservants walking out one by one with plates of food, so she’d a.s.sumed that that place was the kitchen.

While being tugged along by her, Xie Zhen said, “Ah Niang will be angry if she finds out.”

At this Xie Xun stopped, and to prevent her sister from refusing to go, immediately said, “If we don’t say anything, she won’t know!”

Behind them Shuang Yu and Shuang Yan were silent, wondering if they should pretend that they hadn’t heard anything…

After walking for a while, they realised Xie Xun had no sense of direction. The two small dumplings walked around in circles, and after fifteen minutes they had zero idea of where they were.

Xie Xun pouted and cried out, “But the scent was obviously here!”

Afraid that she would actually cry, Xie Zhen comforted her, “We can still ask other people for directions, furthermore Shuang Yu and Shuang Yan are still here, so we can definitely find it.”

The main reason why Shuang Yu and Shuang Yan had followed them, after all, was to prevent them from getting lost.

Just as she said that, she heard someone ask from behind. “Who are you?”

Xie Zhen turned around, only to see a young man wearing a sea blue jin pao standing next to the fake hill. Originally her expression had been quite serious, but after turning her head, she was stunned.

The young man immediately forgot his anger, and stared straight at her.

Xie Zhen’s eyes gleamed, and seeing Li Yu next to the man, happily cried out, “Big Brother Xiao Yu!”

Li Yu’s expression immediately turned to stone, and he turned his head away.

Gonna be watching TLJ again with my sis! I still ship Reylo really hard. Porgs are my favourite characters. Funko released this Porg Plush but it’s sold out! And I am sad. If y’all have watched The Last Jedi do y’all ship Rey and Kylo or no. (My friend is still adamant that Kylo was lying about her parentage and that they’re actually siblings and the whole thing is incest.)
