Chapter 297: Another Fight Breaks Out

When Sui Sui returned, the Princess Consort of Qi had just spoken a few words with Lu Xing Lan.

Seeing the child, she couldn't waste time on more words, hurriedly opened her arms and lifted Sui Sui up.

Sui Sui had changed into a new set of clothes, even the little hat, and the Princess Consort of Qi, uneasy, asked carefully about the situation.

Children are mischievous; at a banquet like this they can't sit still, changing clothes is perfectly normal.

The heads of each family, when faced with this, would ask anxiously.

Sui Sui, held in the Mother Consort's arms, recalled what she had encountered and gave a brief account.

Sui Sui's expressive ability is improving, and her logical thinking is fairly good.

Occasionally she mixes things up, but at least she doesn't describe events absurdly.

Xiang Gugu occasionally offers a reminder nearby, and Sui Sui then knows roughly where she is heading in her speech.

Upon hearing that Sui Sui and Ying Zhi had run into Lu Yin Song's courtyard, the Princess Consort of Qi's heart tightened.

Song brother, he…

Since breaking his leg, his temperament has changed drastically and he's hard to get along with.

Even Lu Lady, the grandmother, often receives a cold shoulder; the Princess Consort of Qi truly didn't expect Princess Shunyang to be so bold, to run straight over and even bring Sui Sui to crawl through a dog hole.

Nevertheless, the incident has occurred, and the Princess Consort of Qi thought to herself how to wrap it up.

Children act recklessly without understanding, so adults must make a statement.

However, since Song brother is involved, the matter becomes a bit difficult.

The Princess Consort of Qi pondered carefully in her mind.

As Sui Sui kept talking, she mentioned Lu Yǐnxiāo: "And there's third brother, third brother looks really handsome!"

The child's preference was expressed very clearly.

Handsome is handsome, not handsome is not handsome.

Lu Yin Song is actually also good-looking, but his aura is too cold, and since Sui Sui never looked closely, he simply told her to get lost; Sui Sui was frightened into a stupor, and when she looked up she only saw his back.

To be honest, if Sui Sui were to look again now, she would probably not recognize anyone.

She really hasn't seen clearly; only a silhouette remains.

However, Lu Yǐnxiāo, that brother, Sui Sui saw very clearly.

She lifted her hand and gestured: "The eyes are like this, handsome; the mouth is also handsome, the nose is high, hair tied up, so dark and bright, the clothes are handsome, similar in color to big brother's previous outfit, embroidered with flowers, a beautiful jade pendant at the waist, um, also…"

Sui Sui tilted her little head, carefully recalling the details of Lu Yǐnxiāo's appearance.

At this moment, the Princess Consort of Qi couldn't even think about Lu Yin Song; she was directly drawn by Sui Sui's blunt words.

It was evident that Sui Sui had a good impression of Xiao brother, that child.

The Princess Consort of Qi also quite liked Xiao brother, but the child was overly precocious, even she, as an elder, couldn't tease him.

He literally wore a flat little bun-face, making it impossible to tease.

You tease him and he never laughs, only gives you reasoning.

Watching him like a little adult is both funny and infuriating.

Lu Yǐnxiāo's looks resemble his grandfather's.

The old Guó Gōng, when young, was a famous handsome youth in Jing Cheng.

Therefore, Lu Yǐnxiāo's appearance naturally wouldn't be lacking.

Sui Sui saying third brother looks good isn't something a child says lightly.

The Princess Consort of Qi also thought that Xiao brother indeed looks very good.

She followed the meaning she heard and praised him a few times.

The child was coaxed happily, and the Princess Consort of Qi felt at ease watching.

Just as she was about to hear Sui Sui talk about the outside, the Princess Consort of Qi heard a clamor.

This made her instinctively lift her head, her brows tightening slightly.

The Eldest Princess and Mrs. Lu, due to health reasons, left the seat early.

Moreover, the Eldest Princess also knew that during the banquet, many felt uneasy.

So, before the banquet was halfway through, they went to the back garden to rest.

At this moment Mrs. Lu was absent, everyone was socializing on their own; although their voices weren't very low, compared with the outside clamor, their voices were still extremely restrained.

However, even if the host family is absent, guests making noise here is still somewhat improper, right?

Lu Xing Lan, who had been listening to Sui Sui, at this point heard the sound, her brows tightened and her expression cooled considerably.

She smoothed her skirt and led the others outward.

The others, seeing her bearing, quickly made way.

With Mrs. Lu absent, Lu Xing Lan, as a Lu family daughter, naturally is more suitable and has the right to handle today's banquet emergencies.

The Princess Consort of Qi, uneasy, held Sui Sui and followed the crowd forward.

Aunt Qiu clearly had already sent someone to inquire; on the way out, she whispered to the Princess Consort of Qi: "The eldest Miss Xu and the second Miss Xie started quarreling."

Xu Residence and Xie Residence?

The Princess Consort of Qi's mind raced, she sorted out the two people's relationship and immediately realized.

It should be the cousins who quarreled.

Second Miss Xie's birth mother is Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren, who is the sister of the Prince of Jin Yang.

The eldest Miss Xu is the eldest daughter of the Prince of Jin Yang.

The two families' daughters aren't particularly close; the Prince of Jin Yang's sister is timid, and Mrs. Xu cannot trouble the Prince, so she always picks on that sister, often causing a ruckus at the Xie Residence.

Not long ago, the other side came to cause trouble and accidentally injured the senior lady of the Xie Residence, Master Shen's niece.

The Princess Consort of Qi had heard about this incident.

She had the Prince privately ask Master Shen's side if they needed any help.

Master Shen said he had already settled it, so the Princess Consort of Qi paid no further attention.

Now it's flared up again...

Having such a relative is truly troublesome and a dampener.

Now we're guests at someone else's residence, and it's flared up again.

The Princess Consort of Qi really doesn't know what to say.

At this moment, she is quite relieved that her Sui Sui came to their residence instead of returning to the Xu residence.

Otherwise, such a bustling life would become routine, and how would that affect the child's growth and mood?

The Princess Consort of Qi actually tries to avoid any connection with the Jin Yang Marquis Residence.

But Sui Sui was curiously looking around, and the Princess Consort of Qi couldn't bear to spoil the child's interest, so after a brief hesitation she still carried her over there.

She thought, just take a look from the outside to satisfy the child's curiosity.

Actually, they don't need to get too close.

Young ladies' hair-pulling quarrels—there's really nothing worth seeing.

Sui Sui had just watched Feng You Tan and Ying Zhi exchange blows.

Of course, they were at most sparring, not really fighting, each keeping their distance.

This time, Second Miss Xie and Xu Da Gu Niang were really fighting.

The two had already grabbed each other's hair, gritted their teeth, and were muttering something, though their voices were low, the scene wasn't pretty.

Lu Xing Lan walked over, saw them already entangled, and her face darkened.

What a mess—what does it look like now?

Second watch
