Chapter 174: If you get cheated many times, you will learn
"Xiao Nan, you are so smart! I'll give you a big chicken drumstick as a reward."
Xiao Mingxu also put the remaining chicken leg into Jiang Tunan's bowl, but Jiang Tunan waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no, I've already eaten one chicken drumstick, I won't eat this one."
There were only two chicken legs in a chicken, and Jiang Tunan felt very embarrassed to eat them all by himself.
"It's okay. There are plenty of chicken legs. Just let them come after you finish eating."
Xiao Mingxu forcefully left the chicken leg in Jiang Tunan's bowl, and Ye Ruzhen also echoed,
"Yes, yes, Xiaonan, eat more. You have suffered a lot these days."
Although Ji Lingyue didn't say anything, it could be seen from the expression on her face that she had the same idea as Ye Ruzhen.
"Then...I won't be polite!"
Jiang Tunan raised another chicken leg and was about to bite it when a woman's voice came from behind her.
"How can I eat meat?"
Jiang Tunan:?
Who? Who scolded me?
"Look, cousin, those homeless beggars on the other side of the river don't even have steamed buns to eat, but I'm sitting here eating fish and meat..."
The woman's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to reach the ears of everyone present, and an awkward atmosphere filled the air.
"Who is it? You're disturbing my meal."
Xiao Mingxu stood up first, walked to the window near the moat, and opened the half-closed window completely.
"Su Xiaoxiao! I've told you so many times that you should address the eldest prince as His Highness when you are outside!"
"Okay, okay, Su Lanlan, why are you so fierce? Don't be sad, little cousin. I don't mind."
"Your Highness..."
"Don't cry, little cousin. I'll buy you whatever you like today."
It sounds like the noise is coming from the next room, but why is Su Xiaoxiao still hanging around? Xiao Mingli didn't come today.
"Xiao Nan, from the sound of her voice, it should be the second young lady of the Su family."
Ji Lingyue nodded in agreement, and Ye Ruzhen continued,
"Although the second young lady is a young lady born to an aunt, Prime Minister Su loves her very much, sometimes even more than Su Lanlan."
Jiang Tunan thought, of course, she is the heroine after all, and this is a sweet pet story, the title says "Pampered Female Goose", no one pampers that pampered girl.
"It's bad luck."
Xiao Mingxu closed the window with a look of disgust on his face. Xiao Mingrui coughed a few times and reminded him,
"Third brother, Prince Qi is still here."
Qi Guanming was sitting in his seat, listening with great interest to the noise coming from the next room, but was suddenly called by Xiao Mingrui. When he looked up, he found that everyone in the room was looking at him.
"Uh...I..didn't hear anything."
After that, everyone turned their eyes away.
Qi Guanming: I have a feeling that if I don’t explain myself, everyone here will throw me away.
"Keep eating. Keep eating."
Xiao Mingxu greeted them a few times, and everyone pretended nothing had happened and continued to eat.
In the next room, Su Lanlan had a forbearing look on her face, while Su Yangxu was leaning back in his chair and sneered,
"Why do you bother? Whether in front of grandfather or the eldest prince, you always lose to Su Xiaoxiao."
Su Lanlan took a deep breath to calm herself down, then glanced at Su Yangxu coldly.
"I've never fought for so-called favor."
After saying that, Su Lanlan took her maid out of the room.
"Hey, why are you going?"
"Go out and get some fresh air!"
Su Lanlan left the room in frustration, but Jiang Tunan gradually lost himself in the continuous praise from Qi Guanming, Ye Ruzhen and Xiao Mingxu.
"Xiao Nannan, the marketing you just mentioned sounds really good. You are so awesome."
"Yes, I have never heard of such a method before. Miss Jiang has impressed me again today."
"Konan is the best! Konan is the best!"
Jiang Tunan was overwhelmed by the compliments and replied a little embarrassedly,
"No, I just get cheated so many times that I learn it."
Xiao Mingxu: “Ah?”
Oops, how could I say what was in my heart? Jiang Tunan quickly changed his words.
"No, no, I mean, you just get used to it after seeing it so many times."
Xiao Mingrui had been sitting quietly in his seat, as if he was isolated. He seemed careless, but in fact his attention was all on Jiang Tunan, because after spending these days together, he always felt that Jiang Tunan seemed to have some secrets, but he didn't know whether he should explore it.
But I had just apologized to her for doubting Jiang Tunan. After all, Jiang Tunan's differences from ordinary people were only in some harmless areas. I should not cause any more trouble.
Xiao Mingrui suppressed his doubts and drank the tea in the cup silently. Just as he reached out to pick up the teapot to pour another cup, Jiang Tunan came over and whispered sinisterly,
"Cousin Mingrui, drink less. Be careful about frequent urination at night..."
Before Jiang Tunan could finish his words, Xiao Mingrui grabbed his head. Xiao Mingrui seemed to be enjoying it and rubbed Jiang Tunan's head with one hand.
“You’re touching the dog!”
Jiang Tunan's hair was messed up by Xiao Mingrui, but seeing this, Xiao Mingrui's mouth corners slightly curled up.
"Cousin, look at cousin Mingrui, he is picking me up!"
Jiang Tunan knew that she could not defeat Xiao Mingrui, so she had to ask for help from outside.
"What? Xiao Mingrui is pulling you! You are going too far, Xiao Mingrui..."
Xiao Mingxu was originally aggressive, but when Xiao Mingrui looked at him, he immediately gave in.
"You can't do this next time~"
Jiang Tunan:?
Xiao Mingxu argued in a low voice,
"No, Xiao Nannan, I have never been able to beat him since I was a child, and this kid is really fierce when he fights."
Looking at Xiao Mingrui's smirk, Jiang Tunan said to Ye Ruzhen angrily,
"Zhenzhen, look at them!"
"That's too much. Sisters are more important than anything else. Xiaonan, just wait."
Ye Ruzhen excitedly stood up and walked towards Xiao Mingrui, but when she met Xiao Mingrui's eyes, she felt scared and took a few steps back.
"Wait for me to bring a few more pots of tea. I'll make him urinate frequently and urgently at night."
After saying that, Ye Ruzhen left the room as if she was ready to sacrifice herself.
Xiao Mingrui: ...
Jiang Tunan: ...
"Cousin Mingrui, hehe~"
Jiang Tunan grinned at Xiao Mingrui, and Xiao Mingrui also gave a polite fake smile.
"Cousin Mingrui, you look so ugly when you smile like this."
Xiao Mingrui closed his eyes, as if he was having a psychological struggle, then opened his eyes, pressed Jiang Tunan's head with one hand, and continued to ruffle Jiang Tunan's hair with the other hand.
Jiang Tunan turned around and took the opportunity to escape from Xiao Mingrui's clutches and hid behind Xiao Mingxu.
"Cousin, save me!"
Xiao Mingxu, like an old hen protecting her chicks, opened his arms to block Jiang Tunan behind him.
"Old Four, please give me some face."
Xiao Mingrui smiled slightly and pushed Xiao Mingxu away with one hand. Qi Guanming saw this and shouted,
"Miss Jiang, run! He is about to break through the defense!"
Upon hearing the sound, Jiang Tunan quickly ran to Ji Lingyue and threw himself into Ji Lingyue's arms.
"Ling Yue, hurry up and hold my head, then he can't do anything to me!"
Ji Lingyue hugged Jiang Tunan stiffly, and Xiao Mingrui approached with a smile.
"Jiang Tunan, come out."
"I won't! My head can be broken and blood can flow, but my hair can't be messed up!"
Xiao Mingrui grabbed Jiang Tunan's collar and lifted her up. Jiang Tunan's hair was messy at this time, and Xiao Mingrui couldn't help laughing. His eyes were full of smiles.
"Aren't you afraid of hurting yourself?"
Xiao Mingrui brushed back the hair that was floating in front of Jiang Tunan's eyes, but Jiang Tunan gritted his teeth where Xiao Mingrui couldn't see.
At this moment, Chunhua rushed into the room, looking a little embarrassed, as if she had just had a fight with someone.
"Oh no Miss! Miss Ye is arguing with Miss Su outside!"
