Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

"Kick you?" Bai Xing became more and more confused, "Grandson, when did I kick you? Ah... maybe I wasn't careful..."

Misremembering, accidental... She is not very young, but she is more unreliable than an old woman?

Mrs. Bai looked at her sideways, knowing that whenever she asked him anything at this moment, she would just give this kind of prevaricating explanation. She was so perfunctory that she didn't even bother to think of the reasons. If she asked him again, she would probably just say "you are overthinking" and so on.

But his grandson knows very well that the more generous this kid seems to be, the more likely he is to play tricks on you - talking nonsense with a sincere and blank face is what he has been good at since he was a child. At first, he I was also deceived by his appearance, but the more times I did it, the more I would learn from it. Mrs. Bai snorted coldly, "Drink the soup Wuyan sent quickly! Old lady, although I am old, my brain is still good! Just because I don't tell you something, it doesn't mean I can't see through it. He is here today to test Wuyan's background. Yes, right?"

Bai Xing lazily raised his eyelids, as if he was really not interested in this topic, "Yeah, I didn't pay attention... He came to ask about the old friend you have been talking about all the time! How come my grandson remembers the first two You were still talking about the years when your love was as strong as gold. Why did you suddenly become separated while walking? Why did it suddenly become a sad thing?" After saying that, he grinned, smiling knowingly and freely. A dark glow appeared on his expression.

Obviously everyone is the same.

The same people are wary, the same have doubts, and they still protect the most important people and things in their hearts from others to take advantage of them.

What a damn kid... Mrs. Bai shook her head and laughed. After all, she didn't have the energy to fight with him. "You said that when your father went out to have a drink yesterday, I didn't feel it yet, but then it was too obvious that he was insidious... There was also a way that even eating was tasteless with things hidden in his heart. He drank bowl after bowl of soup that he didn't like on weekdays without even realizing it. There was also the sauced pork elbow, which was obviously his favorite, but it was chopsticks. I didn’t even reach out and touch it…”

Bai Xing reminded him with a smile, "That's just what he once liked to eat. People's tastes will change. What you liked when you were a child may not be what you like when you grow up. If you can't eat anything delicious in the palace, people insist on it. I will never forget your sauce elbow, will you?"

Mrs. Bai sat there, her eyes darkened, and she sighed, "I understand the truth, but I just thought about the child who once moaned about leaving the palace, wanted to come to his grandfather's house to eat pickled pork elbows, and said that the food in the palace was not good and not to his liking. The appearance is always embarrassing."

"Hey..." Bai Xing stood up slowly, walked behind the old lady and pinched her shoulders, trying to persuade her, "What's there to be sad about? The reason why we can't eat soy pork elbow in the palace is because of the imperial dining room. Don’t you know how to cook it? No. You can’t eat it in the palace because the masters feel that eating this dish is inconsistent with their status. It’s not delicate enough on the plate and not elegant enough to eat. My cousin used to like it because I haven't eaten it before, but I think it's novel, just a kid! He doesn't like eating it now because he has grown up and realized that he is a county king... Shouldn't you be happy that your child has grown up? "

Should... be happy? Lamps were lit in the courtyard, and in the gentle evening breeze, the light and shadow swayed on the window paper. The old lady's eyes fell on the clean bluestone bricks, thinking that it was indeed a gratifying thing for the child to grow up. You no longer have to worry about him, his warmth, warmth, safety, and the trivialities of his life. , but seeing how he was making insinuations in front of her, she couldn't be happy no matter what.

What can't you say openly?

If you can't speak openly, then there might be a chilling truth behind the temptation, right? The old lady lowered her eyebrows and smiled with a bitter smile. After a while, she slowly closed her eyes and leaned back on the chair. She asked Bai Xing with a smile, "What about you? Why can't you grow up?" She held the elbow and gnawed it. The appearance has remained the same for many years...wait, sauce elbow?

Mrs. Bai suddenly slapped her back, "You damn kid! Just after you ate the pickled elbow, you wiped my clothes on your hands! My clothes are newly made!"

The sudden slap was so powerful that Bai Xing couldn't dodge it, and the back of his hand instantly turned red. He smiled "hehe" while wiping the back of his hand, picked up the tea cup next to the old lady and drank the herbal tea inside. After that, the taste of medicine in his mouth faded a little. He waved his hand and walked out. After taking two steps, he paused, turned around and grinned, his smile was charming and charming. He said, "How do you know that I haven't changed? "

He said, "I stay with you every day, and there are subtle changes every day. It is difficult for you to notice, and you even think that I have always been like this. But my brother comes rarely, and your impression of him is still there." When we met last time, we were naturally surprised by his sudden change... But these changes didn't happen suddenly after waking up, right? People are always changing, my brother is changing, I am changing, you Isn’t it different from before?”

The old lady raised her head and saw that the young man was standing at the door and turned around. He was tall and straight, with a handsome face. There was still a vague look of a child between his eyebrows, but there were some differences. The charm, eyes, and intelligence were the same, but he was confused. complex. She was surprised by the other party's words and opened her eyes slightly...

"You are just too worried. He is the king of the county. Do you really think you can control what he will become? In other words, if he does not change, he will still be the same person who only knows how to compete with me. This little kid who can't get enough and still cries, do you think... can he really hold the position of king of the county? Do you still need to rely on you to protect him at your age and on crutches? Oh, you want to say , the Bai family can protect him... but who will protect the Bai family?" In the dim light, the young man's eyes were very bright, and the candlelight in the room flickered in his eyes, like two flames at the end of the darkness. He said, "He is in the court, sitting in that position. If he wants to live, live better, protect his aunt, and by the way protect the Bai family, he has to change."

Everyone knows these truths, but emotionally speaking, Mrs. Bai has never considered the other party as a county king. To her, that child is her own grandson, the child of her own girl.

Unexpectedly, she got into trouble and was pointed out by this kid Bai Xing... She lowered her head and chuckled to herself, waving her hands, "Go away, go away! Go get some rest early..." He is obviously such a smart and transparent person, but... In daily life, he is always very generous, unwilling to succeed in his family, and unwilling to establish his career.

I really don’t know what I’m thinking.
