Chapter 304 The dumb butler
Luo Lingyue suddenly laughed happily, with a cunning light flashing in her eyes: "I have good news for you. Chu Chengli was cheated on by Mu San and Jian Hun! Haha!"
Xiao Jinghan frowned when he heard this, but soon regained his composure. He closed his eyes and said uninterestedly, "Go to sleep!" He didn't care about this kind of gossip.
Luo Lingyue continued excitedly: "This is so gratifying! He was the one who bullied us before! Now, his retribution has come!" She became more and more excited as she spoke, with a smug smile on her face.
Xiao Jinghan sighed helplessly, opened his eyes, looked at Luo Lingyue's excited expression, and said gently: "Okay, don't be too happy, be careful not to laugh and get wrinkles." He gently touched her cheek, his eyes full of pampering.
Luo Lingyue pouted and said unhappily: "Humph, I just want to share it!"
Xiao Jinghan held her tightly in his arms and said gently, "Sleep well, there are still many things to do tomorrow."
Luo Lingyue nodded, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the warmth and tranquility of the moment.
The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into the room through the window, Luo Lingyue slowly opened her eyes and found that there was no one beside her. Xiao Jinghan had already gone to court.
At this time, Linglong came over and prepared to dress up Luo Lingyue. While they were busy, the housekeeper and four servants walked into the room. The housekeeper bowed respectfully to Luo Lingyue and said, "Princess! We are here to move the chaise longue!"
Luo Lingyue couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked, "It fits perfectly there, why do you want to move it?"
The housekeeper replied seriously, "Before the prince left, he told me to move the chaise longue away. He said he was worried that the princess would want to sleep in a separate bed. If that happened, the princess wouldn't be able to find a place to sleep."
When Linglong heard this, her eyes widened and she looked at the housekeeper as if he were an idiot, cursing in her heart: How can this person be so stupid that he can even say such a thing?
Xiao Hao, who was hiding in the dark, shook his head helplessly, thinking: Oh! There are actually people who are even less adaptable than us!
When Luo Lingyue heard this, her face turned red with shame, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into. She pretended to be calm and deliberately raised her voice to say to Linglong: "Let's go back to the general's mansion today!"
When Xiao Hao heard this, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat and thought to himself: It's over! The princess is going back to her parents' home!
Xiao Hao was extremely anxious and ran all the way to the gate of the palace. When he saw Wen Fu and Wen Gui waiting beside the carriage, he felt a little relieved, but he still walked over quickly with a nervous look.
When Wen Gui saw Xiao Hao coming, he couldn't wait to step forward and say, "Brother Hao! Has something happened to the princess?" He knew very well that the prince had deliberately left Xiao Hao behind to protect the princess. Now that Xiao Hao had hurried over, there must have been an emergency.
Xiao Hao said anxiously: "The princess has returned to the general's mansion!"
When Wen Fu heard this, he couldn't help but feel puzzled: "It is common for the princess to return to the general's mansion to visit her nephew. Why should we be in a hurry?" However, he did not realize the seriousness of the matter.
Xiao Hao pursed his lips tightly and said seriously: "I'm afraid this time it's not just as simple as returning to the general's mansion!"
He had a bad feeling in his heart that the princess was sent back to the general's mansion because of the anger she caused the housekeeper!
Xiao Jinghan had just walked down from the court when he heard Xiao Hao's words. He frowned slightly, looked at Xiao Hao and asked, "Xiao Hao, what happened?"
Xiao Hao quickly told Xiao Jinghan everything about his previous conversation with the housekeeper. Xiao Jinghan couldn't help but feel a little amused. He shook his head helplessly and said, "How about this, you ask the housekeeper to go to the general's mansion and make sure to invite the princess back! If she can't come back, then he doesn't have to come back!"
Xiao Hao hesitated, scratched his head and said, "Your Majesty! The butler is an honest man. I'm worried that he may not be able to successfully invite the princess back!"
Xiao Jinghan glanced at Xiao Hao coldly, and said in a cold tone: "In that case, then you go with the housekeeper! If you still can't invite him back, then you can go to the stable and clean it up!"
Xiao Hao immediately shut up when he heard this. At this moment, no matter what he said, it would be useless, and he could only obey orders obediently.
Seeing that Xiao Jinghan was in a bad mood, Wen Fu said carefully: "My Lord, why don't you go to the General's Mansion in person, and then return to the Palace with the Princess!"
However, Xiao Jinghan shook his head and replied, "I need to accompany His Majesty to see Prince Qin and the Fourth Prince off from the city later, so I really can't spare the time to pick up the princess."
At this moment, Luo Lingyue had just stepped into the General's Mansion, and the housekeeper of the Wang Mansion and Xiao Hao followed in. Luo Lingyue looked at the two of them indifferently and asked in a cold tone: "What are you doing here?"
The butler was about to explain, but Xiao Hao quickly grabbed his sleeve and signaled him not to speak.
Then, Xiao Hao smiled and said to Luo Lingyue: "We are here to see if the General's Mansion needs any help, and also to ensure that the princess can return to the palace safely."
Luo Lingyue and Linglong each held one of Luo Linghuai's twins. Linglong handed the little boy in her arms to Xiao Hao: "You've come just in time! Come and help us take care of the young master!"
Xiao Hao took the little dumpling with a look of despair, and the housekeeper also took the baby from Luo Lingyue's arms with a look of helplessness. It's all my fault for being so dumb and saying the wrong thing!
Xiao Hao and the housekeeper looked hopeless. They had never expected that they would be left behind to take care of the child. They could only stay in the general's mansion and shoulder the responsibility of taking care of the baby.
Xiao Hao held the child carefully, looking at the housekeeper beside him with a worried look on his face. The housekeeper also had a bitter look on his face. Facing this sudden task, he didn't know what to do.
Luo Lingyue looked at them, her lips slightly raised, revealing a smug smile. She deliberately put on a stern face and said to Xiao Hao and the housekeeper: "You must take good care of the young master! If this princess hears them crying, you must go back to the palace!" After that, she turned and left, leaving Xiao Hao and the housekeeper looking at each other in bewilderment.
So the housekeeper and Xiao Hao were busy taking care of the two little masters for the whole morning!
The two little babies needed to have their diapers changed and to be fed. They were so tired!
"Oh my, why is this little guy crying so much?" The housekeeper hurriedly walked around the yard holding the little master.
Xiao Hao was busy changing the diaper of another little guy. The little guy was twisting his body, making him a little overwhelmed.
"This should be like this... No, no..." Xiao Hao tried hard to recall the parenting knowledge he had seen before, but still seemed a little clumsy.
"I think we need some professional help." The butler said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Xiao Hao nodded: "That's right, I'll go find their nanny later!"
At this moment, the little ones seemed to feel their helplessness and their crying became louder.
"Wow ah ah..."
"Woooooooo..."
The housekeeper and Xiao Hao looked at each other, smiled bitterly, and continued to work.
