Chapter 102: soft

  Xin You was not surprised that there would be another visitor from the Princess's mansion. Although she has no intention of repaying the favor, she also knows that no matter whether the other party's life-saving grace is sincere or for the sake of face, she can't just send a steward to give a gift, and she always needs to meet to express her gratitude.

   "Convenient." Xin You said lightly.

   Secretly gave the winking old lady a sigh of relief.

   Fortunately, the girl didn't say anything surprising.

  Ever since Xin You insisted that Qiao should be punished, the old lady knew that her granddaughter was not really a law-abiding person. This is often the case with people. With this impression, they dare not control the other party harshly, lest the other party suddenly become serious.

   "Qingqing, listen to Aunt Liu more when you arrive at the Princess's mansion."

  Aunt Liu is the aunt in charge of the Princess's mansion.

  Xin You nodded, but didn't say anything.

  Aunt Liu couldn't help but look at Xin You more, thinking that this Kou girl is young, and she looks really calm.

  The carriage of the Princess's Mansion was waiting outside. The old lady sent Xin You out in person, and watched her get into the carriage before heading back.

   "Yuzhu, ask the third girl to come to Ruyi Hall to talk with me."

  Speaking is not the goal in itself, but to express love for this granddaughter is the goal.

  Duan Yunling knew that her grandmother suddenly treated her differently because she had a good relationship with her cousin. The more she understood what the so-called family relationship was, the more she admired her independent and self-reliant cousin.

   "Miss Kou, we're here."

  Xin You got out of the carriage and followed Aunt Liu all the way in.

  The Princess's Mansion occupies a huge area. Not long after Xin You left, she saw a handsome young man in a green shirt approaching.

   "Excuse me, is this Miss Kou?" The boy came to Xinyou and asked politely.

   Aunt Liu introduced: "This is our eldest son."

   "Young Master Kong."

  The young man smiled: "My mother asked me to meet Miss Kou. My mother is accompanying Sister Sister, and I can't get away for a while. I hope Miss Kou doesn't mind."

   Facing the girl with eyebrows and eyes similar to his mother, Kong Rui couldn't help but take a few extra glances.

  He and his younger sister both followed their father's appearance. Looking at this Kou girl, I always feel like another younger sister.

  Kong Rui is cold-tempered in front of outsiders, because of this weird feeling, he can't get cold in front of Xinyou, but relaxes unknowingly.

   "I heard that Miss Kou opened a bookstore by herself. Is it the Qingsong Bookstore near the Imperial College?"

   "Yes." Xin You said concisely.

   "A few years ago, I also studied in the Imperial College, and I often went to Qingsong Bookstore to buy books. I still remember that the young owner was not a few years older than me..."

  When Princess Zhaoyang waited for someone to come, what she saw was her son who was quite interested in talking.

  She couldn't help but glanced at Aunt Liu, and Aunt Liu responded with complicated eyes.

   "I have met Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

  Princess Zhaoyang stood up and helped Xin You up herself: "Miss Kou, sit down."

   "Thank you, Your Highness."

   "Miss Kou saved the little girl, she should have gone to thank her in person, but the little girl was too frightened and couldn't get away."

   "Your Highness is too polite, the girl is just a little effort, I believe it was someone else who would have done the same."

  Princess Zhaoyang knows that this is really polite.

  She asked carefully later, Miss Kou was not the only one who was nearby at that time, but Miss Kou was the only one who dared to rush to save people in the face of danger, and was able to save Fu'er in time.

   If it was said that she felt a little pity for hearing about Miss Kou's life experience before, then Princess Zhaoyang has a great affection for the girl in front of her now.

   "Miss Kou, I have a heartless request from the Palace."

   "Your Highness has killed the daughter of the common people, what orders does His Highness have?"

Princess Zhaoyang sighed softly: "The little girl Fu'er has been in fright, even if I have this palace to comfort her, she still can't relax. Miss Kou is the one who saved Fuer, maybe it can calm Fuer down. I would like to invite Miss Kou Talk to her."

   Naturally, Xinyou would not refuse this request.

  Last night, Kong Fu slept with Princess Zhaoyang, and Princess Zhaoyang took Xin You to the room where she was placed.

  Elegant tranquilizing incense was burning in the room. Although the girl had her eyes closed, her eyelashes fluttered and she looked restless.

   I don't know if I heard something or dreamed about something, the princess Zhaoyang and Xinyou came in, and the girl sat up suddenly, crying and calling for her mother.

  The mother's voice made Princess Zhaoyang very distressed, she hurried to Kong Fu and took her into her arms, coaxing her softly: "Fu'er is not afraid, she is fine now."

   A day later, Kong Fu's condition seemed to be getting worse, shivering in the arms of Princess Zhaoyang.

   "Fu'er, look who is here."

  Kong Fu looked over slowly, her eyes widened slightly: "That sister—"

  As she spoke, she unconsciously moved outside, approaching the direction where Xin You was.

  Xin You took a look at the eldest princess Zhaoyang, and received a signal from the eldest princess, and took a few steps forward to sit on the embroidered pier beside the bed.

   "Miss Kong, are you better?" Kong Fu looked younger than Duan Yunyan, the fourth girl, and Xin You didn't know how to get along with children of this age.

   As soon as he said this, Kong Fu grabbed Xin You's sleeve.

   "Monster, monster—"

   "Miss Kong, don't be afraid, it's a boar, it's already been chopped down."

  Confu was crying and shaking her head: "As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw..."

  Princess Zhaoyang was startled: "Fu'er, can you see boars when you close your eyes?"

   Kong Fu cried and nodded.

  Princess Zhaoyang hugged her daughter distressedly: "Why didn't you tell mother."

  It turned out that Fu'er was more frightened than she thought. No wonder she couldn't sleep well all night, so she had to burn incense.

  Xin You moved slightly, and Kong Fu tugged at her sleeve: "Sister, don't go!"

   "I'm not leaving." Xin You tentatively reached out and patted Kong Fu's arm.

  Perhaps the Anshenxiang played a role, or maybe it was the person who saved her from the monster, but Kong Fu fell asleep after a while.

  Princess Zhaoyang carefully covered her daughter with a quilt, and smiled apologetically at Xinyou: "Miss Kou, please."

  The two of them walked outside lightly, and the autumn wind blew away the calming incense that was stained on their bodies.

Princess Zhaoyang looked into the distance and opened her mouth: "I was in a bad condition when I was pregnant with Fu'er, which caused Fu'er to be born prematurely, so she raised her very carefully. Fu'er has never suffered anything, maybe that's why I can't help it." Come out of your fear."

   "The scene at that time was indeed terrifying. It is normal for your daughter to have such a reaction because she is young. Your Highness, rest assured, this fear should fade away in a few days."

  Princess Zhaoyang looked at the girl with a gentle voice and comforted her, and she became curious.

  What kind of parents would raise such a calm and generous girl?

  Thinking of the death of the girl's parents, Princess Zhaoyang didn't mention this, she sighed softly and said, "I'm just worried. Even if this fear fades away, it will become a knot in Fu'er's heart."

  The worry in Princess Zhaoyang's eyes was like a feather brushing by, touching the softness of Xinyou's heart. It seems that after losing her mother, she will always soften her heart because of this.

   "Minnv has an idea, not sure if she can help Ling Ai get rid of her fear."
