Chapter 558: Chapter 557: Su Zixuan, First Place in County Examination_1
“Hehe.”
The Little Prince laughed happily, holding up Baoya to cover his face.
Slender jade fingers pinched the soft belly of Baoya.
“Ow.”
Baoya’s small body shuddered, and it cried out with a tender, aggrieved voice.
“Great joy, great joy.”
As the siblings laughed and played, Zizhu came running back from the direction of the Lotus Pond, her voice arriving before she did.
“Miss, Madam asked Ying’er to come and deliver a message, saying that the Su Clan sent news from the countryside: Young Master Zixuan’s County Examination results are out, and he got first place.”
“My brother is the top scorer in the County Examination!”
Lin Qingluo’s heart trembled as she looked towards the courtyard entrance, unable to conceal her happiness.
“Miss, Ying’er has come to congratulate you.”
Ying’er and Zizhu entered the courtyard one after another, holding a family letter and smilingly handing it to Lin Qingluo.
Lin Qingluo opened the letter, scanning through it with her eyes filling with tears of excitement.
“Great, Mother said they’ve already decided. The whole family will move to Capital City.”
“Will Maodou, Heidou and the others come too?”
The Little Prince listened, his big eyes shining.
“They’ll come.”
Lin Qingluo was full of joy, “Niuniu and Sister Wan will come too. The whole family will come.”
The Little Prince was delighted, “Great, they’ll come and have someone to play with me.”
Lin Qingluo’s eyes twinkled with laughter, “Mother wrote in the letter that they will set off in ten days. It takes at least four days to send a letter from the countryside. So, counting the days, it’s six days until they set off and they should arrive by the end of August.”
“Still so long!”
The Little Prince’s face suddenly fell, and his black eyes spun as he clung to his sister again.
“Sister, can you ask Father to let me stay at Duke of Zhen’s mansion? I don’t want to return to the palace. If I return to the palace, I can’t play with Maodou, Heidou and the others.”
“You can stay for a few days.”
Lin Qingluo frowned slightly, “But can your Empress Mother agree if you stay longer? If you want to play with Maodou and the others, wouldn’t it be better to bring them into the palace and play in the imperial garden?”
“I don’t want to stay in the palace, I’m scared!”
The Little Prince didn’t get his wish, pursing his lips, tears started to well up in his eyes.
“Oh dear, when did Xuan’er learn to change faces?”
Lin Qingluo looked at the sulking Little Prince quite amused, a teasing smile on her face, “This face-changing speed is almost on par with famous opera actors.”
“Sister, you’re teasing Xuan’er again. I won’t talk to you.”
The Little Prince really cried this time. Tears fell like beads off a broken thread, big and round.
“Alright, alright, sister will talk to your father about not returning to the palace.”
Lin Qingluo helplessly supported her forehead, switching back to coaxing mode.
**
The Noble Lord agreed very easily, without any hesitation, promising that the Little Prince could stay at Duke of Zhen’s mansion for a long time.
The Little Prince happily played with Baoya in the Fluttering Snow Residence, his cheerful laughter echoing in the small courtyard, making everyone feel equally at ease.
At the blink of an eye, the end of August arrived. Su Hu and his wife brought their entire family to the Capital City.
Since the couple intended to live in the Capital City for a long time, they brought not only their family but also their pets.
The three big dogs, Snow Fox, Soybean, and Jujube, all came without a single one missing.
Shitou and Feng Yi also came back.
Lin Qingluo was informed that her foster parents were coming, so she brought Wang Meng and the Little Prince to the Su House to visit her family. The reunion of the whole family made everyone feel warm and cozy.
The three big dogs saw the Little Prince and excitedly played around him, their tails wagging as if they were about to break off.
Snow Fox was still aloof, proudly raising its head as it lay on the roof of the house, disdainful to get close to people.
