She thought it was the black raccoon that was causing trouble again, so she wrapped herself in the quilt and turned over, muttering: "Don't make trouble, let me sleep a little longer, and when the sun comes out, I will take you to go fishing."

Usually when she said this, the black raccoons would give some face and stop for a while before continuing, but this time it didn't work. Not only did the knocking on the door not stop, it became more and more urgent.

Not only did Qin Xiaoxiao wake up completely, Qin Shan in the next room yelled angrily: "Who is it, disturbing your dreams so early in the morning!"

"No matter who he is, there must be something urgent about knocking on the door at this time. Go and have a look." Lin Qiuniang urged, and she also sat up and took down the clothes on the shelf and put them on one by one.

After the couple put on their clothes and pulled on their shoes and walked under the eaves, they found that the daughter had walked to the door and opened the courtyard door. Through the dim light, they saw three people standing at the door, and the daughter was talking to them.

.

Before they could get closer, Qin Xiaoxiao led the three people in and said in a low voice: "Father, mother, these three people are from the capital and have been ordered by the Holy One to announce my entry into the palace."

"What?" Qin Shan and Lin Qiuniang were dumbfounded, their minds buzzing: The Holy One announced that their daughter should enter the palace? Could it be that the Holy One didn't agree and wanted to call the daughter to punish her?

The couple are not people who can't stand up to trouble. They regained their senses after being confused for a while. After taking a closer look at the faces of the three people, they found that one of them was an old acquaintance, and they felt a little more at ease.

Worried that her husband was clumsy and said the wrong thing, Lin Qiuniang hurriedly greeted her: "Thank you for your hard work, three adults. Come in and sit down for a while and have a cup of hot tea. The peasant woman will cook some food for the three adults."

The three of them looked at each other, and one of them with a slightly shrill voice said: "After driving all night, I have to rest before I have the strength to rush back to the palace. Why don't I accept Madam Lin's kindness?"

The speaker was a eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the adopted son of the chief steward. Most of the ministers in the court would call him "Eunuch An" when they saw him.

He would go to the Qin family every year to inspect the jujubes, and he became familiar with the Qin family every time he came there. Almost every time he came over, he would bring Qin Xiaoxiao some gadgets that were popular in the capital.

The other two were guards in the palace. Emperor Yuan He mainly ordered them to announce Qin Xiaoxiao's entry into the palace. Because Eunuch An knew where the Qin family was, Eunuch An led the way and they rushed to Qingshan Village overnight.

When the two guards saw that it was still early and they would ride back to the palace on fast horses soon, they would not miss the time, so they bowed their hands to Lin Qiuniang: "Thank you."

Lin Qiuniang waved her hands repeatedly, secretly pulling Qin Xiaoxiao, and motioned for her to follow her into the kitchen room, leaving Qin Shan to entertain Eunuch An and the other three.

At this time, Mr. Qin and Mrs. Miao also got up. Knowing the purpose of the visit of Mr. An and the others, the old couple felt a little uneasy. After drinking tea, the atmosphere gradually became harmonious, and the old man couldn't help but hit Mr. An.

wink.

Eunuch An had been warned by Jing Heng before he came. Although he couldn't reveal too much to Mr. Qin, An Yian's heart was still OK: "The Queen Mother heard that Miss Xiaoxiao is cute and lovable, so she called Miss Xiaoxiao here.

Come and talk to me, old man, don’t worry."

The Queen Mother? Mr. Qin was shocked. Even the Queen Mother was alarmed by the matter of the two children?

Thinking that the Queen Mother was Jing Heng's grandmother, he was no longer surprised. He pondered for a moment and then said tactfully: "Xiaoxiao grew up in the countryside. I was afraid that her naughty behavior would disturb the nobles."

Gonggong An understood what he heard and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother is kind and doesn't care about minor details. Besides, the young master is her most beloved grandson. For the sake of the young master, she will not embarrass Miss Xiaoxiao too much."

Mr. Qin knew what was going on, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The smile on his face became much more genuine.

As long as the Tian family doesn't deliberately make things difficult for Xiao Xiao, or even harms Xiao Xiao in order to maintain the so-called face, the marriage will be successful, and it won't be a big deal if it doesn't happen. It's not like the family sells their daughter to seek glory, and wants to marry shamelessly.

In the kitchen room, Lin Qiuniang also told Qin Xiaoxiao: "You also know that whether this marriage will happen or not depends on Mr. Jing. It's useless even if we force you. When you get to the Queen Mother, just say whatever she asks. It's inconvenient.

Just think carefully about what you say before saying it, and don’t let anyone find a reason to find fault with you.”

Qin Xiaoxiao secretly thought that if the Tian family wants to deal with you, your breathing is wrong, no matter whether you have any handle or not. Afraid of scaring her mother, she did not say it out loud, but nodded obediently: "Mother, I have a sense of propriety.

You will put yourself at risk.”

Lin Qiuniang frowned and said worriedly: "As a little girl like you, facing a person like the Queen Mother, I always feel uneasy. It would be better if Mr. Jing is here."

Qin Xiaoxiao consoled her, "Mom, it's okay. At worst, brother Li and I will break up, leaving the Tian family with no reason to find trouble."
