Rebirth: Traveling To Ancient Times As A Companion Reading Chapter 18

won

The garden is filled with purple chrysanthemums.

There is only a path left in the middle for one person to pass through.

The pavilion for viewing is built on the platform. People sitting in it can see the beautiful flowers below at a glance, which is pleasing to the eye and mind.

But Joey, who was forced to sit on the stone bench, was not in the mood to admire the purple chrysanthemum in front of him. He wished he could stay eight hundred feet away from the person next to him.

His heart was full of disgust for this person, but Joey couldn’t show it yet, so he could only keep rubbing it slowly to the side.

Joey had to vacate nearly two-thirds of the small stone bench.

Lou Ling looked at the empty space on the stone bench, half-smiling but not smiling, and said nothing.

Lou Mengli, who was sitting opposite, witnessed the whole process and was looking at the two of them with a smile. She did not forget to say to Qiao Yunlan who was sitting next to her: “This child is really well born. Sitting next to my Ling’er, he is not even half inferior to him.”

Qiao Yunlan followed and looked at the two people opposite. One was wearing a splendid robe, with eyes like stars, a face like a crown of jade, and a natural attitude. The other was short and thin, and his face was even a little yellow. Anyone with eyes would not say that the appearance and posture of the two were equal.She smiled faintly, without saying anything, and said politely: “Princess, you are joking. The prince’s young charm is famous in the capital. There is no way that ordinary people like us can compare.”

Lou Mengli listened to Qiao Yunlan’s official-style conversation. She smiled and said nothing. She just said: “This child is just a little thinner. If he is raised like Ling’er, his appearance may not be bad.”

Qiao Yunlan smiled and said nothing.

“By the way. How old is this child this year? He doesn’t look that big, but how much younger is he than Ling’er?” Lou Mengli asked.

Qiao Yunlan: “This child’s birthday has not passed this year, but he is only over ten years old.”

Lou Mengli: “Really? Ling’er’s birthday hasn’t happened yet this year, it’s only eleven. When is this child’s birthday?”

Qiao Yunlan: “The tenth day of November.”

Lou Mengli: “Really? What a coincidence? Ling’er’s birthday is also in November, only seven days earlier than this child.”

Lou Mengli and Qiao Yunlan were chatting happily here, but Joey over there wanted to escape on the spot.

Just when Joey was thinking about what excuse to use to slip away, the person next to him seemed to be very interested in his reaction and asked with interest: “Are you afraid of me?”

“Haha…” Joey laughed dryly, “How could it be? Your Majesty, you are as beautiful as a tree in the wind. You are so magnificent that I can’t even respect you. How can I be afraid of you?”

But Lou Ling didn’t accept this at all.Hearing this, he just said lightly: “Really?”

Joey: “Of course.”

Lou Ling: “But you didn’t have this attitude when you hit me yesterday.”

Joey stopped pretending. He was anxious, fearing that this person would complain in front of Qiao Yunlan and Lou Mengli: “I didn’t hit you! Don’t talk nonsense!”

This sentence was said a little hastily and in a high pitch, causing both Lou Mengli and Qiao Yunlan on the opposite side to turn their eyes.

“What’s wrong?” Qiao Yunlan asked, “Why are you so quarrelsome?”

Qiao Yunlan was afraid that Joey would be bullied. She wanted to get up to see Joey’s condition, but the moment she stood up, she was pulled back by Lou Mengli.

Lou Mengli: “It’s just a joke between two children. Let’s not get involved.”

Qiao Yunlan: “This…”

Lou Mengli looked at Lou Ling and said, “This is not the capital, so don’t show off your overbearing temper. By the way, didn’t you get a new black raccoon slave yesterday? Why don’t you bring it out to Young Master Qiao?”

Joey didn’t even think about it, “No, I…”

When Lou Ling heard this, before Joey finished speaking, he suddenly glanced at Joey and said, “Okay.” After that, he shouted, “Zhuqing, go and bring that thing over.”

A maid in a green shirt standing nearby heard the words and bowed before leaving.

Within a moment, the maid came over holding a black cat.

What a coincidence, his cat is also black?Joey thought.

But the cat didn’t seem very obedient and seemed to be struggling.

When the maid came closer, Joey could really see what the black cat looked like.

But after seeing it clearly, Joey’s pupils shrank suddenly. It was… a black handkerchief.

Realizing something was wrong, Joey suddenly turned his head and looked at Lou Ling, who was indeed looking at him with interest, as if curious about his reaction.

Depend on!I said why can’t I find it?This dead man must be sick!

Joey wanted to kill Lou Ling in his heart, but on the surface he looked envious.

“Your Majesty, this cat is so cute. I wonder where it got it from?”

“Cute?” Lou Ling glanced at the thin body of the black cat, then looked at the fierce grinning face of the black cat, and then turned to Joey, her eyes unwavering, her mouth opened and closed, but her words were merciless, “I know you are not mentally well, but I didn’t expect you to be blind.”

Joey: “I…”

After Hei Pa understood what Lou Ling said, he immediately screamed, bowed his body and bared his teeth, and shouted at people.

“Meow!”

You are ugly!You are ugly!Your whole family is ugly!

Hei Pa used his hands and feet to kick the maid’s arms with such force that she couldn’t hold on.

“Eh?!” Seeing the black cat jump out of the maid’s arms and run straight to Lou Ling, Lou Mengli stopped laughing at this time and stood up hurriedly, for fear that the black cat would be scratched by Lou Ling, “What are you doing standing there? Why don’t you catch it quickly!”

The people waiting around him all reacted instantly, and they were all hurriedly trying to catch the cat.But where would the black handkerchief be easily encountered by them?

The black cat’s body twisted flexibly, perfectly avoiding the hands reaching out to it.Everyone just followed the black cat around, causing a lot of noise and confusion in the pavilion.But in the end, not only did the cat not be caught, but the pavilion was also messed up.

“Crack!”

A teacup fell at Qiao Yunlan’s feet, and the tea spilled out and soaked the hem of her skirt.

Qiao Yunlan looked at this sudden situation and didn’t react much. She just sat in her original position and quietly watched the farce.

Until she saw the black cat running around and rushing towards Joey, Qiao Yunlan stood up and reached out to pull Joey over.

As soon as Joey opened his hand to catch the black handkerchief, he was caught off guard and was hugged by Qiao Yunlan.

“?”

Heipa, who stretched his forearms and rushed forward, didn’t expect that Joey would suddenly flash and disappear. He looked at the empty space in front of him and had no time to stop. He was about to fall and hit the stone bench.

“Meow!”

You betrayed me!

Joey heard Hei Pa’s screams and turned his head to look, only to see the tragic scene of Hei Pa falling onto the stone bench.

Joey couldn’t bear to close his eyes and could only apologize silently in his heart.

When everything calmed down, the black handkerchief was already in Lou Ling’s hand.

Unable to move, Hei Pa could only puff out his cheeks and stare at Joey resentfully. He was full of resentment but had nowhere to vent it. He could only make a grunting sound from his mouth.

Joey tilted his head silently, avoiding Heipa’s big, resentful green eyes.

Although the matter was resolved, the servants and maidservants in the pavilion were kneeling in a large area, with their heads lowered, waiting for the master’s disposal.

Lou Mengli glanced at the crowd kneeling beside him, and did not immediately give orders to deal with it. Instead, he turned to look at Qiao Yunlan and said apologetically: “I’m really sorry for frightening you and Young Master Qiao. I originally wanted to invite you to enjoy the flowers together, but I didn’t expect such an accident to happen.”

Qiao Yunlan smiled but said nothing.

“But this thing is quite manageable.” After expressing his apology, Lou Mengli turned to look at Lou Ling and asked, “Where did you get it back from?”

Lou Ling: “I met it yesterday at the Qin Mansion. I looked pitiful, so I took it back.”

When Joey heard this, he cursed in his heart without expression: “Fuck you! Is that your cat? You just take it? Shameless!”

Lou Mengli was a little surprised, “Qin Mansion?”

She looked at Qiao Yunlan.

“So there is such a thing in the Qin Mansion?” Sensing Lou Mengli’s gaze, Qiao Yunlan said calmly and calmly, “I didn’t expect that after so many years of not having a housekeeper, there are all kinds of cats, dogs, insects, and monsters in the house. It seems that we still have to deal with it.”

Having said this, Lou Mengli no longer struggled with the question of where the cat came from. She looked around the pavilion and frowned imperceptibly.

“Zhuqing.”

The kneeling maid at the head responded, “My slave is here.”

“Get the pavilion cleaned up.”

The maid leaned over and responded: “Yes.”

That’s all. Lou Mengli looked at Qiao Yunlan and smiled, “I’m so sorry. It seems that I can’t appreciate this flower today. Your trip was in vain.”

Qiao Yunlan: “No problem.”

Lou Mengli: “It seems it’s almost noon. Do you want to have lunch here today? I just happened to bring back a cook from the capital. He is the royal cook awarded by the Holy Emperor to the prince. The taste must be good.”

Qiao Yunlan obviously didn’t want to stay at Lou’s house for a long time.She smiled and said politely: “No need. I eat fast and chant Buddha’s name on weekdays, and I’m used to it.”

Lou Mengli: “This is not a big deal. What’s more, today is not the first day of the Lunar New Year, let alone the fifteenth day. Do gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas still get angry over a meal?”

Now that the words have come to this, if Qiao Yunlan refuses again, it will look very deliberate.

She hesitated, thinking that it would be okay to agree to Lou Mengli’s stay for a meal.

Qiao Yunlan was about to agree, but at this moment, Joey tugged on Qiao Yunlan’s sleeve and shouted in a soft voice: “Mom.”

Hearing Joey’s voice, Qiao Yunlan lowered her head, “What’s wrong?”

Joey: “I feel a little upset in my stomach.”

“Not feeling well?” Qiao Yunlan squatted down, “But did you eat something bad?”

Joey: “I don’t know, but it really hurts.”

Qiao Yunlan looked at Joey, with his furrowed brows, pale face, and beads of sweat on his forehead, he seemed to be really uncomfortable.She was a little worried and ignored the rudeness. She stood up and said to Lou Mengli: “Princess, Aqiao is the child I finally begged for from Bodhisattva. Although he is not my biological child, in my eyes, there is no difference between him and my biological child. So, I’m sorry. Let’s have this lunch together if we have time in the future. Sorry.”

Joey, who was holding Qiao Yunlan’s sleeves, lowered his head and curled his lips quietly.

Joey thought that with his head down, his movements were subtle enough that no one would notice his movements.But there happened to be someone who had been watching him from the beginning, and had even caught all his little moves.

Lou Ling looked at Joey’s pretentious look and didn’t know what he thought of. He suddenly sneered, then turned to Lou Mengli and shouted: “Mother Concubine.”

Lou Mengli: “Huh?”

Lou Ling: “My father sent people to escort two imperial doctors from the capital to Jiangzhou this morning. If Young Master Qiao is really feeling unwell, maybe we can let them take a look at Young Master Qiao.”

Joey froze. He raised his head in disbelief and looked at Lou Ling not far away.

Noticing Joey’s gaze, Lou Ling didn’t shy away from him at all and just looked straight at him.

“Really? I didn’t know that the imperial doctor given by the Holy Emperor would arrive in Jiangzhou so quickly. Your father is so fast.” Lou Mengli did not hesitate, turned to Qiao Yunlan and said: “If Young Master Qiao is really feeling unwell, why not go back to the Qin Mansion and ask for a doctor?”It will take a long time, so why don’t you go to the Lou family and let the imperial doctors in the palace take a look?The imperial doctors who came to Jiangzhou have all treated me before, and their medical skills are all top-notch.How about you let them take a look at the young master?”

“This…” Qiao Yunlan looked at Joey, who had his head lowered next to him. She was also worried about Joey’s physical condition, so she did not refuse and thanked him: “Then thank you, Princess and His Royal Highness.”

Joey didn’t want to go, so he asked Qiao Yunlan to leave here.But Lou Ling seemed to see Joey’s thoughts. He stared at Joey and pinched the black handkerchief’s neck, as if he was going to crush it to death in the next moment.

grass!

Joey raised his head, faced Lou Mengli and Qiao Yunlan, and showed a sweet smile: “Thank you, Princess…” After saying that, he turned to look at Lou Ling. Joey stared at Lou Ling’s face, which was not too troublesome to watch the excitement, and almost said a few words through gritted teeth, “Thank you, Your Highness…”

Lou Ling looked at Joey’s struggle and raised the corners of his lips. He seemed to be in a very good mood.

Lou Mengli: “Since the imperial doctor wants to treat Young Master Qiao at home, let’s go to A Ling’s Lingxiang Garden. We are all about the same age and can play together. I think it is better than going to other places.”

The smile on Lou Ling’s lips froze.

This time it was Joey who was proud.

He pretended to glance at Lou Ling inadvertently, and said, “This is not good. How can outsiders have the nerve to go in and rest in the residence of His Highness the Crown Prince?”

Lou Mengli: “Nothing. It’s just a room. Ah Ling is not that delicate.”

Joey looked at Lou Ling’s increasingly ugly expression, and his lips grew wider and wider. This time he sincerely thanked Lou Mengli: “Thank you very much, Princess.”

Lou Ling’s face looked uglier than if he had eaten shit.

Like a victorious rooster, Joey held his head high and even glanced at Lou Ling.

But Lou Ling didn’t even have the qualifications to refuse, so he was decided “happily and harmoniously” by a few people.

He had a stinky face, pinched the black handkerchief in his hand, and felt depressed, without saying a word.

Heipa was hurt by being scratched and shouted several times.

Joey heard the sound and looked over. He almost rolled his eyes when he saw Hei Pa being strangled.

He took a few steps forward and came to Lou Ling’s side. He put his hand on the black handkerchief, tilted his head and looked at Lou Ling with an innocent look on his face.

Lou Ling glanced at Joey indifferently, but did not loosen her grip on the black handkerchief.

Until Joey whispered something in his ear.

Lou Ling’s hand relaxed.

Joey successfully retrieved the black handkerchief.He ignored Guo Lou Ling’s dark face, happily holding the black handkerchief and turning around.

But before Joey could make a move, Lou Ling spoke in a very low voice that only the two of them could hear, “Ha! You’d better be really sick.”

Joey looked at Lou Ling without blinking an eye, and replied slowly: “I don’t need you to worry about it, Your Majesty.”
