Dong, dong, dong.
The childish voice fell, followed by three solid kowtows. The little girl kowtowed really hard and quickly. Hua Yan was busy helping the old lady, but he didn't stop her. At this moment, the little girl's forehead had a faint bruise. She kowtowed with great force.
"Little girl, get up."
Lu Tang quickly helped the little girl up. Looking at the big bump on her head, her heart ached for her. This little girl was too straightforward.
Yaya was helped up by Lu Tang. She lowered her head and carefully rummaged through her cloth bag. Then, she took out something wrapped in flowery cloth. She carefully opened it and took out what she regarded as a treasure. It was actually a carved red flower.
Xiao Hua looked very ordinary and the workmanship was not very exquisite. However, this little flower was wrapped in a floral cloth that was even more exquisite and clean than the clothes she was wearing. She treated it as a treasure. Seeing her careful and anxious expression, his heart instantly warmed. This little red flower was very precious to this child.
She held up the little red flower with a devout expression and handed it to Lu Tang.
"Thank you for saving Ya Ya and Grandma, Sister. This…is for Sister.”
Ya Ya opened her mouth, her eyes sparkling.
Lu Tang couldn't bear to reject the light in the little girl's eyes, so she reached out and took it.
"Thank you. I'll keep it well.”
Ever since she acknowledged Yuan Bao as her son, her heart had inexplicably softened when she treated children.
At this moment, she suddenly heard Mu Aotian beside her exclaim. Lu Tang turned around and saw Mu Aotian raising his eyebrows, staring at the little red flower in her hand in surprise.
"Red Zhihua? Are you Master Fu's student?"
Lu Tang blinked and looked at Mu Aotian and the little girl in confusion. What kind of background did this little red flower have? Who was Old Master Fu?
Hearing Mu Aotian's question, the little girl's eyes lit up. She straightened her back and said confidently," Not yet, but sooner or later!”
Hearing the little girl's words, Mu Aotian seemed to have understood. He smiled and nodded at the little girl," Not bad, little girl. Keep up the good work."”
Having received Mu Aotian's praise, Yaya was very happy and hurriedly replied loudly.
"I will. Thank you, Uncle."
Mu AoTian nodded.
The little girl bowed to Lu Tang and Yuan Bao again." Thank you for saving my life, sister. When Yaya grows up, she will definitely repay you."”
At such a young age, he was neither servile nor overbearing. He did not shrink back in the face of power. He was still a good child who knew how to repay kindness.
Old Master Fu's student? A teacher who could teach such a quality student did not seem to be a simple person.
Lu Tang patted Yaya's head approvingly." You don't have to repay me. I wish you the best of luck to become Master Fu's student soon."”
"Thank you, sister. I will definitely work harder.”
The little girl was motivated, and her eyes instantly lit up. Her soaring spirit seemed to be filled with endless motivation and hope, which made Hua Yan's heart flash with envy.
Such a young child had such a clear goal and the belief to work hard for it. It was indeed something that made people envious.
……
At this moment, Mu Aotian had already figured out the cause and effect of the matter thanks to Yaya and her grandmother. At this moment, he looked coldly at Chu Hailan, who was standing at the side with an unworried expression. The subordinate who had bumped into Lu Tang on his horse was hiding behind her, not even daring to breathe loudly.
"This king's daughter has always been kind, gentle and dignified, and has never done anything bad to others. Since she was young, she couldn't even bear to step on an ant. Four years ago, she was secretly harmed by a traitor, and rumors spread all over the sky, forcing my son to leave his hometown. Now, my son has returned home, but he is blocked at the city gate. "So it was your men who had run their horses on the street, knocked over stalls, and injured pedestrians. My son had a conflict with you because he wanted to save someone. King Kang's Imperial Residence has raised a bunch of good subordinates. It seems that I should have a good talk with Prince Kang about this matter tomorrow."”
Mu Aotian's words caused Chu Hailan's face to turn pale, and she almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Mu Aotian, you're not done yet, are you?
She had already retreated to the side, but she still refused to let go and even mocked her father.
Look at how Mu AoTian was speaking righteously, but he was not being ambiguous when praising his daughter. Was he kind-hearted? Gentle and dignified? Pah, who was the one who crippled the son of the Minister of War with a single palm! Was he blind?
How dare she bring up what happened four years ago? Shameless!
……
On the other side, when Lu Tang heard Mu Aotian's words, she couldn't help but rub her ears. She was kind, gentle, and dignified. She really couldn't bear these words. So, she became the Eldest Miss of the Mu Family, Mu Aotian's daughter, and she also wanted to become this Mu Haitang?
No, no, no.
She couldn't do it.
However, before Mu Aotian could finish his words, he immediately said," Today, this Prince will say this. In the future, if anyone dares to speak nonsense about this Prince's daughter or touch my Mu family's daughter, my Mu family will not let them off!”
Bang!
The red tasseled spear in his hand shook violently.
His deep voice carried a deterrent force that spread to everyone's ears.
Originally, the onlookers could only see the actions of the grandfather and grandson because they were far away. They could not hear their conversation. However, when they heard Mu Aotian's words, they immediately understood.
After a brief silence, a loud shout erupted from the crowd." Support Miss Mu, support Lord Mu."”
Then, more voices sounded.
"Miss Mu is a good person."
"We believe in Miss Mu."
"The Mu family is full of loyal officials. They love their country and the people.”
"Miss Mu, we believe you. Welcome home.”
The shouts rose and fell again, each louder than the last.
Chu Hailan's face darkened. She couldn't stay any longer. She called out to her subordinates and left in a hurry.
As she left, someone led the way and actually clapped.
The thunderous applause lasted for a long time.
The malicious, guessing, and mocking gazes from before were now filled with warmth and trust.
Lu Tang's heart was once again shaken by Mu Aotian. Fatherly love was boundless. She looked at the grandfather and grandson who were looking at her gratefully. One was old and the other was young. They were weak, but they knew how to repay kindness and were not afraid of power. Such people made Hua Yan respect them, and her heart burned strangely.
"Auntie, if someone comes looking for trouble with you in the future, go to Runan wangfu to report it.”
Lu Tang was afraid that Chu Hailan would hold a grudge and blame the humiliation on the two of them.
"Thank you, Miss Mu."
"Thank you, sister."
The old granny and Ya Ya thanked him gratefully.
Lu Tang was not used to it and quickly waved her hand.
……
"Let's go, girl. It's time to go home."
Mu Aotian picked up Yuan Bao and helped Lu Tang onto the horse. He wanted to hurry home. At this moment, the old butler of the Mu family finally caught up. He greeted Lu Tang with tears in his eyes and listened to his instructions to lead Lu Tang's donkey, Little Flower, back to the residence.
The crowd at the city gate retreated to both sides, making way for Mu Aotian and Lu Tang.
Lu Tang turned his head and saw everyone's gazes gathering as they sent each other off. The grandfather and grandson duo even waved their hands vigorously.
Lu Tang saw that the little girl's forehead was swollen. It was because she had kowtowed too hard previously. Her heart softened. Hua Yan moved closer to Yuan Bao's ear and said," Son, that little girl's forehead is injured. Give her an ointment to promote blood circulation."”
