The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72: 72 Prefectural Examination

Xiao Liulang had nothing to say.

In fact, Xiao Liulang had never raised a child before, and he didn’t know if other people’s children were as peculiar as this. _{freёwebnovel.com}

Xue Ningxiang’s child definitely wasn’t. That little one only knew how to eat, unlike the little monk that Gu Jiao brought back, who was filled with weird and bizarre thoughts.

Little Jingspace, who was peacefully waiting for his “seed” to sprout, fell fast asleep, snuggled in his blanket.

The west room, which Gu Jiao had carefully tidied and fixed up, was no longer damp. The bedding, freshly aired just a few days ago, was soft and warm.

Little Jingspace was sleeping comfortably, his little face seemed to be suffused with a blissful smile.

Xiao Liulang gave Little Jingspace a glance, then shrugged it off and continued copying texts.

Xiao Liulang copied a line, furrowed his brows slightly, put down his brush and picked up a book to read.

Soon he realized that he wasn’t really into reading either, he frowned deeply.

After a while, he turned his head, his gaze falling on the unconventionally sprawling little monk.

He stood up, walked over to the bed, bent a little at the waist, extended his slender jade-like fingers, gently untied the headscarf wrapped around Little Jingspace’s head.

Little Jingspace, deep in sleep, was oblivious to his cunning brother-in-law’s shenanigans.

Xiao Liulang looked at his rosy little face and mischievously extended his fingers to pinch and pull at it!

After finishing her work, Gu Jiao came to the west room to call Xiao Liulang for his rehabilitation exercises.

The door was open, so she walked in openly, and what she saw was Xiao Liulang lying on the bed, his exquisite hand reaching out and then retracting over Little Jingspace’s face, as if he was pulling out invisible grasses!

And he was doing it so seriously, more seriously than studying!

Gu Jiao was perplexed.

What in the world was he doing?

Was he bewitched?

Could a bookworm, of all people, be so childish when playing with a kid?

The next day, Little Jingspace was woken up by Gu Jiao.

The first thing Little Jingspace did upon waking up was to feel for his headscarf. Seeing it was still intact around his head, he heaved a sigh of relief.

An entire night had gone by, there must be sprouts by now. From now on, Jiaojiao’s kisses would always be on his face!

Gu Jiao didn’t have the heart to tell him that his little seeds and sprouts had already been mercilessly plucked clean by your brother-in-law last night!

After breakfast, Gu Jiao sent Xiao Liulang to the village entrance. Previously, she would send him alone, but now she was joined by Little Jingspace. The mother-daughter… no, sister-sister pair saw him off together.

They looked just like a family of three, quite a picture indeed!

It’s worth mentioning that Xiao Liulang had topped the county examination, earning him a certain fame in the town, and also more people seeking his service for copying books. But Gu Jiao, wanting him to focus on his preparations for the examination, forbade him from doing such jobs to supplement the family income.
