The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 917

Chapter 917: 421 Scheming Jiaojiao (Two Chapters)

Princess Xinyang didn’t say to throw it away, nor did she say not to, seemingly indifferent as she turned around and went into the room.

Yujin gazed at her cold and solitary figure, thought for a moment, and decided to bring the food box inside.

...

When Xiao Liulang returned to Bishui Alley, Xiao Jingkong had just come back from the other end of the alley where he had delivered mooncakes. Everyone in the neighborhood took good care of them, so Jiaojiao also made mooncakes for the neighbors.

Xiao Jingkong, having finished delivering the mooncakes, was very happy and bounced around.

He encountered the bad brother-in-law at the doorway, unexpectedly.

He immediately hid his joyous expression, becoming stern and serious, "Where have you been? I couldn’t find you just now."

Xiao Liulang, listening to his bossy little tone, was both annoyed and amused, "I went to deliver mooncakes, just like you."

"Oh." Xiao Jingkong clearly wasn’t satisfied with this not-so-specific answer and asked, "Where did you deliver?"

"To the palace," Xiao Liulang said, "To my maternal grandmother."

"Anywhere else?" Xiao Jingkong, with his hands behind his back, tilted his head and looked at him.

Xiao Liulang asked, "Why do you think there’s a ’anywhere else’ after what I said?"

Xiao Jingkong snorted through his nose, "I just feel like there is!"

The little guy’s intuition was frighteningly strong. Xiao Liulang composed himself and tousled his short hair, "Let’s go inside."

"Is there or isn’t there?" Xiao Jingkong asked.

"Why are you asking that?" Xiao Liulang said.

Xiao Jingkong puffed out his little chest and said, "I want to know who delivered more mooncakes!"

Xiao Liulang was made to laugh again, "Why do you even want to compare that? Childish."

Xiao Jingkong stamped his foot and put his hands on his hips, "I’m not childish! At least I don’t wet the bed like you, someone who’s already so grown-up!"

Xiao Liulang tapped his little head with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, "Are you sure the one who wets the bed is me and not you?"

Xiao Jingkong brushed his hand off his head, "It’s you, it’s you, just you! Bleeh bleeh bleeh!"

After sticking out his tongue, the little guy made a face at Xiao Liulang and dashed into the house.

Xiao Liulang chuckled, "And he says he’s not childish."

The family had a lively dinner in the courtyard, enjoyed the moon, and Fen Lin and Master Lu got drunk. The two men were arm in arm, and nearly made a pledge of brotherhood on the spot.
