Chapter 2763 The Hou Mansion Is My Own Home
The children have admired the ancient weapons on the entire wall one by one. When they find one they particularly like, they will ask Mingcheng to take it down and play with it for a while.
This love cannot be faked.
Mingxuan passed by and saw the two of them joking in front of a room full of weapons.
She looked a little startled at the confident and bright smile on her son's face.
It seemed that her son had never shown such a free and wanton smile in front of her.
Could it be that she was really too harsh on him?
The toddler was the first to notice her at the door and said with a smile, "Auntie is here."
When Mingcheng heard this, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.
Mingxuan saw it so clearly that her heart couldn't help but feel hurt.
"Mother." Mingcheng saluted respectfully.
Mingxuan walked in and said with a forced smile: "They were all playing there, it was so lively. I didn't see you two, but you hid here. What are you doing?"
The child smiled and said: "Aunt, I just realized that Brother Cheng has collected so many ancient weapons. I have never seen most of them. I was fascinated by them and wasted time."
"These are just scraps of metal. Only Chenger likes to tinker with these useless things."
"No, these are very good things." The child defended Mingcheng.
"Yes, yes, they are all good things, but my aunt doesn't know how to appreciate them." Mingxuan said with a smile, "Cheng'er, the princess likes them so much, why don't you pick some good ones and give them to the princess."
Mingcheng said: "Let the second princess choose the child. The second princess doesn't want it."
The child said: "Mother does not allow us to ask for other people's things outside."
"Why?"
"The queen mother said that when others give us things, it is just because of our status that we take away their beloved things. The queen mother also said that if we like something, we must spend our own money to buy it, and we must not take it from others for nothing." Toddler. The sound is crisp and clear.
Mingxuan stretched out her hand to touch her cheek and smiled: "That's someone else's house, this is the Marquis' Mansion, and it's my own home. Ask Cheng'er if he really gave it to you? Don't just suppress your mother's words. People, it’s obvious that you two, mother and daughter, treat us as outsiders.”
Mingcheng immediately said: "If it were anyone else, I would definitely be reluctant to part with it. But the second princess really loves and appreciates these ancient weapons. It is rare to find a close friend in life. I am very willing to share it with the second princess. Please choose the same one."
Hearing his sincerity and what his aunt said, it was no longer easy to refuse, so he jumped out with a small bronze dagger.
Palm-sized, simple and exquisite, in good condition, just suitable for stuffing into boots for self-defense.
Mingcheng was very happy to see that she was finally willing to accept it, and said: "Next time I have other good things, I will invite the princess to see them."
"Yeah."
The child clapped his hands and said, "Don't forget it."
Mingxuan smiled and shook her head: "How come such a white and beautiful noble man doesn't like jewels and silks, but he likes these tattered weapons? It's really hard to figure out."
"Mother, those things are already commonplace for the second princess. Just like three meals a day, who would be specifically interested in those things?"
"Cheng'er's words make sense." Mingxuan smiled, "Okay, you two, don't stay here and go play outside for a while."
The two agreed and left after her.
Mingcheng fell behind.
The toddler asked him: "What's wrong with you?"
Mingcheng shook his head and said with a smile: "I just saw my uncle and Wuji and the others together, and I felt a little emotional."
He has no father and has never seen one.
