Princess Medical Doctor-Chapter 944: Reputation, frightened
Chapter 944: Reputation, frightened
The Dongyang family's calculations were very good. They will never reveal their true colors from the beginning. They will approach Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu warmly, and do their best to help the two of them gain a foothold in the Central Empire. It was best to let the two owe the Dongyang family a big favor, and then……
They will ask Lin Chujiu to treat their eldest son. At this time, Lin Chujiu must not be able to refuse.
If Lin Chujiu can cure him, everyone will be happy. If she cannot be cured, they will start to play the tenderness card and try to persuade Lin Chujiu. But if this also didn't work, then they will use the next tactic, coercion.
The Dongyang family prides itself on being the head of the imperial family and has always flaunted itself as a benevolent and righteous gentleman. Simple and crude methods have never been their first choice.
Compared with taking things by force, they prefer to let the world see their demeanor and see that even though they were from a noble family, they never forced themselves on others, and even though they were arrogant, they were not that arrogant.
In any case, they can achieve their goals with a generous facade, and they can get more praise, so why not do it?
In the eyes of the people of the Dongyang family, the best option for this matter would be, for Lin Chujiu could heal the eyes of the eldest son of the Dongyang family. The next option would be, for Lin Chujiu will agree to become a sacrifice. The worst option would be, they would exchange huge benefits for Lin Chujiu's consent and give them this gift. Treating the matter as a transaction. However, the next best option would be to use coercion, but in the end, they will never use coercion. This was too high-profile.
The Dongyang family has no social connections with Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu. The best way to have a good relationship with Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu naturally would be through the Hua Family. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝑏𝘯𝘰𝑣𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
The Dongyang Family and the Hua Family were related by marriage. The eldest son of the Dongyang family was also the grandson of the Hua Family. So now, the eldest son called the current headmaster of the Hua Family uncle.
However, to keep it secret, only the headmaster of the Dongyang family and the Hua Family knew about this matter. After all, this fact was not glorious.
With such a thing in mind, it was normal for the Hua Family to treat Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu favorably. However, the headmaster of the Hua Family also understands that everything is too much, so he exchanges a few words with Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu and then leaves the home to go to the palace court. He left the rest to the eldest young master of the Hua Family.
The eldest son of the Hua Family did not know this. He sincerely recognized Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu. Hearing his father say to treat them favorably, he helped them if he could. It was his duty to help as the eldest son of the Hua Family.
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu came to visit this time because they were invited by Master Hua to get to know each other. They also wanted to let people see the attitude of the Hua Family. They talked about both relevant and irrelevant matters.
After a few words, Hua Jinrong asked someone to bring Young Master Xiao Jiu over. Young Master Xiao Jiu was now almost two years old. He can walk and can call people.
Perhaps a child who has just learned to walk doesn’t like being held. As soon as he stepped into the flower hall, he struggled to get down and walk. The nanny didn’t dare to disobey, so she had to put him down and walk on her own.
Young Master Xiao Jiu was wearing bright red clothes today, with a piece of gold and jade hanging around his neck. He had a chubby face and walked in with a swaying step on his short legs. He looked very festive and cute, no matter what, Xiao Tianyao couldn't help but smile.
If he and Lin Chujiu have a child, he will be cuter than the little one from the Hua Family, right?
Thinking of this, Xiao Tianyao couldn't help but focus on Lin Chujiu's belly, but when he thought about that day, he knew that he was too eager. It was less than half a month. Even if Lin Chujiu was pregnant, he wouldn't be able to find out.
While Xiao Tianyao was thinking wildly, Xiao Jiu had already walked up to them. His big eyes looked at Lin Chujiu for a while, then at Xiao Tianyao, and then at Hua Jinrong. His innocent little face was full of doubts.
Hua Jinrong couldn't help but laugh the moment Xiao Jiu appeared. Seeing her little brother look stupid, the smile on his face couldn't help but get bigger.
“Xiao Jiu, come to eldest brother’s place.” Seeing his younger brother looking confused, Hua Jinrong waved his hand, but……
Xiao Jiu ignored him and just stared at Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu seriously. He even took a step forward and walked closer, then raised his little head and looked at the two of them very seriously.
Lin Chujiu and Xiao Tianyao smiled and said nothing. Even though the Hua Family's ninth young master was right in front of them, they had no intention of getting close to him.
It was not that they didn’t like the child. No one would hate a child under two years old. They just don’t want to use the Hua Family’s Ninth Young Master to build a relationship with the Hua family.
However, the two of them did not want to get too close to Xiao Jiu, but Xiao Jiu wanted to get close to them. No matter how Hua Jinrong shouted or waved, Xiao Jiu never looked at him. His little head was turning in between Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.
“This child has been thinking about you all the time. He calls you big brother whenever he speaks, but he doesn’t call me.” Hua Jinrong shook her head helplessly, looking jealous.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Jiu, who had been undecided, suddenly pounced on Xiao Tianyao!
Yes, it was not Lin Chujiu, but Xiao Tianyao. Xiao Jiu stepped forward with his little calf, hugged Xiao Tianyao's leg fiercely, and called out: "Big brother!"
Xiao Tianyao froze instantly and almost kicked Xiao Jiu away. He sat motionless on the chair as the smile on his face froze for a moment.
He has never come into contact with such a small and soft thing. How can he get away with this thing without hurting him?
"Brother, hug…" Xiao Jiu looked familiar with Xiao Tianyao. Seeing that no one was picking him up after hugging his thigh for a long time, he pouted and opened his arms to signal Xiao Tianyao to pick him up.
"It seems that Xiao Jiu likes you." Hua Jinrong looked amused, but there was nothing he could do about his younger brother.
"I don't know how to hold a child." As soon as Xiao Jiu let go, Xiao Tianyao's tense nerves relaxed, but he had no intention of picking up Xiao Jiu.
It was not that he didn’t want to hold the child, it was because he didn’t know how to hold the child at all.
"You'll have to learn it sooner or later, so learn it first." Hua Jinrong glanced at Lin Chujiu with a hint.
Just now, Xiao Tianyao looked at Lin Chujiu’s belly secretly, but he still saw it.
He thought Prince Xiao from the East wanted to have an heir.
"Wangye…" Seeing Xiao Tianyao's stiff body, Lin Chujiu wanted to step forward and pick up Xiao Tianyao to relieve Xiao Tianyao's embarrassment, but Xiao Tianyao bent down and picked up Xiao Jiu.
Hua Jinrong was right. He and Lin Chujiu would also have children in the future. He should try it with other people's children first so that it would be easier to hold their children in the future.
Xiao Tianyao carefully picked up Xiao Jiu, but he did not dare to use force. His arms were extremely stiff, for fear that if he used force, he would crush the child in his arms.
This position was not only uncomfortable for adults but also for the child being held. However, Xiao Jiu didn't care at all. When he saw Xiao Tianyao holding him, he stretched out his hands, put his arms around Xiao Tianyao's neck, and nestled in Xiao Tianyao's arms like a baby: "Big Brother, hug hug…"
Xiao Jiu can pronounce words very clearly, but he still likes to repeat words when speaking.
As soon as Xiao Jiu moved, Xiao Tianyao's whole body stiffened even more, as if someone was holding him in place. But this time, no one came to help him. Lin Chujiu was watching the show.
Xiao Tianyao didn't know how serious the expression on his face was when he picked up Xiao Jiu. People who didn't know about it would thought he was rushing to the execution ground……
