Chapter 159: Adopting Xiao Xiao as your goddaughter
Just as Jiang Wanqing was pondering what Eunuch Fang Su had said.
But then, Eunuch Fang Su suddenly said, "If Miss Jiang doesn't mind, how about I take Xiao Xiao as my goddaughter?"
Goddaughter?
Jiang Wanqing's face began to crack.
Incredibly, he said, "Eunuch Fang Su? Are you kidding me?"
Adopt Xiaoxiao as your daughter.
Could it be that she heard it wrong?
Or is Eunuch Fang Su crazy?
Isn't it said that Eunuch Fang Su has always been unkind and murderous?
How come you still have the leisure and elegance to adopt a daughter nowadays?
She admitted that her daughter was cute.
But, could it be that just because he is cute, he conquered Eunuch Fang Su, who is feared by thousands of children?
This is not the character of Eunuch Fang Su.
Unexpectedly, when Xiaoxiao in Eunuch Fang Su's arms heard this, she kicked her legs excitedly.
He was babbling something in his mouth.
The smile on his face couldn't be hidden.
Eunuch Fang Su said, "Miss Jiang, you heard it right. This governor wants to adopt Xiao Xiao as his daughter. For a daughter like this, Zhou Zigu is not worthy of being her father."
Jiang Wanqing thought to himself: Are you worthy of being my little dad?
But Jiang Wanqing naturally didn't dare to say this out loud.
At that moment, he said hesitantly: "Perhaps Xiaoxiao doesn't want to? Otherwise, when Xiaoxiao grows up, if she is willing, she can recognize me as her father, that's fine too."
Jiang Wanqing looked at Xiaoxiao's worthless smile and felt that what she said was a bit against her will.
Eunuch Fang Su lowered his head and glanced at Xiaoxiao.
[Xiaoxiao, if you want me to be your daddy, can you just blink your eyes? ]
Eunuch Fang Su hadn't finished speaking yet.
Xiaoxiao, who had kept her eyes wide open, quickly blinked hard.
When Fang Sugong saw this, he slowly raised the corners of his lips.
With a tone of relief, he said, "It seems that Xiaoxiao also wants to recognize me as his father."
Jiang Wanqing looked at Eunuch Fang Su, and then at Xiaoxiao.
She also realized that Eunuch Fang Su had no ill will towards Xiao Xiao.
If Eunuch Fang Su had any ill will towards me, he would not have helped me like that in the previous few times.
Jiang Wanqing was finally defeated.
Facing Eunuch Fang Su: "Since Xiaoxiao is willing, I have nothing more to say."
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Fang Su stretched out his slender white jade fingers and hooked them around the small finger.
He lowered his voice: "I should be your father."
Jiang Wanqing, who was distracted, obviously did not hear these words.
Eunuch Fang Su turned back to look at Jiang Wanqing and said, "Don't worry, my relationship with Xiao Xiao will not be seen by outsiders. After all... it's not glorious. In the future, I will treat Xiao Xiao like my own son."
To Xiaoxiao, her current identity was not very glorious.
No wealthy family would let their children have a eunuch as godfather.
Jiang Wanqing lowered her eyes and glanced at Eunuch Fang Su.
I didn't expect the other party to have considered this aspect.
However, if Eunuch Fang Su really treats Xiao Xiao as his own son.
Doesn’t this mean that the safety of small lives is more secure?
After all, no matter what, Eunuch Fang Su is the Grand Commander of the East Factory.
He has many talented people under his command.
Jiang Wanqing slowly said, "Xiaoxiao's father has never fulfilled his responsibilities. If Eunuch Fang Su can establish a fatherly image for Xiaoxiao, that would be a good thing."
Eunuch Fang Su did not reply, but just hooked his little finger.
Just take it as a tacit consent.
Jiang Wanqing took a deep breath.
Then he asked, "How come you knew what I wanted to do so coincidentally during the day?"
Coincidentally, he also brought a few maids with him.
Jiang Wanqing just felt that those maids were specially prepared for her.
Eunuch Fang Su held Xiao Xiao in his arms and sat on the chair.
He said casually: "Everything is under my control."
When Jiang Wanqing heard this, her expression changed slightly, and when she looked at Eunuch Fang Su, there was a hint of wariness in her eyes.
He asked, "Did you place spies in the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion?"
Eunuch Fang Su turned around and met Jiang Wanqing's puzzled eyes.
He admitted it generously.
Nodded: "Yes, not only in the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion, but also in your huge capital, there are spies everywhere in the capital. After all, I am also a minion of the emperor now.
However, I still have the final say on what matters His Majesty can and cannot know. "
Jiang Wanqing couldn't help but take a breath.
"How much do you know about the affairs of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion?"
Eunuch Fang Su replied: "Are you saying that Zhou Zigu faked his death? Or that Zhou Musheng is Zhou Zigu's child? Or did you cheat Song Nansheng out of five thousand taels of gold today?"
As he spoke, Eunuch Fang Su glanced at the money on the table.
Not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Miss Jiang, you really are... a little money-grubber."
Previously in Wuyou Pavilion, he had also cheated Song Nansheng out of a large sum of money.
Jiang Wanqing pursed her lips and said, "Who in the world can't get along with money?"
However, she felt a sense of danger in her heart. She had not expected that Eunuch Fang Su's spies were so deep.
If I hadn't heard the small voice, I wouldn't have known these things.
But, Eunuch Fang Su actually knew everything.
Eunuch Fang Su echoed: "That's true."
Jiang Wanqing blinked.
He took a step forward and looked down at Eunuch Fang Su.
"Now that you are already my little godfather, shouldn't we make some things clear?"
Eunuch Fang Su raised his head and faced Jiang Wanqing.
With confusion in his eyes, he said with a half-smile: "Now that we have just been recognized as godparents, you are trying to manipulate the relationship. Tell me, what's the matter?"
Jiang Wanqing didn't reply, but walked to the dressing table not far away.
He took out two pairs of jade bracelets with carved patterns on them.
Then he returned to Eunuch Fang Su's side and placed the table on the table.
He asked, "Should Eunuch Fang Su explain this table to me?"
There are two pairs of silk-wrapped carved jade bracelets placed on the table, except for the patterns.
The other textures and colors are exactly the same.
Eunuch Fang Su followed Jiang Wanqing's line of sight and took a look.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he replied in a low and pleasant voice: "It's just two pairs of tables, what's the matter? The carvings on these tables are good, they look nice, and they suit Miss Jiang."
Jiang Wanqing frowned.
He said slowly: "Earlier, I asked you, Lord Fang Su, to give the bracelet to Lady Yan of Wuyou Pavilion, but you said that I could just pick up a pair of fake bracelets.
But why, when Song Nansheng redeemed them, they turned out to be a pair of bracelets, exactly the same as mine, except for the different patterns. Where did you get these bracelets?"
Jiang Wanqing was still very curious but didn't ask.
When she asked Eunuch Fang Su to give the bracelet to Madam Yan, she clearly noticed that Eunuch Fang Su seemed a little unhappy.
However, after she made her intention clear, Eunuch Fang Su's fear of something being wrong disappeared.
