Chapter 18
After sending Qiao Mingsi away, Qiao Xi felt relieved.
He is really not good at having fun with people, not even his younger brother, let alone other people.
He took advantage of the Spring Festival to visit Jiang's house again. There are many Jiang's family members, and they are always lively.
Now the Jiang family has another Wang Xian. His mother, Ms. Huang, didn't return to S City in Hainan, so he didn't go to see his mother, and just stayed at Jiang's house.
Living under the fence would not be too comfortable, and he was already seventeen or eighteen years old, and he was going to be an adult, so he naturally wanted to think more.
Qiao Xi has been in City B since New Year's Eve. This is the first time he has come to his mother's place after returning to City S, but this is not the first time he has seen Wang Xian. When I came to see his mother, I only met Wang Xian once.
At that time, Wang Xian had just arrived at Jiang's house, wearing a sweater and jeans, standing silently by the side, and when Professor Jiang introduced him to Qiao Xi, he stepped forward timidly to say hello to Qiao Xi.
The Jiang family's house is spacious, and it won't look crowded if there is one more person, let alone the food and clothing of this person, so raising one more person is not a big deal for the Jiang family.
Since Ms. Luo is willing, Qiao Xi will not have any objections.
However, it could be seen that Wang Xian was a little afraid of Qiao Xi, he didn't dare to speak loudly to Qiao Xi that day, and only looked at him timidly from a distance.
Qiao Xi didn't like to communicate with people, so apart from dealing with Yaoyao's eloquent topic that day, she didn't take the initiative to talk to Wang Xian even a word, but Wang Xian saw his cold face and thought he didn't like her , I dare not take the initiative to find him to enhance communication.
So after spending a whole day together under the same roof that day, Qiao Xi's impression of Wang Xian was "the shy son of that very noisy Ms. Huang".
Qiao Xi didn't feel bad about Wang Xian's silence and cowardice. He really didn't like Ms. Huang's kind of person, so it's better that Wang Xian wasn't her kind, otherwise Wang Xian might not be able to stay in Jiang's house.
This time, Wang Xian had already lived in Jiang's house for a while, and when he saw Qiao Xi, he felt a little more at ease than before.
When Qiao Xi entered the room, he hurriedly got his special slippers for Qiao Xi, still timidly, a little flattering: "Your slippers."
Qiao Xi thanked her, and after changing her slippers, she took a red envelope from her bag and handed it to him: "Happy New Year!"
There was no special expression on Qiao Xi's face, but Wang Xian was still flattered, and bowed to him after receiving the red envelope: "Happy New Year."
"You're welcome!" Qiao Xi replied, seeing Yaoyao running over, she hugged him.
Yaoyao touched his face affectionately: "Brother, I miss you so much."
Qiao Xi's heart was as sweet as being drowned in honey, and she kissed Yaoyao's face.
Wang Xian followed behind the two of them, looking at Qiao Xi's back with a dazed expression.
Qiao Xi gave Jiang Xingzhi and Yaoyao another red envelope, and the servants who were still working at home also had red envelopes.
Qiao Xi then went to the study to chat with Ms. Luo, and talked about what happened in Qiao's house these days. In fact, nothing special happened in Qiao's house.
Ms. Luo nodded in agreement, and said, "Chujiu will go to visit your father's grave. They won't go there, Chujiu?"
The tomb of Qiao Xi's father is in the cemetery of Qiao's family in County P, but it is actually just a clothes tomb. The ashes are not there, but in the Qiao family's ancestral hall.
Qiao Xi said: "They won't come back, they won't come until Qingming."
Ms. Luo was relieved, she didn't like dealing with Qiao's family.
Qiao Xi asked about Wang Xian: "Is he okay here?"
Ms. Luo said: "It's not like his mother, but he is a down-to-earth kid. Yaoyao also likes him."
Qiao Xi was relieved.
It's just that he didn't know why his mother took in this child, so he couldn't help asking.
Ms. Luo said: "Well, he is a child after all, and his mother is like that, so he is also pitiful."
Although Ms. Luo has a strong personality and tough style, she still has the softness of a woman in her heart. The company has a special funding fund to support poor students and allocate to welfare homes.She even goes to see those kids every year.
She should still like children very much, although she never took care of Qiao Xi before, and she doesn't take care of Yaoyao now.
Jiang Xingzhi was called into the room by Wang Xian, and she looked curious: "Brother Xian, what's the matter?"
Wang Xian handed her a box: "Help me give this to Brother Qiao Xi."
Jiang Xingzhi was taken by Wang Xian when she was a child, played with him, cooked and ate by him, and was guided by him in homework, so she had a deep affection for Wang Xian, and asked with a smile: "What is this, why did you give it to Brother Qiao Xi?" .”
Wang Xian said, "Don't open it. Just give it to him and say it's a Spring Festival gift from me."
Jiang Xingzhi said "Oh", "Why don't you give it yourself?"
Wang Xian didn't answer.
Jiang Xingzhi: "Are you afraid of him?"
Wang Xian frowned and didn't answer.
Jiang Xingzhi smiled and said, "Brother Qiao Xi is a nice person. Although he looks cold, he is a nice guy. Don't be afraid of him."
"Just give it to him for me." Wang Xian insisted.
Jiang Xingzhi had no choice but to agree, and said in a nympho: "He is so good-looking, the queen is beautiful, haha."
Wang Xian knew what she meant, but he was shy by nature and didn't like to joke, so he didn't answer the conversation, but asked her to go out quickly to see if Qiao Xi came out of the study.But Qiao Xi and Ms. Luo had a lot to talk about, and they kept talking about dinner time.
Therefore, when Qiao Xi left Jiang's house, he received a box from Jiang Xingzhi. Jiang Xingzhi said, "It's a New Year's gift from Brother Xian."
Qiao Xi received it in his hand, but didn't see Wang Xian, so he just said to Jiang Xingzhi, "Thank him for me." Then he left.
He returned home and threw the box on the cabinet in the hall. After entering the house, he thought about it and went back to the hall. He took the box in his hand and opened it to see what was inside. There was something wrong on one side - when he found out that it was a black silk headband, he was stunned for a moment, thinking that the child had a heart and knew how to give him something he could use, and this hair tie was quite suitable for him.
Because it was so practical, Qiao Xi used it.
When he went to Lu's house to attend the engagement wedding the next day, he also tied his hair with this hair tie.
The Lu family's engagement banquet was held in a five-star hotel, and it was well organized. Qiao Xi arrived earlier, thinking that he could help Lu Donglin, but Lu Donglin showed his unreliable qualities at this time, Qiao Xi At that time, he, the engaged party, was not there.
Qiao Xi was picked up by the butler of the Lu family.
Qiao Xi asked, "When will Lu Donglin arrive? Is he at home now?"
Butler Bian has been in the Lu family for a long time, and he is quite familiar with Qiao Xi. He basically regards him as his own family, and talks to him in his own language: "I don't know when the young master will come over. He drank a drink last night. It's too much, and I'm still in bed, and he didn't answer the phone call, so I called home, and the nanny answered the phone to find out the situation."
Qiao Xi knew that Lu Donglin would be so unreliable, so he could only ask, "What about the woman, is she here?"
The housekeeper said: "Here, in the presidential suite on the 29th floor. But she is accompanied by her girlfriends and relatives, and it is inconvenient to see male guests now."
Qiao Xi sighed: "Then I'll go to Lu's house to see Lu Donglin first, and bring him here."
The butler thanked him with a smile: "That would be great. The young master is actually quite afraid of you. He will listen to what you say."
This made Qiao Xi strange: "Is he afraid of me?"
The housekeeper said: "It should be that he cares about your opinion. The young man likes to do his own way, even if it is the opinion of the husband, he often does not listen."
Qiao Xi was moved by her words, both happy and a little sad, but no matter how turbulent his heart was, there was no unnecessary expression on his face, and he asked in a low voice: "I didn't ask before, what's wrong with Miss Mu?" Is it special? Why is Lu Donglin getting engaged to her so soon."
The butler sighed, and said, "It's not because I'm losing my temper with my husband."
Qiao Xi was startled: "Why are you getting engaged after losing your temper with your uncle?"
"Mr. said that he is useless. It is better to get married. After all, he is not too young. It is better to get married and have a child first."
Qiao Xi didn't believe it was such a reason at all: "How could he get married for such a reason? Is that Miss Mu a good candidate?"
The housekeeper said: "Actually, she is a nice person with a good temper. Both husband and wife like her."
That snake face? !like it all?
Qiao Xi really couldn't understand these people, so she could only think that maybe the other party's temper was really good.
"What does her family do?"
The housekeeper also turned away, and said to him, "It's from Q City. It's not bad for real estate and shipping. Her father is Mu Jiashu. I don't know if you've heard of it."
Qiao Xi shook his head. He hadn't heard of it before, so the butler introduced him a little bit, and Qiao Xi understood that although the Mu family was not as good as the Lu family, it was still a very powerful family, and the Mu family tree was still with him. Lu Donglin's father, Lu Guang, has been a friend for many years, so it's not surprising that they are married.After all, it is better to get married with a friend's house than to let Lu Donglin find a pretty face that he doesn't know about.
"Then I'll call Lu Donglin here. Keeping the woman waiting like this is always an offense." Although Qiao Xi is not a warm person, she is very meticulous in handling business and never makes any mistakes.
He drove to Lu's house, and when he entered the house, he met Geng Qiao.
Seeing him, Geng Qiao said to him with a smile in his eyes: "Brother Qiao, did you come here directly instead of going to the hotel?"
Although Qiao Xi didn't believe what Qiao Mingsi said, when he saw Geng Qiao again at this time, he felt a little awkward in his heart, but then he made some apologies to Geng Qiao for this-he shouldn't use colored glasses to see someone who has helped her. His person—he nodded slightly to Geng Qiao: "I've been to the hotel. Aunt Bian said that Lu Donglin hasn't gone yet, so I'll come over to check on the situation."
Geng Qiao said: "He drank too much last night and vomited until six o'clock in the morning..." He raised his wrist to look at the time, "It's not ten o'clock yet, and he only slept for four hours and couldn't get up at all .”
Qiao Xi said, "I'll go see him."
While going upstairs, he looked back at Geng Qiao who was following behind him: "Aren't uncle and aunt home?"
Geng Qiao said: "Madam Lu didn't come back from America, and Uncle Lu didn't live here, so he should be at the hotel now."
Qiao Xi nodded slightly and went upstairs.
I thought that this family was really casual about the important matters of marriage.
He is really not good at having fun with people, not even his younger brother, let alone other people.
He took advantage of the Spring Festival to visit Jiang's house again. There are many Jiang's family members, and they are always lively.
