After Wang Lu's matter was resolved, he reported some trivial matters to Emperor Huiming, and Xiao Qi'ao had nothing to do, so Xiao Qi'ao went back to Xiao's mansion first.

As soon as Xiao Qi'ao went back, she saw Qiu Xi standing at the door looking around with an anxious face, "What are you doing at the gate of the courtyard?"

Seeing Xiao Qi'ao heaved a sigh of relief, Qiu Xi hurriedly saluted, and said like crackling firecrackers: "Eldest young master, you are back, the young master was invited by his wife as soon as he came back, who I don't let you follow, and I don't know what you want the young master to do?"

"Invited away by Madam?" Xiao Qi'ao squinted his eyes, turned around and walked quickly to Xiao's mother.

The tears that Qiu Xi had been holding back seemed about to flow down, she quickly pulled out the handkerchief and wiped it off, "Eldest young master, the young master just came back, and he was invited away by the madam just like that, and what he said was unclear. At that time When a few strong servants took the young master away forcefully, their strength was not light at all. As I watched, the young master was..."

Xia Yang who came from not far away hurriedly pulled Qiu Xi's clothes, and signaled Qiu Xi to stop talking, and after saluting, he told Xiao Qi'ao about the matter in detail.

Xiao Qi'ao kept moving his feet, listening to Xia Yang's words.

At that time, after Shuzhu and a few followers sent Hu Li back, they each went to work on their own affairs. As soon as Hu Li came back, he went straight to find Qiuxi and Xia Yang, saying that he brought back a lot of strange things and wanted to give them to him. Everyone in the house gets one point.

Everyone was also very happy, after all, most of the servants in the mansion had never traveled far, and there were naturally many things in Jiangnan Mansion that they had never seen before.

The servants in the mansion who heard the news quickly finished their tasks and gathered in Xiao Qi'ao's yard.Hu Li asked Qiuxi, Xia Yang and Shuzhu to help him divide the things he brought back one by one. Although everyone got different things, everyone was very satisfied. After all, not every master will give the things to his servants when he goes out. Came back with a letter.

Hu Li looked at the people who left happily, and he was also very happy. At this time, Shuzhu was going to pick up Xiao Qi'ao at the gate of the palace.Hu Li was going to take Qiuxi to the old lady's yard by himself, and asked Xia Yang to help deliver other things to Xiao's father and Xiao's mother.

Not long after Shuzhu left, a group of people rushed into the yard, and the leading nun was about to take Hu Li away with a serious face.

Hu Li looked blankly at the leading nanny, he was a little familiar with this nanny, she seemed to be from Mother Xiao's yard, and of course it wasn't the Nanny Liu who had been by Mother Xiao's side all the time.

"Mother knows, why did Madam ask me to come over?" Hu Li asked suspiciously, still holding the warm bracelet prepared for the old Madam.

The nanny still had a gloomy expression on her face, and her words were not very polite, "Young master, you should go with me honestly. It would be bad if Madam waited too long."

Hu Li turned around and asked Qiu Xi to wait for him here, and asked Xia Yang to go there with the things prepared for Xiao's mother, but the people brought by Mammy blocked the door.

"Young master, Madam only invites you, please." Nanny said, motioning for a few servants to drag Hu Li away.

Hu Li was confident that he would not be hurt. Although he felt Xiao's mother's behavior was very strange, he still followed.And Xia Yang and Qiu Xi looked at Hu Li who was taken away worriedly. After all, Xia Yang was more stable than Qiu Xi, "You wait here and see when the young master comes back. If the young master comes back, let the young master come back." Hurry up to Madam to see what's going on? I'm afraid the young master will suffer some crimes this time..."

"What about you?" Qiu Xi was already in a panic, Xia Yang gritted his teeth, "I'm going to see the old lady, I have to find a way."

As soon as Xia Yang left, Qiu Xi became even more anxious, until Xiao Qi'ao came back to feel better.

Xiao Qi'ao narrowed his eyes after hearing Xia Yang's words.He probably guessed the reason for Xiao's mother's attack this time, but he didn't expect Xiao's mother to turn her anger on Hu Li and force Hu Li to go there while still in Xiao's mansion.

A few days ago, when he was about to return to the imperial city, Xia Yi said that the Gu worm that fell on Xiao Jingshu's body last year broke out, and Xiao Jingshu would definitely have a miscarriage in those two days.

Xiao Jingshu is simply Mother Xiao's greatest weakness. Xiao Qi'ao has never been able to figure out why Mother Xiao changed sons back then.Even if An's gave birth to him, he was just a concubine's eldest son. Could it be that Mother Xiao knew at that time that she could only give birth to Xiao Jingshu's child?

Turning her own child into a concubine's eldest daughter, and someone else's child into a concubine's eldest son, in the final analysis, Xiao's mother was still selfish.If she wanted to hold on to her status and face as Mrs. Xiao, she couldn't let the eldest son appear in Xiao's residence.

Xiao Qi'ao sneered, this time Xiao Jingshu's miscarriage would definitely make Xiao Jingshu's life in Qi Mansion difficult, not to mention that Xiao Jingshu would not be able to give birth to this child even if she wanted to, after all, she was not pregnant at all.

Back then she was found to be pregnant, but it was because Xia Yi planted a Gu worm on her.This kind of Gu insect is called child killing Gu, because the place where this kind of Gu insect appeared in the past was on pregnant women, and once this kind of Gu insect appeared, pregnant women would definitely not be able to give birth to children, so it was called child killing Gu.

But this kind of Gu worm will never live on real pregnant women, those so-called pregnant women just have the reaction that pregnant women will have because of this kind of Gu worm.Discomfort, and the gradual enlargement of the belly is an illusion.

Qiu Xi and Xia Yang, who were following Xiao Qi'ao, lowered their heads at the same time when they heard Xiao Qi'ao's sneer, the less they knew about the affairs between the masters, the better.Although they could all feel the gradual estrangement between the young master and his wife, even when the young master mentioned his wife, he no longer had the respect and love he used to have.

When Xiao Qi'ao arrived at Xiao's mother's yard, the servant at the door hurriedly stopped him, "Young master please be safe, young master, Madam is interrogating the murderer, why don't you come back later?"

For the first time in front of outsiders, Xiao Qi'ao showed a gloomy expression. His narrow eyes looked at the servant coldly, and he chuckled, "Coincidentally, I just wanted to see what the madam's interrogation is. Get lost!"

The little servant was startled with fright, "Deng Deng Deng" stepped back a few steps, and after Xiao Qi'ao walked in, he left a light sentence, "This man has bumped into me, send him out."

"Yes, young master." Shu Zhu, who followed all the way, didn't dare to speak, only responded now, and hurriedly beckoned for the followers behind to escort the man, gagged and sent him out.

Before entering the main room, I heard Hu Li's cries for help from inside. Xiao Qi'ao's eyes became even colder. Seeing Xiao Qi'ao's expression, the gatekeeper woman didn't dare to make a sound, and watched helplessly. Xiao Qi'ao pushed open the door and walked in.

It wasn't until Xiao Qi'ao and his party all went in that the mother-in-law wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. It was the first time she had seen the young master like this...it was terrifying!

Xiao Qi'ao didn't expect that what he saw when he came in was this scene, even Qiu Xi and Xia Yang who followed in were stunned.

I saw Hu Li squatting on the beam of the house, a few maidservants were below holding things to beat Hu Li down, and a stronger nanny was stepping on the table and chairs to get up.While Hu Li was dodging the attacks of all kinds of things below, he screamed heart-piercingly for help.

Seeing Xiao Qi'ao coming in, Hu Li pouted in aggrieved moment, "Brother Xiao, you're here!"

Xiao Qi'ao's face was gloomy, Xiao's mother panicked for a moment when she saw Xiao Qi'ao coming in, but she immediately calmed down.

"Qi'ao is here, just in time, mother will tell you." Mother Xiao sat on the head and looked calm, but her hands were still trembling.She knew that Xiao Qi'ao was no longer the Xiao Qi'ao who could only rely on her. He became an official, and his relationship with her was gradually estranged. She wondered if Xiao Qi'ao knew what happened back then, but he And he has nothing to do with that bitch Anshi.

Xiao Qi'ao looked at Hu Li who was still squatting pitifully on the beam, walked under him, stretched out his hand, "Come down, what does it look like up there."

Hu Li aggrievedly pointed to the group of people below, "Brother Xiao, I didn't want to come up, it was them..."

Xiao Qi'ao naturally knew that he didn't go up by himself, his face softened a little, and he still stretched out his hand to follow him, "Come down, it's okay."

Hu Li aggrieved and jumped off the beam, and subconsciously jumped into Xiao Qi'ao's arms. Xiao Qi'ao pinched Hu Li's waist and whispered in his ear: "I'll deal with you when I go back... ..."

Hu Li looked at Xiao Qi'ao inexplicably, and felt even more aggrieved now, it was obviously not his fault, why should he be punished! ?

Seeing Xiao Qi'ao ignoring her completely, Xiao's mother went to call Hu Li off the beam, her expression became ugly.Although she feels that these years have been very hard, her child is not around, she can only be a concubine daughter, and she has to help a bitch raise her son, and now her daughter is married to her natal nephew, everything is simply not going her way.But she has been the head of the house in the Xiao Mansion all these years, and she has never been so neglected.

Xiao Qi'ao took Hu Li and walked in front of Xiao's mother. Because Hu Li was not hurt, his expression softened and he became much calmer, "I don't know what Xiao Li did to make you force him to the beam. You may as well Tell Qiao, Qiao will help you teach him a lesson."

Hu Li pursed his lips, the grievance in his heart was almost like a river, it was obviously not his fault.He was called over for no reason, and when he was called, he was asked to confess, saying that he had killed a person, and God knew he was a demon, not a demon.

Xiao Qi'ao held Hu Li's arm tightly, and looked at Xiao's mother's ugly face, "Since mother doesn't want to say anything, Qi'ao doesn't force it, don't worry, I will definitely teach him a good lesson when I go back, so that he won't dare to go to bed again." The beams are gone."

Xiao's mother was so angry that she felt distressed. She looked at Xiao Qi'ao, knowing that today's matter could not be continued, so she could only wave her hand weakly, "Go back, don't let him cause trouble again, or I won't do it again." Let him go so easily, he must be taught a lesson, so that he knows the rules."

"What mother said is true, but Xiao Li has a lively temper. If you feel upset, I'll let him follow grandma." Xiao Qi'ao didn't care about Xiao's mother's threat, and this time, Hu Li really took it all implicated.

Xiao's mother was even more uncomfortable, seeing Xiao Qi'ao about to leave with Hu Li, she suddenly asked: "Where did the beauty pill he gave to Shu'er come from?"

Xiao Qi'ao suddenly realized, so it turned out that they thought that Xiao Jingshu's miscarriage was caused by Hu Li's Nourishing Pill.

"Does mother want a bottle too?" Xiao Qi'ao turned around and said with a smile, "That's not easy, that beauty pill was refined by an expert, and now I can't find where that person is."

"No, let's go."
