Rebirth of the first courtier
Chapter 7
Father Xiao waved his hand impatiently, looking back at the calm Xiao Qi'ao, feeling a little embarrassed.The son-in-law sees his concubine crying and making noise at the gate of the yard, can he still establish the image of a strict father?
"Tell me what you want, what does it look like to cry!" Father Xiao was impatient, and naturally he couldn't hear what he said.
A trace of sadness flashed in An's eyes. Back then, she admired him and married him as a concubine despite her family's dissuasion.Except for the first two years, the master no longer had the tender care for him before, and she was no different from the other concubines.
"Master, you have to make the decision for Shu'er!" An said in a low voice, "Shu'er is usually the most polite, and she has never had anything with Qingyun... with Qingyun, how could it be... meeting……"
Father Xiao was originally impatient, but when he heard An's talking about Qingyun, his heart skipped a beat, and his face instantly turned pale.
"Okay, where is Jingshu?" Xiao Chengyu frowned, if it was what he thought, he might marry the eldest daughter as soon as possible.
The Xiao family can't afford to lose this man!
Anshi wiped her tears with her handkerchief, and said in a low voice, "In...in the courtyard where Qingyun temporarily lives..."
Father Xiao's eyes suddenly went dark, Xiao Qi'ao signaled Shuzhu to help him quickly, and he walked behind him, and said in a low voice: "Father, don't make this matter public, you need to go and see about my sister. "
Xiao's father closed his eyes, nodded after listening to Xiao Qi'ao's words, "Don't cry, come and take a look with me!"
"Yes, master." An replied in a low voice, and a group of people walked out behind Xiao Chengyu.
As soon as Xiao Chengyu left, Xiao Qi'ao looked at the people in the yard and said calmly: "Today I don't want to hear that anyone has left the house, do you understand?"
"Yes, Eldest Young Master." Everyone bowed their heads obsequiously.No one in the house knows that although the young master has a good temper, but the person who is the most unaccustomed to obedience and disobedience, if he meets the young master, he will not be able to please him!
"Shu Zhu, go and tell the housekeeper that everyone in the Xiao residence is not allowed to go out today." After Xiao Qi'ao finished speaking, he followed Father Xiao and Mrs. An to Xiao Jingshu's place. How could he miss a good show this time?
It's a pity that Hu Li's illness is not fully recovered yet, and Xiao Jingshu and Qi Qingyun are no longer in distress.
Because Qi Qingyun is a foreigner, the courtyard where he lives is in the outermost guest room.The time from Father Xiao's yard to Qi Qingyun's is neither too far nor too close. When Xiao Qi'ao got there, he could hear Xiao Jingshu and An's crying from a distance, mixed with Father Xiao's anger. The sound of cursing and Xiao's mother Qi's comforting voice.
Xiao Qi'ao hooked the corners of his mouth, making Shuzhu who was following him tremble, the young master smiled like this, and felt the hairs on his back stand on end!
Xiao Qiao walked into the yard, Shuzhu consciously stayed outside.Ordinary servants may not know what happened inside, but he obeyed the young master's arrangement to do things, and he knew everything inside clearly, so he didn't dare to run in at this time, and he wanted to die!
"Father, Shu'er... Shu'er is not there, not...Father, if you check carefully, someone must frame Shu'er, father..." Xiao Jingshu cried uncontrollably. No matter how arrogant and domineering she was usually, At this time when it is related to his future life, he is already at a loss.
Father Xiao frowned, angry welling up, before he could say anything else, Xiao Qi'ao walked in, "The sun is so bad today, sister Shu'er is probably suffering from heatstroke, so why don't you help the young lady into the house?" Li is good at self-cultivation." Xiao Qi'ao's former words were addressed to Xiao's father and the others, while the latter words were directed to the maid who was standing by.
The maidservants looked at each other, then looked at Xiao's father and Xiao's mother, hesitating whether to listen to the young master or not.
"Go and help the eldest lady into the house." Xiao's father also regained his composure at this moment. Whether it was Shu'er's fault or being framed, Shu'er and his in-laws had a physical relationship. It's a fact, it can't be publicized.
Seeing the maid who finally moved, helping Xiao Jingshu who was about to faint from crying into the room, Xiao's father sighed, "I will talk to my father-in-law about this matter, Qingyun go back first, I will accompany you tomorrow Go to Qi's house. Madam, go back too, Qiao, follow me."
"Yes, father." Xiao Qi'ao nodded, walked up to Xiao's mother and patted Xiao's mother's arm lightly, "Mother, don't worry, I know you love sister Shu'er, my father and I will not let Shu'er My son and sister have been wronged."
Mother Xiao forced a smile, "Okay..."
Xiao Qi'ao turned around and looked at An Shi, who was also out of breath from crying, and said calmly: "Aunt An, don't cry anymore, sister Shu'er and her cousin are in love, and they will kiss each other in a few days. It's a joy."
Hearing this, Anshi paused, feeling a little dazed.After what happened today, Shu'er might have to marry into Qi's family.Although she doesn't like the Qi family because of the back house, Xiao Qi's family does love Shu'er more than other concubine sons and concubine daughters. Marrying into the Qi family should not suffer!
An's heart was uneasy, looking at Xiao Qi'ao with a calm expression, she could only suppress the tears welling up, "I'm the one who was stunned, this is a good thing, but thinking that Shu'er is about to get married, I really don't want to part with it..."
Xiao Qi'ao raised the corners of her lips and said with a smile: "Aunt An loves her daughter very much, Qi'ao is going to father's place first, you can go to the room and talk more with sister Shu'er."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Qi'ao followed Xiao's father and left here.
But Mother Xiao's heart skipped a beat for no reason when she heard Xiao Qi'ao say "kissing and kissing".Looking at the back of Xiao Qi'ao leaving, Xiao's mother lowered her eyes, whether Xiao Qi'ao's words were intentional or unintentional, if it was intentional, did he know anything?
No, no, except for her and Nanny Liu beside her, she dismissed all those involved in the incident back then, and she was sure that it was impossible for Xiao Qi'ao to get in touch with any of them.
Xiao's father had a headache about Xiao Jingshu's matter. The daughter who had not left the court lived in the same room with the man, and was even found to have a physical relationship. There was almost no room for maneuver, and he could only marry her in the shortest possible time. up.
"Qi'ao, what do you think of today's incident?" Xiao's father was still a little angry. He knew that Xiao Jingshu had always been arrogant and domineering, but no matter how arrogant and domineering his daughter's family was, it was only in the back house. what happened today.
"Father, besides keeping the news locked, the most urgent task is to communicate with my grandfather's family as soon as possible. This matter cannot be delayed." Xiao Qi'ao sat under Xiao's father, and said lightly, "Besides, I see that my cousin is very concerned about Shu'er. My younger sister is also fond of her, since that's the case, there's nothing wrong with it, after all, she's married into her grandparent's family, so she won't be treated badly."
"Alright, I'll go talk to my father-in-law tomorrow and settle the matter of Shu'er and Qingyun." Father Xiao rubbed his forehead, "Don't meddle in this matter, and follow Master Li to review your homework and get ready. It's the next thing."
"Yes, father."
Xiao Qi'ao stayed with Xiao's father for a while and then left. Shu Zhu followed behind Xiao Qi'ao, happily saying: "Young master, my father is back, I want to go back and have a look."
Xiao Qi'ao narrowed his eyes, "Go, if I bring back the things I dragged your father back, I will ask your father to send them to my other courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing."
"Okay!" Shuzhu nodded, feeling very happy.Every time my father goes out, he can bring back a lot of novelties, hehe!
That night, Shuzhu brought back a bunch of things, which made Qiuxi and the others envious. They were all bought back, unlike Shuzhu, they could often go home to have a look.
Xiao Qiao looked at the letter sent by Shuzhu, Jiang Ming had already brought Li Huai to his grocery store.Every time Jiang Ming came back from going out, he would send the rare items he brought back to Xiao Qi'ao's other courtyard, and no one took Li Huai there this time.
Xiao Qi'ao burned the letter paper, thinking that he had promised Hu Li to go to the suburbs of Beijing, just in time to arrange the things he had always wanted to arrange.
In the early morning of the second day, Xiao Qi'ao accompanied Hu Li to eat breakfast, stared at him and drank the medicine, and let Hu Li mutter behind him.I went to the old lady's yard again, and when Nanny Yu saw him, she said with a happy smile: "The young master is here. The old lady woke up from her nap yesterday and knew that the young master had come, but she kept saying, please come in."
"I'm sorry to bother you, Madam." Xiao Qi'ao said with a smile.
"Qi'ao is here, come in quickly." The old lady saw Xiao Qi'ao waving for him to come over, looked at Xiao Qi'ao and said with emotion, "I heard about what happened today, you did a good job, Jingshu is not young anymore , it's time to get married."
Xiao Qi'ao knew that it would be very difficult for her to hide her actions from the old lady, especially in Xiao's mansion, Xiao Qi'ao lowered her head halfway, and said softly, "Grandmother knows, grandson has been dull all these years, thanks to grandma care, grandson..."
The old lady sighed in her heart when she heard the words, remembering that when she brought the little Xiao Qi'ao from the Qi family, because she was not taken seriously by the Qi family, the little child was silent like a child.
"Forget it, it's all in the past. Now that I understand everything, everything will be fine." The old lady patted Xiao Qi'ao's hand, "Stop talking about these things. Qi'ao is going to end this year, but are you sure?"
"Grandson has discussed it with the teacher, and the teacher also agrees that grandson will give it a try this year. Even if the grades are not good, it can be regarded as an experience." Xiao Qiao didn't say anything that he would definitely win the first prize. The old lady laughed and teased him, " That being the case, why don't you go this year and work hard for another year, how about it?"
Xiao Qi'ao laughed helplessly, "Grandma, don't make fun of your grandson."
Nanny Yu said with a smile as she hammered the old lady's shoulders: "The old lady said before that if the eldest young master ends up in the competition, he must be in the top three. Why did he change his mind now?"
The old lady said angrily: "Well, you bastard, you actually arranged for me!"
Mammy Yu pretended to be terrified and begged for mercy, and the old lady couldn't help laughing after a while, "I'm afraid of you, and I'm not afraid that Qiao will laugh at you."
Xiao Qi'ao knew that Nanny Yu had been with the old lady since she was a child, so she just smiled and didn't speak to her.Nanny Yu was also a well-known person in Xianshan Island back then, and many people asked to marry her, but she still followed her grandmother to Xiao's residence.
"Grandmother, grandson has something else to ask grandma to help."
The old lady smiled and said, "Tell me, what is it that I, the old lady, need to help with?"
"Grandma may have someone who can use it," Xiao Qiao said after a pause, "Grandson wants to borrow two people from grandma."
The old lady didn't ask carefully, she just nodded her head, "When you grow up, you should have a few people you can use. If you borrow someone, grandma will find a few people to send them to you in two days."
"Thank you grandma!"
"Tell me what you want, what does it look like to cry!" Father Xiao was impatient, and naturally he couldn't hear what he said.
A trace of sadness flashed in An's eyes. Back then, she admired him and married him as a concubine despite her family's dissuasion.Except for the first two years, the master no longer had the tender care for him before, and she was no different from the other concubines.
