Xu Baomo wanted to tell the truth about Xu Zijing's ruthless nature several times - his father would never do anything to his mother, and conversely, his mother would do nothing to his father - but because he was not sure what to do after telling the truth Will he be beaten to death by his biological father? If he finally shuts up, he can force a smile and say dryly: "No, his mother just said that, his father...his father is actually not unreasonable." Yes!"
"Brother Shi, I have been in Cangwu County for a long time and have not had much contact with Uncle Shi and my aunt. How can I understand Uncle Shi as deeply as my aunt? Besides, as my aunt just said, when parents look after their children, they look after their husbands. Wife, it’s not the same! So I think Uncle Shi is being reasonable. Is it because Uncle Shi wronged my own son and it will naturally hurt him more, but if Uncle Shi wronged his aunt, he might be very harsh?" Sheng Suihe immediately stopped. He said, "It's better to believe that this kind of thing exists than to believe that it doesn't happen! What if Uncle Shi is going to be furious, and if Brother Shi is not here, how scared and worried should Auntie be?"
The words "Aunt said" made Xu Baomo speechless and secretly cried out: "My dear mother, didn't you have to say a few words just now?! Now all those words have been used to block us!!! "
Sheng Suihe finally came up with a killer trick, "What about Shixiong's biological mother? Shixiong, how can I deny the safety of their good peers, Buqin's mother?! That matter spread, How can I and him get along with each other?!"
Speaking of that, what should Xu Baomo do
After that, he returned to Ningwei Hou Mansion in despair. After a while, the prince, who was beaten violently by Xu Zijing and his wife, cried like a ghost and howled: "Brother Heng Shu, I lied! What's wrong with his father? His own son is so painful and his wife is so harsh. ?! Did he do it the other way around?!!!"
... In fact, at the earliest time, when he entered the mansion, he told Xu Zijing and Nanshi, who had already returned, about chasing after the Sheng family's house. Although the couple scolded him a few times: "Things that don't live up to expectations should be left alone." The family is here, but they were sent back without doing anything. They don’t know how to be courteous, and they don’t have the agility to adapt to changes at all!”
But he didn't move his legs either.
The question is no, he came by chance, just as Nan and Xu Zijing finished talking about Mingyue's series of events. At that time, he cursed his son a few words meaningfully, and the couple continued to talk about business - Xu Zijing scolded Xu Caikui angrily: "That evil! Our family has been friends with the Sheng family for many years. Did she hear all the stories she told her in the past few months?! Not to mention that the Queen Mother didn’t treat us well, even if she really angered us, Ning Wei Marquis Mansion, are our family so afraid of trouble?! When word of this happened to the army, I don’t know how many old brothers asked to poke our spines! If my parents know about it, I have to beat that bastard to death with my own legs - that thing is serious Is he the blood of the Xu family?!"
Nan originally thought Xu Caikui was outrageous that time, but when she heard the last sentence, she immediately became furious: "What do I mean?! I personally stood outside the delivery room and watched Mrs. Wen carry Caikui out. She didn't recognize the blood of my Xu family." What’s your origin?! Are you that kind of person who is carefree?!”
"He doesn't mean that!" Xu Zijing's voice suddenly dropped an octave as he explained, "Doesn't he think her character is really disappointing?"
As for whether to prevent his wife from continuing to pursue Dongliang, he quickly changed the subject, "And that bastard! He can't even see such an obvious way to sow discord. He fell into Chi Zuosi's plan without knowing it. It's so stupid to be so stupid. It’s all a shame to the Xu family!”
As expected, Nan murmured: "Sowing discord? Did I say that Chi Zuosi...?"
"The purpose of Chi Zuosi's words is to make us angry at Qiao Er!" Xu Zijing sighed. Although he was afraid of foreign affairs, he was not confused when it came to serious matters - after all, whether he had worked hard to become the Marquis - or whether he would become a marquis tomorrow. No, Xiu Muyue went to the Yamen in the evening, and Xu Caikui couldn't hold himself back and had an attack just after he came back. Otherwise, the matter would not have reached the point where it is now, "I think what is the status of the Queen Mother? If she really annoyed Qiao Er, Do you need to specifically ask the strategist around you to pass on such words?"
"When we enter the palace tomorrow, can't we rush the Queen Mother to find out about the fifteenth lady of the Meng family?"
"What did the Queen Mother do at that time? Bu Nao said a few words to Miss Fifteen in an understated way, and then she was asked to withdraw. Miss Fifteen was not only the niece of the Queen Mother, but also the most favored daughter of Duke Zheng. She was expelled from Nuan Pavilion. Afterwards, I didn’t dare to go far, so I knelt down outside the door and begged for mercy!”
"So if the Queen Mother is dissatisfied with Qiao Er, how many ways can she do to make Qiao Er lose face and not be able to stay in Chang'an City?!"
"Not to mention denying the East July Agreement and allowing Qiao Er to meet again?"
Xu Zijing sneered, "The Queen Mother is getting older, and her body has often been disobedient in recent years. Except for things that happen and a few juniors that the Queen Mother likes, the Queen Mother would not ask for permission to see her, but the Queen Mother would not allow it. Qiaoer Mingyue has just met for the first time, It’s not the Queen Mother’s fault that she has a good impression. Is it worth the Queen Mother’s time and energy to summon a mere minister’s daughter?”
After saying this, both Nanshi and Xu Baomo looked at each other in shock and remained silent for a long time.
After a long time, Nan murmured: "Then... So, not only did Queen Mother Mingyue not anger Qiao Er, but she even liked Qiao Er a little?"
She said in disbelief, "Then why did Chi Zuosi ask to say that to them, implying that the Queen Mother was angry with Qiao Er? Did Chi Zuosi misunderstand the Queen Mother's meaning?"
Xu Zijing stamped his feet and said sadly: "His good wife! Think about the Queen Mother's surname. Her surname is Meng. Did the Meng family start from her? If the King of Gaomi and the Meng family were fighting to the death in the Ming Dynasty, Queen Mother Meng Why don't you help the Meng family pull the trigger? We haven't waded through troubled waters over the years, and we have been walking on thin ice with fear! Even so, it was so dangerous to avoid being forced to take sides by both sides in the east field! "
"It's okay now, that ignorant Caikui! Why did you think you were thinking about your family? You humiliated and forced several children of the Sheng family away. The relationship between our family and the Sheng family has never been a secret. The Sheng family has very little eyesight. The elder is in Chang'an, and when he goes back to the Meng family to impeach him on the charge of "not being strict with his daughters, bullying the younger ones," he has no defense at all!"
"When the time comes, Qiu Mo will abandon his official position, and Qi Mo will join one of them!"
"Why didn't Chi Zuosi come forward in that matter?"
"Obviously, the Queen Mother is not sure whether they will fall into the trap - because if they don't blame Qiaoer, the incident will pass peacefully!"
"When the time comes, the Queen Mother scolds Chi Zuosi a few times, saying that she has taken it upon herself to misunderstand the Queen Mother's meaning, which has led to a misunderstanding. Can we argue with the Queen Mother?"
"So who told us to have an unfilial daughter in our family and fall into such a superficial scheme?!"
Nan's ears felt as if they were falling into an ice cellar. She was thinking that even if Sheng Sleeping Crane coaxed Sheng Weiqiao away, Empress Dowager Meng was still angry with Sheng Weiqiao. After July, Sheng Weiqiao would not be able to explain to the Empress Dowager, and Ningwei Hou Mansion would have to help. Asking for mercy and mediation - this can also make up for the damage caused by Xu Caikui's misunderstanding of Sheng Weiqiao. It may be possible to turn hostility into friendship and preserve the friendship between the two families for three generations.
But who knows, Queen Mother Meng was not angry at all at Sheng Weiqiao, but was actually a little interested: As Xu Zijing said, Queen Mother Meng is so old and her health is not very good. She is probably afraid of things when she is old. If it is not impressionable, Why did she spend so much time summoning this junior who she had a deep affection for
So, what was originally a good thing turned out to be self-defeating!
Nan's eyes burst into tears: "It's all his fault! He used to think that although he was not from a high family, he could handle everything at home and outside the family, and he was no worse than those ladies! Now I know that he is like that His background, his vision is not as good as that of the city government! But he also believed what Chi Zuosi said, and deliberately showed off his face to the children on the way back. He wanted Qiao Er to have a good memory, so why did Cai Kui also take the responsibility? Heart, so just after you came back, you targeted Qiao Er to drive people away?!"
"If he had been in the carriage before, he could have given that analysis to the children. Cai Kui... Cai Kui would definitely not have done that!"
"Now that things are like that, how can we explain to the parents of the Sheng family?!"
Xu Zijing was so crying that Nan's legs were shaking. Nan's always wanted to be strong. Was it because Xu Zijing joined the army and was homeless for many years? She was a woman who had to take care of her children. ; Later, she tried to be strong because her husband was becoming more and more powerful, but the lintel of her natal family was no longer with her. If she didn't be strong, let alone controlling Xu Zijing, the flowers and plants outside would definitely be under God's watch.
So she rarely cried, but she had already cried countless times tomorrow because of something Xu Caikui caused. At that time, Xu Zijing looked at her, feeling distressed and anxious, and he didn't have time to wipe her with his sleeves. While wiping, he coaxed: "Don't do that! Don't do that! Didn't the Sheng family's children just move away? Their house is not far away. Tomorrow, he will ask for leave from the Yamen, and we will go and explain the matter to them. Why don’t we just invite them back because of their extramarital affair? In the final analysis, our two families have been friends since the time of our children’s grandfathers. We are not elders, and the children of the Sheng family are not unreasonable people. I know tomorrow. If you fell into the trap because of your rudeness, how can you not give us that face?"
"I just want to think about it!" When Nan heard this, she cried even more sadly, pushed him hard, and said with some excitement, "If it's Qiao'er, then he is really willing to give face to our elders. A soft-hearted kid! But among the children in the Sheng family, it was Sheng Sleeping Crane, that kid! He wanted to say ten sentences to him tomorrow, but he was so well-founded that every sentence made him speechless. There are no words to be wrong!”
Xu Baomo, who had been drinking tea silently in Didong, suddenly felt a little bad when he heard that... Sure enough, he heard Nan continue, "He has never studied, his vision is not high, and the city is limited, so he didn't see Chi Zuosi's Those twists and turns are just fine! But after all, Bao Mo is not a serious candidate for the exam. If he has half the talent of Sheng Sleeping Crane in a scene like tomorrow, he won't mess up their mother and son. Sheng Suihe alone said that he had abandoned his armor and let the brothers and sisters leave just now. He just chased after him and was sent back with just a few words - it is simply infuriating that no one can compare with others!"
The thing was ready. Xu Zijing was relieved. He immediately slammed the table, pointed at Xu Baomo and shouted: "Okay! Just explain how this matter got to that point?! Why don't you just pick sunflowers, bastard of mine, that good-for-nothing?" Are you called the Son of Man in vain?"
As he rolled up his sleeves, he begged to move his legs - Xu Baomo thought it was simply unreasonable: I don't have the ability to coax his mother to stop crying, so why should I turn my anger on him? !
This prince is so unjustly accused! ! !
He defended while hiding: "My mother and the others just came back tomorrow, and Cai Kui had a seizure. The child didn't even have time to know the ins and outs of the matter, okay? How could he see the twists and turns? Then blame Cai Kui for asking. If she is ignorant, she is the culprit. She has nothing to do with the child! As for Brother Hengshu and the others leaving, is there nothing that can be done? Who told Caikui to shut up and be so unpleasant? If the child is changed, Brother Hengshu and the child will not be able to do anything. Let my sister suffer in the Marquis' Mansion again! If we stay, we can only do our best and obey fate. How can we blame the child for being useless? That's just not human nature at all, okay?!"
Xu Zijing felt that he had even more reason to beat him: "You bastard! You dare to talk back! If I don't beat you tomorrow, I will call you father and mother, because my surname is after me!"
Xu Baomo dodged with experience and ran around the house, never forgetting to remind him: "Dad, our surname is both Xu, we can't write two characters of Xu in one stroke!"
"He killed my heartless little thing!" After hearing this, Nan, who was wiping tears, stopped crying. He wiped his face randomly, grabbed the fly whisk by his leg, stood up and helped her husband catch his son, "I beat my son. It's only natural that I dare to hide?! I dare to provoke?! You rebelled against me!!!"
