But these people all agreed with Xu Tong's words: "How could the eldest son of the Sheng family not beat his son? This is impossible!"
"That's right! In the past, the old master of the Sheng family never made any sense to his son. Instead, he would just roll up his sleeves and start beating him!"
"Isn't it?! Our old Marquis seemed to want to be reasonable at first, but then he saw that people like the old lady of the Sheng family who had gone to school taught their children in this way, and felt that it was right to follow suit!"
"The eldest master of the Sheng family is the eldest son of the first wife who is most valued and favored by the old master Sheng. When he was a child, he was fond of playing. Why didn't the old master use fists and kicks? At most, he would be gentler than when he beat the second and third masters of the Sheng family. !”
"The so-called family origins, since this is how Mr. Sheng teaches his sons, the eldest master of the Sheng family must also discipline his children in this way! Hey, let me tell you, why do Mr. Sheng and Miss Sheng look so gentle and quiet? They must be so. They have been beaten too many times, isn’t this a violation of the rules? Like our prince and the marquis, they both said to wait for him outside, but they actually restrained the maid and ran away. They didn’t forget to take Xinruan with them when they left! Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk , it’s a good thing that the housekeeper was considerate of the old Xu family and took the lead in taking on this matter, otherwise the prince would have been taken away just now. You go to see Madam Marquis. Madam Marquis is raging, maybe you will really be beaten today. At least it’s here!”
When Xu Baomo heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore and vomited out a mouthful of blood: These bastards didn't want to say that Sheng Suihe must have been beaten by Sheng Lanci, but they actually said that Sheng Weiqiao was beaten out when he looked at Si Wen Anjing. of!
First of all, Sheng Weiqiao is basically a tigress of the Sheng family. She just looks gentle and quiet, but she is actually not gentle or quiet at all, okay? !
If he hadn't managed to end the relationship with the tigress through his wise and valiant approach, the Manhou Mansion would have been chasing him to beat up not only Xu Zijing and his wife, but also another tigress!
Secondly, Sheng Lanci and his wife basically raised this daughter as their ancestor, otherwise they wouldn't have raised a tigress, and why would they beat her? It would be nice if she didn't hit Sheng Lanci and his wife!
Third, the maid simply hit the wall on her own, and it has nothing to do with him, okay? !
If the maid had not reacted so violently, he would not have thought of escaping at that time. He had planned to put it on and go find Xu Zijing to receive his punishment!
Speaking of which, he was unjust!
As a talented, young and rich, handsome, charming, well-informed, eloquent, civil and military son, he has been in Chang'an for so long, but he only got a little maid to make love to me in the room, and he was treated like this. Do you always feel like you are a fake prince? !
Of course, what he wants to say most at this moment is:
How blind are these people? !
So now, even though Xu Tong and others swear that Xu Zijing and his wife have calmed down, and Xu Baomo goes to plead guilty, safety can absolutely be guaranteed... How can Xu Baomo believe it
The poor prince even took advantage of their unpreparedness and hugged the leg of the table, refusing to let go. He shouted miserably: "I don't want to go to the back hall, please let me go!!!"
However, Xu Tong and the others said: "Sir, please stop making trouble. Madam Marquis is already asking you. If you arrive late, Madam Marquis may be impatient, and the anger that has just subsided will rise again! Then the anger will rise again!" Isn’t it self-defeating?”
Seeing that Xu Baomo still refused to let go, several people went up to break him off. However, because Xu Baomo regarded hugging the table legs as the last straw, he was so exhausted that he was afraid of getting hurt. She held his hand, but did not dare to use force, so she had no choice but to report to Xu Tong: "The prince refuses to let go, and there is nothing we can do!"
After hearing this, Xu Baomo breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he was finally saved!
As a result, Xu Tong said pitifully: "Then what should we do? In order to prevent the Marquis and his wife from getting angry again, we can only grab the prince's feet and drag him over with the table! Fortunately today It’s cold, the prince is wearing a lot of clothes, and there’s a lot of snow on the road outside. I think dragging him along this way won’t hurt the prince!”
When Xu Baomo heard this, his eyes suddenly darkened!
But others immediately praised him: "This is a good idea! The butler has a way! After all, the butler really cares about the prince!"
Such an inhumane old servant made Xu Baomo faint from anger because of his sincerity!
… Let’s not talk about it here, but Xu Zijing and his wife, who were waiting in the back hall for a while, suddenly remembered: “Dad is coming to Chang’an... Should I tell Qiao Er and the others as soon as possible?”
In this way, it happened that Chen Sha rushed to the Sheng family house to report the news.
Sheng Suihe and Sheng Weiqiao listened to Chensha's description of Xu Baomo's miserable experience on this day. Of course, this was a version excluding details such as Xu Zijing and his wife's private conversation and Xu Baomo's play with the maid, which were not suitable for the Sheng family to know. It is only said that Xu Baomo was caught and beaten because he refused to be punished after talking back to Xu Zijing. When they looked at each other, they couldn't help but sigh: This man... dares not to seek death anymore? !
However, neither Sheng Suihe nor Sheng Weiqiao focused their main attention on Xu Baomo, no matter how miserable Xu Baomo was. The two of them were most concerned about Mr. Xu, who had already set off: "Lao Hou I'm getting older, and it's so cold now. It's approaching the end of the year, and there aren't many pedestrians or shops on the road. Many inns may have been closed for the New Year, and the seawater and rivers in the north will probably be frozen! It's nice to be home for a thousand days, It’s difficult to go out, and it’s even more inconvenient to travel long distances now!”
Sheng Suihe laid the groundwork and asked directly what he was most concerned about, "Can you think of a way to persuade the old Marquis to go back? It really doesn't work. Spring will start next year and the weather will be warm. It would be good for the old man to go north slowly. !”
Sheng Weiqiao also said: "If the old Marquis moved out for us, there is no need! After all, what Miss Caikui did at that time was humane. Both uncle and aunt have taken great care of us these days. If the old marquis went through this hard work for this, we would be embarrassed to face our elders!"
When Chensha heard this, she smiled bitterly and said to herself that my wife called you "He'er" and "Qiao'er", but you politely called our young lady "Miss Caikui". Based on this alone, the lady who had been there early in the morning The old marquis who likes you to be my Xu family tomb wife, can't you come over personally to turn the tide? !
But it was difficult for her to say these words, so she only smiled and said: "You two are worried about the old Marquis coming to Chang'an in person. Our Marquis and Madam also have the same thoughts, so we have already sent people to go south quickly, planning to In order to meet the old Marquis, they asked him to return to Cangwu County, or find a comfortable place to celebrate the New Year. But you two also know that our old Marquis has always had an idea. Can the people sent there be persuaded? The Marquis and his wife are unsure whether they have to live in his old man's home!"
This meeting sent Chensha here, in addition to reporting the news, the main reason is, "When the old Marquis comes to Chang'an, if there is any blame, the Marquis and Madam will ask you two to help and mediate!"
"This is what it should be!" Sheng Weiqiao said hurriedly without waiting for Sheng Suihe's answer, "We will write a letter to our family soon to see if we can ask my grandfather to come forward and send a message to persuade the old marquis!"
Chensha knew that the only thing Mr. Xu could listen to when he was so angry was probably Mr. Sheng's words. Hearing this, he was overjoyed and quickly saluted and thanked him.
At this time, Sheng Weiqiao had time to ask Xu Baomo a few words: "How is Brother Xu Shi? Is he okay? Although Uncle Shi and Auntie are eager for their son to succeed, the body and bones of Brother Xu Shi are also very important. Uncle Shi and Auntie are doing everything they can to help the family. It’s time to take it easy!”
Then he turned to Sheng Suihe and said, "I remember that there are a lot of bird's nests in our luggage. How many boxes will we pack out later for Chensha to take back to Brother Xu Shi to replenish his body?"
I know that the Xu family is very evil!
Sheng Suihe snorted in his heart, isn't it that he started pretending to be pitiful after he was beaten to death? His face was calm: "There are also some other nourishing medicinal materials. Let Sheng Xiang open the warehouse to look for them later and pick some for Brother Shi!"
He overcooked the most delicious ones and lay on the bed for a few more days, unable to make any more mistakes to attract the attention of the good girl!
He was secretly jealous, and Chensha was actually very disappointed, thinking to herself: "Although Miss Sheng San said she cared about the prince, she only planned to send something to him, and had no intention of going to the Hou Mansion to visit the prince in person. She even went to the Hou Mansion to see the prince. I have no intention of comforting my wife - well, it was really in vain that I just described the tragic situation of the prince who has been here for so long!"
As for Xu Tong's promise to Xu Baomo that he would not spread the news about his beating
Is that what Xu Tong promised her to do with Chensha
Besides, Xu Tong is getting older, and Xu Baomo calls him an "old guy" in private. The so-called "you get more forgetful when you get older." As this person gets older, he will inevitably lose track of things. It's normal for him to forget occasionally!
Therefore, Chensha doesn't feel that there is anything wrong in describing his eldest son as a pitiful person. He only feels that his eldest son is a failure. She has worked so hard for him, but the effect is so poor!
"When I get back, I'll try to persuade Madam. Next time, should I say that Madam is so angry that she can't even lie down?" After the failure, Chensha summed up her experience, "Maybe Miss Sheng San will go to the Hou Mansion to visit her instead?"
In addition to informing the Sheng family brothers and sisters, Mr. Xu Laohou, during her trip, she also suffered misfortune on behalf of Xu Baomo.
At this moment, two things have been done. Although the latter one was a failure, there is no reason to stay any longer. I chatted a few more words with the Sheng brothers and sisters, then stopped talking and stood up to leave.
Because it was getting late and curfew was about to come, Sheng Weiqiao didn't say anything to persuade her to stay, and ordered Lu Jin to send her out.
After Chensha left the door, Sheng Weiqiao asked Sheng Suihe with a sad face: "We have a lot of things to do here. Now Mr. Xu will also come to Chang'an. I don't know if Mr. Xu will come to Chang'an by then. Are there any regulations that will embarrass us? Brother, we have to write to my grandfather as soon as possible and ask him to persuade Mr. Xu to stop him at all costs, right? If that doesn’t work, we might as well ask him to come back after spring!"
Sheng Suihe felt happy when he heard this. After listening to Sheng Weiqiao's words, he thought that the girl objected to Mr. Xu coming to Chang'an purely out of concern for Mr. Xu, and took the initiative to ask Mr. Sheng for help. Yes, who knew that not only herself, but also this girl was also stalked by Mr. Xu
As a result, Sheng Weiqiao's next sentence made his smile freeze: "Anyway, I will go back after the Spring Festival. When the old Marquis comes to Chang'an again, why does it have to be my brother and you to take over the battle? It's none of my business!"
