Xiao Jing didn't expect that the captain would suddenly change his tactics, but if it was really the thunderous punch just now, his handsome face would be completely changed.
Xiao Yu was furious and ready to rush over to fight again.
Xiao Jing hugged his waist to stop his reckless actions, she said: "Brother, we heroes don't suffer from immediate losses, you can't beat the captain."
Xiao Yu clenched his hands into fists, "If I can't beat me, I want to fight him, this brat dares to insult me."
"The captain just doesn't want to be too ruthless. After all, on an occasion like today, if you come out with a swollen face, you will be criticized." Xiao Jing stood in front of him and said seriously.
"Are you sure that your elder brother will lose?"
"Brother, I just think you have to weigh the pros and cons. You have a chance to fight the captain anytime, but not in today's situation."
Xiao Yu took a deep breath and calmed down his ups and downs. He stared at the silent Shen Chengfeng, gritted his teeth and said, "Just wait for me."
After saying that, he took Xiao Jing's hand and walked towards the end of the corridor.
Xiao Jing asked in amazement, "Brother, where are you taking me?"
"A safe place." Xiao Yu persistently grabbed her hand.
"Brother—" Xiao Jing looked back at Shen Chengfeng who hadn't moved, waved her hand at him, and said with her lips: I'll come and find you in a while.
Shen Chengfeng nodded, and seemed to be in a good mood.
In the hall, the music was melodious, and the old man walked in from the entrance proudly in a luxurious dress.
Two guards took her coat.
The whole hall suddenly fell silent.
The old lady of the Shen family hadn't appeared on such an occasion for ten years, not to mention the banquets of foreigners, she didn't even bother to attend the family banquets organized by the Shen family itself.
When Mrs. Xiao saw the old man at the entrance, she also had a serious look on her face. The wind from southeast to northwest blows every day, but what kind of wind brought this guy who lives deep in the old mountain forest and is about to become an immortal today
When the old lady of the Shen family was young, she was a well-known lady in the capital, just like her name: Gu Qingcheng, the Gu family has a daughter, and the country is all over the city.
Old Mrs. Xiao stepped forward, the creases on her face almost became a line of laughter, she said: "My good sister, we haven't seen each other for ten years."
"Sister Xiao was joking too, didn't we meet once the year before last?" Mrs. Shen inspected the crowd one by one, "Where's my grandson who everyone fears?"
Mrs. Xiao winked at the people behind her, "Go to the banquet hall and prepare the refreshments that Qingcheng girls like to eat."
"I don't really like sweets in the past two years." Mrs. Shen casually walked into the banquet hall under the compliments of a group of people.
All the wives of generals and famous families rushed in, and stood around the sofa in an orderly manner, waiting for these two most admired old ladies of the older generation in the capital to praise them.
None of the descendants of the Xiao family and the Shen family are married yet, and everyone wants to please the two heads of the family.
Mrs. Shen opened the teacup, and the green tea was wafting with the fragrance of tea, "Longjing before the rain, it is quite fragrant."
"I know my sister likes this one."
"Why hasn't my grandson, who loves and offends people all the time, come here?" Mrs. Shen looked towards the gate.
"I've already sent someone to invite you. My sister came here specially to meet our third son, Shen Chengfeng?"
"I heard that he was demoted, I'm here to attack."
"I've heard about this too, but the third son did nothing wrong. It's my incompetent Xiao Jing who got him involved. If you want to punish him, punish Xiao Jing."
"Then call them all over." Mrs. Shen put down her teacup, and gazed at a lady in front of her with burning eyes, "I haven't been back for a few years, and the little girls in the capital are all looking fresh , It's really a pity, my grandson who doesn't eat oil and salt has a bad life and a bad fortune."
"Aren't the Eldest Young Master and the Second Young Master not married? My younger sister can pick and choose." Mrs. Xiao said with a smile.
Mrs. Shen snorted, "Could it be possible that Sister Xiao still treats this as a kiln, and picks two pleasing ones and sends them to my grandson? We are old and don't get involved in this matter of marriage."
"This can't be ignored. The children are full of energy and busy with business all day long. If we don't take care of it, we still think they can find it by themselves?"
"Speaking of which, doesn't Marshal Xiao Yao have a wife? Since the Xiao family has a mistress, why doesn't Sister Xiao step back like me? We are all people who are about to enter the coffin with both feet, so we should be happy."
As soon as the words fell, everyone saw Mrs. Xiao's sudden change of expression.
Mrs. Xiao put down her teacup directly, and said indifferently: "She is not qualified yet."
Mrs. Shen took a sip of tea again, but she was full of interest, "It's not up to us whether we are qualified or not, it's your son who has the final say, just like my incompetent son, who married me Mother forgot."
"Madam, the fourth son is here." The guard pushed open the door of the banquet hall.
Xiao Jing looked at the situation in front of her, a group of people were staring at her beautiful face, her heart was hanging high, what was going on
"Come here." Mrs. Xiao said coldly.
Xiao Jing walked forward hesitantly, all the famous wives and daughters were standing in this room, the originally spacious banquet hall was actually quite crowded at this moment.
Mrs. Xiao looked at Mrs. Shen who was on the opposite side of her, and she continued: "This is Marshal Shen Yitian's mother, that is, General Shen Chengfeng's grandma. Do you know why I called you here?"
Xiao Jing's heart skipped a beat, she couldn't get herself into trouble, Mrs. Tai couldn't know the relationship between herself and the captain, so the old lady of the Shen family in front of her certainly didn't know either, and it shouldn't be because of the relationship between herself and the captain that they called her here at this time. The secret of the invisible man.
Old Mrs. Shen smiled, "Sister Xiao, don't scare other people's children like this, come here and let me have a look."
Xiao Jing walked over cautiously step by step, straightened her body, and saluted: "Madam."
"This body is very petite. I must have suffered a lot in the military camp of my grandson with a slumped face all day long."
Xiao Jing couldn't figure out what the old lady was thinking, so she had no choice but to reply in a normal manner, she said: "The captain is upright and treats everyone equally, it's not considered hard work."
"Sit down and talk. If you stand like this, my neck hurts when I look up." Mrs. Shen moved her position.
The audience was dead silent.
Xiao Jing didn't dare to move, and noticed the dozens of pairs of sharp eyes behind her, she didn't dare to sit down easily.
"Could it be that I've lived in seclusion for too long recently, can I not listen to my words?" Mrs. Shen said to herself.
Xiao Jing hurriedly walked over in three steps at a time, and sat down on the sofa.
Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "Do you want some tea?"
Xiao Jing shook her head, shaking her head very hard, wishing she could break her neck and tell the old lady that she was really not thirsty.
"If you don't drink, don't drink. I'm almost dizzy from shaking like this."
Xiao Jing stopped shaking her head.
Mrs. Xiao frowned, "My good sister has a much gentler temperament after not seeing her for a few years."
"Sister Xiao is wrong. I generally look down on this child, but I really like this child. I have to praise your Xiao family. The children raised are quite attractive to me." Mrs. Shen personally clamped A piece of refreshment was handed to Xiao Jing, and she said, "Taste it."
Xiao Jing cupped it with both hands, but dared not eat it.
Mrs. Shen sighed, "I'm really old, it's fine for others to eat what I personally give, or not."
Xiao Jing hesitated for a second, and put the whole tea into her mouth without thinking, puffed her cheeks and looked at the old lady of the Shen family who had the glory of the Holy Lord.
Mrs. Shen nodded in satisfaction, "Is it delicious?"
"Ahem." Xiao Jing almost choked out internal injuries.
Mrs. Shen brought a cup of tea and handed it over, "Delicious as long as it is delicious, no matter how delicious it is, it is your Xiao family's product, eat slowly, you still want to eat here, don't make it seem like you are afraid of being snatched by others. "
Xiao Jing held her breath in her heart, unable to go up or down, as if she was choking.
Mrs. Shen looked at Mrs. Xiao who was silent, and said with a smile: "Sister Xiao, look at this fourth son in your family. I think this temperament is most like your son."
"What does my sister think he looks like? My son is a dignified marshal. He is majestic, but he is just a captain who can't lift his face."
"Sister Xiao is wrong. It took Marshal Xiao Yao for decades to get the rank of marshal. The fourth son of the family only took less than three years to become a captain. If you give him thirty years, I'm afraid You have to call him sir, too."
"Even if I give him fifty years, he won't have that ability."
Mrs. Shen picked up a green jujube, brushed it lightly with her fingertips, and said with a half-smile: "This man is like these jujubes, the ones that look ugly may be the sweetest, but the ones that look at the light are the sweetest." It’s smooth and beautiful, and it’s hard to swallow until you bite down.”
Mrs. Xiao was too lazy to continue this topic, she glanced at the figure who was swaggeringly sitting on the sofa, and the displeasure was clearly visible in her eyes.
Xiao Jing silently planned to stand up. After all, there were many noble ladies standing around, so it was an arrogance for a junior like her to sit next to an elder.
"I'm sitting and you are standing, but you want me to twist my neck and talk to you?" Mrs. Shen pressed Xiao Jing's hand directly, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "Sit obediently, and take off your gloves if I disagree with you." Why hasn't your grandson come in yet?"
"The old lady is already looking for the third master, maybe the third master is chatting somewhere." An officer stepped forward to report.
"The captain may be in the compartment on the second floor." Xiao Jing said directly.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with her words, but why her back felt cold after she finished speaking, as if some eyes were sharply falling on her thin body.
Xiao Jing twisted her neck stiffly, and the moment she turned her head, she happened to see the scorching eyes of the old lady of the Shen family staring at her undisguisedly, which made her feel faint.
Mrs. Shen smiled, "How do you know he's there?"
"Ahem." Xiao Jing glanced at the refreshments on the table guiltily, and said, "I just separated from the captain."
"You still want to eat?" Mrs. Shen once again took a piece and handed it to Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing didn't dare to refuse, she took it with both hands, "Thank you, old lady."
"Thank me for what? This is your Xiao family's own thing, but I borrowed flowers to present Buddha."
Xiao Jing drooped her neck cautiously, Mrs. Xiao Jiatai's eyes were like tens of millions of volts of lightning, if she was hit with one blow, she might lose her fragrance.
"Sister, your temperament has been much gentler recently. Those rules you set up in the Shen family are going to be invalidated?" Mrs. Xiao took a sip of tea with a displeased expression.
Mrs. Shen said: "The Shen family is the Shen family, and the Xiao family is the Xiao family. How can you use the rules of the Shen family to bring an ax to your Xiao family, not to mention that the Fourth Young Master Xiao is also a soldier of my heartless grandson. I should take good care of him anyway."
"You can go out." Mrs. Xiao no longer concealed her disgust.
Xiao Jing subconsciously prepared to stand up, but suddenly a hand grabbed her wrist like that.
Mrs. Shen also stood up, and she said: "It seems that Sister Xiao really doesn't intend to give me a three-point face. After all, I have lived in seclusion for ten years, and the metabolism of places like the imperial capital is too fast. Now, no one cares about it.”
Mrs. Xiao hurriedly stood up, and said with a smile: "What do you mean my sister, even if I ignore these people, I can't ignore my good girl."
"Then why did you drive away the person I like on purpose? Isn't this clearly demolishing my platform?" Mrs. Shen took two steps expressionlessly, "I am not a very good-tempered person. Since others don't want to See, I won't be acting on occasion."
Everyone took two steps back, not uttering a word, not daring to make a sound.
"Knock, knock, knock." The closed door was pushed open from the outside.
Shen Chengfeng glanced coldly across the group of people, and finally cast his gaze on a thin body in the middle of the crowd.
When Xiao Jing heard movement behind her, she turned her head instinctively. The retro and luxurious wooden door slowly opened. The calm expression seemed to sway slightly, and there were some subtle changes.
"My grandson who shines like gold when he first appeared on the stage is finally here." Mrs. Shen stretched out her hand towards Shen Chengfeng, "Hurry up and let grandma take a good look."
Shen Chengfeng didn't pay attention to the staring eyeballs around him, he went straight forward and saluted, "Grandma."
"Look at this body. When I saw you last year, I wasn't so healthy. The ancients never deceived me. People are refreshed on happy occasions. Look at the long-open eyebrows and eyes, which are suddenly gentler."
Shen Cheng's composure froze slightly, he looked at the old man's purposeful eyes, and then at Xiao Jing behind her who seemed to be alone without saying a word, it seemed that the answer was already obvious.
Mrs. Shen stretched out her hand and tugged at Xiao Jing who was not moving, and said with a light smile: "I am very happy with you soldier, don't mind if I chat with him."
"It's up to you to decide." Shen Chengfeng raised his eyes, and his eyes flashed past Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing felt like a lump in her throat, she didn't feel that she had the determination to keep her expression unchanged when a mountain collapsed.
"Xiao Jing, pay attention to your propriety." Mrs. Xiao said in a deep tone.
"Yes, Mrs. Tai." Xiao Jing replied.
"Calling you Mrs. Tai?" Mrs. Shen smacked her lips, "The children of the Xiao family are called elders in such a respectful way. It really is a high-ranking compound, and the rules are different."
"People who are not qualified can only call me Mrs. Tai just like outsiders." Mrs. Xiao raised her eyes and fell directly on Xiao Jing. With such a naked expression, who would fail to see what the old lady of the Xiao family was referring to? What's the meaning.
"My father once taught me to stay on top of everything. After all, no one can tell who will be the craziest in the next few years." Old Mrs. Shen walked past the crowd, and finally stood in front of Qi Minmin, "Isn't it true that I was so close at the beginning?" Just marry Marshal Xiao Yao's Miss Qi family?" As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.
At the beginning, Qi Minmin's heart belonged to Xiao Yao, which was known by the whole capital. Originally, the old lady of the Xiao family also thought that the friendship between the two families was a beautiful thing, so she thought about going to the Qi family to propose marriage, but just after the marriage proposal, Qin Ran had a big belly closed the door.
Yes, the old lady of the Xiao family gave her the loudest slap in the face in public, which caught her by surprise.
The child in her belly turned out to be his son's, and his proudest son would have a secret relationship with others when his dead wife's body was still alive, and it was even more secret.
Shame, shame to the lintel of the Xiao family, shame to the heroic soul of the Xiao family, and even more shame to her.
The marriage between Xiao's family and Qi's family just ended like this, and they married the daughter of a nouveau riche, a woman who can't hold up to the appearance.
Qi Minmin's face is also very good. Although she didn't marry Xiao Yao, but because of her cuteness and eloquence, she can be regarded as a frequent visitor of Xiao's family these years, and she has won the favor of the old lady.
"It turns out that I haven't been back for so long. The capital city is really more exciting than the last one. It's no wonder that sister Xiao doesn't like Xiao Jing, but there's nothing I can do. My grandson who only knows how to juggle knives and guns all day seems to like him. He likes it, and I, an old woman, like it too." Mrs. Shen stood in front of Xiao Jing with a smile on her face.
