In the end, it was Murong Xiude who broke the silence, "Xiao Qi, serve tea."
Xiao Qi, who had been nervously staying outside, quickly turned around to serve tea after hearing this order.
The last time Murong Nanshan's arrival in the middle of the night was enough to make him vigilant, come again today
For Murong Xiude who is about to become her brother-in-law, Xiao Qi is very concerned about the safety.
In the kitchen, the dumb woman that Murong Xiude picked up outside was ordered to make hot water, and then gesticulated for him to take it away.
"It's better to be the dumb woman. In this courtyard, except for that annoying guy who has been chasing after the young lady, it is me and the dumb woman who look the most pleasing to the eye."
Xiao Qi muttered to himself, then served the tea. Those two people who had always been at odds were sitting cross-legged opposite each other at this rare moment, drinking tea.
"In your courtyard, the furnishings in the house are too deserted."
Frowning, Murong Nanshan looked at all the decorations in this room, it didn't look like their Murong Mansion's style.
The latter tapped lightly on the table and responded casually, "It's okay."
This time, Murong Nanshan had nothing to say.
After a while, he glanced at Xiao Qi again, "There are too few people."
"Noisy." Murong Xiude's style of solving problems with a single word made Murong Nanshan frown again.
"Can't you say a few more words?"
The latter did not give him a side look this time, but half closed his eyes, in Mu Xiang, he seemed to be thinking, and at the same time, he seemed to be accompanying him. Such a calm son made Murong Nanshan feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
Finally, he let out a long sigh.
"I have to say, you've really grown up. It's no longer the toddler who eagerly wanted me to come and see you."
Murong Xiude's eyes were still half-closed, even Xiao Qi on one side had to admire that such an old master's behavior could only be done by his young master. It's really impossible for ordinary people to do it. However, if the young master is with those outstanding masters, if he doesn't have a bit of self-cultivation, it will be impossible to justify it.
"Master Hou, are you here to tell me about the past?"
Murong Xiude asked indifferently, and Murong Nanshan was so blocked that he almost walked away.
He glared at him somewhat viciously, but finally, he smiled dejectedly. "That's right, you have a reason to treat me like this. I didn't pay you anything before, and now you don't have to pay me anything back. But there is one thing you can't change, and that is the fact that I am your father. This is something I cannot change."
Murong Xiude didn't move his eyes, he just sipped his tea slowly. "Xiaoqi, this is a new tea bar, and the taste is quite light."
Xiao Qi didn't expect that his young master would still be interested in tasting tea at the moment, so he really didn't pick it up, and it didn't matter if he didn't pick it up. He hummed lightly, and then hid in the dark.
"In the future, you should develop as you are now. If it is effective and worthy of my support, I, Murong Nanshan, will not let you down. On the other hand, if you are a useless person, there is no need to raise a useless son in my house."
After speaking, Murong Nanshan got up and left.
Xiao Qi still raised a flattering smile, played the part that a slave should do, sent the man outside the gate of the courtyard, closed the gate and turned around.
"My lord, what does this person mean? What does it mean to be the same as now? Didn't he show any sign when he came to see you? Why can't I understand, what does it mean?"
"Young master, what does this person think? He doesn't care about such an excellent young master like you, and insists on supporting the mud that can't support the wall. I really think he is the most stupid existence, why... "
Xiao Qi wanted to continue talking, but received Murong Xiude's indifferent eyes. Just this glance made Xiao Qi shut up.
"Hey, I just think it's a bit incomprehensible to be so far away."
Shouldn't a normal person choose someone as outstanding as the young master as his successor? But why is the marquis still unwilling to have him. Obviously he is very good.
"What he wants is an heir who listens to him and does what he wants, not an existence he can't control. Xiaoqi, there are some things that you need to think about."
Finally, Murong Xiude cleared up the doubts for poor Xiaoqi.
"Ah, you mean to say that the object he wants to support is the object he wants to control?"
Only then did Xiao Qi suddenly come to this.
Murong Xiude sneered. "What do you think?"
Xiao Qi was angry, "Then this is just looking for a puppet to support him. To put it bluntly, he is still reluctant to let go of his power and give up all the honor of the Marquis. So this is why the mansion has been unwilling to establish a son for a long time. Is the reason?"
"Isn't this family going to make a decision to establish a son?"
Murong Xiude shook his head, it was really tiring to talk to Xiao Qi about this.
Getting up, he went to Misty Rain Hut.
"Let's go to the hut to eat."
As soon as he heard that he was going to eat at Miss Sister's place, Xiaoqi was willing to do so. Although the food made by the dumb woman is not unpalatable. However, it is a bit worse than Miss Sister's, and it is even worse in visual beauty. Miss Sister cooks not only to be delicious, but also to look good. This is the most pleasing thing to eat.
In Misty Rain Hut, Murong Xiude is still growing vegetables.
Murong Xiude helped her carry the water bottle, "Wan'er, you don't like to grow flowers recently, you only like to grow vegetables. Fortunately, my yard is big enough. Otherwise, these vegetable gardens alone would be enough for me to have a headache." .”
"Well, I'm afraid, your yard may not be safe."
Murong Xiude was stunned, and then his face changed slightly, "No, Princess Chaoyang is only a princess who has been rewarded by the emperor, if she really has any relationship with the royal family, it is still a little far away. "
Chen Xiangwan smiled slightly and didn't speak much.
The owner of Chaoyang County is a bit outrageous, and the news has already spread throughout the capital. With her style, I am afraid that after marrying Murong Nanshan, she will definitely fight for the Jiaochi Garden. In the eyes of others, this is an ominous place. However, in the eyes of a person like her who shows off everywhere and wants to put on airs, the courtyard next to her is in line with her demeanor. However, after years of Murong Xiude's care of Jiaochi Garden, it really looks much better.
As the mistress, the courtyard she lives in is not as good-looking as her nominal son-in-law. With the style and temperament of Princess Chaoyang, I'm afraid this courtyard will become the courtyard she first fell in love with.
This point, just think about it a little bit, it will be clear.
"By the way, Lord Hou will come to see you. This is not a small improvement."
As early as after entering the door, Xiao Qi told everything about Murong Nanshan's coming in today. However, what made Xiaoqi depressed was that the young lady was just like the young master, she just smiled lightly and didn't express her own opinion on it. Now when she heard about Murong Nanshan going to Jiaochi Garden again, Xiao Qi listened with sharp ears.
As long as these two people are around, he always feels powerless that he can't penetrate between them.
