After returning to Qingfeng Residence and checking the homework of a few maids such as Red Calyx Qingluan, Su Qi went back to his room and began to read a book in his hand. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

She has read a lot of enlightenment books, and now she reads more history books and military books. At first, she struggled to read, some obscure words, and profound words and sentences were difficult for her to recognize and understand, but fortunately, she was willing to learn and ask, and with Chu Ning, a talented female gentleman, she can not only read most of the content of the book, but also learn a lot from it.

Chu Ning said when she first taught her to learn Chinese characters that she did not agree with the saying that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, and a woman can not have a worldly appearance or a prominent family background, but she must not lack intelligence. The more women are, the more they should pay attention to cultivating and improving themselves, whether it is talent or ability, it is best to have enough skills to support themselves, so that they can not only rely on men to live, in order to truly become the master of their own life, and get closer to what they want.

Such remarks, whether they are placed in Shu or some foreign countries, can be regarded as a great rebellious remark. Su Qi also thought so in her heart, but even she was surprised that she actually believed in this remark that might be very rebellious in the eyes of the world.

As for why he believed it, and why he forced himself to study diligently in this direction, this matter was not within the scope of Su Qi's thoughts. Now she just wants to quickly clear the stumbling block on the road ahead that is malicious to her, and she can quickly devote all her energy to her studies.

Because of his scruples about Su Qingyuan, Su Qi didn't make any moves for a few days. It's just that Su Qi didn't expect that her opponent couldn't help but move.

Early in the morning, the sky was much darker than before, and a cool breeze blew by, blowing coldly.

When the subordinates from Su Qingyuan's side came to Qingfeng Residence to invite him to Su Qingyuan's residence, Su Qi had a bad premonition in his heart. When she saw the pale-faced Xu Lian, the complicated expression of Jiang's mother, and an unkempt beggar kneeling on the ground, she became more and more sure of what she had in mind.

Looking at this situation, it should be that Xu Lian found out that she had bribed the beggar to go to the door of the Su Mansion to deliberately spread unfavorable remarks against her, and deliberately took someone to Su Qingyuan, so that he could make a deal about this matter! This is not surprising, there is no impermeable wall in the world, although she told Cuiluo Hongcao to be cautious in her actions, but Xu Lian is not a fool in the end, and it is only a matter of time before she finds out that she is the mastermind behind everything.

It's just that she didn't plan to give Xu Lian a chance to investigate the truth. Scaring Xu Lian is just the first step in her plan, and the next thing she has to do is to do something about Xu Lian's food, clothing, housing and transportation, so that she can no longer be arrogant. But because of her scruples about Su Qingyuan, her next plan was taken advantage of by Xu Lian before it could be implemented.

"Xiao Qi has seen his father and mother, and his father and mother are fine. Su Qi respectfully saluted the two, and the rules and actions taught people not to find a trace of inappropriateness.

These days, Chu Ning has also taught her a lot of rules and etiquette, and she will practice it whenever she has the opportunity, although it has not yet reached the realm of being amazing, but it is enough to compare many young ladies.

Su Qingyuan uncharacteristically did not respond out of voice, but let Su Qiyi, who bent his knees slightly and maintained his salute motionless, did not move, did not move, and did not know how to move.

"Why should Xiao Qi be like this, you can still do such a thoughtful courtesy to my stepmother, which really makes me feel ashamed. The first to speak was Xu Lian, her voice was not as soft and beautiful as before, but a little weak, which made her eyes blank, pale, and an exaggerated autumn fragrance on her forehead.

What a weak look!

Su Qi couldn't help but roll her eyes silently in her heart, if she hadn't seen a glance at the sun half-hidden in the clouds this morning, she really had to suspect that the sun was coming out of the west today.

She thought to herself that with the memories of her upper and lower lives, she had a thorough understanding of Xu Lian's temperament, and according to her impression, it was impossible for Xu Lian to say such words in front of Su Qingyuan that would damage her pure and flawless temperament like a lotus, but she was even more sure that she had heard correctly.

It wasn't until Su Qi's knees trembled slightly and his body began to shake that Su Qingyuan opened his mouth with a blank face: "Okay." ”

Su Qi's sharp eyes saw the smile flashing at the corner of Xu Lian's mouth, and at the same time, he also had some plans in his heart. Xu Lian not only has human evidence, but also such a 'weak' body as physical evidence, these two things are enough for her to denounce in front of Su Qingyuan that she deliberately designed her stepmother and bought off the beggar's spreading rumors, causing her stepmother to faint in fright.

Merely...... Today, she is afraid that she will come on the occasion and return disappointed. Su Qi lowered his eyes, and took away a bit of the brilliance in his eyes.

Fortunately, he had already taken precautions and spent a lot of money to buy off the beggar's side, and at that time, they could all testify that they had seen a maid in Xu Lian's courtyard have had private contact with this beggar, and then this so-called human witness will become a help for him to identify Xu Lian.

Su Qi couldn't help but take a long breath in her heart, if she really let Xu Lian pinch her handle so easily and take this opportunity to deal with herself, she would not have the shame to admit that she was the one who lived an extra life!

"Xiao Qi, you haven't grown up by your father's side since you were a child, you owe a lot to your father, and you have always thought of ways to compensate you since you returned home, but this time, you are really disappointed by your father!"

Although your mother can't bear to punish you, there are family rules, and since you make a mistake, you can't go unpunished, and the family law must be followed. Don't blame your mother for being strict with you, knowing your mistakes can improve a lot, you are still young, as long as you can correct your mistakes in time, you will definitely be able to cultivate a good character. Xu Lian said quickly, with just the right amount of pity and forbearance in her beautiful eyes, as well as a hint of fleeting pride.

Looking at Su Qingyuan's appearance and Xu Lian's hypocritical expression on the side, Su Qiyi did not defend himself for a while.

She is not in a hurry, she might as well let Xu Lian say a few more words, so that her complexion will be more 'exciting' when she is slapped in the face.

"Although you are still young, but if you make a mistake, you will make a mistake, if you are not punished, it will be difficult to correct the family ......style" Su Qingyuan's expression was solemn, and his tone was cold, which was very different from his previous appearance.

"Dad, Xiao Qi-" Su Qi was about to speak, but was interrupted by Su Qingyuan.

"You will be punished for copying the full text of the Tao Te Ching, and you will not be allowed to leave the courtyard door until you finish copying, and if there is a typo, you will recopy the full text. "Obviously, Su Qingyuan's appearance at this time can be regarded as 'fierce', but Su Qi was so shocked that he didn't react for a while.

The so-called punishment is like this? There is no family law, no kneeling in the ancestral hall, just copying books?

Also unable to react were Xu Lian and Jiang's mother, the former had unconsciously opened his lips and couldn't close them for a long time, and the latter's situation was not much better.

"Master......" Xu Lian's face was originally pale, and her complexion at this time was even more gray in the whiteness.

"Madame has been working hard for the family, and now she is still sick, and it seems that I am too ruthless as a husband to let Madame work hard. From now on, Mrs. will be relieved to recuperate in the Fuhui Hall, and as for the trivial matters in the back house, all the trivial matters can be handed over to Aunt Zhao. ”

Xu Lian almost fell to the ground on her feet, but fortunately, Jiang's mother supported her body in time.

Did she really hear it right? Her husband actually wanted to take advantage of her illness to remove her stewardship and hand it over to a lowly concubine?

This kind of development also surprised Su Qi at the same time, but compared to Xu Lian, the expression on her face was much calmer.
