Chapter 292: Young Master Gets into Trouble
After Xia Xiang withdrew, the old lady seemed to think of something and immediately looked at Mama Lei beside her, "How is the matter for you to inquire?"
The other party was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted, "The old lady is asking about Miss Nine's marriage?"
The old lady nodded lightly, she really cherished the child during this time, but it was impossible for anyone with a little faΓ§ade to accept a woman who could not have children.
Mama Lei's expression flickered a little, "Old lady, the slave maid has already inquired, but it's a pity that there is no suitable candidate for Miss Nine in Beijing." β
Sure enough, a long sigh of regret came, and the old lady looked at the flickering candle flame with deep meaning, "So, it can only be that person." β
As soon as these words came out, Mama Lei's eyes were immediately stunned, and she quickly guessed her thoughts.
"What does the old lady mean by the major general mentioned the other day?"
Xia Yihai may feel guilty about his daughter who has been neglected for many years, so he discussed with the old lady and wanted to match Xia Xiangxu to a young and brave major general under him.
Although he is not a wealthy family, but the general is full of praise for him, and he is a widower, the young wife died of illness after giving birth to two sons, and he is at the border all the year round, leaving only the old mother and two children in his hometown, although such conditions are somewhat wronged Xiang'er, but it is also a home. β
The old lady has her own considerations, Xia Yihai has a life-saving grace for this major general, he has no intention of marrying another wife, as long as Xia Xiang can treat his two sons as his own, and with that kindness, he will not treat his granddaughter badly.
"So the old lady is relieved to let Miss Nine handle the practice banquet of the eldest young master this time?" Mama Lei suddenly realized, she was worried that the old lady would think that Xia Xiang was too young to handle this back house business.
"I heard from the general, the major general is the eldest son in the family, there are not many brothers but it is better to be united, Xiang'er has to learn how to take care of the back house after she gets married, and I plan to let her follow Aunt Su for a while and prepare early. β
The old lady was thoughtful, everything was for Xia Xiang's future, she didn't notice that Mama Lei beside her seemed to be a little unbearable in her eyes, as if she was feeling that Xia Xiang had such a grandmother who was really good for her.
"Miss Nine will be grateful to the old lady in the future. β
"It's all the flesh and blood of our Xia family, and she's also a poor child......"
But I didn't want to at this time, but there was a frightened shout outside, and the old lady's face in the house suddenly changed, and soon, a maidservant girl ran in in a panic, "Old lady, the fifth young master, the fifth young master beat the ninth miss!"
What the?
When everyone arrived, Xia Xiang was falling to the ground in horror and covering her cheeks.
"Stop him for me!"
The old lady was suddenly angry, and soon the girl on the ground was helped up by the maidservants, and Chu Chu returned to her pitifully, "Grandmother, don't blame the fifth brother, it's all bad." β
Tears suddenly poured out, the little face with pear blossoms and rain made the old lady feel very distressed, she gritted her teeth and looked at Xia Yichuan who looked at Xia Yichuan who had no remorse on her face at this time, "Bastard! I didn't learn anything when I went to the barracks and came back, but I know how to beat my sister!"
Xia Yichuan pursed his lips, this silent appearance made people feel that he seemed to be unconvinced.
"Old lady, the fifth young master ...... because he heard that Miss Nine was going to organize the eldest young master's practice banquet."
The maidservant girl on the side explained, the old lady's face became more and more gloomy, she really didn't expect Xia Yichuan to be so narrow-minded, and she couldn't see the good of others!
"Since you don't want to practice it for your eldest brother, okay! Come on, take the fifth young master back to the house, no one is allowed to let him out without my order!"
As soon as these words came out, the guards who had just stopped Xia Yichuan immediately took him down.
Not far away, Xia Qianwei already had a full view of this scene.
"Miss, the Fifth Young Master's attack is really heavy, and Miss Nine's face is swollen. The picturesque beside her said with palpitations, but Xia Qianwei just smiled faintly.
Not to mention that Xia Yichuan looks reckless, but he is not a brainless person, knowing that Xia Xiang is in the old lady's yard, no matter how angry he is, he shouldn't come to the door to slap this face.
Such a deliberate approach made Xia Qianwei suddenly a little vigilant, coupled with Xia Yichuan's temperament, even if he was caught in front of everyone, he would not argue like Fang Cai, and he was brought down in such a cooperative way.
What are these two men up to?
"Miss endure a little, it must be very painful. Xia Xiang was sent back to the house, and the maid beside her carefully applied an ice pack to her red and swollen cheeks.
However, she was surprised to find that the girl in front of her didn't say a word, just lowered her head with deep eyes and didn't know what she was thinking.
"Ninth sister. β
A familiar voice came from the door, Xia Xiang subconsciously raised her head, and then stood up in panic, "Third sister......"
At this time, Xia Qianwei had already taken the ice pack in the handmaid's hand, and slowly came to Xia Xiang and touched her little face softly, the other party suddenly frowned, and took a few steps back in pain.
"Fifth brother is really...... This little face is hurt like this, how can I see your future husband tomorrow?"
At this point, Xia Xiang's face changed slightly, and then a puzzled expression appeared.
Xia Qianwei smiled kindly, "Ninth sister doesn't know yet, grandmother has chosen an excellent husband for you, I heard that he will come to the house tomorrow to see you." β
The night breeze poured lightly from the window, Xia Qianwei's body actually spread a faint scent of ambergris, Xia Xiang's hand in his sleeve couldn't help but tighten, isn't this the smell of Youwang's body? Could it be that they met again today, and they still have a very intimate behavior?
Jealousy made Xia Xiang's heart seem to overflow with venom, but she had a shy and helpless look on her face, "Xiang'er doesn't want to marry yet......"
"What are you talking about, your body is already like this, if you don't hurry up and find a suitable candidate, will it be possible that the General's Mansion will support you for a lifetime?" Xia Qianwei's face suddenly sank, and this mean appearance made Xia Xiang slightly stunned.
The beautiful woman in front of her seemed to have torn off her usual mask and turned into the appearance of Xia Xiang's memory again.
"I heard that the man is a widower, the original wife died, and there are still two children, you can marry and have to serve well, as a sister, I have to mention a few words to you, since they can't have children, those two children are your future dependence, the daughter who married out of the water spilled, don't make trouble for the general's mansion." β
Looking at Xia Qianwei's indifferent expression, Xia Xiang had a trance for a moment, what was going on?
