Yu Jia wanted Hu Li to follow him on a tour of the mountains and rivers but Hu Li firmly refused, he ate the sweet snacks in his mouth, and muttered, "If I go to play with you, Brother Xiao will be very sad." He's busy now, and he can't sleep well every day. ”

Yu Jia glanced at Hu Li, "And then, what can you do?" ”

Hu Li opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but it seemed that he really had no effect. No, every time Brother Xiao comes back, he will use his aura to help Brother Xiao recover his body, isn't it useless?

Hu Li glanced at the leisurely Yu Jia indignantly, and snorted, "No, if it weren't for me, Brother Xiao would be even more tired." ”

Yu Jia didn't believe it at all, but he nodded when he looked at Hu Li's puffing appearance, and said very perfunctorily: "Yes, yes, you are essential." ”

Hu Li was satisfied, although what Yu Jia said didn't sound sincere at all, it was good that he and Brother Xiao knew about it.

The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and Xiao's mother's illness has recovered a lot after a winter, at least she can go out of the house and sit in the yard for a while.

"Madame, Mademoiselle has a letter." Mama Liu took a thin letter and handed it to Xiao's mother, Xiao's mother's eyes lit up, she took the envelope, opened the envelope with some weakness, and pulled out the stationery inside.

"Shu'er, my sister-in-law." Xiao's mother's already weak hand began to tremble because of the content on the letterhead, and Mama Liu was shocked and hurriedly patted Xiao's mother's back, "Madam, don't be in a hurry, can't be in a hurry!" ”

Xiao's mother took a few breaths, the letter in her hand fell weakly to the ground, looking at the blue sky, her tone was fluttering, "Go, invite Xiao Qiao." ”

Mama Liu looked at Xiao's mother who was lying on the recliner and was emaciated, and her heart was sour. In the past, even if the lord didn't like the lady, he always respected the lady, and half of the time of the month was always with the lady. But now, the lord has only been here a few times throughout the winter, and even the New Year's Festival has only come to see a few times before leaving.

Thinking of the last person she had seen before Madame was sick, it was Xiao Qiao, Mama Liu wiped her tears and picked up the paper that fell on the ground, "Madam, the old slave is going to invite the eldest young master." ”

Xiao's mother made a "ho-ho" sound in her mouth, wanting to say something but didn't say it in the end, she watched Mama Liu cover her with a blanket, called the two maids over to serve her, and walked out with her back straight.

Mama Liu straightened her back, Madame fell, she could only hold up, and she couldn't let the cats and dogs in the house come to disturb Madame. Thinking of what was written on the letter, Mama Liu sighed in her heart, she knew that the eldest lady not only gave a letter to Mrs., but also gave An's a letter.

She didn't know what was written in An's letter, but what was written in Madame's letter was enough to make Madame bow to the eldest young master for her. They have been holding out for a winter, and they haven't bowed their heads to the eldest young master, but they didn't expect to bow their heads because of the eldest lady.

Yes, Madame's biggest weakness is the eldest lady, when the eldest lady got married, they still thought that it would be okay, at least Madame could make the eldest lady live better in the Qi family. If it is really as originally thought, I went to the mansion of the eldest prince, and I don't know what life it will be, not to mention, now the eldest prince, no, it is King Ning who has been divided, and the emperor is far away, even if there are any difficulties, they can't help.

Madame poisoned the eldest young master for the sake of the eldest lady, although she failed to succeed, and even made the eldest young master wary. And now, the lady also has to bow to the eldest young master for the sake of the eldest lady.

How good it would be if the eldest young master was the lady's child, how good it would be if they treated the eldest young master well since they were young, and how good it would be if the eldest lady didn't have zài at all!

A hint of cruelty flashed in Mama Liu's eyes, she watched her wife grow up, and she had never seen her so depressed. Miss, how good it would be if you didn't save zài!

When Xiao Qiao returned home, he happened to meet Xiao's father, who also came back, and Xiao's father looked at his son who was now at the same level as himself, and he was proud. He knows what he knows, and today's Taichang Siqing is basically the end of his career, but his son is only 19 years old now, and there is still a chance to improve.

"Father is back." Xiao Qiao and Xiao's father walked into Xiao's mansion together, Xiao's father smiled and nodded, "Now that the spring equinox is approaching, and it's time to preside over the spring festival again, I'm busy again." ”

"That's what my father said."

"I've seen the master, the eldest young master."

"Mama Liu, why are you here?" Father Xiao looked at Mama Liu suspiciously, although Mrs. Li's health has improved a lot recently, but it is also inseparable from people, Mama Liu is an old man who has served Madame for many years, how can she run out at this time.

"Master, Mrs. misses the eldest young master very much, and wants to invite the eldest young master to go." When Mama Liu went to Xiao Qiao's yard, there were only a few maids, not to mention that Xiao Qiao was not even Hu Li, she could only wait at the gatehouse.

"Mother?" Xiao Qiao raised his eyebrows and looked at Mama Liu, and turned his head to look at Xiao's father on the side, "In this case, my son will go over first." ”

"Go," Father Xiao waved his hand, he had been wearing his official uniform for a day, and he had to hurry up and change this outfit.

As soon as Xiao Qiao entered the courtyard, he saw Xiao's mother sitting on the soft couch, looking at him with a rare clear look.

"My mother's health looks much better, and the weather is getting warmer, so I think my mother's illness will get better in the summer." Xiao Qiao bowed and saluted, his expression was unusual, as if it was really the mother in front of him who he admired with all his heart.

Xiao's mother's face distorted for a moment, looked at Mama Liu, who followed up, and said in a weak tone, "Go and get a chair for the eldest young master." ”

"Yes, ma'am." The maid who was guarding the side hurriedly beckoned a servant to move the chair over and respectfully placed it next to Xiao Qiao.

Xiao Qiao didn't wait for Xiao's mother to speak, and sat down directly.

Xiao's mother pretended not to see it, and the others lowered their heads, not daring to even look at it. Mother Xiao waved her hand, "Mama Liu stays, you all step down." ”

"Yes, ma'am." A few servants quickly retreated when they heard this, they couldn't wait to leave quickly, the atmosphere between the lady and the eldest young master was too strange.

"Does Mother have anything to say to Kiao?" Xiao Qiao smiled and looked at Xiao's mother casually.

Xiao's mother sat up with great difficulty, trying her best to maintain her previous graceful appearance as the housewife of the Xiao family. It's a pity that after one winter, Xiao's mother was almost thin and out of shape, and she was no longer the Xiao family's housewife who had made him Xiao Qiao bother and work hard all his life.

Xiao's mother looked at Xiao Qiao, who was still smiling carelessly, and suddenly lost her strength and fell on the soft couch. After Mama Liu exclaimed, she silently helped the person up, knelt on the ground, put her hand on Xiao's mother's back, and supported her.

Xiao's mother waved her hand, leaned back on the soft cushion, looked at Xiao Qiao weakly, and after a long silence, the words of pleading finally came out.

"You help Shu'er!"

"What's wrong with my sister?" Xiao Qiao hasn't paid much attention to Xiao Jingshu for a long time, and since Xiao Jingshu "slipped tires", he hasn't paid much attention to her. Even if Xiao Jingshu turns the sky upside down, it is just the Qi family's one-third of an acre.

Xiao's mother trembled and handed the letter to Xiao Qiao, Xiao Qiao just glanced at it and didn't even stretch out her hand, "Mother, just listen to me." ”

Xiao's mother was so angry that her eyes were red, and Mama Liu knelt aside to hold Xiao's mother's hand, and said in a low voice: "Madame is tired, let the old slave tell the eldest young master." ”

"Mama, please speak." Xiao Qiao smiled and nodded, and Mama Liu endured the embarrassment and pain and whispered about Xiao Jingshu.

Xiao Jingshu has been reproached in the Qi family since she slipped a tire, and Xiao Jingshu's birth is also weird. After all, it is a fetus that is about to be born, even if it accidentally slips, premature birth should be the birth of a child, but after Xiao Jingshu shed a lot of blood, nothing was born.

The old lady of the Qi family thought that Xiao Jingshu was pregnant, but now that it was almost a month, she was about to reveal her stuffing, so she came up with this trick. But thinking that Xiao Jingshu married in, she also personally stared at the trusted doctor to check her pulse, and it was indeed a happy pulse.

This matter is taboo in the Qi family, and the old lady of the Qi family hurriedly sent her henchmen to find a dead baby and came back, only saying that she did not save the child after the slippery tire. But I really don't like Xiao Jingshu.

The people in the Qi Mansion also watched people put down dishes, and seeing that Xiao Jingshu was not favored, she gradually became sluggish, and it was Ying'e beside her who said something to Xiao Jingshu well, which made her realize that although Qi Qingyun was an incapable child, it was true that the young master of Qi Mansion was the grandson of the Eight Classics, as long as Qi Qingyun was devoted to her, the old lady and the old man who loved Qi Qingyun would support her.

Ying'e helped come up with some ideas, which made Qi Qingyun fall in love with Xiao Jingshu again, and Xiao Jingshu's life really got better, and she was pregnant with a "second" child as she wished.

Unfortunately, she was pregnant at the same time as a concubine beside Qi Qingyun, and the concubine was also restless. Every day, he went to Xiao Jingshu to dangle in front of him, and he also said some things openly and secretly.

Although Xiao Jingshu was a concubine in Xiao Mansion in the past, she was a real eldest lady, and she was protected by Xiao's mother, and the backyard of Xiao Mansion was much calmer than Qi Mansion, and she had never suffered these grievances. was ruthless, so he sent Ying'e to ask for medicine that made people lose their babies silently.

The medicine that Ying'e brought back was really useful, and the concubine room did have a miscarriage as she wished, no one could notice it, and even the concubine thought that she had slipped the fetus because she had moved the fetus to fight with Xiao Jingshu every day.

But Xiao Jingshu's belly began to grow day by day, and the concubine was also a ruthless person, otherwise she wouldn't be able to live like a fish in water in the backyard of Qi Mansion. So far, Xiao Jingshu's "second" child has also not been saved.

Xiao Jingshu's child is Qi Qingyun's sister-in-law, even if the first one is not saved, even the second one is not saved. Qi Qingyun was angry this time, none of the three children were saved, and now Xiao Jingshu is still the tip of his heart.

As soon as Qi Qingyun became angry, the old lady and the old man, the two old men who loved their grandson, began to investigate Xiao Jingshu's slippery tire, and found out the concubine's room.

When she came here, Xiao Jingshu just had to be miserable and sad, she was a poor mother who had no children. Xiao Jingshu couldn't swallow this breath, and actually let the concubine be beaten to death, it doesn't matter, the concubine is an ordinary person. As a result, somehow, the news leaked out, and everyone in the imperial city knew about it, and some people even impeached Old Man Qi for this matter.

Xiao Jingshu looked at the old man and the old lady who were becoming more and more unkind to him, and then knew that something big had happened, so she wrote a letter and sent it back to Xiao's mansion at a loss.

"Qiao, you save Shu'er."

"Mother, I'm willing to help my sister." Xiao Qiao smiled slightly, but it made Xiao's mother shudder.
