"Do you know what's wrong with you?" Grandmother Xiao was half-asleep, and her voice was vain.

"The child was uncertain, so that he was pinched by someone out of proportion, and the Xiao family was in danger." Xiao Yuan lowered his head. wanted him to crawl around in the mall, but he was calculated by a young headcatcher, so that he had no face.

Grandmother Xiao listened to Xiao Yuan's words, and her eyes flashed with fatigue and disappointment. Holding the black velvet with one hand, he said: "Our Xiao family, the reason why we have developed in Shicheng to this day is inseparable from the word 'integrity'. What have you done so far? slandered an innocent girl, and the other party is still our Xiao family's benefactor. Sooner or later, everyone knows about this matter, where do you put my old face? ”

"When did you become so ruthless and unrighteous, Yuan'er." After Grandmother Xiao said these words, her face seemed to have aged a lot. Her withered fingers trembled and pointed to the calligraphy and painting hanging on the east wall, on which hung a pair of large characters "letter", and the font pen and ink were vigorous through the back of the paper.

Xiao Yuan's copper-colored face revealed a layer of redness, I don't know if it was because of the sultry temperature in the room, or the shame of being reprimanded by his mother.

"It is the child's fault that the mother is angry. The doctor says you can't get excited. Grandmother Xiao's trembling body fluctuated emotionally, and Xiao Yuan, who was frightened, hurriedly comforted her.

"I once said that Lei'er married that woman if she liked her. Why are we struggling with each other's life experience, we are not nobles, and we don't pay attention to the identity of those Laoshzi. I know what you think, when Xiao Lei has an official and a half-job, and then he looks for an official girl, no matter what kind of relationship he has, isn't it the same to marry into the family? As for the people around Lei'er at that time, they could still share Lei'er's love, that was her own business. After all, Grandmother Xiao was more transparent than Xiao Yuan, and a few words melted the knot in Xiao Yuan's heart.

"Mother, the child has already thought about it. can't let others chew on the matter of the court and ruin the reputation of the Xiao family. So I thought that in a few days, when my mother was in good health and had energy, I would inform my mother about it. Xiao Yuan said his plan again, "As long as Miss Shi enters the Xiao family, then outsiders will only think that we have misunderstood each other, rather than deliberately framing each other." Xiao Yuan had thought about it many times, and only this method was the most suitable.

"Hmph, you are wishful thinking, but you know what other girls think." Grandmother Xiao looked at Xiao Lei, people who are about to be over half a hundred years old are still so naïve.

"Why doesn't she want to, if she doesn't want to, she won't go back to the Xiao family after the court." Xiao Yuan's tone was contemptuous.

"Confused! Would it be stupid for her to be able to get a witness in the unfamiliar Stone City? What did you find in one day? In addition to bad accounts, the book is used as a gunman. I don't know what Zheng Zhutou's intentions are for Miss Shi, just because she returned to the Xiao family quietly and didn't mention anything about the court, I know that this woman's city is deep. The more she looked at her son, the more painful her head became.

This huge Xiao family's family business, it is impossible for Xiao Yuan to work hard just by his performance at the moment, she knows her son.

Grandmother Xiao's eyes suddenly flashed the appearance of a woman, graceful and quiet.

Thoughts unconsciously drifted far to many years ago, when the Xiao family only had a tiled house to shelter from the wind and rain, and it was not like the Xiao Mansion that covers an area of nearly 100 acres now, when Xiao Yuan had just accepted Liu Yemei as a concubine. Ordinary people only have one wife in their lives, and Xiao Yuan was also an ordinary family at that time, but he accepted a concubine, and the other party was still willing to marry into the Xiao family as a concubine.

Grandmother Xiao was suspicious of Liu Yemei's purpose at that time, but their family said that it was unpleasant, poor and white, and there was nothing to be gained. It seems that after Liu Yemei entered the Xiao family, no matter what Xiao Yuan did, there was a rumor that he could do it. Over the years, he has accumulated wealth, until now he has become a well-known rich armor in Stone City. But Xiao's grandmother still can't like Liu Yemei, and after Xiao Lei's biological mother passed away, Xiao Yuan no longer continued the string, which made the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law more intense.

"Mother...... Mother ...... "Grandmother Xiao doesn't remember how long Xiao Yuan hasn't called her like that."

"Hey, I'm old, and I get out of my mind when I think about it." Grandmother Xiao waved her hand.

"Yi Niang means that you can't marry Miss Shi?" Xiao Yuan asked carefully, the gap between Grandmother Xiao's previous sentence and the latter sentence was too big, and he couldn't figure out his mother's thoughts.

"Marry! How not to marry! Based on Zheng Zhutou's interest in Miss Shi, we are going to marry someone into the door. Don't treat Mingzhu as a shoe, Miss Shi's skills and the city government, after Lei'er enters the office, will definitely become his help. "If Shi Manman is a genuine person, maybe Grandmother Xiao's guess can be a little true, but unfortunately, the other party is a demon.

Xiao Yuan was ambiguous about Grandmother Xiao's words, but Grandmother Xiao promised Xiao Lei that she would not marry Shi Manman alone in the future, so she still calmed him down.

Xiao Lei didn't know anything about his father's conversation with his grandmother.

He only remembered when he watched Shi Manman's bored teasing of the fish in the pond that he had never been anywhere except for his study these days. So he threw the last small piece of steamed bun into the pool, and the sudden shock scared the fish away, bringing up a ** line.

"I haven't taken you to take a good look at this world these days. Today, I will take you to visit Shicheng, and it is almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Shicheng must be lively. Xiao Lei was finally able to stretch a complete lazy waist.

The two refused the maid entourage to follow, and stepped out of the threshold where Xiao Mansion stood, Xiao Lei stood stunned and watched the bustling pedestrians and cars, as if he really felt that he was back in the world.

"Where to go?" Shi Manman looked at Xiao Lei in a daze and asked.

"Chaorong Street should have begun to decorate the color building, in previous years, it was very prosperous in the Mid-Autumn Festival, we can go and take a look."

Xiao Lei didn't plan to take a carriage, Chaorong Street was not far away, and that street had always been crowded, and taking a carriage would block himself on the road.

Shi ManmanThis is the first time she has gone shopping, and she walks very slowly. The shouting of street vendors, the rolling of horses' hooves and carriages, and the bargaining between the two men in the sale and purchase of the two can make the stone vines stand still for a long time.

The scenes she saw matched the words she had seen. She can understand what it means to "be noisy with cars and horses" and what it means to be "thousands of miles of farmers and merchants are noisy day and day".

Xiao Lei didn't bother Shi Manman, quietly accompanied her, waiting for her to see doubts between her eyebrows, and tacitly answered one or two for her.

Before they knew it, they had come to the arch bridge that they had to pass to Chao Rong Street. The willows on the bridge bank hang low, the spring waves under the bridge are green, and the sparse shadow on the water surface reflects the curious faces of the stone vines.

"Stone girl. What a coincidence, meet again. The abrupt voice brought Xiao Lei back from the freehand scenery.

Xiao Lei frowned, and when he turned around, he intentionally or unintentionally blocked the stone vines behind him.

An Ge changed out of the tie he wore on official duties today, and wore a black Yunxiang Fu Bat Pattern Suit, which added a touch of heroism to his feminine face.

Despite this, his appearance still can't escape the word "demon rule", the gaze in his Danfeng's long eyes has always fallen on the stone vine face, and he has never looked at Xiao Lei for a minute, as if the other party is transparent.
