Chapter Thirty-Eight: Rumors Rise Again

When Le Xi hurriedly finished dressing up and stepped into the main room, he happened to hear Li slap the table and say angrily. The letterhead in her hand fell to the ground.

Le Xi's eyebrows jumped, and he quickly stepped forward to pick up the letterhead with the stinging pain of his bare feet, and looked at Li with worried eyes. "Mother, what's wrong?!"

Li was so angry that his face turned red, and when he saw Le Xi holding the letterhead, he panicked and asked her to sit first.

Mother Xu gave Mother Li, who came in on the back foot, and Mother Li took a quick look at the mother and daughter, and then withdrew softly. The maids who were waiting in the house were also very eye-catching, and they all quietly retreated.

At this time, Li pointed to the letterhead in Le Xi's hand and said indignantly: "It's really red and white, and those who are dead can be said to be alive!" ”

Le Xi listened and put the letterhead in front of him, and it was simplified, and he read it in ten lines at a glance without obstacles.

The further down she looked, the more angry she had on her face, in addition to the initial surprise. Seeing the end, I was even more angry that my hands were shaking.

"It's just gibberish, reversing right and wrong! In order to save the family, Bofu wants to transfer the concubine to the concubine, and the sister to change the family!! Obviously, the Duchess of Huguo was afraid that she would not be able to quit her family, so she had dirty thoughts, so she mistook me for Le Yan in the temple! Where did all these rumors come from! ”

Throwing the letter on the round table, Le Xi's eyes widened, and the anger in his heart was surging.

"The strange thing is that Le Yan may become a concubine, only the family knows. The Duchess of the Protector mistakenly recognized you, and only you, me, and your father knew, how could this be spread? It's still so divine!! Li was angry, but his thoughts were very clear, and he pointed out the suspicious points one by one.

Moreover, Le Shaoyuan mentioned in the letter that these rumors were unintentionally heard by the guards in the teahouse. There are many wanderers coming and going, and there are so many people that they can't find out where the matter started.

It's only been two days since the incense was made, and it's been revealed too quickly!

Li also thought of what Lexi said, and carefully recalled the events of Shangxiang that day, and opened his mouth uncertainly. "Isn't it that when my grandmother reprimanded Le Yan in the wing room that day, the partition wall had ears?" But thinking about it, he still felt that it was wrong, and guessed: "Just think that the matter of the concubine was listened to, and it is impossible for others to listen to the matter of admitting mistakes." Unless... The matter of recognizing the wrong person was said by the Duchess of the Protector herself! I want to take this opportunity to make Bofu simply point and retreat in spite of the difficulties! ”

Le Xi's tone changed from hesitation to affirmation, Li pursed his lips, looked down at the tea bowl on the table, and only looked up again after a while: "If you can follow this matter, it is not a bad thing to retire from the family." Today, the Wufuyuan said that Master Su Ru had already answered, and he would come to teach after August 15. ”

Li said this, Le Xi was stunned and understood what she meant.

Previously, she had been pressed and didn't dare to respond to the resignation of the Protector Mansion, for fear that it would damage her reputation. Now that this incident has happened, it is forced that the Bofu can't enter half a point, so she simply proposed to withdraw from her relatives first as she wanted, and it seems that the Bofu is high-spirited. The damage to her reputation will also be minimized.

Moreover, Master Su Ru came to the door, as long as she fought for breath, she got a good voice from Master Su Ru. What reputation is not?!

"I was going to withdraw from my family, since we gave him a chance, why shouldn't we do it?" Le Xi nodded seriously, and her well-behaved appearance made Li reach out and rub her hair, and sighed: "Our Xiaoxi is a treasure, and those are all ignorant treasures." ”

Le Xi sneered when he heard this, "Then let my mother protect my treasure tightly, don't let it go when you're free." ”

Li was also amused, and his anger disappeared, and he smiled slightly. But looking at Le Xi's painful crooked eyebrows, thinking of his son who was missing, he felt infinitely melancholy in his heart. Perhaps, I really can't let go easily.

Even if it is a way out, this matter can only be discussed when Le Shaoyuan comes back. After saying this, Le Yu, who returned home drunk last night, happened to come.

After Le Yu saluted the Li family, Le Xi lazily got up and gave him a blessing and swept his eyes with the corner of his eye. I saw that the noble son, who was used to being gentle, had a slightly blue face today, bloodshot eyes, and a look of poor spirits.

The maid served tea, Li stared at Le Yu a few times, and asked gently: "I heard your father say, you drank too much yesterday, but today you are better?" ”

Le Yu's eyes flashed with embarrassment, and he whispered: "Mother Lao is worried, she has sobered up." It was the son who shouldn't be so uncontrollable, and he disturbed his father and mother's rest. ”

Li waved his hand, "What bother me or not, I will be listened to by others, you are my son-in-law, and this uncle will have to be handed over to you in the future." Your sister will have to point to your brother in the future, we are a family. ”

The Li family summed it up cleverly, there are two girls in this big house, and there is a world of difference between the younger sister and the younger sisters. Le Yu naturally understood the metaphor, and remembered what Le Shaoyuan said in the small study yesterday, and his face became even more unnatural.

He half-lowered his head, the complicated emotions in his eyes flowed, and it took a while for him to look up and reply to Li's words: "What my mother said is that my son will definitely be angry, and he will not let people underestimate our uncle and sister in the house." ”

This kid is really unbreathable!

Li listened to Le Yu's pretending to be confused, and complained in his heart, but his face was not easy to show. In fact, people can't find fault with these words, so they have to make a faint sound.

Le Xi was already glaring on the side, and scolded Le Yu in his heart for not distinguishing between right and wrong, and was blinded by Le Yan with lard! That's it, and I think about her!

The atmosphere in the room was a little depressing, and Le Yu also retired after drinking a cup of tea.

The mother and daughter didn't want to mention anything else, and talked about the autumn clothes made in the house, Le Xi is a design major, and he is most interested in these. The two talked about the material to the pattern, and when it came to the excitement, Le Xi wanted to draw and record it on the spot. However, the shoulder injury was still unable to hold a pen, so I had to ask Xu's mother to write down the content first, so as to save omissions.

Just as lunch was about to be served, a steward hurriedly took a gilded red sticker and came to ask for a meeting, saying that it was sent by someone from the Qi Palace.

Hearing the name of Qi Wangfu, Le Xi and Li were shocked, and Xu's mother took the post and handed it to Li. Li opened it and took a look, and it was written that the Qi Palace's Mansion held a flower-viewing banquet three days later, and invited the sons and girls of the Bofu to attend the banquet, and the payment was the lord of Jiarou.

Le Xi leaned in front of Li and read together, and when he saw the four characters of the county lord of Jiarou, he opened his mouth slightly, and then smiled with relief: "It turns out that the county lord of Jiarou is the daughter of the king of Qi, and it was she who helped clarify last time, and I still want to inquire with the second girl of Qi to thank you." ”

Mother Xu listened to it on the side, and her face was a little strange, "The old slave still thinks that the girl knows the identity of the county lord of Jiarou, but it turns out that the girl doesn't know?" This Jiarou county lord is still the cousin of the Protector's Mansion......"
