Chapter VIII: Persuasion

That night, in the study of King Mu's mansion, Li Cangshu stood in front of the desk and calmly wrote big characters.

Basil stood aside and told him what had happened today, focusing on Miss Xu's affairs.

He listened with a smile and squinted his eyes from head to point, and the brush in his hand wrote more fluently.

Today is really a rare five-in-one!

After confirming that the waist card was indeed handed over to Bai Ying, he put down the brush in his hand and opened the folding fan on the side with a "snap".

While fanning the wind, he nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Did Ying'er really say something like that to you?" ”

Basil bowed his head and said respectfully, "It's true." ”

When a little girl said so sure that he would definitely do something for her in the future, Basil felt a headache in retrospect.

Li Cangshu originally just smiled lightly, but now he laughed directly.

Dare to talk to Basil like that, except for him, there is only Ying'er!

Because of his joy, Li Cangshu put away the folding fan and rhythmically tapped his palm in his hand.

"Ying'er now has a little bit of the style of this king, and she has a bit of courage to dare to speak to you like this, but she really has this qualification."

One sentence made Basil's heart tremble, knowing what Cangshu was talking about, but he still asked: "Forgive your subordinates for being ignorant, what does this mean by master?" ”

Hearing this, Cangshu turned his head to look at Basil, leaned forward and asked, "Basil, are you really stupid or falsely ignorant?" True or not, it's just as you think in your heart. ”

At the end, the folding fan in his hand tapped Basil's chest a few times, and then walked to the desk with a laugh, picked up the book he had seen half of earlier, and crossed Erlang's legs to read carefully.

"The people of the Anjun Wang family came to your house today?" He looked at the book and suddenly asked.

"Yes, according to your intentions, Master, Miss Xu is the final decision of the matter."

Hearing this, Li Cangshu didn't say anything more, and waved his hand to let Basil retreat.

It seems that things have gradually progressed step by step according to their own plans.

My baby Ying'er, when the time comes, you will have to thank this king well!

The backyard of Xu's house.

Xu Baiying let Banxia fan the wind, and sat on the rocking chair eating watermelon, next to a large vat with a large ice cube in it.

Every time Banxia fanned it, the cool air on the ice cubes rushed to her, so it was not cool.

Xu Baiying remembered what she said to Basil when she left Luo's house, and the other party's expression made her want to laugh when she thought about it.

Now it has been four or five days since she met Uncle Thirteen, and not only did that person not come to her, but there was no news at all.

Now don't talk about questioning him, it's nice to see that man.

Just when she was still thinking about such a person, Yinping ran in in a panic, and almost knocked over the teacup on the table.

Seeing her like this, Banxia couldn't help but reprimand: "Panicked, what do you look like?" ”

Yinping ignored Banxia's words, knelt in front of Xu Baiying, his face was shocked, and he said in a panic: "Miss, it's not good!" The old man and the old ancestor quarreled, and the lady fainted in fright. ”

"What!"

Hearing this, Xu Baiying suddenly got up from the rocking chair, and the playbook on his lap fell to the ground, completely unaware.

"Mother, does it matter if she wants it?" She was worried, and couldn't help but raise her voice and ask.

Yinping knelt on the ground, and she shrank her head when she was frightened by Xu Baiying.

"The master has already found a doctor for his wife, and the doctor said that it is all right, and he has rested. Miss, hurry up to the ancestral courtyard, it's already messed up over there. ”

Xu Baiying waved her sleeves, and she hurriedly ran to the small courtyard of the old ancestor without caring about the people behind her.

There was such a big thing happening in the house, why did she realize it so late?

In the end, let a girl who was in charge of the accounts in her hospital tell me!

She doesn't care how this girl jumps in the mansion for the time being, she cares more about the fact that in this mansion, the news she gets will be so ill-informed!

When he arrived at the courtyard of the old ancestor, Xu Baiying's clothes were already soaked in this sultry weather because of running all the way.

Before she entered the courtyard, she heard the scolding of the old ancestor, which really startled her.

"You unfilial son! Do you want our Xu family to have no queen? Her stomach is not angry, I promise you will not let you divorce her, but you have to give me a concubine to come back, I don't want our Xu family to have no one to renew the incense! ”

The words of the old ancestor were very clear to her, but she was also very angry.

In his previous life, Xu Jiashi became depressed because of this incident, and finally died of illness.

At that time, she didn't care about it, but it didn't mean that she was still like this at this time!

The ancients said: There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great.

The hats that the ancestors wore for her mother and father were too big, and they were still wearing them!

The silver screen that rushed in rushed to report when Xu Baiying was about to enter the front room.

Looking at the silver screen that had disappeared at the door, Xu Baiying couldn't help frowning.

Whose subordinate, in the end, is this!

"Grandma."

As soon as she entered the house, Xu Baiying directly called the old ancestor, and then her eyes fell on Xu Jiang.

She moved her mouth, and finally called out to "Father" and turned her head to the side.

In the final analysis, she is still obsessed with Xu Jiang!

When the old ancestor saw her appear, he took his displeasure on her, and asked angrily, "What are you doing here?" ”

Xu Baiying stood aside and said respectfully: "I heard that something happened to your side, grandma, so I came over to take a look." ”

The old ancestor's hand holding the cane tightened, and he knocked the ground hard with the cane, and said, "Hmph, there is another one to block me." It's all your uncompetitive mother, you can't give birth to a child yourself, do you still want my son to have no queen? Do you want my Xu family to have no one to renew the incense? ”

This made Xu Baiying want to get angry when she heard this, and her hands were only clenched into fists because of anger.

But she knew that the ancestor was an elder, and anyone in the house had to respect her, so she couldn't talk back.

When the time comes, the sins will fall on her and her mother's heads.

The words of the old ancestor made Xu Jiang, who had been swallowing his anger, explode.

He stood up and walked behind Xu Baiying, protected Bai Ying, and said word by word: "Mother, I have said it many times, this matter is not about Xiang'er, and you should not involve your anger on the child." ”

Xu Jiang's words made the old ancestor so angry that he couldn't speak.

This stiff atmosphere made Xu Baiying feel suffocated.

The old ancestor's temper is stubborn, and if she starts a fire, everyone around her will suffer, even if she has experienced it, she still has palpitations.

She thought to herself that she would die horizontally and vertically, so she would just die to the end!

The ancestor likes to listen to good words, so she will say more to make her happy!

Anyway, the old ancestor only thinks about his own peace of mind!

She stepped forward and forced herself not to pay attention to the anger on the ancestor, and carefully slapped the ancestor's back, her voice soft, trying to coax the ancestor.

"Grandma, why are you so angry? It's not good for the body.

You also know that my father is now being honored by the Holy Lord, so naturally I can't take care of things in the house, and my mother has worked harder.

My mother's body was very weak, and when my father was not in the house, she tried her best to handle the affairs of the house in an orderly manner, without any complaints.

Grandma, you don't want to see your father worry about things in the house, and then affect your father's errands outside.

I wish I had a lovely brother, but the situation doesn't allow it.

If the father really takes a concubine back, the father is away all the year round, and the aunt can only stay alone in the empty room, how unfair it is to the aunt.

Let's put today's things aside for a while, and then let's think about it in the long term after this year, okay? ”

The old ancestor listened to Xu Baiying's words, and he had a straight face from beginning to end.

Still, that doesn't mean she didn't listen.

She raised her head and glanced at Xu Jiang, who was standing aside and pursed her lips and began to be silent, and sighed.

In the end, he compromised: "Let's all go down, I'm tired." ”

Seeing this, Xu Baiying knew that his ancestor had listened to his words, and then walked in front of the ancestor and said, "Grandma, you are so resting." ”

After speaking, he left with Banxia and Yinping.

Xu Jiang walked out of her voice, as calm as before, as if nothing had happened just now, and said to the old ancestor: "My son will retire first." ”

Out of the house, Xu Jiang looked at Bai Ying not far away, his face was slightly dark.

When he woke up from a coma from above, Ying'er treated him like a different person, no longer as close as before.

Not only is he estranged a lot, but he is also afraid of him.

It's as if he's a man-eating tiger, and more often than not, it's the feeling of having to get along with him.

"Ying'er."

Seeing that Bai Ying was about to leave his line of sight, Xu Jiang hurriedly opened his mouth to call the other party.

Although Bai Ying was reluctant, she still stood still, turned around, and asked, "What is my father looking for me?" ”

Xu Jiang sighed lightly, his face full of tiredness.

He stepped forward, stood in front of her, and said, "Today's matter is thanks to you, and your mother will ask you to take care of it." There are a lot of things in the front yard that have not been dealt with, and I still have to ......"

"I know all of this, just take care of it."

Before Xu Jiang's words were finished, Bai Ying suddenly interrupted.

She didn't need to listen to those reasons, and she didn't need to hear them.

Xu Jiang, who was interrupted, looked at her incredulously, but he felt that today's incident was originally his fault first.

Now that he doesn't go to visit Xu Jia's family, Ying'er should really blame him in her heart.

Even though he knew all this, he couldn't help but have a hurt look on his face.

Xu was moved by Xu Jiang's injury, and she sighed lightly in her heart, and a smile regained on her face.

She raised her head and said to Xu Jiang: "My father is working hard for this family, I know it." I'm going to visit my mother now, and I'm very anxious. ”

Xu Jiang, who was infected by her smile, gathered the expression on his face, nodded hurriedly, and said, "Go quickly, tell your mother, I'll go over when I'm done." ”

Bai Ying nodded, but did not leave.

Xu Jiang felt curious and asked, "Is there anything else Ying'er has to do?" ”

Bai Ying thought about it for a while, and finally made up her mind.

"Father, if you want to take a concubine, I won't stop it, and I will explain it to my mother, but I have a request, that is, I can't accept a girl surnamed Liu, this is my last forbearance."

After saying this, she didn't wait for Xu Jiang to react, and turned to leave.

Xu Jiang, who was in a fog by her call, was a little puzzled, looked at her departing back, and sighed silently.
