Chapter Ninety-Nine: Bad Intentions
Mo Ran looked at the noodle soup, reached out to wrap his arms around Mo Yanyu's neck, kissed him on the cheek and said, "Yiling still understands me." ”
Mo Yanyu let go of Mo Ran's arm, pulled Mo Ran to sit down at the table, let her sit down, handed the chopsticks to her hand and said, "You know me, I want to understand you, understand?" Let's eat, the chef should be no worse. ”
Mo Ran picked up the chopsticks and took a bite and said with a smile: "Well, it's delicious, why don't you eat it too, two bowls." ”
Mo Yanyu also sat down and began to eat.
In half an hour, it was already empty outside, all the ministers and the emperor were gone, and Thunder Night had also settled the accounts, standing outside the door waiting for instructions.
Yan Jinyan looked at Tingye and knocked on the door without moving, "Xiao Chen, Yanling, how are you doing?" The guests are gone, and the thunder night has also been paid, and it is time to go home. ”
As he was talking, Mo Yanyu opened the door and walked out with Mo Ran, Yan Jinyan continued: "Go back and have a good rest, today is busy." ”
Tingye spoke at this time: "The master and the lady should work hard and give birth to a little son." ”
When I heard this, my heart ached, and my body didn't know when I would get pregnant.
After saying that, Thunder Ye saw that the two of them were shy, and immediately said, "I'll go back and prepare things first, and you can wait a while." ”
After finishing speaking, when he was about to leave, Mo Yanyu stopped and said: "Tingye, sell all the gifts you saw today, except for the emperor, the Qiu family and the Qin family." ”
Tingye immediately arched his hand and said, "Yes, master, I'll do it now." With that, he ran away.
Mo Yan looked at Mo Yan Yu gratefully, and Mo Yan Yu patted Mo Yanyu's hand with one hand.
Mo Yanyu looked outside and said, "Let's go, go home, by the way, Jin Yan, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" ”
Yan Jinyan smiled and said, "I'll eat again when I go home, I ate before I started, and I'm not particularly hungry yet." ”
Mo Yanyu nodded and said, "Okay, go home, let the cook cook it for you, and report what you want to eat." ”
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and walked out of the Qilin Pavilion together.
Mo Qiyu also got the wire report three days later, and said that the line report was still on the ground: "I actually got married in Dongyue behind my back, this Yan Jin Yan didn't even report it, it seems that he was bought by King Yi in such a short time." ”
Gonggong Sun thought about it and said: "The emperor doesn't need to be angry, King Yi is not using his own identity, and neither is the ink-dyed girl, just don't admit it when the time comes, anyway, there will be a war in five months." ”
Mo Qiyu lost his anger a little when he heard this, and said: "Yes, when the time comes, it is more important to annex East Vietnam now." ”
Seeing that the emperor was not so angry, Gonggong Sun continued: "Maybe King Yi let the entire Dongyue know that there is this person through the wedding, and it will penetrate relatively quickly." ”
Mo Qiyu laughed when he heard this: "It seems that you know the imperial brother better." ”
Gonggong Sun shook his head and said: "No, no, the old slave just happened to think that the emperor is just angry now, and after it subsides, he will definitely think more accurately than the old slave." ”
Mo Qiyu knew that Grandpa Sun was an old fox, and now was not the time for a showdown, and said, "Go to Guiren's dinner tonight, you go and arrange it." ”
When Father-in-law Sun heard this, he immediately said: "Yes, the old slave will go now, and the old slave will retire." ”
At this time, Qiyue and Qi Xiao were eating in the courtyard, and the two of them each sat at a table, but they sat opposite each other, this is the normal state of the two, they don't speak, but they care about each other.
Qiyue has been pregnant for more than four months, she is already a little pregnant, some have eaten fat, but she is more beautiful, Qi Xiao likes it more and more, and she has to go back to the house to eat every day no matter how busy she is.
The two of them ate and ate and the sky became dark, and the two of them ate almost, and after eating, the two went back to their rooms, Qiyue was very strange to be pregnant, she didn't have morning sickness and didn't eat much, it was the same as usual, Qi Xiao thought she was sick and asked the doctor to come and see.
Qi Xiao counted the days on this day, Qiyue was five months pregnant, and she was going to buy a gift for her, so she called Xiaolan and asked, "Does Madame have anything you like recently?" ”
Xiaolan thought for a while and shook her head and said, "No, Madame doesn't go out, and I haven't seen Madame particularly interested in anything, if you want to say you like it, then only the master." ”
Qi Xiao didn't know what to do when he heard it, Qiyue couldn't touch herself, and I couldn't touch her, so I finally thought about it.
The next day, after Qi Xiao left the palace, he went to an art gallery, and when he entered the door, he asked, "Where is the best painter here?" ”
The shopkeeper said, "Guest, what do you want to draw?" I'll find it for you. ”
Qi Xiao said: "Those who paint portraits, paint myself, and paint my wife." ”
The shopkeeper nodded clearly and said, "Okay, I see, do you want it now, or do you want to make an appointment?" ”
Qi Xiao said: "Paint me now, and when my portrait comes out, Mrs. will invite the painter to paint it in the house." ”
The shopkeeper nodded and said, "Okay, then please come with me." ”
The shopkeeper brought Qi Xiao inside, whispered a few words in the ear of the subordinate, and then said to Qi Xiao: "Just tell the painter what painting the guest officer wants." ”
Qi Xiao nodded, and the shopkeeper said, "No one can look at the front, I'll go to the front first, and the painter will come later."
The shopkeeper finished speaking and left.
When Qi Xiao was strolling around the courtyard, a voice came from behind: "Do you want a portrait of the guest officer?"
As soon as Qi Xiao turned around and saw the painter, he was immediately stunned, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief: "Brother, why are you here?"
It turned out that this painter was the eldest son of the prime minister, and the prime minister divorced his original wife for his own status, did not want this son, and married the daughter of the former prime minister, which is why he is today.
Qi Xiao immediately walked up quickly, and when he wanted to hug him, he was pushed away by the painter: "It turned out to be the prime minister's son, and the grass people have lost their welcome."
Qi Xiao was stunned in place, and only spoke for a long time: "Brother, are you still the brother I know?" How did you? How is this so? What about the eldest mother? ”
The painter suddenly laughed and said, "Isn't it ridiculous to care now?" My mother was seriously ill, I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the middle of the night to beg for help, no one came out, and when I went home, my mother had already died. ”
When Qi Xiao heard this, he immediately asked, "When did the eldest lady leave?"
The painter said with a pained expression: "It's been more than a year since I passed away."
Qi Xiao also felt sad and said: "It's all my fault, I must not have been in the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time, otherwise I would definitely have gone to see the doctor."
The painter glanced at Qi Xiao, then looked at the sky and said, "What's the use of talking about this now?"
Qi Xiao took the painter's hand and said: "Brother, come and live in my mansion, my father is trapped in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I also told my father, as long as he asks me to do things that hurt heaven and reason, I will not recognize him, and I also have an official position now, I have my own mansion, you can come to my mansion." Qi Xiao looked at the painter sincerely.
The painter shook his head and said, "I have a house to live in, don't worry, you are here to paint a portrait, who to paint?"
Qi Xiao pointed to himself and said, "Draw me and give it to my wife."
When the painter heard this, he asked, "Are you married?"
Qi Xiao nodded: "Yes, my wife is 5 months pregnant, and I can go to see my brother when I give birth."
After listening to this, the hand in the sleeve was clenched into a fist, but he still smiled on the surface and said, "Come, start drawing, let my younger siblings see it as soon as possible."
Qi Xiao thought that the painter was not angry, so he happily asked, "How do I sit?"
The painter arranged the things and let Qi Xiao stand.
Qi Xiao asked, "Brother, are you still called Qi Tingyu?"
The painter began to write, shook his head and said: "I don't know the surname Qi, I now have my mother's surname, the surname Shi, my name is Shi Anping now, my mother took it, I hope I will be healthy and healthy all my life, okay, don't talk, start painting."
Qi Xiao nodded.
The two of them sat together for an afternoon, and it ended when it was almost dark.
Qi Xiao invited Shi Anping to Qi Mansion as a guest, but was refused.
Shi Anping arched his hand and said: "When the painting is ready, I will send it to the house in person."
Qi Xiao nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, I'll go first, Madame is still waiting for me to go back to eat."
Shi Anping looked at Qi Xiao's back and punched the wall, and the shopkeeper immediately ran over and said, "My ancestor, this hand is precious, be careful."
Shi Anping didn't say anything and packed up his things and left, and the shopkeeper scolded in the back: "If it weren't for your good painting, I wouldn't have invited you here."
Qi Xiao returned home very happily, and as soon as he arrived in the courtyard, he saw Qiyue sitting at the table over there waiting for Qi Xiao.
Qi Xiao immediately sat down and couldn't hide his happiness, Qiyue asked, "What happy thing did my husband encounter today?" Let's hear it. ”
Qi Xiao said, "I met my brother today."
Qiyue looked confused when she heard this, and asked, "The prime minister is not the only son of you, how can you have a son?"
Qi Xiao nodded and said: "My father had a wife and children before marrying my mother, this was only known when I was eight years old, my father took over my grandfather's position as prime minister because he married my mother, and the previous wife and son were not taken to the capital until I was 8 years old, my mother and I didn't know until they came, but the eldest lady is very good, she never sees me outside, and gives me everything first and then to my brother."
Qiyue laughed when she heard this: "It turns out that the prime minister is also such a person, why are men like this."
Qi Xiao immediately shook his head and said, "I won't be like this, Yue'er, don't worry."
Qiyue nodded with a smile and said, "Let's eat, I can bring my brother to the house for dinner when I have time."
Qi Xiao said: "Well, I said, my brother said that he would come when he was free in a few days."
Qiyue nodded, picked up the vegetables and began to eat.
Three days later, Shi Anping came to Qi Mansion with a framed portrait, and picked Qi Xiao to go to the palace when he was not in the mansion.
As soon as he arrived at the door, the doorman stopped Shi Anping and asked, "Who are you?" What to do in Qi Mansion? ”
Shi Anping smiled and said: "I am Shi Anping, and I came today to send Qi Xiao's portrait."
When the doorman heard this, he began to glare at Shi Anping and said, "Can you call my master by name?"
Shi Anping looked at the doorman with disdain: "You will know who I am when you go in and report it, go ahead."
At this time, Xiaolan was in the yard with Qiyue watering the flowers, and when she heard the movement at the door, she came to the gate of the house together, Xiaolan shouted: "Xiaoqian, who is at the door?"
Shi Anping saw a pregnant woman standing next to the person who spoke, probably knowing that it was Qi Xiao's wife, so he immediately went in regardless of the doorman and said, "You are my brother and sister?" I am Shi Anping, Qi Xiao's brother. ”
Qi Yue had been observing this person since just now, and his first feeling was not very good, and he immediately replied: "It turned out to be my brother, my husband has gone to the palace, do you have something to do with him?"
Shi Anping shook the portrait covered with cloth in his hand and said, "This is the portrait painted by Qi Xiao, I sent it today."
Qi Yue shouted with a smile: "Xiao Qian, you take the portrait to the master's study."
When Xiao Qian heard this, he ran over and stretched out his hand to pick it up, Shi Anping smiled and said, "Brother and sister, shouldn't you invite your brother to visit the house?"
Qiyue smiled and took a step forward and said: "Brother, it is the first time I have met you, if I take you to visit, it will be a lot of inconvenience, if you really want to visit, I can ask the next person to take you to the side hall to wait, and the husband will come back and take you to visit."
Shi Anping wanted to argue, but Qiyue had been by Ji Luyan's side for so many years, of course he understood how to deal with this kind of person, and then said: "I hope my brother remembers that my husband goes back to the house around noon every day, and the next time I come to the house, remember the time, I don't feel well, so I'll go back to the room first, Ah Fu, take my brother to the side hall."
