Chapter 22: Promise

Listening to the sound of Ming Guohou smashing things behind her, Yu Panxi glanced at Xiao Chumo, who was pulling her in front, the relationship between the two fathers and sons was really bad.

Xiao Chumo noticed her gaze and said lightly: "You don't have to worry, I've long been used to it." To him, I have always been a rebel, and he never asks the reason for big or small things, but only beats and scolds me. ”

He turned his head to look at Yu Panxi, "But I'm no longer the child who gives a piece of candy and will be obedient and needs his father's attention and approval, their things, I'm not rare!" ”

Looking at his appearance, it was hard for Yu Panxi to imagine what kind of things he had experienced to be so disappointed in Ming Guohou and this family, and even desperate.

But it didn't matter, she stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Chumo's forehead arm and said, "No matter what decision you make, I will support you!" ”

Xiao Chumo looked at him, the expression on his face softened a little, smiled at her, took her hand and continued to walk forward.

The military affairs were busy, Xiao Chumo couldn't stay at home for a long time, so he only sent Yu Panxi back to the room and went to work.

As soon as he walked on his front foot, someone came from the yard on his back foot.

It was Luo Mei who came, no matter how happy she was in her heart, but she always had to do enough in her face, and it was she who came to persuade her.

"Panxi, you are a good boy, but you have to persuade Chu Mo well. Even if you don't feel happy in your heart, you can't be angry with your family, you have to know that if this spreads, Chu Mo's reputation will be completely ruined! She took Yu Panxi's hand, looking bitter.

Yu Panxi looked at her like this, rolling her eyes in her heart, but on the surface, she looked embarrassed, "Mother, you also know your husband's temper, once you decide something, the three cows can't pull it back, how can he listen to me." ”

Luo Mei looked at her submissive appearance, and was very satisfied in her heart, but her face was even more painful: "I know, I am not Chu Mo's biological mother, and many things don't work." But I have always regarded Chu Mo as my biological child, but he refused to accept me, saying that it was difficult to be a stepmother, and I was also bitter in my heart! ”

Yu Panxi also felt sad on her face, but secretly gritted her teeth, this woman is not very good at other means, pretending to be pitiful is really a good hand, she has to admire.

Luo Mei continued to cry again: "For so many years, I don't ask for anything else, I just hope that my children can be well, Chu Mo has become a family, I can't say how happy I am." But who knew that such a thing happened, I really hope you are good, Panxi, you can help me persuade Chu Mo, they are all a family, what can't be said well, you have to make it like this! ”

"I understand my mother's hard work, and I don't want things to be like this, to make you sad and my father angry." Yu Panxi also touched the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief as he spoke, "Didn't I just say a few words to my husband, he scolded me fiercely, and said that if I dare to talk more, I will be divorced!" Mother, I was so scared of the angry look he had. ”

Luo Mei was stunned by her like this, pinching the handkerchief and not knowing whether to cry or persuade for a while.

"Mother, you say, will he really divorce me?" Yu Panxi hugged Luo Mei's arm, looking like she was grasping a life-saving straw, "Mother, you have to help me!" ”

This made Luo Mei bad and continued to pretend to be a loving mother, pretending to be pitiful, and smiled dryly, "How could he listen to me!" ”

"Mother, you can help me, I am also for this family." Yu Panxi stuck to her and didn't let go.

Luo Mei was upset by her, comforted her indiscriminately, and slipped away with oil on the soles of her feet, for fear that Yu Panxi would be entangled.

After Yu Panxi and the others left, she sat up straight and snorted coldly, pretending to be pitiful that she would too, she would be more powerful than anyone!

After Luo Mei went back, he naturally added fuel and vinegar to tell Ming Guohou about these things, naturally saying how weak Yu Panxi was and how domineering Xiao Chumo was.

Ming Guohou was even more furious when he heard this, and scolded several times in a row!

Turning his head, Luo Mei spread these things, and the next day, everyone heard that in the afternoon of the same day, Xiao Chumo had to force the old marquis to split up, and the old marquis was so angry that he went straight away.

This also led to the fact that when he went to court the next day, Xiao Chumo had not yet mentioned this matter, and a Yanguan directly joined him in front of Mo Baozhou, saying that he was very unfilial, a son of man in vain, and unworthy of being a minister.

At this time, the border war had just ended, Mo Baozhou still valued Xiao Chumo a few times, and did not have any suspicions, and after listening to the words of the official, he didn't have many emotional ups and downs, just looked at Xiao Chumo and asked, "Xiao Qing, is this really the case?" ”

Xiao Chumo stood up and said without humility or arrogance: "Back to the emperor, the minister really wants to move out of the Hou Mansion and find another house. ”

"You must know that the most important thing in my dynasty is filial piety, your parents are still alive, and it is unfilial piety to separate the family!" Mo Baozhou's voice was a little colder.

Xiao Chumo's voice was still calm, "Your Majesty, the minister's biological mother died as early as when the minister was young, and the minister has a stubborn temperament, is not loved by his father, and has not received much attention since he was a child. The minister knew that he was not the material to inherit the title, so he joined the army and worked hard to get his current official position. ”

He uncovered his bottom in the court, and said that he would not inherit the title, but the ministers still looked at each other and began to discuss.

"Do you know what you're talking about, don't you really want the title of Marquis of Ming?" Mo Baozhou was also a little surprised, looked at him and asked.

Xiao Chumo nodded, "The minister really has no intention of being knighted. He paused and said, "Besides, the minister is already a third-grade official in the court, and he should have his own mansion." Since you don't inherit the title, there is nothing unreasonable about moving out and standing on your own. ”

"What do you think?" Mo Baozhou swept around the crowd and said.

The ministers talked a lot, some said that they couldn't, and some said that it was really understandable, and in the end, it should be Mo Baozhou who made a decision and said: "Since you have no intention of being knighted, this fame is also earned by yourself, and it has nothing to do with the Hou Mansion, then be your general, I will help you see what suitable house there is, and I will give it to you." ”

Xiao Chumo hurriedly said: "There is no need to trouble the emperor for such trivial matters, the minister has now found a house, and he will move in by himself." ”

Mo Baozhou hooked his lips and smiled, "That's okay, I will reward you with some other things to enrich the house." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xiao Chumo said loudly.

What happened in the early morning was transmitted back to the Hou Mansion, and Ming Guohou was really almost stunned this time. Of course, compared with the emperor agreeing to Xiao Chumo to let him set up his own door, what made him even more angry was that Xiao Chumo exposed his old bottom in front of so many people, which made him feel that he had lost face, and he just wanted to beat Xiao Chumo to get angry.

Xiao Chumo didn't even pay attention to him at all, and began to prepare for the move that day, in order to hide from Qingjing, he took Yu Panxi to see the house he bought in the afternoon.
