Chapter 30: Wasted Effort
Luo Mei had no choice but to say that Yu Panxi took him to the front hall, but on the way, Yu Panxi directly stopped a little guy and said to him: "Wait for my father to come back, I bother you to come and tell me, I will eat in the front hall." β
The little guy was puzzled by what she said, obviously the marquis was in the mansion, he was just about to speak, but he was interrupted by Luo Mei.
"What are you doing in a daze, don't hurry up and agree!"
The little guy didn't dare to say anything more, so he just answered and left in a hurry.
Luo Mei turned her head again as if nothing had happened, and said to Yu Panxi: "Let's go, let's go eat first." β
As a result, not long after sitting down in the front hall, the little guy he met before walked in and said that the Hou Ye asked Yu Panxi to go over.
Suddenly, Luo Mei's face became very ugly, and he smiled at Yu Panxi very reluctantly, and said, "I didn't expect Master Hou to come back so quickly." He said to the little servant again: "You go back to the Hou Ye, the dishes will be served immediately, and the young lady will go over after eating!" β
Yu Panxi said: "Since my father called me over, how can I go after dinner, it seems that I can't accompany my aunt to eat today." After she finished speaking, she stood up, apologized to her, and was about to go out.
Luo Mei didn't want her to see Xiao He at all, and even made up her mind in her heart, she didn't even tell Xiao He about Yu Panxi's coming today, and in a hurry, she directly grabbed Yu Panxi's hand, "What's there to worry about, your father will definitely not say anything!" β
Seeing her like this, the smile on Yu Panxi's face also turned a little colder, gently brushed away the hand she was holding herself, and said lightly: "Why doesn't my aunt want me to see my father?" β
Luo Mei was stunned, and immediately smiled: "How can this be, I ......"
She still wanted to speak, but Yu Panxi didn't want to listen to it at all, so she blessed her again, and then left with the little girl.
Only Luo Mei was so angry that he swept the teacup directly to the ground.
Yu Panxi followed the small temple all the way to Xiao He's study, and no one needed to report her, the little girl took her directly into the study.
After entering the door, Yu Panxi lowered her eyes and didn't look around, but raised her eyes slightly, and saw that Xiao He seemed to be writing on the desk on the side, so she immediately said, "My daughter-in-law came to ask my father for peace." β
Xiao He raised his eyes and glanced at her, the movements in his hands did not stop, and he snorted coldly: "I can't stand it." β
Seeing that he was still annoyed, Yu Panxi was not panicked, and still smiled: "Father, where is this, it is a matter of course for a daughter-in-law to come to ask his father for peace, how can my father not bear it?" β
Xiao He stopped the pen in his hand and looked up at her, "If you really have the heart, you should persuade Chu Mo to not let him leave the house, instead of packing up his things in a hurry than him!" Now I say these words again, but she is really a good daughter-in-law of my family! β
When he said this, Yu Panxi still didn't see a trace of anger, only lowered his head and said with an apologetic look: "It's all useless daughter-in-law, you can't persuade your husband, and you can't satisfy your father!" β
Xiao He snorted coldly again, "You are quite self-aware, since you can't satisfy me, why do you have to see me what to do?" β
It seems that he is not ignorant of what Luo Mei has done, but he does not mention it, obviously with partiality.
Yu Panxi said again: "Seeing that the New Year is approaching, my husband and I have prepared some gifts to honor my father, and I want to come to greet my father." β
Xiao He couldn't say that he was very satisfied, but his face softened slightly, and he continued: "Although you are from a small family, you grew up in the palace, and you know the rules better than ordinary young ladies. It is precisely because I value you that I want Chu Mo to marry you, what I want is that you can persuade Chu Mo well and accept his temperament. But since you entered the door, you have provoked trouble three times and twice, and even used the emperor to pressure us to deal with your sister, and even made Chu Mo and us centrifuge, you said it yourself, you can do your duty as a wife and daughter-in-law! β
Yu Panxi was a little speechless by what he said, not that he thought he was good, but that he didn't expect that he would push everything on himself, not only did he choose everything from Xiao Yuan'er, but everything became hers.
Just when she was still a little unbelievably unable to come back to her senses, Xiao Chumo actually walked in from outside the door, he glanced at Xiao He, and stepped forward to hug Yu Panxi's shoulder.
Seeing him coming, Xiao He immediately put up his father's shelf again, and said angrily: "Don't you even scream when you see your father?" β
Xiao Chumo said coldly: "You know what the truth of the matter is, but in order to protect your other daughter, you framed your daughter-in-law, and you still have words in your mouth!" You are my father, but you are the father of others! β
After he finished speaking, he took Yu Panxi's shoulders and walked out.
Yu Panxi wanted to say something several times but was glared back by him, so he had to shut his mouth and didn't dare to say anything more, so he just sat in the carriage with him silently all the way.
On the carriage, Xiao Chumo's face was gloomy, and he didn't look at it, obviously angry.
There is no need to ask him why he came over, Chu Lu was originally placed by his side, she ran to the Hou Mansion, Chu Lu would definitely be worried that something would happen, and went to tell Xiao Chumo.
Yu Panxi was a little at a loss for a while, and hesitated for a long time before saying: "I just don't want your relationship to continue to be so stiff, and there is indeed my reason in it." β
"It's none of your business!" Xiao Chumo said coldly, and then he also realized that his tone was too heavy, and softened his tone and said: "No matter what you do, he will not accept your affection, if you bow your head, it will only make him even worse!" β
Yu Panxi also saw from today's events that he was indeed right, so he had to sigh softly, "It's me who is too naΓ―ve to let you worry about me." β
Seeing her depressed appearance, Xiao Chumo couldn't bear it anymore, sat down beside her, took her into his arms, and said in a low voice: "I know your intentions, it is not easy to go to the Hou Mansion and meet Aunt Luo and my father Zhou Xuan, and I am also very moved in my heart." But I can't bear to see your efforts in vain. My father is not like this for a day or two, and now that I have left the Hou Mansion, the two of us will guard our own homes and live our own lives, and I am already very satisfied. β
Yu Panxi glanced at him, seeing that his expression was not a little reluctant, it could be seen that this was indeed the case in her heart, she had no choice but to nod, "Okay, then I'll listen to you, let's live our lives well, except for routine things in the future, I won't have much to do." β
Xiao Chumo gently kissed the top of her hair, "I have wronged you by letting you face such a family." β
Yu Panxi tightened his waist when he heard this, "What are you talking about, I am your wife, husband and wife are one, share honor and disgrace, what grievances are not wronged!" β
The expression on Xiao Chumo's face became softer and softer, he smiled lightly, and slowly tightened his arm around Yu Panxi, only feeling extremely satisfied in his heart, thinking that he had such a good wife and a warm home in the future, he already felt that he had nothing to ask for anymore.
