Chapter Forty-Eight: The Devil Is Tall

Tong Baiyi smiled: "What does the elder brother have to tell the younger brother?" ”

"What can you do to save the lives of those people outside the door and get me out?"

"What's so hard about that? In the past two days, I have come to my brother to consult with me about the affairs of the department, and my father will not stop me from seeing that our two brothers are so diligent and studious, and I will have a sudden intestinal disease in three days, and I will not stop repeating it, and when my brother accompanies me again to solve the emergency, I will change into the clothes of the domestic servant I prepared for you in advance, and pretend to be a servant to go out of the house to do errands. As for those people, my father was just talking, and when the wood was ready, what if my father killed them? Brother should think about how to persuade Xiao'er. ”

Tong Fengyi didn't understand that Tong Baiyi wanted him to anger his father and lose power from then on, but now he has no time to take care of anything else, so he can only borrow Tong Baiyi's power for the time being, and then think about it in the long run after getting out......

Although the reason for Xin Daiyi's succession is unknown, and no outsiders will participate in the succession ceremony, but after all, the succession is a family event, and the etiquette rules need to be practiced by Xin Daiyi and Xin Lan in advance, and under Qiu Jiyuan's order, the two returned to Xinfu ten days in advance to prepare for related matters. Qiu Zeyuan originally objected to the two of them returning home, fearing that Xin Daiyuan would have an accident if no one took care of her, but Qiu Jiyuan's sentence "I won't let that slut die at this time, and let her dirty blood stain the auspicious day of Dai Dai's succession." It was difficult for Qiu Zeyuan to accept it, but he also felt relieved, no matter whether his father hated Xun or not, at least he would not take Xun Xun's life during this period.

On the sixth day of the eighth month, Tong Fengyi and Tong Baiyi's plan went smoothly, so smoothly that Tong Fengyi walked out of Tong's Mansion without encountering any guards in the mansion, and then successfully found a rickshaw and came to Xinfu smoothly.

Xin Zhaoxun had been reactivated, and he had not returned from discussing important military and political affairs with Qiu Jiyuan in the Overseer Bureau, Xin Lan's clan saw Tong Fengyi's late night visit, and asked in surprise: "Feng Yi, aren't you sick and inconvenient to see people?" How to ......"

Xin Lanshi looked at Tong Fengyi's strange clothes, and then looked at his clear and neat face, puzzled why Tong Guangting said that his son was infected with rash and could not show it, but before he could ask the reason, he heard Tong Fengyi ask: "Aunt Xin, where is Xiao'er?" ”

"Child? It's also strange to say, today Shen Shi'er hurriedly went out of the house, didn't say where to go and didn't let anyone follow, and I haven't come back until now, I have just sent someone to look for it. Do you have something to do with her? ”

If you want Xin Daiyi to die in vain because of your reckless behavior, just go out of the house......

To love her is to deprive her of the right to live in this world, is this to love her......

You should know if I'm scaring you or if I'm really going to do it......

Reckless ...... Innocent death......

Love her......

You should know...... I really do......

Father's words were repeated over and over again, endlessly echoing in Tong Fengyi's mind, shaking him dizzy and frightened, he suddenly turned around and ran out, but he was tripped by the trouser leg that didn't fit well, and fell to the ground with a bang......

Wait for me, wait for me, please wait for me, please wait for me......

A quarter-hour drive from Xinfu to Tongfu, Tong Fengyi, who was wearing ill-fitting clothes, ran out with his feet, his embarrassment can be imagined, he is such an "unrecognizable" "subordinate", he rushed to the main gate of Tongfu like crazy and wanted to trespass, but no one stopped him! Tong Fengyi broke into Tong Guangting's study like this.

"Father!" Tong Fengyi didn't come up in one breath after pushing open the door, and threw himself on the ground.

"Yikes!" Tong Fengyi heard a woman's exclamation when his consciousness drifted.

That woman is Tong Fengyi's heart and mind Xin Daiyi, Xin Daiyi was invited to a small restaurant in the west of the city by Mao'er, a little woman who had a relationship and a meal in the past.

Although Mao'er rescued Xin Daiyu back then, after all, she didn't have any skills to make a living, and she was in the dust soon after. Three days ago, she "accidentally" knew Tong Guangting, and arranged her to do some odd jobs in the Financial Department, and then Mao'er "accidentally" learned from Tong Baiyi that it was the second miss of the Xin family who rescued her, and she should be a person who should know the kindness, so Mao'er sent a message to Xin Daiyi with the help of Tong Baiyi and asked her to meet. Later, Tong Guangting "encountered" the two in the west of the city and invited the two to Tong's Mansion for hospitality. Xin Daiyi originally saw that it was getting late and wanted to resign, but she couldn't help Tong Guangting to "stay" again and again, so she accompanied Tong Guangting to enjoy poetry and painting, until Tong Fengyi broke in......

Xin Daiyi was startled by the unkempt man on the ground, and heard him seem to be muttering to her father, so she boldly took a few steps forward, and when she saw this person's face clearly, she couldn't help but exclaim: "Brother Feng Yi?!" ”

"Brother Feng Yi, what's wrong? How did you become like this? Xin Daiyi picked up the panting Tong Fengyi and sat him down.

Although Tong Fengyi no longer has half of his strength, his thoughts are getting clearer and clearer, from the moment his father locked him in the room three days ago, Tong Baiyi came to him, and the play that accompanied him in the past three days to his unusually smooth arrival in Xinfu today was deliberately arranged by his father and Tong Baiyi, in order to make him clearly understand one thing: his father can ask Xiao'er to disappear from his sight anytime and anywhere, this time his father can ask Xiao'er to appreciate poetry and painting, and next time he can directly ask for her life.

Tong Fengyi drank six glasses of water in a row, and gasped for a long time, and after a while, he said to Xin Daiyi: "Father asked me to run a few laps to practice my body, saying that the illness on my body would go away faster, so I ran from here to your house and ran back from your house." ”

"And what are you doing in your clothes?" Xin Daiyi pointed to his dirty clothes and pants.

Tong Fengyi tried to squeeze out a smile and said, "Father wants me to take this opportunity to experience their hard work on weekdays. ”

"Xiao'er, you go back to the house first...... Don't ......" Tong Fengyi said and looked at his father again, "Father, can I send Xiao'er home first?" ”

Tong Guangting glanced at his son deeply and said with a smile: "You should be tired after running for a long time, just let the driver send it, Xiao'er, what do you say?" ”

"Uncle is right, Brother Feng Yi, you change your clothes, wash and sleep, and let someone else send me."

Tong Fengyi knew that his father still didn't believe him, and he was afraid that he would say something to Xiao'er on the road, so he smiled bitterly: "Then Xiao'er, be careful on the road, stay at home tomorrow, and prepare for the succession ceremony the day after tomorrow......"

I'm sorry for you, but between your happiness and your life, I can only choose your life......

Xin Daiyi always felt that there was something strange about today's affairs, but Tong Fengyi must have said this for a reason, and it was inconvenient for her to ask more, so she could only leave first.

Tong Fengyi watched Xin Daiyi's figure disappear from his field of vision little by little, until finally he couldn't even see the shadow, he turned around, Tong Guangting came over and closed the door of the study, and was just about to open his mouth when he heard his son say: "Father, your old plan really makes the child bow down." I'll go back to my room, and I won't take a step out of the house until I join the ceremony. ”

After speaking, he opened the door and walked out without waiting for Tong Guangting to speak, Tong Guangting saw his son walk back to his room, and loudly called someone to bring wine, knowing that he was really ready to give up Xin Daiyi, and his heart that had been hanging for a few days fell to the ground slightly, and after the day after tomorrow, he could really sit back and relax, quietly watch his son get married, give birth to children, and then hand over the family business to him......

Dai Wei did not change her name at Qiu Zeyuan's insistence, and changed her surname from Nan Congcao with the names of her six sisters, but changed her surname and became Qiu Daiyi, the seventh lady of the Qiu family. Qiu Jiyuan gave Qiu Daiyu one hundred taels of gold, fifty taels of silver, and ten jades after the succession ceremony, and even handed over the ancestral ruby night pearl and garnet night pearl to her, you must know that these two night pearls are the treasures of eight hundred years ago, and the overseers of the past dynasties will only pass on to their successors.

Tong Fengyi and He Yanjun's wedding date was also set, on December 12.

Everything seems to have settled down, the tulip flowers have fallen, the maple forest is dyed red, the snow is dancing and frosting, and it is the winter solstice in a blink of an eye.

Since Qiu Dai entered the mansion, Qiu Min has gradually handed over the affairs of the mansion to her to take care of, and the Winter Solstice Festival is no exception. The ancients said: The winter solstice is equal to the beginning of the year. It was the first time for her to host such an important festival, and she was even more excited when she was nervous, always wanting to come up with some new ideas to add some other fun to everyone. Therefore, in addition to arranging the ceremony of worshipping the heavens and worshipping the ancestors and the banquet after that, Qiu Daiyi added the pot throwing and chanting poems to the feast and drink, and everyone rested and entertained. The rules are very simple, men and women in pairs, men throw pots, those who win can ask others to chant a poem, and those who do not win will be chanted by the same group of women, and the poem must be related to the winter solstice.

In addition to Xin Lan's taking care of Dai Xun in the eastern suburbs, Qiu Tong Xin's three families all went to the Overseer's Mansion to attend a banquet after worshipping their ancestors, Qiu Jiyuan was generous, and still allowed Dai to call Xin Zhaoxun's father, so in the eyes of outsiders, Dai Yi is no different from marrying the Qiu family, but there are thousands of tastes, only Dai Yi herself knows ...... But this is also her own choice, she looked at Qiu Zeyuan, for the sake of this man, even if he has no surname and loses his dignity, what about it?

Tong Fengyi looked at Dai Wei, he could feel the complicated feeling of her heart dripping with blood but falling into the honey pot, but he could no longer stand by her side and make her happy......

Tong Baiyi looked at Qiu Zeyuan who was wandering in the world, looked at Qiu Daiyi who was Qiu Zeyuan, and then looked at Tong Fengyi who was Qiu Daiyuan, and sneered in his heart, this is what you sent to the door yourself......

"Dai Wei, you did a very good job this Winter Solstice Festival, orderly, well-behaved, and with you sitting in the Overseer's Mansion, Zeyuan will be able to worry about the front line in the future." Qiu Jiyuan praised.
