Xue Qing saw the champion parade on the street, and then returned to the Taifu Mansion to serve Mrs. Xue. These days, Mrs. Xue's illness is even worse.

I used a lot of precious medicinal herbs given by the Holy Lord, but I still couldn't make my condition better. Taifu worries about Mrs. Xue every day, so he takes the time to accompany her. When Xue Qing passed, he was watching his father talk with his mother.

"How? Your brother must be very lively when he crosses the horse and parades the streets! ”

After Xue Qing entered the door, he cleaned his hands before coming to Mrs. Xue. She did not snuggle up to Mrs. Xue coquettishly, but obediently took the decoction in Mama Fu's hand and fed Mrs. Xue little by little.

"Qing'er has grown up." Mrs. Xue looked at her daughter, who had raised her stature, and felt very relieved.

"yes, I'm eleven years old this year!" Mrs. Xue nodded, very satisfied with her daughter's well-behavedness.

"The day before yesterday, the saint chatted with his father and asked about your family. He still wants to make you and King Rui a pair. ”

"How can that be?" Xue Qing was a little anxious when she heard this, she didn't want to marry King Rui.

"Don't worry! Daddy knows you don't want to marry a royal family. You have a very wild temperament, and you don't know how many things you will have to cause your father and mother when the time comes! Daddy and the saint recommended your sister Lan'er. ”

Mrs. Xue and Xue Qing were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then regained their composure. Mrs. Xue asked tentatively:

"Lan'er is a concubine, how can she be worthy of King Rui as a concubine?"

"It's okay, the saint has promised to invite our family to the Qionglin banquet, and when the time comes, I will see Lan'er with my own eyes, and if I like it, I will give the marriage on the spot."

"Daddy wants to take his concubine into the palace to participate in the Qionglin banquet?" Xue Qing looked at Mrs. Xue with a look of disbelief.

"Qing'er, this is a holy charter."

Seeing Xue Qing's fierce performance, Mrs. Xue couldn't hold her face a little.

"Daddy asked for it! What conditions did Daddy ask for? Is my mother sick? Or ......"

"Qing'er, you are presumptuous."

"Presumptuous? Daddy begged the saint to let a concubine go to the Qionglin banquet, did you take my mother to heart and my brother Tanhua's face to heart? ”

Xue Qingtong looked at Mrs. Xue with red eyes, she knew that this person was a loving father, but this father was not just hers.

Looking at her mother's increasingly thin face, she still didn't understand anything.

"Qing'er, you have never cared about any dignity and humility, and naturally you don't care about any concubines, why are you so rude today!"

"I don't care about my sisters, that's because I don't want to be prejudiced against other people's origins. However, I care more about my mother's and brother's feelings.

When you take that concubine to the Qionglin banquet, you will slap your mother's face, your brother's face, or even my face. ”

"Qing'er?"

Xue Taifu didn't expect that Xue Qing would be the most opposed of all people.

The Qing'er he knows can have a lot of fun with the little girls of other families, and he is never prejudiced against anyone, and even the peasants can talk to others.

If his father insists on this, Qing'er naturally has no right to interfere. Just ask my father to leave and arrange it by himself! Qing'er won't go today. ”

Xue Qing would never appear at the Qionglin Banquet with that concubine. She bowed down to give a salute to Mrs. Xue, her hands stretched out, and her attitude was very obvious, this was giving Mrs. Xue an eviction order.

Mrs. Xue left, and Xue Qing looked at her complaining mother and did not speak. Silently gave her mother a kiss on her back, and she was silent for a long time and said:

"Mother, my brother and I have taken a fancy to a house in Beijing, which is not very big, but it is very warm. After the Qionglin feast, let's move over! ”

"Qing'er, what do you mean?"

Mrs. Xue looked at Xue Qing puzzled, was she going to cut off relations with the Xue family? Xue Qing couldn't bear to look at her mother's expression of disbelief, and said slowly:

"My brother and I have been planning this for a long time. We are worried that someone in the house is responsible for your illness.

In addition, there is a Xue An in Taifu's mansion, and his father will also plan for him in the future. It's like he's planning for Xue Lan now.

The eldest brother is now an official in the court, although the official position is not high, but he also has a fortune. The business of the Splendid Pavilion is making money day by day, and we can live well without relying on the Taifu Mansion. ”

"Qing'er, don't you want your father?" Mrs. Xue looked at Xue Qing painfully, not expecting that it would be this daughter who would tell her this.

"Your father has been running around for you for ten years, begging for medicine everywhere, and pampering you, have you forgotten?"

"Mother, Daddy's kindness to Qing'er Qing'er is unforgettable, it's just a mother, Qing'er has to take care of your life!"

"There is an Aunt Wen who calculates everywhere in this house, and there is an Aunt Wen who likes to ponder poisons, my eldest brother and I dare not bet!"

"You're all older, you can do it yourself!" Mrs. Xue leaned on the bed weakly, she didn't have no doubts, but she didn't dare to admit it.

"Mother, don't worry, Xue Lan is from the Taifu Mansion after all, I will send someone to send her the most decent clothes and jewelry, so that she can shine at the Qionglin banquet.

It's just that after this time, what my brother and I are going to do, my father is afraid that he can't stop it. ”

Here, Xue Qing did what he said, and gave Xue Lan the most immortal set of women's dresses in the Splendid Pavilion, and the size was also made according to Xue Lan.

Mrs. Xue nodded when she saw it, thinking in her heart that this girl said that she was not allowed, but she was still worried about it.

It's just that Mrs. Xue didn't expect that Xue Qing really didn't go to the Qionglin banquet, but accompanied Mrs. Xue at home.

The saint saw Xue Lan at the banquet, and he had no intention of marrying Xue Lan at all. Xue Taifu knew that the saint was still thinking about Xue Qing.

Although Xue Lan did not enter the eyes of the royal family, she received a lot of attention at the Qionglin banquet. Within two days, many people came to Taifu's mansion to propose.

At this moment, Xue Yu and Xue Qing came to Taifu's study, ready to have a showdown with Taifu. Both of them are very calm, they don't want their father to lose face, but they want to keep their mother's life even more.

Throughout the afternoon, the two of them chatted with Mrs. Xue for a whole afternoon. In the end, a long carriage moved all that Mrs. Xue and Xue Qing had to a small courtyard with four entrances.

"Mother, my father will also come to see you. You can recuperate here with peace of mind, we are here.

My daughter saw that there are still many empty courtyards here that no one buys, and if the eldest brother marries a wife in the future, we can buy the surrounding courtyards. ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Mrs. Xue went to rest, Xue Qing let Cheng and Yangyang pack up their things, and went to their residence, the current conditions are not as good as in Taifu's Mansion, but she is not afraid, as long as she makes good money, she can have as much place as she wants in the future.

Zhang Luo's residence and Xue Yu's residence were together, but he didn't have anything to clean up and wandered around the courtyard.

Suddenly, his ears moved and he flew onto the roof. But he saw two young men with large swords on their backs come to him.

"Senior brother?"

Zhang Luo was stunned, he didn't expect to see the two senior brothers here.

These two senior brothers are Han Shibo's apprentices, and they have learned knives with him since childhood. I just don't know what they are doing in such a hurry.

"Young master." The two of them hugged their fists at Zhang Luo, and that attitude made Zhang Luo stunned.

"The master of the door has gone mad and is in danger, so Master asked us to ask you to go back."
