Chapter 36: Blame
Zhang Xuan taught for less than a quarter of an hour, and found that this sister was very intelligent, and she could draw inferences from everything he said, and she had a great sense of accomplishment for a while.
At this time, the sun gradually rose, Zhang Qi studied for a while, blessed Zhang Xuan, crisply, and said carefully: "Brother, it's not early, Ah Qi has to go to the school." ”
Her big eyes blinked at Zhang Xuan, her expression was so careful.
Zhang Xuan was reminded by her, only to find that it was not too early, and he had actually taught a little girl to teach for so long? He smiled, reached out and touched Zhang Qi's head, and said, "Then you go." ”
Zhang Qi answered, turned around and left.
As she walked, she turned back timidly and looked at Zhang Xuan vividly, "Brother, can I come to see you in the future?" ”
Zhang Xuan stood up.
He walked up to her, reached out and stroked her face, and said softly, "Why not?" Ah Qi is my own sister, and she can come to me at any time. ”
Zhang Qixi smiled, her little face bloomed like a spring flower, she squinted sweetly and happily and called, "Brother is not allowed to rely on it!" In Zhang Xuan's laughter, she waved at him and said happily, "Then I'll go." When she turned, she reached down and covered her forehead, covering most of her eyes.
With a cover on her forehead and a block of her eyes, the sister-in-law, who was still smart and delicate just now, suddenly became mediocre and inconspicuous. Zhang Xuan didn't expect her to have this ability, he was shocked at first, and then he thought of her intelligence when she was learning poetry just now, and immediately understood.
He laughed, winked at her, and whispered, "Ah Qi is so smart. On Zhang Qi's smug smile, he was in a very happy mood.
Walking out of the pavilion, the sun was already shining. At this hour, I don't know how many handmaidens have come and gone. Thinking about those maidservants, they saw her with Zhang Xuan.
But when the brothers and sisters get together, what if they see it?
As he walked, Zhang Qi turned his head and looked at Zhang Xuan standing on the pavilion in the distance.
I feel like a brother, is that it?
At this time, a voice called: "Zhang Qi? ”
Zhang Qi looked back.
The person who called her was the big maid Ah Xiang next to Zhang Xiao's side. As soon as he saw her, Zhang Qi's heart sank, and he hurriedly blessed him, and timidly called: "Sister Ah Xiang." ”
The corners of Ah Xiang's mouth twitched, "Ah Qi is a sister-in-law, and you can't call a maid to be a sister." After a pause, she said solemnly, "Madame has something to ask you, please." ”
"Yes."
Following Ah Xiang, the excitement that Zhang Qi had just received from Zhang Xuan's love had disappeared. She looked down at her toes and thought uneasily, "What is Madame looking for me?"
In the quiet, the two soon came to Zhang Xiao's courtyard. Taking a step back, Ah Xiang said, "Madame is inside, you can go in." ”
"Yes."
Zhang Qi tiptoed in.
In the hall, two maidservants stood quietly in the corner, and Zhang Xiao was looking through a few letters. Seeing Zhang Qi come in, Zhang Xiao put down the letter and looked up, "Zhang Qi." ”
"Yes."
"The night before yesterday, you went to the Xiao Mansion with Ah Jin?"
"Yes." As soon as Zhang Qi finished speaking this time, he immediately fell to his knees with a thud, and said in a trembling voice: "Madam, Ah Qi has no ......"
Zhang Xiao's eyes stared at her quietly, waiting for her to continue.
Zhang Qi said in a panic, "Ah Qi has no other thoughts, when Sister Jin asked Ah Qi to go, she didn't say anything." ”
"Something else? What else is in mind? ”
Zhang Xiao's voice was faint, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.
Zhang Qi lowered her head, her face turned white with fear, and she said in a whisper: "Ah Qi didn't think about Xiao Lang...... Ah Qi would not have such a non-part thought. ”
Zhang Xiao sighed, and his tone was still extremely calm, "You mean, Ah Jin took you to Xiao Mansion because you like Xiao Lang?" ”
Zhang Qi bit her lip, fell to the ground on her forehead, and did not answer, but her expression was clearly admitted.
Zhang Xiaoshi stared at her.
At this time, a servant girl stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Ah Lan said that Sister Jin took this Ah Qi to send her to Xiao Lang." ”
Zhang Xiao's face sank: His daughter is so eager to please a Langjun, and she has not yet passed the door, so she took the initiative to help the other party send a woman, which is really unlucky!
With a wave of his hand, he motioned for the maid to stand back, and Zhang Xiao stared at Zhang Qi again.
Her own daughter, she knows, has always been arrogant, and she has always disliked this Ah Qi. took Ah Qi to Xiao Mansion the night before, and there must be no kindness.
It's just that she didn't know that her daughter was so deep. In order to please Amo, even this kind of thing was done!
After being angry for a while, Zhang Xiao remembered the purpose of calling Zhang Qi to come, and he was about to open his mouth.
At this time, Ah Xiang's voice came from outside, "Madam, Xiao Lang is here." ”
Xiao Mo is here?
Zhang Qi was taken aback.
Zhang Xiao withdrew his gaze from staring at Zhang Qi, "Stand up and step aside." ”
"Yes."
Zhang Qi stood up and stepped aside as he said.
As soon as she stood still, the door opened, a gust of wind blew, and a long figure appeared in Zhang Qi's field of vision.
Xiao Mo is here.
As soon as Xiao Mo entered the door, his eyes were condensed: Zhang Qi is actually here!
His eyes flashed, his gentle and handsome face turned to Zhang Xiao, and saluted her, Xiao Mo respectfully called, "Ah Mo has seen it."
Ten aunts. ”
Zhang Xiao didn't say anything, his aunt, who had always been kind and gentle to him, had a calm face at this moment, and her expression was quite unkind.
Xiao Mo looked at his nose and nose, and stood quietly in the hall, waiting for Zhang Xiao to speak.
After a long time, Zhang Xiao snorted heavily, she pursed her lips, and said unhappily: "Ah Mo, do you like my Ah Jin?" ”
Xiao Mo smiled and replied respectfully: "Cousin Ah Jin is beautiful and cute, Ah Mo likes it." ”
Zhang Xiao snorted coldly again, and she asked coldly with a tiger face, "Then are you willing to marry her?" ”
Xiao Mo smiled again, still respectfully and politely replied: "Aunt forgot, what a big deal this marriage is, how can it be decided by Ah Mo on his own?" ”
"Slap-" With a bang, Zhang Xiao slapped heavily on the table next to her, and she shouted with a tiger face: "You don't dare to make your own decisions? You don't dare to call the shots, but you dare to tease your own cousin? Xiao Shi Mo, you are so bold! ”
Xiao Mo's eyes widened, looking at Zhang Xiao in surprise, he frowned, and replied solemnly: "Auntie's words are wrong, Ah Mo and his cousin have grown up together, when have they ever flirted?" ”
Xiao Mo is a dignified person, and Zhang Xiao knows it. When he said this, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but be stunned. She looked at Xiao Mo with a serious face and wondered: Could it be that Ah Lan misunderstood?
Her daughter has liked this cousin since she was a child, and this is also known to Zhang Xiao. In the past, she thought that when they grew up, she would talk about this family business. But who knew that her mother-in-law, who was also from the Xiao family, the eldest lady of the Zhang family, suddenly ordered that the sisters-in-law were not allowed to approach Xiao Mo?
She really doesn't understand, where can't this family get married?
Zhang Xiao glared at Xiao Mo for a while, and when he saw that he was straight, he sighed secretly, but he didn't want to blame this nephew too much.
At this moment, Zhang Xiao heard Xiao Mo's sincere voice coming, "Auntie, I heard that Sister Jin was sent to the ancestral hall?" Amo is willing to go and plead with his aunt. ”
Xiao Mo went to intercede?
Zhang Xiao's heart moved, she clearly knew how angry her mother-in-law was this time, perhaps, it was a good idea for Xiao Mo to come forward.
Nodding, she said softly, "It's okay." ”
Seeing that she agreed, Xiao Mo smiled and said respectfully, "Then Amo will go first." After a pause, he glanced at Zhang Qi, who was standing in the corner, extremely inconspicuous, and said to Zhang Xiao's again: "When Cousin Jin took Ah Qi to my house the day before yesterday, he said something that I haven't figured out. It's rare to see each other, aunt, I want to talk to Ah Qi, and she will take me to my aunt and grandmother by the way. ”
