Ling Mofeng looked at Xiao Qi with deep meaning, and laughed loudly: "My county office, don't you just enter if you want to, and you can go out if you want, and you still need me to invite you?" ”

Xiao Qi's eyes were quiet, and he said seriously: "If the adults don't invite each other, how dare I enter the county government court, villains." ”

looked at each other and smiled, and the two sides were clear.

Liu Qingyan maintained a bowed head and smiled lightly, and a look of confusion quickly flashed in her eyes.

The officials over there lined up and waited, and everyone boarded the car and returned to the county government without mentioning it.

Ling Mofeng handled things neatly, and immediately after returning to the county office, he was promoted to the court, and sentenced the Guo family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to 20 canes each, and went home to treat their injuries by themselves.

The thunderbolt snapped down, and Mrs. Guo could only hum, Mrs. Guo Laiwang was younger and could still walk.

After retreating, Ling, Xiao, and Liu went to the flower hall to talk.

After the main and secondary seats were settled, the servant came to serve tea, and Ling Mofeng waved his hand to signal him to step down, and then raised the question in his and Xiao Qi's hearts, "Miss Liu, why did you have a feud with the Guo family?" ”

Liu Qingyan's expression was calm, and she smiled faintly: "Before the adults came to Yuxi County, our two families were still married in-laws. ”

Ling and Xiao glanced at each other, and their doubts were even worse.

Liu Qingyan glanced at the two, got up slowly, and once again brought up the past of the grievances and disputes.

She spoke eloquently, in a plain tone, neither exaggerating nor hiding, only telling the facts as they were.

Xu is Guo family's behavior is really outrageous, as soon as the words fell, Ling Mofeng rose up, with an angry look on his face, and said in an impassioned tone: "This Guo family is really hateful, if it is committed in my hands in the future, it must be punished heavily." ”

Xiao Qi stared at her, and said in a soft and gentle tone: "So you went to Ruyi Building to sell vegetables to reduce your sentence for raising money?" ”

He still remembered the first time they met, and her rejecting appearance was thousands of miles away, and it turned out that the family had suffered such a huge change.

Liu Qingyan looked at him and smiled sadly, and said, "Yes." ”

Xiao Qi saw that her eyebrows were gloomy, and tears appeared in her eyes, only to feel that her heart was broken, and he wanted to take her into his arms and comfort her softly. Tell her that from now on he will always be behind her and be her strong backup.

But when she thought that there was someone beside her to protect her, the sour feeling in her heart flooded, and she couldn't help but feel sad.

"Lord Ling." Liu Qingyan suddenly knelt down straight at Ling Mofeng, and said euphemistically: "The folk girl has something to ask for, I don't know if the adult can agree?" ”

Ling Mofeng was stunned for a moment, and wanted to step forward to help him up in person, but when he saw Xiao Qi with a gloomy face on the side, he only raised his hand and helped him, and said, "Miss Liu, please speak up if you have something, I will do my best if I can do it." ”

Liu Qingyan pursed her lips lightly, and said in a calm tone: "Please help find out where the third uncle of the people's daughter is serving hard labor, whether it is life or death, the people's daughter will definitely repay in the future." ”

If I don't agree, the person next to me will not be allowed to turn his face against me.

Ling Mofeng sneered, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said briskly: "Miss Liu, please get up quickly, this is a trivial matter, and the girl really doesn't have to be like this." ”

"Thank you, sir." Liu Qingyan's face was happy, her eyes were crystal clear, and she bowed down and kowtowed before standing up.

Ling Mofeng looked at Xiao Qi with meaningful eyes, and his meaning was self-evident: I do my best for your affairs, and I am enough friends!

Xiao Qi understood, with a smile on the corner of his lips, and got up and said: "Seeing that it's lunch time, I'll be the east today, can I go up and down my Ruyi Building in the yamen for a light meal?" ”

Xiao Qi stroked his palms and laughed, and said: "This idea is very good, usually if you want to go to Ruyi Lou to eat, you have to make a reservation in advance, but today there is an owner, you can eat with an open belly." ”

Xiao Qi teased: "It is said that you usually go to eat and book a seat in advance." ”

Ling Mofeng laughed and said no more.

At that moment, except for a few people on duty left behind in the yamen, the rest of the people changed into civilian clothes and went to Ruyi Lou together.

The lunch was enjoyed by the guests and the hosts, and after they were full of wine and food, the officials supported each other and returned to the county office.

Ling, Xiao, and Liu went home after saying goodbye at the door.

Xiao Qi watched Liu Qingyan's carriage leave, and suddenly asked Uncle Min beside him, "Uncle Min, am I old?" ”

Uncle Min was shocked, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he dealt with it carefully: "Childe's appearance has not changed from a few years ago, how can he say that he is old." ”

"Am I not as good as that kid from the Shi family?" Xiao Qi complained to himself.

Uncle Min knew his thoughts, thought about it carefully, and said: "It's not a question of whether it's better or not, it's just that Miss Liu knew Shi Gongzi first, if she turns to Gongzi's arms again, won't she become a woman who sees things differently and is a water-based poplar?" How can such a woman be worthy of a son? ”

"You're right." Xiao Qi smiled, elegant and vulgar, "I just have a different life with her." ”

Uncle Min continued: "Not really, what is the result of a man taking a concubine, there are many people who are twenty, thirty or even forty years apart. I see that Miss Liu is a woman who is unswerving in her feelings, if she hadn't met Shi Gongzi first, it would have been a good thing for the eldest son to be with Miss Liu. ”

His words were very meaningful, not only comforting Xiao Qi's age was not the reason for hindering the two, but also reminding him that it was impossible for Liu Qingyan to empathize with each other.

Xiao Qi's smile was a little more helpless, but also more calm, signaling Uncle Min to rest assured, "How can Miss Liu be a person who is willing to commit herself to being a concubine, I understand, just keep some thoughts in the future." ”

said so, but he knew in his heart that today's sad eyes were like an invisible giant net firmly binding him, and it would be difficult to escape in this life.

Uncle Min owes himself and asks Xiao Qi to board the car.

Liu Qingyan entered the house, and the doorkeeper told her that there were guests at home, and Miss Cousin and Aunt Cousin were here.

Since Qiaozhen got married, she rarely went to the door of Liu's house again, and only came once in the first month, and I don't know what happened today.

As soon as Liu Qingyan entered the inner courtyard door, the maid Qiu'er greeted her and complained, "Miss, you can be regarded as back, and the people who are full of houses all day and day have been disturbed." ”

Liu Qingyan smiled and asked, "What's the matter, what's worth your complaining about?" ”

"Miss Cousin has a body, I came to report the good news today, saying that I want to eat the dishes you cooked, but you are not at home, Miss Cousin will be petty and refuse to eat, and the whole house will revolve around her." Qiu'er said angrily.

Liu Qingyan was surprised: "Don't the mothers-in-law all cook the dishes I often make, just make them for her, and make a lot of trouble?" ”

Qiu'er pinched her waist and said, "I think so too, those dishes are made according to your methods, but Miss Biao doesn't say that Miss You make it delicious." ”

Mothers are expensive by virtue of their sons, and they are proud of their pets.

Liu Qingyan smiled when she heard this, noncommittal, but she had a bottom in her heart.

entered the main hall, except for Liu Bowen, Liu Lanqing's father and son, everyone in the family was there.

Qiaozhen is dressed up very richly, with five or six hairpins on her head, surrounded by two maids and two mothers-in-law, and the pomp has caught up with the concubines in the palace.

Seeing Liu Qingyan coming back, Tang Gongzi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Cousin Yan, the lady is happy, I want to eat the dishes you cooked, so I bother my cousin to cook two dishes myself, so that the lady can eat some food." ”

Liu Qingyan glanced at Tang Gongzi, first said hello to the husband and wife, and then said to Xie: "Mother, I heard that sour and spicy girls, Sister Qiaozhen loves spicy food so much, our family should give gifts to girls according to the preparation." ”

Xie Shi thought for a while and said, "It's not quite right to say that sour children and hot girls are not right, when I was pregnant with your brothers and sisters, I loved to eat sour." ”

Liu Qingyan nodded with understanding and said, "It turns out that the common sayings are not true. Then he smiled and said to Qiaozhen: "Sister Qiaozhen, you sit down for a while, I'll go cook for you, put more chili peppers to eat." ”

Qiaozhen's expression changed, and she shook her head violently and said, "No need, I don't want to eat spicy, I want to eat sour, and the pickles made by Xianggong are quite delicious." ”

"That's right." Liu Qingyan turned her head to Tang Gongzi and said, "Cousin-in-law, did you hear it, why don't you hurry up and take my sister Qiaozhen home to eat pickles." ”

Tang Gongzi was busy agreeing, and let the maids and mothers-in-law help Qiaozhen to leave.

Liu Qingyan asked Xie Shi, "Mother, how long has Sister Qiaozhen been in her body, and she has to be carried by someone for a few steps." ”

Xie shook his head and sighed: "How did this child become so squeamish now, the doctor has only diagnosed his body less than two months old." In the first month, my mother's family did not return, saying that the mountain road was difficult to walk, so I only sent someone to send a gift back. ”

"It's all what her men are used to." Liu Qingyan muttered.

Xie Shi just shook his head and sighed, Zhu Hong smiled and said: "Sister still has a way, before you come back, we have no way at all, the mother-in-law makes the dishes and serves them, and when you taste it, you say that it is not delicious, you have to wait for your sister to come back and make it." ”

"I'm not her man, it's useless to be coquettish with me." Liu Qingyan rolled her eyes, leaned in front of Zhu Hong, and said, "Sister-in-law, you can get pregnant quickly and be coquettish with my brother." ”

Zhu Hong's cheeks turned red, and she poked her head with a finger of Zen, and said: "The girl's family is not ashamed, she dares to take care of her brother and sister-in-law's affairs, you go to your Shi Gongzi to be coquettish." ”

Liu Qingyan was thick-skinned and said with a smile: "It's a pity that my Shi Gongzi is not in the city." ”

The two sisters-in-law made a fuss for a while, and Liu Qingyan told her about the Guo family she met today.

After hearing this, Old Man Liu was all worried, and said: "The family surnamed Guo is despicable and shameless, and his heart is extremely vicious. Yan girl, you must be careful when you walk outside in the future, they can do everything. ”

Liu Qingyan soothed: "Grandfather, don't worry, as long as our family doesn't go far and stays in the city, they won't dare to do anything." ”

Mrs. Liu has always been timid, and this will be even more worried, and said: "Then you can't be unguarded, you are a young girl's family is not as good as a man, and you will go out and bring all the maids and family members with you." ”

Xie Shi instructed Qiu'er: "When Miss goes out in the future, you must follow, you know?" ”

"The servant knows." Qiu'er responded.

Liu Qingyan saw that her family was so nervous, so she had to promise to take Qiu'er with her when she went out in the future.

Zhu Hongyan said: "I'm afraid that one maid next to my sister is not enough, our family might as well add a few more nursing homes that know kung fu, and the father-in-law and father-in-law must have a long-term entourage when they go out." ”

Old Man Liu, Mrs. Liu and Xie Shi felt that what Zhu Hongfei said made sense, and they all said that now she is the one who is presiding, and everything is up to her to make up her mind.

Liu Qingyan thought to herself: No matter how many maids there are, they are just weak women, if there is really something, it is not equivalent to giving meat to people for nothing.

She hurriedly said that one maid was enough, and she just had to add a long-term entourage to her father and brother. As for the matter of the nursing home, in the future, if we think about it in the long run, the house at home is so big, and there are too many people to live in the room.

The matter was agreed upon and revealed.

Let's talk about the Guo family, because Zhuangzi was seized, their family had no place to live, so they had to temporarily live in the inn.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Guo family were beaten by the board, hated Liu Qingyan to the core, and vowed to take revenge.

After asking the doctor to come over to check the pulse, and after grabbing the medicine and applying the ointment, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relieved themselves and lay on the bed and cursed with all kinds of unpleasant words.

Guo Laohan was so upset by the noise that he scolded coldly: "Don't argue, what's the use of you just lying here and scolding, she can't hear it, it's better to think about it quietly, what should we do next." ”

Mrs. Guo struggled to move her body, and the injury on her buttocks grinned in pain, and when the pain passed, she said, "Old man, you have the most ideas for our family, what should you do, you take a charter." ”

"Yes, Dad, you quickly think of a way to come out and punish the little prodigal hooves of the Liu family." Guo Laiwang's mother-in-law said.

Guo Laohan's eyes were ruthless but helpless, and he said: "You have also seen it, that little girl is familiar with the county magistrate and the husband of the grandmother, and her power is many times stronger than our family, and it will not work if you meet it hard." ”

"Then what should we do, we can't let that little prostitute step on our heads and." Mrs. Guo said ruthlessly.

After thinking for a moment, Guo Laohan said decisively: "Now the only way to send someone to send a letter to Fucheng to the eldest grandmother is to let the eldest grandmother come forward in person." ”

The Guo family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were overjoyed, if the grandmother came, they would provoke from it, and they were afraid that no one would deal with that little hoof!

In fact, at this moment, the eldest grandmother in their mouth, Fang Yanleng, had already taken a boat to Yuxi County.

In the richly decorated cabin, Fang Yan stared at a portrait on the table with resentful and resentful eyes, and the woman in the painting had bright eyes and was looking forward to affection.

Fang Yan stared coldly for a while, pulled off the step on her head and tried her best to illustrate the eyes of the woman in the painting, until she poked out two holes in the drawing paper before re-rolling the portrait.

"Mother, mother." Xiao Rui ran in accompanied by the nurse.

Fang Yan's cold face sank, and she scolded the nurse and said, "It's not for you to take the little boy to play, don't come to disturb me, why did you come in again." ”

The nurse shuddered and said, "The little boy just woke up from a nap and said that he wanted to come to see his mother, so I brought it with me." ”

Fang Yan coldly waved her hand to let the nurse retreat, pulled Xiao Rui to look at him, stroked the facial features that looked very similar to Xiao Qi with her fingers, and said in a complaining tone: "Rui'er, your father left our mother and son to find the little fox Meizi, and in the future, you will be a child without your father's love, do you know?" ”

Xiao Rui blinked his dark and shiny eyes and asked, "What is the little fox girl, why doesn't Daddy love Rui'er?" ”

"The little fox is an unserious woman who specializes in seducing the soul of a man." Fang Yan coldly took Xiao Rui into her arms and continued to say quietly: "Your father's three souls and seven souls have been hooked, and he only has that little fox in his heart, where will he remember our mother and son." The fox has taken away your father's favor for you, and you have to hate the fox, understand? ”

Xiao Rui only understood that someone had taken away his father's favor for him, and replied ignorantly: "Rui'er understands." ”

"Well, in the future, our mother and son will depend on each other." Fang Yan's cold face rubbed lightly on the top of Xiao Rui's head, and there was frightening jealousy and viciousness in his eyes.

Fang Yanleng's ship arrived in Yuxi County the next day.

Xiao Qi's white clothes were elegant, holding a jade flute and preparing to go to the county office, listening to the people in the other courtyard to tell Fang Yan that it was cold, the emotions in his eyes did not fluctuate much, as if he had a fixed number in his heart.

He put the jade flute in his hand back in place, and sat calmly waiting for Fang Yanleng to come and find it.

Fang Yanleng really lived up to his expectations, came into the inner courtyard and went straight to Xiao Qi's room, seeing his casual and leisurely appearance, he said in a mocking tone: "My husband is so anxious, he never brought it with him when he came to Yuxi County, and he didn't even take a change of clothes." ”

However, Xiao Qi didn't intend to fight with silence anymore, raised his eyes to look at Fang Yan coldly, and said calmly: "Whether I bring an entourage or not, you haven't found it the same." ”

Fang Yan was a little surprised, her silver teeth were slightly bitten, and her tone was deep, "Husband, is this not satisfied with the person I arranged to serve?" ”

"What does it matter if I'm not satisfied, the most important thing is that you are satisfied." Xiao Qi spoke in a cold tone and confessed bluntly, "You don't have to beat around the bush and spy on me with some irrelevant words, and tell me what you want to do." ”

"What do I want to do?" Fang Yan sneered coldly and raised her chin slightly, "What do I want to do, don't you know?" All I do is just want you to have me in your heart. ”

"Impossible." Xiao Qi got up and said resolutely: "After you pushed Li'er into the well, my heart has died with her, and there will never be anyone else." ”

"And what about her?" Fang Yanleng threw the picture scroll she was holding tightly at Xiao Qi's feet, "How did she get into your heart?" ”

Xiao Qixin twitched tightly, bent down to pick up the scroll and unfolded it, the eyes of the person in the painting were gone, leaving two egg-sized holes on the paper.

His hands trembled, and he walked towards Fang Yanleng step by step, a hundred-foot-high flame ignited in his clear and clear eyes, and the lines of his handsome face became cold and stiff.

"I don't know when I gave you the right to touch my study." Xiao Qi's tone was stiff, and he squeezed out word by word.

He has never liked to be in front of people, and this is the first time in his life that he has expressed his emotions with the truest side except for Li'er.

The study is Xiao Yuan's forbidden place, and usually without his order, the cleaning subordinates dare not enter without permission; And Fang Yanleng not only went in, but also turned out his privacy, although the important secrets were hidden in a more secret place, and it was impossible for outsiders to find them, but this had greatly exceeded his bottom line.

At this time, Xiao Qi's cold demeanor made Fang Yan feel strongly uncomfortable, the Xiao Qi she saw had always been elegant and gentle, even if she was perfunctory, she would maintain her superficial demeanor.

"I am your wife, the future head of the Xiao family's inner courtyard, why can't I enter your residence?" Fang Yan's cold attitude is still tough.

Xiao Qi tried his best to suppress the fury churning in his chest, and said angrily: "Very good, the eldest lady from a dignified merchant family doesn't know the most basic women's training of three obedience and four virtues, it seems that it is necessary for you to go home and reflect on it, and re-accept the teachings of the female elders in the family." ”

"You want to divorce me?" Fang Yan's cold pupils suddenly enlarged, and he said sharply: "Do you know the consequences of doing this? ”

"It's not a renunciation." Xiao Qi took a step closer and looked down at her, "It's just that I went back to my mother's house and thought about it behind closed doors, I will explain in my letter to Master Fang about your private invasion of my study, your father, who also fought bloodily in the shopping mall, must be sensible and principled to keep you staying." As for how long I will stay, I will decide according to my mood in the future, if the mood has been bad, you will continue to live, anyway, your Fang family will not be able to support you, and your father will not be so thick-skinned as to forcibly send you back. ”

Every sentence of his words was extremely cold and piercing, Fang Yan's cold cheeks tightened, and he bit the root of his teeth hard, until the root of his teeth was sore, and then he opened his lips coldly, "You want me to be a widow in the name of Grandma Xiao, maintain the cooperative relationship between the two families, and drag it out until I die." ”

"Yes, you're not stupid." Xiao Qi's prismatic gaze pierced straight into her eyes, and she said calmly: "I just want you to stay alive and widowed, even if you stay in the Xiao family, I will not touch you again." Of course, if you die, I will naturally take your coffin back and bury it in the ancestral grave of the Xiao family. ”

Fang Yan's cold face turned pale, white to blue, suppressed the rise and fall of his chest, and sneered: "My father is not so stupid that he can't even understand your intentions, he won't allow you to be so presumptuous." ”

"What if your father understands?" Xiao Qi smiled leisurely, paced to the window and said slowly and clearly: "What kind of shame a divorced daughter will bring to the family, your father knows better. Also, do you really think that your Fang family will cut off the cooperation between the two for your sake? Half of the cloth produced by your Fang family every year is distributed from my auspicious cloth village, and it is impossible to find a replacement business in a short period of time. ”

"Not for a short time, but if it takes a long time, you think my father will be willing to put up with your checks and balances." Fang Yan said proudly.

Xiao Qi suddenly turned around and smiled slightly, "Do you think I'm willing to endure your threats again?" ”

Fang Yan's cold eyebrows furrowed, and he looked at him suspiciously, "Our family's cloth is a tribute from the Great Interior, and the reputation of other textile merchants is far from being comparable to our Fang family, unless your Xiao family doesn't want to do the cloth business anymore." ”

Xiao Qi didn't care about this, and said indifferently: "You will confuse the real with the fake, won't I?" I'm not afraid to tell you, after returning from Yuxi County last year, I have secretly bought a few textile workshops, although this year's weaving is the old color of your Fang family last year, but the appearance looks the same, I'm afraid you yourself can't tell it. ”

Speaking of this, he deliberately paused, stared at Fang Yan's cold eyes full of anger, and continued in a calm but even more cold tone: "I have ordered Buzhuang to reduce the purchase volume by one percent from the summer, and then reduce it by one percent in the next season, and it won't be long before my Xiao family can replace your Fang family's position in the textile industry." ”

Fang Yan staggered back, her face was extremely bleak, and there was a burst of despair in her heart.

How could she forget that since the man in front of her could be in charge of the No. 1 wealthy merchant family in Jiangnan, how could he let herself control it wantonly. The little tricks that he had been deliberately playing in the past were just jokes that this man used to spice up his life in his spare time.

Fang Yanleng suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, and the laughter revealed a little resentment, a little hatred, and a little desolation.

"You have worked hard for that fox, but unfortunately people have long been trusted, no matter how much you do, she will not look at you more, you and I are just dogs wagging their tails and begging for mercy."

Xiao Qi sneered: "Don't compare me with you, I'm different from you." Everything you do is to satisfy your possessiveness, and it is enough for me to stand at a distance and watch her happiness. ”

Fang Yan's cold eyes were fiercely cold, "So, you'd rather give your heart to a slut who disdains you, than leave a place for your wife who gave birth to a child?" ”

Xiao Qi also looked back coldly, and asked in a choked voice: "What man would give his heart to a woman who calculates against himself day and night?" ”
