Chapter 428: Family Banquet
Tao Xi naturally heard the movement outside, but she didn't go out.
It was a men's business, and she didn't want to be involved.
She just needs to be Jian Shiming's backing, and she is his back if necessary.
I don't know what Jian Shiming and King Jing talked about, anyway, when he came back, Tao Xi found that he was in a good mood.
"How?"
Tao Xi was lying on the bed, Jian Shiming took off his coat and smiled.
"At present, King Jing is a good person, but specifically, we have to continue to observe."
"He promised you to help solve the problem of selling exam questions for the imperial examination?"
Tao Xi raised his eyebrows lightly, and probably thought of the reason, Jian Shiming smiled:
"He said that the emperor handed over this matter to him, and he would definitely not let those people have a chance to get the exam questions."
"But he can't control the minds of those people."
Tao Xi didn't think much about it, but he didn't know if King Jing was too naΓ―ve.
Jian Shiming raised his hand and gently stroked her eyebrows. "Silly lady, King Jing has been entrenched in Kyoto for many years.
Even if I can't clean them up all at once, it's better than what I do.
And now that the emperor knows these things, presumably those people will be more restrained.
As long as I am given the chance, I will let them never leak the exam questions in the future. β
As long as he Jian Shiming enters the court, he must make these people regret it!
"Well, you're right, let's get some rest early."
The two of them folded their clothes and lay down, since they were pregnant, Tao Xi got up more and more often, Rao was like this, Jian Shiming did not let Tao Xi sleep outside alone.
She got up, and he was with her.
There were too many times, Tao Xi simply wanted to get up at night and took Jian Shiming to the space together.
After the two of them finished solving in the space, they returned to the warm bed.
A few days later, Qi Fu took Qi Lao to the door, and when he saw Tao Xi and Jian Shiyi, Qi Lao was not angry:
"If I don't come, have you forgotten that there is still me as a master?"
"Master, I'm busy doing the homework you left me, and I don't have time to come to look for you for a while."
Jian Shiyi smiled, mainly because he knew that his eldest brother and sister-in-law were busy, so he was too embarrassed to disturb.
It was also inconvenient for him to go to the master as a child, so he simply did not go out of the door.
"You."
Qi Lao rubbed Jian Shiyi's head, but in the end he didn't say anything harsh.
Tao Xi said: "I have been busy taking care of this courtyard for the past two days, and it is my rudeness that I did not visit Master. β
"That's it, I should have known your character."
Qi Lao sighed, and then said, "Your senior brother is also my son.
Said to have a banquet to welcome you, when do you have time?
I will let them keep the time on you. β
"That's right, Sister Tao, we're all casual."
Qi Fu smiled, which made Qi Lao very unaccustomed, and he thought that his granddaughter was here to embarrass Tao Xi.
I didn't expect her to really change her personality.
"Actually, we don't have to limit the time."
Tao Xi and Jian Shiyi glanced at each other, the two of them stayed in the house every day, and they could go whenever they wanted.
"Okay, I'll let them look at the arrangement."
Qi Lao smiled and went to the yard with his hands behind his back, he hadn't seen him for a while, but he thought about Qing Yu's girl's craftsmanship.
Tao Xi naturally knew his thoughts, so he kept them for dinner.
Qing Yu went to the kitchen to get a table of delicious food, and Qi Fu was fortunate to eat again.
Alas, it would be nice to be able to eat it every day.
After Qi Lao finished eating, he set a time when he went back and asked Qi Fu to come and deliver an invitation.
Just three days later, Tao Xi asked Qing Yu to go to the shop to pick out a few clothes, and prepared them for Jian Shiming and Jian Shiyi.
When they were ready, they waited for the day to come.
On this day, Jian Shiming turned down the invitation of some classmates and changed clothes with Tao Xi early.
On the carriage, Jian Shiyi stroked his hair nervously, "Sister-in-law, do you think the teacher's family will not like us?" β
"It's their business whether they like it or not."
Tao Xi nodded his head, "It's good that we have a clear conscience in our lives and things."
There is no need to please them because of Master, and I believe that Master does not want us to please unnecessary people because of her. β
"Your sister-in-law is right, you are just Qi Lao's apprentices, there is no need to please her."
Jian Shiming was not at ease, so he insisted on being with Tao Xi, worried that others would bully his wife.
"Okay, I'll listen to my eldest brother and sister-in-law."
Jian Shiyi's expression was serious, and the three of them sat in the carriage and soon arrived at Qi's house.
Tao Xi didn't expect that Qi Lao would wait at the gate with a group of people.
Even Himeko Tsuru is no exception.
Jian Shiming helped Tao Xi get out of the carriage, and Jian Shiyi followed.
Qi Lao walked over happily, "Xiaoxi Xiaoyi, come over quickly." β
"Master."
The moment Tao Xi nodded, he also glanced at the person behind Qi Lao.
Boy!
That's a lot of people.
There are dozens of men and women together, and Taoxi is dazzled by it, like flowers in the flower and bird market.
"Come, follow me in first."
Qi Lao didn't care so much, and walked inside with them.
Qi Fu wanted to get over, but was dragged by her mother.
"What are you doing?"
The eldest lady glared at Qi Fu fiercely, "Do you still think she bullied you enough?" β
"Mother, I said that the previous thing was a misunderstanding."
Qi Fu was very distressed, and she knew that she shouldn't have complained to her mother before.
Now her mother still holds a grudge against Tao Xi, and she can't explain it clearly.
"I think you were forced by your grandfather."
The eldest lady was so angry that she almost broke the handkerchief in her hand, "Where is my daughter worse than others?" β
"Mother!"
Qi Fu was very angry, "It's really not what you think, I'm willing to be friends with her." β
After finishing speaking, she quickly ran in with Tao Xi, and the angry lady had a pain in her brain.
At this time, Qi Lao greeted them to a huge banquet hall, and Qi Lao said:
"It's all my own family, and there are no outsiders, so our family banquet is eaten here."
"Okay master."
Tao Xi nodded, got up and turned his head to look at the eldest son beside him, "Shu'er, this is your little junior sister and junior brother."
Jian Shiming is your little brother-in-law, you can help introduce me. β
"Okay, Dad."
Qi Shu smiled at Tao Xi in a friendly manner, "Hello junior sisters and junior brothers."
I am your elder brother and sister, and this is my wife. β
He dragged the eldest lady in front of him, and the eldest lady pursed her lips irritably.
"If you want to say it, say it, pull me to do something."
"Lady!"
Qi Shu felt Qi Lao's unhappy gaze, and hurriedly warned his mother.
However, the eldest lady just pulled her lips and did not speak, obviously not welcoming them.
Qi Fu immediately jumped out and explained, "Sister Tao, these two are my parents."
There were many offends before, you don't blame me, I will explain it to my mother. β
"You didn't do anything wrong? What to do with an apology?!! β
The eldest lady smoked above her head angrily, and glared at Qi Fu fiercely.
