Chapter 88: Establishing Contradictions

Luckily, they didn't have much to do, and they quickly packed it up.

The group of them did not make any publicity, hired an inconspicuous carriage, and returned to the Xiao Mansion, which they had not seen for a long time.

Pushing open the door that has been sealed for a long time, the image of the former prosperity is no longer there, and a little dilapidated is revealed everywhere.

The garden that Xie Yin had worked so hard to take care of was now a decaying scene, with withered flowers hanging on the ground, long lost their former vitality.

"It's only been a few months?" Xiao Zhenheng stood in place and sighed, thinking for a while.

Xiao Ji turned his head to look at Xiao Zhenheng with a sad expression, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he shook his head helplessly.

"It's been a long time since anyone cleaned here," Cheng Shuiyao looked at the handrail of the small bridge that had fallen a layer of dust, and turned her head to look at Xiao Ji, "It's better to ask someone to clean it." ”

"Well," Xiao Ji nodded, and directly beckoned Moshu to come over, "Go and bring back all the old people in the house, these things are still familiar to them, and others should not be used to it." ”

"Hmm," Moshu nodded, and then pulled Moqi out with him.

Before being exiled, Xiao Zhenheng sent them all home in advance in order not to disturb the subordinates in the mansion.

Fortunately, these people's homes are recorded, and they are not too troublesome to find now.

But after half a day's work, the original person has already returned.

"Master, childe, you are finally back!" The old housekeeper Uncle Wang looked at a few people with tears in his eyes, and he couldn't suppress his emotions.

"Uncle Wang, don't cry," Xiao Ji's eyebrows softened by half a point, and his tone unconsciously lowered, "Aren't we all coming back in a good way?" Rest assured, we won't have any more accidents. ”

"Yes, yes," Uncle Wang hurriedly wiped away his tears and looked up at Xiao Ji.

Just a glance, he saw Cheng Shuiyao, and the whole person was stunned for a moment.

He left before Cheng Shuiyao got married, so he didn't know Cheng Shuiyao.

"This is Shui Yao," Xiao Ji turned her head, took Cheng Shui Yao's hand, and asked her to take a step forward, "My lady." ”

"This is Madame?" Uncle Wang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly looked at Cheng Shuiyao, and saw that this girl was spiritual, and she was immortal when she looked at her, and immediately nodded, "I've seen Madame." ”

"I still need Uncle Wang to mention it in the future." Cheng Shuiyao didn't take any hostess shelf, squatted slightly, looking extremely humble and polite.

Uncle Wang saw that this girl was not arrogant or impatient, and his heart immediately recognized.

"We still have things to do, I'll leave it to you here," Xiao Ji turned around and looked around, smiling at Uncle Wang.

"Be sure to clean it well," Uncle Wang smiled, and then beckoned everyone to start cleaning inside and out.

"And where are we going?" Cheng Shuiyao saw that Xiao Ji had plans to go out, and she had some doubts in her heart.

"There will be a banquet in the palace the day after tomorrow, you can't wear this, right?" Xiao Ji pointed to the clothes on Cheng Shuiyao's body, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "My Xiao Ji's wife, naturally can't be so simple."

This......

Cheng Shuiyao smiled undeniably, and let Xiao Ji pull him out.

The silk shops in the capital are full of people, and most of them are rich ladies who choose in them.

Xiao Ji pulled Cheng Shuiyao and walked in slowly, but he didn't know much about it himself, so he could only beckon Xiao Er to come over and introduce him.

"Whose poor sour girl is this?" A girl in a goose yellow dress sneered, instantly attracting the attention of the audience.

Cheng Shuiyao, who was standing in the center of public opinion, was inexplicable, staring at the girl in front of her who was quite feminine, and said suspiciously, "Do we know each other?" ”

"Hmph, what qualifications do you have to know me?" The girl in goose yellow snorted coldly, glanced at Cheng Shuiyao with disdain, and became more and more disdainful in her heart.

This girl is wearing all the styles that were popular a few years ago, and she looks like she is not from a good family, and being here with her simply lowers Qu Tianwan's identity.

"You ......" Xiao Ji frowned, and subconsciously wanted to refute.

"No," Cheng Shuiyao shook her head at him slightly, and turned to look at Qu Tianwan, "This girl has complaints?" Since you're not happy, then you go out, why be so mean? ”

When she spoke, Cheng Shuiyao's face was as usual, and she even had a smile in her eyes, and she didn't seem to take Qu Tianwan in his eyes at all.

"You ......" Qu Tianwan was angry and directly turned cold, "What kind of pariahs are you, you dare to collide with Miss Ben, do you know who Miss Ben is?" ”

"Coincidentally," Cheng Shuiyao looked directly at Qu Tianwan, with a little more exploration in her eyes, "I really don't know who you are?" ”

"Our young lady is the eldest daughter of the Squire of the Military Department, so it's normal that you don't know." Qu Tianwan's maid Shuangshui hurriedly spoke, her temper was the same as her master.

Does this count as the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked?

Cheng Shuiyao thought lazily, changed her posture and looked at the two of them, and her tone unconsciously brought a bit of intimidation, "Then do you know who I am?" ”

"Who are you, what's the matter with me?" Qu Tianwan still looked like she couldn't be beaten, tilting her chin and measuring Cheng Shuiyao with her nostrils.

"What is your position?" Cheng Shuiyao looked sideways slightly, looking at Xiao Ji with a little hint in her eyes.

It's a joke again.

Xiao Ji understood Cheng Shuiyao's thoughts, smiled slightly, and looked up at Qu Tianwan, "Your father is Lord Qu Congqiu?" ”

"You know my dad?" Qu Tianwan was stunned for a moment and began to be cautious.

"Coincidentally, I'm your boss," Xiao Ji smiled, but his eyes were very cold, "I guess you know me too, my name is Xiao Ji." ”

"Xiao Ji!" Qu Tianwan chuckled in her heart, but shook her head as if she was self-persuasive, "Impossible, General Xiao Xiao should be on the frontier at this time, how could he appear here?" ”

"Yes, of course...... The official has been reinstated," Cheng Shuiyao did not panic at all, and turned her head to look at Qu Tianwan leisurely, "Miss Qu, let's get to know, I am Xiao Ji's wife." ”

What!

Qu Tianwan's expression changed drastically, and she almost didn't dare to imagine what she had just done.

"Mrs. Xiao, please," Seeing this, the owner of the silk shop hurriedly supported Cheng Shui Yao and Xiao Ji, and glanced at Qu Tianwan and motioned for her to leave quickly.

This silk village is the shop of the Qu family, and it is naturally oriented towards its own lady.

"Your shopkeeper is enthusiastic," Cheng Shuiyao punned, smiled and said, then didn't want to argue about anything, and followed the boss in.

The people around saw that there was no excitement to see, so they dispersed.

Qu Tianwan was so confused that she couldn't care about the purpose of coming here for a few days, so she hurried home.

It's not a trivial matter to offend Xiao Ji, so she should tell her father quickly.

Cheng Shuiyao knew that Qu Tianwan must be anxious now, but she didn't take it to heart and concentrated on picking up the cloth.

Since it is the queen's banquet, it must not be too plain.
