Early the next morning, Zhao Qingya got up to freshen up and dress up, and she put on a bright red gold silk brocade Luo skirt, which looked charming and moving.

With that, she took out a delicate hairpin, gently stroked it twice with her hair, and then pulled up the broken hair with scattered sideburns.

At this time, the maid in the second room of the Zhao family entered the door, she brought a bowl of white fungus lotus seed porridge and put it on the table, and said to Zhao Qingya: "Miss, it's time for breakfast." \"

Zhao Qingya nodded, walked to the table and sat down, took a sip of the bowl of porridge, and then looked up and asked the maid: "Is there anything interesting in the house today?" \"

The maid shook her head and said with a smile: "Today, only the lord and a few sons in the mansion are going to visit His Majesty the Emperor, so don't worry about it, miss." \"

Zhao Qingya frowned and thought about it, thinking that it was so, so she didn't ask any more.

After breakfast, Zhao Qingya asked people to get back the gift she had sent last night, and called a maid to accompany her to visit Mrs. Qi.

She deliberately chose a bright red dress today, just to leave a good impression on Mrs. Qi, she wanted to tell Qi Shaoyou about his tricks, anti-customer-oriented, and seize the opportunity.

When Zhao Qingya came to the Qi family's old mansion and saw the vermilion carriage parked outside the gate, her eyes suddenly lit up.

This carriage is one of Mrs. Qi's favorite horses, and it was raised by the prince of Qi himself, and it is said that its blood is pure and loyal all its life.

Such a treasure mount can be regarded as a treasure in the old mansion of the Qi family, and ordinary people can't buy this kind of good horse at all, and it is difficult to see it even in those aristocratic mansions in the capital.

She once overheard an elderly mother-in-law chatting about it, and Old Madam Qi was proud of it, believing that she was the most honorable duchess and old lady in the entire Dasheng Dynasty.

"Yo, why do you have time to see me today?" \" The moment Old Madam Qi saw Zhao Qingya, she said with a smile on her face.

Zhao Qingya stepped forward and supported Old Madam Qi.

She looked at the appearance of the old lady Qi, and secretly slandered in her heart: This old woman really looks old, how young do you think she is? It's shameless.

But Zhao Qingya's mouth was sweet, and she immediately won the favor of Mrs. Qi, took her hand and said: "Grandma, you see that your body is so tough, you must be better than your granddaughter, I came this time to bring a special gift, I hope to win your heart." \"

As she spoke, she took a brocade box from the maid who followed behind her and handed it to Old Madam Qi.

\"Yohe, you also prepared a gift, take it out and show it to grandma." Old Madam Qi took the box with a smile and said as she opened it.

Zhao Qingya explained with a smile: "It's a set of rosewood carved tea sets that I accidentally saw on the street, although there is nothing valuable, but I like it very much, so I bought it, I want to honor my grandmother." \"

"Rosewood...... This thing is a rare thing......" As soon as Mrs. Qi heard the words "rosewood", her eyes suddenly lit up, she turned the box over and over again to observe it carefully, and her mouth sighed with admiration: "You girl really have a heart, you are such a little girl, it is already rare to know how to collect antiques, and you can also think of honoring grandma, it is simply too touching." \"

Seeing this, Zhao Qingya snorted coldly in her heart, still smiling brightly on her face, and said to the old lady: "This rosewood tea set was bought when I visited the market a few days ago, and I heard that this tea set is very valuable, so my granddaughter thought, this time I will give it to my grandmother, it is not a tribute." \"

After speaking, she took the gold-inlaid jade-inlaid jade hairpin from the maid behind her, handed it to Mrs. Qi, and said: "Grandma, this hairpin is specially asked for by me in the temple, it is made of amethyst, it is very beautiful, and please accept it with a smile." \"

As soon as Mrs. Qi saw this hairpin, her eyes were almost straight.

Although she is old, she is still very keen on jewelry, especially this hairpin, which is turquoise all over, and it is a first-class product at first glance, and the shape of this hairpin is very unique, it is made of a ten-centimeter-long gold inlaid jadeite, and it is not ordinary at a glance.

She stretched out her hand to take it, looked left and right, and then smiled at Zhao Qingya: "I like this hairpin very much, you have a heart!" But grandma has a lot of delicious pastries here, so you can try them when you go to my yard. \"

When Zhao Qingya heard this, she hated it in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "Thank you, grandma." \"

As she spoke, she had been surrounded by a group of servants of Old Madam Qi and entered the Qi family's old mansion.

Along the way, Zhao Qingya was observing the surrounding environment, this old mansion covers a wide area, pavilions, rockeries and flowing water, everywhere shows the luxury of large families.

She saw many people standing on the stone steps in the courtyard, looking up at the plaque hanging in the courtyard with the words "Qi Mansion" written on it.

\"The Qi family's family business is really not ordinarily huge, no wonder Qi Shaoyou dares to be so arrogant and domineering to me......" Zhao Qingya thought in her heart, a trace of viciousness flashed in her eyes.

She thought in her heart that when she entered the Qi family, she would find an opportunity to cry to Mrs. Qi about Qi Shaoyou's bullying of her, and let Mrs. Qi punish him severely, and when the time comes, Qi Shaoyou will be punished, and she will take the opportunity to leave the Qi family, marry into a more upscale Nangong mansion, and live a rich life.

Mrs. Qi's courtyard is in front of a five-storey building, this small building is cylindrical, surrounded by blue brick tiles, and the roof is paved with thick bluestone slabs.

Directly in front of the small building is a huge courtyard, surrounded by rows of thick plane trees, the trunks of which rise into the sky, the leaves are verdant and dripping, and a rich fragrance comes to the nose.

There are many potted plants planted in the front yard of the small building, including peonies, peonies, plum blossoms and other varieties, many petals have withered, and only the pink and white branches are left hanging on the treetops, like pear blossoms hit by the rain, which is very beautiful.

Zhao Qingya was stunned, and couldn't help but exclaim: \"Wow! Grandma, the scenery here is so beautiful! \"

When Mrs. Qi heard this, she immediately smiled and said: "This is the ancestral old house of our Qi family, every time the spring flowers bloom, the children of our Qi family will come here to relax and relax, if you like it, you can come and play at any time in the future, don't worry about the rules of our Qi family." \"

\"Thank you grandma! Zhao Qingya was overjoyed in her heart, but she pretended to be calm on the surface.

Her eyes slipped around the courtyard of Old Madam Qi, and found that except for some domestic servants, she didn't see Qi Shaoyou's shadow, and said secretly in her heart: "It's strange, I obviously remember that Qi Shaoyou is also the grandson of Old Madam Qi, why didn't he live here with Old Madam Qi?" \"

She was thinking about what to do, when Old Madam Qi's personal maid suddenly came over to her and said, "Miss Zhao, Old Madam let you in." \"

\"Hmm. Zhao Qingya nodded slightly, then turned around and followed the maid into Old Madam Qi's inner room.

The furnishings of the inner room are very exquisite, there is a table of eight immortals carved from rosewood, and a purple clay pot is placed on the table, and on the lid of the purple clay pot, a few bright red roses are inserted, exuding bursts of fragrance.

Zhao Qingya could see at a glance that the bottle of purple clay pot was definitely of the highest quality.

Old Madam Qi sat on the chair, and when she saw Zhao Qingya coming in, she immediately beckoned her to sit down: "Come and sit, don't be restrained!" \"

Zhao Qingya sat down opposite Old Madam Qi.

Old Madam Qi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Zhao Qingya, and then asked kindly: "Qingya, if you and Shaoyou have a conflict outside, he is not sensible, don't take it to heart, he is a boy after all, unlike you girls, who are not careful enough." \"

Zhao Qingya hurriedly shook her head and said, "Grandma, what are you talking about, I have never had anything to do with Shaoyou, how could I quarrel with him?" \"

Old Madam Qi listened and nodded, but Zhao Qingya suddenly burst into tears.

\"Oh, why are you crying, kid? Old Mrs. Qi was frightened, and hurriedly persuaded: "If you have any grievances, tell grandma, and grandma will stand up for you!" \"

Zhao Qingya sobbed and said, "Grandma, I know that you love me, and you know that I am your granddaughter-in-law, but you don't know ......."

\"Don't swim him, he humiliated me in front of so many people......"

\"What? When Mrs. Qi heard this, her face immediately changed, and she asked sharply: "That kid dares to do this to you!" He...... How dare he humiliate you? \"

Zhao Qingya said vaguely: \"He still ...... He also ...... And he said to me, "You will marry me...... Say...... Say...... He said that I would be his concubine. \"

As she spoke, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Old Madam Qi trembled with anger, she slapped the table and stood up, pointed at Zhao Qingya and scolded: "Bastard thing! He's a brute! How dare he insult you like this, he doesn't want to live anymore! \"

Seeing this, Zhao Qingya suddenly cried more and more sadly.

Old Madam Qi comforted her while ordering someone to call Qi Shaoyou over.

Soon, Qi Shaoyou hurried over.

Qi Shaoyou was dressed in a blue brocade robe, with a white belt around his waist, lining him to be tall and handsome, heroic and cool, his eyebrows were thick and black and trimmed extremely exquisitely, his eyes were narrow and long, and the tails of his eyes were slightly raised, revealing a bit of evil demeanor, and the whole person looked like a fairy in the sky.

\"Grandmother looking for me? After Qi Shaoyou saw Old Madam Qi, he asked respectfully.

\"Bastard thing! Old Madam Qi yelled at him angrily: "I have taught you to respect women on weekdays, how can you do such a ridiculous thing!" \"

Qi Shaoyou was stunned for a moment, and then pouted disdainfully: "Respect women? Shouldn't women serve men? \"

When Mrs. Qi heard this, she trembled with anger, she raised her hand and pointed at Qi Shaoyou, unable to speak for a long time.

Seeing this, Qi Shaoyou's heart became more and more resentful, he stepped forward and snorted coldly: "Miss Zhao is unwilling to be the daughter-in-law of my Qi family, I naturally will not force her, but since she has become a member of my Qi family, then she must abide by women's morality!" Since she refuses to agree to marry me, I don't force it, I just hope that my grandmother will leave my affairs alone in the future! \"

"Bastard! Old Madam Qi angrily scolded: \"Do you really think you are the master of the Qi family? I'm telling you, I'm the mother of the Qi family! Marry whoever I want you to marry. If you think badly about Qingya again, if she has three longs and two shorts, I will settle accounts with you! ”

Zhao Qingya looked at Qi Shaoyou with contempt.
