Chapter 27: The Bankrupt Lady Shangshu
"Father, daughter believes that she will be able to help her father!"
Xi Chuyu sat obediently next to Master Shang Shuxi, pouring tea and water for her father.
"And my sister also said just now, my mother and I can help, father, why don't you let me give it a try?"
Xi Chuyu would not let Xi Qingyan step on her head as a prestige no matter what.
"Chu Yu, what are you making trouble here? For my father, I have to be ashamed of this! Lord Xi was anxious in his heart, and when he saw that his second daughter was making trouble in order to compete for favor, his heart became more and more impatient, "You can also be your second miss honestly in our Shangshu Mansion, don't think about being competitive in everything, you don't have a diamond diamond, don't do porcelain work!" ”
"Father!"
Xi Chuyu has felt that he has nothing to compare with Xi Qingyan since he was a child!
Now, Lord Xi directly reprimanded her in front of Xi Qingyan, where can Xi Chuyu stand it? She relies on the love of her parents on weekdays, and she is used to being arrogant and domineering in Shangshu Mansion, and others are respectful to her, where will anyone give her grievances?
"Dad, I think you might as well give Xi Chuyu a try on this matter, she is also the second miss of our Shangshu Mansion."
Xi Chuyu's plea did not bring Lord Xi's relief, but Xi Qingyan on the side opened his mouth with interest.
The poison she gave to Dong Guifei couldn't kill her, but it would just make Dong Guifei unconscious all the time, and then she had nightmares in a coma.
On that day, Dong Guifei made her son suffer a lot, if she didn't teach her a lesson, she would be sorry for her son who almost drowned!
"Xi Chuyu is not good, doesn't she still have a lady behind her?"
Xi Qingyan watched the excitement from the sidelines, and then pushed the gifts sent by Lord Shangshu in front of Xi Chuyu one by one.
"I'll give you all these gifts, Xi Chuyu, don't let your father down!"
Xi Qingyan got up and walked out in a chic manner.
"Where are you going?"
Lord Shangshu saw Xi Qingyan leaving, and hurriedly exited to block it.
"Qingyan, don't you like these gifts? If you don't like the gifts, Dad asks you to buy you another one! ”
"You kid can't just leave! Father is counting on you this time! ”
"Sir!"
Mrs. Shangshu saw that her husband was about to chase after Xi Qingyan, so she hurriedly pulled the person back, and watched Xi Qingyan's figure disappear in front of and behind the door, and Mrs. let go of her hand.
"What are you pulling me for?"
Lord Shangshu turned to his wife and scolded.
"Do you even know what happened to me? This matter is of great importance to my career, and you long-haired and short-sighted woman only know how to get in the way at critical moments! ”
"If my light-faced mother were alive, she would definitely not stop me like you!"
Lord Shangshu blurted out, but it was his dead wife who was mentioned, and when Mrs. Shangshu heard this, her heart suddenly became resentful.
She hated it when people in the house compared her to a dead man!
The people of Kyoto said that she, the lady of Shangshu who remarried, was not as noble as the dead lady of Shangshu!
She tried her best to manage hundreds of people up and down the Shangshu Mansion, and took care of the affairs of the family, but in the end, she was not as good as a dead person!
"Master, I naturally have my reason for stopping you!"
Madame suppressed the anger in her heart.
If she argues with Lord Shangshu about this matter now, it will definitely make Lord Shangshu even more disgusted with her.
"Why did you stop me? If you can't tell you how ugly you are today, I won't be able to spare you! ”
"Master, that child is your daughter, I know you need her help with something, but sir, look at the arrogant appearance of the child in Qingyan, she doesn't remember that she is your daughter at all!"
"As a daughter, she should share her father's worries, but she was indifferent to your gesture of goodwill to the master, and she returned these gifts!"
"The reason why the concubine stopped the master and didn't let you chase him out directly is because I don't want the lord to lose the face of the head of the family in this family!"
"You are the Ministry of Rites, the etiquette norms of this country can be properly rectified, if you let outsiders know that you can't tame your daughter, won't people laugh at you when the time comes?"
"If the news of them laughing at you reaches the ears of the Holy Lord, and the Holy Lord also doubts your ability, Master, then it will be a great disaster for our Shangshu Mansion!"
Mrs. Shangshu's words calmed down Lord Xi a lot, and she saw that the timing was right, so she continued to make suggestions with a soft voice.
"Moreover, sir, you didn't tell our mother and daughter, what are you going to do!"
"Maybe as soon as you say it, master, Chu Yu and I can handle this matter properly?"
Mrs. Shangshu spoke softly, and Xi Chuyu saw that her mother had appeased her father, so she beat a drum on the side.
"Father, I am also your daughter, and it seems to me that if I can have the opportunity to help my father, I will definitely be grateful!"
In order to show that she is a filial daughter, Xi Chuyu naturally wants to compare herself with Xi Qingyan.
"Father, I don't need you to buy me these things, you raised me, and my daughter hasn't repaid her father and mother for her nurturing kindness, how can you let her father spend so much just because she needs help?"
The words of Xi Chuyu and Mrs. Shangshu made Lord Xi feel very comfortable when he heard it.
He thought about the words of His Royal Highness Su Yiting, and felt that His Highness just wanted him to find the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor Valley, if Xi Chuyu could help him find the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor Valley, maybe he could still use this flower-like daughter to have a relationship with the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor!
"Okay, Chu Yu, for the sake of my father, tell you what happened to your mother now!"
Xi Chuyu is more beautiful than Xi Qingyan's daughter, all men in the world love beauties, maybe his daughter Xi Chuyu can take the opportunity to become the royal daughter-in-law in one fell swoop!
"Dong Guifei in the palace is sick now, her condition is very serious, all the imperial doctors in the palace have no way to cure Dong Guifei's illness, the imperial doctors have made suggestions to Your Majesty and recommended the divine doctor Gu Lord."
"However, the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor Valley is not in Kyoto, His Royal Highness Shu Yiting found the Divine Doctor Pavilion, and they said that as long as they find Qingyan, it is possible to invite the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor Valley."
"It turns out that I just want to invite the mysterious Divine Doctor Valley Master?"
Xi Chuyu finally understood why his father would find Xi Qingyan.
"Father, you will leave this matter to your daughter, there are far more people in our family who have dealt with the Divine Doctor Valley than Xi Qingyan alone!"
"My daughter also went to the Divine Doctor Valley at the beginning, and she has some friendship with the Divine Doctor Valley Master!"
Xi Chuyu was competitive, and in order to win his father's praise, he stubbornly said that he was the old friend of the valley master of the Divine Doctor Valley.
In fact, every time she met the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor Valley was not too pleasant!
"Yes, master, the concubine also knows the boss in the Divine Doctor Pavilion, and she can also help the master find the Divine Doctor Valley Lord!"
Mrs. Shangshu naturally will not dismantle her daughter's stage.
"Good! Good! With a virtuous wife and a filial daughter like you, I have no regrets in my life! ”
Lord Shangshu turned his anger into joy.
He had just been grinding and soaking in this Hanlian Garden for a long time, and Xi Qingyan was unwilling to let go, and promised to help him find the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor Valley.
Now, Lord Shangshu looked at Xi Chuyu's mother and daughter who took the initiative to ask for help, and his heart was full of emotion.
"Madam, what you just said is very right, it is for the husband to mess up for a while, I shouldn't have come to this Hanlian Garden to plead with my daughter, this is not in line with the way of father and son."
"Old man......"
Lord Shangshu opened his mouth apologetically, and Mrs. Shangshu was full of emotion.
"We are all a family, don't say anything to help or not, and it is also the duty of the concubine to be a wife to urge the master."
When Mrs. Shangshu saw that she had regained her grip on her husband, she took her daughter Xi Chuyu and rushed to the Divine Doctor Pavilion in a hurry.
"Gu Master, the mother and daughter of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites are really here again as you said!"
The head of the Divine Medicine Pavilion watched from a distance as Xi Chuyu and Mrs. Shangshu rushed in the direction of their Divine Medicine Pavilion in a sedan chair.
"Well, I'll leave this matter to you."
"The pills I just left for you can make the unconscious Dong Guifei wake up for two hours a day, and she can only take one pill a day."
"You put these pills away, and when the time comes, sell them one by one to the mother and daughter outside, I believe that with their temperament, they will definitely buy the pills at a high price."
The dowry left by Xi Qingyan's mother, she wanted to come back half of it last time, and this time she wanted to get the remaining half back, even with interest.
"Gu Master, how much should I price this pill?"
The Pavilion Master of the Divine Doctor Pavilion understands that their valley master is going to pit the mother and daughter outside, and treat this Mrs. Shangshu as the wronged leader!
"Fifty thousand taels of silver, one pill."
Xi Qingyan stretched out his finger and spoke.
"This pill pays 50,000 taels, will Mrs. Shangshu pay this money?"
The head of the Divine Medicine Pavilion looked at the pill in his hand and said with a suspicious expression, in fact, the pill in his hand was not expensive, and it was only sold for a thousand taels of silver in ordinary trading.
"The person they want to tie up with is the golden and noble Concubine Dong, only 50,000 taels, I believe they will be willing to pay this money!"
Xi smiled lightly to appease the master.
She knew that Xi Chuyu was the most vain, she wanted to fly on the branches and become a phoenix, if 50,000 taels of silver could help her achieve her wish, Xi Chuyu would definitely pay for medicine very happily!
"Okay, my subordinates obey!"
After Xi Qingyan finished explaining the affairs of the Divine Medicine Pavilion, he did not return to Shangshu Mansion, but turned around and walked out of the Divine Medicine Pavilion and walked in the direction of King Li's Mansion.
She had just avenged her youngest son, and now it was time to go and see Su Xiaomo.
At the beginning, she brought Su Xiaomo back to the Divine Medicine Valley to recuperate for a period of time, and now, Xi Qingyan wants to see how her baby son is doing.
After all, the last time she went out with Su Lixiao was Xi Xiaochen, she didn't see Xiaomo, and she was not very relieved after all.
Xi Qingyan found the door of King Li's mansion.
was thinking about finding an excuse to sneak into the palace, but she didn't expect the gate of the palace to be open directly to her.
"Miss, please."
"You know me?"
Xi Qingyan was stunned by this operation, she and Shu Lixiao met several times, but each of their meetings was not too pleasant.
The people of King Li's Mansion shouldn't be so polite to her.
"Mother!"
"I knew you were here, mother!"
When Xi Qingyan was still stunned, two little dolls of Su Xiaomo and Xi Xiaochen ran out of King Li's mansion.
"See the Son!"
The guards in front of the door saluted Xiao Shizi, but Xi Xiaochen threw himself into Xi Qingyan's arms regardless of it, and pulled Su Xiaomo beside him by the way, and the two fell into Xi Qingyan's arms together.
"Mother, what you say doesn't count, it's only taken so long to come to see me, have you forgotten your son?"
Xi Xiaochen nestled in Xi Qingyan's arms and complained to Xi Qingyan.
"Mother, I miss you very much."
Su Xiaomo was not as ignorant of the rules as Xi Xiaochen, he just gently told him how much he missed his mother in his heart.
