Chapter 55: Birthday Celebration
Yao's mother stood in place, not knowing what to do for a while. The old lady is already angry like that, if she can't bring people back, I'm afraid that she won't end well. What's more, the old lady had instructed that if the Qi family refused to go back, they would tie people back.
She even brought her mother-in-law and her family. It's just that I didn't dare to bring them all up the mountain.
She is just a subordinate, can she really collide with the prince and the prince's wife? Now the old lady's orders are true. What if she repents? Even if she doesn't repent, what if the old lady can't deal with the aftermath, and then she won't be arrested as a wicked servant and bully the master?
The more I thought about it, the more difficult it became, Yao's mother couldn't, and she didn't dare to be strong in front of Bai Xiyun, her knees weakened, she knelt down and kowtowed: "Please pity the old slave." β
Bai Xiyun still sat upright, his slender fingers tapping lightly on the table, looking indifferent.
Yao's mother pressed her forehead to the ground, pouting her stocky and bloated body, which showed a little pity.
Qi Miao frowned, but she knew that this world was such a rule, people were inferior and inferior, and they were not born equal. If you think about it, where is this not the case?
Mother Yao saw that she couldn't ask Bai Xiyun, so she turned to Qi Miao and kowtowed: "I beg Mrs. Shizi to take pity on the old slave." Today's birthday of the old lady, you and the prince are also the grandson and granddaughter-in-law of the old lady, the old lady wants you two to go back to celebrate the birthday is not wrong, three please four urged no one to go back, spread it is not good for you and the son, and after all, they are all a family, and they will get along with each other in the future. The old slave didn't dare to say that I beg you to pity the old slave, don't let the old lady punish the old slave, just ask you to go back for the sake of filial piety. "Say it and kowtow again.
What Yao's mother said was reasonable, and Qi Miao was a little moved in her heart.
She herself doesn't care whether she offends the old lady or not, but she cares about Bai Xiyun. Now that he had just received some of the Emperor's appreciation, what if any rumors spread that were not good for him?
While Qi Miao was pondering, Bai Xiyun kept looking at her as if she was nothing. Seeing that she was heartless, she seemed to be moved by compassion, and she couldn't help but shake her head helplessly.
He didn't speak, and after Yao's mother finished speaking, she just wanted to see how Qi Miao would react.
As expected, she is still as soft-hearted and kind as in her previous life.
"You don't have to say these words to deceive your master, she is a soft-hearted person, and she is the most easily moved by compassion. You threaten her to go back with filial piety and my reputation, don't you know what others will do to her?"
Yao's mother complained bitterly in her heart, she was such a prince, she was as fine as a monkey! He thought comprehensively! He broke through all the things she was hiding.
Qi Miao also came back to his senses. The old lady told Yao's mother to come, how to deal with her if she couldn't keep it. After all, it was she who pierced the old lady's precious son inhumanely.
Bai Xiyun said: "You get up, go back and bring a message to your master, if she has the ability, she will kill me, kill me, and I will naturally not be able to help my daughter-in-law." If you don't have that ability, don't fight Miao'er's crooked thoughts as soon as possible, I am an unreasonable and calf protector, my wife naturally has me to protect, if others want to move a strand of her hair, they must also weigh whether the head on the cavity is strong enough!"
Yao's mother was frightened, and said anxiously: "Lord Shizi, the old lady is your own grandmother, how can you treat your granddaughter-in-law, you think too much." β
"Are you looking at me so foolishly?" Bai Xiyun raised his eyebrows, looking at Yao's mother's eyes full of pity, thinking that he was looking at a dying person.
Yao's mother's face changed, and she hurriedly kowtowed: "The prince is angry, you really misunderstood the old slave." Even if the old slave has 10,000 guts, he won't dare to despise you. β
"Then go back and tell the old lady, I know what she thinks, tell her to shut up her son and less use the crooked thoughts of others, even if there is something that she seems to be unjust, in fact, she also knows that the root cause is his son. β
One bite of "her son", it shows that in Bai Xiyun's mind, Bai Yongchun, who covets his daughter-in-law, has been classified as a stranger, although he is his father, but he is even a stranger in his heart.
Yao's mother didn't dare to argue anymore, so she hurriedly bowed and retreated, and had just taken two steps, but heard Bai Xiyun say, "Wait." Yulian, you take the gift on the table and go with Yao's mother, and hand the gift to the old lady in person, and say that my wife and I wish her a long life. The rest of you look at and reply is, leave the things down and come back, don't delay, I still have you to serve here, you know?"
"The servant knows. Yulian saluted, and went to get a set of jadeite heads prepared by Qi Miao in advance.
Yao's mother finally felt a little more at ease in her heart, she didn't go back, she had something, and this time there was this Yulian reply, so the old lady wouldn't pull her.
When she got to the porch, she wiped her sweat, and saw that the maids looked at her as if they were looking at annoying rats and insects, and Yulian also looked at her with white eyes in collusion with several other "gangsters". Yao's mother couldn't help but feel congested, so she lowered her head and walked quickly, followed by Yulian.
After Yao's mother went out, Qi Miao sat next to Bai Xiyun: "Ah Zhao, you still have a way to deal with these people, and I am too stupid to compare with you." β
"You are not stupid, looking at you in front of the emperor and the second prince, you can still be dignified and gentle, neither humble nor arrogant, and you are very moderate, how can you be stupid? You are just too kind and naΓ―ve. β
Qi Miao smiled bitterly. The kindness of a woman that occasionally pops up is not the White Lotus of the Holy Mother.
Having witnessed the process of a young life being beaten to death with a stick and pounding the flesh, she actually understood that in this era, the most unfortunate thing is the kindness of a woman, because every fight is only life and death, and there is no success or failure.
Seeing her lowered her eyes, she seemed to be a little depressed, Bai Xiyun couldn't help but pull her on her lap, hugged her waist and tossed: "What are you thinking? β
"I didn't think about anything, I just wanted to change myself, I didn't want to be a drag on you. β
"Where?"
"Not yet, but it's hard to say in the future. What if I suddenly get stupid and don't pay attention to your hind legs? I want to help you, I don't want to be a burden. β
Her pouting lips were really too seductive, Bai Xiyun looked at her pink cheeks and delicate neck, and couldn't help but steal a kiss on her lips after all.
"Where will be the burden, you are my motivation, with you I understand what I have to do. "What I think in my heart is forget it, it's just that, I don't want to dwell on it anymore. This woman is his, and he doesn't want to let go anymore, even if he keeps her perfect body and finds her a man, what is the use of that man if he is sincere to her, just to see if it is complete?
And maybe he's not great enough.
The touch on the lips is surprisingly good. Her fragrance was full of disadvantages again, and Bai Xiyun couldn't help but kiss her fragrant cheeks all the way to her neck, and then gently bit her earlobe with ruby studs.
The tip of his tongue curled, bringing her a burst of war.
Originally, he felt that his dodging action was very big, but he didn't think that in Bai Xiyun's opinion, her delicate movement would only make her more provocative.
Bai Xiyun endured it for a long time before suppressing the evil fire, he wanted to wait for his physical strength to improve, anyway, he was also his person, he was already very happy to see his relatives every day, and he was not in a hurry.
When the two were sweet, there was finally a guest in the Hou Mansion who didn't post to invite guests who also took the initiative to congratulate.
Miao took Qi Wu with a generous gift, handed over the gift list to the person who sang the ceremony, and went to the stage with the maidservant.
Looking at the carved dragon paintings and exquisite decorations of the Hou Mansion, Qi Wu felt depressed in her heart. These should have been hers!
Qi Wu is wearing a light purple butterfly and a flower bouquet waist skirt today. Although she is only a delicate little jasper on her face, her figure follows her biological mother Miao, which is very annoying. In addition, Miao's intention to cultivate, she has read poetry and books since she was a child, and the walking etiquette is specially taught by the old grandmother who retired from the palace.
Although the Miao family is half-old, she still has charm, and the dark golden gown on her body looks very good. The mother and daughter walked together, which only made people think that this must be the family of a civil official. Where can you think of the powerful Qi Yong of Kong Wu?
The servant and maid led the two into the courtyard, and when the male guests below saw the two of them in the distance, some of the amorous and dashing sons asked Bai Xiwei with a smile: "I don't know which young lady that delicate and dignified lady is?" Zimo, is that your relative?"
Bai Xiwan raised her eyes, and then said with a smile: "That's my second brother's aunt." β
"Oh?" As soon as they heard that it was General Qi's beloved daughter, the men were a little curious. General Qi's daughters are very artistic, the eldest daughter is married to the stupid son of the Mei Hanlin family, and the eldest daughter is married to the son of the Hou Anlu family who is about to kick his legs. I didn't see how happy my daughter was married, but I saw that General Qi's future was much smoother.
Such a person is really one of the many wonders that shine.
"It is said that the second girl of Qi is beautiful and talented, and she is known as the first talented woman, but unfortunately we didn't have the opportunity to meet her. Someone shook his head.
That Fang Qi Wu had already followed the Miao family as she approached the front of the building, and her dignified eyes went up the steps. When he lowered his head, a pair of beautiful eyes that were not covered by a veil turned around the body of a man downstairs and saw Bai Xidu.
That's really a talented teenager. The age is also comparable. If it weren't for the fact that the father-in-law of this family was too unreliable, she really had to consider marrying her, so that it would be convenient to regain the wealth that should have belonged to her.
When he got upstairs, he saluted the old lady and said auspicious birthday greetings, and Miao sat down not far from the old lady as a relative. And Qi Wu sat among the girls.
Bai Xilan and Bai Xixi had long been curious about this talented girl who would have married their second brother, and they couldn't help but say a few more words.
Qi Wu was gentle and retreated, and soon won their favor.
At this moment, Yao's mother and Yulian came back.
