Chapter 964 Brother You Goes to Jiangnan
Yuxi and Yunqing asked a lot of questions, and Qihao answered them in detail, which made the couple very satisfied.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yun Qing said, "You are tired after traveling so far, so rest early!"
Seeing Qi Hao's demeanor, Yu Xi said, "If you do something wrong, you must have an explanation, and none of the six of you can be an exception."
Qi Hao was ready: "Yes, mother." I don't know how many times he was asked to copy the scriptures this time.
Yuxi said: "Originally, I planned to let you take Brother You to Jiangnan to gain more knowledge. Now it seems that you should stay at home and rest assured." Not letting Qihao go to Jiangnan is his punishment.
"Mother..." Facing Yu Xi's sharp eyes, Qi Hao swallowed the words from his mouth, lowered his head and said softly, "Mother, I understand."
When he went out, Qi Hao had a bitter face. It was the first time for Qi Hao to go out with such an expression since he was a child, which caused the maids and old ladies in the main courtyard to be curious. But because of the strict rules of the main courtyard, no one dares to ask.
Yun Qing smiled and said, "I thought you would punish Qihao for copying scriptures!"
Yuxi rolled his eyes at Yun Qing and said, "Qihao has a good aptitude. Although those scriptures are obscure and difficult to understand, he can remember them after reading them twice. It is not difficult for him to write scriptures by heart." Others were copying scriptures, but when they arrived at Qihao’s side, they changed it to dictation.
"If you let A Rui and the others know, they will think that you favor one over the other." Yun Qing felt that not being allowed to go to Jiangnan was not a punishment.
"Since Zaozao went to Jiangnan and came back, Qihao has always wanted to go to Jiangnan. He had the opportunity to go, but he couldn't go because he did something wrong. You can imagine how much he regrets it." Speaking of Qihao, she wanted to take a look. Unfortunately, she can't now. Only after the burden has been lifted will she be able to go there and take a look.
Yun Qing was speechless.
Mei Lan said outside, "Your Highness, Princess, the fruit has been washed." After half an hour after the meal, Oak Xi would eat some fruit.
Looking at a plate of strawberries, Oak Xi took one and ate it: "It's sweet and sour, it's delicious. He Rui, you can try it too." Yun Qing likes sweet, but not sour.
After eating two, Yun Qing stopped eating: "Are you going to let Brother You go to Jiangnan alone?" Although he was worried, since Yuxi agreed, he would let them go out if he was worried. It is an example of what they say to their children.
Yuxi shook her head and said, "Look at what Brother Rui and Brother Xuan mean! If they want to go too, let the three of them go together." The triplets have always been treated equally.
That being said, Yuxi cast a bait on Brother Rui and Brother Xuan. If Brother Rui doesn't go to Jiangnan, let him go to Qianwei Camp. Although Jiangnan is delicious and fun, going to Qianwei Camp has always been a wish of Brother Rui, so he chose to go to Qianwei Camp without thinking about Brother Rui.
As for Brother Xuan, Oak-hee told him it would be dangerous to go to Jiangnan. Brother Xuan was a little hesitant at first, but when he heard that Qi Hao was assassinated twice in Mianzhou, he immediately retreated.
Yun Qing knew that the back face was ugly: "This child is too timid. If Brother Xuan leads the army to fight, he will run away before the enemy army arrives."
Hearing this, Yu Xi was overjoyed: "You let someone with a pen and a stick lead the troops to fight, isn't that nonsense!" Brother Xuan's son is not suitable for leading troops at all. Otherwise, the battle will definitely be defeated.
Yun Qing was still very depressed: "Why are you so cowardly." This kid doesn't look like his seed at all.
"Long has nine sons, and nine sons are different. Cowardice has the advantage of being timid. If all of them are as fearless as Zazao, we will definitely live 20 years less." Brother Xuan is a little less timid. , but don't worry!
Yun Qing could only comfort himself: "Fortunately, Qi Hao and Brother Rui are not cowardly.
"
Brother You knew that he was the only one who went to Jiangnan, and muttered: "Mother is so cunning, but I'm not fooled!" Thinking that he would retreat, it was a beautiful idea.
That's what you said, but Brother You still put forward a condition: "Mother, let my cousin go to Jiangnan with me!" It's not that I'm afraid of danger, but I feel that going to Jiangnan alone will be very boring on the road, so I have to find someone who can chat.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Let me ask you."
Brother Hua has no interest in going to Jiangnan, and he has no relationship with Han Jianming and Qiu Shi. But if Oak-hee asked him to go, he would not refuse.
Yuxi said: "I have already told your father about your marriage, and your father agreed. He has already written to Xu Zhen, and it is estimated that the marriage will be settled soon."
Brother Hua asked, "Auntie, has my second brother's marriage been decided yet?"
Yu Xi smiled and said, "I have eyes and eyes. If things go well, I should be able to get married this year." As for whose girl Yu Xi did not say, it is not appropriate to talk about this matter before the marriage is settled, it is unwritten rule.
Five days later, Brother You took Hua Geer, Yu Zhi and the others to set off for Jiangnan.
When Brother Xuan arrived at the gate, he suddenly regretted seeing Brother You who was riding on the horse. He shouldn't have flinched when he heard that there was danger, but regretting it is useless now.
Qi Hao looked at Brother Xuan's expression and said with a smile, "Don't regret it, there is still a chance in the future." If it doesn't work this time, then next time. In fact, not only Jiangnan, Qihao will go to other places as long as there is a chance.
Brother Xuan nodded and said, "I hope Ayou has a good time there and returns safely."
"definitely."
When they got to the door, Mei Lan said to Qi Hao, "Master Shizi, the princess invites you to come to the study. She has something to tell you." Every time she said goodbye, Yuxi was very sad, so this time Brother You refused to allow Yuxi. to deliver.
At this time, there was no minister to report the matter. Qi Hao walked in directly. At this time, Yuxi was lowering his head to criticize the book: "Mother." It's not a big deal, Yun Qing will not come.
Yuxi put down the book in his hand, stood up, walked up to Qihao and asked, "Qihao, what do you think of Cui Weiqi?"
Qi Hao was puzzled and asked inexplicably, "Mother, who should you know about Wei Qi?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "Your father wants to betroth your second sister to Cui Weiqi, and mother wants to know what kind of girl he likes."
Qi Hao was not surprised at all, because he had heard this more than once: "Mother, do you think Cui Weiqi is good too?"
"Well, we know the details of the Cui family. Cui Weiqi was also grown up by me, you and your father. I can't tell you about your ability, but no matter how suitable the external conditions are, you have to be willing to do it." Like Zaozao No matter where you look at it, Wu Jinyu and Wu Jinyu don't match up well, but they can't stand both of them happy!
Qi Hao understood what Yuxi was saying: "Mother means Wei Qi has no intentions of second sister? Shouldn't it be? My second sister is so good, how could he despise the second sister?"
"If he really has an interest in your second sister, you can't see it for so many years?" Either Cui Weiqi hid his thoughts deeper, or he had no intention of Liu Er.
Qi Hao frowned and said, "Mother, why don't I ask him in private." Except for Brother Hua, Cui Weiqi, Feng Zhiao and other three have already gone to work. Cui Weiqi is now in Qianwei Camp, and Feng Zhiao and Du Shao are with their father.
"We just need to know what type of girl he likes." If Cui Weiqi didn't like Liu Er's type of girl, then this marriage couldn't be concluded.
Qi Hao said with a smile: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely find out." This marriage is a lifetime event, so I must have your favor, otherwise it will kill the second sister for the rest of her life.
For Qi Hao, Oak Hee was still very relieved.
Qi Hao remembered something and asked, "Mother, cousin Hua said that you appointed him a girl from the Xu family?" This was what Brother Hua told him yesterday.
Yuxi smiled and said, "It's Brother Hua that General Xu himself liked. I told your uncle about it, and your uncle has already agreed."
Qi Hao is still very concerned about Brother Hua: "How is the eldest girl from the Xu family?"
"What? Are you worried about your mother?" After speaking, Yuxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, except for her appearance, she is outstanding in other aspects. I asked Brother Hua, and he said that as long as he is smart and capable, he is good. That's it, what are the requirements for appearance."
Qi Hao frowned.
Yuxi patted Qihao on the back lightly and said, "Frowning like a little old man, it's ugly, you have to smile more, you know?"
Qi Hao calmed down and said, "Does the eldest girl from the Xu family look like General Xu?" Cousin Hua is a talented person, so he can't match an ugly girl.
Yuxi laughed: "The eldest girl from the Xu family is like her mother, and she looks more delicate. You child, your cousin Hua was also grown up by me, how can I wrong him."
Qihao is not worried about Yuxi, but he often hears Yunqing talk about marrying a wife and a virtuous man. Qi Hao felt that being smart and capable was a must, but his appearance should not be too bad. However, because of Yun Qing's words, he felt that adults were a little different from them when they looked at problems and thought about problems.
Back at Jingyuan Hall, Qihao wrote a letter and asked A Tao to send it to Cui Weiqi.
At noon the next morning, Qi Hao said to Yu Xi, "Mother, Wei Qi will take a break for two days after the third day. I want to invite him to the Fu Ji Restaurant for dinner." it is good.
"Okay." After speaking, Yuxi added: "But pay attention to safety." Although the Fook Kee Restaurant was opened by their family, no one could guarantee that there would be no accidents.
Qi Hao nodded.
In the afternoon, Lu Xiu came over. This time I came here for Brother Chang's business. Lu Xiu said: "Princess, my mother and uncle have appointed a girl from General Liu's family for Brother Chang."
Yuxi thought for a while and said, "Liu Yongnan has only one daughter, and I remember she's already engaged." She was engaged, but not married. If they are married, the palace will give gifts.
Oak-hee knew a little about the family members of the important officials below.
Liu Yongnan's daughter Liu Mei decided to be a baby girl, and the man was Mrs. Liu's nephew. At that time, Liu Yongnan was only a seventh-rank military general in Yucheng, and Mrs. Liu's brother-in-law Wang Ka opened two grocery stores in Pingcheng, and the economic conditions were good. The two sisters have a good relationship. Not long after Liu Meimei was born, the two sisters decided on this marriage for their children.
Lu Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "The girl from the Liu family was originally engaged, but the two families quit not long ago." Lu Xiu's news was very well-informed, she sighed when she heard the news, but did not expect that this girl would become her niece-in-law.
Oak-hee really didn't know about this.
Lu Xiu explained the reason: "Mrs. Liu's nephew secretly raised a woman outside, and that woman gave birth to a son for him." Madam Liu's nephew was three years older than Liu Meimei, and Wang Yu, the eldest son of the Wang family, couldn't bear the loneliness. I didn't dare to sleep with the maid at home, so I found a woman outside.
Yuxi couldn't help laughing: "How stupid to do such a thing." Liu Yongnan was not the seventh-rank deputy lieutenant back then, he was now a second-rank general, and the Wang family was still just an ordinary merchant family. If it wasn't for Liu Yongnan who kept his promise, and the two families were relatives, it is estimated that this family would have retired long ago. It's not stupid for the Wang family to dare to do such a thing after taking such a big advantage.
"Who said it wasn't!" Lu Xiu also felt that the eldest young master of the Wang family was full of confusion: "After this happened, the Wang family pressed Wang Yu to go to the Liu family to apologize, and promised not to let the woman and the child enter the Wang family. door."
Yuxi smiled, the two families were originally not equal, and she dared to make such a thing before marriage: "Then what?"
Lu Xiudao: "The Wang family was beaten out of the Liu residence, and then the Liu residence threw the dowry back to the Wang family."
Yuxi smiled and said, "It's not that easy to quit the relationship." The benefits brought by this relationship are huge, and the businessman is very profitable, how could the Wang family give up so easily.
"The Wang family is unwilling to withdraw from the relatives, but after General Liu found out, he wrote a letter and asked the chief butler to lead someone to smash the Wang family. He also said that if the Wang family did not return Geng Tie, he would make the Wang family never peaceful." Before Liu Yongnan refused to retire My dear, it's not that he is afraid that people will say that he dislikes the poor and loves the rich, but that he makes the most important promise, and he disdains to do something like breaking his promise. But now that the Wang family slapped the face like this, he would not be merciful.
The daughter has suffered so much grievance, and the father will naturally come forward. So Yuxi didn't think Liu Yongnan's behavior was out of line: "I haven't heard of this. I thought I didn't report to the Wang family." The Wang family probably didn't dare to report to the official.
Lu Xiu smiled and said, "They still dare to report to the officials." If Liu Yongnan is jealous, the Wang family will never be at peace in the future.
How Yuxi of the Wang family didn't care: "I remember that Meimei's child is quite good, and he is also worthy of brother Chang." The mother is weak and the son is strong, Mrs. Liu's son is a little soft, but Liu Meimei is a tough girl.
Hearing this, Lu Xiu had a headache: "The princess doesn't know, it was this girl Liu who let the Wang family be beaten out of Liu's house." It can be seen that this girl has a bad temper.
Yuxi didn't express her opinion, she just said with a smile, "Brother Chang is soft, and Miss Liu has her own opinion. I think it's good." The parents of the children's marriage matters. This marriage Han Jianming has already been decided, not to mention her being an aunt, it is useless even if Qiu's objections are made.
Lu Xiu came here on purpose to tell Oak-hee about it, not to let her interfere in the marriage. Brother Chang is not her son, whether it is good or bad has nothing to do with her. When her mother-in-law splits up the family a hundred years later, she will be far away and her ears will be clean. Facts have proved that Lu Xiu still thinks too well. (To be continued)
