Chapter 240 Chapter 259
Some people finally reunited, while others faced separation.
In Qi Mansion, Mrs. Qi was sitting in the main seat with a depressed look on her face.
Qi Moxuan sat at the bottom, drinking tea silently, looking a little leisurely.
"Bang!"
Qi Lao Niang slapped the table, oh, my hands hurt, and she couldn't help but show her teeth. Seeing her son's indifferent expression, she felt even more unhappy, "Drink tea, you have been assigned, why are you still in the mood to drink tea? Why am I angry?" Since you are such a heartless person, it’s already here, why don’t you think of a way quickly..."
When Qi Qi entered the door, she first saw my mother giving her brother a lesson. She quickly stepped forward and said, "Mom, don't be angry yet. Listen to what the third brother has to say."
Pei Sheng followed closely behind, first said hello to his mother-in-law and brother-in-law, and then silently found a seat to sit down, drink tea and watch the show.
Qi Qi also heard what Pei Sheng said on the way here, and looked at Qi Moxuan with doubts in her eyes.
"Third brother, I heard that you took the initiative to ask for the order. Why?"
"What? You did this on your own initiative. Oh my god, why did I give birth to such a stupid son like you? You are going to make me angry to death." Mrs. Qi patted her heart with a sad face. Understood.
He could only continue talking to Xi Ni, "I really didn't think much about it. After ten years of studying hard in a cold window, I learned literary and martial arts, sold my goods to the emperor's family, and served the court. I just want to do more facts for the people."
But seeing how anxious Mrs. Qi was, she could only comfort her first, "Mom, don't worry, I'll check Third Brother's pulse first."
Today, her son came back and suddenly told her that he was going to Xidu Mansion to take up his post. He asked her what her plans were, whether she should go back to her hometown in Jiangzhou first or stay in Kyoto and wait for his return.
"Then why don't you get married and don't want a daughter-in-law?" The more Mrs. Qi thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible, and she howled, "What kind of fate do I have? No wonder I asked you for a daughter-in-law. You kept pushing back, what's the matter? What should we do? Xiaoqi, what should your third brother do? He is going to die. Can you check his pulse..."
But at this time, everyone's eyes were focused on him, and he couldn't avoid it at all. He had no choice but to stretch out his hand, but he still couldn't help but defend himself again, "I'm very good, I really don't have that... ...something wrong with that."
After saying that, even though he was thick-skinned, he couldn't help but blush.
"Yes, uncle, we are all members of the family here, and there are people guarding the outside. No one will eavesdrop on the conversation." Pei Sheng assured Qi Moxuan with a serious look on his face.
After asking again carefully, I was sure.
Qi Qi didn't know for sure. How could he detect Longyang's addiction by checking his pulse?
Qi Qi looked at Qi Moxuan, "Third brother, let me feel your pulse."
Pei Sheng raised his head, his eyes blank, very innocent, and said seriously, "Mom, why are you saying this? We are a family."
"Hmm, tell me, what do you think?" Seeing her son-in-law's promise, Mrs. Qi immediately asked her son again.
Qi Moxuan's face is full of black lines, his mother really knows how to think.
"Okay, okay, hurry up..." Mrs. Qi quickly let go of her hand and pushed her to Qi Moxuan. Her eager look made Pei Sheng, who was pretending to watch the show calmly, couldn't help but laugh. , looking at my uncle’s embarrassed face again, I just couldn’t bear it anymore...
Mrs. Qi was satisfied when she saw that he was so sincere. She turned back to look at her son and said, "Don't worry, no one will complain."
Xidu Prefecture is the northwestmost part of Da Pei, a desert land with vast land and scarce food and water and food. If you go there, you will be sent to the frontier.
Qi Qi was also shocked by Mrs. Qi's words. Yes, her third brother must have some... problem.
After a pause, his eyes finally fell on Pei Sheng's face, and he said with some force, "Prince Shen, will you go back and complain?"
He naturally has a plan in mind, but there are some things that he really can't say to others, and he can't explain them clearly.
Seeing his mother like this, Qi Moxuan said helplessly, "Mom, my son is going to be the magistrate of Xidu Prefecture. He is a fifth-grade official. He has been promoted. How come he has become a concubine? Don't say random things. Be careful of being overheard by someone who wants to tell you." If we go to the emperor, our son will be punished."
Qi Lao Niang was really confused when she heard this. This happened so suddenly. Xidu Prefecture, where is that place? After asking, she found out that it was a prefectural city in the northwest direction of Da Pei. Northwest, that could be Good place? Her mother-in-law is also a businessman after all, so she still knows some common sense.
"Why don't you be anxious? You are already old, you have a family and a career. Now you have passed the imperial examination and become an official... No, you can't be..." Mrs. Qi looked at Qi Moxuan with a surprised look.
This trip to Xidu Mansion is thousands of miles away. Do you want me to follow you through mountains and rivers, and then go over to help you?
But how can you find a suitable candidate in that damn place? Even your girls in Kyoto don’t like her, how many good girls can there be for you to choose from?”
Seeing the expressions of several people, Qi Moxuan immediately thought something was wrong and hurriedly denied, "No, no, I'm fine."
Qi Moxuan frowned slightly, speechless and choked.
Qi Moxuan was stared at by his mother with dazzling eyes. Looking at Prince Shen's leisurely drinking tea, he still didn't understand anything in his heart. He gritted his teeth shamelessly. What a shameless Prince Shen. This was just to please his mother-in-law. There was no bottom line. ah.
"Mom, the marriage is not urgent." When Qi Moxuan heard that my mother mentioned the marriage again, he quickly stopped her. In the past few months, he had been suffering terribly for this marriage.
"If you want to do practical things, you can't go anywhere. Why should you go to Xidu Mansion? It's so far away. Ouch, Third Brother, your brain got caught in the crack in the door." Mrs. Qi ouch, pointed at Qi Moxuan and said, "I hate that iron can't make steel. "You said, how old are you and you haven't gotten married yet? I have chosen several marriages for you, but you haven't chosen any of them.
When Mrs. Qi heard that she had been convicted, she felt nervous. After looking around for a week, she whispered, "Who can accuse me? There are no outsiders here."
Qi Qi listened without comment, but took her pulse seriously. After a long time, she withdrew her hand.
Qi Lao Niang couldn't wait any longer, and didn't care whether it would interrupt Qi Qi's train of thought. She asked about the result, "How is it? Can there be any repairs?"
"Mom, third brother is fine. There is indeed nothing wrong with his body." As he said this, Qi Qi looked at Qi Moxuan with doubts in her eyes. She was not lying. Third brother was strong and indeed in good health. , but the Longyang habit doesn't affect her ability in that area. No matter how good her medical skills are, she can't find it out. It's at best a psychological problem that she can't understand.
"Is there nothing wrong?" Qi Lao Niang looked calm and was speechless for a moment, just staring at Qi Moxuan.
