Exclusive golden branch

Chapter 526 Confrontation
Although Mrs. Li was happy to see her stepson and daughter-in-law Qi being put on stage, she had to do her best. After all, at General Li's place, everyone had to be harmonious and respectful.

But... what does this have to do with Jiang Shaoyan?She eats and wears and doesn't use Qi's.Although Qi's status is noble, everything she has comes from her background and family. In this case, she must always take care of the family behind her, and she is destined not to act willfully.

What Jiang Zhao is doing at this time is not to mention the wife of a great general, oh no, not yet, the future wife of the great general can’t be wrong, even the county magistrate she just raised her face to sacrifice, can’t put a word “wrong” .

Since she was right and the truth was on her side, Jiang Shaoyan naturally stopped being polite.

After all, if the reason is not here, Qi will not let her go easily.Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken the lead when she never provoked her just now.

Jiang Shaoyan picked up the small bowl of milk crisps on the banquet and dug another spoonful, smiled and responded to Mrs. Li, looked at Mrs. Qi, and said, "I am young and ignorant, please don't blame me, madam. This crisp The taste of the mountain is really good, Madam, eat more!"

Qi looked at the tall mountains of milk crisps piled up in the bowl with an ugly expression. He didn't like the crispy mountains in the first place, but now he couldn't eat them anymore.

The girl didn't show Qi's face at all, she didn't realize it, she dug up two spoonfuls of milk crisps, and asked Qi: "Why doesn't Madam eat it? Are you still fighting with me?"

Qi's face turned pale, and she was about to speak.

Mrs. Li, the host of the banquet at the side, coughed dryly, and helped her out: "This is Miss Jiang Si, how much you blame our eldest daughter-in-law, she has had her period these few days, and she is not very clean!"

This flower viewing banquet is full of women, so it doesn't hurt to talk about such things.

It sounds like Mrs. Li is indeed helping to smooth things over, but... the girl put down the small silver spoon in her hand, sighed meaningfully, and said, "Oh, that's a coincidence!"

This reaction... Mrs. Li, who was helping to smooth things over, lowered her eyes, looked at the mountain of milk and crisps in the bowl, and just wanted to laugh.

In fact, the menstruation incident is not a false one.The eldest daughter-in-law's menstruation is indeed these few days, but Miss Jiang Si's meaningful "coincidence" on the opposite side sounds like Qi's evasive words.

But what did that matter to her?Looking back, General Li asked, it wasn't that she didn't help her step-son and daughter-in-law, it was the step-son and daughter-in-law who picked the words first.

As the saying goes, persimmons are only picked when they are soft.When the stepson and daughter-in-law come, isn't that the idea?I just didn't expect that the persimmon that I was staring at looked soft on the outside, but it was as hard as a stone on the inside. When I kicked it, my foot hurt. Who is to blame?
Qi's face was extremely ugly: this thorny, fat girl was much more difficult than she imagined, once she got hold of her, she refused to let go.

She still needs to save face and has some concerns, after all, she is a person of this status.But this girl is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, instead she is willing to go out.

never mind!Qi couldn't help but took a few deep breaths, and told herself: Why did my own jade collide with the rubble?If it is broken, what loss can the rubble have?Instead, it is jade, and the loss can be huge.

The flower viewing feast, which was full of laughter and laughter before, quieted down when Qi appeared. After all, everyone has their own thoughts. The second son of Li has only one wife, and some things are too obvious. If he is not selected, he will marry his wife later. A son-in-law will inevitably cause the husband-in-law to be jealous, and the husband and wife will not get along well.

Although the quietness of the flower viewing banquet has little to do with Qi himself, but this does not prevent Jiang Shaoyan from digging the milk crisp mountain, and said with a half-smile: "Madam is full of aura. Whenever people appear, they call this flower viewing feast." It's as quiet as Madam's one-man stage!"

This time, the flower viewing feast, which was still slightly rustling, was so quiet that even a needle could be heard.The female relatives in the audience would have been sitting and doing some activities, or picking grapes on the table and eating two grains, making some slight noises, but as soon as these words came out, even the noises disappeared.

The scene was surprisingly cold.

A group of female relatives sat down and looked at me and I looked at you, but none of them "tacitly agreed" to speak.

After all, ordinary people can't do such offending things.Those who would do such things, such as Miss Cao's family in the previous round, would not be able to receive invitations to this banquet.

Qi's face was very ugly, that fat girl obviously knew that she had offended her, and also knew that she held a grudge against her, and if she had a chance in the future, she would never let her go, so she became more open-minded.

Of course, Jiang Shaoyan will give face to the host of the banquet, but the current host of the banquet is obviously insincere in helping to smooth things over. She is selfishly happy to see Qi's bad luck, so naturally she doesn't have to give Mrs. Li too much face, and continues to pester Li. The eldest lady felt at ease.

Everyone is offended, so just offend to death.As for the purpose of coming to this banquet... Jiang Shaoyan felt that it was unnecessary to establish a "dignified and virtuous" image in front of Mrs. Li.The future wife of this Second Young Master Li has nothing to do with her, so why "dignified and virtuous"?
Before she could speak, Jiang Shaoyan sneered again, and said: "I heard from the storyteller in the city that the Longxi Army changed several military regulations last year. These military regulations were originally set by General Li. They have been set for more than 20 years. Mr. Li, however, just said a word, directly changing the rules of General Li for more than 20 years. It seems that the military will wish to congratulate Madam in advance for winning the position of Mrs. General!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of all the people present changed suddenly, even Mrs. Li Bo, who was at the top, was obviously taken aback for a moment, and then looked at her with a little surprise.

His gaze was filled with surprise, astonishment and many other emotions, but there was no dislike or disgust.

Qi's face was astonishingly pale, trembling all over, not sure if it was from anger or anger.

It is probably the first time for Qi himself to encounter such a situation of gnawing at her tightly.

"Kuang Tang!" With a sound, a fruit plate on the table was overturned on the ground, and at the end of the first row, a pretty girl with buns on the table seemed to be shocked and knocked down the table. The fruit plate, the grapes in the fruit plate rolled all over the ground.

Everyone looked over in search of prestige, and the maidservants standing behind hurried forward to pick up the scattered grapes and broken fruit plates.

The girl seemed to be aware of her gaffe, she raised her head to meet the eyes of everyone looking at her, smiled, and explained: "A dragonfly flew onto the plate earlier, and I am most afraid of such things."

Mrs. Li said with a smile: "What's so strange about my daughter's family being afraid of such things? The two little girls in my family are afraid of even a bug! Miss Mo San, don't panic, sit down!"

Qi's complexion was astonishingly pale when he heard Mrs. Li say "Miss Mo San", his complexion was even more ugly, the whole person seemed to be on the verge of fainting.

This reaction... Jiang Shaoyan glanced at Qi Shi over there with some surprise, then turned her head to look at the pretty girl with a double comb.

The clothes on her body are not very rich, but those hands... Jiang Shaoyan's eyes paused for a moment on the hands that were hanging on her sides and did not deliberately cover up, and when she saw the callused area on her hands, her eyes flickered Flash, vaguely understood something.

If that's the case... the sentence I said just now was really outspoken to Qi.

But... Jiang Shaoyan felt that it would be a good thing for her to find something to do for Qi who had already offended her so that she would not have to provoke trouble in the future.

As for her "sharp-toothed" image today, Jiang Shaoyan doesn't care, after all, no mother-in-law would like a girl with "sharp-toothed" like her.

Although Mrs. Li's flower viewing banquet was not bad, Jiang Shaoyan felt that it was enough to stop here.She doesn't want to participate in the next flower viewing banquet anymore, so it's better for Mrs. Li to kick her out of the "wife selection" list early.

Jiang Shaoyan felt that it was almost done, and what she said not only dug a hole for the Qi family, but also prevented the possibility of the next flower viewing party, so she accepted it as soon as she saw it, smiled, and said: "It's just a joke, Ma'am, don't take it seriously!"

Qi's face was sullen, and she looked at her coldly.

Jiang Shaoyan got up and said again: "Little girl still has something to do at home, I want to go back to see my father earlier, so I will take my leave first!"

Mrs. Li looked at her with a smile still in her eyes, and said gently: "Be the most filial to a woman, you should go back earlier!"

After Jiang Shaoyan saluted her, she took Xiangli and left.

After the girl left, Mrs. Li turned her head to look at the ugly Qi beside her, and comforted her: "Young girl's words are too many to count, no one here will take her words seriously, don't take it to heart!"

Qi Shi bit her lip and said nothing.

What the mother-in-law said was nice, how could she not take her words to heart at the moment?

If it was said that she could still hope to hide the things here, but when she saw Miss Mo San, she knew that she couldn't hide it.It is estimated that in the evening, the husband and father-in-law will know what happened here.

Ms. Mo San is the daughter of General Li's able-bodied general. It's not because Mrs. Li wanted Miss Mo San to be her daughter-in-law, but her father-in-law specially arranged for her to come.

My father-in-law has meat on the palms and backs of his hands, so he wants to make it with mud.Although both are sons, but the husband is the eldest son and lost his mother at a young age, the father-in-law feels sorry for the husband who has been begging for life under the stepmother early on, so he is naturally biased in his daily life.

Earlier, the step-brother's marriage went wrong, and the mother-in-law took away the right to decide the marriage. Although my father-in-law felt sorry for the young son whose marriage was not going well and compromised, he was still worried, so he arranged for General Mo to marry him. The daughter came to the table, which is equivalent to eyeliner.

General Mo Shen only obeyed his father-in-law, and she and her husband were happy to come to this banquet, but now... this happiness has become a big trouble.

My father-in-law has been in charge of the Longxi army for many years, don't look like he is a rough man, but his mind is delicate.

That fat girl... Qi was so angry that she wanted to bite her: she said something casually, and then she slapped her ass and left, but what she and her husband had to face next was the real trouble.

It's as if General Li is a father and would pity his son Li Xuanjing, but at the same time he would use his son as a pawn to fight for some rights without hesitation.

It is true that the father-in-law is helping her husband to suppress Li Xuan, but it can be related to the "belonging of the Longxi Army" that the fat girl said, but it cannot be generalized.

This kind of thing happened all the time. During a flower viewing feast, Qi was naturally absent-minded and confused, and left hastily.

In the evening, the husband didn't come back as usual and went back to the courtyard, but went to General Li's study, Qi knew that there was trouble.

Sure enough, after Longxi Army Deputy General Li Dagongzi came back from General Li Dagong's study, he immediately waved back his servants, then looked at her, sighed, and said: "Ma'am, you are also a very smart person on weekdays." , how did you do such a thing today?"

Qi couldn't say anything, she never bowed her head to the young master Li who was inferior to her in appearance and methods in all aspects.Mr. Li has always praised her, such as "Madam is amazing", "Madam is really smart", "Madam is really good and helpful", and so on. This is the first time since she entered the door that she was asked by her husband, "How did you do this today?" Waiting for something to come?"

Qi's face was extremely dry, but she could only admit her mistake and said: "I am too busy. I thought that my cousin went to Huixi two days ago in coarse clothes and linen. Before leaving, I even took a bite of my favorite milk cake I haven't even eaten the mountain yet. She is still hanging around in front of me, eating milk and crispy mountain, feeling angry for a while, so she slapped her a few words."

"I know that you are close to your cousin sisters," Mr. Li softened his heart a little after hearing that, "It's just that I don't think so, that uncle Dongping's fat daughter is so difficult to deal with, this is going to be troublesome!"

When Qi heard the words, she hurriedly asked, "What did father-in-law say?"

Mr. Li glanced at her, and said: "Father didn't scold me, he just told me that my second brother broke up two marriages one after another in order not to fight against the brothers. His marriage wouldn't be so difficult, it's all for me, let me I will take care of my second brother."

These words... General Li used to say that, after all, as a father, it was just peace, and he hoped that the two sons could maintain the superficial peace.

After Mr. Li said this, there was no smile on his face, but he said with a more serious expression: "Father also said that Xuan Jing would not fight with me for the Longxi Army, so why am I so anxious?"

If he competed with his second brother Xuan, he knew that his father would favor him, but now it seems that General Li is talking about Li Xuanjing, but it is not the case.

The words at the flower appreciation banquet reached the ears of General Li. He was just fifty years old. Because of practicing martial arts all year round, General Li, who was in good health, already had a lump in his son's heart.

This result is not unexpected, Mr. Li's face is a little ugly.

The restructuring of the Longxi Army last year was actually done on purpose by Dad, in order to establish his prestige in the Longxi Army.When doing these things at that time, General Li was even the pusher behind him.

But right now, the pusher became suspicious of him because of what he said at the flower viewing banquet.

The Longxi Army was going to be handed over to the eldest son, and he would occasionally establish his prestige for the eldest son.But for General Li, the time to hand it over to the eldest son is not now, but in the future, when he is exhausted.

If the eldest son wants to replace him early because of his connivance, this is something that General Li will not allow.

Some people are worried about this, and some people are happy.

In the evening, Li Xuan walked into Mrs. Li's room, couldn't help laughing and said: "Today's flower viewing feast is really a spring breeze, I was afraid that my father would not allow my plan, but now that the spring breeze is coming , Daddy can probably pass that test!"
