Chapter 132

Mr. Qi appeared in the inner room at the right time to receive him.

When he saw two women coming from the Xue family, he felt a little strange, no matter what generation the Xue family is from, there is no shortage of women, why do men seldom come to Ye's mansion?
However, he didn't ask, but just respectfully greeted the Xue family to come in.

After the members of the Xue family entered the door, they first looked around and then sat down.

"This is Mr. Qi, right?" The younger woman looked at Mr. Qi with a warm and gentle smile, "I am Aunt Qiu from the third bedroom of the Xue family."

She introduced herself with a smile on her face, then looked at the arrogant older woman beside her, and introduced, "This is Mrs. Cui, the second bedroom."

Qi Lao smiled, "You two are polite."

Seeing the politeness of the two, he felt a little puzzled, he knew that the two families had had a lot of quarrels this month, but the two who came this time pretended to be nonchalant.

If he hadn't seen the Xue family's hysterical nonsense with his own eyes, he would have believed that the relationship between the two families was still there.

Only then did Madam Cui show a three-pointed smile, "The Patriarch of the Xue family is too busy with business to get away, so he has neglected Ye's mansion, so don't expect to be offended. I came to Ye's mansion on the orders of my master, and this is what he gave to Ye's mansion." A little gift, please accept it with a smile."

As she spoke, she took a brocade box from the maid beside her and put it on the table.

The brocade box was opened, and a luxurious and radiant bracelet and several strings of strange jade beads appeared in front of everyone.

Mrs. Cui explained proudly: "This bracelet is specially customized by our master for the eldest lady. It is made of high-quality suet jade and jadeite. Although the value is not high, it is more exquisite and elegant. This pair of bracelets It is most suitable to give to the young lady. My master said that these things are just a token of affection, and I hope the young lady will not dislike them."

"This..." Qi Lao Qi slightly raised his eyebrows, he knew that Xue's family was the richest, and he had some family background, so it stands to reason that he should be grand in his actions.

It's just funny that in the past ten years or so, the Xue family has searched the Ye Mansion extremely, only thinking of taking the benefits, never like it is today.

Mrs. Cui saw the surprise in Old Qi's eyes, and she couldn't help covering her mouth and snorting, "Does Old Qi think these things are worthless?"

Qi Lao hurriedly laughed and said: "How could it be? The bracelet and jade beads are indeed precious, but" he deliberately prolonged his voice, and said with a righteous face: "These things are too precious, I really dare not accept them for the young lady. Please Madam Cui take it back."

The smile on Mrs. Cui's face froze for a moment, and she continued: "How can this be done? Missy is Huai Tan's biological daughter, and our Xue family can still afford such a small gift."

While she was speaking, she asked the maid at the side to take out several purses from her waist and stuffed them into Old Qi's hands one by one.

"Old Qi, take it, otherwise we won't be able to deal with our master when we go back!" She said while winking at Aunt Qiu, telling the people around her to quickly put the purse into the hands of Mr. Qi .

Aunt Qiu beat the round fan in her hand, and walked forward with some reluctance.

"Qi Laomo wants to decline. We came here with good intentions. It would be bad if the eldest lady misunderstood our Xue family because of the previous incident. Our Xue family also took a fancy to it." Aunt Qiu said here that she wanted to He stopped talking, with a friendly smile on his face.

Qi Lao didn't move, and thought to himself: What are you looking at?How are they worthy of Yefu's things?

However, he couldn't say such words on the spot, so as not to make the other party unable to step down.

Thinking of this, Mr. Qi accepted the purse pretending not to care much, and said solemnly: "Madam is serious. From Aunt Qiu's words, I believe the two of you must have something to discuss when you come here, right? I don't know if there is anything wrong with Madam." You might as well just say it, if you can help, I will definitely help you."

What he said was very beautiful. He didn't say that he could help the Xue family, and he didn't boast about it. He only said that if he could help, just ask, but he didn't promise that he would definitely help.

"Ha ha."

Aunt Qiu laughed dryly a few times, but did not strike up a conversation.

Mrs. Cui disliked this old man's naughtiness very much in her heart, but in the current situation, she couldn't do anything about it, otherwise she would appear to be ignorant, so she could only bear it, and said with a smile: "This matter really needs to trouble Mr. Qi, Our Xue family wants to marry Miss Xiyun."

Old Qi's expression darkened suddenly when he heard this, "I don't know why the Xue family suddenly thought of asking Miss Xiyun to marry? Do you think there is something special about Miss Xiyun?"

"This is the meaning of my master. My master is full of praise for Miss Xiyun's appearance and virtue. In addition to the misunderstanding of Tong Laoliu earlier, I am afraid that this matter will delay Miss Xiyun, so."

Mrs. Cui didn't finish her words, but the meaning was already obvious.

Old Qi couldn't help being angry, "Forgive me for being ignorant, but I don't know who is the lady who asked to marry Xiyun?"

Aunt Qiu smiled flatteringly, "Don't Mrs. Qi know? Xiyun and Tong Laoliu already have a little skin-to-skin relationship, so they are naturally married to him."

Old Qi's eyes shrank suddenly, he never expected that the Xue family would propose such absurd suggestion.

How could the most outstanding maid in Ye Mansion and a lowly hooligan get married?The face of the Xue family is lost?
Not only Old Qi, but even the servants of the Ye Mansion who were sitting on the side opened their eyes wide in astonishment, in disbelief.

Qi Lao slapped the table and stood up, angrily said: "You Xue family mean that you want Xi Yun to marry that Tong Lao Liu and be ruined?!"

"No, no." Aunt Qiu was taken aback by Mr. Qi's sudden anger, and quickly waved her hands to deny, "My master also thought that although Tong Lao Liu was ineffective, it was a pity that he had already got involved with Miss Xiyun. Miss Xiyun It's like a fairy descending to the earth, but now she has a bad reputation. Instead of taking advantage of those lowly embryos, it's better to let her marry Tong Lao Liu in a glorious manner. She can get our care in Xue's family, which can be regarded as a favor from our Xue family to Ye's mansion .”

Aunt Qiu spoke clearly and logically, and it seemed to be well-founded.

If people who don't know the inside story heard these words, they might be moved by her sincerity and consideration.

"Excuse me for my blunt words, Master Xue's way of doing things like this is a bit difficult for others, right? Xiyun is my wife's big maid, how can I allow others to trample on me at will?"

Qi Lao's attitude was very firm, he didn't seem to be discussing anything at all, more like he was angry with someone.

"Old Qi doesn't know something. Tong Lao Liu's relatives died early, and he has always been an orphan and widow. Now that their family has undergone tremendous changes, they just want to live a good life. Moreover, under the eyes of the Xue family, he is determined not to Dare to mess around."

Mrs. Cui glanced calmly at the purse that Elder Qi had accepted, and then continued: "It just so happens that Miss Xiyun is in such a predicament, which is pitiful. My master has no choice but to do this."

Old Qi snorted coldly, "You guys will make excuses for yourself. If Xue's family really has a conscience, why didn't they drive Tong Lao Liu out of the mansion? Instead, let him stay in Xue's mansion. Yun took revenge, and also damaged the reputation of the Xue family!"

Mrs. Cui was choked to death, she didn't expect that the old man was so difficult, he didn't buy it at all, he looked like he was going to make a big deal of this matter, she hurriedly said: "Old Qi calm down, let's come here this time , just to appease Miss Xiyun's anger."
