Chapter 55 Self-righteous
The old man, Ximen Zhi, rested in the house for a while and came out around dinner time. He was about 60 years old and looked in good spirits. His hair was only gray, his waist was straight, and he was wearing a blue shirt, which made him look more elegant.

"Grandpa!" Ximen Kai was talking to his mother in the outer hall. When he saw his grandfather coming out, he bowed deeply to the old man.

"Kaier, you look pretty good." Ximen smiled and waved his hand gently, sitting down by himself.Look at Ximen Zhi and his wife and Ximen Zai next to them, "It's rare for a family to get together, let's have dinner!"

Ximen Zhi and Ximen Zai got up together. Mrs. Ximen Zai asked someone to pass the food around, and Ximen Zhi helped the old man sit up.

Ximen Zhi is also a very elegant middle-aged man, about 40 years old. He is also dressed in blue cloth, with a Confucian scarf of the same color tied on his head. Standing next to the old man, they are a real father and son.

Mrs. Ximenzhi is also very simple and seems to be older than Ximenzhi.She was dressed in coarse silk and only had a silver hairpin on her head, which was completely different from Mrs. Simon Zai's jewels.But with a calm smile on her face, she extended her hand to Ximen Kai, but her eyes were full of love.

Although Ximen Zai was dressed in plain clothes, his blue silk gown and the soft hat of the same color on his head were inlaid with a transparent jasper, which also showed his current identity.

"By the way, second brother, have you gone to Qiao's house to hire me?" The old man picked up his chopsticks and looked at Ximen Zai as if he thought of something.

Ximen looked at his father and elder brother again, and hurriedly said, "Kai'er is not busy with the appointment!"

"Kai'er!" Ximen looked straight at Changsun, not angry, but with a questioning look on his face.

"Sorry, Grandpa, the Qiao family saw what their grandson meant and rejected him directly." Ximen Kai thought about it, raised his head, smiled and said frankly.

When neither the old man nor Ximen Zhi and his wife responded, Ximen Zhi's wife, Kong, slapped her chopsticks and asked, "Why?"

Mrs. Ximen Zai's sons died one after another, and now she is particularly sensitive. Ximen Kai was rejected by a small official's family.What does it mean?Are the Ximen family already so looked down upon?

"Who refused? Qiao Dayong!" Ximen Zhi wiped his mouth, put down the white silk handkerchief, and looked at Ximen Kai.

"Master Qiao and Capt. Qiao both rejected it." Ximen Kai felt a little sad.

"What's their reason?" Ximen raised his head and thought for a moment.

"Master Qiao didn't give a reason, but just said that this incident didn't happen; but Captain Qiao felt that Qingqing was a bit shy, and he didn't want Qingqing to marry far away." Ximen smiled wryly.

"What does that mean?" Mrs. Ximenzhi frowned.

"That is, unless I never leave Kaifeng for the rest of my life." Ximenkai let out a long sigh and looked at the dishes on the table. There were six people on the table, and the table was full. It was really a delicacy, no matter which dish it was. The dishes are all delicious and delicious.

Ximen Kai picked up a sea cucumber roasted with green onions in front of him, which was his favorite, stuffed it into his mouth, nodded, and called back, "Send this dish to Qiao's house."

Everyone looked at him, but the person behind him still came over, put it in the basket, and ran out quickly.

"No one in the Qiao family knows how to cook?" The old man looked at the food on the table and smiled, "Can Qingqing know how to cook?"

"No, she spends most of her time reading and doing research." Ximenkai smiled lightly.

"Forget it! You are the eldest son and grandson, and you are the only third generation of Ximen's family. Naturally, your wife must be generous and decent. It doesn't matter whether she can cook or not, but she must be able to manage the family's finances." Ximen frowned again. The father picked up a chopstick and said, "Dad, Kai'er has a lot of responsibilities now. I really feel that the Qiao family is not suitable. It just so happens that they also feel that it is not suitable, so just like Master Qiao said, just pretend it didn't happen." "Open." Son, do you still want to insist now?" Ximen lowered his head and took a mouthful of rice, choked slowly, and then looked at Ximen Kai.

"I don't know." Ximen Kai thought seriously for a moment before smiling bitterly.

"Why?" Mrs. Xie of Ximenzhi asked gently.

"I never asked what Qingqing means. If she is interested in her son, then the son will kneel down and beg Master Qiao and Butou Qiao for permission." Ximen Kai didn't say anything later, but the meaning was very clear. If Qingqing also refused, he would decide give up.

"Ah, you haven't asked Miss Qiao what she meant?" Mrs. Kong of Ximenzai jumped up. She thought they were in love, so she forced her family to propose marriage, "Kailer, do you know Miss Qiao? "

"Yes, we met several times because of Capt. Qiao." Ximen Kai couldn't tell his second uncle and second aunt that Qingqing was helping solve the case.Lord Tie mentioned this in his letter to Ximen Zhi. This made Ximen Kai very unhappy. Even now, he did not want to say it at the table, "She is a well-behaved girl and very smart. So I like her very much." She, she just doesn’t know it yet.”

"Second brother, help me send a message to Mr. Qiao. I'll treat him to dinner tomorrow to reminisce about old times." Ximen nodded and looked at Ximen Zai.

Ximen's brows twitched again: "Dad, Ximen's family..."

"The Ximen family is not under your control now, but mine." Ximen looked at Ximen Zai coldly.

"Yes!" Ximen held back his anger and lowered his head in response.

"Kai'er, is Miss Qiao beautiful?" Kong looked back at Ximen Zai.

"I think when she is the most beautiful, I can't see her face at all. In the eyes of the world, she should be beautiful." Ximen Kai thought for a while and smiled softly.

"So she's still beautiful!" Kong snorted. Her feelings for Ximen Kai were very complicated.When she had a son, she was jealous of Ximen Kai's status as the eldest grandson.Later, she had no son, and she became even more jealous of Ximenkai because Ximenkai was still alive.

Just when she was angry with the Qiao family, it was because the Qiao family rejected Ximen Kai instead of the Ximen family. It did not mean that she supported this matter.

Now, she was subconsciously telling the old man that his proud eldest grandson was also a womanizer.

"Grandpa, you seem to have a good relationship with Mr. Qiao?" Ximen Kai turned to Ximen Zhi. He didn't care at all whether he was a drunkard or a womanizer in the eyes of his second aunt. He just knew that he wasn't.

"Well, when I was the governor of Kaifeng Mansion, Master Qiao was the head catcher. He was a very capable catcher." Ximen thought for a moment and shook his head with a smile.

"Master Qiao will investigate the case?" Ximen Kai was really surprised.

"You, like your second uncle, are still habitually self-righteous. The Qiao family is deeply rooted in Kaifeng Mansion. There are things that we can't do, but it doesn't mean that the Qiao family can't do it. So the Qiao family also has its own limitations? Isn't it just Qiao Dayong? The reason why he is willing to let his daughter leave Kaifeng Mansion is because he will be powerless after leaving Kaifeng Mansion. He wants to protect his only precious daughter. If Qingqing has the same temperament as her mother, Qiao Dayong will not agree to you marrying Qingqing even if he kills her. "Ximen shook his head and sighed softly.

 Thank you all for your support. Please support me every day. It seems that it will be over by the beginning of December.What do I want to say here? By the way, the beginning of the first episode of "Celebrating More Than Years" was changed well. It made the time travel rational and captured the whims of a student.It's very suitable, but I don't think the actors are good enough.Really, including Uncle Ming's performance, I felt it wasn't good enough, and that Gao Shuguang, who was such a handsome guy back then, is really blind now.And speaking the lines is like speaking the lines, which makes people feel fake at first glance.It's not like he's convinced, Li Qin, his face looks like it hasn't been washed.And Li Xiaoran, what’s wrong with his head?well!It is true that TV dramas are a comprehensive art. I have to praise Yu Zheng for this. Putting aside the issue of plagiarism, his TV dramas are really good at persuading the truth!
