Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 60 The Shi Family and the Xiao Family
Master Huixin led the high nanny who was serving Mrs. Xiao to the Fahua Temple outside the city, and found the courtyard where Shi Yiqing was. Fourth Miss finally returned to the capital, and she was very worried, hoping that Fourth Miss could go to visit with Seventh Miss."

Xiao Yongqi, who hid in the room and eavesdropped, heard that Nanny Gao had taken her by the way, rushed out in a rage, with her hands on her hips, and said, "I knew it would be good for you to come! Mother promised a long time ago." Let me stay with my cousin for a while, but now it’s only a few days, and you are holding a chicken feather as an arrow, trying to lure me back?! Let me tell you clearly, there is no way! I will stay here and not leave , see what you can do to me!"

Nanny Gao thought she was used to such scenes, her expression did not change, she bowed to Xiao Yongqi and said unhurriedly: "Returning to Miss Seven, this servant just came to convey Madam's original words, and never conveyed Madam's words." The meaning has changed, if Miss Seven doesn't believe it, you can go back home and ask Madam."

Xiao Yongqi was unreasonable at first, and she still wanted to stir up three points, she said relentlessly: "You still dare to talk back to this lady, don't you? Don't think I don't know how smart you are, you clearly want to deceive me Go home, and then let my mother lock me in the house and never let me out again, will you?! Huh, don't think about it!"

Shi Yiqing who was sitting by the side pulled her lips and smiled calmly. Although she felt that Yongqi Xiao was really unreasonable, and her noisy temperament caused her some headaches, but she couldn't help feeling a little envious in her heart, envious of her brutality. Unreasonable, and envious of her noise, I think this is a patent that only spoiled people have.

Shi Yiqing looked at Yongqi Xiao's reluctance to leave, got up and walked to her side, tugged at her sleeves, and said softly to Nanny Gao: "Mommy is tired all the way, I think she must be a little hungry, why don't you stay here Eat some snacks, drink a cup of hot tea, and wait for a while, presumably Seventh Miss is willing to leave with Mammy when her anger subsides."

Grandma Gao leaned over to thank her, and Shi Yiqing asked Grandma Xu to accompany her, which was considered to be a landlord's kindness.

Xiao Yongqi folded her arms around her chest angrily, as if she didn't want to say any more, she turned around and went to the inner room, and slammed the curtain and did not speak.Shi Yiqing, who was following behind, saw the entanglement of the curtains hanging on the door in front of him, turned his head with a smile indifferently, and said to Mo Xian who was behind him: "You go outside and guard first, don't let others in."

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Shi Yiqing lifted the curtain and stepped into the room steadily, raised her eyes and saw Xiao Yongqi squinting at people, with an indescribably charming appearance, she stopped and walked to the soft couch beside her He sat up and sat down, and said with a slow smile on his lips: "Okay, how long are you going to play with your temper? Listen to my advice, no matter how much you hate Gao Nanny, you shouldn't be in front of so many people." You told her not to come down. I know what you are thinking, I am afraid that if you go back like this, the county lord and Mrs. Xiao will not let you go free again, but you are the young lady of the Xiao family after all, and you have to go back after all, don’t you? You can't stay in other people's temples all your life. Could it be that you also want to twist your hair and become an aunt?"

Although Xiao Yongqi was no longer angry after hearing this, she still said angrily: "Could it be possible that you let me go back like this? You don't want to ask me, what kind of person I am Xiao Yongqi, how can I say anything Do one thing, and now I say I won’t go back, so I won’t go back!”

Shi Yiqing shook his head with a sigh, and said with a light smile: "I said, Miss Xiao, you are not afraid to offend your grandma and your mother, and then you will really ignore you and let you be betrayed by the Xiao family." Going to the country of Java? Well, don’t be awkward anymore. How about this, if you promise me to go back to Xiao’s house, I can promise you one thing right now, how about it?”

"Really? Don't go back on your word?" Xiao Yongqi walked up to Shi Yiqing, pulled Shi Yiqing's hands with joy on her face, and said with a smile, "Well, I ask you to promise me to accompany the emperor, and let's go hunting together on horseback, okay? "

Shi Yiqing smiled helplessly: "My good lady, why are you still thinking about this matter? That Mu Weidao has no sincerity, and has never come to teach you how to ride a horse these days. How can you just let such a strange wood Do you like it so much?"

Xiao Yongqi was tangled in the corners of her clothes, and when she was thinking of her sweetheart, her pink cheeks flushed instantly, she lowered her head and said softly: "You are the wood who doesn't understand the style, Brother Mu... Brother Mu is fine."

She thought about it carefully, and felt that such a rebuttal was not strong enough. After carefully sorting out her emotions, she sneered and said to Shi Yiqing: "Anyway, I don't allow you to say that I am Brother Mu! No matter how incomprehensible Brother Mu is, he is better than you." The nun is better off!"

Shi Yiqing hurriedly comforted Xiao Yongqi, who seemed to be stepped on her tail, and said with a smile: "Okay, I am a nun, so I live in the temple. Seventh Miss is not a nun, so she doesn't need to live in the temple, she can go home, isn't it?" ?"

Xiao Yongqi raised her eyebrows and said, "Are you trying to drive me away? Hmph, that's a good idea! Madam Gao came here this time on the orders of my grandma, to take you back, not me."

Shi Yiqing was slightly startled, and said in doubt: "Didn't you tell me to go back to Xiao's house with you to see the county lord?"

Xiao Yongqi was also puzzled, stretched out her hand and scratched her head, tilted her head and thought for a while, and felt that it would be beneficial and harmless to go back with Shi Yiqing, so she didn't worry about the purpose of the Xiao family's letting her go back, and immediately smiled and said : "Anyway, I'm relying on you now. Wherever you go now, I will follow you. Don't you want to get rid of me!"

Shi Yiqing shook his head helplessly and smiled, jokingly said: "Could it be possible that I want to become a monk in this Fahua Temple, and you have to follow? All right, I will accompany you back to Xiao's house, and I have met the county magistrate and Ma'am is."

Because it was late, Mother Xu was worried that it was already curfew time when she came out of Xiao's house, and she was afraid that Xiao's house would not let her return in the middle of the night rashly, so she would definitely stay and rest, so she insisted on leading Jianliu and Mo Xian Follow Shi Yiqing into the city.Shi Yiqing had no choice but to let Nanny Xu go to collect the chariots and horses, and together with Xiao Yongqi's maid and nanny, the group returned to Xiao's house in a low-key manner.

Shi Yiqing was supported by Mo Xian into Xiao's house, looking through the veil on the cone hat, she could only see a courtyard with a unique Jiangnan style in front of her eyes that was getting darker.Reflecting the slanting sun on the wall of the courtyard, looking out, above the meandering lake, there is a courtyard in the water, like a beautiful woman living alone.

Shi Yiqing looked at the water garden, stopped involuntarily, his eyes were slightly frozen, his thoughts drifted with the wind, and gradually drifted away.

She still vaguely remembered that when she was very young, Shi Xuanfu had not married far away, and she would follow Shi Xuanfu all day long, even when she came to Xiao's house.Shi Yiqing still remembers, Shi Xuanfu, her elder sister was standing in the courtyard, dancing in the wind, the ribbons wrapped around her body fluttered with the wind, the autumn sun poured on her body, looking against the light, As beautiful as a fairy.

"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Yongqi followed Shi Yiqing's line of sight and asked puzzledly.

Shi Yiqing stopped recalling, and said lightly with downcast eyes: "It's nothing. It's just that I don't know why, I always think about the past."

Xiao Yongqi frowned suspiciously at first, then stretched out her hand to hold Shi Yiqing's hand with some trepidation, and asked in an erratic voice: "You, do you still remember the things I bullied you before? If you are really angry, I'll compensate you, so don't worry about it."

Shi Yiqing never thought that Xiao Yongqi would be so low-key, looked up at her timid and uneasy look, she was a bit like a puppy who was afraid of being abandoned by her master, although she was puzzled in her heart, she smiled warmly on her face, and supported her with her backhand. Touching the back of her hand, he said in a slow voice: "It's been so many years, I've long forgotten it. It's getting late, don't make the county magistrate and madam anxious, let's hurry up and follow the mother."

Xiao Yongqi tugged Shi Yiqing's sleeve relentlessly, shook her head and said, "If you don't tell me what you were thinking just now, I won't let you go. Neither of us wants to leave!"

Shi Yiqing said angrily and with a funny smile: "I really forgot all the previous things. At that time, after all, I was young and knew something. It was just two children playing around, and I forgot it afterwards. Now You and I have already grown up, why should I not forget these things?"

Xiao Yongqi hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily, let go of Shi Yiqing's sleeve, and said in a brisk voice: "I don't think you are such a preoccupied person, I have forgotten everything that happened so long ago, no You still remember the reason. Well, I'll take you to see grandma and mother, and don't make them wait too long."

After all, Xiao Yongqi was still a child who had not grown up, and she forgot all the previous things in a flash, and happily dragged Shi Yiqing to the courtyard of the Yinshan County Lord, bouncing around very lively, but Not a bit of the prudence that a young lady should have, and the nurse who was waiting on the side was sweating anxiously, but it was not easy to remind everyone in public.

Walking in front of the Yinshan county lord's courtyard, there was a big maid waiting at the door, and when she saw it was Yongqi Xiao, she hurriedly stepped forward to pay her respects, raised her eyes slightly and saw Shi Yiqing standing side by side with Yongqi Xiao, and immediately thought that this was the Shi's house Shi Yiqing, the third and fourth lady who was not favored, lowered her head and bowed to the outer salute, and said slowly: "You two ladies, the county master is not feeling well, Madam ordered me to come here to welcome the two ladies to the side room for a short rest. .”

Shi Yiqing lowered her eyes and said politely: "I have to trouble my sister to lead the way."

Entering the side room, Mammy Xu led Jianliu and Mo Xian to serve Shi Yiqing, who was accompanying her, changed into a multi-colored wing-to-wing long skirt, re-dressed her hair, and washed away her exhausted appearance from the journey just now.

Mo Xian, who was standing behind and waiting, looked at Shi Yiqing through the bronze mirror, smiled and said: "Miss is dressed like this, she is very energetic. I think the county magistrate and Mrs. Xiao will be happy to see her after a while."

Shi Yiqing smiled but said nothing, looked slightly sideways at himself in the bronze mirror holding an indifferent smile, and let his thoughts wander.

Nowadays, the situation in Beijing is unpredictable, not only the officials of the previous court fought fiercely, but even the ladies in the courtyard were never idle, and at this moment, the Lord of Yinshan County actually met her by name and called her. With Xiao Yongqi's name, what exactly does she want to do?

The little girl with a general horn lowered her eyes and frowned, stepped in slowly, and bowed down to pay her respects: "The county lord invites Miss Fourth."
