The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 451 Seeing the Princess (3)
Xiao Mingyu said expressionlessly: "Granddaughter is convinced. It's just that it takes time to contact the princess, and it can't be done in a day or two."

Mr. Xiao smiled and said, "Naturally. The old man will give you ten days. I will know the result within ten days. Otherwise, you should stop doing business and just close the door. Your five-room expenses are also up to you. Responsible."

Xiao Mingyu said, "Thank you for your tolerance, my granddaughter will definitely finish this matter within ten days."

Mr. Xiao smiled with satisfaction, "It's so good. Go down and rest, and go back to the city tomorrow morning."

"Granddaughter obeys."

Xiao Mingyu walked out of Mr. Xiao's study with a blank expression, and met the wife of Fushoutang outside, "Miss Seven, the old lady has heard that you are back, and wants to see you."

Xiao Mingyu nodded slightly, "I should go to pay my respects to the old lady as soon as possible. I also ask my aunt to lead the way, and I will go there now."

Mrs. Xiao was paralyzed on one side of her body, and was supported to sit on the Taishi chair.When Xiao Mingyu came in, he saw a face that was half fierce and half stiff.I haven't seen Mrs. Xiao for a while, but when I saw this person and this expression again, Xiao Mingyu was taken aback.

Xiao Mingyu settled down and went up to greet the old lady respectfully, "The granddaughter has seen the old lady, please greet the old lady. The old lady is in better health."

The old lady Xiao made a whining noise, and Nanny Wen said beside her, "Miss Seven has a heart, and the old lady is in better health."

The old lady Xiao stared at Xiao Mingyu, "You, Zhu, you bastard..."

Mother Wen translated: "Miss Seven, the old lady knows about Aunt Zhu. Since Aunt Zhu did such a thing that is not as good as a pig or a dog, why didn't she send Aunt Zhu back to be punished? Instead, she let her go and gave her back. Seventh girl, you are worthy of the Xiao family by doing this, but you have kept the rules of the Xiao family. "

Xiao Mingyu sneered secretly, the old lady Xiao's body has become like this, she doesn't know how to stop for a while, and still wants to control the entire Xiao family.It's no wonder that Mrs. Xiao's health is not getting better.Xiao Mingyu lowered his head, concealing the sarcasm in his heart, and said: "Reporting to the old lady, the granddaughter has already reported the whole story to the old man. The old man has already punished the granddaughter. Old lady, you are not in good health. Let's rest more. The old man will take care of things outside."

The old lady Xiao whimpered, "You, you disobedient...disobedient..."

"Old lady, you can't get angry. Dr. Li has said that your body is most afraid of getting angry and angry. The best way is to rest and listen to happy things, so that your body can recover. Old lady, granddaughter is for you Considering her health, it is difficult for the granddaughter to say more about Aunt Zhu. Since the old lady doesn't like to see her granddaughter, then the granddaughter will leave now, so as not to make the old lady angry. Old lady, do you think this is okay?"

Xiao Mingyu actually asked Nanny Wen, and seeing that Nanny Wen didn't object, Xiao Mingyu said, "Old lady, the granddaughter will leave now."

Xiao Mingyu left Fushou Hall in three steps at a time, and finally the depressed feeling was gone.

Xiao Mingpei came to Xiao Mingyu immediately after learning the news of Xiao Mingyu's return.

Xiao Mingyu was also very happy to see Xiao Mingpei.She asked with concern: "I was called back by my fourth aunt last time, didn't I get scolded?"

Xiao Mingpei sighed, "It really hit the spot. My mother scolded me, saying that I didn't care about my own safety and ran to Baoshan Temple to find someone. What if I was captured by the spirits? Okay. I told my mother that the ghost rumors are false, but my mother didn't believe it at all, and said that I was talking nonsense and didn't learn well. Mingyu, do you think I am wronged or not. "

Xiao Mingyu laughed, "Fourth aunt is also worried about your safety, that's why. By the way, what have you been up to recently?"

"Isn't it because I was busy learning the rules and sewing. My mother started housekeeping, but it didn't go well, and she even got a lot more tempered. Recently, I am very strict. If there is something wrong, she will be punished." Curse me. Fortunately, you came back today, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come out and breathe a sigh of relief."

The pitiful appearance of Xiao Mingpei made Xiao Mingyu laugh. "Is it as serious as you said?"

Xiao Mingpei nodded again and again, "Of course. You don't know, Xiao Mingqi is worse than me. The aunt locked her in the boudoir, and made people guard the courtyard gate. Now she has no freedom at all."

Xiao Mingyu frowned, "Why is Auntie doing this? Even if she disciplines Ming Qi like this, Ming Qi's marriage cannot be settled. Besides, Auntie doesn't think it's too late?"

"My mother said the same thing. Who knows what my aunt thinks. In short, Ming Qi can't go out now, and is detained every day." Xiao Mingpei looked around, lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "You Could it be that the eldest aunt has been deprived of the right to be a housekeeper and has nothing to do, so she will find a way to torment Ming Qi."

Xiao Mingyu said, "I don't know about this. By the way, is there a letter from the capital? Such a big thing happened, it's impossible for uncle to have no reaction at all."

"Who says it's not." Xiao Mingpei took Xiao Mingyu to a secluded place, and then said: "I heard from my mother that the letter from the capital came a few days ago. What did the uncle say specifically, only the old man agrees." The people in Dafang know it well. Uncle must be very angry, I heard that Uncle took two more concubines in the capital and gave Dafang two more children."

Xiao Mingyu frowned, "Has the news come back?"

Xiao Mingpei nodded, "The old man is most concerned about uncle's affairs. The person who delivered the letter said it himself. My uncle must be very angry because of this matter. Now she has no right to be a housekeeper, and Ming Qi's marriage is gone. Luo Luo, maybe the eldest aunt will find a way to go to the capital. One is to watch the uncle and prevent the uncle from messing around. The second is that the third brother must go to the capital because he wants to test his fame. There is also Ming Qi's marriage. We can only find a solution in the capital."

Xiao Mingyu asked curiously: "Did uncle not watch the marriage for Ming Qi?"

"I'm not sure about this. But my mother said that even if the eldest son is going to the capital, the whole family will have to wait until the eldest sister-in-law is born."

Xiao Mingyu asked, "Brother Minghui is taking care of the family property, so I'm afraid he won't be able to leave."

Xiao Mingpei curled his lips, "How much property is left in our Xiao Family's West Mansion now? Just hand over that little property to the stewards below. Why let the eldest brother come forward in person. Don't forget that the eldest brother is also a scholar, and he can continue to take the exam. Go down and take the road of official career. My mother said that the reason why my aunt brought her family back to Zhongzhou from the capital was not to honor the old man and the old lady, but to earn money for the housekeeper. Although the old man made the big aunt vomit I paid out 5 taels, but this is not enough for my aunt. Now that the housekeeper can't make money, there is no point for my aunt to stay in Zhongzhou. Let's see, after my sister-in-law gives birth, The eldest aunt will find a way to go to the capital. At that time, the eldest brother and sister-in-law will definitely follow, even if the eldest brother wants to do business, it is the same to go to the capital."
