Old man Qi kneaded the noodles and looked at them sideways and said with a smile, "I'm back. She's resting, but she hasn't eaten yet. I'll make a bowl of clear soup noodles."
Qi Yue smiled when she saw the smile on her elder brother's face. She came in and sat in front of the stove to light the fire, "That's why Bao'er can enjoy the cooking of his elder brother."
Song Shuming didn't have the idea of a gentleman going far away to cook, so he also went into the kitchen to get some vegetables to choose from, "Brother, has your sister-in-law sent someone to notify you?"
Old man Qi paused and let out an annoyed ouch, "Look at my memory, I forgot."
Song Shuming hurriedly put down the vegetables and walked away, saying, "Brother, you did it to you. I'll ask Wan An to go to town and inform my sister-in-law."
"Hey, OK, let your sister-in-law come back quickly."
"know."
Qi Yue stood up and took over what Song Shuming had just done and continued to choose dishes. After a moment of silence, she still asked carefully: "Brother, where is third brother...?"
Old man Qi's originally happy face suddenly sank. Qi Yue has been afraid of his elder brother since he was a child. Over the years, old man Qi has gradually become more aggressive in taking care of hundreds of people. With this serious look on his face, Qi Yue immediately stopped talking and even
I dare not breathe heavily.
After a few breaths, Old Man Qi said coldly: "Don't worry about them."
This matter is said to be their family's misfortune.
In Guiyun Courtyard [the name Qi Bao'er had just given to his courtyard], Little Coconut was also talking to Qi Bao'er about Qi Wenshou's family.
After Qi Bao'er left, Xiao Yezi and Qiu Yu both went to the capital under the control of Old Man Qi. What Old Man Qi meant was: compared to those in the Princess's Mansion in central Beijing, they should trust Little Yezi and Qiu Yu more and let them
During Qi Bao'er's absence, protect the princess' mansion.
Last night, someone from the Prince's Mansion came to the Princess' Mansion and told them that the Princess had returned. Xiao Yezi and Qiu Yu rushed to Qijia Village non-stop overnight. Little Yezi had just arrived.
This girl's equestrian skills are better than Qiu Yu's, and her kung fu is stronger than Qiu Yu's. She was so dishonest that she didn't even wait for Qiu Yu and arrived first by herself.
Perhaps he was punished for being unjust, and he got into trouble before he even entered the door. He met Qi Wenshou's wife, Youshi, outside the door.
Although Mr. You used to like to take advantage of small things, there was nothing wrong with him. At least he was considerate and courteous, so he was generally okay.
But since that incident four years ago, Youshi seems to have changed her personality. She has become more and more cunning, and you still can't explain anything to her.
Little Coconut was held by her for a long time before he finally got out. He didn't even have time to get excited when he saw the princess, whom he hadn't seen for many years. First, the princess discovered the paw prints on his neck and was beaten violently.
Qi Bao'er's voice, whether she was angry or not, was soft and sweet, as if she was holding sugar in her mouth.
But Little Coconut has been his master for nine years. When Qi Bao'er left, he didn't take him with him. When they met for the first time nine years later, the first words they said were still in a disgusting tone. Isn't it like having a basin of ice on your head in the cold winter?
The water splashed down, the aggrieved person in my heart...
"My servant met Youshi at the door and was scratched by her."
"Huh? How dare she tickle you?" Don't you know you are mine?
Is it surprising that since she has been away these years, Xiaoyezhu, her personal confidant, can already be bullied at will?
Little Coconut didn't want to say that when he first met the princess, but for some reason, his mouth was not controlled by his brain, and he said everything. Read a book
Things have to go back five years.
Five years ago, in the winter before the Chinese New Year, Qi Wenshou suddenly fell seriously ill. Qi Wenshou's family was under the control of Qi Wenshou. Only Qi Kangxin worked in a furniture workshop that had just opened at that time. The others were clearing wasteland and farming, and Qi Kangxin had just just started working.
I haven't been able to get paid for my work; my family's life is already very tight, and Qi Wenshou's illness has directly emptied the family's financial resources.
Qi Wenshou did not allow his family to tell Old Man Qi and his family about his illness. Although the two families usually moved around, it was the cold winter and it was approaching the Chinese New Year. Several workshops were the most nervous time of the year for shipments.
Old man Qi was so busy that he didn't have much time to rest, so he didn't pay attention to Qi Wenshou for a while.
It was not until the Chinese New Year that the workshop stopped working for the holidays, and Old Man Qi sent Qi Kangfu to deliver New Year gifts to Qi Wenshou's family. Only then did he discover that Qi Wenshou had become so sick that he was reduced to a handful of bones.
I hurriedly sent the person to the hotel in Yong'an City, but it took too long, and Qiwenshou only lasted for more than ten days. The Lantern Festival had just passed, and the person was gone.
In order to cure Qiwenshou's illness, the family even sold almost all the food. There were so many people in the family, and it was impossible for the old man to watch them starve to death.
Then help one or two.
I gave them grain and money so that they could survive until the harvest.
Unexpectedly, after the death of Qi Wenshou, Youshi began to come to Qi Wenshou every two days to cry out for her poverty. Life at home was good, and the seams in Mrs. Tian's hands had gradually become looser, so Youshi might not be able to get it every time she came over.
I get money, but I never come back empty-handed every time.
This is supposed to be the elder brother's support for his deceased brother's family. Who wouldn't say benevolent and righteous?!
Pian You took advantage of Qi's house, and spoke ill of old man Qi and old lady Tian everywhere when he left the house. His main thought was "Old man Qi is obviously so rich, but he just watched his own brother fall ill because he had no money."
Healing a disease leads to death."
At that time, Old Man Qi felt guilty about Qi Shouwen's death. Even though some words reached the ears of him and Old Mrs. Tian, they did not go to trouble Youshi.
until···
"The second master got drunk at the second master's house and told the real cause of the third master's death."
It turned out that Qi Wenshou just contracted common typhoid at first, and he could go to the village doctor Gao and spend a hundred coins to get a few packets of medicine and he would be cured.
It was Youshi who was reluctant to part with it after hearing that a few packets of medicine cost hundreds of yuan, and said that she knew a folk remedy to treat typhoid fever, so she went to collect the medicine herself to treat Qi Wenshou.
I don't know what Qi Wenshou was thinking at that time. Anyway, he didn't go to Dr. Gao for medical treatment. He listened to You's words and drank the herbs that You brought back.
Unexpectedly, after only two doses, Qi Wenshou lay in bed and could not get up.
If You had gone to ask Doctor Gao at this time, it would still be too late, but she was afraid. She was afraid that people would know that she was the cause of Qi Wenshou's serious illness, and she was even more afraid that Old Man Qi would find out that she had harmed Qi Wenshou in disguise.
It was just forced and delayed for more than half a month.
Youshi felt guilty and often had nightmares and talked in her sleep at night. Only then did Qi Kangxin guess the general situation after hearing it many times.
Qi Kangxin is a filial son, but he is his biological father and his biological mother.
Tortured in his heart, Qi Kangxin became more and more silent, and he looked more and more decadent.
This is how Qi Kangfu invited him to drink, and then Qi Kangxin spoke the truth after drinking.
"The so-called herbs that You picked at the beginning are just weeds that cannot cure diseases and are not harmful to people. From the perspective of the law, it cannot be regarded as her harming the third old man.
In addition, several children begged for mercy, so in the end, just in accordance with the clan rules, the old man took the decision to divorce You."
