"Xiaoyu, we can be considered friends, right?" Qin Xiao asked Qi Xiaoyu
"Of course!" Qi Xiaoyu nodded.
"Then don't be polite to me anymore, you can call me by my name!" Qin Xiaodao
"Qin Xiao!" Qi Xiaoyu called his name
"Well!" Qin Xiao was actually not very satisfied with this title, "You can remove the last name!"
"Xiao?" Qi Xiaoyu exclaimed, this Qin Xiao is too pushy!
"Yes!" Qin Xiao knew what Qi Xiaoyu was thinking, but he deliberately mistook her exclamation just now as calling him.
"Qin Xiao, I have to tell you something clearly!" Qi Xiaoyu felt that he could no longer be so ambiguous.
"There will be plenty of time in the future, let's talk!" Qin Xiao could guess what Qi Xiaoyu was going to say, but he didn't want to hear it now
"Although I owe you, I can only owe..." Qi Xiaoyu didn't care whether Qin Xiao wanted to hear it or not, he had to make it clear.
"I said we'll talk about it later!" Even though Qin Xiao was more graceful, he couldn't bear it anymore. Qi Xiaoyu didn't even give him a chance to prove his feelings, so he wanted to beat him back. Naturally, he was unwilling to do so.
"Oh!" Qi Xiaoyu seemed to be really anxious when he saw Qin Xiao. Such a good-tempered person was forced to lose his temper by her Qi Xiaoyu. It can be seen how crazy she Qi Xiaoyu is. Seeing Qin Xiao lose her temper, Qi Xiaoyu
He also knew that he might have gone too far, so he hurriedly left before saying, "I'm going back first, you are busy!" Qi Xiaoyu also left as if running away.
Looking at Qi Xiaoyu's running back, he shook his head and laughed. Was he that scary? He could actually scare her away?
A group of them set out on the road together. Qi Xiaoyu and a wet nurse were holding a child in a carriage. Qin Xiao, Qin Yao brothers, Zhu Jin, and their entourage were all riding tall horses.
Because of the care of so many people, Qi Xiaoyu's journey was really easy. In less than ten days, they arrived in Guangdong! Qi Xiaoyu originally thought that after arriving in Guangdong, he would find an inn to rest for a few days before preparing to continue.
Going south, Guangdong Province is already very close to the southernmost point, so she is not in a hurry. According to their speed, they can reach it in one day.
However, they all arrived at the door of the house. The Qin brothers refused to let them stay in the inn, and they wanted to fulfill their friendship as landlords.
Qi Xiaoyu and Zhu Jin couldn't resist their hospitality, so they followed them.
They returned to the Qin Mansion together, and the housekeeper immediately went to report to Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin, "Master, Madam, the two young masters are back together!"
"Really?" It was the young lady of the Qin family who screamed happily first, and she jumped happily and ran out. Master Qin and Mrs. Qin looked at each other worriedly and asked the housekeeper, "Is anyone else coming with you?
"They have long heard about their two sons rescuing people. Even though they are so far apart, the news is still coming.
"Yes!" said the steward, "there is also a young woman with a child, and a young master also coming together!"
"Are they a couple?" Mrs. Qin asked with a glimmer of hope. If they were a couple with a child, then all the worries during this period would be in vain. What kind of person is their son? As parents, they are more
Everyone knows that their son will definitely be able to draw a sword to help, but it is abnormal to take someone home and take care of him for a month without returning home. Even if he really wants to help someone, leave it to a servant
It was okay for the two brothers to go home together, but they actually stayed to take care of them themselves, saying that nothing happened. Who would believe it?
"I don't know about this little guy!" The housekeeper also didn't know if they were a couple, "But judging from their age, they look like a couple!"
"Then I'll be relieved!" Mrs. Qin finally let go of her worried heart. They were really worried that their son would get entangled with a widow. No matter it was the eldest son or the youngest son, they all worried.
"Big brother, second brother!" Miss Qin happily jumped in front of them
"Yu'er!" Qin Yao picked up his little sister and turned her around a few times before putting her down.
"You are finally back!" Qin Yu complained to his eldest and second brothers, "If you don't come back, my parents will probably go to Chongzhou!" Chongzhou is where Qi Xiaoyu rests and recuperates.
In order to facilitate business transactions, a separate courtyard was built.
Qi Xiaoyu looked at this coquettish little girl lying happily in Qin Yao's arms. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. Her bright eyes, white teeth, and cuteness made Qi Xiaoyu miss her middle school days. Qin Xiao saw Qi Xiaoyu
Staring at his sister, he took the initiative to introduce her, "This is my roommate!"
"Hello, Yu'er!" Qi Xiaoyu stepped forward to say hello.
"Hello!" Qin Yu is very reserved when facing strangers.
"Our names are quite similar. My name is Xiao Yu. This is also fate. We will become good friends!" Qi Xiaoyu looked at Yu'er and said.
"Yeah!" Yu'er has never seen anyone she doesn't know except people from the Qin family.
"This is my cousin, my name is Zhu Yujin!" Qi Xiaoyu introduced Zhu Jin to Yu'er. Zhu Jin clasped his fists at Yu'er politely and nodded in greeting, but her face looked like cooked shrimp.
, red all the way to the base of the ears
"Go and see your parents!" Qin Yu walked up to Qin Xiao and said. She didn't dare to speak in front of strangers, especially in front of strange men, so she could only go to her brother to ease her mood.
"Yeah!" Qin Xiao nodded.
"We come to your mansion to make trouble, so we should go and see the elders first!" Zhu Jin said
"Yes, yes!" Qi Xiaoyu also thinks this is basic courtesy. Although she is not willing to meet the elders of the Qin family. Although she has a cheerful personality and is enthusiastic about people, she just feels that it is a bit awkward to meet Qin Xiao's parents.
awkward
They came to the main hall. Mr. Qin and his wife had just arrived at the main hall. Qin Xiao and Qin Yao first bowed to their parents before introducing them to them, "Dad, mother, they are all friends my son met along the way. Qi Xiaoyu
, Zhu Yujin!”
"I've met Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin!" Qi Xiaoyu bowed and Zhu Yujin just cupped her fists and saluted.
"You are the distinguished guests of my Qin Mansion, come and take your seats quickly!" Mr. Qin said politely.
"This child is really cute. Is it Mrs. Zhu's child?" Mrs. Qin was still most concerned about this matter. She walked up to the nurse holding the child and began to inquire about the child's life experience.
"It's my child, but I'm not Mrs. Zhu!" Qi Xiaoyu emphasized that he was no longer Mrs. Zhu.
"Then..." Mrs. Qin said doubtfully. A man and a woman alone, not husband and wife, can still go on the road together. I really don't know what this woman is thinking.
"Mom, this is a sad thing for me, so don't ask any more questions!" Qin Yao spoke for Qi Xiaoyu first.
"I see. Since it's not convenient for Miss Qi to say it, let's not say it!" Mrs. Qin had a smile on her face, but she had already scolded her second son several times in her heart. This son would definitely marry
The wife has forgotten her mother. She has not even married a daughter-in-law yet, but she has already spoken for this woman. It must be because of this woman that he stayed in Chongzhou for so long and did not come back.
"Thank you Madam for your understanding!" Qi Xiaoyu said politely. Mr. Qin looked on and did not stop Madam from asking. He also wanted to know what his son and this woman meant.
"Where is Miss Qi from?" Mrs. Qin asked again.
"He's from the capital!" Second Young Master Qin answered for Qi Xiaoyu.
"The capital is so far away from Guangdong. What are you doing all the way to Guangdong?" asked Mrs. Qin.
"Travel!" Qi Xiaoyu also answered all questions.
"Travel?" Mrs. Qin was very suspicious of Qi Xiaoyu's words. How could a pregnant woman who was about to give birth travel so far without fearing that her child would encounter any accidents on the way? They are not always so lucky to meet someone who can help them.
"We had already planned to go to Leizhou, but we didn't expect to bring an extra child!" Qi Xiaoyu told the truth, Leizhou is already in the southernmost part of the Chiming Dynasty.
"Did you find this child on the road?" Mrs. Qin recognized Qi Xiaoyu's speech disorder.
"The child was born on the road!" Qi Xiaoyu also raised his own doubts after answering Mrs. Qin's words, "Madam, you seem to be very interested in my child? However, I must make a statement, although I want it more.
A girl, but I will not be irresponsible to my son, and I will never abandon the child!"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Mrs. Qin did not understand what Qi Xiaoyu said, but it was Qin Yao who asked the question.
"No matter what, I will not give my son away!" Qi Xiaoyu looked at Mrs. Qin and seriously suspected that she was probably eager to have a grandson and wanted to keep Qi Xiaoyu's son first.
"Xiao Yu, don't talk nonsense!" Zhu Jin guessed something after listening to Qi Xiaoyu's words.
"What nonsense am I talking about?" Qi Xiaoyu said to Zhu Jin, then turned to look at Mrs. Qin, "Madam, I know that you really want to have a grandson now, but Hong'er is my son, and I don't care what I say.
I won’t let him stay in the Qin family!”
Qi Xiaoyu walked to Qin Xiao and Qin Yao again and continued to say to Mrs. Qin: "Look, your two sons are both young and powerful. They will definitely give you a lot of grandchildren and granddaughters. Just wait patiently!"
"What is this child saying?" Mrs. Qin said with a smile. Qi Xiaoyu is really imaginative. However, these words Qi Xiaoyu said also dispelled her doubts. After hearing the meaning of Qi Xiaoyu's words, she was right
His two sons are not interesting, and I believe that his own son will not bring trouble on himself! Therefore, Mrs. Qin smiled happily, and she also thought that Qi Xiaoyu was actually quite cute. He spoke openly but had no scheming. He was a
simple child
"To be honest!" Qi Xiaoyu never thought that Mrs. Qin would think so much.
"Honestly, the truth is good!" Mrs. Qin smiled and patted Qi Xiaoyu on the shoulder.
"Is the child's name Hong'er?" Mrs. Qin still remembers that Qi Xiaoyu mentioned the child's name just now.
"Yes!" Qi Xiaoyu nodded and said with a smile, "My real name is Qin Hong, and I have accepted Qin Xiao as my godfather!"
Qi Xiaoyu's words made Mrs. Qin's smile freeze on her face again. Why was she called Qin Hong? She absolutely didn't believe it. Qi Xiaoyu's husband also happened to be named Qin. She didn't believe such a coincidence.
"When did Hong'er recognize my eldest brother as his godfather?" Qin Yao protested. They didn't even tell him about such a big thing.
