Even if a husband and wife have such an intimate relationship, they must be careful when speaking, not to mention that he and Yun Qiao are nothing, just two young men and women who keep company in the Xi family's garden.
What qualifications does he have to dictate her life?
He had said that he didn't like her studying abroad, but he turned around and found an English teacher for her just because she wanted to.
This is what a gentleman is.
Xi Lanting is used to being mean, and it takes a lot of effort to pretend to be a gentleman. If he doesn't inadvertently reveal his little thoughts, he is not very unreasonable.
Yun Qiao heard this but was not angry.
She doesn't like to get angry.
The other party was still Uncle Qi, and Uncle Qi, who was very kind to her, was not worthy of being angry.
"My grandma is like this. If anyone worships her, she will agree if she sees something worthwhile. She protects these people, teaches them rules, gives them benefits, and shows them a clear path." Yun Qiao said, "But
I am different, I will only accept the disciples I choose."
Take Luo Junsheng, for example. He was sold to a theater troupe at the age of six. He excelled at playing with a small voice. He will definitely have a bowl of food in the future.
However, he was unlucky, and the troupe boss always had troubles. He worked alone or in partnership with other troupes, but he always ran into obstacles.
After singing for fifteen years, he was in his early twenties, his best years were about to pass, and he was still unknown.
Someone pointed him out and asked him to meet Granny Xiao. However, to meet Granny Xiao, he needed someone to recommend him, and he also needed Granny Xiao's consent before he could come.
A year later, 22-year-old Luo Junsheng finally met Granny Xiao.
He handed over his birth date, took the initiative to recognize him as his disciple, and knelt down to worship Granny Xiao.
Granny Xiao gave him advice: "Leave Peiping and go to Yancheng. There is a theater in the west of the city. The female boss doesn't matter who she is or what the conditions are. Just go and sing."
Sure enough he came.
There is indeed a female boss who is not good-looking, wears short boots and breeches, and shaves her hair shorter than a man. She is very harsh, good at making things difficult for others, more cruel than ordinary men, and extremely difficult to get along with.
All the troupes she had worked with in the theater had left, and she was slowly becoming lonely.
It's just loneliness, and having a living is not a problem.
Luo Yunsheng came on his own initiative.
As time went by, he became famous all over Yancheng in just six months. The well-known dignitaries from Peiping and Shanghai personally drove to Yancheng just to listen to his music.
The female boss was still very harsh, but the troupe was willing to work with Luo Junsheng, so many people came to join the show and get a share of the action.
Luo Yunsheng slowly got along with the female boss and found that she had very strict rules.
She said she would have dinner at five o'clock in the morning. If you get up and eat, she would be happy. But she kept spitting out her words and said five o'clock would be five o'clock, rain or shine.
Once you know her way around, it's not difficult to get along with her.
She gives money generously; she has a way of dealing with powerful people; she can beat and scold people in the troupe, but her beatings and scoldings are justified, but she doesn't say it herself.
Luo Junsheng has become a hit in the past two years.
Yun Qiao would not accept such a disciple.
She will focus on medical skills, just like Jiang Yanjin's sister, who begged her and she wanted to save her.
"...Seventh Uncle, grandma's remaining power will eventually dissipate. When the time comes, isn't it ridiculous for me to use my old feelings to ask for help?" Yun Qiao said again.
After hearing this, Xi Lanting smiled slightly.
He picked up the tea and took a sip, with a calm expression: "I am meddling in other people's business."
He refused to talk anymore.
One night, the two of them were listening to the play and did not speak again.
On Sunday night, Yun Qiao went back while everyone in the fourth room was having dinner.
Several people stopped and looked at her.
Yun Qiao seemed unaware, simply called her mother, and quickly went upstairs.
