MTL - The Stepmother is Unkind-Chapter 101

Qi Jiedushi was full of anger, and when he returned to the backyard, he said to Mrs. Qi, "Madam should send them away, why should they come back tomorrow?"

Mrs. Qi's expression was helpless, and the corner of her mouth couldn't help but raise, "The child in Xie's family has always called me grandmother. The last time I heard the child call my grandmother was in a dream..."

"That can't be too involved with them." Qi Jiedushi sighed and couldn't help complaining, "I reminded my wife again and again, why are you still being coaxed away?"

Mrs. Qi was indeed a little guilty at first, but when she heard that he dared to complain, even if her attitude changed, she got angry and said, "You are capable, what are you hiding?"

As soon as her voice became louder, Qi Jiedushi's aura was lowered by a layer, "I see the female relatives and children from the Xie family, I see it in my daughter's face, and it's fine to see them. How can I always accompany them, it's not proper etiquette."

"Don't make excuses." Mrs. Qi sat boldly on the chair, suddenly glared at the envoy Qi Jiedu, and bit back, "The maid of the Xie family is stunning, does she look good?"

Qi Jiedu made a sigh and firmly denied: "Madam, you have misunderstood me, and my husband has absolutely no unreasonable thoughts. Just looking at the appearance of the two of them, it seems that they are Nanmeng women."

When Mrs. Qi heard this, she grabbed Qi Jiedushi's ear and said angrily, "Can you still recognize the Nanmeng clan? Say it! Have you seen it behind my back?"

The envoy Qi Jiedu begged for mercy, "Madam, I don't have it, so don't blame me."

"I don't dare to forgive you." Mrs. Qi glared at him before letting go.

Qi Jiedushi covered his ears and reasoned with good words: "Madam, don't divert your attention. What I'm talking about now is the downside of being close to the Xie family."

Mrs. Qi was annoyed, "Why are you endless? You have already agreed, what can you do?"

The envoy Qi Jiedu said: "Tomorrow, you must remember to refuse. The Xie family is obviously going to pull me into the game. In the current situation, if something goes wrong, it is easy to cause trouble."

"Aren't you in the bureau now? Cowardly." Mrs. Qi slapped the table and scolded, "Those alien races are arrogant and domineering, even the officials and family members dare to hold them hostage, and will they not go against the sky in the future?"

"Be careful with your words..."

The envoy Qi Jiedu stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, and when he was pushed aside, he stood beside Mrs. Qi and said, "No matter what happens in the future, I'll be fine during my term of office, and when I return to Beijing to report on my duties and go to work logically, we will be fine. Reunited with my children and grandchildren."

"Ma'am, I have endured this for half a year."

Mrs. Qi was originally from a general, and she used to be the most vigorous and resolute in the past, and her daughter also taught her a strong temperament. She was in Lingnan, and she has been enduring the so-called "situation" in the mouth of Qi Jiedu.

She got annoyed when she heard this word, and threw a sentence: "Bear it! I see how long you have to endure it!"

Then he strode away, swaying and flying.

Qi Jiedushi hurriedly followed, "Madam, Madam..."

Yin Mingyu was on his way back to the prefecture, and Chu He and his party quietly returned to the prefecture.

They had previously experienced the inconvenience when entering and leaving the city, so they privately got through the city gate guards, so as not to make any noise when entering or leaving the city, and teach people to notice the abnormality.

As for entering the city, although there are many people, many people are also a layer of protection.

However, Chu He came back in a turbulent way, and carefully hid his whereabouts and entered the city, only to find that most of the passers-by were discussing with interest one person—Mrs. Prefect.

The prefect's wife was so beautiful when she entered the city. The prefect's wife **** many people and came back. Where did the prefect's wife go out today? The maid of the prefect's wife is amazingly beautiful...

Chu He and others walked all the way, listening to this, they were all filled with confusion and confusion.

It's only been a few days since I left, how has the wind direction of the state city all changed, Madam Governor... Is she so capable?

And why did she suddenly come back?

Chu He really couldn't hold back his curiosity, and hurriedly entered the state ya back house from the back door, and as soon as he entered, he found that the change in the back house was indeed great.

Originally, Xie Qin taught people to plant some flowers in the courtyard for Yin Mingyu and the others, and set up vines and mosquito repellents.

However, although it was elegant before, no one appreciated it. Xie Qin was always busy in the front office, and the courtyard of the back house was always a little empty, but now there is a rocking chair under the grape trellis, and a sheep in the sheep shed in the corner of the courtyard. Flowers and flowers The vines are also all gnawed and bald, very lifelike.

Chu He was actually tired, but when he saw Xie Qin's preparations, he was all bald, couldn't help laughing, and walked to the sheep, intending to tease it.

However, the sheep of the Right Chancellor's family hold grudges very much. Even though it has been a long time, they have not forgotten about Chu He, the "enemy". As soon as they notice that Chu He is approaching, they directly kick him.

Chu He hurriedly dodged and retreated until the rope couldn't reach before he stopped and laughed presumptuously, "Come here and kick me~"

The sheep struggled to get off the rope, and its nose shot at Chu He, but still couldn't reach it, so he turned around and used his hind hooves to plan the ground.

Chu He ducked back again, and continued to tease the sheep until the grass and dust could not touch him.

Qingyu came over with tea, saw this scene, shook his head helplessly, and dissuaded: "Chu Langjun, if you mess with it once, it will remember it in the future, and it will definitely come back with revenge, you sit for a while, drink some tea, face It will be cooked later."

Chu He sat at the stone table, and as soon as he picked up the cup, he saw Xie Qin coming in through the door of the back house, and he greeted, "Jing Ming, would you like a cup of tea?"

Xie Qin looked at him up and down and saw that he was exhausted, and said, "Let's talk about the business of the study first, and then you can rest early."

Chu He shrugged slightly, drank his tea, got up and followed him into the study, and said with a smile, "I heard that my younger brothers and sisters entered the city yesterday, do you see your thoughts?"

Xie Qin said lightly: "The important thing is that people are here."

"Pretend." Chu He deliberately ran on him, walked to the desk and said, "I'm sorry to bother Jingming today for you to grind for me."

Xie Qin didn't reject it, he picked up the ink stick and asked, "But what did you find?"

Chu He flattened the paper with a paperweight, and replied solemnly: "We tracked those convoys all the way to the port, and what was in the unloaded wooden box, I couldn't see it, but I think it should be as good as what you expected before, but it's not accurate. What is it? I will first draw the appearance of the merchant ship, and then I will send someone to check it, maybe I can get something.”

Xie Qin frowned, "It's so hidden, and at the same time holding Erniang and Ce'er hostage, it's obvious that there's something big hidden behind it, and it needs to be reported to Beijing."

Chu He paused and asked sincerely: "Perhaps, is it possible that the timing of the kidnapping of the younger brother and sister was so coincidental, just because the younger brother and sister went to Lingnan at this time?"

Xie Qin remembered that the Yan people had waited for half a year and kept silent, and then he changed the subject and said, "I will send someone to send a letter to Yangzhou, ask the people to help investigate, and send the letter quickly, maybe it will be able to intercept it at the port ahead of time."

"You also suspect that the ultimate purpose of this merchant ship is..."

The two looked at each other and said in unison, "The capital."

If it is really the capital, then there must be a big conspiracy behind the collusion between Lingnan and the capital, so they need to report as soon as possible, and secondly, they have to deal with it as much as possible, delay time, and find out what is behind Lingnan. Prepare for the future.

Xie Qin later talked about those people Yin Mingyu brought back and some arrangements Yin Mingyu made outside.

After hearing this, Chu He sighed with emotion: "My younger brother and sister seem to be acting unexpectedly, at first hearing it is reckless, but after careful consideration, there is always something worth scrutinizing. I don't know how the Yin family brought up a woman like my younger brother and sister."

"In this way, it is also very good to have a wife."

Xie Qin asked casually, "Do you want to marry a wife?"

Chu He shook his head decisively, "If you don't have someone you like, it's better to be alone."

When his voice fell, there was movement outside the study, Xie Qin heard that it was Yin Mingyu, and said to Chu He: "You draw first, I'll be back in a moment."

In the courtyard, Yin Mingyu saw Qingyu holding a bowl of noodles. After inquiring, he learned that Chu He was coming, and he saw Xie Qin come out of the study.

She asked Nan Conando sisters to go back to their house to stay first, and then took Xie Ce to Xie Qin.

Xie Qin asked, "Is it still going well?"

Yin Mingyu nodded, "Smooth, Aunt Qi is enthusiastic, and invited Xiao Langjun and me to be guests tomorrow."

aunt?

Xie Qin frowned, but he didn't expect them to go so smoothly.

Xie Ce grabbed his father's hem, raised his head and said crisply: "Father, grandmother Qi likes me, so I will go."

Xie Qin... raised his hand and patted his head twice. It seems that yesterday Yin Mingyu said that his influence was a fact. When he went to visit Qi Jiedushi, he would often encounter soft nails, not as many as his wife and children.

Yin Mingyu and Xie Ce entered the study and greeted each other with Chu He.

Then Xie Qin asked someone to take Xie Ce out, leaving Yin Mingyu behind to tell her what Chu He said just now.

Chu He heard him talk to his younger brother and sister about such an important matter. After a little surprise, he remembered what his younger brother and sister had done, and lowered his head again to paint.

And Yin Mingyu listened to Xie Qin's words, was quiet for a moment, let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "Today's dinner, you need to eat something good, treat yourself."

Chu He couldn't help laughing, "Brother and sister thought for a while, then just wanted to eat and drink?"

Yin Mingyu said as a matter of course: "Although some things must be done, you can't lose this leisurely heart, otherwise life will be boring."

Chu He thought that these days are really busy, and there are so many things to worry about, it is indeed too tense, and he agrees: "Brother and sister said it is very true."

So Yin Mingyu said, "Why don't you leave a meal for some wine? Mr. Chu Lang can stay in the prefecture in the evening."

She didn't ask Xie Qin's opinion at all, and Xie Qin just stood beside her and looked at her with a smile in his eyes.

If there is wine, Chu He naturally agrees.

Yin Mingyu stopped disturbing Chu He's drawing and exited the study.

Xie Qin kept watching her go out until the door closed.

When the sky darkened, Chu He finished painting, and the dining room also prepared food and drink, and the two went out together.

Yin Mingyu was so intrigued that he directly asked people to light a small bonfire in the yard, and then lit lanterns and hung them around, and then brought the wine and vegetables to the yard, and they sat around the bonfire and ate and drank.

Only the three adults, not including Xie Ce, Xie Ce went back to the house after eating long ago.

The maids were thoughtful and prepared a low couch for Chu He, Chu He leaned on the couch, half-closed his eyes with the jug in his hand, and said, "The last time I drank with your husband and wife was the autumn hunting last year..."

He didn't know whether he was tired or drunk, the little leopard's face appeared in front of him, and then he shook his head and shook it away.

You are already a woman, you should not be delusional...

Xie Qin finished a glass of wine quietly, raised his head and asked Yin Mingyu, "Would you like to listen to the piano?"

Yin Mingyu had a shadow on the piano, but in this situation, the sound of the piano really matched, so he nodded.

Xie Qin instructed the maid to bring the violin and place it on his legs. Looking at Yin Mingyu's face under the firelight, he slowly fiddled with the strings, and the extremely peaceful and gentle violin sound flowed out from under his fingers.

He occasionally raised his head and looked at Yin Mingyu with a gaze that was not extremely affectionate, but that the coldness dissipated and the ice and snow melted, which was very consistent with his piano sound.

Yin Mingyu leaned his chin, took a sip of wine from time to time, and watched Xie Qin play with a smile.

In fact, this is just right for them. They are not people who love and love each other. They can support each other and be confidants.

At this time, the atmosphere was just right. When the song was over, Xie Qin gently put down the violin, and was about to hold Yin Mingyu's hand, snoring loudly.

Xie Qin: "…"

Yin Mingyu chuckled softly and turned to look at the source of the snoring together with Xie Qin.

Chu He was extremely tired, so he directly supported his head and fell asleep on his side on the low couch.

Whenever he wanted a little warmth, he was always disturbed. Xie Qin pressed his head and couldn't help laughing again. He said to Yin Mingyu, "I hid a good wine and teach Qingyu to take it out for you to drink."

Yin Mingyu raised his eyebrows, "What good wine?"

"plum…"

Before Xie Qin finished speaking, Chu He suddenly sat up, looked at Xie Qin blankly, and said, "I heard!

Xie Qin: "…"

When you get drunk, you get drunk, and what do you do when you show your existence at first glance?

Yin Mingyu couldn't help laughing, and bent down with a straight smile.

Chu He opened his eyes, but he was clearly not awake.

Xie Qin got up, with a bit of personal resentment, pressed Chu He's shoulder heavily, and said solemnly: "You are drunk, go to sleep."

Chu He fell heavily on the low couch and fell asleep again.

Yin Mingyu still had a smile on his face, spread out his palm, and said, "Langjun, wine."

Xie Qin taught Qingyu to fetch wine, took a clean glass himself, poured two glasses of wine, handed one to Yin Mingyu, and held one in his hand.

Yin Mingyu smelled the aroma of plums, and felt that he had a good day today, and his smile became more and more obvious.

The cup moved forward and touched Xie Qin's cup. After a crisp sound, Yin Mingyu lifted it up and drank it.

Xie Qin saw that she had finished drinking, and just picked it up and drank it.

At this time, it was cold outside. If you sleep like this outside, you will easily get cold. Xie Qin called the guard and helped Chu He to go to the guest room to rest first.

After that, only the husband and wife were left to sit by the bonfire and drink to each other, until the wine was finished and the bonfire was about to burn out, and the two went back to bed together.

The next day, Yin Mingyu got up and Xie Qin was not there. After asking, he learned that Chu He had not moved, so he ignored him, and took Xie Ce out after breakfast.

She was still as ostentatious as yesterday, and the officials of the state government did not make such a fuss as yesterday, but I heard that Mrs. Governor Shi still went to the Jiedushi Mansion, and he became more and more convinced of what Mrs. Governor Shishi said—that Mrs. Governor Shi and the Jiedushi Mansion are related .

The relationship between Xie Qin and Qi Jiedushi is very important to Nanyue and even Lingnan.

Everyone has different thoughts, and some people quietly spread the news.

Xie Qin saw it, but this was what he and Yin Mingyu wanted, so it didn't stop the spread.

And last night in the state prison, the guards caught a jailer who was quietly approaching the Nanmeng and Yan peoples. Xie Qin ignored it for the time being and only taught people to lock the jailer.

On the other side, Yin Mingyu and Xie Ce arrived at the Jiedu envoy's mansion. They didn't see Qi Jiedu envoy, but they were "warmly" received by Mrs. Qi.

Yin Mingyu could see that at first, the other party seemed to be more restrained because of this, but after Xie Ce finished the ceremony, he called out "Grandma Qi" in a milky voice, and Mrs. Qi's expression became strange.

That is, I want to work hard to restrain myself, but I can't help but want to respond enthusiastically, which is very tangled.

When Xie Ce was younger, he could sense whether others had goodwill towards him. Now, of course, he could sense that Mrs. Qi liked him, so she took the initiative to pat Mrs. Qi's hand and said solemnly, "Grandma Qi, don't be embarrassed."

Yin Mingyu held back a smile and said seriously, "Yes, auntie, it's rare to meet people with relatives from all over the world. We see you as kind, so don't be embarrassed."

Mrs. Qi: "…"

She is not embarrassed.

The big and small really don't look like stepmothers and sons, they are just the same cheeky, but...

Mrs. Qi looked at Xie Ce's little face, and couldn't help but soften her heart. When she met cheeky people left and right, she couldn't pretend, so she simply gave up, holding Xie Ce's little hand, and said softly, "Xie Xiaolang-kun, you can go. Playing in the garden?"

After thinking for a while, Xie Ce nodded seriously, "Okay."

Mrs. Qi smiled again and called Yin Mingyu to sit in the garden next to her.

Turning her head to the side, she looked at the six maidservants behind Yin Mingyu, especially the two women who, according to the envoy Qi Jiedu, were "Nammengren".

Nan Ke was okay. As soon as Nan Duo felt someone's sight, he immediately lowered his head and moved closer to his sister.

Mrs. Qi retracted her gaze and glanced at Yin Mingyu, who was always smiling, wondering what her plans were.

Yin Mingyu blinked and looked at Madam Qi innocently and innocently. Although it didn't work for certain people, she did it very skillfully and naturally.

Mrs. Qi's expression froze, and she turned her eyes away.

Yin Mingyu: "…"

Eh? Is it useless?

And Mrs. Qi looked down at the innocent Xie Ce she thought, with a kind smile on her face.

Xie Ce felt that when he raised his head, he gave her a sweet smile, which suddenly hit Mrs. Qi's soft heart.

Yin Mingyu didn't take it seriously, looked ahead, and immediately taught the school martial arts field in front of him to attract attention.

The Qi family's garden was not an ordinary garden, but a school martial arts field was built in the lush greenery. Various weapons were standing on the weapon racks around the school martial arts field.

Xie Ce said "Wow—", his face full of amazement, "Grandmother Qi, it's amazing!"

Mrs. Qi was faintly complacent, but she restrained herself and waved her hand: "It's just ordinary."

Xie Ce was very interested in the school martial arts field, but he was very polite when he was outside. He asked Mrs. Qi if she could come over. After Mrs. Qi agreed, she took her hand to the school martial arts field.

There is a stone table and a stone bench next to the school martial arts field. Mrs. Qi asked Yin Mingyu to take a seat. After Yin Mingyu sat down, she said to Xie Ce: "The weapon is sharp, only look at it, not touch it."

"Okay." After Xie Ce agreed, he ran over to look like a gust of wind.

Yin Mingyu was not at ease, and gave Jin'er a look, and Jin'er led the others to stand beside the weapon rack, watching over them at any time.

Mrs. Qi looked away from Xie Ce, fell on Yin Mingyu's string of beauties, and asked casually, "With such a beautiful maid, you are not afraid of Xie Inspector's half-heartedness?"

Yin Mingyu seemed to have no worries at all, and said with a smile: "Our prefects are healthy and not greedy for sex."

Mrs. Qi thought of something, subconsciously glanced at her abdomen, felt rude again, and quickly retracted it.

The elders should rarely like people who have a lot of heart and mind. Yin Mingyu is not used to it and doesn't care at all. Instead, he looks at her beauties and says, "Aren't you pleasing to the eyes? These women who are like flowers are not as good as they are. Teach some men to play, it's better for me to keep it by my side."

She looked at Sister Nan Conan Duo and seemed to have some reason. Mrs. Qi held back her question and turned to Xie Ce, who was running around, and said, "This child's body is really good, and his legs look strong. "

Yin Mingyu put his hand on the stone table comfortably, turned his eyes, and said with a smile, "Don't look at our young man, he has already started to learn martial arts from the guards, and he can even punch a set of punches."

When Xie Ce heard this, he ran back without hesitation, and took the initiative to express: "Grandma Qi, can I show you a punch?"

Mrs. Qi replied cheerfully, "Okay, okay, let me see how your punches are."

Xie Ce was thinking about the school martial arts field, and walked to the middle of the school martial arts field with seriousness, clenched his small fists, spread his legs, and took a horse step.

He punched and shouted softly, "Ha!"

He kicked out another leg and shouted softly, "Ha!"

In fact, the moves were not linked at all, but such a big child had a sullen face and said "ha" seriously, and Mrs. Qi couldn't help but laugh and cheered him.

When Xie Ce heard this, he became even more energetic and kicked out with one foot. He was too hard to stand up, and he sat on the ground, top-heavy, with his feet turned towards the sky.

Mrs. Qi stood up nervously, and when she saw that he was getting up all by himself, nothing happened, she smiled at them, and sat down again.

Yin Mingyu was drinking tea and said casually: "You don't have to worry, just fall, he's used to it."

Mrs. Qi: "…"

This is a bit like a stepmother, and she doesn't feel bad for the child at all.

Xie Ce Dian Dian'er ran back, and Yin Mingyu handed him a handkerchief.

When Mrs. Qi saw that he was wiping sweat with a handkerchief by herself, she felt sorry for him being so sensible at a young age, so she pulled Xie Ce to her side and wiped him with the handkerchief herself.

Yin Mingyu took advantage of this opportunity and said, "I heard that you are a keeper, this child is squeamish. If I can learn more by your side, I will definitely benefit a lot."

Xie Ceyi was beside Mrs. Qi and said intimately, "I like grandmother Qi."

Madam Qi hesitated.

Yin Mingyu said again: "Look at me, thinking that the staff in the prefecture is complicated and a little unsafe, it's abrupt, don't take it to heart."

Xie Ce didn't speak, just looked at Mrs. Qi with big eyes.

Mrs. Qi was actually quite lonely, and it was rare to see the children she liked. As soon as she heard that it was unsafe, she remembered their previous kidnapping, and she agreed again.

Yin Mingyu smiled, and immediately said, "You don't need to take care of it, just find a guard to teach him martial arts." The martial arts classes are already available, will other classes be late?

Xie Ce looked at his mother in shock, why, why did he go to class?

Mrs. Qi said: "It's easy, and there is no shortage of soldiers in the mansion."

Xie Ce: "…"

In the front yard, Qi Jiedushi knew that the Xie family boy would have martial arts lessons in Jiedushi's house in the future, so he lost his temper.

Only when Xie Qin came to pick up his wife and children, he finally showed a slick look to Xie Qin, and said with a smile, "Xie Qinshi, it's a good plan."

Xie Qin: "…"

It's all about the wife and children, do you believe it?

When the family of three sat on the carriage back home, Xie Qin looked at his wife and children and laughed, "I'm really lucky in three lifetimes..."

Yin Mingyu stretched out two fingers, and Xie Qin nodded in agreement with a smile.

Yin Mingyu instantly reaps happiness.

Only Xie Ce was gloomy.
