Although Cui Qiao didn't know what Qi Yun was waiting for, Cui Qiao didn't stop him.
After that, the two of them waited in one place for a whole morning, and then they saw a young man with a wretched figure, a bruised nose and a swollen face walking out of the yamen gate of the northern suburbs prison.
Cui Qiao naturally recognized the man as Du Zechi at a glance.
However, Du Zechi obviously didn't notice Cui Qiao, or in other words, he didn't dare to take another look in the direction of the group of people with carriages.
Until Cuiqiao called out, "Young Master Ciao."
Du Zechi then looked dully at the carved carriage beside him.
He naturally recognized Cui Qiao. After all, he was staying in Jiang Mansion. Naturally, he only recognized most of the servants in the manor.
This Cuiqiao was Jiang Nianjiao's right-hand maid, so he naturally knew it even better.
When he saw Cui Qiao, he felt nervous. He reluctantly moved to Cui Qiao, and then whispered, "Miss Qiao'er, cousin, she didn't come over, did she?"
Cuiqiao shook her head.
Seeing Cui Qiao shaking her head, Du Zechi couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He whispered, "It's better that my cousin didn't come."
"What? Can I eat you now? If it weren't for Miss, you would still be in jail now." Cui Qiao couldn't help but vomit.
Du Zechi scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. He said a little embarrassedly, "Of course I know my cousin is doing it for my own good, but...but I don't want my cousin to worry about me."
Cui Qiao naturally didn't believe a word of Du Zechi's words. When she saw that the drivers on the other carriages only looked at them inquiringly, she didn't want to stay for long. She just whispered, "Okay, sir." You're so glib here, why don't you get in the car quickly."
Du Zechi naturally climbed onto the carriage with Cui Qiao and entered the carriage. He saw that Qi Yun, who had been hugging him last night, was here. He couldn't help but look at Cui Qiao and said, "Sister Qiao'er, she Why are you here?"
Cui Qiao rolled her eyes at Du Zechi, "If Miss Qi Yun hadn't proved it for you, do you think you could have come out so quickly? Why don't you thank me quickly?"
After hearing this, Du Zechi showed an awkward smile to Qi Yun.
Although Du Zechi really likes beauties, and Qi Yun is indeed a little beauty, he has been fooling around in the capital for so long and has not learned any other skills. Only his taste for beauties has become more and more high. In addition, he had visited his cousin for the first time in the capital, so now he wouldn't have all his eyes on her.
So after thanking Qi Yun, he looked away.
Instead, Qi Yun looked at Du Zechi and asked, "When you came out, did anyone else come out with you?"
Du Zechi said, "No, they are all still locked up there."
"Then...where is Second Young Master Li?" Qi Yun couldn't help but ask after thinking about it for a moment.
Du Ze said late, "Didn't come out."
Hearing this, Qi Yun felt disappointed.
Seeing her like this, Cui Qiao comforted her by saying, "The Li family has a great business and nothing will happen to them."
Qi Yun glanced at Cui Qiao, and then nodded slowly.
Cui Qiao asked Qi Yun, "Is that girl planning to go back now? Or will she continue to stay here?"
Qi Yun knew that Second Young Master Li would probably not be able to get out, so naturally he was not in the mood to stay here any longer, and then the group of them headed back.
On the way, Cuiqiao asked the driver to take Qi Yun back to Fenghuafang and promised to take care of her business soon, and then she took Du Zechi back to her home.
The two of them just got off the carriage, but unexpectedly they collided with the mother and daughter of the Qi family when they got off the carriage.
In the past, the mother and daughter would have been chatting at Aunt Du's place at this hour, but they didn't know why they came so late today.
Du Zechi wanted to hide as soon as he saw the two mother and daughter.
It's not that these two mother and daughter are scary, but Liu Wanjun will show a look of satisfaction when she sees Du Zechi.
And Qi Peipei's appearance is too mediocre. Although Du Zechi himself is ordinary in appearance, he has extremely high standards for his partner, and his requirements for appearance are even more stringent.
In his opinion, a mediocre woman like Qi Peipei is basically equivalent to an ugly woman.
And his mother and Qi Peipei's mother Liu Wanjun actually want to bring him and Qi Peipei together. Isn't that right?
Is it to kill him? Therefore, Du Zechi turned around and wanted to run away.
It's a pity that Cuiqiao seemed to be watching the excitement and didn't mind the matter, so she took the initiative to say hello, "Mrs. Qi, Miss Qi, are you coming to see Aunt Du?"
When she saw Cui Qiao, Mrs. Qi turned around. Today, Mrs. Qi seemed a little different from the past. Facing the people in Jiang Mansion, she was not so enthusiastic at the moment. And when she saw Du Zechi, she There seemed to be a bit of embarrassment on his face.
The servant behind her brought a pile of gifts, which was more than what she had brought before.
I think I'm either asking for help or feeling guilty.
Cui Qiao just smiled and greeted, "Mrs. Qi, you come as soon as you say. Why are you so polite every time? Our aunt can hardly use the things you gave us."
Mrs. Qi only said, "You Hui has suffered so much for so many years, this little thing is nothing."
Cui Qiao also knew about the grudge between Mrs. Qi and Aunt Du, so she didn't say anything more.
She then only focused her gaze on Qi Peipei, who had a smug look on her face. Although Qi Peipei didn't seem much different from before, Cui Qiao still felt an aura of arrogance and complacency in her.
So she couldn't help but joked, "Miss Qi seems to be in a good mood. I wonder if something good has happened?"
Qi Peipei smiled. Although she wanted to share her joy with others, she also knew that this was not the right candidate, so she just said lightly, "I am very happy about something."
Liu Wanjun was afraid that Qi Peipei would spill the beans, so she quickly interrupted the conversation between the two. She turned to look at Du Zechi, who had a bruised nose and a swollen face, and looked embarrassed.
Seeing Du Zechi's appearance, Liu Wanjun's eyes flashed with disgust, but her mood changed quickly. Before Du Zechi noticed her disgust, Liu Wanjun had already put on a caring look.
"Master Du, what's going on?" Liu Wanjun asked with concern.
When Du Zechi saw that Liu Wanjun noticed him, his scalp went numb, but then he remembered that his image today would probably make people disgusted. If Qi Peipei knew where he came from, he would definitely hate him even more.
So Du Zechi thought about it, puffed up his chest, and said with pride, "I went to Fenghuafang to drink wine yesterday, and then I got into a fight with someone, and my opponent's head was broken, so I was beaten." He was taken to the prison in the northern suburbs."
His words brought together almost all the things that people hate about the man.
Sure enough, after hearing Du Zechi's words, even Liu Wanjun, who was the best at pretending, looked embarrassed.
Qi Peipei made no secret of his disgust for Du Zechi.
She was used to hating men who didn't have any talent at all and only wanted to eat, drink and have fun all day long.
The person she wants to marry has always been someone she looks up to and admires.
Fortunately, she got what she wanted last night.
Lu Zhizhang had already promised in front of his relatives and his own relatives that he would marry him as his wife.
Therefore, she didn't even bother to give Du Zechi a look at this time.
Although Liu Wanjun was embarrassed, she was an elder after all, so she still cared and said, "What a poor child. I must have suffered a lot in prison last night. Why don't you go down earlier and treat your wounds?" ."..
When Du Zechi heard this, he naturally turned around and wanted to run away. He didn't want his mother to see him like this.
So he just responded quickly, "You're right, then I won't accompany you. I'll take the first step."
After saying this, Du Zechi wanted to run away.
Unfortunately, before he could even take a few steps, he was grabbed by Cui Qiao by the hem of his clothes. "Where do you want to go? My aunt has been worried about you all night. If you don't go and report that you are safe, you are still lingering here." Yes, do you still have a conscience?"
Hearing this, Du Zechi became anxious, "Does my mother know about this?"
Cui Qiao rolled her eyes in her heart, "Of course I know. My aunt was staying with the young lady at that time. If the young lady knows about your affairs, doesn't it mean that my aunt knows about it."
When Du Zechi heard this, his face darkened, and he couldn't think of running away for a moment.
Although he still couldn't help but blame the person who secretly reported the news for being short-sighted, at the moment it was obviously more important to report that his mother was safe, so Du Zechi just followed Qi Qi.
The mother and daughter went to Aunt Du's yard together.
Besides, Aunt Du was worried about her son and had a restless night. At this moment, she couldn't help but doze off during the day.
It wasn't until she heard the mother-in-law beside her calling her that she woke up from dozing off with her head propped up. She just kept asking, "But Chi'er is back."
This time, she was asked about Xin'er, and the woman replied, "It's the young master who is back, and not only the young master is back, but Mrs. Qi and Miss Qi are also here to see you."
Hearing that they were coming together, Aunt Du couldn't help feeling embarrassed, "How did they meet? Chi'er wasn't rude, was she?"
The woman couldn't finish her words and said, "Madam, just go and take a look and you will know."
Naturally, Aunt Du couldn't sit still any longer, so she just walked quickly to the hall.
But in the hall, Du Zechi, who was in a state of embarrassment, and the mother and daughter of the Qi family were seated in two places in the hall.
Upon seeing this scene, Aunt Du didn't know which one to pay attention to first.
But her feelings made the decision for her first.
She turned to look at Du Zechi and her eyes were already red. It was hard for her to scold Du Zechi too much in front of the guests.
So when she realized that Du Zechi didn't seem to have suffered much, she just said in a low voice, "I told you not to go out and cause trouble, but now have you learned a lesson?"
Du Zechi seemed much more obedient in front of his mother, and he nodded lightly.
Then Aunt Du couldn't ask for other details. She just whispered, "Go and take care of your injuries first, and then change your clothes and come over to accompany the girl."
Hearing Aunt Du's words, Qi Peipei was obviously reluctant. She only used her eyes to hint to her mother what to say. In the past, Mrs. Qi might have ignored Qi Peipei and just thought she was being petty.
