Back on the carriage, Xu Qingmo began to hold his chin and think about things about the Fu family. In his memory, the children of the Fu family had never been on the list, but they were first-class in giving birth to children. Although Mr. Fu Zhengkang was terrible at raising children, he His long life, coupled with his tendency to follow the trend, has left a bright road for future generations.
In the early years, there was no conflict between the Xu family and the Fu family. Although Ning Yuanhou looked down on Fu Zhengkang, he also respected his senior very much. Later, the reason why Ning Yuanhou and Fu Zhengkang broke up was because Fu Zhengkang wanted his The granddaughter, Fu Zhaozhao, married Xu Yanquan.
At that time, Xu Yanquan was notorious because of the fireworks girl. No one from the elite daughter's family in the capital was willing to marry him. Fu Zhaozhao's mother was quite sensible and came to propose marriage, but the only requirement was to expel her. Let’s go with the fireworks woman.
Xu Yanquan, who had a straight body, could not do such an intolerable thing, and the two parties were in a stalemate. In the end, the Xu family and the Fu family failed to get married and instead ended up having a grudge.
And this Fu Zhaozhao is indeed not a good girl. She has a deep mind. After breaking up the Xu family's marriage, she focused on the talent show. She wanted to marry the prince, so she bumped into Xu Qingmo, although in the end she got the advantage of others. , but Fu Zhaozhao also did a lot of dirty things to the Xu family, overtly and covertly.
Xu Qingmo lowered his eyes and thought deeply. After a long time, he suddenly said: "Brother, I hate Fu Zhaozhao!"
Xu Yanquan, who was sitting outside, was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "I hate her too!"
"Ah?" Xu Qingmo was a little confused. He opened the curtain and stuck out his head to look at Xu Yanquan, "Why do you hate her?"
"Pretentious!" Xu Yanquan looked back at her and said softly, "I don't have a few ounces of ink in my belly, but I always have a charming look. I have a rosy face and a great body, but I always pretend to be delicate and weak. I Very unhappy!"
"Oh..." Xu Qingmo said a long "oh" and then got back.
Xu Qingmo was originally thinking about how to speak ill of Fu Zhaozhao and make her elder brother hate her. Then she would never be able to enter the Xu family in this life. Unexpectedly, her elder brother didn't like her. In an instant, she didn't worry about it at all. But it was her She forgot that her elder brother didn't like that kind of pretentious woman.
Xu Yanquan took Xu Qingmo around and bought a lot of fabrics and jewelry. She was praised all the way, and her brother's vanity was satisfied all the way. He finally wanted to go back, but on the way back, he met the Xu family's carriage.
The carriage ran very fast, as if it was deliberately avoiding them. Xu Yanquan didn't take it seriously, thinking that it was someone from the house who came out to buy something, but Xu Qingmo clearly saw that the young man sitting in the carriage was Mrs. Wen. The son of the old woman next to me.
Xu Qingmo slowly lowered the car curtain without making a sound.
As soon as the brother and sister arrived at the door of the house, they met Xu Qingling. She was walking out, breathing smoothly, as if she had come to greet them, but the embroidered shoes she inadvertently exposed were covered with dust.
Xu Qingling walked to Xu Yanquan and complained softly: "Brother, why do you only take your sister out with you?"
Xu Yanquan didn't like Xu Qingling's cute and naive look. He frowned slightly and then said, "If you don't lie down in the room, what are you doing here?"
Xu Qingling's face was indeed not looking good. Although she had put on rouge, she was still pale to the naked eye: "Brother is still blaming Qingling for my sister's affairs!"
When Xu Yanquan saw her looking like she was about to cry, he became very annoyed. He quickly excused himself and walked out: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"
"Brother, remember to come back for dinner!" Xu Qingmo greeted, regardless of whether Xu Yanquan heard it or not, he passed Xu Qingling and left.
"Xu Qingmo!" Xu Qingling scolded coldly.
Xu Qingmo stopped and looked back at her: "Is something wrong?"
"Don't think that someone will support you now that eldest brother is back!" Xu Qingling looked at Xu Qingmo fiercely.
Xu Qingmo looked at Xu Qingling for a long time, then laughed: "Support me?"
"Although eldest brother prefers you, he is always reasonable..."
"So what?" Xu Qingmo sneered, "He is my brother, not yours!"
Xu Qingling was stunned and wanted to say something else, but Xu Qingmo had already left.
Xu Qingling gritted her teeth and held the maid's hand tightly. She waited until everyone was gone before slowly letting go of her hand and coldly snorted: "Let's go!"
As soon as Xu Qingmo returned to the yard, Qu Lian trotted over and was about to speak when she saw Hua Ying shaking her head at her. Qu Lian quickly closed her mouth and followed Xu Qingmo back to the house.
Xu Qingmo sat down and Hua Ying quickly poured hot tea: "Girl, please drink the hot tea first!"
"Who is Xu Qingling going to see?" Xu Qingmo said coldly, looking at the cup of hot tea in front of him.
"My servant didn't dare to follow too closely. They went to a nearby teahouse. I waited for a long time after the second girl left, and then I saw Lin Shaoyang, Young Master Lin, the youngest son of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance!" Qu Lian looked at Xu Qingmo. , said cautiously.
Xu Qingmo was not surprised and nodded lightly: "I understand!"
Qu Lian wanted to say something else, but she was pulled out by Hua Ying. When she got to the door, Qu Lian's face was filled with wonder: "What's wrong, girl?"
"When we came back, we met the second girl outside!" Hua Ying pulled Qu Lian to the side. "The second girl ran back ahead of us, pretending to be here to greet our girl and brother. In fact, she came back from outside, and I saw the dust on her shoes, so the girl must have seen it too!"
"Tell me, what are you doing with Young Master Lin? Is it to discuss marriage?" Qu Lian couldn't help but ask.
Hua Ying had some understanding of the situation in the capital, so she shook her head: "The second master has separated from our marquis a long time ago. Although the two masters have a deep love for each other, the second master is only a fourth-grade general after all. , from the Shangshu Mansion, I’m afraid they may not look down on our second girl who has a higher level of ambition than anyone else!”
"Then the second girl is like this. Isn't it a waste of water to draw water from a bamboo basket?" Qu Lian exclaimed.
Hua Ying frowned and pinched Qu Lian's hand: "You won't keep your voice down!"
Qu Lian quickly shut up.
Hua Ying looked around and made sure there was no one around, then she said softly: "Several concubine sons in the Lin family are all well-educated. Those who are successful are officials, those who are good at settling accounts are doing business, and those who are good at studying are role models, but that one is the best. The two legitimate sons born to this eldest lady are of little use! The eldest lady has been holding back her anger, how could she let her son marry the daughter of a fourth-grade military general!"
Qu Lian suddenly realized, but then she said, "What if Mr. Lin won't marry her unless she is the one?"
