Lu Jiu shook his head and magnanimously refused to argue with a brat like Xiao Hanyang. He turned around and smiled at Xiao Chenyu. He returned to his dandy nature and said, "Since he is Mr. Xiao's nephew, he is one of his own. Any apology would be too outrageous."
Xiao Chenyu also said a few more good words. The two of them chatted back and forth, and they really seemed to be old friends for many years. Only the two of them knew that they had met twice and neither of them had spoken a few words.
On the surface, Xiao Chenyu was laughing. He had heard Qin Xi say that Lu Jiu was more like a playboy, but at this moment, it seemed that Lu Jiu was not a simple playboy, but he was also a person with deep flaws in his chest.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chenyu cheered up to deal with Lu Jiu. At this time, it was not for Xiao Hanyang, but for Qin Xiang who cooperated with Lu Jiu. Xiao Chenyu wanted to find out about this person.
"It seems that a flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple. We are all family members, so we don't have to get entangled in trivial matters. Since we have met today, it is considered fate. Why don't we let the juniors leave first, and we brothers have a good drink? How about the drinks? I think Mr. Xiao is also a cheerful person. It seems that we will definitely become good friends."
Xiao Chenyu laughed loudly and accepted these words, and then said to Xiao Hanyang and the others: "Master Lu Jiu is being generous by not pursuing the case. Don't offend others casually in the future. You may not meet someone like Master Lu Jiu next time." You are such a talkative person. I will talk to Mr. Lu Jiu, you go back first."
After listening to Xiao Chenyu's words, the three of them stood up and left, and Xiao Hanyang remained silent with a cold face.
When they were about to go out, Xiao Chenyu remembered something and called Xiao Hanyang again, saying: "Go and tell Xiao Qi and let him go first. I will go home directly later."
"Okay, let's take a carriage back together later." Lu Jiu also said at the side.
When Yun Niang heard that Lu Jiu was leaving at night, her expression suddenly changed. She couldn't help biting her lip and stretched out her hand to tug Lu Jiu's sleeves. However, this coquettish action did not attract Lu Jiu's sideways glance.
Xiao Hanyang nodded, turned around and strode outside.
Xiao Hanyang almost exploded with anger. He spent money to listen to music, but was disturbed by this man surnamed Lu. He was detained after a disagreement, and the reinforcements who moved in turned out to be his second uncle.
I can't tell whether it's anger or envy. Why is my second uncle, who is only three or four years older than me, more respected than me?
The young Xiao Hanyang was extremely depressed. He ignored the shouts of the two people behind him and just strode out of the courtyard.
At a glance, they saw Xiao Qi sitting in the front of the carriage chatting with the driver. The carriage was rented by Zhu Haoyang, so they naturally got on the carriage and urged the driver to leave quickly.
Xiao Qi was pulled aside. She was surprised and looked at the door that had been closed. Why were only these three people coming out but the second master had not come out?
At this time, the carriage started to start. Xiao Qi hurriedly pulled the driver to wait for a moment, then quickly climbed onto the carriage, opened the curtain and asked Xiao Hanyang: "Master Hanyang, where is my second master? Why didn't you see him come out?"
Xiao Hanyang was always quick-tempered, and when he was angry, he said angrily: "Your master told you to go home first. He will naturally go back after drinking."
After saying that, he urged Xiao Qi to get down quickly and ordered the coachman to leave this place.
He never imagined how big a storm was in Xiao Qi's head. He turned to look at the closed courtyard door and murmured: "Second Master wants to drink flower wine? How should I tell my wife?"
Xiao Qi thought for a while, but still didn't leave. It would be hard to explain when she went back anyway, so she just sat on the floor and waited.
It was almost dark, and then Xiao Chenyu and Lu Jiu came out. Both of them were drunk and staggered. A beautiful woman supported Lu Jiu and stared at Lu Jiu's profile worriedly, while Lu Jiu put one hand around Xiao Chenyu's neck and spoke.
Xiao Qi hurriedly stepped forward to help Xiao Chenyu. Xiao Chenyu shook his head to clear his head. After seeing clearly that it was Xiao Qi, he leaned forward with confidence and almost pushed Xiao Qi down.
"Xiao Qi, didn't I ask you to leave first? Why are you still waiting here?" Xiao Chenyu's words were a bit unfavorable.
Xiao Qi said with a bitter face: "Second Master, don't let your wife know about your drinking of flower wine, otherwise, neither of us will get any good results."
Lu Jiu turned to look at Xiao Chenyu and saw Xiao Chenyu shaking his head and saying: "No, she won't be angry. Your wife is the most calm and self-possessed person. How could she be angry because of me?"
Lu Jiu, who has been in the entertainment scene for many years, has a much better drinking capacity than Xiao Chenyu. Although he also looks drunk, he is actually quite sober. After hearing Xiao Chenyu's words, he couldn't help but frown slightly, looked deeply at Xiao Chenyu, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, if Mrs. Xiao Er is angry, just blame it on me."
When he arrived at the door of Xiao's house, Xiao Chenyu waved his hand and refused Lu Jiu's support, saying: "Brother Lu Jiu, please go back and rest first. I can just go home by myself."
But Lu Jiu still followed him out of the carriage: "I'd better send Brother Xiao in together. If Mrs. Xiao Er is angry, I can explain it to you."
When the two refused at the door, the door opened, and Qiao Dazhuang came out. Seeing two drunkards pulling him, he hurriedly came over to help Xiao Chenyu, and asked Lu Jiu's entourage to take him back.
Qin Xiang was busy during the day, so she lit a lamp to check the family's expense accounts sent by Li Siniang.
Li Siniang was worthy of being trained by a wealthy family, and she had been the head of the family for two years. The accounts were very clear, and even Qin Xiang couldn't find any problems.
Just at this time, Xiaomei hurried in and reported: "Madam, the second master is back and he is drunk."
Qin Xiang raised her head from the account book, frowned, and asked, "Where is he?"
"Sent back to the yard of the second master and his wife."
Qin Xiang stood up, handed the account book to Li Siniang, and said: "Go and fetch water for the second master to bathe. I will go and take a look."
Xiao Chenyu has always behaved very calmly, why would he run out to drink during school hours?
When she returned to the house, Qin Xiang saw no one. She heard that Xiao Chenyu had gone to the bathroom to take a bath.
So, Qin Xiang walked to the bathroom, walked around the screen, and saw Xiao Chenyu sitting in the bathtub, his head tilted to the side of the bathtub, dozing off, and the clothes he had changed were thrown messily on the floor.
Qin Xiang bent down to pick up the scattered clothes. Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat.
She has an unparalleled sensitivity to fragrance: Xiao Chenyu's robe has the scent of women's powder, is there a woman accompanying him when he drinks?
He raised the robe a little higher and took another sniff. Sure enough, it was a seductive scent of powder mixed with the smell of wine and meat. Together, it was the smell that Qin Xiang had hated the most.
At this moment, Qin Xiang thought that time had gone back. She squeezed her robe tightly and stared at the man in the bathtub, her eyes as fierce as a Rakshasa.
Qin Xiang threw her clothes to the ground, turned around and left the bathroom, and said to the maid Xiaozhu who was waiting outside: "Go and call Xiaoqi over. I have something to ask him."
