Lin Qingge's eyes were very clear, and the black and white eyes seemed to be able to speak, flashing with various emotions.
There were those who were dissatisfied, those who were sarcastic, those who were sarcastic, and those who were uneasy and a little excited at the same time, which made Mr. Jiu frown.
Even if you don't know what she is thinking, you know it's not a good thing.
He pursed his lips slightly: "The general and I are old friends, and the current situation is special. If his family is in need, I will naturally bear the responsibility."
It made sense, but if he had said it when they first met, she would have really believed it.
Now……
Don't you think it's a little late?
She is not stupid and will believe everything others say.
"In this case, you must be familiar with my grandmother, right? It's better to choose a different day. Come with me back home today and say hello to my grandmother."
Without giving him a chance to refuse, she sighed softly: "My grandmother's hair has turned a lot whiter recently because of my husband-in-law's incident, but none of my so-called old friends have ever visited me. Hey, it's really heartless. , There are really not many people who are as benevolent and righteous as Mr. Jiu."
After saying these words, various emotions came to his mind.
The situation in the court was tense. In order to prevent the news from leaking, even to his most beloved grandmother, he did not reveal even the slightest bit of information that he was not in a coma.
It's just that this thing is a thorn in his side.
When he thought of Mrs. Chu staying up at night because of him, he felt like sitting on pins and needles.
But all of his reactions at this time fell into Lin Qingge's eyes, and there was only one thing -
He is a liar!
She had no intention of becoming an enemy of someone like Mr. Jiu, but she couldn't let him think he could manipulate her.
He immediately ignored his anxiety and said to the coachman outside: "Go to the General's Mansion!"
The driver was still hesitating, so she said to Shiqi, who was following on horseback not far away: "You drive."
"Yes, Madam." Shi Qi climbed onto the carriage without any hesitation.
Mr. Jiu's eyes suddenly narrowed, and the look he looked at Qi Qi was obviously gloomy.
"Mr. Jiu, you are my husband's old friend. Going to see my grandmother will definitely make her happy." Lin Qingge lowered the curtain, preventing their eyes from communicating.
It’s unclear whether Mrs. Chu will be happy or not, but based on Mrs. Chu’s understanding of him, she will recognize him at a glance even if he is wearing a mask!
How will it end then?
His brows furrowed, and there was a rare hint of impatience in his eyes: "What the young lady said is that since you are going to visit the elders, it is better to be more formal. There are no invitations or gifts now, I'm afraid..."
"Sir, what you said is wrong. Grandma doesn't care about etiquette. When my husband wakes up, no matter how many people congratulate you and no matter how heavy the gifts are, they can't compare to the sincerity shown by your husband at this time."
She had completely put him on the fire. If he refused again and tried to have contact with her in the future, he would really be marked as having ulterior motives.
"Young lady, we're here."
The carriage stopped, and Lin Qingge stepped out of the carriage with a smile, not forgetting to look back at Mr. Jiu: "Please, sir."
At this time, he was already riding a tiger and it was difficult to get off. Even if he didn't want to, he had no way to retreat.
He got off the carriage and looked at the three characters 'General's Mansion' with mixed feelings in his heart.
I don’t know how many times he has entered and exited this threshold, but he has never felt the emotions that surged like today.
In the past, he entered as the host, but today he entered as the guest.
Taking a deep breath, he lifted up his clothes, raised his feet and crossed the threshold, walking very naturally.
Lin Qingge, who was following behind, frowned and couldn't help but mutter: "Why is he more like a master than me? Just now he was unwilling to come, and now he is walking faster than anyone else. Can't he show his identity properly?"
She walked a few steps quickly and was half a step in front of him: "Sir, we are close friends with each other, but we are also foreigners. Please let me inform you first."
"How dare you stop me from visiting my grandmother?"
What he blurted out made Lin Qingge laugh angrily.
She raised her eyebrows and met his eyes: "Mr. Jiu, even if your relationship is as close as brothers. In essence, you are just a foreigner. You must abide by the rules of the general's palace when you meet the family members. Could it be that you are someone else's? Have something in mind?"
One sentence made Mr. Jiu wake up. He was a guest.
He slowly lowered his eyelids and said in a low voice, "I made the young lady laugh because I was rude. Please arrange the communication."
When he reached the gate of Songheyuan, he stood there politely, not forgetting to salute and thank him.
Lin Qingge was puzzled by his different reactions, but still nodded slightly and turned around and walked into Songhe Courtyard.
"My granddaughter-in-law has met my grandmother."
After saluting Mrs. Chu, she briefly introduced her and Mr. Jiu's acquaintance in Xia Garden, and also revealed her doubts about his identity.
"Grandma, since he is an old friend of my husband, there is no reason why he has never met my grandmother. So my granddaughter-in-law thought that taking this opportunity today, let him come to the house to meet my grandmother, so as to confirm his identity."
Since she married into the Chu family, nothing she did has escaped the eyes and ears of Mrs. Chu.
In fact, Mrs. Chu was very satisfied with her attitude and ability in handling various matters.
Just now...
"Qingge, it's not that grandma is unwilling to help you. It's just that Feng'er has been stationed at the border all year round, and I really have never met some friends."
"It doesn't matter even if grandma has never met him. My husband was raised by my grandma, so I naturally understand his temperament. You can definitely tell if this Mr. Jiu is a fake with just one look!"
As she spoke, she took the tea from Mother Wu and delivered it to Mrs. Chu herself: "Having an elder in the family is like having a treasure. If I were the only one, I really don't know how to deal with this matter."
"Your mouth is so sweet." Mrs. Chu took the tea cup with a smile, reached out and patted the back of Lin Qingge's hand, "Let people come in. Whether they are guests or not, our family must not lose etiquette."
"Yes, Grandma!"
As Lin Qingge nodded slightly, a smart girl immediately walked out: "Mr. Jiu, our old lady will let you in."
Soon, Mr. Jiu walked in.
Just as he came in, Lin Qingge immediately noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere.
Mrs. Chu, who had been amused by her just now, suddenly became very stiff, and the teacup in her hand tipped over.
If Lin Qing's singer hadn't quickly reached out to catch it, a glass of water would have spilled onto Mrs. Chu's skirt. Is this... Mr. Jiu really having a problem?
She winked at Mrs. Chu and signaled Mrs. Chu to calm down.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Chu didn't look at her at all, but stretched out her hand to push her away. A pair of old but still sharp eyes stared at Mr. Jiu.
"You...can you stand up? Feng'er, you can stand up!"
