48. Chapter 48 Self-inflicted

"It's Mr. Chen who is the divination order." Qianxi made nonsense, her face not changing: "At that time, your Excellency was watching the stars at night, and I asked him to help me look at my mother's fortune palace. Mr. Chen said that my mother's fortune has improved greatly this year.

, but the cause of the change lies with the second brother."

"My second brother is destined to be rich and powerful. He has to be trapped for fifteen years first. Once the year of study is over, he will soar into the sky and realize his grand ambitions. Do you understand what I say?"

Since it was Master Taibu, Chunya and Qiuwei naturally nodded in confusion.

"That's right, that's right!" Caiwei didn't care whether her young lady was telling nonsense or not, and said firmly: "Madam, everything is going well now, and next is the second young master. If you are still crying and wiping away tears all day long, be careful!

It’s ruining the second young master’s luck!”

"Slaves don't dare!" Chunya and Qiuwei were both frightened.

So what if they have served the second young master for many years? If Mrs. Fan feels that they have hindered the young master's luck, she will send them away without any reason.

After coming out of Mu Yi Zhai, Qian Xi walked a few steps and saw from a distance that the woman who had just entered and blocked the way was talking to Ming Geer's nanny, Liao Shi, and they were laughing and chatting in a low voice, looking intimate.

Qian Xi sneered, no wonder the old woman came up to her as soon as she entered the door, and even pretended to be kind and gave her directions, but in fact she didn't want her to come into contact with Brother Ming! Since the last time she had an enmity with Qin Yueqian, Mrs. Yan has been on guard against her.

She was afraid that if she got a chance to get close to Brother Ming, she would be framed for revenge.

After a while, Mrs. Liao went in to look for Brother Ming. Qianxi's lips curled up slightly and she walked towards the old lady.

"The Fourth Miss is coming out." The woman still had a neutral expression on her face.

"Yes, I just asked my mother to lead the way. It's really hard for my mother to take care of the yard every day. Caiwei——" Qian Xi tilted her head and winked.

Caiwei stepped forward and handed a purse into the old woman's hand.

"Oh, no reward for no work, how can this be so?" The old lady squeezed it with her hand, and she knew it was a silver coin just by weighing it, and her face immediately turned into a smile.

"My second brother often goes out. He opens the door and closes the door. I hope my mother will be more attentive. How can I say that I am receiving a salary for nothing?"

"Fourth Miss is too polite. This is my servant's business."

Nodding and smiling, Qian Xi changed the topic: "Was Brother Ming in the yard just now?"

The old woman was startled, then replied: "Yes, I just came here to play for a while."

Seeing the nervous look on the old woman's face confirmed Qian Xi's thoughts, she immediately frowned and said, "It would be better if Brother Ming is not allowed in this yard in the future. The young master of the Li family has bad conduct!"

"What did Miss Fourth see?" The mother-in-law's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

"I didn't see it, but I heard it through the wall. It seems that Brother Ming wanted to borrow the pocket book of the young master of the Li family to read it. The young master of the Li family deceived Brother Ming because he was young and refused to give it to him. Poor Brother Ming begged to use it.

In exchange for pine and stone marbles, the young master of the Li family actually said that our brother Ming is not worthy of studying..." Qian Xi looked angry.

"No way, the fourth young master is accompanied by someone." The mother-in-law was dubious.

"What's the use of following people? Young Master Ke is the legitimate son of the Li family. Even the Third Young Master wouldn't dare to offend him, let alone the servants. They all bully the Fourth Young Master and surround him to make things happen. If there's really a fuss, who will?

It's not a bad thing!" After that, Caiwei pouted and added in a low voice: "If it were me, I would settle the matter and not tell anyone until I die, so I won't be punished in vain."

The woman's heart moved.

Qian Xi said solemnly: "The brothers in our house are all very noble. There are so many noble princes and grandsons that we can make friends with. Why bother to accommodate a young master of the Li family! This time I heard him ridicule Brother Ming. I will remember it next time

Doesn't he even dare to be mean and deceitful to others?! Brother Ming is still young after all, and he doesn't know the sinister nature of people's hearts. It's natural that we should protect him more."

"That's right, that's right." The mother-in-law agreed repeatedly. She would rather believe it or not. If Brother Ming was really wronged in this courtyard, she would not be able to escape her involvement.

Seeing this, Qianxi took Caiwei and left with a smile.

After a while, Ms. Liao came out with Brother Ming and two girls. The caretaker hurriedly called Ms. Liao aside. She did not dare to say that it was Qian Xi who said it, only that someone heard it.

Liao's face suddenly turned green, and she went over to ask Brother Ming warmly if he had exchanged turquoise marbles for a pocket book. Brother Ming's answer was naturally that Li Ke refused to give it. Finally, he told the wet nurse enthusiastically, "Three

My brother promised to buy him a picture book next time as compensation.

Sure enough, he coaxed Brother Ming to accommodate Li Ke, and everything was exactly what the caretaker said!

After thanking the mother-in-law, Mrs. Liao didn't even look at the two girls. She picked up Brother Ming and hurried to Yan's Guiyan Hall in the west courtyard.

Early the next morning, Caiwei rushed in from outside like the wind.

"Miss, Miss, the young master of the Li family was sent back by the third lady. It was because the third young master caught a cold and caught a wind, and I was afraid of giving it to him." Caiwei flashed her big eyes, unable to hide the cunning and cheerful smile inside.

"Really!" Qian Xi was naturally happy that Yan was so efficient. And given Yan's character, it would be even more difficult for the young master of the Li family to come to the Qin Mansion to play around.

Poor Li had no choice but to pretend that her son was ill in order not to offend both parties. In the future, she would also try her best to prevent Li Ke from coming to the house. One can imagine how much resentment this would create.

Since the Yan family formed this grudge with the Li family, the one who benefited the most was of course Dafang, who was killing two birds with one stone.

"This is called self-inflicted evil! Look at them bullying the second young master in the future!" Caiwei and Qianxi covered their mouths, and the more they thought about it, the funnier they became, and they fell into a ball.

Lu Wu came in through the curtain and saw this scene. He suppressed a smile and raised his voice and said, "Miss, Sister-in-law Guo is here."

She is really a diligent and smart person. She sent a letter last night and came in early this morning. Qian Xi smiled and asked Lu Wu to pass her in.

Suddenly, Sister-in-law Guo came in to greet her, and first offered a flat box: "Miss Fourth, I haven't bought all the spices you ordered me to buy. Because I don't know why the lady summoned me, my servant brought in the purchased part first.

"

"Yeah." Qian Xi glanced at her and asked, "How is the nanny?"

"Aunt Zhao is fine." Sister-in-law Guo just thought that Qian Xi was talking about home affairs.

Unexpectedly, Qian Xi said: "Well, you go back today and bring her a letter, telling her to worry more about Sangyuan. I want to send you a very important errand. I'm afraid it will take ten and a half days."

Don’t care about that.”

"yes."

"Is this difficult to say? But except for the few people in the room today, you can't let it out. Can you do it?" Qian Xi stared at Sister-in-law Guo's calm eyes.

Sister-in-law Guo's heart trembled: "Don't worry, slave, even the head of my own family will never tell him a word!"

"Okay." Qian Xi then asked Sister-in-law Guo to come to her side and whispered.

Sister-in-law Guo thought it would be a very secretive and important matter, but unexpectedly Qianxi asked her to go out and find out what the officials and adults of the Yuefu who were walking around were busy with recently, whether they were recruiting musicians, actors, etc.
