The Xiao family's residence is completely opposite to Xingyue Pavilion. Moreover, the Xiao family has no disease or disaster and is in excellent health. There is no need to see a doctor.
Chen Qiushui couldn't run away, he had a handsome face.
Ling Yutong raised his eyes and looked over. The one wearing a hairpin with hibiscus flowers must be Miss Xiao.
Mr. Xiao, the Minister of Household Affairs, has only one daughter, and he always favors her like jewels and jewels. Even her name is related to jewels.
Xiao Baozhu.
When Ling Yutong looked at her, she was also observing Ling Yutong.
The woman sitting in front of her had gauze hanging from her ears, and her appearance was vague. But just from the exposed eyebrows, she could get a glimpse of Ling Yutong's beauty.
Beauty is in the bones, not the skin, but Ling Yutong's beauty is first reflected in her temperament.
Like the white snow on the mountains, it makes people hold their breath.
Xiao Baozhu's arrogant attitude suddenly calmed down, but his expression became more alert. Chen Qiushui came here specially to find such a beauty, he couldn't be...
"Stop your mind!"
When Chen Qiushui looked back, he saw Xiao Baozhu's expression of thinking too much.
He knew it!
"Miss Ling and I have business matters to discuss. Don't think too much about it, let alone go back and tell your father."
Xiao Baozhu pursed her lips: "But you call her Miss Ling?"
"So close..."
Her mouth was so pouted that it could hang an oil can. Ling Yutong's eyes flashed and he realized that the other party regarded her as a love rival.
She won’t take the blame!
Ling Yutong saw Chen Qiushui's eyes light up, and her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "Miss Xiao, don't get me wrong, Chen Yushi and I are just a patient and a doctor."
At the same time, Chen Qiushui raised his eyebrows: "Yeah, I just call her a little closer, but in fact it has nothing to do with her. If you insist on doubting her, I won't be able to protect you... I just want to have something to do with her."
Xiao Baozhu: "..."
She pouted even more, feeling very unhappy, and looked at Ling Yutong even more warily.
Three black lines were drawn on Ling Yutong's head.
"Please, both of you, tell us what's serious."
Xiao Baozhu said first: "Miss Ling, you are so powerful. I sent an invitation to your house, but you didn't even accept it, so you refused. This made me embarrassed in front of so many noble ladies."
face!"
"Why, don't you look down on me?"
Ling Yutong's head was filled with questions.
She looked sideways at Song Yue and asked, "Invitation from the Xiao family? Why don't I remember it?"
Songyue frowned and recalled, and whispered: "That day, you entered the palace. Before leaving, I specifically told you that everything should be put down first. The queen's side is more important."
Ling Yutong nodded and looked at Xiao Baozhu: "I'm sorry, I did tell you that that day, and I did stay in the palace very late."
On one side is the empress and on the other is the lady of the Shangshu family. There is no need to compare which one is more important.
Xiao Baozhu knew that she was in the wrong as soon as she heard this, but when she saw Ling Yutong's calm and calm look, she felt angry and couldn't help but refuse to give up.
"Then when you come back from the palace, won't the servant who received the invitation explain it to you?"
"The servant must have failed to convey the message properly, and you didn't take it to heart at all!"
Xiao Baozhu was aggressive, and Song Yue frowned: "Miss Xiao, I was already very tired after going back last night. I got up again this morning to take Mr. Qi out of the capital. It was my own initiative and I didn't let the concierge disturb the girl. If you want to blame, just..."
Xiao Baozhu's eyes widened, and his charming voice seemed so sharp at this moment.
"I'm talking to Miss Ling, and you, a slave, have no business interrupting me."
"Shut up."
Song Yue hesitated, and she understood that she was too impatient, but Xiao Baozhu's attitude, she...
Ling Yutong gave Song Yue a reassuring look, and when she looked at Xiao Baozhu, her face turned cold.
"If Miss Xiao invites me with such an attitude, I don't think there is any need to go."
"Since you are not here for medical treatment, please go out. Chen Yushi and I still have something to discuss."
She immediately issued an eviction order.
Xiao Baozhu's eyes widened with anger, and the hibiscus hairpin on her head was dangling, swaying left and right with her anger.
Chen Qiushui couldn't stand it anymore and quickly winked at the maid who was following Xiao Baozhu.
"Hey, I think your lady is feeling a little uncomfortable. It must be because the weather is hot and she is going to suffer from heat stroke. There is ice next door. Please help your lady to rest for a while."
As soon as he gave the order, the maid subconsciously raised her hand to help Xiao Baozhu go.
Ling Yutong's eyes flashed and he remembered such details in his heart.
She searched for their identities, one was the son of the Minister of Punishment, and the other was the daughter of the Minister of Hubu.
"I won't leave! Ling Yutong doesn't respect me!"
"Brother Qiushui knows how to drive me away..."
But in the end, Xiao Baozhu was dragged out by the maid.
Ling Yutong glanced at Chen Qiushui suspiciously and whispered: "Miss Xiao's attitude towards you... There won't be an engagement between your two families, right?"
Chen Qiushui stiffened all over.
Songyue's hand shaking as she poured the tea almost spilled the tea.
Chen Qiushui stared at Ling Yutong for a while, his shoulders slowly slumped, and said: "It's not particularly difficult to guess, but this engagement has not been made public, so only people in the aristocratic circle know about it."
Songyue's eyes were dazed for a moment, and her lips pursed tighter.
After the tea was poured, she stood behind Ling Yutong with her head lowered. Her too quiet behavior made Chen Qiushui look at her.
Ling Yutong shrugged: "No wonder, she is full of hostility when she sees me, and the little girl can't control her temper at the slightest conversation."
Chen Qiushui couldn't help but laugh: "You are special. Others know that I am engaged to her and they want to avoid me. How about you, just get angry with others and issue an eviction order?"
"That's not a coincidence. It gives you a chance to take him out."
Ling Yutong replied casually.
She signaled Songyue to close the door tightly, and said in a calm voice: "Okay, after going through such a big circle, when are you going to talk about the business?"
"If you don't say anything, just leave quickly. I don't want to arouse the jealousy of the delicate girl."
Chen Qiushui was helpless. He had already considered this message a little. After Xiao Baozhu made such a fuss, the solemn atmosphere in his heart dissipated a little.
"The errand that Qi Yan took this time may have affected Yu Jinghong's interests. As long as Yu Jinghong is not stupid, he will definitely attack the Qi family, including but not limited to your family, when Qi Yan leaves the capital."
Ling Yutong was startled, Yu Jinghong, Yu family?
Chen Qiushui knew from the look on her expression that she didn't know.
He raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Qi Yan didn't tell you?"
Yu Jinghong is not a metaphor for Nan Xun. He is a person who actually holds power in his hands. In a metaphorical relationship, he is almost inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
If such a person deliberately attacks the Qi family, then forget about the women. The men will definitely be the target of the attack.
The civil and military circles of the Zhou Dynasty did not have a harmonious relationship that went hand in hand.
Ling Yutong pursed her lips: "I really don't know, but I probably know why he didn't say anything."
She is a female family member. Even if she is currently supporting Xingyue Pavilion alone and is ridiculed by many noble ladies, in Yu Jinghong's eyes, she is just a female.
Not enough to be afraid of.
Therefore, the best way for her to protect herself is not to confront Yu Jinghong.
But...she doesn't want to.
Qi Yan didn't know that she and the Yu family had been fighting each other since the previous life, but she would never forget it.
Not to mention, no one in the Yu family has been harmed.
