Chapter 14

Guanxi Hou Qi Jin is 46 years old this year. He is a war god who is highly valued by the emperor and admired by the people in this dynasty.

It is said that on the night Qi Jin was born, the late emperor in the palace dreamed of a tiger wandering in front of his door. The late emperor chased the tiger out, but saw the tiger flying out of the palace and throwing into a family outside the imperial city. The next day, the late emperor woke up and went to the morning court and heard that the Qi family had a fat boy. The late emperor immediately remembered the dream and stood outside the hall to look out. The tiger in the dream fell into the position of the Guanxi Marquis Mansion.

Because of this dream, Qi Jin was given the word "Since he was born," Qi Jin Qi Huaihu.

The dragon is the emperor and the tiger is the general. The late emperor has high hopes for Qi Jin, and Qi Jin has not disappointed the expectations of the late emperor. In addition to being good at fighting, Qi Jin has the kindness of saving the late emperor and is loyal to the world. Qi Jin is a man who can lead troops to fight, but he is honest and has no intention in the court. He often offends people and has no acts of forming cliques and making personal gains. Therefore, the emperor uses him to use it with confidence, and Qi Jin causes some minor disasters, such as squirting the whip to teach the playboys in the villa. When the ministers sue the emperor, the emperor turns a blind eye.

The Qi family men looked down on literati when they were full of energy. It turned out that Qi Jin was like this. Until his first wife passed away, she held his hand and told him to choose a good woman with both moral integrity and talent as his wife for her two sons. The Qi family men only know how to fight and must have virtuous women to help raise their children.

Qi Jin and his first wife are childhood sweethearts. Qi Jin keeps his last words in mind. After his eldest son was lame, he gave up on himself and did not want to marry a wife. Qi Jin chose thousands of choices and asked the jewel of the Grand Tutor Song. Song Yilan, who is quite talented, is his second daughter-in-law.

Qi Jin is a rough man. After Song Yilan, who is as elegant as orchid, married, Qi Jin is like a rough martial artist who dug up an orchid and goes home. He wants to take care of this delicate flower carefully but is afraid that his hands will ruin the delicate petals. Qi Jin doesn't know how to let his daughter-in-law feel his protection for her, so she put down her words when Song Yilan worships tea. As long as his daughter-in-law asks him, no matter what, Qi Jin will satisfy his daughter-in-law.

Qi Jin was stupid in front of Song Yilan and couldn't express his concern for his daughter-in-law. Song Yilan was extremely polite and would not come to see her father-in-law for nothing. The two didn't have much contact. However, Qi Jin asked his son Qi Xiaochen more than once, ordering Qi Xiaochen to take good care of his daughter-in-law. If he found out that Qi Xiaochen had made his daughter-in-law wronged, don't blame him for being my relatives.

Qi Xiaochen once was glad that his father didn’t have much time at home, and also glad that Song Yilan did not fight or rob, and did not expose the affairs of him and Liu Yingying.

Qi Xiaochen is no longer grateful now.

The day before Qi Jin returned to Beijing, Qi Xiaochen went to Lanfang Pavilion with a wooden box.

He and Yue Lian were like newlywed couples on their honeymoon, and they were dating each other. They hadn't come to see Su Li for a few days.

"Second Master is asking me for something?" Su Li treated him politely, and Chunjian and Qiu Ming were naturally indispensable around him.

Qi Xiaochen smiled and said, "You sent someone to clean your father's side these days. I've seen it. It's as clean as a newly built house. I should have made some statements if you are so filial to your father."

After saying that, Qi Xiaochen took out the long box put in his chest, opened it, and then placed it in front of Su Li.

Su Li glanced at it and found that there was a green jade orchid hairpin inside, which looked like a good thing.

Su Li took out the hairpin and said in surprise: "This jade is so good, how much money did the second master spend?"

Qi Xiaochen raised two fingers at her.

Su Li said deliberately: "Two hundred taels?"

Qi Xiaochen glared at the eyes: "Two thousand taels, you are also a lady from a wealthy family, why don't you recognize the goods?"

Su Li snorted: "It's not that I don't know the goods, I can't believe that the Second Master is willing to give me such an expensive hairpin. If the Second Master gives the hairpin to my cousin, I dare to guess 20,000 taels."

He was mocking him again. Qi Xiaochen looked at Su Li's cute lips, and suddenly wanted to taste what it was like to kiss him.

For this idea or not to talk nonsense in front of her father to make her happy, Qi Xiaochen smiled apologized and said, "Madam, why always mention the old things in the past? Didn't I change it? Madam doesn't want me to see my cousin. I haven't seen her for more than half a month. Madam let me spoil Yuelian, and I am as your wish. I listen to you in everything. Madam should give me a smile, right?"

Su Li smiled at him like a charity.

Qi Xiaochen actually thought it was pretty good and discussed: "I want to tell you something alone, let them both go down first? I promise not to touch you."

Su Li didn't believe it, and said with a glance: "Second Master wants to talk about his father, right? Don't worry, as long as you keep the promise, I won't complain in front of my father."

Qi Xiaochen wanted to ask this, but there was another thing: "My father is back. Do you see if we should have a room to rest first? Let's show it to my father as if it were a good example..."

Su Li interrupted him and said, "No need, it's the matter in our yard anyway. You and I will restrict the people around you separately and ensure that the words cannot be heard from my father."

She blocked everything back, so Qi Xiaochen had to go to Yuelian obediently.

The next day was Xiu Mu, so Qi Xiaochen didn't have to go to the barracks.

After calculating the time, Su Li and Qi Xiaochen headed side by side to the foyer opposite the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, waiting for the Marquis' return.

Qi Jin has been away from home for a year. On the day he came back, Qi Lingyun finally left the Zhulin courtyard and came to wait.

The cousin Liu Yingying also came, and she came the earliest.

As soon as Su Li and Qi Xiaochen appeared outside the hall, Liu Yingying stood up from Qi Lingyun's head. She seemed to have become thinner. Her small face as big as a palm was soft and delicate. Her white dress outlined her slender waist. She just looked at Qi Xiaochen with grievance and felt a pity of rootless duckweed.

Qi Xiaochen felt distressed, but he glanced at Su Li beside him and covered up the distress in time. He didn't look at Liu Yingying again, and sat directly opposite Qi Lingyun.

Su Li smiled at Liu Yingying: "It's all a family, so my cousin doesn't have to be too polite."

Liu Yingying nodded and sat down again at Qi Lingyun's head.

The atmosphere in the foyer is very subtle.

Qi Lingyun held the tea bowl with a light expression. Liu Yingying looked at Qi Xiaochen's clothes slantedly. Qi Xiaochen leaned against the back of the chair to check his nails, while Su Li looked at the three people back and forth with openness.

Finally, the servant came in to report that the marquis had turned into the alley.

So Feiquan pushed Qi Lingyun and walked in front, Su Li and Qi Xiaochen walked in the middle, Liu Yingying cushioned, and everyone went to the door to pick up people.

Qi Jin rode on a high-headed war horse in armor. The god of war in his forties, with a tiger back and a bear waist, as color as bronze, with thick short beard like Zhang Fei. His handsome and heroic spirit turned into a silly spirit because of this beard.

Su Li couldn't help but laughed when Qi Jin pulled his horse to look at her.

Qi Lingyun, Qi Xiaochen, and Liu Yingying all looked at her.

Su Li quickly curled her smile.

Qi Jin was unhappy.

I remember that my daughter-in-law didn’t love to laugh very much, and she smiled politely, but just now my daughter-in-law smiled as sweet and cute as a flower, and she looked more like a lovable little girl.

A laugh means that the daughter-in-law is having a happy life, it’s better to laugh like this every day.

Ignoring the salutes of the two sons and niece, Qi Jin got off the horse and asked Su Li with a loud voice: "Why did Yilan laugh just now?"

Su Li had no better reason, so she had to tell the truth and lowered her eyes: "My father hasn't taken care of his beard for a year, and his daughter-in-law doesn't look like you anymore."

Beard?

Qi Jin touched his beard. He did not shave much this year. Qi Jin didn't care about his appearance. Since his daughter-in-law said that, he would ask someone to shave him later.

"It's all my fault for being sloppy, and Yilan was laughing." Qi Jin laughed and asked Su Li after laughing: "How is it? Did my second brother bully you when I was not at home?"

After hearing this, Su Li looked at Qi Xiaochen.

Qi Xiaochen started sweating again on his back, and he rushed to say, "Father is joking again. I have a good relationship with Yilan. Why do I bully her for no reason?"

"Shut up!" Qi Jin glared at his son mercilessly, "Who asked you? I want Yilan to say it myself."

Su Li smiled and said, "The Second Master treats me very well. My father returns from afar. Come into the house and have a tea."

Only then did Qi Jin believe that his son did not bully his daughter-in-law.

Everyone went back to the living room.

The maids brought tea, and Su Li wanted to pour tea for Qi Jin himself, but as soon as she picked up the teapot, Qi Jin suddenly jumped out of the chair, and Qi Xiaochen, who had just sat firmly, jumped up quickly. He got up, and Liu Yingying had to follow him, and in the end everyone stared at Qi Jin who was shocked.

Qi Jinxu pressed the teapot and said to Su Li like a baby girl: "This is what the maids do. What do you do? Go and sit down."

Su Li insisted: "I am my daughter-in-law, it is my duty to respect you. My father is so polite to me. Did he treat me as an outsider?"

Qi Jin hurriedly said: "No, no, I..."

Su Li just smiled: "Sit down quickly."

Qi Jin was helpless and sat half of his butt on the chair, staring at his daughter-in-law's hand nervously, ready to save his daughter-in-law immediately after being scalded. This nervous attitude was even more than that of him in front of the emperor.

Liu Yingying was jealous.

Qi Xiaochen's back was still sweating.

Su Li poured the tea and held it in front of Qi Jin in both hands.

Qi Jin took the tea and smiled and asked Su Li to sit down. At this time, he found that his second son had already sat firmly. Qi Jin couldn't help but snorted coldly, scolding his son and said, "Your brother is not convenient for his legs and feet. You are so good, why don't you know how to respect me? I have raised you for so many years and have worked hard to pull you up, but in the end it's not as filial as my daughter-in-law."

It was not until this time that Qi Jin understood why his wife asked him to choose a well-educated and well-educated daughter-in-law. Only such a daughter-in-law could teach his future grandson well, otherwise his grandson would become like his son and he would know that he was comfortable.

Qi Jin stared at Qi Xiaochen with disgust.

Qi Xiaochen died unjustly and stood up to defend himself: "We are husband and wife. Isn't it equivalent to me to respect you?"

Qi Jin said angrily: "What's this? According to your opinion, after Yilan eats, you don't have to eat?"

Qi Xiaochen:...

He looked at Su Li with a breath.

Su Li sat in a regular manner with a gentle face.

Qi Xiaochen clenched his fists secretly!
