Xiao Muzhi said his goodbyes and left, the Mrs. Xue asked Auntie Flower, ”Why are you protecting him, it's because I don't like him recently.”
”Aiyo, mistress, you have endured for so many years, but you have been tolerating it recently. Master values Adjutant Xiao more and more, don't do something stupid by accident.”
Auntie Flower consoled Mrs. Xue, and the servants in the house did not know about this. Other than Auntie Flower, who had been wronged, Mrs. Xue did not tell anyone else that he was a considerate person.
”Endure …” Endure until the end! ” The Mrs. Xue was furious. On the surface, he only treated Xiao Muzhi so well, but as for the reason why he treated Xiao Muzhi so well behind his back, he would think about it even if he was planning.
”Also, I see that old master is beginning to dislike Lao Er more and more. Who do you think has a good temper, for him to be so stubborn?”
Mrs. Xue had already advised him many times, it would be best not to go against him, but Qi Yue refused to listen.
”Who else could it be? She has the same stubborn temper as Madame. ” Auntie Flower giggled, and it was difficult for the two of them to get the walnuts out of their hands. Mrs. Xue became angry and threw the half-finished walnuts into the plate.
”Not anymore, it's not for him to eat anyway.” The Mrs. Xue only wanted to teach Xiao Muzhi a lesson, so she didn't want to waste her time.
Mistress did not see it, Xiao Muzhi's hands were already red, you are just venting your anger, it does not have any benefits to yourself.
Auntie Flower observed that when a man does these things, he is not as nimble as a woman.
”I can see that.” Mrs. Xue also knew that he was reckless this time, but he was unwilling to admit his mistakes.
Madam, you have already given way for dozens of years, and in the end, it is all because of the young masters and young miss. Therefore, no matter how much more old master thinks highly of Xiao Muzhi, he will not be able to surpass our Second Young Master.
Auntie Flower said whatever he wanted to say, but the lump of anger he was holding in in in his heart finally calmed down.
The study room was extremely bright. Recently, Qi Yue would go to the study room whenever he had nothing to do, and sometimes, he would visit Jin Se to talk for a while. For Qi Yue, this was the greatest relaxation he could muster.
Qi Yue was feeling depressed in his heart, the unhappy things that happened with Governor Qi just now were still echoing in his head, and in the evening, Jin Se actually came over.
Jin Se rarely walked in Qi Yue's study room, and since it was like this, Qi Yue was extremely happy in his heart, and all the issues suddenly disappeared without a trace.
”What is Second Elder Brother thinking?”
Jin Se had clearly come prepared, she also did not like to go out, especially in such a hot weather. Other than the great power of ”love” which could let people go out easily every day, she did not have any other magical power.
”Nothing, just business.” Qi Yue looked at Jin Se and started sweating. Walking over, he actually wasn't too far away from him, but Jin Se was still very hot. He carefully fanned himself with a small fan.
Qi Yue had not seen Qi Zhen lately, so he asked, ”What about Third Sister? Is he not here all this time? ”
Jin Se laughed bitterly, ”Yes, Third Elder Sister is currently living a happy life. He has to prepare his aunt to go out to play everyday.”
”Play for a while?” If my mother catches her, I think she might find it easy! ” Qi Yue wasn't angry either. He was just helpless, a girl shouldn't be left behind, especially someone like Qi Zhen who was infatuated with others. If he really fell in love with someone, then he would focus all his attention on that person.
”Is everyone in the room?” Qi Yue fished out a clean handkerchief from the water basin and started to idly chat with each other.
”Yes, they're all here.” Jin Se reached out to take the handkerchief that Qi Yue passed over, but just as she was about to touch the handkerchief, Qi Yue suddenly retracted his hand, ”Let me help you.”
The handkerchief in Qi Yue's hand obediently circled around, causing Jin Se to feel that the place that was sticky just now was now clean and refreshing.
”Go get another one.”
Qi Yue looked at the coolness on Jin Se's hands that lusted over, and as a result, he wet the handkerchief. He still wanted to wipe Jin Se's hands, but Jin Se rejected him, ”I'll do it myself, don't trouble Second Elder Brother anymore.”
