Chapter 030: First Visit to the Qi Family

Occasionally you would meet people on the road. It is impossible not to have servants in such a big house.

Whenever they met someone, the other party would greet them respectfully, "Young Master" or "Young Madam", which made Qi Luo feel very complicated.

There's no way. An orphan like her who comes from a grassroots background is somewhat unaccustomed to such a scene. I can only sigh that this is worthy of being a novel world, and rich people are all rich to this extent.

Avenues, stone paths, winding corridors...

Anyway, from the time he entered the door until now, Qi Luo has been following Qi Wuyu for about twenty minutes and has not yet reached their yard.

"Emperor Qi, there is something I don't understand."

Qi Wuyu had been walking parallel to her. Hearing this, he turned his head to look at her and said, "Ask."

"Your family... our family is so rich. After we get married, we should move out. Logically, our wedding house should be a large manor surrounded by servants, or at least a villa. Why is our wedding house just an apartment? Although that apartment is not bad, the community infrastructure is complete and the privacy is good, and the apartment is not small, but as such a rich person, isn't it a bit inconsistent with our status as rich people to have a small apartment as our wedding house?"

She blinked and looked directly into Qi Wuyu's eyes, her expression very sincere.

Qi Wuyu stared at her for a long time without saying anything, as if he was speechless to her.

"It's not like we don't have other properties under our names. It was your idea to set up the wedding house there."

Qi Luo: “???”

What did the original owner mean?

Was the original owner so simple?

"Oh, I forgot. You lost your memory and you don't remember anything."

“…”Qi Luo was speechless.

"Moving is troublesome. If you don't like living in this apartment and want to move, wait until later." He looked her up and down, "At least wait until you recover your memory. If you recover your memory and want to move back, it will be a waste of time."

Qi Luo didn't want to say anything more to him!

You’re such a slut!

He had a serious face and spoke in a normal tone, but somehow she could hear a hint of "naughtiness" in his voice.

The Qi family mansion looks like one that only a large and established family can own. The courtyards where the eldest young master and his wife live have three entrances.

As soon as I walked to the gate of the courtyard, someone came to greet me: "Master, Madam."

They were a couple in their fifties, both with kind faces.

"This is Qi Minghua and Meng Yulan. They are a married couple and have taken care of me since I was a child. Later, I got a yard to live on my own, and they moved in with me. They are distant relatives of the Qi family. According to seniority, we have to call them cousins." Qi Wuyu and Qi Luo introduced the two.

The two of them obviously already knew that Qi Luo had lost his memory.

Meng Yulan looked at her lovingly: "The eldest young lady has suffered."

Qi Luo greeted them: "Uncle, aunt." Then he smiled and told Meng Yulan that she was fine, saying that she only had minor injuries.

After some care and comfort, Qi Luo looked up at the plaque on the gate of the courtyard. On the plaque were inscribed the three words "Wenyanyuan".

"Wenyan means a person with literary talent and virtue. The person who named this courtyard must have placed high hopes on the people living here. Yu means literature; Yu also describes people with elegant tastes, elegant conversation, literary talent, and good upbringing. Emperor Qi, the person who named you must have placed high hopes on you as well."

"Perhaps you have forgotten that my full name is Qi Wuyu, and there is a 'Wu' before the 'Yu'."

Qi Luo was stunned. She really forgot about this.

"彧" is a good character, but if you add a "无" in front of it...

She was just hesitating whether to apologize when Qi Wuyu's voice rang out again: "My name was chosen by my grandfather, but 'Wu' is a generational character. No matter how I'm named, it must contain the character 'Wu'. In other words, when the elders named me, they really went for the good meaning of the character 'Yu'."

Qi Luo: “…………”

Well, she was overthinking it. When she heard him say that his grandfather gave him his name, she wondered if his grandfather didn't like him.

"The courtyard was named by my grandmother, and the words on the plaque were also proposed by her. My grandmother has passed away almost ten years ago." He looked up at the words on the plaque. Although he did not look sad, there was an inexplicable sense of sadness lingering around him.

Qi Luo stared at him for a few seconds and pretended to complain: "Qi Yingdi, did you forget to tell me about your family members? You took me back to your house without telling me anything. I don't know anyone I meet. I will be very embarrassed then."

Qi Wuyu lowered his eyes and looked at her.

"...Oh, it's not your house, it's our house." It's not a big deal, why do you keep holding on to it.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? Just tell people that you have amnesia and don't remember anything. No one will ask whether a person with amnesia remembers others or not."

"That being said, you should also briefly tell me about your family...the composition of our family." Isn't this the normal procedure?

"No need. I said I'd have to introduce you to him when we meet. Why not wait until we meet in person?"

“……”No problem!

Qi Luo gave him a thumbs up.

After entering the house, Qi Wuyu probably had something to say to his uncle Qi Minghua, so he asked his aunt Meng Yulan to take Qi Luo to the master bedroom to change clothes.

Qi Luo did not change clothes immediately. She had just got off the plane and was a little tired, so she wanted to take a shower first. During this time, her aunt wanted to get her some hot water, but she refused.

When she came out of the shower, her aunt was still waiting outside and gave her a custom-made cheongsam to change into.

No one knew when the cheongsam was custom-made. Qi Luo had no idea about it beforehand, and no one came to her to measure her size.

The cousin's aunt was an all-rounder. After changing clothes, she asked Qi Luo to sit in front of the dressing table, took out a white jade hairpin from her dressing table, fixed Qi Luo's hair, and helped Qi Luo put on makeup.

Qi Luo couldn't wait until she met people and then wait for Qi Wu Yu to introduce them one by one as Qi Wu Yu said. The Qi family was a completely unfamiliar environment to her, and she didn't like knowing nothing in an unfamiliar environment.

While her aunt was dressing her, she quietly asked her something.

It was learned that all the members of the main branch of the Qi family lived in the old house, and this main family was not just the branch that Qi Wuyu's grandfather belonged to. In addition to this branch, there are two other branches. According to seniority, the old men of the two branches, Qi Wuyu, should call them second grandfather and third grandfather respectively.

The second grandfather has passed away, and only the third grandfather is left.

Third Grandpa is also the protagonist of today's birthday banquet.

My second grandfather's branch mainly develops abroad and rarely comes back once a year; my third grandfather's branch is relatively small. My third grandfather has only one son, and his son only gave him one grandson.

The only grandson of the third grandfather is two years younger than Qi Wuyu and ranks fifth in the Qi family.

My cousin's aunt said that the eldest and fifth young masters had the best relationship. As for the third and fourth young masters from my second grandfather's branch, they lived abroad all year round and rarely came back.

In addition, the second young master and the eldest young lady of the Qi family are both born to Qi Wuyu's second uncle.

Qi Luo also found out from his aunt that Qi Wuyu has a younger sister...

The old people said that people cannot call upon souls, not even in their minds. As soon as she thought of her biological sister Qi Wu Yu, the soul appeared.

There was a knock on the door and someone poked his head in. Qi Luo turned around and she jumped out in surprise: "Sister-in-law!"
