Chapter 1436 She Looks Down on the Person I Love
"The Zhou family is complicated and not suitable for your family."
Jiang Wan knew about the Chu family's situation. Old Chu was now living in Jiuzhou in retirement.
There are almost no male members of the Chu family who can cause trouble, and Chu Ge is just muddling along.
They are a noble family and do not participate in any disputes. It would be bad if they were involved with the Zhou family.
"Thank you for the reminder, sister-in-law."
Chu Qi suddenly realized what was going on and no longer felt sorry, and started to arrange other things.
But Mrs. Chu did not leave. When Chu Qi returned to the yard, she was still waiting for her.
"Mom, why haven't you gone home yet?"
Chu Qi was thinking about her children and didn't expect her mother was still alive.
"Your father is haunted by that vixen every day. He won't be able to see me even if I go back."
Mrs. Chu was in poor health, but Chu Qi never cared about such matters.
After all, she was the one who brought her cousin to her door personally, so no matter how sad her mother was, Chu Qi would not comfort her.
Sure enough, seeing that she didn't speak, Mrs. Chu knew that she was still resenting her, so she awkwardly changed the subject.
"There are so many girls here today, which one do you like?
I think the youngest daughter of Prime Minister Xiao is good. She is Xiao Yan's biological sister. In the future, your brother can become the emperor's brother-in-law."
Mrs. Chu had high standards, and Chu Qi was speechless, “Our Chu family has never participated in party disputes.
If Ge'er and the emperor were brothers-in-law, it would be legitimate for the queen to make him the crown prince after she gave birth to a legitimate son.
But the Chu family is a staunch supporter of the Queen, so I think it’s still not appropriate.”
"What's inappropriate? After your grandfather retired, who would look up to our Chu family?"
Mrs. Chu said angrily: "Your father is a loser.
You and your wife stay in Jiuzhou all year round, so we can't count on you. If Ge'er can establish a relationship with the Xiao family.
It will be good for your brother's career. The way your grandfather insisted is outdated."
"I'll ask Ge'er for his opinion."
Chu Qi didn't want to argue with Mrs. Chu, "Mom, you should go back and rest early.
Mianmian asked me to go and see the children. "
"What are you so particular about, little girl?"
Mrs. Chu curled her lips and met Chu Qi's cold eyes. In the end, she didn't say much, but turned and left.
Even the maids in the mansion felt sorry for Chu Qi, but no one dared to say it to her face.
Chu Qi adjusted his mood before returning to the room. Song Jiuchi had just coaxed the two children to sleep, and he made a hushing gesture.
"Weren't you clamoring for me just now? How come you fell asleep so soon?"
Chu Qi walked over quickly and saw Mianmian sleeping soundly in Song Jiuchi's arms.
This heartless girl is quite clingy to her father.
"My wife is tired. I'll let them go to bed early."
Song Jiuchi put the child on the bed, then gently massaged Chu Qi's shoulders.
"Are you worried about your mother-in-law again?"
Frankly speaking, Song Jiuchi didn't like Mrs. Chu very much, but she was his wife's mother after all.
There were many things he couldn't say, so he could only comfort his wife more.
"Well, she sees the youngest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion as not worthy of Ge'er."
Chu Qi didn't say it so directly in front of Mrs. Chu just now.
"The Prime Minister's Mansion doesn't even look down on Ge'er."
"That's not what I meant."
Song Jiuchi didn't want to get involved in these things, so he just gave her a gentle massage.
"Calm down, my lady. I'll find a chance to ask Ge'er later. I have to ask for his opinion, right?"
“That’s true.”
Chu Qi couldn't say anything about this, but he was so troubled by the headache that he almost couldn't sleep.
Jiang Wan and the others naturally didn't know that the Queen's coronation ceremony was about to begin.
Jiang Wan was arranging people to prepare clothes for the family to wear that day.
Even Xiaoshu and Xinxin have to go, and they have to dress decently.
"Sister-in-law, let's go out for a walk."
Song Jiuli felt bored staying at home, even though her clothes and jewelry were all custom-made.
But she still wanted to go out for a walk.
Facing the expectant eyes of the two children, Jiang Wan reluctantly agreed, "Okay, go ask the Second Madam."
Jiang Wan asked Yin Qiao to ask Chu Qi, and soon Chu Qi also came with the two children.
"Jinyu can't stay idle at home, so she wants to go out and play, so I just take her with me."
The group left the palace and went to Nishang Pavilion together.
When the distinguished guest arrived, the headmistress of Nishang Pavilion received him personally, and Song Jiuli kept trying on clothes.
At this moment, Jiang Wan's eyes paused and she asked Chu Qi.
"Qiqi, is that Chu Ge?"
She seemed to have just seen Chu Ge's figure entering the restaurant in front.
Chu Qi reacted a little slowly. She only saw Chu Ge's back and frowned slightly.
"It seems so."
"Maybe I'm having a drink with friends."
Seeing that Chu Qi was a little worried, Jiang Wan suddenly felt a little regretful that she should not have reminded Chu Qi just now.
Maybe Chu Ge was just simply socializing with friends.
"I seemed to have seen a woman just now."
Chu Qi thought more deeply, "Could it be that he already has a girl he likes?"
“It’s not impossible.”
Jiang Wan thought that it was normal for a boy of Chu Ge's age to have a girl he liked.
"Sister-in-law, I'll go over and take a look."
Chu Qi couldn't wait any longer, so he told his servants to look after the children and went across the street.
After a while, Chu Qi came back first. Seeing that she didn't look well, Jiang Wan became curious.
"What's going on?"
"I haven't figured out the details yet. Ge'er said he'll explain it later."
But Chu Qi’s intuition was not very good, because his brother’s eyes were too frightened.
It was as if she had discovered a huge secret.
Because of this, Chu Qi lost the desire to continue shopping, so Song Jiuli simply suggested going to a place where it’s warm in winter and cool in summer.
While making hot milk tea, the children played on one side while Jiang Wan and the others sat down to rest and chat.
Chu Qi was absent-minded and sent people to invite Chu Ge several times.
Song Jiuli comforted her, "Second sister-in-law, your brother is not young anymore.
He should have his own plans for what he does, so don't worry too much."
"yes."
Jiang Wan also persuaded Chu Qi, and Chu Qi felt a little relieved, but she was still a little worried.
Fortunately, Chu Ge still remembered her as his sister and came to explain in person.
But he didn't expect Jiang Wan and Song Jiuli were also there, and he was a little panicked for a moment.
"Meet the princess, Madam Sheng."
"Since you are Qiqi's younger brother, you should treat us as your sisters."
Jiang Wan smiled gently, and Chu Ge relaxed a little. Chu Qi went straight to the point.
"What's going on? Ge'er, don't hide it from me!"
"elder sister."
Chu Ge looked at Jiang Wan and Song Jiuli with some hesitation. Chu Qi said directly:
"We are all family, there is nothing they can't know."
"Just as you saw, sister, I have a lover."
Chu Ge lowered his head, prepared to face Chu Qi's anger.
"You have a sweetheart and you promised us to find you a girl? Do your parents know?"
Chu Qi was really angry. If she had known that he had someone he liked, she wouldn't have gone through so much trouble.
She felt like she was being tricked.
Jiang Wan roughly guessed the reason. As expected, Chu Ge said dejectedly:
"Mother knows, but she doesn't like the person I like."
