Upon hearing this, Empress Cao glanced at Si Jinxing, who remained calm beside her, and whispered:
"It sounds like it's Lao Wu. What does he want from you?"
Si Jinxing knew that it was probably about the Mid-Autumn Festival.
She sighed and explained:
"Ye Wan'er loves Qi Moli, so she will definitely find ways to find trouble with me. There is someone around who can be used, so why not use him? Look, isn't he here?"
Empress Cao naturally knew about Ye Wan'er's affairs and nodded.
"Old Five has a bad temper and is difficult to talk to. How about I come forward and drive him away?"
Si Jinxing shook her head, pointed behind her, and said with a smile, "Isn't Qi Moli following not far behind?"
Empress Cao curved her lips into a smile and said, "You little girl!"
Qi Nanche waited outside the carriage for a while, but no one got out. He immediately became furious and said:
"What? The county lady doesn't dare to come down? Then I will ask you here!
Did you do that? Did you plot against me and Ye Wan'er just for that girl from the Lei family?
However, the person in the car refused to say a word, and she did not get off the car, while more and more people gathered on the street to watch the excitement.
Qi Nanche felt humiliated and furious, and shouted frantically:
"This king is magnanimous and will not argue with women. If you kneel down and apologize to me in the street, I will forgive you! Otherwise..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a lazy and gloomy male voice from behind:
"Otherwise, what are you going to do?"
Just a few words scared Qi Nanche so much that he swallowed his saliva.
He turned his head and saw a carriage made entirely of red sandalwood and heavily carved parked not far away. Wasn't it his ninth uncle's carriage?
When he stopped Si Jinxing's carriage just now, he clearly did not see the carriage!
Qi Nanche wiped the sweat from his forehead. It’s autumn now, why is it still so hot!
He suppressed the anger on his face, walked quickly to Qi Moli's carriage, bowed and said:
"Nephew greets Uncle Nine. I didn't know he was here, so I came to greet him from afar. I hope Uncle Nine will forgive me."
Qi Moli opened the curtains, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said:
"If I heard correctly, you were planning to make my princess kneel down before you in the street?"
Qi Nanche stood with his hands down, put on a fake smile, and said:
"It's all a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. My nephew was deceived, so...that's why he did something foolish. I beg for your forgiveness, uncle."
After he finished speaking, he heard the man in the carriage snort coldly and say:
"In that case, go kneel down before your Ninth Aunt's carriage and offer your apologies. She is a kind person and will certainly not hold it against you!"
Qi Nanche's smile froze when he heard this, and he said:
"Uncle, this street is crowded with people. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for a prince like me to kneel down and apologize."
Qi Moli lowered the curtains, stopped looking at him, and snorted coldly:
"What's wrong with that? Even if you haven't done anything wrong, it's still okay to greet your elders and kneel down to kowtow! Go ahead!"
The lazy and indifferent words made Qi Nanche feel a chill in his feet.
He walked back to Si Jinxing's carriage with stiff legs, knelt down with a cold face, and said:
"I was deceived and said something wrong just now. I beg for your forgiveness, my lady."
Queen Cao listened to everything the two said. When she heard Qi Nanche's voice, she smiled and covered her lips with her hands. She couldn't help but envy the little girl beside her.
What a woman longs for most is her husband's wholehearted love for her.
She turned her eyes and saw that the little girl still refused to say a word. Did she want Qi Nanche to beg her again?
This character of not wanting to suffer any loss is exactly the same as that kid Qi Moli!
More and more people gathered on the street to watch. Someone recognized that it was Prince Jing and casually mentioned it. Soon, everyone knew it.
Qi Nanche listened to the whispers in the crowd, his face dark and frightening.
He straightened his back and said again, "Please forgive me, Auntie!"
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing responded:
"How old are you? Do you still believe what others say?
Since you asked, I'll tell you that this matter has nothing to do with me.
If Prince Jing doesn't believe it, you can check it out again. There will always be some clues to find!"
Qi Nanche watched the three carriages pass by him before he stood up. He looked around and shouted angrily:
"What are you looking at? Get out of here!"
In the third carriage were Si Junshan and his two siblings, Si Jinyi and Si Jinheng.
Si Jinheng was young, but he saw it clearly and said, "That Ninth Prince is really good to my second sister."
Si Jinyi beside him also nodded repeatedly and said, "Now no one will bully my second sister!"
Si Junshan naturally became more and more satisfied with Qi Moli. It was great to have someone protecting her like this!
He lowered his head to look at his youngest son beside him, and couldn't help thinking about what Si Jinxing had said before:
"If there is anyone in this mansion who can make me feel the love of family, it is Aunt Wen's two children."
Now seeing these two children, it seems they are really close to her.
Si Junshan was thinking that he would find a school for each of the two children.
Read more books, and you will understand more truths, so you won't end up like him...
The carriage traveled for another cup of tea and arrived at Yaxu Lao, located at the most prosperous intersection of Longxing Street.
"Xing'er is really capable. She can run such a prosperous shop. She is not inferior to men at all!" Queen Cao looked at the people coming and going in the shop and smelled a strange fragrance. She felt very comfortable and said with a smile:
"Speaking of which, it's actually a bargain for that brat Qi Moli!"
This was also Si Junshan's first time visiting Si Jinxing's restaurant. He was very happy to see that the first floor was already full of diners even before dinner time.
With the ability to manage a shop, when she marries into the palace, no one will dare to underestimate their daughter!
Si Jinxing had reserved a private room for herself on the second floor, so they didn't have to wait for a seat.
Several people who were eating hotpot for the first time were attracted by the novel food and ate it with relish.
Queen Cao looked at the boiling thick soup and her appetite grew. It had been a long time since she had such an appetite as today!
Si Jinyi and Si Jinheng couldn't stop eating and said it was even more delicious than the barbecue skewers they had last time!
Si Jinxing was busy helping them cook the meat and vegetables and handing them tissues.
Si Junshan took a bite of the mutton hotpot in his mouth, which was soft, tender and delicious. He looked at the scene in front of him and felt his eyes sore. She has never been a heartless child!
Qi Moli felt that his wife was really amazing. Her little head was full of all kinds of incredible ideas. She could actually think of such a way to eat!
After eating hot pot, Queen Cao returned to the palace contentedly. Qi Moli also left with her, saying that he had official business to attend to.
Si Jinxing and the Si family returned to the general's mansion.
She walked beside Si Junshan, and suddenly stopped, looked in the direction of Lihua Garden, and said:
"I want to go see her."
