Chapter 288 Helian Shiliu Mansion

She still remembered that Qin Shu said that no matter what Anyueya said to her, she would tell Xiaoxixi!

"Mother, mother!"

[Oh, what did Anyueya say to mother? Tell Xiaoxixi quickly. Xiaoxixi really wants to know! ]

Qin Xixi definitely couldn't say such a long string of words fluently. She could only say the word "mother" at most.

This gave Qin Shu a chance to take advantage of the situation. She didn't want to deceive Xiaoxixi, nor did she want to tell Xiaoxixi about this matter and make her worry.

Qin Shu pretended not to hear Xixi's inner voice, picked up Xiaoxixi and rubbed her head.

"Be good, Xiaoxixi, mother will take you home to find your brother now."

Qin Xixi shook her head anxiously.

[No, Xiao Xixi didn’t mean that. Xiao Xixi wants to know what mother said to Anyueya just now!]

Qin Shu turned around and chatted with the princess, pretending that she didn’t hear anything. Seeing her evasive expression, the princess knew that she didn’t want to tell Xiao Xixi what they had just talked about. The princess

understood and knew that this matter was indeed a major matter concerning Xixi, so she helped Qin Shu to smooth things over.

"Today's palace banquet was really full of twists and turns. Thank you for your hard work. Now go back home to celebrate New Year's Eve!"

[No way, mother and aunt Princess forgot to tell me this! Ah, Xixi really wants to know.]

Qin Shu selectively ignored Xiao Xixi's complaints in her heart and said goodbye to the princess.

"Then we will go back home first. You, Lord Fu, and Fu Jianning should also have a good New Year. I wish you all a happy New Year in advance!"

The princess nodded with a smile.

"You too, come to my house to play when you are free. I am alone, Fu Qian is not at home all year round, and Fu Jianning is also a taciturn person, very boring!"

Qin Shu then took little Xixi back home. Xixi was sulking all the way, and Qin Shu had no choice but to wait until little Xixi calmed down. However, as soon as she got off the carriage, little Xixi saw Helian Shi and immediately forgot about what she was angry about.

[Wow, it turned out to be General Helian. My brothers are so quick to do things! Xixi can be an assist again, yeah! ]

Children's emotions come and go quickly. Qin Shu also saw Helian Shi standing at the door, frowning slightly, and feeling somewhat helpless.

Well, she still had to thank Helian Shi for diverting Xiao Xixi's thoughts, otherwise, Xixi might have kept asking questions.

"General Helian...why is he here?"

Qin Shu asked tentatively. But she already had the answer in her mind, it must be these little bastards at home who made the decision to invite General Helian.

As she expected, the second child looked at the love letter with a guilty conscience and explained.

"General Helian once told me that he was spending the New Year alone in the capital. The general helped me so much on the battlefield, and I really couldn't bear to let the general spend the New Year alone, so I took the initiative to call the general over."

The second brother spoke carefully, implying that if Qin Shu didn't agree to let Helian Shi spend the New Year in the mansion, it would seem that she didn't care about loyalty and gratitude.

Qin Qixuan, who was standing by, couldn't help but secretly praise the second brother's words in his heart.

Only the second brother could say such words inadvertently. Sure enough, letting the second brother negotiate with their mother was the right choice.

At this time, Helian Shi was also a little embarrassed.

However, what he said was sincere, and there was no unintentional threat like the second brother's.

"Will it cause trouble to the head of the Qin family? Actually, I feel a little disturbed. If the head of the Qin family doesn't like me to stay here for the New Year, I will leave immediately."

Helian Shi felt a little uncomfortable, afraid that Qin Shu's family would not have a good New Year because of him.

Qin Shu sighed. Helian Shi was alone in the capital to celebrate the New Year. It was reasonable that since he had come to the Qin Mansion, Qin Shu should treat him well, at least so that he could have a good New Year. How could she drive him out of the Qin Mansion?

"General Helian has helped the second brother so much. If you don't mind, stay in the mansion and celebrate the New Year together."

Helian Shi's expression was very surprised. Qin Qixuan and the second brother also breathed a sigh of relief, and Xiao Xixi began to celebrate in her heart.

Qin Shu could not help but feel speechless. In the eyes of her children, was she such a heartless person?

"Why didn't I see Fang Qinghong? Didn't I ask him to come to our house for the New Year?"

Helian Shi frowned when he heard the name.

Xiao Si and the others were also a little angry when they heard Qin Shu ask about Fang Qinghong.

Xiao Si was always the most jealous and said whatever he wanted. He was also the one who hated Fang Qinghong the most, so he immediately spoke out angrily.

"That Fang Qinghong, he fell asleep as soon as he came to the mansion. I really don't know what kind of etiquette this is!"

Qin Qixuan and the third child touched their noses at the same time with a guilty conscience, but they were smart and said nothing, letting the misunderstanding continue.

However, before leaving, Qin Shu asked Qin Qixuan to treat Fang Qinghong well, so he still said a few more words.

"Well... I think Boss Fang is just too tired, so he rested in the guest room as soon as he arrived at the mansion."

Although he said so, compared with Helian Shi who helped with the work as soon as he arrived, Fang Qinghong's performance was really poor.

"How could it be? What can he do to be so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he arrived at the mansion."

Qin Shu thought this was a bit abnormal.

"Is he sick? Otherwise, let's go see him together." After

Qin Shu finished speaking, she was about to go to the guest room.

Xiao Xixi saw at a glance that the eldest brother and the third brother were a little uncomfortable.

And her nose was very sharp. She could also smell a faint smell of drugs on the hands of the third brother and the fifth brother.

Ordinary people cannot smell this kind of smell. Only people like Xiao Xixi and Xiao Wu, who have a particularly sensitive sense of smell, can smell it. And these doses will not cause anyone to fall into a coma, so Qin Shu did not notice it.

Xiao Xixi guessed that it must be several brothers who joined forces to daze Fang Qinghong to prevent them from seeing it. However, the fourth brother should not know about this. He is usually so impulsive. The eldest brother should not tell him because he is afraid that the fourth brother will let it slip.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of the brothers, Xiao Xixi mercifully decided to save them.

Xixi reluctantly pulled Qin Shu's sleeve.

"Fireworks!"

She looked like she really wanted to see the fireworks and didn't want to waste time going to the guest room.

[The fireworks are about to start, can't we go watch the fireworks first and let Fang Qinghong fall asleep in the guest room first? ]

Qin Shu was originally afraid that Xiao Xixi would think about what happened just now. Now when she heard Xiao Xixi mention fireworks, Qin Shu was a little flustered and reluctantly agreed to the request to watch the fireworks first.
