Chapter 276 Chapter 276 Insolent!
I still remember that when seventeen-year-old Qin Feiyu returned to Beijing for the first time with his father, countless young masters from officials and wealthy families in the capital were vying to see this young man from the general's family whom they had only heard of but never seen.
Xiao Hengzhi was naturally curious as well, and had been waiting at the city gate early. He had thought that Qin Feiyu, a boy, would be like the other boys, and would definitely take a carriage for the long journey. However, he never expected that the boy would ride a tall horse. Although he looked tired, his narrow black eyes were unexpectedly energetic, and they were bright and lively, and he glanced left and right from time to time.
The first time Xiao Hengzhi saw Qin Feiyu, his first impression was that this young man from the general's family looked good, but a little silly. He must have been as strong and tough as a man when he was a child.
Thinking of this, Xiao Hengzhi couldn't help but feel amused. He folded his folding fan and smiled with his eyes curved.
When he heard a soft shout, he looked over subconsciously, only to see that Qin Feiyu had discovered him at some point. He seemed to be stupid, staring at him blankly with his eyes wide and round. It was not until Qin's father called him that Qin Feiyu turned his head and looked away like a child who had done something wrong, blushing, but his eyes kept falling in his direction from time to time.
With just one glance, Xiao Hengzhi knew that Qin Feiyu had been bewitched by his face.
As expected, during the time Qin Feiyu was in Beijing, he would occasionally run into him unexpectedly, or attend a banquet, and the other party would "inadvertently" look in his direction. After being caught, Qin Feiyu would look away guiltily, and after a while he would secretly and cautiously look at him again. Finally, perhaps he could no longer bear it, and this man shamelessly chased him for several blocks, and he couldn't get rid of him.
Qin Feiyu thought he had hidden his little thoughts very well, but in Xiao Hengzhi's eyes, it was obvious. After many encounters and every time he was caught, his face turned red, it was hard for Xiao Hengzhi not to know what the other person was thinking.
Whenever Xiao Hengzhi asked him what he was doing, Qin Feiyu always looked shy and didn't dare to look at people. He stood in front of him hesitantly, not saying a word for a long time, but followed him closely.
Thinking of the past, Xiao Hengzhi leaned over as if he had eaten honey, almost touching his nose with Qin Feiyu's. "More than ten years ago, when you just returned to Beijing, you set your eyes on me. I could see that you fell in love with me at first sight. Later, you chased me and gave me a lot of things. Really, if it were anyone else, you would be so persistent and annoyed. I am the only one who thinks you are so stupid. Even the way you chase people is so stupid, but it makes people reluctant to refuse. If I don't agree to you, I'm afraid you will be a bachelor in this life. It's a pity that back then... Now more than ten years have passed, and you are still so stupid. I really can't bear to let go. Qin Feiyu, we are already in our thirties. How many more decades can we waste in our lives? I want to be with you for the rest of my life. I want to marry you. Do you agree?"
Qin Feiyu was already dumbfounded, his brain instantly shut down, he couldn't speak for a long time, only tears were streaming down his face. After a while, he hurriedly grabbed Qin Feiyu's hand, nodded vigorously, his eyes couldn't be more serious, and kept responding, "Hmmmm..."
Looking at the person who kept crying, Xiao Hengzhi said in a lazy voice with a hint of teasing: "Stop humming and speaking. Do you agree or not? If you don't speak, I don't understand what your 'hmm' means."
"Promise, I promise, I want to be with you, I want you to marry me."
Xiao Hengzhi looked at him and asked firmly, "Are you serious? You won't regret it?"
"Yes, seriously, no regrets, you are my lifelong love, I want to marry you!"
"Okay, you marry me and I marry you. It's a deal, and we can't go back on our word."
"Okay. No regrets." Qin Feiyu was overjoyed. He put his arms around Xiao Hengzhi's waist, buried his head in his chest, rubbed and sucked hard, and kept calling Xiao Hengzhi's name: "Hengzhi, Hengzhi..."
"I'm here!" Xiao Hengzhi pulled Qin Feiyu into his arms. Thinking that the person he had been thinking about for more than ten years was now in his arms, and that Qin Feiyu was pregnant with their child, everything seemed like a dream to Xiao Hengzhi, so unreal. "Can I touch him?"
"Yes, but he is only two months old now, still too small." Even if I touched him, I couldn't feel anything. I could only feel a layer of soft flesh on his belly.
But Xiao Hengzhi still couldn't let go of her, and even pinched her white belly.
Xiao Hengzhi pinched Qin Feiyu's soft flesh and thought to himself, no wonder Qin Feiyu's belly felt much softer when I touched it last night, it turns out she is pregnant.
He had tormented Qin Feiyu for half the night last night. If it were any other brother, he would have seen blood long ago. Xiao Heng was very worried. "You should have a good rest. Leave the rest to me. I will handle the Right Prime Minister's matter. Just rest well."
Xiao Hengzhi has been indulging in the pleasures of life these days and hasn't attended court for a few days. That old bastard is making trouble again. He even dares to say that his child is a bastard and that his husband is a playboy. No matter how nice his words are, the implications of his words are nothing more than this. Xiao Hengzhi hugged Qin Feiyu and licked his back teeth, intending to skin him alive.
It seems that he has been silent for too long in the past decade or so, so that some people have forgotten how difficult it is to mess with him.
And there was that idiot Fu Qingxu. Without me, his fighting ability was really impressive. Not only could he not defeat the old bastard You Xiang who ate for free, he was almost reported by the censor for helping his relatives instead of helping others.
The people who submitted the most memorials to report others must have been the censors, because "reporting on rumors" was what they did.
However, at the moment, Xiao Hengzhi still has another matter that needs to be confirmed. It will not be too late to deal with other matters later.
When Xiao Hengzhi sneaked into Xiao Qin's house, Xu Yunfan woke up. After finding out that the person was Xiao Heng, he put away the gun and went back to his room to continue sleeping.
Just as I had just laid down and was about to fall asleep, the door creaked.
Xu Yunfan knew who the person was without even looking. He turned over and continued sleeping with his back facing outwards.
"Hurry up and get up, I know you haven't slept yet."
Xu Yunfan scratched his butt, said nothing, and continued to pretend to sleep.
If anyone else had climbed over the wall and entered his house in the middle of the night, they would have been shot. The only reason Xiao Heng was able to survive was because the other party was his father-in-law.
You can't shoot your father-in-law, but you can protest silently.
Otherwise, Xiao Hengzhi wouldn't know that he also gets grumpy when he wakes up.
Seeing that the person on the bed was pretending to be deaf and dumb, Xiao Hengzhi was so angry that he laughed. He walked forward and slapped Xu Yunfan on the butt. Xu Yunfan whimpered in pain and climbed up immediately.
Xiao Hengzhi asked: "How is it? Is your butt still itchy?"
"Father-in-law, why are you still hitting people? When Run Ge'er comes back, he will be heartbroken."
Xu Yunfan rubbed his buttocks and said, "Father-in-law, I am no longer the same person I used to be. Don't touch me in the future, or you will regret it. There is a huge gap between our status. If you really offend me, you won't want to know the consequences."
Xiao Hengzhi was amused. "A huge disparity in status? I think you are quite self-aware. Then you have to curry favor with me."
"Father-in-law, you still don't understand what I mean? Think about it yourself, who is the most favored in this family now? Besides my father-in-law Qin, who do you love the most? And who does the other party like the most?"
"Father-in-law, if you think things through carefully, you won't make such jokes. I'm not the same person I used to be. I'm incredibly strong now. I'm a man at the top of the food chain, and you... you can decide for yourself whether to say it or not."
After figuring out the situation, Xiao Hengzhi suddenly felt depressed again. This brother of his was really like his father, who always put the man he loved at the top of his heart and pampered him.
"You little brat, why are you showing off? You let your husband pamper you when you're out. Aren't you ashamed?"
"Why are you embarrassed? This shows that I'm capable. My husband loves to pamper me. Only those who don't have husbands to pamper me will be jealous of me."
There is really nothing wrong with this.
Xiao Hengzhi fell silent. He could not beat Xu Yunfan in bickering. This man was a man who could make hundreds of teachers unable to raise their heads.
"I won't waste my time on these nonsense. Sit still. You've checked your father's health. Is he physically capable of giving birth to a child? Tell the truth, and don't hide anything."
Qin Feiyu is already in his thirties. Compared with other guys who get pregnant and have children at the age of seventeen or eighteen, he is considered an older man.
Xiao Hengzhi had also seen some women who suddenly became pregnant in middle age. Many of them became deficient in qi and blood after giving birth, and their health became poor. Some even lost two lives. How could Xiao Hengzhi be at ease?
Xu Yunfan: "Dad is in good health. Just be careful in the future. It won't be a big problem."
Since Xu Yunfan said so, Xiao Hengzhi felt relieved. Xu Yunfan did have some real skills. Look, the medicine he prescribed for him, although not to say that it cured the disease immediately, at least now he is much better than before. Three or four times a night is not a problem. Other doctors don't have this ability. "That's good, then I can rest assured. Yunfan, I'll trouble you to take good care of your father in the future."
"Come here." Xiao Hengzhi waved to Xu Yunfan, asking him to come closer. He took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and handed it to him. "Here, this is what I've saved over the years. It's a bargain for you, kid. Take it. Consider it a meeting gift. In the future, you have to treat my Run'er well, otherwise I'll skin you alive."
Because Xiao Hengzhi was poisoned in recent years, he could not go to the army, so he had to find other ways to contribute. Part of the money he earned from business was spent elsewhere.
Xiao Hengzhi also knew that he wanted to give this money to Xu Yunfan. Xu Yunfan was smart and had many ways to make money, but he was just short of the start-up capital. Su Yan said that Qin Run had invested a lot of money in the Food City, and the couple was now heavily in debt. As a father, Xiao Hengzhi naturally had to help out.
"There are still a few hundred taels left. Please help me keep them. Your father-in-law will be married soon, and it's not easy to hide his private money. Please help me take some first. I will ask you for more when I need it in the future."
"Father-in-law, this isn't right. I'm a good man. I've handed over all the money I earned. If Run Ge'er knew I had this huge sum of money, he'd be mad at me."
"Can you be tougher, kid? Let's hide it secretly. If you don't say anything and I don't say anything, who will know? People say we are half brother and half son-in-law. I treat you as my own son, and you won't help me with this little favor?"
Xu Yunfan: “…”
This old fox is so cunning. When he is really discovered, he will deny it to death and won't be able to explain himself.
"Father-in-law, this is not how you help. You should go back quickly. It's the middle of the night and you, a father-in-law, are in your brother-in-law's room. It won't look good if it gets out." Xu Yunfan insisted on not taking it.
"It's not good to listen to your head."
Xiao Hengzhi walked away angrily.
…
According to custom, boys and girls should prepare their own wedding clothes, but Xu Yunfan said that he would prepare the wedding clothes, and Qin Run only needed to wait for her marriage peacefully, and he didn't need to worry about anything else.
Grandma Xiao paced around the room, wondering what kind of dowry she should give to Qin Run.
This grandson did not grow up with them and was about to get married before he could recognize his ancestors. They were unable to raise him and it would be difficult for them to take care of him in the future. Grandma Xiao just wanted to make up for it as much as possible.
Tonight, they suddenly learned that Qin Feiyu was pregnant. How could Grandma Xiao and Grandpa Xiao sit still? They insisted on going to visit Qin Feiyu. Otherwise, knowing that their son was pregnant, the two old people would not even show up and not express any expression. It was neither reasonable nor moral.
Grandma Xiao had already made arrangements for a good shop nearby. She was packing up the dowry she had brought into the Xiao Mansion in her early years, thinking about which ones to give to Qin Feiyu. At this time, Xiao Hengzhi came over in a hurry, and his voice came before he even arrived, "Mother."
"Oh, what are you doing? You scared me." Old Madam Xiao was quick-witted and quick-handed, and quickly hid several land deeds in her sleeves.
"Mom, do you still care about the Su family's affairs?" Xiao Hengzhi asked while suppressing his anger.
Hearing that his uncle, Su Yunfei's father, came yesterday, Xiao Hengzhi didn't want his mother to be soft-hearted and do something stupid.
Grandma Xiao: "What's wrong? Who from the Su family has offended you again?"
"It's Shen Yunfei." Xiao Hengzhi gritted his teeth, the veins on the back of his hands bulging with anger. "It's all that bitch, mother. All the letters that Feiyu wrote to me, and the letters I wrote to him, were taken away by Shen Yunfei. No wonder, no wonder why I said Qin Feiyu was so heartless, it turns out it was all her doing."
Since learning the truth about the misunderstanding, not only Qin Feiyu has been investigating, but Xiao Hengzhi is also investigating. However, it is not easy to investigate things that happened more than ten years ago, not to mention that there was war at that time and bandits were everywhere in the Dayan Dynasty. Many people intercepted them along the way and killed and robbed them.
If Xu Yunfan had not taken action against the Wu family, Su Yunfei would have gone to their house for help several times but to no avail, and was ridiculed by him. She let the secret slip out of anger and grievance, and he caught the key words. I'm afraid he would never have suspected Shen Yunfei.
The private letters Qin Feiyu wrote to him couldn't possibly have been sent through the express delivery channel of 800 miles. Some letters even passed through multiple hands before reaching the capital. Shen Yunfei, taking advantage of the fact that he was poisoned and had no time to care for him, and her status as the niece of the Xiao family mistress, bribed the people in the mansion to intercept his letters. If it weren't for her, he and Qin Feiyu wouldn't have had misunderstandings for so many years. Without these misunderstandings, they wouldn't be so miserable, and the child wouldn't have disappeared...
So, this matter is all Su Yunfei's fault, it's all her fault.
Xiao Hengzhi is not the kind of person who wastes time on internal conflicts. He blames others more and himself less for everything. Only then can he feel less guilty and more happy.
"Mother, because of her, Fei Yu and I... If it weren't for him, my two children wouldn't have suffered so much. They are the young masters of the Xiao family, but they end up living a life of hunger and cold. All of this is her fault. I can't swallow this anger unless my son peels off her skin. Mother, you must avenge your two grandsons!"
After hearing the whole story, Grandma Xiao sank down on her chair, feeling lost. The child she loved and doted on like a daughter would do such a thing. "Why? Why would Yunfei do such a thing? How has our Xiao family wronged her?"
Some time ago, her eldest brother came to the house and said that Xu Yunfan beat the Wu siblings in public. This was too much and brought shame to their Su family. He asked her to vent her anger for Wu Lan and her daughter, go to the Fang family to reason, and warn Xu Yunfan by the way. The tone of his voice was so matter-of-fact that if you didn't know, you would think Su Yunfei was her daughter.
Over the years, without her, Old Princess Xiao, how could the Su family be where it is today? How could she, Su Yunfei, be where she is today?
Grandma Xiao asked herself that she had treated her niece Shen Yunfei much better than other aunts, but this is how she treated her own son?
If Shen Yunfei was in front of her at this moment, she would have whipped this ungrateful person to death.
Xiao Hengzhi sneered, "Why? It's because she likes me and wants to get me, but I rejected her, so she holds a grudge against me."
Xiao Hengzhi has looked down upon his cousin Shen Yunfei since he was a child. Others may not see through her, but he sees through her.
Shen Yunfei's fawning over her own mother, the calculations that were not easily revealed in her eyes, and her usual pampering and arrogance, in the eyes of others, might be just the insignificant and willful temper of a young lady, but in Xiao Hengzhi's eyes, it was really not presentable.
Not to mention that he, a king of the opposite sex, looked down on a girl like Shen Yunfei. Just because his mother loved her like her own daughter, Xiao Hengzhi couldn't have any other thoughts about her. However, Shen Yunfei insisted on falling in love with him.
"I rejected her, but I never thought she would do this." Xiao Hengzhi couldn't understand. He had already clearly rejected her, so why would Shen Yunfei do this?
Did he think that without Qin Feiyu, he would choose her?
It's not like he's so hungry that he can't find a wife.
If Xiao Hengzhi knew that there is a mentality called: "If I can't get it, no one else can get it", he would probably understand it.
Grandma Xiao held her forehead with her hand. If she spoke for Shen Yunfei, she would feel guilty towards her son, Qin Feiyu, and her two grandsons. "Just do whatever you want. I don't care about you now. You can deal with the people in the mansion however you want. Don't worry about me."
This is exactly what Xiao Hengzhi wanted to hear. "I've already said so. Let Xu Yunfan beat me however he wants. If his mother doesn't care, then it's even less likely that he will care."
Shen Yunfei returned to the Shen family and asked someone to investigate Xu Yunfan. After discovering Xu Yunfan's relationship with Qin Feiyu, she was so angry that she smashed everything in the room.
It’s Qin Feiyu again!
Qin Feiyu is just a tough guy, how can he be even a bit comparable to me?
Why did Xiao Hengzhi not like her but fell in love with him?
Shen Yunfei has liked Xiao Hengzhi since she was twelve years old. She has liked Xiao Hengzhi for seven years. But Xiao Hengzhi rejected her childhood sweetheart for a boy who fell in love with her. How could Shen Yunfei be willing to accept this?
Qin Feiyu's son really looks like Qin Feiyu, and was born to be a jinx to her and her daughter.
As soon as Xu Yunfan arrived in Beijing, Wu Lan lost face. Later, the Fang family broke off the engagement. Wu Lan and Fang Peizhou were supposed to get married in half a month. Because of Xu Yunfan, her daughter suffered a great injustice and lost face. She had to let Qin Feiyu taste how she felt at this moment.
Su Yunfei not only hated Qin Feiyu, but also hated Xu Yunfan. Now even her aunt and cousin were unwilling to help her, and Su Yunfei was even more unwilling to accept this.
Look, the rumor that Qin Run was a bastard and that the top scholar of his generation was having an affair with a bastard, after Su Yunfei's operation, spread like wildfire.
When Xu Yunfan learned about this, he sent people to investigate. He met with Xiao Heng that night and got the confirmation. Then he "changed" his face the next day and went out with a sack in his hand.
Later, the Su family found Su Yunfei in an alley. She had been put in a sack and had two front teeth knocked out. Her face was bruised and swollen.
presumptuous!
Who on earth is so presumptuous as to bully the Su family and beat their daughter into this state? Isn't this a provocation to the Su family?
The Su family couldn't find the murderer and begged Grandma Xiao for help. In response, Xiao Hengzhi simply drove them out, even though the people who came were his uncle and aunt.
He hasn't even come to ask for an explanation yet, and they still have the nerve to come. Do they really think he has no temper?
When Grandma Xiao learned that Su Yunfei was put in a sack and beaten, she just sighed. The Su family was really becoming more and more unreasonable. They couldn't even teach their own daughter well. So, let her grandson-in-law teach her for them.
…
Qin Qian brought his whole family to worship their ancestors. It was a big scene. Lord Qin brought both Qin Mu and Xiaobao along.
In the carriage, Qin Qingfeng glanced at Xiaobao, who was sitting obediently in Qin Run's arms, his two chubby hands unusually flexible, and asked with a chuckle, "Xiaobao, what are you playing?"
Xiaobao is a very delicate child. His pink and rosy little mouth makes his smile so sweet that it touches people's hearts. No wonder the Fang family treats him like their own grandson.
Xiao Bao raised the Rubik's Cube to Qin Qingfeng and said, "Grandpa, this is a Rubik's Cube. It's a toy my father gave me. Do you want to play with it?"
"How do we play?"
Qin Qingfeng took the Rubik's Cube and became interested after listening to Xiaobao's introduction of how to play it. However, after playing for half an hour, he was sweating on his forehead but still failed to restore the six sides.
Seeing Qin Qingfeng engrossed in the game, Fu Shaoping and Fu Shaoan also became interested. Qin Run took out two second-order Rubik's Cubes from the bag he was carrying and said, "You can play with this."
"Thank you, Brother Run." Brother Fu Shaoping was very happy after receiving the Rubik's Cube.
Qin Run saw that it took them a long time to solve the Rubik's Cube, so he took out a third-order Rubik's Cube and handed it to them. This time, the two brothers played with it for a long time but still couldn't solve it.
Xiaobao got down from Qin Run's arms and sat next to the two brothers to take on technical guidance. His calves were shaking, and he was holding a piece of dessert in his hand, his cheeks bulging from eating.
Qin Qingfeng admitted defeat and stopped competing. His eyes fell on Xiaobao. Under Fu Shaoan's suspicious gaze, he didn't know how Xiaobao turned the Rubik's Cube, but his hands were very fast. In just a few strokes, the Rubik's Cube was turned.
Seeing this, Qin Qingfeng's eyes couldn't help but become complicated. He gently touched Qin Run and said, "Brother Run, Xiaobao is very smart."
Qin Run nodded and agreed: "Well, this child is said to look like his father."
This was the first time Qin Qingfeng heard people talk about Xiaobao's father, and he couldn't help but be curious. After all, Fang Zixi had a great reputation in the capital. But the man who had rejected many young masters in the past finally returned to the capital with a big belly. Everyone had a lot of opinions about the man who made Fang Zixi pregnant before marriage.
Although it is not difficult to see from Xiaobao that his father must be a good man, it still makes people curious.
Qin Qingfeng: "It is said that? Is Xiaobao's father also this smart? Yunfan is very smart, or is Xiaobao like his uncle?"
