He Wei

It was almost dusk when the guests dispersed and the yard was tidied up, and the three of them who had been busy all day were exhausted.

Even after the meeting ended, Xue Chengyu didn't have time to rest, and continued to formulate the business plan for the second half of the year.Xu Lang and Xue Chengyi nestled in Xue Chengyu's room, drinking hot tea and cultivating their spirits.

During the day, the fact that Qiao Jian came to disrupt the situation has been lingering in Xu Lang's mind. Qiao Jian's purpose this time is very strong, and he always shows that he is targeting himself and Xue Chengyu. What will Xue Chengyu think of him if he will be exposed?

Just as Xue Chengyu finished writing the last stroke and was about to speak, a servant suddenly came from the courtyard to report.

It turned out that the young master of the Qiao family heard that his younger brother was making trouble in Xue's mansion, and was so angry that he couldn't come up and passed out. Qiao Jian had no choice but to come to Xue Chengyu to have a look.

After going through the day's events, Xue Chengyu felt that many recent events happened too coincidentally. Mr. Pei's [-]th birthday, Qiao Jian persuaded him to drink, Qiao Jian pointed out their relationship at his own banquet, and then Young Master Qiao fainted suddenly. On purpose?

Even though Xue Chengyu didn't want to see Qiao Jian, he couldn't just leave him dead. He stared at Xu Lang for a long time before sighing to Xu Lang: "Xiao Lang, don't come with me this time, Cheng Yi, you come with me."

Xu Lang instantly understood Xue Chengyu's good intentions, put down the teacup, went to the medicine house to bring the medicine box to Xue Chengyi.

Xue Chengyi knew that Qiao Jian was not easy to deal with. His brother did this to protect Xu Lang, so he took the medicine box and carried it on his back.

"Don't worry, Xiaohong, we'll go and see." After speaking, he took Xue Chengyi out of the room.

Seeing the backs of the two leaving, Xu Lang always felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart, fearing that tonight would not be peaceful.

The two came to Qiao's mansion under the leadership of the servants of Qiao's family. Now Qiao Jian lost his arrogance in the morning.

But he still maintained his attitude as if looking down on all sentient beings, and he seemed to ignore the two of them, and he didn't let go of his airs until they entered the room.

Xue Chengyu only glanced at Qiao Jian and pretended that he was not in this room. Since he knew the cause and effect, he didn’t need to ask any more questions. Big, heart stagnation, causing shortness of breath for a while, just need me to give a few needles and it will be fine."

Xue Chengyi handed the needle to Xue Chengyu, and helped Young Master Qiao up so that Xue Chengyu could administer the needle.After a few injections, Young Master Qiao's weak breathing became steady, and he woke up after a while.

As soon as Young Master Qiao opened his eyes and saw Xue Chengyu, he hurriedly grabbed Xue Chengyu's sleeve as if he had seen a savior.

"Thank you brother Xue for your help, otherwise I will be pissed off by this brat who has no respect for his elders! What are you doing there, why don't you hurry up and thank him!"

Qiao Jian bowed his hands to Xue Chengyu very unwillingly, then turned and left the room with his head raised.

This move made Young Master Qiao lose his breath again. Seeing that it was inconvenient for outsiders, he had to suppress his anger and apologized: "Brother Xue, please forgive me. He has been like this since he was a child, and he will not listen to anyone's advice." .Today he is still picking trouble at brother Xue's banquet, it's really rude."

Xue Chengyu was not a person who would hold on to something, he didn't care about Qiao Jian's behavior, and replied: "It's okay, he is one year younger than me, and his thinking is immature, and it is inevitable to make some small mistakes. Young Master No matter what happens recently, don't be angry, the so-called anger hurts the body, the load on the body this time is already too heavy, if the young master's body is regenerated, he will not be able to hold on."

Listening to Xue Chengyu's instructions, Young Master Qiao shook his head helplessly, and said, "Well, it's because your Xue family is well-bred, and our Qiao family should learn from you."

Xue Chengyu lowered his head and smiled, not expressing his opinion.The Qiao family as a whole are all reasonable and talkative people, only Qiao Jian speaks in a strange way.

The two brothers are not similar in life. In order to continue the Qiao family, the elder brother mainly manages the family with diligence and thrift.

Thinking of Xue Chengyu, the two brothers of the Qiao family, who suddenly thought of his own situation. Didn't he and Xue Chengyi go against each other like this? At least Xue Chengyi can save him some worry.

"It's getting late, and there are still matters to be dealt with in the mansion. I'll take a step first and say goodbye." After speaking, he turned around and left the room with Xue Chengyi.

"Qiao Jian! Send Young Master Xue off for me!"

Even though Qiao Jian was unwilling in every possible way, he could not disobey his elder brother's order, so he came to Xue Chengyu reluctantly and said "please".

All three of them remained silent on the road, maintaining the state of "you won't offend me, I won't offend you". But after a while, Qiao Jian seemed to want to provoke Xue Chengyu deliberately, picking out what Xue Chengyu didn't want to hear.

"I wonder if Young Master Xue will know his family background, identity experience, and temperament before hiring a servant?"

"Of course, all servants of the Xue family have a detailed record."

"What about Xu Hong? As your most important person, you don't know his details, do you?"

Xue Chengyu didn't understand the meaning of the question, she frowned and looked at Qiao Jian puzzled, Linglong kept thinking about how to respond.

At this time, Qiao Jian seemed to see that Xue Chengyu couldn't answer, so he smiled triumphantly, waved his folding fan, and said slowly to Xue Chengyu.

"Victims like Xu Hong who fled from the north cannot survive without taking a few lives on their backs. If the Yellow River floods, there will be famine. Coupled with the outbreak of plague, food and water are scarce resources. In order to survive, they must eat people. However, based on Xu Lang's weakness in the early years, he may have barely survived because of being given to others, but there is no guarantee that he has not eaten human flesh..."

Before Qiao Jian finished speaking, Xue Chengyi immediately interjected: "What do you mean by that?"

Qiao Jian spread his hands and raised his eyebrows, he didn't care about Xue Chengyi's unreasonable interruption, and continued: "Three years ago, Xu Hong came to my house to do something. It can be as slow as embroidery, and it is also greedy.

For a while he was lazily eating in the yard and I caught him, and immediately dropped his things and ran away.

I wanted to punish him afterwards, but he immediately knelt down, hugged my leg and begged me to spare him. Do you know how he looked like a begging dog at that time?

Young Master Xue also knows how precious my clothes are, and when he touches my clothes with his dirty hands, it makes me feel sick! "

Hearing this, Xue Chengyu's heart suddenly became angry, his eyes were surprisingly red, his hands were unconsciously clenched tightly, and the veins on his arms burst out.

He really wanted to punch Qiao Jian right now, his beloved and cherished Xiao Hong was actually a dog in Qiao Jian's eyes, a dog wagging his tail and begging for mercy!

Qiao Jian felt that the degree of provocation to Xue Chengyu was not enough, so he continued to describe with emotion: "I keep him with good intentions in my heart, but I don't want him to take revenge on me and deliberately sweep the leaves on me when the leaves fall the most in autumn. Dirty my dark pattern cloud brocade robe.

I drove him out of Qiao's mansion in a fit of anger, but I didn't expect him to defect to your door. I don't understand why Xue's mansion keeps such useless trash?Are you really short of people around you? "

Xue Chengyu asked furiously, "Who do you call trash?"

"Of course Xu Lang?" Qiao Jian looked at Xue Chengyu with a natural expression, "Xue Shao is 20 years old and has never had a woman by his side, and I have never seen a woman coming in and out of Xue's house. Not only I suspect that Xue Shao likes men, but even the whole Jiangnan. are discussing.

What do you say you like that wimp?It is his constant care, are you grateful to him?Or can he give you the satisfaction of being a man? "

Qiao Jian suddenly closed his fan and put it in front of his lips, with an expression of being frightened because he guessed the reason, he pretended to ask in disbelief: "It can't be the latter... If it's the latter, it's easy to say, the waiting hall opposite Tianxiang Tower There are quite a few young ladies who are much better than Xu Hong, I wonder if Young Master Xue is interested in taking a look at them?"

"Shameless, obscene!" Xue Chengyu gritted his teeth and squeezed out these two words from between his teeth. How could his little girl be compared with those young men!This is undoubtedly the biggest irony to him and to Xu Lang!

"In your eyes, I am an ignorant second-generation ancestor. I am the best at playing with women. I don't understand what my brothers mean by nobility. The front is the Xue Mansion, so I will stop here and not see you off."

At this time Xue Chengyu was already trembling with anger, if Xue Chengyi hadn't stopped him in front of him, he really wanted to beat Qiao Jian severely with crutches.

He didn't care about Qiao Jian because of Brother Qiao's face, but he didn't expect him to take revenge even more. Such a person would be a disaster sooner or later.

Xue Chengyu went back to Xue's mansion under Xue Chengyi's tugging and tugging. As soon as he entered the gate, he ordered someone to close the mansion door, and returned to the house aggressively.

Xu Lang didn't know what happened. He wanted to hand Xue Chengyu a cup of tea, but he didn't want Xue Chengyu to take the cup and fall to the ground.

Xu Lang had never seen Xue Chengyu get so angry. He didn't know what to do for a while, so he could only squat down and carefully pick up the debris on the ground.

At the same time, Xue Chengyi heard the sound and saw Xu Lang squatting on the ground with aggrievedness, he quickly helped him up, and pulled him aside to hide from Xue Chengyu.

Xu Lang was confused by the two brothers, and asked in puzzlement: "What's the matter? What happened when you went to Qiao's house?"

Xue Chengyi sneaked a glance at Xue Chengyu, and struggled for a long time before he figured out how to explain it: "On our way back, Qiao Jian told elder brother what happened to you in Qiao's mansion back then... Elder brother was so angry that he wanted to beat Qiao Jian. I got it back with a tug and a tug..."

"The young master is despising me..."

Before he finished speaking, Xue Chengyu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly interrupted him, "I have never disliked you! I am just angry, Qiao Jian is too sinister, and he deliberately said such disgusting words to slander you while you were not around!

Thinking of the punishment you suffered at that time, my heart hurts like a knife. The person I take care of and take care of carefully is just a dog in his eyes... a servant who meets my needs... this How can I swallow this breath! "

After understanding the consequences, Xu Lang sighed helplessly, helped Xue Chengyu to sit on the bed, and patiently persuaded: "I belong to you, you can look at me as you want, and don't care about others' opinions."

"But they slander you like that, can you bear it?"

Thinking of those people who thought they were useless when they were young, Xu Lang couldn't help but smile sadly, "I alone can't make up for a lot of money, and I can destroy my bones, but silence is my last line of defense. I haven't blocked other people's promotion and fortune. , they will not kill me.

Time is the best blade. After a long time, they will forget these things.Now I just want to spend every day with Cheng Yu, and I don't care what they say. "

Xue Chengyu looked at Xu Lang, and couldn't calm down for a long time. After a while, he managed to adjust his temper. He held Xu Lang's hand tightly and promised, "In this case, I will always guard you and prevent you from being hurt in the slightest. Gossip has nothing to do with us from now on.”
