The reborn poisonous woman is hard to abandon

Chapter 106 Going to ask the old lady for forgiveness

"Master, where did you go just now?"

As soon as Xiao Hong returned to Lixiangyuan, Mrs. Gu hurriedly surrounded him, poured him a cup of Biluochun, his favorite drink, and observed his expression carefully.

Just now Xiao Hong came here and asked Xiao Ying a few words, then left hurriedly with a look of anger, which made her feel her eyelids twitching, and she always felt that something was wrong.

Xiao Hong sat down angrily, without even looking at the jasper-like tea in the cup, his eyes stared fiercely at Xiao Ying who was at the side like an arrow.

Xiao Ying was so stared at that she couldn't understand why the other party looked at her like that.

Thinking back carefully, Xiao Ying felt that she did not make any mistakes, and she had told Xiao Hong just now that she was going to marry into Prince Huai's mansion, isn't this a happy event worth celebrating?

"Master, what happened, you will scare Ying'er if you look at her like this." Sensing that something was wrong, Gu took a look at Xiao Ying who had an inexplicable face, and immediately stepped forward to speak for her.

"Humph!"

Hearing Gu's voice, Xiao Hong's eyes burst into anger again.

He only thought that Gu Shi had been with him for so many years, so he should know the rules of the capital anyway, but he didn't think that she hadn't figured out how powerful it was until now.

"Let me ask you, why on earth do you say things that don't require your status!"

With a heavy cold snort, Xiao Hong suppressed the anger in his heart, and decided to ask about the specific situation when Xiao Ying was rescued by King Huai.

Just now, the old lady has made it clear that she will never help to enter the palace to intercede. In this way, marrying his daughter to Prince Huai's mansion is not as valuable as marrying a subordinate. How can he watch such a thing happen?

Xiao Ying didn't seem to think that Xiao Hong was paying attention to this sentence, and was still a little dazed for a while.

"Father, the reason why my daughter said this is to tell His Highness Duke Huai that her daughter loves her wholeheartedly, and she doesn't want him to think that her daughter is someone who is greedy for power and wealth."

"Hehe! You are so affectionate and righteous, so do you know that His Highness Duke Huai really didn't give you any status, and you were a concubine worse than a maid!"

Xiao Hong laughed back angrily, wishing he could knock open this daughter's head and see what was inside.
She didn't want the dignified position of side concubine just to show her nobility, she was really stupid!
"Old...Master, what are you talking about? Didn't His Highness Duke Huai promise to ask the emperor to stop Ying'er from being his side concubine? How come there is no status?"

When Gu Shi heard this, his face turned pale, and he immediately grabbed Xiao Hong's hand, his face full of anxiety.

Knowing that Xiao Ying was going to marry into the Huaiyang Mansion, Gu's heart was full of joy. She wanted to tell Xiao Hong immediately, but felt that she should be given a surprise, so she kept silent.

When Xiao Hong came to inquire just now, she thought that the other party should praise her daughter well after knowing about it, but who would have thought that he would leave with a face of anger after asking a few hastily.

But now hearing Xiao Hong's words, Gu Shi was shocked.

Xiao Ying clearly told her that King Huai wanted to marry her as his side concubine...

"Then I have to ask your good daughter who is noble and untainted by vulgar things!"

Mrs. Gu hadn't figured out why here, when she suddenly heard Xiao Hong's sarcasm, her face froze for a moment, she understood the cause and effect in an instant, and said with a smile that she thought she understood very well.

"Master, what Ying'er said in front of His Highness Huai Wang was clearly just to tell the truth, how could he take it seriously? Huai Wang personally agreed..."

As Gu Shi was talking, seeing that the anger on Xiao Hong's face remained unchanged, and the speed of his speech gradually slowed down, it was only later that he realized that what Xiao Hong said was actually true.

Her complexion changed suddenly, she turned her head to look at Xiao Ying who was still in a daze, and immediately turned her head eagerly: "Ying'er, what's the matter with you? Why did you say that nonsense to Duke Huai!"

Gu's eyes were terrified, her daughter was also a decent young lady in Shangshu's mansion, and she was also a concubine's daughter, enough to marry a prince.

But what's the matter now that he was just accepted into the mansion by the etiquette of the concubine?

"I……"

Seeing that the two of them were looking at her angrily, Xiao Ying's heart tightened, she was speechless, and her eyes were full of grievances.

If Xiao Hong hadn't come looking for him angrily, she would not have known that she would be treated like this when she married into Duke Huai's residence.

At that time, when she heard that Xiao Ruan was begging for the position of concubine for herself, she subconsciously felt that the other party definitely had a conspiracy in doing so.

Besides, she was usually jealous of Xiao Ruan, but she still had some self-knowledge. She knew that being able to become Zhao Yan's side concubine in her own capacity was already a coincidence, so how could she dare to ask for the position of concubine?
Thinking that she was not married as a side concubine, Xiao Ying's face suddenly showed panic, and she hurriedly pleaded with Xiao Hong.

"Father, I really didn't expect that King Huai would not give me a title. You must help me! My daughter doesn't want to marry and become a concubine!"

"Help? How do you ask me to help? When your accident happened today, the old lady was present, and she would never let you be wronged in the slightest. It is your own initiative that you don't want any identity, so what do you want us to say!"

Xiao Hong could no longer hold back the anger in his heart.

Xiao Ying voluntarily asked not to have any status, and Huai Wang directly went down the slope. If they asked Xiao Ying for status, wouldn't they confirm the fact that the Xiao family was greedy for power?

How did he give birth to such a brainless daughter!

"Master, please calm down first, isn't the old lady still a bit of a slender face with the queen mother? As long as the old lady is persuaded to enter the palace to deal with one or two, and ask the queen mother for a favor, His Highness Duke Huai will give Ying'er a title no matter what. what!"

At this moment, Mrs. Gu understood the seriousness of the matter, and complained in her heart that her daughter was being confused, but she quickly thought of a solution as soon as she turned her eyes.

"You think I didn't go to see the old lady?"

Xiao Hong turned around and glared at Gu Shi fiercely, then turned his annoyed eyes to Xiao Ying: "If it wasn't for your daughter who made her own claims and didn't give the old lady any face, how could the old lady be so angry that she scolded me too?" pause!"

Thinking of what the old lady said firmly to him, Xiao Hong's face turned blue again.

Hearing this, Mrs. Gu couldn't help feeling annoyed in her heart.

Xiao Hong was so angry, it must be that the old hag said something about her and her daughter.

And from Xiao Hong's tone, that old witch clearly knew that Duke Huai would not give her daughter a title, so why didn't she bring it up and help her daughter fight for it?
The last time her daughter was imprisoned by her and almost died, she must have waited until now to deliberately watch their jokes and take revenge on their mother and daughter!

On the other side, Xiao Ying's face turned pale when she heard the conversation between the two of them.

She was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help crying and hid in Gu's arms: "Mother, you must help your daughter. If your daughter really married like this, she will definitely be bullied!"

"Now that you know how powerful you are, what did you do earlier! The daughter of the dignified minister of the Ministry of War went to be a concubine in Duke Huai's mansion, you think being a father will give you glory!"

Hearing Xiao Ying's cries, Xiao Hong became more and more bored, and once again spoke angrily.

Gu Shi held Xiao Ying in her arms, anxious in her heart, heard Xiao Hong's angry scolding voice, and was about to pretend to be pitiful and ask him to save Xiao Ying, when suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she instantly figured it out.

Gu gently pushed away Xiao Ying whose face was full of tears, walked up to Xiao Hong, stretched out her jade white hand to caress his chest, and made him another cup of hot tea after feeling that the other party was not as angry as before. , into his hands.

"Master, this matter is not without room for maneuver. The old lady has always attached great importance to the reputation of our Xiao family, and will never really ignore this matter."

Just now Xiao Hong vented his anger towards Xiao Ying, but he was no longer as angry as before. He had even accepted the fact that Xiao Ying had no title to marry Zhao Yan, and secretly thought about how to use this useless daughter. It is possible to leave a good impression in front of Duke Huai.

But at this moment, when he heard Gu's words, his hands paused, and he suddenly realized that he was really confused just now.

The old lady attaches great importance to the Xiao family's reputation, and she will never marry the Xiao family's prostitute daughter who has no name or distinction like this.

"The old lady is angry now. I will ask Ying'er to kowtow to her as a punishment for her. When her anger subsides, she will definitely go to the palace to explain clearly to Ying'er."

Seeing that Xiao Hong's expression softened a little, Gu Shi knew that he had listened to his words, and secretly winked at Xiao Ying who was behind her.

Xiao Ying didn't know what to do with tears in her eyes, when she suddenly saw Gu Shi blinking at her, and instantly understood, she knelt down on the ground with a "plop".

"Father, grandma has misunderstood her daughter and doesn't like her, but the daughter's filial piety to her grandmother is a lesson to be learned from time to time. This time, the daughter's slip of the tongue is really not to give the old lady face. The daughter went to kneel in front of the grandmother, Ask her to forgive her daughter."

Xiao Ying cried until the pear blossoms were raining, she kowtowed heavily to Xiao Hong and hurriedly got up to find the old lady.

Because of Gu's words, Xiao Hong felt more and more that the old lady would not really let this matter go. He heard Xiao Ying say that the old lady didn't want to see her, and immediately remembered that a few days ago, the old lady insisted on letting Xiao Ying close confinement thing.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Hong rubbed his brows, and stopped Xiao Ying when she was about to leave the room: "Forget it, come back! The old lady is in a fit of anger right now, so please stop It pissed him off in the past."

Xiao Ying paused, and immediately turned her head and thanked Xiao Hong sobbing: "Father, my daughter must listen to you. If grandma refuses to forgive me, please father to say a few more good words for Ying'er."

Xiao Ying kept her attitude extremely low, and Xiao Hong also knew that there was no other way but to persuade the old lady, so he could only sigh and let her go down to rest.

"Master, there is actually nothing wrong with Ying'er saying that. Which man doesn't want a woman to be infatuated with him? Maybe His Highness Duke Huai is willing to take the position of side concubine because of Ying'er's expression. Give it to Yinger."
