Chapter 155 Small worries
After finally sending away the people who came to deliver congratulatory gifts, Xiao Bi felt sore all over her body, which was even more tiring than fighting.
Mama Bei isn't much better.
According to her previous plan, she simply packed her luggage and found an ordinary carriage. The mother and son traveled lightly and could reach Dongjun in a short time.
Nowadays, two carriages are needed for the gifts alone, and the journey takes at least two days longer.
She beat her waist, took the little maid's hand, and planned to go back to her room to rest.
"Xiao Bi, Mama Bei—" a familiar female voice came from behind.
Xiao Bi turned around and saw Hua Xiaohan looking at her and Bei's mother with a smile.
Huan Ji stood beside her, smiling so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.
Behind the couple were a group of maids and women, and everyone's hands were occupied by gift boxes.
Especially those rough ladies were carrying a huge box in their hands, which looked quite heavy.
Xiao Bi didn't realize anything, but Bei's mother was one and two big.
The third young lady is no different from the other ladies and girls, she actually came to give her a congratulatory gift.
Regardless of the friendship between the Xiaohua family, the friendship between the Queen and the Imperial Concubine, the childhood friendship between Xiaojiu and the Third Young Master, and the brotherhood between the uncle and the Third Young Master, she could not refuse this good offer.
Can……
Mother Bei glanced at the huge box and sighed silently.
Judging from her decades of experience in living in inner houses, 80% of what is contained in this box is a screen.
Having just rejected Xiaojiu, Madam Third Young Master immediately made up for her.
It seemed that she had to prepare two more carriages, otherwise she would really be unable to leave.
Hua Xiaohan and Huan Ji came forward and said congratulations to Bei's mother first.
Mother Bei said hurriedly: "The third young master and the third young lady just want to see what they want. There is really no need to give such a heavy gift."
Hua Xiaohan smiled and said: "It's not a big gift, it's just to bring some joy to Brother Zangfeng. Mom must accept it."
While the two were talking, Xiao Bi had already opened the big box.
Seeing what was inside clearly, she couldn't help laughing.
"Little Huahua, do you have a screen like this over there?"
It turns out that this screen is also made of rosewood, but the embroidery of flowers blooming and wealth has been replaced by happy brows, which looks just as festive.
Hua Xiaohan asked: "Is this the gift you prepared for Mama Bei?"
Xiao Bi didn't want to spoil her interest and said with a smile: "That's not true, it's just that I have almost the same screen in my warehouse."
Hua Xiaohan patted his chest gently: "It's okay, it's okay..."
Xiao Bi looked at the gift boxes in the hands of the maids and said to Bei's mother: "After doing this for a long time, I have become the most stingy person."
Bei's mother joked: "Does mom still argue with you?"
"No, no, no..." Xiao Bi shook her head vigorously: "There are already so many things anyway, and I don't care about adding a few more carriages. I have to add the things I was interested in before."
It was difficult for Bei's mother to argue with her in front of others, so she could only agree with a smile.
Xiao Bi told Qingzhao and others to put away the gifts sent by Hua Xiaohan, and led the young couple into the main room.
Huan Yu heard the conversation clearly. He did not intend to express his opinion and made a pot of tea with his own hands.
The four of them sat around the round table, and Huan Ji complained: "Brother, you and Xiaojiu said you were going to see Ji Fengzhuo, but you were there for several days, which made us quite worried."
Huan Yu smiled and said: "We also made an impromptu decision, thinking that Xiaojiu's cavalry already has 500 people, so we have to go and take a look.
I'm really sorry for making you and Xiaohan worry."
Huan Ji was not the one who cared about this, and he immediately put this small dissatisfaction behind him.
"Brother, tell us quickly, what kind of person is Ji Fengzhuo, and what did you say when you met him?"
Xiao Bi said with a smile: "Brother Huan invited him to meet at Shengyun Tower in three days. If you follow us then, won't you know everything?"
"Brother, are you really willing to take me with you?" Huan Ji looked at Huan Yu with a confused look.
Hua Xiaohan saw that his eyes were wet and looked like those of newborn puppies.
She quietly pinched Huan Ji.
This guy is usually pretty cool, but when he saw his second brother, he looked like he was more than ten years younger, and he actually acted like a spoiled brat!
"Hiss—" Huan Ji cried out in pain, and his expression finally returned to normal.
Huan Yu said: "We are all a family, and it is appropriate to meet each other. But you and Xiaohan should talk as little as possible when you arrive, so as not to fall into other people's tricks."
Huanji pursed his lips.
Ji Fengzhuo is really not easy to get along with, otherwise I wouldn't remind him and Xiaohan deliberately.
Xiao Bi said: "Aji, you want to see Ji Fengzhao so much, do you want to ask him about the oxytocin?"
Although Yun Ling explained everything that happened back then, the specific details were not particularly clear.
Although Mrs. Qiao saved her life, her roots were damaged. Not only was she no longer able to have children, but she also became a frail woman who could not live without the medicine jar all year round.
As Mr. Qiao's biological son and a direct victim of the oxytocin case, it was understandable that Huan Ji wanted to find out the truth of the matter.
Sure enough, Huan Ji nodded vigorously: "Yes, I can't watch my mother suffer innocently, I have to give her a clean slate."
Huan Ji and Hua Xiaohan are both trustworthy people, and when things have reached this point, there is nothing to hide.
He then informed the two of them about the topics discussed during their two meetings with Ji Fengzhuo.
Huan Ji was surprised: "Ji Fengzhuo wants you to replace General Lian and be the commander-in-chief of his first army?"
Hua Xiaohan glanced at Xiao Bi with some worry.
Although she doesn't understand war, if she wants to regain the country, can she do it in a few days or even months?
The second brother and Xiao Bi have been married for less than half a year. What if this fight drags on for ten or eight years? What should Xiao Bi do?
At this moment, Hua Xiaohan was so worried that she completely forgot that Xiao Bi was not a weak noble girl like her, but a more powerful female hero than Huan Ji.
Xiao Bi just listened to the two brothers talking. Although she realized that Hua Xiaohan was looking at her, she didn't realize what the other person was thinking for a while.
Seeing that Hua Xiaohan's brows were furrowed and her eye circles were a little red, Xiao Bi moved closer to her.
"What's the matter? Are you worried that Aji will do something stupid on impulse?"
"You're the one doing something stupid!" Hua Xiaohan came to his senses and retorted.
"Then what's wrong with your eyes? Don't tell me that you feel sorry for Aji." Xiao Bi said with a bad smile.
Hua Xiaohan glared at her: "I obviously feel sorry for you, but I'm so kind as to treat you like a donkey!"
Xiao Bi pointed to her nose: "Are you feeling sorry for me?"
"Oh, you are really..." Hua Xiaohan leaned close to her ear and started chirping.
She made the same mistake as before, thinking that the Huan brothers couldn't hear what she was saying if her voice was too low.
