Chapter 108: Can’t Collapse
Translator: 549690339
Xiao Baoxin did not care about the underling’s words and walked into the yard.
It was a small courtyard that was divided into four rooms. Yang Shao was in the west room. Mei Cai lifted the curtain and saw Biyu and Hupo guarding the inner room on the left and right. It seemed that Yang Shao and Xiao Jing ‘ai were talking quite secretly.
Yang Shao was stunned when he came in and raised his voice unconsciously.
“You were fine in the house just now. Why did you run out now?”
Neither of the two maids said a word. Bi Yu did not dare to ruin Xiao Jing ‘ai’s plans, while Hu Po was the one who informed them, so she could not be bothered to do something meaningless.
Xiao Baoxin acted as if he didn’t hear Yang Shao’s words. Youmei lifted the curtain and she went in.
Xiao Jing ‘ai sat at the table with her body tilted. From her clothes to her makeup, she was beautiful and beautiful. An open portrait of a person was placed beside her hand on the table. When she saw Xiao Baoxin enter, her gaze was as if it was filled with poison.
Unworthy to say, Xiao Baoxin must have bribed someone by her side to know that she was going out to see Yang Shao today!
It meant that Xiao Baoxin had never given up on persecuting her!
“Sister…” Xiao Jing ‘ai stood up slowly.
“A man and a woman staying in the same room, is this the upbringing that the Xiao family taught you?”Xiao Baoxin’s face was as dark as water as he stood opposite Xiao Jingai. Xiao Baoxin was taller and appeared more imposing.
“I think you don’t want your reputation anymore!”
Xiao Jing ‘ai swallowed his anger and didn’t want to show his cowardice in front of Yang Shao.
After all, she was using the excuse that she had a deep sisterly relationship with Xiao Baoxin. Everything was for the sake of her character. She could not let it fall apart. Otherwise, she would not be able to pick up her face in front of Yang Shao in the future.
“Elder sister, I just want to share the burden of the residence, share the burden of elder sister…”
Xiao Baoxin smiled. He had seen through her tricks, but it didn’t matter. You act, I respect you.
“To share your worries with Langjun’s family? In such an alley and such a courtyard, a man and a woman were alone together. You were really worried.”
“Lady Xiao, we are innocent.”When Yang Shao heard this, he couldn’t let Xiao Baoxin continue to misunderstand. He had personally invited a matchmaker to come and ask for a marriage. He couldn’t wait for her father to come back and have a scandal with her sister.
“I was just trying to help and catch Lu Liu. As for coming to my humble abode, it was purely because I was worried that it would damage your sister’s reputation if people saw her.”Of course, he was also afraid that his reputation would be damaged. If there were any rumors, he would be climbing up Xiao Baoxin’s social ladder.
“Perhaps it was not a good idea, I hope Lady Xiao can forgive me.”Yang Shao stared at Xiao Baoxin without blinking, but she didn’t even spare him a glance.
Yang Shao was perturbed.
“Big lady…”
“The room is too crowded. Let’s not squeeze here and talk. General Yang, I’m looking for my Second Lady. Since I’ve found her, I won’t disturb you.”
After Xiao Baoxin finished speaking, he pulled Xiao Jing ‘ai’s arm and walked out.
Inevitably, she heard a series of curses from Xiao Jing ‘ai. It was nothing more than ruining her plans and things like that.
Xiao Baoxin pulled Xiao Jing ‘ai’s arm back, and Xiao Jing’ ai screamed. Before she could react, Xiao Baoxin had already thrown her into Youmei’s arms.
“When will your car come back to pick her up?”Xiao Baoxin asked.
At this moment, Amber replied,”
“Reporting to Eldest Lady, Second Lady instructed the coachman to make two more rounds and come back in two hours.”
Yang Shao looked at Xiao Jing ‘ai in disbelief. She was clearly a weak little girl. How could she be so serious? If he still couldn’t understand it now, then he wouldn’t need to mingle in the imperial court.
However, he did not understand why Xiao Jing ‘ai, a lady from a noble family and the county head of the royal family, would deliberately use such a method on him…
He was thinking too highly of himself.
“Hupo, you traitor, how dare you slander wifey!?”Jasper counterattacked.
“It turns out that sister has already bribed Hu Po.”Xiao Jing ‘ai laughed coldly.
When Xiao Baoxin entered the house earlier, she had already admitted that Xiao Baoxin did not know anything. It would not be good to pour any dirty water on him now. He couldn’t possibly say that Xiao Baoxin had always been scheming and scheming against him, right? It was clear that she had been carrying the banner of sisterhood and using it as an excuse to get close to Yang Shao. There was nothing she could do if she went back on her words.
She dug a hole and buried it herself. Xiao Baoxin had treated her well.
However, if she couldn’t get it, no one could get it!
“Sister, I’m doing this for you.”Xiao Jing ‘ai burst into tears. “The body of that Xie Xian you like is not good at all. The whole family doesn’t want you to marry with him, so why do you insist on being stubborn?”
“I found General Yang in the hope that he would be able to use this matter to obtain elder sister’s favor. If the two of you can become a couple because of this, it will be a great fortune for the Xiao clan…General Yang’s family background was not prominent, but he was born into a hero, Mo Wen. Why would he not marry someone from an aristocratic family?”
“Elder sister, our Xiao family is also from a humble family, why do you have to be so rigid about marriage? You have to know that the same is not the same!”
“If you say one more word, don’t blame me for dragging you all the way back to the Xiao Manor.”
With just one sentence, the entire world fell silent.
Xiao Jing ‘ai was about to vomit blood. She believed that Xiao Baoxin could really do it!
“Hupo, go find the coachman and get him to bring us back to the residence immediately.”With Xiao Baoxin’s order, Hupo rushed out of the courtyard, not daring to stay for even a breath.
Xiao Jing ‘ai shut her mouth, but every word she said went into Yang Shao’s heart and lungs, making his internal organs hurt.
“Big Niangzi, it’s autumn and the sky is a bit cold. Why don’t we wait inside the house first? If Eldest Lady finds it inconvenient, I will guard outside and not enter.”He said, but there was no change in his expression.
However, Xiao Jing ‘ai could tell that his eyes had turned cold.
Hehe, no one understood this man better than her.
Xiao Baoxin shook his head.” It’s already disrespectful of me to come to the residence to disturb you. How can I take over the magpie’s nest? General Yang, you don’t have to be so polite. It was me and Second Mother who brought trouble to you.”
She didn’t give any explanation for Xiao Jing ‘ai’s slander. She didn’t need to explain anything to him.
“Eldest Lady, don’t say that. I was thoughtless…”
Before Yang Shao could finish his sentence, he heard Hupo’s voice outside. The car had arrived at the door.
It turned out that the coachman had randomly found a place to park the ox cart at the side. It was not far from here at all.
“If we have disturbed General, we will take our leave.”
Xiao Baoxin bowed slightly and took the lead to walk out of the courtyard. Before Hibiscus could open the car window, Yang Shao rushed forward.
“Eldest Lady, this one sincerely wishes to marry.”He lowered his head and stared at Xiao Baoxin without blinking. Only he knew that he almost couldn’t breathe when he said this.
“I don’t have a prominent family background, but I have a sincere heart. If I’m lucky enough to be pitied by Eldest Lady, I will do my best to treat Eldest Lady well, even if it takes my life..”
