Mrs. Xue also agreed. She had never been angry with her mother-in-law, so she was willing to let her daughter suffer.
"Xuan'er, no matter what you want to do, mother will definitely support you." Mrs. Xue emotionally replied.
"Madam, the overseer is back?" Just as they were eating, Auntie Flower came over and whispered into their ears.
"Why is father back so early today?" Qi Zhen thought that most Governor Qi would come back at night during a midnight snack, so she came back early today.
Before Mrs. Xue could say anything, he walked in with large strides. He did not see Mrs. Xue but heard him.
"I heard that Xuan'er has returned today, so I'm also going home to eat dinner." Everyone stood up and respectfully called out "Father" and "Uncle".
Seeing that everyone was already eating, Governor Qi laughed, "I came back too late, did everyone already eat?"
Governor Qi looked at Qi Xuan with a smile, unable to conceal the smile in the corner of his eyes.
"Quick, give the old master a new pair of chopsticks." Mrs. Xue walked over again and supported him.
"Master, you didn't even say anything when you came back. We already know what we're doing by telling the people around us."
Mrs. Xue seemed to be complaining.
"I decided on the spur of the moment, so I came over. You guys eat your food, don't worry about me." Auntie Flower tactfully poured a cup of wine for Governor Qi. This was a habit that he had cultivated over the years.
"I won't be drinking today. It's also good to have some warm congee."
"Let me help father." Qi Xuan was very sensible, she served him the most considerate.
"Xuan'er is indeed a little more round than last time. I think that her complexion is better." Governor Qi glanced at Qi Xuan and he was happy in his heart, so he added on, "Young Master is also someone who is ambitious. I see that you can be promoted again in the near future, it's not bad."
Qi Xuan laughed and replied, "That's pretty good."
Mrs. Xue was all smiles, they had already thought about it, why did they have to get promoted now? It was definitely related to something that Governor Qi couldn't explain clearly. Mrs. Xue would be very foolish to complain about it.
Mrs. Xue looked at Jin Se again, she was very well-behaved, other than the words just now, there was nothing else she had thought of. This was the first time Mrs. Xue felt that this child actually had such backbone and thoughts, she sighed in her heart.
Everyone was finished eating. Qi Xuan wanted to sit with his two sisters for a while longer, and coincidentally only left Mrs. Xue and Governor Qi behind. Just as Governor Qi was about to undress, Mrs. Xue suddenly turned serious.
The little girl outside was still cleaning up the dishes, ding ding ding ding dong dong. As a result, Governor Qi lowered her voice and asked, "What happened?" I don't seem very happy with my wife. "
"Why did Young Master suddenly get promoted?" Mrs. Xue sat on the side of the bed and looked at Governor Qi. Although she did not understand the twists and turns of the job field, she could not be unrelated to Governor Qi in this matter.
"After all, he's our Young Master. I saw that he was quite capable, so I decided to promote him."
Governor Qi didn't feel that he did anything wrong, and drank another mouthful of hot tea. Suddenly, he heard Mrs. Xue say, "Master, now Young Master can't be promoted so early."
"What's going on? No matter what, he is still our girl's husband, I can't just sit by and watch. "
Governor Qi didn't understand what his wife was thinking.
"Xuan'er cried with me again today. Their family's old granny normally bullies people, so how could I not let my family's young lady suffer such grievances?"
After Mrs. Xue finished speaking, he took the handkerchief and wiped his tears.
"Xuan'er has been bullied and cried again?" When Governor Qi heard this, he was extremely angry. He had his eyes on the young son of the Wang family, but he never thought that his Wang family would actually do such a thing.
"Brother Hong is such a terrible person, how can he let my Xuan`er get bullied."
Mrs. Xue once again said this to her husband.
Amongst the three sons and daughters of the Mrs. Xue, in the end, Governor Qi, the father, had always doted on his eldest daughter Qi Xuan for some reason. This was because she was the first child in the family, and the first to let the Governor Qi understand the feeling of being a father.
"Old master, you chose this Wang Hong personally for us ladies. As he is your subordinate, you seemed to be outstanding at the start. Why is there such a troublesome matter in your family?"
Mrs. Xue's teary eyes looked at Governor Qi, her eyes filled with endless disappointment.
When Governor Qi saw that his wife was truly angry, he sighed and threw the clothes on the table. He sat beside Mrs. Xue and comforted her carefully, "How did I know about this in the beginning? That old mother of his said it straightforwardly, and Wang Hong is indeed a rarely seen handsome general. That's why I … Ye Zichen added his precious daughter over, but he didn't think that it would actually be like this. " As if Governor Qi was comforting his wife, he was unable to finish his words in his heart.
"Old master, since the raw rice has been cooked, my request is not too excessive. I only request that Young Master and the rest of the family split up and allow our Xuan`er to lead her own life, just as happy."
Mrs. Xue explained her thoughts. She seemed to have already expected what Governor Qi would say, and so she said, "It's already decided."
"Does Madame have to handle such a big matter all by herself now?"
The Governor Qi was clearly dissatisfied, "How about it, our Xuan'er is pregnant, how can she do it at this time? This is not good for Xuan'er, as a mother-in-law, she won't be many years old yet, so let her off easy."
When Mrs. Xue heard this, she never thought that her husband would not understand a woman's suffering so well. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she continued to speak, "Master, you're not a woman, you don't understand, today Xuan'er's dowry has already been snatched away by her black-hearted mother-in-law. Also, she's making things difficult for our Xuan'er, even if Xuan'er is pregnant, we don't even have a kitchen to cook in."
Mrs. Xue said with tears in her eyes, as though she would not rest until Governor Qi agreed.
"What?" "Why is this mother-in-law so domineering?"
When Governor Qi heard that, he did not feel good about it. Furthermore, that person was only a subordinate, yet he dared to act so rashly.
"Isn't the Wang family also a scholar and a scholar? To have a military general like Wang Hong, I've heard that their family is quite well-off, why is it like this … You don't even want your face anymore? You're planning to get a daughter-in-law's dowry, but now you can't even support a kitchen? "
The Mrs. Xue mocked and ridiculed him, until his face turned red and white.
"Then, Madam, according to your wishes …" Governor Qi asked tentatively.
"What I mean is that I naturally cannot show them what I mean. After so many things have happened, if I don't give them some face, my Xuan`er's future will not be so good."
Mrs. Xue continued, "Then we will directly write a letter to them explaining this matter. Also, Master, do not let Wang Hong taste the sweetness, you must let him know, without Xuan'er, it will be difficult for him to be promoted to an official."
The couple discussed their family's matters. Although their voices weren't loud, their intentions were clear.
Mrs. Xue thought that if the girls had packed everything up properly, then she boldly said, "If they were still as foolish as before, there would be no need for me to make the young lady's family suffer and sign the letter of departure. If you take your own path, I have my own."
Governor Qi did not expect his wife to be so resolute and decisive. She was also a fierce character, and he immediately admired her a little.
