The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

Jiang Si wringed her hair dry, and drank the ginger sugar water that Ah Qiao offered, she felt warm all over her body, and she fell into a deep sleep not long after lying down on the bed.

Going into the water to save people is too physically exhausting, and she has long been exhausted.

The Dongping Uncle's Mansion was shrouded in quiet darkness, but the Anguo Mansion, which was two streets away, was crowded with people and brightly lit.

Mrs. Anguo's wife, Mrs. Wei, who was leaning against the head of the bed, was crying hysterically while grabbing the hand of Mrs. Anguo.

An Guogong's face was gloomy, and he was upset by Wei's crying, so he reluctantly comforted: "Don't cry, didn't Dalang rush over, Saburo will be fine."

Previously, the mansion caused a lot of trouble because of Saburo's disappearance. At night, he heard that Saburo was drowning. He just asked Dalang to rush over. Now he doesn't know how Saburo was drowning.

An Guogong's heart was up and down, when the servant hurried in and reported: "Guo Gongye, madam, the prince has returned with the third son."

"Let them in!" Before Anguo could speak publicly, Mrs Wei suddenly sat up.

Not long after, footsteps sounded outside the door, and the maid raised the beaded curtain and walked in three people.

Wei passed the eldest son Ji Chongli, and saw Ji Chongyi, the third son, who was bloodless at a glance, got up and rushed over: "Sanlang, what's the matter with you? Let mother see if there is anything wrong!"

"Mother, I'm fine." Ji Chongyi showed a weak smile.

"How can it be all right?" Mrs Wei stroked Ji Chongyi's cheek, and tears rolled down her cheeks, "My hair is wet, how can it fall into the water!"

"Cough cough."

The cough sounded, and Wei Shi couldn't help but glance at An Guogong.

An Guogong's eyes fell behind Ji Chongyi.

There was a petite woman standing half a zhang away from Ji Chongyi. At this moment, she was touching the hem of her clothes with her head lowered, and she couldn't hide her unease.

Wei Shi's face changed immediately, and her voice couldn't help raising: "Who is she?"

When Ji Chongyi saw this, he stretched out his hand and pulled Qiao Niang to his side, looking directly into Wei's eyes: "Mother, she is the person that his son is happy with, called Qiao Niang."

Wei's face froze, staring at Qiao Niang with bottomless eyes: "So you are Qiao Niang. I heard that you saved our Saburo, but I haven't thanked you yet."

Qiao Niang looked up at Mrs Wei in surprise, then lowered her head and said nervously, "No, I don't dare to be Mrs. Xie—"

"Hanfang, take Miss Qiaoniang down and have a good rest." Wei interrupted Qiaoniang's words lightly.

Hanfang, the maid next to Wei's, walked to Qiaoniang and said with a smile, "Miss Qiaoniang, please come with your maid."

Qiao Niang couldn't help but glance at Ji Chongyi.

Ji Chongyi thought for a while, and nodded gently to Qiao Niang: "Go and rest, I'll see you tomorrow."

Only then did Qiao Niang feel relieved and followed the maid out.

Wei Shi's eyes flashed a cold light.

She's really a wild girl who doesn't know the rules at all. Not to mention that a girl's family interacts with her son, she just said that when she left just now, she didn't know how to salute those present, so you can see how upbringing it is.

"Zhanrui, quickly bring the ginger tea to the third son."

Soon a maid in the same attire as Hanfang came forward with a cup of ginger tea.

An Guogong watched his younger son finish drinking the ginger tea, and then asked, "What's going on?"

These words were asked by Ji Chongli, the son of Duke Anguo.

Ji Chongli quickly glanced at Ji Chongyi, knowing that he couldn't hide it, he said bravely, "Third brother...Third brother jumped into the lake with that woman..."

"Damn!" An Guogong kicked over a chair.

Ji Chongyi thumped and knelt down.

Wei Shi gave An Guogong an irritated look: "What is the lord doing with such a big fire? If Saburo falls into the water, it is better to ask the doctor to take a look, and prescribe a few pairs of cold medicine."

"What do you ask the doctor to do? Who can stop him if he wants to die?" An Guogong looked at Ji Chongyi who was kneeling on the ground and became more and more angry.

Pointing at him and scolding, "The little beast is really capable, he will die for a woman!"

Ji Chongyi kowtowed: "Father, mother, you two elders can fulfill your son."

Hey, it seems to be hitting right!

An Guogong was furious: "Don't think about it, as long as I live, you will give me the heart to die, and honestly marry the four girls from Dongping Uncle Mansion!"

Wei Shi did not persuade him anymore, his face was equally ugly.

She originally despised Uncle Dongping's mansion. At that time, in order to repay Uncle Dongping's life-saving grace, An Guogong insisted on setting up a marriage with his family, and she made a few troubles.

But no matter how bad the East Pingbo Mansion is, it is still stronger than the ordinary people.

Ji Chongyi knelt up straight, with a firm tone: "Father, my son only likes Qiao Niang, and doesn't like the four girls from Dongping Uncle's Mansion. The son has never even seen her, so he really can't marry her!"

"Sanlang, I have already inquired about my father. The four girls of the Uncle Dongping are famous beauties among the noble girls in the capital." An Guogong persuaded patiently.

"Yes, your engaged stepmother also took a chance to see it, your father didn't coax you." Wei shi followed.

"In the eyes of my son, Qiao Niang is the most beautiful!" Ji Chongyi looked up at An Guogong, "Father, you can marry Dongping Uncle Mansion in order to repay your kindness, why can't you understand your son? If there was no Qiao Niang, my son would be long gone. —"

"Shut up! In short, marriage matters can't be left to you. If you continue to be obsessed with it, I will order someone to drive out Qiao Niang!"

"If father catches Qiao Niang away, then he should drive away his son as well." Ji Chongyi simply stood up.

"You—" An Guogong trembled with anger, turned his head and shouted at the old woman standing at the door, "Take someone to beat that Qiao Niang out!"

"No!" Ji Chongyi raised his foot to chase after seeing the old woman going out.

An Guogong shouted: "Dalang, stop your third brother!"

Ji Chongli grabbed Ji Chongyi's arm and persuaded: "Third brother, don't make father angry."

"Brother, get out of the way!" Ji Chongyi wanted to push Ji Chongli away, but he couldn't. Seeing that the old lady was about to go out, he spat out a mouthful of blood in a hurry and anger, and then fell on Ji Chongli.

Wei Shi was so horrified that her face paled, and she shouted in a loud voice, "Please ask the doctor--"

Soon the doctor diagnosed and treated Ji Chongyi. He said that he vomited blood and fell into a coma because of the rapid fire attacking the heart and the cold qi entering the body.

When the doctor went out to prescribe the prescription, Wei Shi couldn't help complaining about An Guogong: "Master is so quick-tempered, do you want to force Saburo to death?"

"I forced him to death? You're not used to him being so ignorant!" Although An Guogong said that, he couldn't help but feel a little scared when he thought of Ji Chongyi's vomiting blood.

Wei Shi held the veil to wipe her tears: "What's the use of talking about this now? Don't you and Dalang and the others hurt Saburo? If you want me to say it, it's serious to think about what to do."

"In any case, the marriage with Dongping Bofu is not allowed to retire!"

"But if the master separates Saburo and Qiao Niang abruptly, Saburo may really not be able to live."

Seeing An Guogong sneering, Mrs Wei cried: "Master, think about it, Saburo and Qiao Niang have both sacrificed their love once, and if there is a first time, there will be a second time. If Saburo is really good or bad, we will regret it. It's too late."

"Then what do you say?"

Mrs Wei stopped sobbing, glanced at the back room, and thought about it: "Otherwise, our marriage with the Uncle Dongping will remain unchanged. As for Qiao Niang, let Saburo take her as a concubine."
