Chapter 463 Chase

  Bao Ya smiled, and said casually: "It's okay, I will go back with Grandpa Zhong and the others tomorrow, Jiao Jiao may not come back tomorrow, I will stop by to say goodbye to Jiao Jiao."

  Aqin was a little anxious, her mind was buzzing, and she subconsciously said: "Slave, slave still thinks something is wrong."

Bao Ya looked at the little girl in confusion, and Siming Yue on the side hesitated, then said in a low voice: "Bao Ya, this girl is really not suitable for sending into the palace at the moment, after all, the harem is under the control of the empress, so it would It's tongue-in-cheek."

  Liu Zhihua was startled when she heard that, just now she was also reluctant to have no one who understands Guaibao to serve her, so she thought it would be fine for Baoya to take her along.

  But Mingyue's words hit her, the empress dotes on Jiaojiao, and the servants in the residence must be chosen by herself, if Baoya really sends the maid over there, the empress should think more.

   Besides, the imperial palace is different from other places. Now that Qiu Sheng has become a high-ranking official, he can't afford to see that there are many people in his family. If there is any trouble like before, he can't afford it.

  Liu Zhihua said solemnly, "No one is allowed to enter the palace. Aqin stays at home to take care of her. Jiaojiao comes back after staying for two days. Don't make any trouble."

  Bao Ya is also smart, immediately realized the stakes, nodded and said: "Mom, then I won't go, after all, Jiaojiao will return to town after a while, and then we sisters will talk."

   Liu Zhihua nodded in relief.

   "Okay, let's go to the mansion, your aunt and the others are leaving this afternoon."

  …

   After noon,

  Yingniang followed her daughter and son-in-law on the way back.

  As soon as their carriage drove out of Chengmen, Yingniang lifted the curtain and was looking out of the window distractedly.

  Suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes behind her, she looked back subconsciously, and saw a familiar face.

  Qian Baokang rushed to catch up, happened to meet Aunt Ying's eyes, and shouted with shame: "Aunt Ying, can I delay your time for a cup of tea?"

  Fang Xinyu, who heard the movement in front, asked people to stop the carriage. He came out and saw that it was Qian Baokang. He walked over with a smile on his face, and greeted him, "Baokang, why are you here?"

  Qian Baokang got off his horse immediately, clasped fists with Fang Xinyu and shouted, "Brother-in-law."

  Yingniang froze when she heard this title, she looked at her son-in-law and Qian Baokang in puzzlement, wondering why they were so familiar.

  Fang Xinyu didn't know about Qian Baokang's past with his mother-in-law, so he smiled and introduced to his mother-in-law: "Mother, this is Baokang. You should have met him at the banquet, Qiusheng's friend."

  Yingniang pursed her lips, glanced at Qian Baokang and nodded, then said to her son-in-law: "I know him well, let's talk a few words, Xinyu and go to see Qiuyan and Ping'er."

  Qiuyan was originally riding in a carriage with her, but after walking for a while, the nanny suddenly became very dizzy, so Qiuyan took the maid to take care of Ping'er in the carriage.

  Fang Xinyu was taken aback when he heard what his mother-in-law said, and then nodded with a smile in response: "I see, mother, you can talk."

   After finishing speaking, he patted Baokang, smiled and turned to go to the front carriage.

  Watching her son-in-law leave, Yingniang didn't get out of the carriage, but looked at him through the window, and asked lightly, "Mr. Qian, if you have anything to say, just talk here."

  Hearing her tone, Qian Baokang recalled her gentle voice when he was drunk yesterday, with a bit of bitterness in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Aunt Ying, I have never had a chance to see you again. I was young and ignorant, I'm sorry."

  Yingniang glanced at him, looked away, and said in a calm voice: "If you came here to apologize, then I accept it. We have to hurry, let's go back."

Qian Baokang heard the tightness in his chest, bit his lips and lowered his eyes and said, "Aunt Ying, it was my fault at the beginning, don't blame my father, yes, it was I who stabbed my wrist with a knife, and the blood flowed all over the place. I threatened my father with my own life, so my father didn't follow you and leave, I'm sorry."

  Yingniang looked calm, but the palms under the sleeves kept tightening, she said calmly: "It's nothing, no matter what your purpose is, my aunt is doing well now, so there is no need to mention these things."

  After speaking, Yingniang lowered the curtain.

Seeing this, Qian Baokang fell to his knees with a thud with red eyes, choked up and said, "Aunt Ying, my father is true to you. The second day after you left, my father's hair turned gray most of the night. Until now, I have dyed my hair once every three days to cover my gray hair, and my family’s business has plummeted. My father went to the pier all day to watch the passing passenger ships, but he waited for three months without waiting for the person he wanted to see. Later, I often watched him drinking at night , and sometimes cry..."

  Yingniang's eyes froze, she clutched her sleeves tightly to keep the tears from falling, her mouth was tightly pursed and she didn't speak.

"I said this not to ask Yingniang to forgive me. I just want to ask for a chance for my father. It is my son's unfilial piety. I shouldn't ruin my father for my own selfishness. He has already paid for me in this life. Too much...I want to correct the mistakes I made."

  Qian Baokang fell to his knees with a plop, and kowtowed three times to the people in the carriage. When he raised his head, his forehead was covered with blood.

Yingniang heard the movement, opened the curtain and said: "You child, what are you doing! I have forgiven you, you don't have to do this, and as for the affairs between adults, it is not your turn to intervene as a child .”

Hearing her anxious voice, Qian Baokang thought of the warm embrace when she hugged him yesterday. Tears welled up in his eyes, and he knelt down and made a big gift, praying, "Auntie, I really know I was wrong. It's me, a **** who has brought so many people into trouble..."

If he could have accepted it earlier, he would have a warm mother, a sister, and more relatives, but he was so messed up that he almost broke up his family, causing his father and aunt Ying to live. suffering.

  Yingniang tugged at the curtain, her eyes were already red, the words of refusal were on her lips, and she could cut everything if she said it, but she couldn't say it right now.

  The movement here made Qiuyan and Fang Xinyu, who were in the carriage in front, come over.

   "Mom, what happened?"

   "Hey, Baokang, what are you doing!"

The two asked one after the other, Fang Xinyu came over with a puzzled face, bent down to help Qian Baokang up, but Baokang shook his head crying bitterly, and said with a painful expression: "Aunt Ying, I know wrong…"

   Qiuyan frowned upon seeing this, covered Ping'er's eyes, and asked the servant girl to take her to the front carriage, Ping'er was still scared by Xiao Mo.

   "This," Fang Xinyu looked at the person in his hand like this, looked at his mother helplessly, and said softly: "Mother, why don't you let him get up first."

  Yingniang closed her eyes, her lips trembled slightly, and she was just about to speak.

   Qiuyan on the side looked serious, frowned and said softly: "Mr. Qian, please respect yourself and don't disturb my mother."
