Chapter 559 Missing

   In front of Mrs. Deng, Shao Mingyuan bowed deeply: "I just stained your eyes, the junior apologized to you."

   Mrs. Deng looked at the young man who saluted her with a live geese, and said with a smile, "Come in."

   The black lacquer door slowly closed, blocking the sight of the people watching the fun.

   Shao Mingyuan walked inside with Mrs. Deng.

   "For today's matter, I would like to thank Lord Hou for helping."

   Shao Mingyuan's tone was humble: "The old lady's words will kill the younger generation. Marriage is the best way to forge two surnames. In the future, the affairs of the house will naturally be the affairs of the younger generation."

   He said, his footsteps paused, and his eyes fell on the corridor not far away.

  The vermilion lacquer column reveals a plain skirt.

  The man's eyes became eager.

   For some unknown reason, the two of them saw each other from time to time, and even spent several months together day and night, but he missed them very much after being separated for a while.

  In the courtyard of Li's house, he could not help but sway in his heart when he saw the girl he was thinking about quietly looking at him from behind a pillar not far away.

   Looking at the young man who was holding the two geese and couldn't move but smirked, Madam Deng coughed lightly and said with a stern face, "Master Hou, come in and drink tea."

  Shao Mingyuan came back to his senses in a jiffy, his ears flushed red, his face tried to look serious, he hugged the live geese and walked forward.

   Mrs. Deng quietly curved the corners of her lips.

   She could see that this young Marquis had a deep affection for the three girls, so she could feel at ease for the time being.

  Qi Da Fei, she has always been worried that the third girl would be wronged when she married into the Hou Mansion. Even if her family wanted to contribute, how would the ants shake the tree?

   Mrs. Deng's heart was settled, she winked at Qingyun, the maidservant.

  Qingyun nodded knowingly and quietly went to Qiao Zhao's place: "Three girls, the old lady is not worried about the eldest madam, I want you to go back and accompany you."

   "Got it." Qiao Zhao nodded lightly, glanced at the tall and straight figure who disappeared at the door, turned and walked towards Yahe Garden.

Of course she understood what her grandmother meant. No matter how she usually met with Shao Mingyuan, now it was the man who came to ask for relatives. As a girl who had not left the cabinet, she was naturally inappropriate to show her face. She was so cheeky and secretly ran to see the man without being caught by the elders. It is not easy to slap back.

  Qiao Zhao lowered his eyes, his thick eyelashes trembled.

   She just heard that Ah Zhu said that she saw him drunk and uncomfortable that day, so she couldn't help but come to see, she didn't miss him...

   "Girl, be careful—" Azhu pulled Qiao Zhao behind him.

   Miss Qiao bumped into the door frame, rubbing her reddened forehead and regaining her senses.

  Cough, she really doesn't want him!

  Azhu lowered her head and snickered, and Qiao Zhao gave her a sideways glance.

  Azhu quickly put away her smile, cleared her throat and asked, "Girl, what kind of dishes does General Shao like to eat? Do you want your maid to tell the big kitchen?"

   "He will eat whatever the big kitchen does." Qiao Zhao said with a sullen face.

   After a while, Miss Qiao let out a low cough: "I remember that the sauerkraut and white meat I ate two days ago were good, let's go and tell the big kitchen."

Shao Mingyuan once told her that after leaving the capital for seven or eight years, he has long been accustomed to the food in the North, especially in the winter when the dripping water turns into ice, and he comes with such a pot of sauerkraut and white meat. Sweat on the forehead, comfortable and happy.

  Azhu pursed her lips and said with a full smile: "The maid is going now."

   After Ah Zhu left, the room became quiet, Qiao Zhao hugged the pillow and rubbed it, feeling mixed emotions.

  Before, she and Shao Mingyuan set up a marriage since childhood, and the future has become a foreseeable thing, and there is not much expectation for it. But now, she really has the anxiety and expectation that she will start a new life.

   As expected by Qiao Zhao, Mrs. Deng was very satisfied with Shao Mingyuan's practice today, and she enthusiastically kept him for dinner.

   Soon the steaming sauerkraut and white meat was brought to the table, and Shao Mingyuan saw the corners of his mouth lightly raised. He ate most of the pot of sauerkraut and white meat without using a few chopsticks for the other dishes.

   Mrs. Deng looked worried.

   If you can eat meat like this, you will gain weight in the future!

   The young general reluctantly left the Loei Mansion with a full meal.

   "General, those two **** have already been brought under control, but after interrogation, they don't know the people behind them."

   "Don't know?" Shao Mingyuan rubbed his stomach lightly, his eyes clear.

   I seem to be eating a bit too much, so I need to fight a few sets of punches later.

   "Yes, they said that the other party never disclosed their identities and only gave them a sum of money."

   This is not surprising to Shao Mingyuan.

   The other party found two street scoundrels to act, and they played the abacus in the aftermath, and there was little hope of asking useful things from the two thugs.

Shao Mingyuan's expression was calm, but his eyes were full of anger, and he said lightly: "There is no impermeable wall in the world, the key is whether Hua's mind is enough. Continue to check, when did they meet, where did they meet, and the other party's appearance and characteristics, Or whether other people saw it at the meeting place, in short, don't miss any clues, and be sure to find this person out for me."

   Killing one example to a hundred, he wants those people to think of humiliating Zhaozhao in the future, and he must first check his own ability!

   Gu Changbo's mansion.

  Li Jiao looked at Du Feixue who was blushing with concern: "Cousin Feixue, are you okay?"

  Du Feixue leaned against the bedpost and said feebly: "It was all the **** surnamed Yang who caused me to fall into the water and catch the cold. As a result, their family just pretended to send someone to send some supplements. Hmph, I think others are rare!"

  Li Jiao smiled comfortingly, but pouted in his heart.

  Cousin is still so self-willed. Since she has caught the cold, she needs to take good care of her. If she has to be called over, she has no idea what to do if she infects her?

  Thinking of this, Li Jiao was quite uncomfortable.

   Even if it is the grandfather's family, it is good to her on weekdays, but in fact it is nothing more than that.

  If her mother was still alive and Du Feixue had caught the cold and wanted to invite her as a guest, her aunt would definitely not allow it.

   In the end, no one stood up for her, and others naturally ignored her.

   "Cousin Jiao, your house has been very lively these past two days, right?"

   "I spent all day embroidering in the house and didn't pay attention."

   "Hmph, the surnamed Yang kicked me into the water. To put it bluntly, it was because of Li San. As soon as I thought of Li San, that bitch, I wanted to push her into the water to get out of this bad breath." Du Feixue's expression was hideous.

   "Cousin, don't think like that. My third sister will soon be the future Mrs. Hou. Offending her won't do us any good."

   "Cousin Jiao, you are the eldest daughter of the Li family after all, how could you swallow your anger towards her daughter, a stepchild?"

Li Jiao bowed his head and smiled bitterly: "What can I do? My cousin didn't see it. Recently, my grandmother suspected that I wasn't sincere to my third sister, so she didn't allow me to go out. It's because of your blessing that I can go out this time. I'm afraid. After the new year, my grandmother will not allow me to come to pay New Year's greetings."

  Du Feixue got angry when he heard it: "Cousin Jiao, don't worry, if the Li family doesn't allow you to go out after the new year, I'll ask my grandmother to come forward!"

  Li Jiao's heart finally settled, and he pursed his lips and smiled.
