Chapter 343 Qi Lang?
Chapter 343 Qi Lang?
The next day, Xiao Siqi woke up and felt pain in her back. She moved her body a little.
"Young Master, you're awake." The personal servant, Lai Cai, was very happy to see Xiao Siqi wake up.
"How is the eldest young mistress? Is she feeling any better?" Thinking of Qu Yin's current condition, Xiao Siqi lowered his eyes, his heart filled with pain.
"Young Master, the Young Madam is a little better than yesterday, so please don't worry." Lai Cai knew that his young master was concerned about the Young Madam. Although he hadn't been inside these past few days, he had kept a close eye on her.
Oh, it's all Aunt Xu's fault. If it weren't for her, their young master and young mistress wouldn't have ended up like this, and the eldest young master wouldn't have been beaten.
"That's good, that's good." Xiao Siqi knew that Qu Yin was feeling a little better, and a smile appeared on her face.
But then he thought about his and his wife's current situation, and the smile on his face disappeared. He felt sorry for his wife, for the wife who had been with him for decades and loved him deeply.
How heartbroken she must be! Xiao Siqi couldn't help but slap himself several times, which terrified the servant.
"Young Master, what are you doing? You're still injured, why are you hitting yourself again?" Lai Cai quickly took a handkerchief, soaked it in water, and applied it to Xiao Siqi's face.
Xiao Siqi's eyes were bloodshot, her hands were clenched tightly, and she exuded an air of dejection, devoid of any vitality.
"Young Master, I know you are sad, but now that it has happened, what you need to do is to ask for the Young Madam's forgiveness, otherwise she will really leave you." Lai Cai earnestly advised.
"Will Yin'er forgive me?" Xiao Siqi murmured. He had broken his promise and failed to be with her for life. Would Yin'er forgive him?
"Yes, yes, the young mistress will forgive you. As long as you sincerely repent, the young mistress will definitely forgive you." Lai Cai wasn't really sure, but it was always right to say that, after all, there had to be hope.
"Yes, I will definitely ask for Yin'er's forgiveness." A determined light flashed in Xiao Siqi's eyes. Even if it meant death, he would ask for Qu Yin's forgiveness.
Seeing that the young master had hope, Lai Cai quickly said, "Young master, I'll go get you some medicine. You can go see the young mistress once you're feeling better."
"Okay, go ahead." With hope, Xiao Siqi was no longer as dejected as before. He needed to recover quickly so he could go find Qu Yin.
Just after Xiao Siqi finished drinking her medicine, a maid came in to report.
"Young Master, Concubine Xu says she wants to see you." The maidservant lowered her head cautiously. She knew that everything that had happened in the mansion these past few days was because of Concubine Xu. She didn't like her either, but since she was still the mistress, she didn't dare to say anything.
Xiao Siqi's previously calm expression immediately turned ugly: "Tell her to go back to her own courtyard and never appear in front of me again."
Thinking of that woman, Xiao Siqi felt utterly disgusted. If it weren't for the fact that he had been tricked into touching her, he would never have brought her back, much less have fallen out with Qu Yin and her husband.
"Yes, young master." The maidservant immediately turned and left happily.
She also didn't want Aunt Xu to see the eldest young master. It was all Aunt Xu's fault that such a good person as the eldest young mistress was now bedridden.
The maid went out and saw the frail-looking Aunt Xu standing outside. She sneered inwardly, then calmly replied, "Aunt Xu, the eldest young master said he doesn't want to see you. He wants you to stay in your own courtyard and not appear before him."
"Impossible! I want to see my husband! What nonsense are you spouting, you maid? How could my husband not see me?" Aunt Xu swayed slightly, and tears immediately slid down her cheeks like pearls.
The maid didn't expect that just one sentence would make Aunt Xu cry, but it must be said that Aunt Xu cried so beautifully, her tears like pear blossoms in the rain without a trace of disarray, only making people feel sorry for her.
Could it be that Aunt Xu got the young master to take her in by using this look? Humph, she really has some tricks up her sleeve.
“Aunt Xu, I’m not making this up. These are the young master’s exact words. I’m just relaying them.”
"I don't believe it, I want to see my husband." Aunt Xu shook her head, looking heartbroken.
"My lord, please let me in. I just want to see how badly you are hurt. You suffered such a serious injury because of me, and I want to take care of you," Concubine Xu shouted from outside, unwilling to give up.
Xiao Siqi, who was inside, frowned and was furious. Who did that woman think she was? She even got hurt because of her. She had no self-awareness at all.
“Lai Cai, go out and tell her to go back to her own courtyard and stop going crazy here.”
"Yes, young master, I'll go right away."
"Wait, tell her that 'husband' is not a term she should use." Only Qu Yin can address her as "husband."
When Aunt Xu, who was still crying outside, saw Lai Cai come out, she thought Xiao Siqi wanted to see her and was very happy.
Then Lai Cai said, "Aunt Xu, you should go back quickly. The young master wants to see you, but he is injured. Please don't disturb his rest."
Lai Cai's words were polite, but Aunt Xu wouldn't listen.
"Lai Cai, tell your husband that I only want to take care of him and won't disturb his rest." Now that Xiao Siqi is injured, it's a good time to cultivate their relationship. She believes that with her methods, she can definitely make Xiao Siqi fall in love with her.
This Xiao family is a good place. Now that she's here, she has no intention of leaving, and she will absolutely not give anyone the chance to leave. She will never go back to her old place.
"Oh, right, the young master also said that you shouldn't call her 'husband,' that's what you should be calling her."
"But my husband is my husband. If I don't call him my husband, what should I call him?"
"Then Aunt Xu can call the eldest young master the same way we do." Lai Cai knew how to annoy people.
After he finished speaking, Aunt Xu was seen clutching the handkerchief tightly in her hands, her expression almost unable to hold back.
Damn servant! She's Xiao Siqi's aunt! How can she be addressed like a servant? Does she think she's a servant too?
Just wait, once she becomes the eldest young mistress of the Xiao family, the first thing she'll do is sell off this damned servant.
“Since my husband doesn’t want me to address him that way, then I will call him Qi Lang from now on,” Aunt Xu said with a slightly shy smile.
Lai Cai was taken aback. Even the eldest young mistress had never used such an intimate term of address. If the eldest young master found out, he would be furious.
Xiao Siyue, who had just entered the courtyard, also heard what Aunt Xu had just said, and immediately felt goosebumps all over her body.
