Chapter 339 You must be the prince’s maid

Xie Su was startled, but then he laughed loudly.

 “Okay, okay, you little guy knows how to be grateful.”

 Then he waved his hand and said, "My godfather will accompany you to the ancestral hall."

 Xie Mingan was surprised.

 It is neither a day for worshiping ancestors nor a day for Qingming Festival and Winter Clothes Festival.

 When you say open an ancestral hall, just open an ancestral hall?

His father is too indulgent of Shen Ningning!

Xie Mingan frowned and decided not to follow in the nonsense.

 But after thinking about it, he couldn't help but followed them.

 In the ancestral hall, candles are bright.

 The memorial tablets of the ancestors of the Xie family are silent and solemn.

Shen Ningning knelt on the futon, holding three sticks of incense in her small hands.

She said: "My godmother, please accept Ning Ning's bow."

“Godmother, I received four pieces of jade from you today and plan to use them to save people.”

"If you know anything, please supervise my every word and deed. I will never let you down or bring shame to you."

Xie Suzhi stood behind her, his eyes flickering, as if there were faint tears.

“When the natural disaster is over in the future, I will go to your grave and kowtow to you.”

The little guy finished speaking, handed the incense to Uncle Pang, and watched him insert it into the incense altar.

 Then, holding the futon with his little hands, he kowtowed three times sincerely.

 Shen Ningning stood up and turned around.

She was surprised and said in a soft and childish voice: "Daddy, why are you crying?"

 Xie Suzhi came to his senses and quickly wiped his tears with his sleeve.

 He chuckled again and again, his tone a little bitter.

“My godfather lost his composure and made Ning Ning laugh.”

“Actually, I just thought of your godmother’s last wish, which was to find her daughter.”

“She has been looking forward to her daughter calling her mother.”

Xie Suzhi suddenly asked: "Ning Ning, would you like to call her mother in front of the tablet?"

“If she knew something, she would be very happy.”

Shen Ningning wanted to nod, but her watery eyes looked outside hesitantly.

She glanced over Xie Suzhi's shoulder and saw Xie Ming'an's lonely figure standing under a lantern at the door of the courtyard.

 Xie Mingan immediately avoided it and hid behind the courtyard door.

Shen Ningning pursed her lips.

At this time, she remembered that Xie Ming'an said that she had stolen Miss Xie's life, and she felt a bitter taste in her heart.

  She wanted to refuse, but Xie Suzhi in front of her had sincere eyes.

Shen Ningning hesitated and said, "If my godfather doesn't mind, I can..."

Xie Suzhi was extremely pleased: "Why would my godfather dislike Ning Ning? Good boy, go ahead and let your godmother be happy too."

Shen Ningning knelt on the futon again and looked in the direction of the memorial tablet.

She opened her mouth several times, but she didn't know what emotion she was feeling. It was stuck in her throat and she couldn't scream for a long time.

Shen Ningning tightly grasped the corner of her dress with her small hands, and sweat broke out on her forehead.

 A pair of watery eyes, full of unconfidence.

"Mother..." Her voice was small, timid, full of temptation and uneasiness.

 She seemed to be calling an outsider.

 The child's voice was full of confusion and confusion.

 Xie Suzhi felt both joy and pain in his heart.

His eyes were red. In order not to let Shen Ningning see it, he had no choice but to turn his back and breathe slowly. Looking up again, Xie Suzhi saw Xie Mingan looking at the bright ancestral hall with complicated eyes.

He was covered in wind and snow, standing where all the winds blew, hunting in his robes. The yearning and grief in his eyes were the same as those of Xie Suzhi?

at the same time.

 The Qi Mansion is not at peace.

Before Qi Xiuwei recovered, she was called to the main room by the old lady of the Qi family.

Her father, Mr. Qi, is also there.

As soon as Qi Xiuwei entered, she saw her mother Yu's eyes were red, as if she had cried.

 “I’ve met my grandmother.” Qi Xiuwei stepped forward to say hello.

Mrs. Qi wore a gilt-plated forehead and an emerald, which made her look extremely majestic.

 Gray hair on the temples, meticulous.

"Well," Mrs. Qi nodded and looked at Qi Xiuwei: "Weier, I have discussed with your parents just now. When you are well, I will send you to the palace in a few months to be the prince's maid."

Qi Xiuwei looked up in astonishment: "Prince...Female officer? Grandma, why did His Highness the Crown Prince ever say that he wanted a female officer?"

"At that time, your father will ask the emperor to tell you that he will put you in anyway. Your aunt has been relegated to the cold palace. Our family cannot be alone in the palace. Do you understand?" Mrs. Qi said majestically.

Qi Xiuwei felt it was really ridiculous: "But Ning Ning belongs to His Highness the Crown Prince..."

 She didn't even finish her words, Mrs. Qi had already slapped the table hard.

He scolded her harshly: "Don't mention that Shen Ningning again. She put your aunt in the cold palace, and she is the adopted daughter of the Xie family. You should remember that she is your enemy!"

 Qi Xiuwei's face turned pale, obviously frightened by Mrs. Qi's attitude.

Her mother Yu Shi quickly stepped forward and held her in her arms.

He cried and said: "Ancestor, why do you need to embarrass her? Weier is just a child. She fell into the water last time and her bones haven't healed yet."

“The Crown Prince’s daughter-in-law says that if it sounds good, she is an official, but if it sounds bad, then from now on she will be a concubine.”

Mrs. Qi snorted coldly: "Being the prince's concubine is also a noble person. It is better than marrying an ordinary person. I have made this clear to you just now. Why are you still confused?"

“It’s because you are stupid that you raise a daughter who doesn’t understand the rules. As the daughter of my Qi family, she has no ambition to win glory for the family. I’m really ashamed of my ancestors!”

Yushi's face stiffened when her mother-in-law scolded her like this, and tears flowed down her cheeks.

Qi Xiuwei also felt aggrieved. Mother and daughter hugged each other, sobbing softly, and cried together.

Mr. Qi frowned and said to Old Madam Qi: "Mother, I think it's not too late to discuss this matter slowly."

“His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in good and bad health. It may not be a good thing for us to send our daughter to the Crown Prince to be a female official.”

Mrs. Qi, however, had a firm attitude: "As long as he is the prince, our bet will be on him."

"If it weren't for your useless wives and concubines who couldn't give birth to a son for our Qi family, I wouldn't be at this age and still worry about the future of the Qi family!"

Master Qi lowered his head: "It's my son's fault."

"Hmph! Please take what I say to your heart. Since Jingchun has entered the cold palace, she will not be able to survive. The family will cut off the subsidies for her and let her fend for herself in the palace." Mrs. Qi finished speaking. , he left on crutches and was supported by the maid.

Mr. Qi did not dare to refute anything, so he could only frown and agree.

 After Mrs. Qi left, Mrs. Yu dared to wipe away her tears.

I asked Mr. Qi: "Sir, my little sister is already in dire straits in the cold palace. If we don't help her, she will..."

Mr. Qi said in a serious tone: "Let's just do what our mother says. As of now, we can't care about her anymore."

 After speaking, he glanced at Qi Xiuwei, who was crying and looking pale.

"You'd better invite a few more famous doctors to treat Wei'er's illness as soon as possible, so that I can send her to the palace as soon as possible."

"What mother said is not unreasonable. Prime Minister Xie has always been at odds with our family. If we cannot place a useful chess piece in the palace, it will be really dangerous for our Qi family."

After finishing speaking, Mr. Qi left and went to rest in his concubine's room.

 Qi Xiuwei was sent back to the room by her mother while crying.

 After Mrs. Yu comforted her, Qi Xiuwei stopped crying.

When she was alone in the room, her eyes were as red as walnuts and she stared at the bed curtain, too sad to sleep.

At this moment, two sounds of "knock-knock" were heard outside the window.
