Chapter 672: Once you send someone away, they won’t come back (26)
"Hongdou, don't ever have such thoughts again. The Xu family and the Sun family have never given up on finding your family's whereabouts for so many years." Xiao Chenliang couldn't help but reach out his hand again and stroked Xiangsi's hair, as if he was treating a rare treasure with great care.
“Thinking back, when your grandfather learned that your family was missing, he was so sad that his hair turned white overnight.
In fact, if you could delay your departure for a few days at that time, you might have met the guards who came to pick you up.
But fate always plays tricks on you. The guards chased you all the way, but every time they arrived at a place, they always passed you by.
As soon as you left, they arrived. When they were about to reach Yuening's territory, they suddenly lost all news of you.
Now that I think about it carefully, it must be because you went in the opposite direction at that time. "Speaking of this, Xiao Chenliang couldn't help but sigh softly.
Hearing this, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on Xiangsi's delicate little face. She widened her big, watery eyes and asked in disbelief, "Grandfather... would actually be like that?"
"But it wasn't just your grandfather who was like that. Even your grandparents were grief-stricken and extremely sad at the time!" Xiao Chenliang felt that he should tell Xiangsi everything about this matter so that she could understand the cause and effect. "Especially your grandmother,
She has always been resentful about this matter, and even lived in a separate house from your grandfather for several years.
It's just because she always feels that if your grandfather hadn't agreed to let your parents go to Jiangnan, then all these misfortunes might not have happened at all. So, you can rest assured!"
After hearing what Xiao Chenliang said, Xiangsi's heart was filled with mixed emotions.
She bit her lip and said, "It turns out that the elders in our family care so much about our family."
Xiao Chenliang patted her shoulder and said, "It's all right now, you're back. When things here are settled, I'll take you back to the capital. You can go back to the Xu family or the Sun family as you wish."
"Yeah!" Xiangsi nodded, "Thank you, Brother Muto!"
When Xiao Chenliang wanted to say something, the boss of Wangchunlou was already waiting outside the door. He said tentatively: "Master, Liang Huaixin has been disciplined and behaved himself, you see!"
"After he faints, carry him to the Liang family's carriage." Xiao Chenliang's voice suddenly turned cold. He knew that he could no longer reminisce with Xiangsi. "Hongdou, it's up to you whether you sit in the carriage or on the shaft. Anyway, the man has fainted and there's nothing you can do!"
Then he took the eight-treasure box next to him and said, "Have you finished eating the candies that Hongdou gave you last time? Take some more! Once you finish eating them all this time, I can take you home."
Xiang Si touched the bag around her waist, shook her head and said, "Brother Mu, no need, I still have candy! This candy is too precious, it would be bad if it was seen by the people in the Liang Mansion."
"Well! You'd better be careful!" Xiao Chenliang praised her like this, but when he sent Xiangsi out of the room, he could no longer control his anger.
He threw the eight-treasure box heavily to the ground, and even the teacup he had just used was swept to the ground: "Liang family, what a Liang family, how did you torture my Hongdou over the years to make her so cautious.
Just wait, once Hongdou leaves your house, I will make you pay the price!"
After Xiangsi left, Hu Zi went into the room to serve his master. After following Xiao Chenliang for so many years, this was the first time he saw the master lose his temper so badly.
Two years ago, when Xiao Chenliang's legs were injured, he did not show his emotions. Unexpectedly, he would get so angry for a little cook from the Liang family.
I’m afraid the Liang family is finished!
On the street, Xiangsi sat by the shaft of the cart as she did last time, and followed the driver to send Liang Huaixin back to the Liang family.
Mrs. Liang looked at Liang Huaixin who was being "supported" by the servants to walk back to the mansion. Her first feeling was that her son was injured: "What happened? Didn't our family already give away money? How did Huaixin get hurt?"
The coachman was outside Wangchun Tower the whole time, so he didn't know the specific situation. When he heard his master asking about it, he naturally looked at Xiangsi.
"Madam! The young master is not injured!" Xiangsi's voice was neither humble nor arrogant, "He was just drunk!"
Mrs. Liang obviously didn't believe it, but since there was a doctor in the mansion anyway, she asked someone to invite the doctor from the old lady's room to come and take Liang Huaixin's pulse.
The doctor had just arrived at Liang Huaixin's room and saw him lying unconscious on the bed. He thought he had been seriously injured, but after feeling his pulse, he was speechless. However, he still told the truth: "Your son just drank too much. He will be fine after he sobers up."
Now the embarrassed person became Mrs. Liang, and she immediately asked the doctor to be taken to Mrs. Liang's yard again.
"Xiangsi, Huaixin doesn't usually drink much. Was he forced to drink?" Mrs. Liang couldn't find anything to say, so she could only make up for it with Xiangsi.
Xiang Si had already known the reason from Xiao Chenliang, so she said calmly, "The young master didn't drink much, but in order to look good, he specially ordered a pot of Wangchunlou's signature wine. That pot alone cost ten taels of silver, and for people who can't drink much, they will basically get drunk after just one glass."
