MTL - Court Marriage-Chapter 61 Misunderstand
"So he... doesn't know?"
Gong Zhuoliang read Shi Kang's farewell letter carefully, and looked at Qiao Yingze, who was also speechless, embarrassed. They always thought that Shi Kang knew about the two of them, just as they knew about his relationship with Pingxi, but both parties Tacitly didn't say anything about it.
Furthermore, because Shi Kang always looked calm and composed, he took good care of the two of them. So they are very close to Shi Kang on weekdays. Even though they may pay a lot of attention in front of others, they have never regarded Shi Kang as an outsider. Now I know that the boy didn't know about it at all, and he was sullen and injured for a long time. .
"It turns out that Big Brother Shi has misunderstood me for so long..."
Qiao Yingze handed the letter to Gong Zhuoliang with a wry smile. He couldn't hide his lowness. Although he asked himself that he had done nothing wrong, he still felt ashamed and embarrassed about Shi Kangxin's words of advice that could not hide his disappointment. In his eyes, he was actually a shameless person who relied on his wife to support the door, and also got his hands on his brother-in-law.
"It's also our negligence. We didn't notice Brother Shi's mood, and we don't know where others are now. It's serious to catch up and explain it earlier."
Because of their closeness to Shi Kang, Qiao Yingze and Gong Zhuoliang called him Big Brother Shi in private, but Shi Kang was too responsible, so he mostly called himself a servant. Thinking of Shi Kang's respect and loyalty to him all the time, Qiao Yingze felt very stuck in his heart, and the feeling of being misunderstood by those close to him was really uncomfortable.
"If you are not busy chasing, you will not leave Pingxi for ten miles. Let him hang for a few days. This person is not very righteous. Just because of our friendship for more than a year, if you have doubts or ideas, you will not ask them clearly in person. Do you understand? It's just that we feel that we have done something wrong, and we should persuade us when we are brothers. Does it make sense for him to make trouble like this?"
Gong Zhuoliang was not angry at first, and he thought it was funny when Shi Kang was stupid, but when he saw Qiao Yingze's grievance and loss, he felt uncomfortable. Shi Kangming knew that Qiao Yingze was a scholar who cherished his reputation, and he still treated him like this. Stabbed a knife in the heart, even if there is no malicious intention, this emotional intelligence is really too low!
"Big Brother Shi is not malicious. Since we treat him as a friend, we should take the initiative to solve this misunderstanding. It is sincere."
Qiao Yingze saw Gong Zhuoliang's temper, but he didn't want to lick his wound, so he pulled him to sit beside him, smiled and comforted him.
Speaking of which, Shi Kang is indeed a person who values love and righteousness over power. Qiao Yingze and Gong Zhuoliang have relied heavily on him for more than a year, but Shi Kang does not take any power. These old people looked at that each Zhuangzi industry is also responsible for each person, and even the housekeeper and the servants of the various industries, he also found a few appropriate hospital managers, and he only adjusted and uploaded them in the middle. If he doesn't take advantage of anything, there is no one in the whole government who does not admire him.
"He is not malicious, but he has never regarded us as his own, otherwise how could he leave so easily?"
Gong Zhuoliang remembered Shi Kang's proper arrangement on the letter, and found that the lack of him in the house did not affect the operation at all. It felt as if the modern large enterprise had just lost an assistant general manager... It can be seen that Shi Kang From the beginning, I had no sense of belonging to this family, I just thought I was working for Qiao Yingze.
Just like Qiao Yuanyin is a fan of Ping Xi, Shi Kang also regards Qiao Yingze as an idol, so after finding out that Qiao Yingze is not as 'perfect and noble' as he thought, he groaned in grief, and then continued to walk his own way. Road gone.
Although he knew that his thoughts were extreme, Gong Zhuoliang was unhappy in his heart, and he didn't bother to say good things for Shi Kang.
"Zhuo Zhuo, Brother Shi is not a merciless person, we all know that, if it weren't for the hard work of Brother Shi over the past year, how could we have such a stable and comfortable life now, he must feel uncomfortable now. , Since you know it's a misunderstanding, let's get together and talk about it, you don't have to hurt your feelings for this matter."
The more Qiao Yingze persuaded Gong Zhuoliang, the darker his face became, and he knew that he was out of anger. After all, Gong Zhuoliang sincerely treated Shi Kangping as a friend, and the discomfort in his heart was much more than his own.
"That can't be done so easily..."
Gong Zhuoliang has always been a person who does not suffer, but now he is not happy, and he has to make the culprit pay back double.
"Zhuozhuo, what are you going to do?"
Seeing Gong Zhuoliang's wicked smile, Qiao Yingze knew that he didn't have a good idea, but out of annoyance with Shi Kang, Qiao Yingze decided to watch by himself this time.
"Tomorrow we will go to the East Mansion to see my grandmother and say that I want to learn the piano, please come to the mansion to stay for a while, and there are many happy events there, and his residence is in the garden, I am afraid that it will not be peaceful, it is better to wait for it after the year. When the side is quiet, I will send it back, and as for whether to send it or not, I will talk about it."
Gong Zhuoliang leaned on the couch and tapped lightly on the couch table with his fingers. He was considering all aspects in his heart. Since he scored his home, he had plans to take Pingxi and leave the East Mansion, but it was because Pingxi was in the name of Master Qiao. Her concubine was sent by a county king, so it was inconvenient to ask for someone directly, but they also veiled the old lady's attitude. She didn't look down on a 'player' like Ping Xi at all, and she felt deeply. He is a curse, and it's also because the Prince's Mansion is not good at banishing people, but whenever outsiders enter or leave Qiao's house, there will be special servants to lock the gate of Pingxi's courtyard...
Therefore, Gong Zhuoliang felt that the old lady would be happy to accept his request, but there was no good reason to mention it some time ago, so Gong Zhuoliang didn't ask Pingxi, but now he can just use the marriage of his younger brothers and sisters to say, after all If Yi Pingxi's appearance is really being missed by someone, it is the Qiao family who suffers.
Although Gong Zhuoliang can't risk his offending the county prince and involving his family, he should be free, but it's always good to do his best to make him live a more comfortable life.
"Don't bully Big Brother Shi too much, he is a real person."
As soon as Qiao Yingze heard it, he knew Gong Zhuoliang's plan. The grudge in his heart was gone, but he felt a little sympathetic to Shi Kang.
Although they don't know how Shi Kang and Pingxi get along, they still think that Shi Kang is entangled with Pingxi. easy.
"Didn't he say that we will forget each other in the rivers and lakes from now on? Then don't think it's so easy to enter the gate of the West Palace again."
I was wondering if I should keep a few vicious dogs in the yard to prevent stones. After all, the few I have now are familiar with Shi Kang, but Gong Zhuoliang touched his chin and gave up. There is no rabies vaccine in this era. It's too dangerous to bite someone by mistake.
"What you think is wishful thinking, but it's a pity that he may not be willing to come. I always feel that he stayed in the East Mansion like this, not simply because he accepted his fate."
Although he didn't want to attack Gong Zhuoliang's enthusiasm, Qiao Yingze still had to say objectively that Gong Zhuoliang's starting point was good, but he should have asked Pingxi's wishes first, and don't do bad things with good intentions.
"I know, I will ask him what he means first."
Gong Zhuoliang felt that Pingxi would agree to leave with him...
When XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX was in Qiao's East Mansion.
Because I got the chess score from Qiao Yuanyin today, since Gong Zhuoliang left, Pingxi locked himself in the room and copied it from memory, even Xuehua told him to have dinner, ignoring it until he finished silently writing some of his favorite pieces. , Only then did I feel hungry, and I was about to ask Xue Hua to set the meal, when I saw a familiar figure turned over to the table and sat down after the window shook lightly... with a strong aroma of wine.
"…"
The pen that hadn't been put down was pinched again by Ping Xi. He frowned slightly when he looked at the man's back, and then, as usual, pretended that he didn't exist, and concentrated on writing another song that he didn't like very much.
There are usually only two possibilities for Shi Kang to turn his back to Pingxi, one is his protective posture when facing the enemy, and the other is that he is in a bad mood, and he is afraid that Pingxi will be impatient to see his face, so he turns his back on whether to provoke Ping or not. Sorry to be bored.
After a while, Xue Hua laboriously went upstairs with a large food box and a jar of Liuguo wine, looked at Shi Kang lying on the table, and looked at Ping Xi, who wrote the score by dictation, the little girl gently After putting the food and two sets of tableware in the food box, he closed the door lightly and went downstairs to boil water.
Ping Xi's song is half-written, and it is difficult to connect to the rest of the content when it is disconnected, so he wants to wait until he has written the complete song before going to dinner, but he has just written two strokes, and Shi Kang 'slaps' over there. Ping Xi's brows jumped as he patted the Kaifeng mud and poured the wine, and the coherent tune was interrupted. Ping Xi had to recollect what he had seen before writing to continue.
It's a pity that Pingxi's song hasn't finished writing a section, and there is another 'dang bang' from Shi Kang's side. It turned out that the chopsticks hit the plate without holding it. Pingxi's thoughts were interrupted again. The writing hand tightened, but Shi Kang was still ignored, and he rearranged the song again. He wanted to continue along where he left off, but he couldn't find two notes. He was trying to find the notes with the piano next to him. On the other side, he was lying on the table as if he had lost his strength, and the wine glass in his hand fell down, which was blocked by the table, but finally rolled to the ground and broke into several pieces.
"…"
After all, his thoughts were all broken, and he couldn't remember the tune that followed. Ping Xi looked at Shi Kang with his back to him, and narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that today is a good thing...
"Pingxi, I have left the West Palace, and I can't bring the manuscript to show you in advance."
With his back to Pingxi, Shi Kang put one hand on the wine jar and the other on his face, lying on the table. His clear eyes were blurred, and the expression of pressing the corner of his mouth rarely showed a childish grievance. It's just that Ping Xi behind him couldn't see his expression.
"why?"
Ping Xi, who was still a little impatient at first, changed her expression when she heard the words, and finally answered, not letting Shi Kang play a one-man show by himself again.
"I admire Mr. Qiao very much. He is a real gentleman in terms of knowledge and virtue. I also admire Young Master Gong, but he has such vision and courage at such a young age, and they are all very kind to me, really good. , did not treat me as a person at all, I want to toast them, do it!"
Lying on the table and humming lazily, Shi Kang was already drunk by seven or eight points. It is said that the six fruit wine is not a strong wine, but I don't know what the mixing of these kinds of fruit produces, and the effect is comparable to a drug. , a few cups can make people intoxicated. With Shi Kang's drinking capacity, he was already drowsy now, so he forced himself up and sat up straight, holding the wine jar proudly and roaring lowly.
"Put down the wine jar and talk about the key points."
Ping Xi saw that he was going to drink the whole altar, and hurriedly stopped it coldly. According to his drinking method, it is possible to get drunk for two days.
"Oh... I also respect Mrs. Qiao. I mean Young Master Gong's sister. Although I haven't met her a few times, I know that she is a very good person. She and Mr. Qiao are so affectionate, but now, Mr. Qiao is not. With Young Master Gong... How can they be worthy of the madam when they do this? I can see that the adults and Young Master Gong are also true feelings, but I really can't agree with their actions, but I also know that I have no right to say anything..."
Although Shi Kang's consciousness was already a little confused, his awareness of listening to Ping Xi's words had penetrated deep into his instincts, so after Ping Xi's order, he obediently put down the wine jar, and his straight body also swayed slightly. , but still relying on the last trace of consciousness to hold on and not fall down completely.
"so?"
Listening to Shi Kang's explanation, who had a big tongue, Ping Xi understood the crux of the problem, so some itchy fingers touched the jade inlaid paperweight on the table, but after hesitating, he replaced it with a thicker volume.
"So? So... I'll take care of everything and leave a letter saying I'm leaving... um..."
His consciousness was about to dissipate. Shi Kang just propped his eyelids and tried to raise his head to wake up. Suddenly, something hit the back of his head with great force. The unsuspecting Shi Kang was hit on the table with his forehead. fell asleep...
"You elm lump, are all stones in your head?"
Withdrawing his hand, he lifted his clothes and stood up. Ping Xi pressed his throbbing forehead, walked to the opposite side of Shi Kang and sat down. After eating dinner on his own, he set up Shi Kang and threw the person on the couch. , pulled the quilt and covered it, then pulled the bell to let the snow painting waiting outside the door come in to clean up, and turned into the inner room to bathe and sleep.
"Ugh…"
Xue Hua was heating water in the bathroom just now, so he didn't know the situation in the room, but after coming in, he habitually looked at the couch. Seeing that Shi Kang was sleeping there, he shook his head like a little adult and sighed. Brother Xindao Shi pretended to be drunk and stayed in the son's house hundreds of times? Don't you know how to change tricks or something?
Xue Hua mourned and mourned, took off her shoes and covered the quilt for Shi Kang, then tidied up the table by herself, and withdrew with the big food box, thinking that she would have to eat vegan again tomorrow morning... When Brother Cishi stayed drunk, Pingxi always ordered him to be a vegetarian, so that Brother Shi, who had no love for meat, would leave on his own.
