Chapter 117 Leaving secretly
Chapter 117 Leaving secretly
In Suqi Courtyard, when Qi Minxiu arrived, Qi Yue was just about to leave, but when he saw him coming, he turned back.
When these two ancestors appeared in the same frame, Xiao Mo felt a pain in her head.
As she expected, Qi Minxiu walked to the bedside jealously and occupied the seat closest to her.
Xiao Mo looked at him, suppressing her smile: "How about you take off your shoes and lie down with me?"
Qi Minxiu responded reflexively, and then realized that she was interrupting him.
Qi Yue stood aside and couldn't help laughing: "Is your butt that big? You squeezed A-Mo in when you sat on the edge of the bed."
Qi Minxiu was unhappy with what Qi Yue said and turned to glare at him: "Why do you care about me?"
After arguing with him, he turned around and looked at Xiao Mo with a worried look.
"Amo, I've spoken to my father. I was indeed inconsiderate about the ghost marriage, but he promised to hold a grand wedding for us once this matter is over."
Xiao Mo raised the corner of her mouth in satisfaction and nodded her chin gently: "Then let's do as the emperor wishes."
Qi Yue stood behind them and gave a cold smile where they couldn't see.
"Don't be too happy too soon, everything will change faster than tomorrow."
After saying this, he changed his expression and walked up to Qi Minxiu, looking down at him: "Go away, this is my seat."
"It's funny. When did this place become your territory?" Qi Minxiu confronted him without hesitation.
Without saying a word, he reached out and pulled his arm: "First come, first served, understand? Since you came last, you should sit on the side."
"You came first, but didn't you leave just now? When you came back, you were already after me."
Xiao Mo closed her eyes in annoyance and looked at them speechlessly: "Can you be any more childish?"
The two stopped pushing each other and turned to look at her at the same time.
She looked towards the door and called out softly, "Come here, bring the same chairs for the two princes."
Xiao Mo emphasized the word "same" and said it specifically for Qi Yue and Qi Minxiu to hear.
I thought that would be it, but they started arguing again over other trivial matters.
"My Suqiyuan is really lively today." Xiao Mo sighed with a smile on her face.
As he spoke, Shen Yun quickly walked in from the door holding a stack of white things.
"Please forgive me, Miss. I didn't ask Madam for it, in case she knew you were injured and worried.
But I went out and looked around but couldn't find any place that sells corsets.
I heard that the embroiderer on West Street can embroider very quickly, so I went to ask her to embroider one for you. She said this kind of fabric is elastic and won’t hurt…”
She glanced at the people in the house and braked in time.
Qi Minxiu and Qi Yue didn't understand what she was trying to say. When they heard the word "hurt", their expressions suddenly changed: "Won't hurt what?"
Shen Yun glanced at them both with embarrassment and whispered, "It won't hurt your breasts..."
After saying these words, she blushed and hurriedly walked to the bed with her things.
Xiao Mo took the thing without changing her expression, opened the corset and took a look: "It's made very tightly."
Shen Yun didn't understand why she insisted on having this kind of bra that was made into half a piece of clothing, and asked her with her head tilted.
"If you want to bind your breasts, you can use ordinary cloth. But why do you want to bind your breasts, miss?"
Xiao Mo touched the material of the corset and explained, "If you want to dress up as a man and restrain your chest, you can just wrap some white cloth around it, but I want this thing to stabilize the sternum."
Fixing the sternum? The people in the room frowned at each other.
Qi Minxiu walked over with a puzzled look on his face, picked up the thing in her hand and looked at it: "Sternum fixation? This is it?"
Xiao Mo snatched the corset away in a bad mood: "Although it can't help me recover quickly, it can prevent me from pulling on the wound."
She turned her back, took off her coat, and looked sideways at the people in the room: "Don't leave yet, do you want to see me change?"
Qi Yue's expression changed slightly. He coughed lightly, pulled Yuan Mu over and turned around.
Qi Minxiu paused with his hands in the air, pulled the corners of his mouth uncomfortably, walked away and turned around.
After changing into the corset, Xiao Mo felt that the pain in her heart instantly eased a lot, as if the loose bones were tightened all of a sudden.
She sat up and moved her arms, scaring the two men so much that they ran over like catapults.
"What are you doing?! Don't move."
Xiao Mo originally wanted to get up and walk around, but when she saw Qi Minxiu's reaction, she immediately gave up.
She retracted her feet and lay back on the bed, facing the inside of the bed: "I'm tired and want to sleep, Yun, please see me out."
Qi Minxiu wanted to say something, but just as he moved, he was stopped by Qi Yue: "She said she wanted to rest, didn't you hear her?"
Qi Minxiu pulled his hand back unhappily: "Then Amo, you should have a good rest. I will come to see you tomorrow."
Xiao Mo responded softly, and Shen Yun walked forward and gestured to them to come in.
As soon as Qi Yue and Qi Minxiu left, Murong Shu rushed to Xiao Mo's room.
In fact, she had come here once before, but was stopped by Yuan Mu, who said that Qi Yue had something important to discuss with Xiao Mo, so he let her go.
When she entered the room, she saw Shen Yun helping Xiao Mo sit up.
Murong Shu walked over with a worried look on her face, took her hand and sat down next to her: "Mo'er, what's wrong with you? Not only have you lost weight, but your face is also pale."
Xiao Mo retracted her hand and touched her cheek: "Is there?"
"Did you get hurt so badly when you fell off the cliff that you've developed this underlying illness?"
"No, I just didn't get enough rest these days."
Murong Shu frowned tightly and helped her tidy up the loose hair around her ears with concern.
"I'm already very happy that you can return safely. Take good care of yourself. I'll go make you some lotus seed porridge."
After saying that, Murong Shu stood up, told Shen Yun to take good care of her, and hurried to the kitchen.
Ever since she moved back into the Prime Minister's Residence, Qi Yue and Qi Minxiu often came to visit her.
Qi Yue is the crown prince and has to help the emperor manage state affairs. Naturally, he doesn't have as much time as Qi Minxiu, but he always stays for half a day every time he comes.
After three months of recuperation, Xiao Mo felt that she was almost recovered and planned to take Shen Yun on a long trip.
She originally wanted to tell Qi Minxiu, but thinking about the turmoil in the court at that time and that Qi Minxiu, as a prince, had a lot of things to do, she didn't tell him.
He just left a letter on the desk in the room.
