Travel To The World Of Ca Li
What Kind of Girl Is So Brave?
The sound of several horse-footed footprints echoing at the entrance of Lian City, the passersby stepped aside to make room for the party.
Xiu Qixuan was still sitting and speechless in the arms of Xiao Taoli who was riding a horse, occasionally he glanced at Yi Hongli who was riding a horse behind them.
It had been quite a while since Xiu Qixuan had not seen Yi Hongli, and now they were reunited because his second brother had assigned Yi Hongli to take him after what he had done to Xiu Huanran, isn't the image of her now so ugly in Yi Hongli's eyes?
Arriving at the small residence belonging to Xiu Huanran, Xiu Qixuan jumped down from the horse and intended to enter the gate of the residence first without waiting for his entourage.
Xiu Qixuan had just walked one step up
the stairs were in front of the gate of the residence but he then stopped his steps in an instant. It was Xiu Huanran who stood inside the gate of the residence and put on a sinister face with sharp gazes from both his eyeballs.
But it did not last long Xiu Qixuan continued her halted steps, she then stood in front of Xiu Huanran.
"Er'ge," He said respectfully with the etiquette of a Young Miss.
Xiu Huanran just kept silent and kept staring at Xiu Qixuan in the same way.
"Er'ge watch the condition of your body - if you fall ill - Xuan'er will grieve, The weather in Lian City begins to cool down due to the change from autumn to winter," Xiu Qixuan said attentively touching Xiu Huanran's hand and pulled him into the room in the small residence.
Xiu Huanran was silent, he did not refuse when Xiu Qixuan brought him into a closed room, because in a closed room-Xiu Huanran would freely issue his anger to Xiu Qixuan. He knew how to control himself which made him not to reprimand his little sister in public.
The room in the small residence Xiu Huanran quickly closed the door of the room and he turned to look at Xiu Qixuan who was just silent.
"Bad Girl!" Xiu Huanran's speech pulled Xiu Qixuan's ear.
"Okay, Er'ge. Let go," Xiu Qixuan said, patting Xiu Huanran's arm that pulled on his ear.
"Don't know what else to do with you?!" Eluh Xiu Huanran
"Er'ge, Pardon Xuan'er," Xiu Qixuan said looking at Xiu Huanran with a earnest gaze as if she was sincerely apologizing.
Xiu Huanran who saw and heard Xiu Qixuan's words, spontaneously distanced his arm from Xiu Qixuan's ears.
"Ehem, it turns out that a girl like you can apologize too?" Reply Xiu Huanran cleared his throat awkwardly.
Xiu Qixuan just kept quiet and snatched away, what is wrong with her? why do they always say girls are like her? Xiu Qixuan is still a normal girl in general who has fear, disappointment, annoyance, anger, happiness, and love. Xiu Qixuan was just a girl who could not show all those things, she preferred to live her life without thinking - whether her feelings were sad or happy, scared or brave.
"You shall punish me, copy the Book of Lijie five times, and not leave your room if the sentence is not finished. Reflect on your mistake," Xiu Huanran ordered, he then turned around and rushed to leave.
"Er'ge, I've apologized and you're still punishing me?" Sergey Xiu Qixuan held back Xiu Huanran's departure.
"Oh, so you're not sincerely apologizing to me after you fooled me with your words?" Asked Xiu Huanran to stop his steps.
"That's not what I mean. It's just that," Xiu Qixuan replied paused.
'Only, I'm not very good at using brushes to write.' Ringis Xiu Qixuan in heart.
Xiu Huanran heard Xiu Qixuan's paused speech, he raised his eyebrows next to demand Xiu Qixuan to finish her speech just now.
"Only, I'm not an eight-year-old who should be punished like that" continued Xiu Qixuan half-lying.
"So you're not satisfied with the punishment I've given you? Alright I'm going to say" Xiu Huanran said paused because Xiu Qixuan quickly cut off his words.
"Er'ge, I changed my mind. Copying the Book of Lijie was not so bad either," Sergey Xiu Qixuan.
Xiu Huanran wanted to reimburse the punishment and for sure he would give an unreasonable punishment, so it was better for Xiu Qixuan to agree first and later she would ask Xiao Rou for help to help her copy the Book of Lijie.
"Your work is very much in Lian City, I won't bother you anymore." Said Xiu Qixuan saluting then dashed out of the room towards her room.
He walked out of the room, intending to meet Yi Hongli and Xiao Taoli to ask her what her sister had done in the Guang Forest. Honestly Xiu Huanran was very worried about him even though his sister was guarded by Xiao Taoli, because Guang Forest was located not so far from Mount Kuang which became the border between Shen and Northern Xia.
*****
Next Day
Xiu Qixuan was reading the Book of Lijie to understand its contents, before she had only seen this book from the Head of the Housekeeper, Qi Li.
The Book of Lijie that Xiu Qixuan read discussed etiquette and some rules that a noble should have.
The Chief Housekeeper Qi Li held two Books of Jilie, one special servant of the residence and one special member of the noble family because he was someone who had to control the etiquette of the occupants of the residence.
Xiu Qixuan took a brush and intended to start copying the Book of Jilie.
Just one letter that he was sincere on the paper.he had issued a complaint, he said,
"Yeah. East or west, sleep is best." His grunt took a long breath.
"XuanXuan!" Call Xiao Rou who entered the room in a hurry.
"What's wrong? Don't shout, later if Er'ge hears you're being punished for learning etiquette again with Chief Executive Qi Li." Xiu Qixuan warned, he did not turn his head and kept copying the Book of Jilie.
"XuanXuan, your sentence is dismissed. It's best to be prepared to clear up some items since we're going back to Ping'an City," Xiao Rou explained taking out a large wooden box and filling it with some clothes belonging to Xiu Qixuan.
Xiu Qixuan stopped the movement of her brush and put down the brush with a slamming motion that gave off a loud sound,
'Takk'
"Er'ge kicked me out of here? Wasn't she so vindictive," Xiu Qixuan asked thought Xiu Huanran had sent her back because of her previous troubles.
"Second Young Master won't do that to you even if you make him angry a lot. We are back because the Deputy General will soon be married to the Prime Minister's First Daughter, Yao Yunmei." Xiao Rou replied while still doing her job of packing Xiu Qixuan's goods.
"Deputy General?" Mumbled Xiu Qixuan, as if finding the answer from his own mind he then turned dumbstruck.
"What?! The dage? Xiu Jierui?" Asked Xiu Qixuan quickly.
Xiao Rou simply nodded,
"Dage is getting married?!" Xiu Qixuan asked once more to confirm - since she had yet to believe, why was it so sudden?there must be a conspiracy he thought.
Xiao Rou nodded his head again,
"Married to my brother? What kind of girl was so brave," muttered Xiu Qixuan softly barely audibly, with a deadly sharp glare from both of her eyeballs.
Xiu Qixuan had already thought of many possible things happening, she had even expected Xiu Yue and Second Madam to do such a bad thing that forced her first big brother to get married.
"XuanXuan, don't stand up and be quiet. I'll call some silver maids to pack things and then I'll help you give you a tidy appearance" Xiao Rou said, looking at her master who was just a silent daydream.
Xiu Qixuan regained her senses from her daydream and she rushed over then said,
"Come, we gotta get back! I want to see what kind of girl actually dares to enter the Xiu Main Family,"
"Huh, if I feel that she is not worthy enough to be a part of the Xiu Family. I sent him back to the Prime Minister's residence in Anming." Xiu Qixuan uttered with burning flames from her speech and gaze.
Not willing to be so unwilling! His handsome first brother married another girl who was not known what the nature of the girl was and so suddenly. What if the girl's a spy? What if the girl has a nature that is thirsty for power and cruel?
