At noon, no one came to call Chang Xiaojiu for lunch.

She went to Shen's yard to see how her mother was doing, but as soon as she entered, the people in the yard looked at her as if they were looking at monsters.

The sisters born to both concubines also avoided her and didn't even call her.

He wanted to enter Shen's house, but Pang Shi, who had never left, did not let her in. Chang Xiaojiu did not listen to the advice of his maid Xiaotao before leaving the door, knelt in front of his mother's door and admitted his mistake, and turned around and returned to his own courtyard.

When it was getting dark, someone finally came over and said that the master was back and asked her to go to the study.

The marriages of the children in the family were handled by Shen, and his father Chang Guming was only responsible for nodding. Even if Chang Xiaojiu's marriage was several accidents, Chang Guming never accuses or scolded her.

But today I asked her to go to the study, and you can imagine that my father was really angry this time.

"Father." Chang Xiaojiu entered the study and realized that his father was really the only one.

"Kneel down." This is the first time Chang Guming used such a stern tone to Chang Xiaojiu.

When Chang Xiaojiu heard this, he immediately knelt honestly. Standing in the other party's position, he was indeed too much. It was normal for him to shame the Chang family again and again, and it was anger.

This father was really nice to her, so even if Chang Xiaojiu resisted kneeling, he would still kneel down.

"I will tell you honestly in this study room for you." The girl at home is more well-behaved than the boy. The daughter in front of her has been ill in bed for many years and has not been able to recover from her illness. She has not even had time to pity her.

This was the first time he scolded his daughter like this, and he couldn't bear it, but this time he really couldn't indulge her anymore.

Instructions? Chang Xiaojiu looked up at his father with guilt.

Explain the reason for repeatedly disrupting the situation? That really cannot be said!

"Father, father, what do you ask your daughter to explain." Chang Xiaojiu still decided that he could not tell the truth even if he was beaten to death.

If you don’t tell the truth, at most they think that their daughter is ignorant.

But if they honestly explained the reason, they would be even more unimaginable as her daughter, who was crazy about gaining and losing, or was possessed by evil spirits.

Seeing that Chang Xiaojiu had reached this point, he refused to tell the truth. As the prefect of Lizhou, Chang Guming, after taking a deep breath, he tried hard to keep himself calm.

He is a dignified prefect. In addition to governing the people, promoting virtuous people, deciding lawsuits, and prosecuting traitors, he can also appoint and remove his subordinates on his own. Although it is a small matter now, it is necessary to analyze and deal with it rationally.

My daughter must have something to hide, so she has to give her a chance to explain.

"You have repeatedly disrupted your marriage proposals in the past six months. Have you been in love with someone for a long time? Or have you already decided to have a lifelong decision?" Chang Guming suppressed the anger in his heart and tried to keep himself calm.

In fact, when Xiaojiu was making trouble, he had already thought of these two possibilities. Not only did he arrange someone to secretly stare at Xiaojiu, but he also sent someone to investigate.

Before Xiaojiu recovered from illness, he was bedridden in the boudoir. He was rare in his energy. He just walked around her own yard with the help of a maid, and could not bear it even if he was a little farther away.

The opposite sex she could come into contact with was her brothers, and the uncle who came to visit her.

The doctors who treated her were all very old. The servants and adult male servants could not enter the yard.

If she really has something to do with her and has a lifelong life, it should be what she has done after she has recovered.

I often go out to the street, and sometimes I can stay outside for a whole day.

The reason why I didn't care about her was because I thought that she had been bedridden for many years and could not go outside, which was really pitiful. After finally recovering, I could go outside and have a walk.

Chang Guming ordered the people from his home to follow her secretly several times.

My daughter's trajectory is also very simple. She goes to the dim sum shop on the street to buy some small snacks. When she stays at the dim sum shop, she chats with the dim sum shop's little daughter, and then goes to the teahouse opposite to listen to books. The location is also fixed and is by the window. Lunch is also used in the teahouse.

The youngest storyteller is in his fifties, so it can be ruled out.

It is even more impossible for a male guy, because Xiaojiu is a regular visitor to the teahouse and the daughter of his prefect. The teahouse owners arranged their daughters and daughter-in-law to entertain her.

I spent a little longer in the dim sum shop and I had already checked that it was her and the shopkeeper's daughter who asked about the way to cook snacks.

When I return to the mansion, I will go to the kitchen to make it myself for my family to taste.

My daughter likes Qi's teahouse to listen to books. Every time any older brother is at home, she will pester her brother to go with her, otherwise she will be the two maids around her, and she has never been with outsiders, let alone men of the opposite sex.

The maid beside her has never been out alone.

All the things she needs are reported to the manager at home and asked someone to buy them back.

Therefore, these two possibilities no longer exist.

However, she was like this again this time, and Chang Guming really couldn't think of any other explanation.

At this moment, Chang Xiaojiu really didn't know how to answer, saying yes? Then he had to say who the other party's surname was. Otherwise, since his father asked, he would never give up if he didn't get a satisfactory answer.

"You don't have to be afraid. As long as you tell the truth, your father will take care of it. If the other party is really worthy of your life, even if you marry someone, you are a young man. As long as you don't feel wronged, your father will give up his face and agree to you." Chang Guming saw his daughter's entangled appearance, and even affirmed the guess in his heart.

But I was also very upset. If I really guessed that, how could I find no clue?

After hearing these words, Chang Xiaojiu's eyes were red in emotion.

In ancient feudal society, it was really lucky to have such an enlightened father who truly considers the happiness of his children.

"Father, it's not what you think. A big marriage is about your daughter's happiness for the rest of her life. My daughter swears to you that her daughter will never be a wife and a wife. Even if she is a real wife, her future husband will only have one daughter in her life. What her daughter wants is a pair of people for a lifetime."

"Just, because of this?" Chang Guming asked in disbelief.

After a long storm, is this the answer?

Chang Xiaojiu wanted to nod, but remembered that something was wrong.

The reason I just said that I don’t want to be young and want to be together for a lifetime is because I heard my father’s questions, explained to him that I was not that kind of person and emphasized my attitude.

It is not the main reason for my repeated marriages to disrupt the situation, but how should I explain this?
