“Get out!” Chu Qi repeated impatiently.
Qiao’er did not expect that the general would be so rude to a woman. She had been shouted at twice and her pride had taken a blow. She quickly left after putting down the basin of water.
When Zhao Qian brought Long Yin, his two siblings, and Bao Yu to visit the South Conquering General Mansion, they saw Chu Qi standing in the courtyard, talking to the steward. A group of servants was standing behind him, divided into male and female groups.
Yaoyao said with surprise, “What is Big Bro Lil Qi doing? And why do those maids look so dejected?”
!!
Ji’er spotted Chu Qi and all her unhappiness faded away. A smile appeared on her little face as she eagerly called out to him, “Lil Qi!”
Chu Qi was standing with his back against the door, which was why he had not seen Zhao Qian and the others. When he suddenly heard Ji’er cry, he was taken aback, thinking that he must be imagining it.
He turned around immediately and saw a pretty little girl standing not far away, smiling as she looked at him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe cold expression on his face disappeared and a subtle smile appeared.
“Get rid of them immediately.” He quickly gave the instructions giving the servant’s dejected expressions a second look. He quickly walked toward Long Yin’s group.
Ji’er lifted her skirt and hurried over toward him, jumping into his arms. She hugged him tightly around the waist. “I missed you so much, Lil Qi. Did you miss me?”
Her child-like words softened the expression on Chu Qi’s face. “Yes.”
He spoke very softly, but it was enough to fill Ji’er’s heart with a warm sweetness.
“You should carry me then. I want you to swing me around.”
Chu Qi was unable to reject her request. He lifted her up, though he did not swing her around as she asked.
He carried her for only a while before putting her down. “You’re grown up now, Ji’er. You can’t play these games like you did when you were younger.”
“I’m not grown up. I’m only nine.” Ji’er pouted as she tugged his sleeve.
It was only in front of Chu Qi that she would act so childishly without holding back.
Zhao Qian and the others were used to the sight.
However, Long Yin was thinking about how upset his father would be if he saw this.
Because Chu Qi was always by her side, Ji’er never showed her childlike side to their father like Yaoyao did.
If he was being honest, he was also a little jealous of Chu Qi because his little sister had never acted this way to him either.
Feeling slightly defeated, he said sulkily, “Come over here, Ji’er!”
Ji’er turned around to look at him, “What do you want?”
Long Yin rubbed his nose and suddenly blurted, “I can carry you and swing you around.”
Ji’er stared at her big brother, who was a head taller than she was, and felt a little skeptical. “I don’t want you to. You might drop me!”
Long Yin, “…”
Yaoyao pouted. “You’re playing favorites. Why won’t you carry me and swing me around?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLong Yin darted a look at her rotund body. “You’re too fat. I won’t be able to carry you.”
Yaoyao, “…”
She was dumbstruck.
“What do you mean? I’m the same weight as Ji’er.”
“You were a catty heavier than I was last month, and you might have gained another catty or two by now.” Ji’er rubbed salt into her wound.
Yaoyao, “…”
Zhao Qian looked at the second princess emphatically and said, “Do you want me to carry you?”
Yaoyao looked at Zhao Qian’s fat body with slight disdain. “I don’t want you to. You’re fatter than I am!”
Zhao Qian, “…”
The cold atmosphere at the South Conquering General Mansion immediately became more lively because of the children’s visit.
Ji’er asked Chu Qi curiously, “Why are you keeping only the male servants and not the maids?”
“That’s right. I saw a lot of maids leaving with their bags. Their eyes were all red and they were crying as they left,” Bao Yu added.
Long Yin, Yaoyao, Ji’er, and even Zhao Qian, all looked curiously at Chu Qi.
Chu Qi said, “My salary is too low to hire so many people.”
