Chapter 1238: Look at Him!
Their father was always like this. Regardless of whether it was Shao Zhongxi or Shao Boqi, they were all used to it. No one said a word as their father lectured them.
Shao Zhongxi was still drinking tea as usual.
Shao Boqi was standing.
Duke Shao was standing, but his hands were behind his back as he paced back and forth. He would point at Shao Boqi and Shao Zhongxi from time to time, lecturing them. He was used to his second son, Shao Zhongxi, sitting there and drinking tea.
After lecturing him for a long time, Duke Shao finally ended it as usual. “Alright, alright, let’s go. You guys are tired of listening, and I’m tired of talking. I might as well count on Xue Heng instead of you guys! Look at him! I mean look at him. His wife is pregnant with two children. There must be one who looks like him!”
Shao Boqi and Shao Zhongxi came out of the study.
Shao Boqi was the first to walk out. He saw Qi Yin standing in the courtyard. She was dressed in red and was waiting for him as usual. “Zhongxi…”
She seemed to want to say something, but just as she opened her mouth, she changed the topic. After saying that, he wanted to leave first.
“His Highness the Crown Prince is here!” Someone came to report anxiously.
Shao Boqi was shocked when he heard that. He hurriedly shouted into the study. “Father! His Highness the Crown Prince is here!”
Duke Shao had just picked up his teacup to drink when he heard this. He hurriedly stopped drinking his tea and put down his teacup. He quickly brought his sons to the entrance of the manor to welcome them.
When the Duke’s wife heard this, she hurriedly put on makeup and prepared to welcome them. She also ordered that no one was allowed to go to the front without being called.
Shao Boqi had two sons and a daughter. His eldest son Shao Naicen was six years older than Xue Yan. His second son, Shao Feicen, was three years older than Xue Yan, and his daughter Shao Yucen was one year younger than Xue Yan.
Because Xue Yan had come, Shao Boqi also hurriedly got people to call his two sons over. They all went to welcome them together.
Shao Naicen and Shao Feicen got busy and obediently followed behind their father, Shao Boqi.
Although Shao Naicen and Shao Feicen weren’t strong or tall, they were still his grandsons. Duke Shao actually liked them. Although he always despised Shao Boqi, Shao Zhongxi, and Shao Shuting for being weak, he never lost his temper with his grandchildren. As he walked quickly to the door, he couldn’t help but turn around and remind his two grandsons to be careful and not to talk nonsense.
The Crown Prince wouldn’t mind, but it wouldn’t be nice if they said something out of hand.
By the time Duke Shao and the rest arrived at the main entrance, Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Xue Sifu had already alighted from the carriage. They were about to go up the steps and enter the Public House when Duke Shao and the rest quickened their pace and hurriedly descended the steps. They lifted their robes and knelt down, wanting to bow.
Xue Yan hurriedly supported Duke Shao with both hands, preventing him from kneeling down. After dismissing Duke Shao’s bow, he smiled and got the others to stand up as well. There was no need to be so courteous.
“Thank you, Your Highness.” Only then did everyone get up.
During the morning court session today, Xue Yan had already met with Shao Boqi and had even exchanged quite a few words with him. Now, there was naturally no need for him to greet him again. Instead, he got to know Shao Naicen and Shao Feicen for a bit and then introduced them to Jiang Yue and Xue Sifu.
Then, they entered the Public House.
