Chapter 285: An Old Lady Makes Trouble 5

“I don’t have a grandmother,” Qi Qingyao said with a blank expression.

Steward Zhang was stunned—he could roughly understand what she was implying.

Jiang Yeqian heard what she said and thought that she had honestly forgotten about it. So, he reminded her, “Have you forgotten that Qi Boli has a mother who was recently in Qingzhou City?”

“I don’t know her, reject her,” Qi Qingyao said, playing down his words.

Jiang Yeqian, “…”

After a while, Steward Zhang reported back again. He said, “Miss, the person insisted that she is your grandmother, and she even added that you’re not being filial! Then, she started crying and making a ruckus at the gates.”

“She really went and did that?”

Qi Qingyao poured herself some tea indifferently. The edges of her eyes and brows were calm and relaxed as she continued with her needlework. “I just arrived in Qingzhou City a few days ago and already, some old lady from god knows where finds out that I’m in Qingzhou City. Not only that, she knows my specific location and had actually come to my doorstep. How interesting.”

Someone must have deliberately spread news about her.

It was the same as the other night when they had been besieged by killers sent by the various forces.

The old lady’s motive for coming was very obvious—to cause trouble.

Qi Qingyao glanced at Si Jin who was sitting beside her. Si Jin was very tall and pretty. He was also delicate-looking. “Si Jin, put on my clothes and go out to deal with this for me.”

“Ah!!” Si Jin almost fell from his chair.

Jiang Yeqian, “…”

Qi Qingyao blinked her eyes at him. Smiling rather deviously, she said, “Go out as Qi Qingyao and see what that old lady is up to.”

Si Jin pursed his lips. He had wanted to protest but then he suddenly realized that this meant Qi Qingyao was regarding him highly! She trusted him! After that, Si Jin had no more objections, agreeing immediately. Qi Qingyao asked him to randomly pick out an outfit from the cabinet. Si Jin quickly ran to her room.

Jiang Yeqian followed him into the room and realized that Si Jin had opened her wardrobe.

Jiang Yeqian’s expression twitched inexplicably underneath the mask but he went over to have a look nonetheless.

Si Jin was examining the pile of beautiful women’s clothes. He felt shy and his face was red. After hesitating for a long time, he finally pulled out a light purple, brocade robe. He saw Jiang Yeqian standing right beside him the moment he turned around.

“Why are you here?”

“Am I not allowed to have a look??” Jiang Yeqian said acidly. Glancing at the clothes in his hand, he suddenly realized something. It seemed that Qi Qingyao had not worn this outfit before, which made him calm down. He made a mental note to go back and dispose of the outfit in secret after the boy was done wearing it.

Si Jin was really tall and he was not suited to wearing women’s clothes!

The loose, broad-sleeved brocade robe turned into a slim-fitting one on him…

He also styled his hair hastily. He looked more like a little girl despite his face being bare of cosmetics.

After Si Jin fixed his appearance, he strode to the gates confidently. Steward Zhang had already been waiting there for some time. His legs nearly buckled in shock the moment he saw Si Jin.

He did not dare laugh either after he regained his footing.

They opened the gates once again.

Si Jin saw an old lady and a middle-aged woman standing together outside the door at a glance. The old lady was sprawled on the floor beneath the eaves at the gate as she began making a scene, wailing and balling.

This scene stunned Si Jin.

His head was lowered as he glanced at the old lady as she made a scene.

He crossed his arms.

Then he spoke in an elegant and calm manner.

“Who are you?”

The old lady had initially been about to cry out in joy, but when she saw that it was a tall girl clad in a light purple brocade robe with a somewhat haughty and cold demeanor who had walked out and leaned against the door, she immediately climbed off the ground.

The old lady asked, “Who are you?”

Si Jin replied coolly and unperturbed, “Qi Qingyao.”

The old lady was stunned. “You’re Qi Qingyao???”

“Yes,” replied Si Jin, his expression blank.

Jiang Yeqian was wearing his ox-head mask as he stood behind him. He cast a glance at the old lady outside the door, saying nothing.

Madam Zhang and the old Madam looked at each other, the old lady scratching her head.

Si Jin asked, “You came all the way looking for me, do you know me?”

The old lady felt a little deceived but was also somewhat unwilling to believe the current situation. “No, that’s not right. How can you be Qi Qingyao?”

“I am Qi Qingyao.” Si Jin mimicked Qi Qingyao’s appearance, raising the corners of her lips and chuckling. “Madam, for what matter have you come looking for me?”

“No…nothing.”

The old lady looked at the young girl, who was tall, beautiful, and a little bit ambiguous gender-wise, and was completely dumbstruck.

Madam Zhang thought to herself, ‘The rumors couldn’t have been wrong.’

She hurriedly pointed at Si Jin’s nose and said, “You have three children.”

“I don’t,” replied Si Jin.

Madam Zhang, “…”

Si Jin asked, “Could you have mistaken me for someone else?”

Madam Zhang pointed at the door head blankly. “But the door says Qi Mansion.”

Si Jin tilted his head but did not say anything. He just watched the two quietly.

The old lady’s face fell as Madam Zhang tried explaining herself while also feeling a little awkward. “Or, it could really be someone with the same name.”
