Chapter 312: Nothing to fear, just kids playing house
Xu Banshan thought An Qiao was teasing him, and said in a gentle voice, "Young lady, please stop teasing me. I don't have that ability."
As he was talking, Xu Banshan looked at An Qiao again, "Speaking of which, young lady, have you really never thought about it? From the stories you told, your father loved you too much, but he never mentioned your mother. Maybe you are not his child at all."
If these words were heard by the original owner, he would definitely not be happy.
But the words fell into An Qiao's ears. To be honest, she had suspected this matter ever since An Qiao came here.
From the time I can remember, for more than 10 years, I have never hit or scolded her. Although I have taken care of her in every detail, I have never invaded her privacy.
Whether it was washing the body or dressing, other girls were asked to teach me.
In addition, if Anqiao wanted to ride in a carriage when going out, Daddy would be willing to ride in the carriage. If Anqiao wanted to walk, Daddy would walk with her.
An Qiao remembered that one year during the Lantern Festival, young An Qiao threw a tantrum and wanted to sit on her father's head. Her father agreed and they endured it for the entire night. Her old injury relapsed the next day.
Daddy never said a word to An Qiao, he just smiled dotingly.
The stepmother wanted to hit her at that time, saying that she was ignorant. But the father was lying on the bed one second ago, and he stepped forward to stop the stepmother the next second.
"Did I say that you are not allowed to touch her?"
The original owner grew up with only a vague understanding of her father's doting, and had no idea how other people's fathers raised their children.
I even feel that these are what they should be.
But An Qiao did not grow up in such an environment, so when she read the original owner's memories, she was confused.
This is more like a relationship between superiors and subordinates, not a father-daughter relationship.
However, An Qiao did not find any memories other than that tall and majestic man.
To others, it might seem that he doted on Anqiao, but Anqiao always felt it was a little strange.
No matter how much you spoil a child, it is impossible for him to not get angry. He is spoiled without limit, given whatever he wants. He is never beaten or scolded, and he has never even said a word of comfort.
"I don't know either. The older I get, the weirder it seems to me. Daddy is so good to me. He doesn't seem like my daddy."
An Qiao's eyes were wandering, as if she was recalling something that happened long ago.
I don’t know. An Qiao couldn’t remember anything about the mystery of her life.
In that case, let him be. Perhaps his parents have long forgotten that they have such a child, or perhaps he was just thrown out.
Maybe my father is so good to me just because he doesn't know how to love others.
……
The next morning, Anle’s next article came out.
The story of Xu Banshan also spread naturally. In comparison, Xu Banshan's story was remembered by many people without spending any money.
Xu Banshan's influence has been growing.
Therefore, the focus of Anle's article this time is to criticize Xu Banshan.
It was said that Xu Banshan was from a restaurant in Kyoto, so the story was naturally biased towards his young lady. It was even said that An Qiao spent money, and everyone who heard the story spread it, just to make everyone forget her unfilial behavior.
An Qiao laughed out loud when she saw the article written by An Le. She thought she could use that energy to study for the imperial examination. She might not have to take up the quota for the special examination.
Anle actually sorted out all the bad things that had happened to Kyoto Restaurant from its opening to the present.
Every detail seemed to be intended to prove that the young lady was very good at sophistry and that what came out of her mouth could not be trusted.
Then he said that the young lady was very good at winning people's hearts, otherwise how could so many people gather around her to help her.
He also vividly described how several people were thrown out and ridiculed that morning.
He even hinted that An Qiaode was not worthy of his position and that he was rewarded only because of luck, and that An Qiao was accustomed to deceiving people.
There is constant moral kidnapping inside, and it is roasted on the Anqiao grill.
Anle's cleverness was also used in these areas.
He described An Qiao as an unforgivable criminal, but his words were full of pity and heartache, saying that his sister had just gone astray.
However, there are people who encourage scholars all over the world not to go to such restaurants, talking about benevolence, righteousness, and morality, and saying that they are afraid of encouraging a culture of disloyalty and unfilial piety.
In short, after hearing this, many people no longer dare to go to restaurants in Kyoto, simply because they are afraid of being criticized by people all over the world.
Scholars value their reputation the most, and this is the critical moment before the autumn examination. If this is true and is reported to the emperor, it will not be good for his palace examination.
After all, there are many cases in this world where people have watched buildings rise and fall.
……
An Qiao thought it was nothing to be afraid of, as it was just a fight between children, so she did not say anything new and just asked Xu Banshan to tell the story every day.
There are two opinions out there. One opinion is that Miss An is really pitiful, and it is understandable that she treats her stepmother and brother like this.
Another feeling is that Anle is really pitiful. He has a sister who can obviously earn a lot of money to support his studies, but he can't enjoy a single cent.
Despite the fighting outside, no one dared to act too rashly once they entered the Kyoto restaurant.
At most, it was just like the time with Young Master Luochuan. Someone said a few words in a sarcastic way, but it was harmless and An Qiao didn't care.
"Are you OK."
Yesterday, Gu Qingyun was kept in the palace for a whole day. He heard about this incident when he left the palace at night. When he rushed to the restaurant, it was already closed.
An Qiao looked at Gu Qingyun intently, and suddenly found it very funny. "Of course it's okay. What would you like to eat today, Mr. Gu?"
Gu Qingyun's face froze. He always felt that he was in a situation where the man had feelings but the woman had no interest in him.
I always feel that An Qiao treats him like a pig, as if the only reason he comes to the restaurant is to eat.
"Are there any new dishes?" Gu Qingyun had no choice but to go with the flow.
Now I feel that my previous thoughts about family background, wife and concubines were really unnecessary.
Miss An doesn't take herself seriously at all.
"Mr. Gu, do you like eating peanuts recently?" An Qiao naturally wanted to promote her peanut soup.
Gu Qingyun shook his head and nodded, "It's OK... My master loves to eat this, and he loves it very much. I have been eating it with him for a few years, and I think it's OK."
An Qiao's face suddenly became excited. Her peanut soup rice noodles had been sold for several days. Although people tried it every day, not many were sold.
"We have new peanut dew and peanut noodle soup. I'll prepare some for Master Gu."
Gu Qiming saw An Qiao's eyes full of stars and nodded helplessly. In fact, he probably also liked An Qiao's lively appearance.
