Chapter 1 Reborn with merit
Qiao Jiaojiao was reincarnated.
As soon as she was delivered, she struggled to keep her eyes open.
Let her take a look at what kind of good family she has chosen!
Yo yo yo, this decoration is quite luxurious and antique. Why does it look like ancient times?
Qiao Jiaojiao was confused when suddenly someone carefully opened her legs, and then a congratulatory voice sounded:
"Congratulations, madam, on getting what you wanted! It's a girl!"
"Very good!"
A tired voice mixed with joy rang out, gentle and gentle, it should be her mother.
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes lit up when she heard this, oh, this family doesn't favor boys over girls, that old King of Hell is really reliable!
Qiao Jiaojiao did many good deeds in her previous life, including but not limited to charitable donations, blood donation, bone marrow stem cell donation, helping an old lady cross the road, etc.
She was stabbed to death. When she acted bravely, the gangster deflected his hand and stabbed her.
After her death, she donated her organs and saved seven more people.
Such a great holy lady was lured into the underworld, and the old King of Hell was almost blinded by the light of Qiao Jiaojiao's merit.
So with a stroke of his pen, he said, "With your merits and virtues, your life should not be cut off. I allow you to be reincarnated with your memories and enjoy a lifetime of happiness!"
Then, Qiao Jiaojiao came.
She felt someone gently washing away the blood on her body, and couldn't help but squint her eyes in comfort.
At this time, her mother's doubtful voice rang out, "Where is the master?"
"Madam, you started in a hurry just now. This servant dare not tell you. The master and the young master have gone out."
"What? What happened?"
Qiao Jiaojiao also pricked up her ears when she heard this, only to hear the nanny say cautiously:
"Madam, don't worry, it's not a big deal. It's just that the youngest daughter of the Meng family fell into the water and was rescued by the second young master who was passing by. As a result, Miss Meng woke up and started talking nonsense. The master and the eldest young master rushed after hearing the news It's over."
"I thought it would take two days for you to give birth, but I didn't expect that something happened suddenly. The servant has already passed the summons. At this moment, the master and the young masters must be rushing back."
Her mother's worried voice sounded, "How old is the Meng family's daughter? If she reaches the age to avoid suspicion, she will be in trouble."
Mammy responded quickly: "I have inquired in advance. The Meng family's daughter's name is Gu Xue. She is only ten years old this year, so she is still young."
Qiao Jiaojiao was listening with great interest, but when she came here she was suddenly startled and felt thunder rolling from the sky!
The damn old King of Hell lied to her!
We promised to be reincarnated, but ended up walking through books!
Before she acted bravely, she had just finished reading a bloody novel, an ancient romance called "The Cold-faced Prince, Please Be Pampered" which is being remade in the near future.
The heroine is a time-travelling girl, her name is Meng Guxue!
So who is she dressed as?
"That's good. Although the Meng family is a good match for our Qiao family, Diyi's child is still young and it's not appropriate to get engaged too early."
Qiao family! ?
Qiao Jiaojiao is about to faint!
There is only one Qiao family in the book, and it is the Qiao family who are loyal to the emperor, full of loyal people, and have become cannon fodder in political struggles!
my God! The end of the Qiao family is annihilation!
Moreover, the youngest daughter of the Qiao family died at the age of three. Her life is summed up in one sentence in the book!
"Ah! Old King of Hell, you'd better give me an explanation, otherwise I will overthrow your underworld after I die!"
Ding--
"Your Merit Mall is online, please check."
Qiao Jiaojiao:?
A translucent panel suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, with the four characters Gongde Mall written on it.
Qiao Jiaojiao struggled to bend her little fingers that were difficult to control and manually entered the mall.
"In view of your performance as the Holy Mother in your previous life, the mall has given you an initial merit of 100 points. Do you want to redeem it?"
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly lit up. This is the legendary system, isn't it?
"Let me see what's there!"
The pictures on the light board began to slide, and Qiao Jiaojiao saw: Light Body Talisman, Disguise Pill, Qi-holding Pill, Suspended Death Pill, Beauty and Beauty Pill, Powerful Pill...
"Wow wow wow! Goldfinger!"
Qiao Jiaojiao was dancing with joy, but when she saw the exchange points behind these elixirs, she instantly fainted.
A single disguise pill costs 20 merits, so she worked so hard in her previous life that she only earned five faces?
Not to mention the invincible thunderbolt explosive talisman, the indestructible vajra talisman, etc., the redemption points are as high as 80.
There are countless unlicensed grids at the back, and the merit points required are estimated to be frighteningly high!
Fortunately, merit can be accumulated slowly, and this merit mall can save lives at critical moments!
Qiao Jiao was silent. The old King of Hell still had some conscience, or... let's just make peace with it?
Soon, she was wrapped in swaddling clothes and delivered to Mrs. Qiao.
"Madam, are you impatient? Look at me, Miss, she is so beautiful, just like you!"
Mrs. Qiao took Qiao Jiaojiao over, and Qiao Jiaojiao immediately opened her eyes wide and looked at Mrs. Qiao curiously.
It is mentioned in the novel that Mrs. Qiao, who died young, once had the title of the most beautiful woman in the capital. Qiao Jiaojiao was extremely itchy!
What came into view was a bright and majestic face. Although she had just given birth and her face was tired, her stunning features became even more delicate.
Qiao Jiaojiao instantly transformed into a little fan girl!
【Ah ah ah! My mother is so beautiful too! This is a masterpiece carefully crafted by Nuwa! ! ! 】
Mrs. Qiao's hand shook suddenly and she suddenly looked around, her eyes dazed and shocked.
who is it? Who is talking!
[Wow, wow, this angle of death is so beautiful! Mother, you are my god! Please pass on your beauty to me! 】
mother?
Mrs. Qiao suddenly lowered her head in horror, and saw Qiao Jiaojiao staring at her intently with her dark eyes open.
[Wow wow wow, mom is looking at me! Why do you look so scared? Am I ugly? No way! 】
After hearing this, even though her heart was in turmoil, Mrs. Qiao's instinctive motherly love still made her praise:
"Our Jiaojiao is so cute, like a mother."
Qiao Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief.
[Hey, will you also be called Qiao Jiaojiao in this life? What a coincidence! In my previous life, I had no father or mother and died young. In this life, I hope to be a happy and carefree Qiao Jiaojiao! 】
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, her heart trembled suddenly.
So, was her Jiaojiao born with memories from her previous life?
No father or mother, died young...
Thinking of how hard her daughter had been in her previous life, Mrs. Qiao's heart felt soft and painful.
She is not afraid of any ghosts or gods.
Jiaojiao was born in her tenth month of pregnancy, and she was here to be her daughter and enjoy happiness in this life!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qiao did not hesitate to get close to Qiao Jiaojiao's face, and comforted her in a gentle voice: "Jiaojiao, mother's good boy, mother will definitely make you safe and happy all your life."
Qiao Jiaojiao felt the tender maternal love she had never experienced before, and couldn't help but feel happy, and she suddenly felt dependent on her.
But in an instant, her expression suddenly changed.
【etc! I remember that the cause of my mother's death was excessive worry and depression. The cause of everything was - on the day of delivery, a girl took the opportunity to climb into my father's bed! 】
Chapter 2 The whole family reads minds
Mrs. Qiao looked confused.
The cause of her death? There is a girl who wants to climb into the bed?
Qiao Jiaojiao was still trying to remember.
[Yes, I remember this passage very clearly. Because my mother had just given birth and had lingering lochia, she refused my father's stay and drove him to the study. 】
[As a result, on this night, a girl took advantage of his father's arrival to get his daughter and was very drunk, so she climbed into his bed! 】
[Although nothing happened that night, and my father executed the girl afterwards, my mother still had a knot in her heart! 】
[This is the cause of my mother's depression. What should I do? I can't speak. How should I stop this from happening? 】
Qiao Jiaojiao was so anxious that she wanted to scratch her head.
Mrs. Qiao heard every word in her heart. After all, she was the legitimate daughter of Duke Yan's palace, and she quickly calmed down.
Although I don't know why Jiaojiao, who has the memories of her previous life, knows about things that have not happened in this life, I would rather believe it than not.
This was the meat that fell from her own body, and Mrs. Qiao believed that Qiao Jiaojiao was also devoted to her.
"Madam! Mother!"
At this time, a high-pitched and urgent voice came from outside the house, and soon three figures opened the curtain and rushed in.
The servants have already cleaned up for Mrs. Qiao. At this time, the room is very tidy, and even the smell has almost disappeared.
"Madam! I've suffered so much because my husband didn't stay with you!"
The voice was full of energy and he soon reached the bedside.
Qiao Jiaojiao squinted her eyes and finally saw a middle-aged face.
【Ah ah ah! My dad is so handsome! Is this the mature charm of middle-aged men? 】
Hearing that Qiao Jiaojiao also praised Master Qiao, Mrs. Qiao couldn't help but smile.
She raised her eyes to observe her husband and found that he didn't show anything strange. Then she was sure that it was indeed the flesh that fell from her body. Only she could hear Jiaojiao's heartbeat.
"Madam, is this our Jiaojiao?"
Master Qiao even softened his voice and looked at Qiao Jiaojiao with affection.
The couple is now thirty-six and thirty-four. The eldest son is eighteen and the younger son is fifteen. They have been looking forward to this child for a long time.
When they first found out they were pregnant, the couple made an agreement.
The girl's name is Jiaojiao, and the son's name is Goudan!
Fortunately, God fulfilled his wish and finally gave their Qiao Mansion a precious baby bump!
"Come on, daddy, give me a hug!"
Master Qiao carefully took Qiao Jiaojiao from Mrs. Qiao's hand.
【Ah ah ah! What a gentle dad! Woohoo, God has been so good to me! 】
Master Qiao's hand shook violently. If it weren't for the foundation left behind from his previous battles on the battlefield, he might have thrown the child out of his arms right now!
[Ouch, why did my dad tremble? It scared me! 】
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Qiao became even more certain that it was the child in his arms who was speaking!
This...how is this possible!
Speaking of this father, Qiao Jiaojiao expressed great regret.
[Alas, my father is also a legendary figure. When he was young, he fought for the country on the battlefield and regained the Northland. 】
[After the Northern Kingdom surrendered, my father immediately took the initiative to hand over military power, declined the emperor's title of Duke of the State, and became a third-grade imperial censor. 】
[Others laugh at him for being stupid and asking for trouble, but who knows the ambition in my father's heart. 】
[He can protect his family and country with military force, and he can supervise hundreds of officials with his literary skills. He just wants to keep the court clean and bright! 】
Master Qiao was completely shocked when he heard this.
Others laughed and ridiculed him, some said he was greedy for power, some said he was thankless, but only the Jiaojiao in his arms told him what he wanted!
He looked around and found that the wife looked calm, but the two sons were still stupid and did not hear Jiaojiao's thoughts at all!
At this moment, Master Qiao was not only not afraid of Qiao Jiaojiao's weirdness, but he was overjoyed!
Could it be that this was Qiao Zhongguo's exclusive and caring little cotton-padded jacket that God sent to him?
At this time, Qiao Jiaojiao's voice sounded again.
[Uuuuuuuuuah, it's a pity that a great hero like my father ended up becoming a victim of political struggle. He was beheaded by the Meridian Gate and the whole family was wiped out overnight! 】
As soon as these words came out, Master Qiao and Mrs. Qiao were horrified at the same time, and Mrs. Qiao almost fainted.
However, because they were worried that others would notice something strange and involve rumors that would be detrimental to Qiao Jiaojiao, they simultaneously suppressed their expressions.
what happened!
Could it be that their Qiao family was full of loyal ministers who had been loyal to the emperor all their lives, but in the end they ended up with such a tragic end?
【It will definitely never happen again in this life! Such a loving family, even if I risk my life, I will protect them and change their destiny! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao swore firmly in her heart.
As soon as these words came out, although Mr. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao were still uneasy, they were also moved and moved.
Master Qiao touched Qiao Jiaojiao's little face lovingly and said secretly in his heart:
"Silly Jiaojiao, how can such a burden fall on you? Dad will protect you no matter what!"
At this time, Qiao Jiaojiao remembered what happened just now.
[Oh, beheading is still far away, everything is still too late, the girl crawling into bed tonight is the most urgent matter! 】
[Mom and dad have such a good relationship, how can they have a bad relationship because of other people's schemes! 】
Qiao Zhongguo:?
The girl climbed into bed?
Qiao Jiaojiao continued to worry, "That girl has always been a nuisance. Even if my mother leaves her father behind tonight, she can only prevent her for a while, but not for the rest of her life." 】
[The best solution is to find that girl tonight! 】
[It would be great if I could talk. If I let dad pretend to be drunk, then the girl will definitely be fooled! 】
【Ah ah ah, I hate myself for being too young! Nothing can be done yet! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao was extremely troubled, and then an extremely handsome young man came over.
"Dad, it's time for me to hug my sister."
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes flickered, "Damn, this family's genes are really good!" 】
Qiao Zhongguo reluctantly let Qiao Jiaojiao out. At this time, his eyes flashed slightly, and he had obviously adopted Qiao Jiaojiao's suggestion.
Moreover, he felt that it was necessary to beat the people in the house again.
He, Qiao Zhongguo, had sworn a long time ago that he would only have one wife in his life, and he would never take concubines, keep beauties from outside the family, or even have girls in the same room!
At this time, the eldest son Qiao Tianjing had carefully hugged Qiao Jiaojiao, and the second son Qiao Diyi immediately came over and gently poked Qiao Jiaojiao's little face.
【Ah ah ah! Both brothers are so handsome! The eldest brother is a gentleman, gentle as jade, and the second brother is rebellious and high-spirited. What a perfect combination! 】
As soon as Qiao Jiaojiao said this, Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi suddenly raised their heads and looked at each other with shocked expressions on their faces.
Is... is the little sister talking?
[Wow, wow, it's so eye-catching! God has been so kind to me, Qiao Jiaojiao! I am satisfied! 】
Qiao Diyi was younger after all. His expression suddenly changed, and he immediately lost his composure and wanted to ask.
At this time, Qiao Tianjing's face suddenly darkened, and he immediately stopped Qiao Diyi with sharp eyes.
Chapter 3 The gears of fate begin to turn!
Qiao Tianjing is eighteen years old, and he has taken a completely different path from his father. He is a well-known courtier in the capital, and now he is the Minister of Household Affairs.
Qiao Tianjing's success in getting this official position had something to do with his father, but he himself was equally ambitious and worked conscientiously in his official position, never making mistakes.
At this time, his face darkened, and he had a kind of fierceness that was not angry but self-defeating.
Qiao Diyi is fifteen years old and has taken the path of a military attache. Now he has gained experience in the military camp and has a small position.
This is what Mr. Qiao specially told him. Qiao Diyi is young and energetic, and it is inevitable that he will be impetuous. It is not appropriate to give him a high position, so he should be given a hard training!
At this time, Qiao Diyi was indescribably horrified, but he usually listened to his eldest brother's words the most. When he saw his eldest brother's serious expression, he immediately stopped talking.
Qiao Jiaojiao looked at the two people who were still and couldn't help but look confused.
[Why did the eldest brother and the second brother suddenly look at each other? 】
From her angle, she could only see their sharp chins.
When Qiao Tianjing heard this, the expression on his face suddenly changed. He lowered his head and touched Qiao Jiaojiao's face affectionately.
"My little sister is so cute, she looks just like my mother."
Qiao Diyi also reacted. He leaned down slightly and looked at Qiao Jiaojiao intently. He saw her dark eyes, which were indeed very endearing.
Qiao Jiaojiao looked at her two outstanding brothers and suddenly felt sad again.
[Two such brilliant young men, the eldest brother was framed in the officialdom, his reputation was ruined, and finally he was quartered! 】
[The second brother was assassinated by a traitor on the battlefield while fighting for the country, and his body was wrapped in horse leather! 】
[My little one died for no reason at the age of three! 】
【Ah ah ah! Why would God do this to us? We are obviously a loyal family, but we are being executed and our descendants are extinct. This is unfair! 】
Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi:! ! !
What!
My little sister will die at the age of three!
No, they absolutely cannot accept this!
My parents and I have been waiting for this little girl for more than ten years!
At this moment, Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi were not shocked at their respective fates, but worried about Qiao Jiaojiao's safety.
Just now Qiao Jiaojiao did not reveal her fate, but now Master Qiao and Mrs. Qiao know that Qiao Jiaojiao is destined to die young, and they feel even more dizzy.
[No, I want to accumulate more merit! The more merit I have, the more capital I have to save my life and the Qiao family! 】
Merit?
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she immediately decided that starting tomorrow, she would do good deeds and worship the Bodhisattva in the name of Qiao Jiaojiao, no matter how much money she spent!
After Qiao Jiaojiao recognized all the people, she was so tired that she couldn't stand it anymore. She still felt so hungry and her stomach was so empty.
【Ah——I'm so hungry——】
A cry like a cat's meow came from her mouth.
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she immediately reached out her hand and said, "Jiao Jiao is making a fuss. She is probably hungry. I will feed her. You all can go out."
Although wives from wealthy families generally do not breastfeed their children themselves, Jiaojiao has been their favorite for more than ten years, and she has long since decided to do everything herself.
When Qiao Jiaojiao saw that her father was leaving, she screamed in fright.
【Dad! You can't get drunk tonight! 】
Qiao Zhongguo didn't want Qiao Jiaojiao to think that he could hear her thoughts, otherwise Jiaojiao would be constrained from thinking about anything in the future.
So he said in a gentle voice, as Qiao Jiaojiao had expected, "Madam, you have just given birth and are still too weak. I will stay here to take care of you tonight."
Mrs. Qiao also had her own plans. She shook her head considerately, "My husband is a grown man, so it's inconvenient for me to be here. I'll let you spend a few nights in the study these days, right?"
【Ah ah ah! The gears of fate begin to turn! Oh no, no, I'm really going to faint from hunger! Yeah yeah! Dad, you can't leave! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao was so busy that when the milk came to her mouth, her whole brain turned into a ball of paste, and she fell asleep after a few sips.
Seeing that Qiao Jiaojiao had fallen asleep softly, Mrs. Qiao called the wet nurse beside her, Aunt Liu, and said lightly:
"Mommy, I don't need you to serve me tonight. You can go and guard outside the study door to see if there are any little girls with evil intentions."
Aunt Liu's expression changed drastically when she heard this, "Madam, what do you mean!"
Mrs. Qiao looked calm, "In such a big mansion, there are always cats and dogs."
"Mommy, don't make a big fuss, otherwise the master will look bad. I still know how he feels about me."
Aunt Liu agreed with a solemn expression and hurried out.
On the other side, Qiao Zhongguo had already arrived in the study. With a smile on his face, he asked his servants to bring two large jars of wine, saying that he was so happy today that he would get drunk.
The moonlight was deep in the courtyard, and the two brothers stood opposite each other as they had always understood. Both had solemn expressions on their faces.
Qiao Diyi was the first to speak: "Brother, what on earth is going on? We can actually hear the little sister's voice! And it seems that the little sister can predict the future!"
Qiao Tianjing looked much calmer. He walked slowly for a few steps, then suddenly turned around and asked, "Second brother, is she our sister?"
Qiao Diyi was slightly startled by this question, but he still replied without hesitation: "Of course it is, she was also born in her mother's womb, and she is from the same mother as us!"
Qiao Tianjing nodded and said calmly:
"Isn't that enough? Maybe it's because God can't stand it. Our Qiao family is all loyal to the country but they were beheaded and wiped out. So it sent my little sister to save us."
"Second brother, I took a close look at my parents' expressions today. It seems that they can't hear my little sister's voice. Therefore, you know this and I know it, and you must not spread it to anyone."
"Otherwise, it will definitely bring disaster to my little sister's death, and it will also bring disaster to my Qiao family!"
Qiao Diyi already understood what his elder brother meant, and he nodded cautiously.
"Brother, don't worry. I know it well. From now on, I will use my life to love our little sister."
————
Qiao Jiaojiao woke up several times during the night, vaguely seeming to hear Grandma Liu's voice.
"Madam, you really guessed it! Oh my god, I saw that little hoof with my own eyes..."
"...There was a sudden scream in the house, and the master personally wrenched it out. Now there is a huge fire in the front yard..."
Qiao Jiaojiao's mind could no longer keep up. She muttered and fell asleep again.
When I opened my eyes again the next day, it was already bright.
Qiao Jiaojiao felt someone shaking her gently, and soon her father's heroic chin with a bit of stubble came into view.
【Ah ah ah! My dad looks more handsome during the day! 】
Qiao Zhongguo slowly lowered his head and saw Qiao Jiaojiao looking at him with her big eyes open, her face suddenly showing tenderness.
At this time, a frightened cry for mercy came from not far away:
"Master, for the sake of your slave and Hua Da serving in the house for more than thirty years, please spare that girl Liu'er!"
"She is blinded by lard. She should never have such dirty thoughts. After I take her home, I will discipline her well and never let her come out again to embarrass myself."
"Master, have mercy on me! Master, please have mercy on me!"
Chapter 4 The heroine is here!
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes widened slightly when she heard this.
[Are you dealing with the girl climbing into bed? Ah ah ah, that girl didn't succeed! How is your mother doing now? 】
[Wait, BGI! This name is so inconspicuous, yet so deadly! 】
Hearing this, Qiao Zhongguo immediately raised his heart, and Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi, who were sitting down, also looked at each other calmly.
Mrs. Qiao used to handle matters in the inner house, but now she is still in confinement.
Qiao Zhongguo and the others deliberately waited for the court to break up and let the matter ferment in the mansion for a whole morning before dealing with it publicly.
As for bringing Qiao Jiaojiao, Qiao Zhongguo also wanted to give it a try.
If Jiaojiao still knows about any scandals in the house, she will deal with them together.
Nowadays, autumn is crisp and the weather is very comfortable, but Qiao Jiaojiao is still too young after all, so Qiao Zhongguo specially ordered people to seal the windows and move in a screen.
Qiao Jiaojiao searched through her memory and finally dug out information about BGI.
[Damn it, I can't keep this person! This family can't stay! 】
[This Huada has always held a grudge against his father because his daughter was executed. He has a son who works as a sweeper in his eldest brother's yard and secretly collected many of his scrapped manuscripts! 】
[There is no need to blame anyone if you want! When the eldest brother was framed later, it was this BGI who handed those scrapped manuscripts to the eldest brother's nemesis! 】
When Qiao Tianjing heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat.
He has always liked to write and write poems and articles whenever he felt like it.
But I still felt dissatisfied afterwards, so I asked the servants in the yard to burn it.
Who knew that such a small move would bring a fatal blow to myself in the future!
Qiao Zhongguo was extremely happy at this moment, and he hugged Qiao Jiaojiao over.
The next moment he said in a deep voice: "Wada, please reply."
"Yes, yes! Master, please tell me." Hua Da outside the house was extremely frightened.
Qiao Zhongguo deliberately pretended to ponder, and then asked: "Your family has been in Qiao Mansion for more than 30 years. Who are the people in your family and where do they work?"
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes instantly lit up when she heard this.
[My dad is really far-sighted! He is as careful as his hair and knows every detail! 】
[Yes, we want to investigate their family and uproot them without leaving any hidden dangers! 】
Qiao Zhongguo couldn't help but beam with joy when he heard his daughter's praise.
Hey, daddy's little cotton-padded jacket, daddy will pick all the stars and moon in the sky for you!
On the other side, BGI did not dare to hide anything and had already begun to state the situation with trepidation.
I don't know if I don't ask, but I'm really shocked when I ask!
Huada and Aunt Gu are both old people in the house. One of them is in the front yard and the other is in the backyard.
Over the years, the house has actually arranged jobs for my sisters-in-law, siblings, nephews and nieces.
Moreover, his eldest son is indeed working as an errand in Qiao Tianjing's Qingzhuyuan!
When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, his expression suddenly darkened.
If he hadn't been worried about having Qiao Jiaojiao in his arms, Qiao Zhongguo would have banged the table and gotten up with his violent temper.
He suppressed the anger in his heart and snorted coldly: "Over the years, I have become blind. I dare to believe that this Qiao Mansion belongs to your Hua family!"
When Huada heard this, he was so frightened that his two legs trembled and he knelt on the ground.
"Don't dare! Master! We don't dare!"
At this time, the stewards of each hospital in the mansion were still standing in the courtyard. After hearing this, everyone knew that the Huada family could not be saved.
Obviously, today's public execution was to punish servants like them.
Qiao Zhongguo stood up slowly. Even though he was middle-aged, he was still very handsome. He said coldly:
"You bully your superiors and conceal your inferiors, enrich your own pockets, teach your daughters in a bad way, and rely on nepotism. How brave you are!"
"Come here, drive the whole Huada family out of Qiao's Mansion. Not a penny or a piece of paper or ink is allowed to be taken away!"
"Also, go to China and copy it to see if anyone has dirty hands and feet over the years. Bring the things back together and let me see them myself!"
The next moment, screams for mercy and cries rang out in the yard. Others remained silent and did not dare to raise their heads.
【Wow wow wow! This is called acting vigorously and resolutely, being watertight, and emphasizing both grace and power! Daddy, eat my rainbow fart! 】
Qiao Zhongguo: "..."
Did my daughter poop?
He even leaned down and smelled it.
It doesn't stink at all, my daughter smells so good!
After what happened this morning, the three fathers and sons of the Qiao family have become convinced of Qiao Jiaojiao's ability to predict things.
She was only two days old, and she even knew where Huada's son was working. This could only be a miracle!
And the information she revealed this time was even more crucial to Qiao Tianjing.
At this moment, Qiao Tianjing felt happy, but at the same time he was full of love and gratitude for Qiao Jiaojiao.
"Dad, I also want to hug my little sister."
Qiao Zhongguo was originally reluctant to let go, but thinking about how Jiaojiao had helped his eldest son so much, but the eldest son didn't even notice, it was right to give her a hug.
When Qiao Tianjing took Qiao Jiaojiao's hand, Qiao Jiaojiao just grunted.
[It's time for my brother to get a wife. No one collects the things in the yard, and just throws them to the servants. Isn't this decent! 】
[There should be a sister-in-law who takes good care of him and restrains him! 】
[Hey hey hey, I already want to have sex with my beautiful, fragrant and soft sister-in-law! 】
As soon as these words came out, Qiao Tianjing's shoulders shook violently.
He finally persuaded his parents to give him a few more years of grace!
Fortunately, Dad couldn't hear Jiaojiao's thoughts at all.
Qiao Diyi glanced at Qiao Tianjing teasingly and smiled happily.
Anyway, he has his elder brother in front of him, so there is no need to rush!
At this moment, Qiao Zhongguo, who had his back turned to the brothers, suddenly lit up.
What a wonderful idea!
If the boss's scrapped manuscript is copied from the Hua family this time, I will use this excuse to render him speechless!
By the way, the second child is already fifteen, so it's time to put it on the agenda.
The two brothers didn't know that they had been tricked by their little sister, and they tried their best to make her happy.
At this moment, a trembling voice came from outside the door.
"Sir, the Meng family's master and his wife came with their young lady to express their gratitude."
Qiao Jiaojiao started to feel drowsy again, but when she heard the word Meng family, she suddenly became excited and woke up!
【Heroine! The heroine is here! I'm going, I'm so nervous! 】
The heroine?
The father and son raised a question mark in their hearts at the same time.
[The female protagonist is only ten years old, and the male protagonist is only thirteen years old. He should still be keeping a low profile, but he must have initially established his own power. 】
When the father and son heard this, they immediately understood. The female protagonist should be Meng Guxue, so who is the male protagonist?
【hateful! It felt so good to watch them torture the scumbag at the time, but now that the scumbag has become me, I really want to punch them to death! 】
[If the heroine hadn't been helping King Jing with modern knowledge, our Qiao family wouldn't have been plotted by King Jing again and again, and in the end the whole family would have died miserably! 】
Qiao Zhongguo was horrified when he heard this. He didn't expect that the enemy who brought down their Qiao family was only ten years old now!
And the second child was able to save her life!
Also, King Jing?
Except for the prince, several of the princes of the Holy Emperor have not been crowned kings.
Wait, thirteen years old!
Isn't that the current second prince?
Chapter 5 Vomit——
"master?"
The servant outside the door had just experienced the downfall of the Huada family, and now he was still frightened, so he only dared to whisper.
Qiao Zhongguo felt like he was waking up from a dream. He immediately calmed down and there was nothing strange on his face.
【Ah ah ah! I also want to see! I want to see the heroine too! Woohoo, daddy, take me with you! Ball ball! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao screamed urgently despite her tiredness and hunger, secretly wishing that no one could understand her baby talk.
Qiao Zhongguo was about to move, but when he heard this, his footsteps paused slightly and he raised his voice and said: "Welcome people to the main hall and meet you here."
[Woooooo! Dad, I love you! You really understand me! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao burst into tears.
When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, he quickly took Qiao Jiaojiao lovingly, thinking proudly: My daughter said she loves him!
Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi had already met Meng Guxue last night.
But they had no idea at that time that that ten-year-old girl would cause their Qiao family to suffer huge changes.
The other party is only ten years old now, and there is nothing to avoid suspicion. Now the two brothers don't want to leave.
Soon, the Meng family and his wife were welcomed in. Seeing the closed doors and windows, they were a little puzzled at first.
However, when their eyes touched the baby in Qiao Zhongguo's arms, they instantly understood.
Mrs. Meng was secretly envious.
There is a rumor all over the capital that Qiao Yushi dotes on his wife as much as she wants, and... he is in great shape.
You see, a middle-aged man can still have a daughter. She is hugged by all the guests, which shows that she is loved as much as her eyes.
Let's look at his two sons. They are both great and beautiful. When it comes to Mrs. Qiao in the circle of ladies in Beijing, who wouldn't envy her to the point of biting her horns?
Looking at his old man, he is obviously five years younger than Qiao Yushi, but he has a big belly, his hair is thinning on top, and he has one room after another for concubines.
Mrs. Meng's hatred!
Comparing people with each other makes people angry!
Mr. Meng didn't have this consciousness. He lifted his belly and greeted it with a smile on his face.
"Brother Qiao, something happened unexpectedly last night and the reception was not good, so I offended you a lot. My daughter has already met me this morning, and I asked her to come in person to express my gratitude to the second young master."
As he spoke, he turned slightly, revealing Meng Guxue behind him.
Qiao Zhongguo knew his daughter's thoughts and deliberately turned her face outward.
Qiao Jiaojiao took a closer look and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
You know, in the novel, the author described Meng Guxue's beauty as unparalleled in heaven and earth, and even took the title of the most beautiful and talented woman in the capital.
Qiao Jiaojiao's expectations were too high, but after all, the ten-year-old girl hadn't grown up yet.
Her eyebrows were curved, her nose was upturned, her mouth was small, and her face was a little pale.
But those eyes are indeed beautiful, lively and lively, and they are looking around now.
[Oh ho, it seems that falling into the water last night was an opportunity for the heroine to travel through time. Now that this body has been replaced by the soul of a modern adult, the plot is finally here! 】
The Qiao family and his son were instantly shocked to the point of numbness.
Time travel?
So the real Miss Meng died after falling into the water last night, and the person standing in front of them now is another person?
This...isn't this just reviving a dead body?
Thinking of this, even Qiao Zhongguo, who was full of yang, felt a chill down his spine.
He has automatically ignored the fact that his daughter is also very weird, okay?
Although there are thousands of thoughts in his heart, Qiao Zhongguo can still keep his expression straight after so many years of struggle in officialdom.
"Brother Meng, why did you say this? It's human nature to be busy yesterday. There is no need to go to such a troublesome place again."
Mr. Meng is a man of talent. Nowadays, the Qiao family is highly regarded. Although Qiao Zhongguo is only a third-grade censor, he can argue at will in the court. Who dares to talk back?
Because everyone knew in their hearts that anyone who was caught by Qiao Zhongguo either had evil intentions in his heart or had both the stolen goods and the stolen goods.
But he was a solitary minister. He never attended banquets among his colleagues and kept to himself.
Master Meng thought that if he could take this opportunity to establish a good relationship with Qiao Zhongguo, wouldn't he have more security in the court?
"Oh, Brother Qiao, the grace of saving my life is beyond heaven. Xiaoxue, come here and say thank you to the Second Young Master!"
Meng Guxue walked out gracefully, with bright eyes and a clear voice.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Qiao, for saving your life. Xiaoxue has nothing to repay, and I will never forget it!"
Qiao Diyi took a closer look and found that Meng Guxue was clearly confused last night, acted timid and cowardly, could only cry, and then developed a high fever.
Unexpectedly, after one night, I felt like a completely different person!
Is it true, as the little sister said, that there is an adult woman from another world living in Meng Guxue's body now?
Thinking of this, Qiao Diyi's shoulders shook, and the hairs all over his body stood up!
At the same time, Meng Guxue was also looking at Qiao Diyi.
Her eyes lit up slightly, and she didn't even hide the surprise on her face.
Wow, so handsome!
Is this enough to make a C-position debut?
She turned her eyes to Qiao Tianjing aside, and was instantly even more shocked.
Go ahead, this one is more handsome! She wants to choose this big one!
Qiao Jiaojiao saw Meng Guxue's eyes lingering on her eldest brother, and she was instantly furious.
【Depend on! The heroine is not allowed to covet my eldest brother! My sister-in-law is the daughter of the minister of the Ministry of Industry. She is a first-class good woman! 】
Hearing this, Qiao Zhongguo and Qiao Tianjing were both slightly startled.
Minister of Industry?
Isn't that Han Mingzhe, who is known as "harder than the stone in the pit"?
His daughter?
[Dad, Old Man Meng came to visit diligently today. He actually wanted to get Meng Guxue married to one of his two brothers! You must not answer the question and think about it! Reject directly! 】
[Meng Guxue fell in love with eldest brother. She felt that our Qiao family looked down on her after being rejected, so she always had a grudge. Later, she deliberately tried to bring down eldest brother and prove herself! 】
Hearing this, Qiao Zhongguo looked slightly solemn.
In terms of how to behave and observe people's behavior, he was still far behind his wife. If she were present at this time, she would have seen through the Meng family's intentions at a glance!
As expected, Master Meng revealed this intention during the pleasantries, but the person he had in mind was Qiao Diyi.
After all, Qiao Diyi was relatively close in age to Meng Guxue, and he was the one who personally saved Meng Guxue last night.
Meng Guxue can't control her own destiny now, but that doesn't stop her from being clever!
She suddenly turned to Qiao Tianjing, showed what she thought was the sweetest smile, and said with simplicity and joy:
"Brother Qiao, you are so handsome! Xueer is really happy to have a big brother like you!"
Meng Guxue thought to herself that she was a time-travelling woman, the most special woman in the world, and no one could escape her aura as the protagonist!
However, Qiao Tianjing already knew that there was an adult woman inside this body. If it weren't for her excellent self-cultivation, he would have wanted to run away at this moment.
At this moment, Qiao Jiaojiao's heartbeat echoed, perfectly reflecting Qiao Tianjing's heart.
[Ugh—Doesn't she think that she is the daughter of destiny, so everyone has to fall under her charm? 】
Chapter 6 Only mother is good in the world
Meng Guxue's words were out of line even if they came from a seven or eight-year-old girl.
The ancients were very precocious, and big families paid even more attention to education. Meng Guxue's sudden words made Mrs. Meng blush instantly.
Mrs. Meng never expected that her youngest daughter, who had always been very quiet and quiet in front of outsiders, would say such...such shameless words today!
If other people heard this, they would probably think that all the girls in the Meng family were frivolous and uneducated!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Meng quickly pulled Meng Guxue and smoothed things over with a smile:
"The eldest son of the Qiao family is so brilliant that many people in the capital cannot ask for a husband. He is naturally excellent."
What she meant by this was to warn Meng Guxue that Qiao Tianjing had already reached the age of marriage, which was far different in age from her, and he was very popular, and the Meng family could not reach him.
Maybe they want Princess Shang!
However, when Meng Guxue heard this, she became even more excited.
Only such an outstanding and sought-after man can be worthy of her status as a time-traveling woman!
She has just traveled through time and has not had time to show off.
When those ancient poems come out from her mouth, everyone will definitely regard her as the most talented woman in the world!
"Wow, I saw at first glance that my eldest brother is something special. He is really amazing!"
She put her hands on her chest, looking like an adoring little daughter.
When Mrs. Meng saw this, she almost couldn't breathe!
She was really embarrassed to death today. If it spread to other people's ears, she wouldn't even have to hang out in Beijing circles!
[Let me go, this Meng Guxue is completely acting with modern thinking. Didn't she realize that her mother was so embarrassed and angry that she almost passed away? 】
[Brother, be firm! Don't be fooled by the heroine's halo! She was having a lot of fun with King Jing later on, and she is not worthy of you at all! 】
Qiao Tianjing: "..."
In the eyes of my little sister, is he such a brainless person?
Moreover, except for her smart eyes, Miss Meng has no redeeming qualities in her etiquette, manners, posture, and character.
At this time, he couldn't help but think that the little sister said that the daughter of the Minister of Industry's family was his wife, but he didn't know that she...
A gentleman should be polite and do not think about women!
Qiao Tianjing's expression suddenly became serious, and his thoughts stopped abruptly.
This back and forth was enough time for Qiao Zhongguo to come up with a countermeasure.
With a smile on his face, he said politely: "Mrs. Meng is so complimentary. My eldest son is stupid and has made us worry a lot. Now we finally have some signs."
"If there is any good news by then, it will be spread widely and I will rejoice with you all."
Tomorrow he will go meet Han Mingzhe's stinky stone and test his voice!
Qiao Tianjing:?
Any signs? When did this happen? Why didn't he know?
Is she...a young lady from the Han family?
Qiao Jiaojiao was also confused.
[Did your parents fall in love with the girl from the Han family at this time? I remember it was during the Lantern Festival, the eldest brother happened to be a hero and rescued the beauty, and the two of them formed an indissoluble bond, right? 】
Qiao Zhongguo felt that this reminder was very important.
It seems that on the day of the Lantern Festival, the boss will have to hang out all day, and he will not be allowed to go home until he rescues someone!
Qiao Tianjing: Book a day and night tour for the Lantern Festival...
Qiao Zhongguo's hint was so obvious that Mrs. Meng felt that she really couldn't stay in Qiao's house any longer.
What a shame!
You've rejected her so obviously, why don't you just leave and wait to be bombarded?
Mrs. Meng winked at Master Meng frequently.
Mr. Meng also understands the profound meaning, but isn't there another Qiao Diyi?
He is thick-skinned, and there are many things in officialdom that he cannot do without shame. What does this kind of rejection mean?
Mrs. Meng really wanted to be embarrassed to death by her father and daughter.
I just fell in love with someone's eldest son, but after being rejected, I want to talk to the younger son again. How can there be such a thing in the world?
Qiao Jiaojiao saw the look in the eyes of the Meng family and his wife.
【Oh ho! Do you still miss my second brother? My second brother is also a well-known man, and my second sister-in-law is a strange woman. I remember she was just like that - so sleepy! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao let out a long yawn and swallowed the next words.
Qiao Diyi:?
Why don't you talk when it comes to his wife?
Little sister! Tell second brother, who is that woman?
However, Qiao Jiaojiao had reached the limit of her physical strength, and she even felt a stream of heat flowing out of her body uncontrollably.
So shy...she peed!
Qiao Zhongguo felt the heat in his palms and couldn't help but shook his head in amusement.
Mrs. Meng saw this opportunity and left quickly.
"Ah, there is a happy event happening in our house. We were not prepared well. When the little daughter holds a full moon banquet, we will definitely come to congratulate her."
After speaking, she gently tugged on the sleeves of Mr. Meng and Meng Guxue, turned around and walked out.
Meng Guxue is still sad.
Oh my God, such a wonderful man actually belongs to someone else!
Why! No one is worthy of him but me!
Just wait and see!
When I wait for the Beijing Poetry Festival in half a year, I will definitely become a blockbuster and amaze Qiao Tianjing!
On the other side, Qiao Jiaojiao was being carried to Mrs. Qiao's house. On the way, Qiao Tianjing couldn't help but ask:
"Dad, did you and mother really say goodbye to me?"
Qiao Zhongguo shook his head decisively when he thought that the fate between his eldest daughter-in-law and his eldest son would not come until the Lantern Festival.
"Your mother is exhausted these days, how can we have time? It's just a perfunctory talk to the Meng family. You should be careful and bring me a daughter-in-law back as soon as possible!"
Qiao Tianjing felt slightly happy, but in an instant he didn't know why he was happy.
Perhaps it was the younger sister's comments that made him expect more of that Korean girl?
Back in the room, Qiao Jiaojiao was so exhausted that she felt someone changing her diaper, and then she fell into her mother's arms.
[Ah - as expected, only mother is the best in the world, and I like the taste of my mother the most! So delicious! 】
Mrs. Qiao looked proud.
Master Qiao:?
He sniffed himself gently, and it didn't stink...
Qiao Jiaojiao was about to go to bed when she suddenly thought of the girl crawling into bed last night.
[Let me see how my mother is feeling! Mother, mother, you must stay in a happy mood and live to be a hundred years old! 】
[When my daughter grows up, I will give you beauty pills. She will be as beautiful at eighty as she was at eighteen! 】
Mrs. Qiao was concentrating on breastfeeding with her eyebrows furrowed. When she heard this, she was both moved and upset.
She only regarded the beauty pill as a joke, but Qiao Jiaojiao's heart made her happy enough.
Qiao Jiaojiao fell asleep quickly, and then Grandma Liu whispered back to Mrs. Qiao.
"Madam, I have gone to give alms and burn incense as you told me. I also left a lot of money in the alms hall. I think it will be enough for a while."
"Did you tell the Bodhisattva specifically that it was Jiaojiao's intention?"
"Madam, please don't worry. I'm going to say every word and don't dare to be vague!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qiao nodded reassuringly, and then gently touched Qiao Jiaojiao's little head, her eyes full of love.
Jiaojiao, mother will save you some merit.
Save a lot and bless our Jiaojiao to live a long life and have a safe life.
"By the way, madam, I just received a letter from my sister-in-law, saying that she will come to see you tomorrow."
This sister-in-law is the wife of Mrs. Qiao's natal brother.
Mrs. Qiao looked happy when she heard this and responded: "Very good. I haven't seen my sister-in-law for a while."
Chapter 7 A gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall
That night, the things copied from the Hua family were already placed on the table in Qiao Zhongguo's study.
Qiao Zhongguo's eyes passed over a piece of gold and silver and fell directly on an inconspicuous wooden box.
He opened the wooden box with his fingers and saw a thick pile of waste paper inside. The handwriting on it was messy, and some could even see signs of being crumpled into a ball.
Qiao Zhongguo recognized his eldest son's handwriting with just a glance.
He was horrified and extremely happy at the same time, but in the next second it all turned into anger.
"Tell the young master to come and see me!"
Qiao Tianjing hurried over, and when he opened the door, a wooden box fell to his feet with a bang.
"See for yourself!" Qiao Zhongguo was furious.
Qiao Tianjing bent down and picked up a piece of paper at his feet, and his face turned pale instantly.
The above is a piece of indignation he wrote a month ago after seeing the suffering of people's livelihood. The words are fierce and full of passion.
If this piece of paper is taken away by someone with intentions and misinterpreted as dissatisfaction with the Holy Emperor and the imperial court, I will really be speechless.
Seeing that Qiao Tianjing had realized the seriousness of the matter, Qiao Zhongguo suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice:
"Boss, you have always acted calmly, how could you not know that a gentleman should not stand behind a dangerous wall?"
"There is no airtight wall in this world. Even in your own home, you have to keep some words in your stomach!"
Qiao Tianjing lowered his eyebrows and looked respectful.
Qiao Zhongguo was still angry when he thought about it. If Jiaojiao hadn't reminded him, his eldest son would have killed himself!
"Tonight, I will go to the ancestral hall, kneel down, and burn these papers one by one with my own hands. By the way, think about it, have you left any serious mistakes at the age of eighteen?"
"Boss, our Qiao Mansion seems to be prospering day by day, but we should be prepared for danger in times of peace—"
The last sentence was serious and thoughtful. It was said by Qiao Zhongguo not only to himself but also to his eldest son.
Qiao Tianjing has deeply realized his mistake.
He picked up the scrap manuscripts on the ground one by one, put them all into the wooden box, and said in a deep voice: "Dad, my son will never do such stupid things again."
After Qiao Tianjing finished speaking, he turned around and went out, walking firmly towards the ancestral hall.
Qiao Zhongguo looked at his eldest son's back, unable to hide the pain in his eyes, but he also knew that people should be severely hurt once before they can learn a lesson!
Before going to bed, Qiao Zhongguo went to visit Mrs. Qiao again.
Mrs. Qiao heard about Qiao Zhongguo's tantrum in the study from her servants, and she couldn't help but feel concerned.
"Why are you so angry with the boss?"
Qiao Jiaojiao had just drank milk, and now she was in high spirits, and her ears suddenly stood up.
Qiao Zhongguo did not hesitate, and seriously analyzed today's events, including the stakes, to Mrs. Qiao. Mrs. Qiao turned pale when she heard this.
"Thank God!" Mrs. Qiao bowed with lingering fear.
【Ah ah ah! Very good! My dad is so reliable, he really found out! 】
[In this way, with my eldest brother's conduct and clean and honest official conduct, no one who is interested can easily frame him! 】
As soon as Mrs. Qiao heard Qiao Jiaojiao's words, she knew that her eldest son had really overcome a catastrophe ahead of schedule, and she felt relaxed.
"By the way, husband, my sister-in-law said she will come to see me tomorrow, and maybe she will bring Ning'er with her."
At this point, Mrs. Qiao looked a little embarrassed, "Sister-in-law has hinted to me many times that she is attracted to our boss, husband, what do you think?"
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, her hair stood up instantly.
【Mom! No! My sister-in-law is the daughter of the minister of the Ministry of Industry! 】
[The eldest sister-in-law is really good. She and her eldest brother Qin Se were harmonious. In the end, our Qiao family fell into a desperate situation. The eldest brother asked her to return home with her, but she still never left him! 】
[Wow, wow, I really like the big brother and sister-in-law! 】
Qiao Zhongguo had heard Qiao Jiaojiao talk about his daughter-in-law during the day. Now that he knew that his daughter-in-law-to-be was so affectionate and loyal, he was extremely satisfied.
This was the first time Mrs. Qiao heard this news and she was shocked.
Minister of Industry?
Isn't that Mrs. Han's daughter?
But the reputation of the Han family is not very good, and Mrs. Han always keeps to herself.
But since Jiaojiao speaks so highly of the daughter of the Han family, she must be a good girl!
Qiao Zhongguo was about to find a suitable reason to refuse, but he was afraid of hurting Mrs. Qiao's heart. After all, she was her biological niece.
However, Mrs. Qiao had already spoken: "Well, husband, I think about it and let it go. This relationship is too close after all, and the boss has a very good idea. He still has to nod his head on this matter."
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, she nodded immediately.
【Yeah! My mother is so reasonable and respectful to her children. She is truly the best mother in the world! 】
This rainbow fart slap made Mrs. Qiao feel comfortable all over.
At this time, Qiao Jiaojiao's thoughts returned to the aunt who was going to visit her tomorrow.
Mrs. Qiao's maiden name was Zuo Hejing, and she was the daughter-in-law of Duke Yan. She had only one older brother, Zuo Heying, who was in his forties.
My grandfather, Duke Yan, is now sixty-three. He followed the late emperor on his expeditions in the east and west. Although he suffered from some ailments, his body was still strong.
Perhaps because he was busy on the battlefield and neglected to discipline his son, his uncle Zuo Heying had been a dandy for many years and was far behind his grandfather.
My aunt is the daughter of the former young minister of Dali Temple, and her status is much inferior to that of the prince's son.
But he couldn't bear the fact that his aunt was so beautiful that his uncle fell in love with her at first sight and refused to marry her.
But this aunt's character is not simple at all.
[Well, my mother is very close to my aunt. After my aunt married into the Duke's palace, my mother also helped her a lot. 】
[My uncle is a generous person, and my aunt suffered a lot because of this, so my mother intervened and comforted her, and she also gave her a lot of beautiful jade jewelry. 】
[But how could my kind-hearted mother know that this aunt is actually a smiling tiger! 】
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, her heart trembled suddenly.
[Actually, my aunt has always been jealous of my mother! In the past, I was jealous that my mother had a good family background and good looks. Later, I was jealous that my mother married well and lived happily after marriage. 】
[So when my mother regarded her aunt as a close friend and complained that the girl had climbed into dad's bed, she even encouraged her to have a cold war with him even though she knew that dad had done nothing wrong. 】
[She also used her uncle as an example and spoke very unfavorably about the man, which made her mother have grudges and doubts in her heart. 】
[Every time she came, she would give her mother eye drops. Seeing that her mother was getting worse and worse, she was gloating about her misfortune. 】
[The most detestable thing is that after my mother passed away in despair, my grandfather couldn't bear the shock and his hair turned gray overnight, and he no longer had the intention to take care of the Duke's mansion. 】
[My aunt was easily instigated and induced by King Jing, and took this opportunity to attack the Qiao family with her uncle! 】
[During my mother's funeral, my father was so distraught that he didn't care about him. My aunt and uncle took this opportunity to sneak into my father's study and hide the false evidence of collaboration with the enemy and treason! 】
Hearing this, Qiao Zhongguo and Mrs. Qiao really felt like a thunderbolt hit them on the head!
Who would have thought that the accomplice who killed everyone in their Qiao family was actually the person closest to them!
Chapter 8: Vicious woman, I won't hug you!
Mrs. Qiao felt so much hatred.
I hate that I don't understand people well, I hate that I don't trust my husband enough, I hate that I am so hopelessly stupid that I dance with wolves!
When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, he felt anxious.
Such a jackal will never let her appear next to Madam or in the Qiao Mansion!
However, nothing has happened yet. The two families have always been close to each other, so the sudden severance of diplomatic relations is really abrupt and can easily arouse suspicion.
When it comes to matters in the inner house, Mrs. Qiao is much more discerning than Qiao Zhongguo.
Such brother and sister-in-law must not interact with each other as before, otherwise they will definitely bring trouble to the Qiao family!
Moreover, she must let her father control and correct her brother. How could he attack his own sister and brother-in-law just for a small profit?
Mrs. Qiao was extremely heartbroken at this time, but she still suppressed her sadness and said:
"Husband, if I clearly reject the marriage between the boss and Ning'er tomorrow, I'm afraid it will make my brother and sister-in-law unhappy."
Qiao Zhongguo's eyes lit up when he heard this, yes! This is an excellent reason!
So he immediately spoke out in support, "Madam, the boss is too preoccupied, and I think he is too preoccupied with Ning'er's child. They are not a good match to begin with. If we delay, it will not be good for the girl Ning'er."
"Just speak up. If there's anything inappropriate, I'll just come and apologize in person another day."
Of course, if you want him to come to your door, unless you are going to see your father-in-law, don't even think about it!
Mrs. Qiao made a decision in her heart and nodded heavily.
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, she cheered in her heart.
【Very good! It would be best to offend him directly tomorrow and never have any contact with him again! 】
[My aunt is not a good person, and my uncle is indeed not a good person. He then dragged his second brother to visit a brothel. Oh, he caused a lot of trouble again! 】
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she clenched her sleeves suddenly, and her liver ached with anger.
How could the eldest brother...how could he take the second brother to a place like that!
Qiao Zhongguo's face darkened slightly, "Very good, the second brother also has something to do."
After I beat him, I will take a detour when I see a brothel!
"Okay, ma'am, don't think too much, everything is done to your husband. I'm going to stay here tonight, okay?"
Mrs. Qiao was so angry that her head hurt just now, but now her face turned red with embarrassment.
She raised her hand and pushed it gently, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? Jiaojiao is still here, and I...I am inconvenient."
Qiao Zhongguo gently flicked Mrs. Qiao's forehead and said with a helpless smile:
"Silly Madam, what are you thinking about? I am worried that you will be too tired after waking up at night, and I want to share the burden with you."
After hearing this, Mrs. Qiao realized that she had thought wrongly, and her face couldn't help but become more and more ashamed.
Who told him to be so unforgiving despite his age, otherwise she wouldn't think much about it...
"Don't you have to go to court tomorrow? I'm afraid I'll tire you out."
Qiao Zhongguo shook his head with a relaxed look on his face, "When my husband was fighting in the North, he stayed up for three days and three nights. Does Madam think that my husband is old and useless?"
"Don't be so talkative!" Mrs. Qiao slapped her husband's shoulder coquettishly.
Qiao Jiaojiao is almost going crazy!
【Ah ah ah! What kind of fairy parents are these! They care for each other, like glue and paint, the sound is so sweet! 】
When the couple heard the whirring sound, they froze at the same time, and their faces turned red.
I forgot that there was a baby bump as big as a kid lying on the bed!
That night, Qiao Zhongguo stayed as he wished.
He was lying on the outside in an orderly manner. As long as Mrs. Qiao got up at night, he would sit up immediately and go about his business.
As soon as the hour came early the next morning, he got up quietly again, went outside to freshen up and went to court.
Mrs. Qiao's heart was full of sweetness. She had a good rest that night and her complexion was much better.
About half an hour later, Grandma Liu led Mrs. Zuo in.
Mrs. Qiao was sitting on the couch holding a doll to coax Qiao Jiaojiao.
Although Qiao Jiaojiao had long disliked such childish things, she still waved her arms in order to make Mrs. Qiao happy.
When Mrs. Zuo walked into the house, she saw such a warm picture.
Her eyes wandered around Mrs. Qiao's face, and she gritted her teeth secretly.
When other people gave birth to a baby, they looked haggard and ugly, but she was radiant and her complexion remained unchanged.
"Sister, I'm here to see you! Look at what you look like. Others are just walking through hell. I'm afraid you didn't go to the peach garden in heaven and look more and more handsome."
These words sounded a bit sinister, but it was because she was smiling and couldn't find any fault.
In the past, Mrs. Qiao would not have minded this at all. But now that she knows that Mrs. Zuo has evil intentions, she feels that there are thorns everywhere.
Qiao Jiao was extremely squeamish.
[You have just walked away from the gate of hell. Your whole family...wait a minute, didn't this include your mother and grandfather? 】
[Bah, bah, bah! Children's words are unbridled! Children's words are unbridled! 】
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she couldn't help being amused, and a smile appeared on her face.
Mrs. Zuo had just thought that Mrs. Qiao was a little strange, as if she was no longer as warm to her as before, but this smile dispelled her doubts.
"Hey, this is my niece, right? Let your aunt see what kind of fairy she looks like!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qiao immediately hugged Qiao Jiaojiao. Even though Mrs. Zuo was trying to hug her, she had no intention of letting go.
Qiao Jiaojiao opened her eyes wide and took in Madam Zuo's entire appearance.
It can be seen that Mrs. Zuo was definitely a beautiful woman with a strong face when she was young, but she still looks charming now.
It's just that she doesn't know if it's because Prince Zuo worries her too much. There are a few wrinkles at the end of her eyes and a sharp edge between her eyebrows, which makes her life not go well.
Seeing Mrs. Qiao's protective look, Mrs. Zuo sneered: "What's wrong, are you afraid that I will eat your Jiaojiao?"
Mrs. Qiao shook her head lightly, "Jiaojiao recognizes her."
Mrs. Zuo immediately laughed when she heard this, "Sister, who is this child of a few days old?"
Before she could reach out her hand, Qiao Jiaojiao screamed at the right time.
[Hmph, vicious woman, I won't hug you! I won't hug you! 】
When Mrs. Zuo saw Qiao Jiaojiao crying, she immediately retracted her hand.
She actually didn't like children. After giving birth to the child, she became visibly older.
The reason for hugging her is just to keep up appearances.
Just as Mrs. Zuo was about to sit by the bed, Nanny Liu quickly moved a chair.
"Madam, please sit here and make yourself more comfortable."
Mrs. Zuo sat down and began to lecture as if she had experienced it.
"Sister, my sister-in-law is not telling you that after a woman has a child, she cannot ignore her husband."
"Men love the new and hate the old the most, and they also hate being ignored the most. If you don't keep a close eye on him, be careful of him stealing food outside!"
Qiao Jiaojiao wanted to roll her eyes at this moment.
【I'm coming! If you are not happy yourself, you have to give others eye drops! My parents are in a good relationship! They slept together last night! 】
After being reminded by Qiao Jiaojiao, Mrs. Qiao learned the lesson last night and is no longer affected by Mrs. Zuo.
She suddenly lowered her head and said shyly:
"Sister-in-law, my husband won't do it. He stayed here last night."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zuo suddenly raised her head, and she didn't even have time to hide the shock on her face.
Chapter 9 Yo yo yo, the true colors are revealed!
"You said, my brother-in-law stayed here last night?"
Mrs. Zuo asked uncertainly.
She was really shocked.
A woman's lochia is not gone after giving birth, and most men would be too late to feel dirty and wish they could stay far away. Why is her brother-in-law willing to stay here?
Mrs. Zuo suddenly remembered her husband's disgusted look after she gave birth, and suddenly felt heartache.
She could never figure out why Zuo Hejing was so lucky!
Mrs. Qiao noticed the undisguised jealousy on Mrs. Zuo's face, and felt sad and happy at the same time.
The sad thing is that I really don't know people well, and I almost killed the entire Qiao family.
The joy is that from now on, I will never have to deal with such a snake or scorpion, and I will no longer have to carefully hide my husband's preference for me in order to protect my sister-in-law's self-esteem.
"Yes, he tidied up the mansion yesterday and said he would never take concubines, let alone any marriage, so my sister-in-law doesn't have to worry about me."
After Mrs. Qiao said this, there was a click on Mrs. Zuo's hand, and she was so jealous that she broke the armor abruptly.
Qiao Jiaojiao took a look and said, "Hey, oh, oh, I can't hold it in anymore, my true colors are revealed!" 】
Mrs. Qiao had a smile on her face when she heard this, and she was so well-mannered that she seemed not to notice it at all.
If she hadn't been blinded by family affection, Mrs. Zuo's level would not be enough in front of her!
Mrs. Zuo realized that she had lost her composure, quickly put her expression back, and said sarcastically:
"Then sister, you have to control yourself. Men have no sense of propriety. Don't hurt yourself."
Mrs. Qiao covered her mouth and laughed angrily: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? The reason why my husband stayed here is just to take care of me during the night. I can't even drive him away."
Mrs. Zuo's hands shook suddenly, as if she had heard some fantasy.
Take care of Qi Ye?
How could any man in the world be willing to do such a thing?
Mrs. Qiao never said these words in front of Mrs. Zuo before, but now she has no scruples, like sharp needles, pricking Mrs. Zuo hard.
Mrs. Zuo tugged at the handkerchief, suddenly filled with resentment.
Zuo Hejing clearly knows how bad her brother is and how miserable I am, but today they repeatedly show off their love as husband and wife. What does this mean? Do you want to see my jokes?
Mrs. Qiao still had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold.
Are just a few words hurting you? Then when you tortured my whole Qiao family, did you ever think about how painful it was for us!
Qiao Jiaojiao praised her mother's fighting ability crazily.
【Ah ah ah! Mom, you show off just right. Looking at Mrs. Zuo, her face is twisted, haha! It feels so good to abuse a scumbag and slap him in the face! 】
[Oh, it would be great if we could find a way to get this aunt out of Duke Yan's mansion. 】
[I remember that before my aunt married my uncle, she had a childhood sweetheart who worked under King Jing. It was this childhood sweetheart who was the one who pulled the strings when it came to burying evidence of treason with the enemy. What was his name? 】
[Hiss, I really can't remember! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao shook her head in distress.
A glint flashed in Mrs. Qiao's eyes, and she shook Qiao Jiaojiao gently, not wanting her to bother thinking about it any more.
As long as you are willing to look into these things, you can definitely find them out.
If the sister-in-law is really unfaithful to her brother, then she is destined to not be able to stay in the Duke's Mansion!
When Mrs. Qiao saw that Mrs. Zuo had not mentioned marriage for a long time, she took the initiative and asked, "Why didn't you bring Ning'er here today?"
Mrs. Zuo's mind suddenly calmed down, and then she remembered that she still had something serious to do.
"The child has been studying hard recently. He said he is preparing for the poetry meeting in six months."
Mrs. Qiao nodded understandingly. Poetry fairs have always been a highlight in the Beijing circle. She also fell in love with her husband at the poetry fair back then.
At this time, Mrs. Zuo really brought up the old matter again.
"Sister, have you told your brother-in-law about the matter I mentioned before? Let me tell you, there is nothing better than getting closer to each other!"
Mrs. Qiao shook her head in embarrassment, "Sister-in-law, I'm afraid it won't work."
Madam Zuo's face suddenly darkened when she heard this, "Why, does my sister think that our Ning'er is not worthy of the Scripture?"
Qiao Jiaojiao's mind suddenly lifted.
【I'm coming! Mother, kill her! Let's see if she can be shameless again in the future! 】
If this happened in the past, Mrs. Zuo would have a cold face, but Mrs. Qiao would definitely smile and comfort her.
But at this moment, Mrs. Qiao was sitting firmly on the couch, motionless.
She said calmly: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry, it's really the boss's idea that's too big."
Mrs. Zuo laughed angrily when she heard this, "Since ancient times, parents have ordered matchmakers. No matter how the child has his own ideas, aren't you the ones who have the final say on the marriage?"
Mrs. Qiao looked calm, "I can't force my child to do anything."
Mrs. Zuo instantly laughed angrily, "What does my sister mean by this, is Ning'er worthy of the scriptures, or is she reluctant to accept the scriptures?"
Mrs. Qiao stabbed her in a blunt tone, "Sister-in-law, you said this yourself. Sister, I don't mean that."
Mrs. Zuo suddenly stood up, her face was ashen, and her words were sarcastic:
"Sister, you are so arrogant and impressive now. People in Beijing say that the Qiao family is prospering now and the holy family is strong. I'm afraid she wants Princess Shang!"
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, her face suddenly darkened, and her phoenix eyes were fixed on Mrs. Zuo.
"Sister-in-law, don't mention this kind of gossip again. Our Qiao family is committed to our duties and is loyal to the emperor and the country. We don't dare to have such unreasonable thoughts."
"As for Ning'er's marriage, if my sister-in-law is in a hurry, I will ask my husband to help keep an eye on those good men. Naturally, the young lady of Duke Yan will not be aggrieved."
This was the first time that Mrs. Qiao showed her majesty as a mistress in front of Mrs. Zuo, and her calm and authoritative attitude really calmed Mrs. Zuo.
"you you......"
Mrs. Zuo looked at you for a long time, and finally said in anger: "I, the mother-in-law, have to worry about Ning'er's marriage, so I don't dare to bother you, Mrs. Qiao!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qiao hugged Qiao Jiaojiao and leaned softly on the pillow, and said with a cold face: "My sister-in-law is taking care of this matter, so I think it will be perfect."
Mrs. Zuo's face was full of anger, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Just pretend that I have never been here today. I can't reach the threshold of the Qiao family now!"
She didn't believe that Zuo Hejing dared to really break up with her.
However, Mrs. Qiao just patted Qiao Jiaojiao gently and said thoughtfully: "It's inconvenient for my sister to send her far away, so my sister-in-law will go slowly."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zuo's face suddenly twisted. She took a deep look at Mrs. Qiao and walked away angrily.
Qiao Jiaojiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
【Good to go! Good to go! She must be really offended now, and we have to prevent her from jumping over the wall in a hurry, but King Jing hasn't gotten up yet, and she doesn't have the capital to jump even if she wants to! 】
[Ah, my mother is mighty, my mother is strong! This level of house fighting is not enough in my mother's eyes! 】
Mrs. Qiao lovingly pressed Qiao Jiaojiao's forehead. Today, she could really see her sister-in-law clearly.
Fortunately, there is Jiaojiao.
Fortunately, it was all in time.
Chapter 10 Jiaojiao is full moon
Under the careful care of the whole family, Qiao Jiaojiao is finally one month old!
The Qiao Mansion started preparing for the full moon banquet five days ago, and Qiao Zhongguo personally took care of everything to make sure it was a success.
When the Holy Emperor heard that the daughter of the Qiao family was about to be full moon, he waved his hand in the hall:
"Prince, please go to Qiao's house to congratulate me on my behalf."
This is a face given by the Holy Spirit, but if you put it in someone else's house, it would be an honor that you cannot ask for.
Qiao Zhongguo thanked him profusely in the palace, but he couldn't help but feel worried when he returned home.
The Qiao family is really eye-catching now.
However, this honor is not without its benefits.
Qiao Zhongguo decided to bring Qiao Jiaojiao in front of everyone. Maybe he would hear some incredible secrets by then. The Qiao family could also make plans early to seize the opportunity!
The invitation to the full moon banquet was received personally by Mrs. Qiao. She specially added the name of Han Jia, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, hoping to meet her prospective daughter-in-law in advance.
On the day of the full moon, Mrs. Qiao dressed up Qiao Jiaojiao carefully.
The little person is lying on the bed, with round and bright eyes, a white and smooth face, a small chirp on his hair, and a festive red dress and tiger-head shoes. He is really as cute as the doll in the New Year pictures.
Mrs. Qiao held Qiao Jiaojiao in her arms lovingly and asked Nanny Liu in a warm voice.
"Have everything been delivered to the relief hall?"
Aunt Liu looked happy and nodded repeatedly, "Madam, don't worry, I sent it to you early this morning, and it's still the little lady's name."
"Those children who have no father or mother and are homeless are really pitiful. Now, thanks to the kindness of the madam and the little lady, life is much better."
Qiao Jiaojiao heard about the relief hall for the first time, and then she realized that her mother had been doing good things in her name.
Her heart trembled slightly, wait, isn't this a merit!
Thinking of this, Qiao Jiaojiao immediately called out the Merit Mall.
She took a closer look and was instantly ecstatic.
【Ah ah ah! The merit points have increased to 120 points! Mother, mother, you are so awesome! 】
[Wow, as expected, money is very useful. I helped so many people at once, which is equivalent to one-fifth of my merit in my previous life! 】
Although Mrs. Qiao didn't understand the merits, seeing Qiao Jiaojiao so happy, she knew she had done nothing wrong.
"Mommy, don't stop doing good deeds. From now on, you don't need to give me instructions every month. Just transfer the money regularly. It's really not easy for those children."
Aunt Liu responded hurriedly.
The hours passed by, and soon guests came to the door in twos and threes.
After Mrs. Qiao's confinement, not only did her complexion not fade, but she became even more radiant.
She sat firmly in the back hall to receive guests, and her wife couldn't help but marvel when she saw her.
Qiao Jiaojiao hummed proudly, and her cute appearance attracted the attention of all the ladies.
Soon, guests gathered in the back hall. Qiao Jiaojiao was hugged by everyone, and her wrists and neck were immediately covered with gold jewelry.
At this time, someone outside the door sang a promise, "Mrs. Han's family and Miss Han's family are here to congratulate——"
Mrs. Qiao's eyes instantly lit up when she heard this. Qiao's delicate big eyes were exactly the same as Mrs. Qiao's. Both mother and daughter looked out the door expectantly.
At this time, there were whispers in the room.
"The Han family? Doesn't their family not attend any banquets?"
"Hey, you just pretend to be noble on weekdays, but aren't you eager to show up today?"
When Mrs. Qiao heard these criticisms, she frowned and stood up.
At this time, two people came outside the house.
The lady on the left looks to be in her late forties. Although her clothes are in festive colors, traces of the past can still be seen.
Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she looked calm when everyone looked at her, neither sad nor happy.
Next to her was a young girl, wearing a bright yellow dress, with a slender figure and a straight back.
Qiao Jiaojiao took a closer look at the girl's features. She was not very stunning, but she was beautiful, calm, and neither arrogant nor impetuous.
【Ah ah ah! Mother! It's my sister-in-law! Your future daughter-in-law! I really like! Woohoo, I liked it at first sight! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao looks at Miss Han through the filter of the original novel, while Mrs. Qiao looks at the upbringing and character revealed in her behavior.
With just one glance, Mrs. Qiao fell in love with Miss Han.
Beautiful, smart, exquisite and translucent, she definitely deserves the title of the young lady of the Qiao family.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qiao hugged Qiao Jiaojiao and went to greet her personally.
This kind of praise was seen in everyone's eyes, and they couldn't help but be very surprised.
Mrs. Han did not expect Mrs. Qiao to come over in person and hurriedly paid her respects.
She didn't want to attend any banquets. First, her husband was a lonely minister and she couldn't hold him back.
Second, she is indeed a clumsy person and does not want to offend others.
But on the day when he received the invitation from Qiao Mansion, his husband said that he had to come to this banquet.
No one else, just because Qiao Yushi is the only person that my husband respects in the court.
Mrs. Han originally thought that these ladies from wealthy families were extremely difficult to get along with, but now she felt like a spring breeze when she saw the gentle and beautiful Mrs. Qiao.
"I'm a little late, please don't blame me, madam."
Mrs. Qiao smiled and shook her head, "It's not too late, it's still early."
She turned her head slightly, her eyes fell softly on Miss Han, and asked with a smile: "Who is this?"
Miss Han took the initiative to step forward and bowed gracefully. Mrs. Han then said: "This is the little girl Yaxian in the family, who has shown her embarrassment in front of Madam."
Mrs. Qiao is a mother-in-law who has chosen her daughter-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the happier she becomes.
She knew her son well. The boss said he was deep-minded, but actually he was cold on the outside and hot on the inside. Only such a quiet, gentle and well-educated woman could talk to him.
Mrs. Han noticed Mrs. Qiao's gaze, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw her expression of satisfaction looking at her daughter.
I heard that the Dalang of Qiao Mansion is eighteen years old and is a famous beautician in the capital. He is still unmarried...
Mrs. Han's thoughts only reached this point and she did not dare to think any more.
The lintel of the Han family is far different from that of the Qiao family, and the master's reputation is not good. If Yaxian marries into such a wealthy family, she is afraid she will be wronged.
In this room, although the ladies did not dare to comment, they also glanced at each other, trying to guess what Mrs. Qiao meant.
At this time, the sound of singing a promise came again from outside the door: "Mrs. Meng's family and Miss Meng's family are here to congratulate!"
Qiao Jiaojiao was originally immersed in the temperament of the beautiful sister-in-law and couldn't help herself. Now when she heard about the Meng family, she was instantly excited.
【Heroine! The heroine is here again! 】
[Let her see my real sister-in-law, let her know that the ladies trained in the ancient official residences are no less good than the time-traveling girls! 】
Mrs. Qiao frowned suddenly when she heard this.
Her husband had told her a long time ago that the Meng family was interested in getting married to their Qiao family, and this ten-year-old girl had big ideas and even set her sights on the boss of their family!
She wanted to see what the woman Jiaojiao cared about so much looked like.
