Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 43
Chapter 43 You Have, I Have, Everyone Has
“Fourth Madam Qiao, Brother Bin has made an appointment with a few young masters. I wonder if Second Young Master Qiao is free to drink tea at the teahouse tomorrow.”
Qiao Yunxi raised his eyebrows.
Tong Bin asked these people out, so he naturally didn’t just drink tea. He wanted to clarify what happened today in front of everyone.
The Chrysanthemum Appreciation Gathering was originally a gathering of children. Naturally, this kind of accident would be resolved by the children themselves. Tong Bin invited everyone out very formally, so he had to settle it carefully. This was also for the Qiao Family to see. This was the attitude of the Tong Family.
Inviting Qiao Er was equivalent to asking him to bear witness.
Qiao Yunxi couldn’t help but glance at Madam Tong.
She did have some tricks. She was clearly flattering him, but she didn’t lose face at all when she said it out loud.
After sending off Madam Tong and Tong Bin, Old Madam Qiao called the people from the Changfang and Fourth Rooms to the middle courtyard.
Qiao Yunxi curled his lips.
Why didn’t the old witch stand up for Qiao Jinwen?
As soon as she entered the east wing of the courtyard, Old Madame Qiao waved her hand at Qiao Jinwen.
Qiao Jinwen walked over without saying a word, her tearful eyes filled with grievances.
“Child, why aren’t you looking for your grandmother for such a big grievance? Grandmother will make the decision for you!” As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Qiao Yunxi.
Qiao Jinwen hurriedly comforted, “Thank you, grandmother, for thinking for Jin Wen, but this matter was not handled properly by Jin Wen, so Jin Wen naturally had to take responsibility for the mistakes that occurred halfway.”
“Child, you are asking too much of yourself. This is the first time you have hosted such a party. How many girls as old as you can host such a big party in Jincheng? You, don’t have any psychological burdens. It’s not your fault. Ming Tong Bin will give everyone an explanation.”
Evidently, Old Madam Qiao already knew the Tong Clan’s solution.
Qiao Jinwen nodded sullenly, looking absent-minded.
Although this matter had been satisfactorily settled, she was still feeling very uncomfortable. Qiao Yunxi had secretly set it up. In the end, she had to give everyone an explanation of the matter that did not need to be specifically explained.
Luckily, Tong Bin wasn’t a fool. Just leave the rest to him.
Old Madame Qiao felt the most distressed for Qiao Jinwen. She had specifically asked Qiao Jinwen to host the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Gathering to justify her name. She did not expect that her name would not arrive, but instead, it would drag down her ability!
At this moment, he felt uncomfortable and looked at Qiao Yunxi with a picky gaze.
“Qiao Qiao, do you know what’s wrong with you today?” His deep voice carried the majesty of an elder.
Gu Jingshu frowned. Just as she was about to argue for her daughter, Qiao Yunxi had already stepped in front of her and said, “Go back to grandmother, Qiao Qiao did not handle today’s matter properly.”
After a pause, Qiao Yunxi deliberately said, “Qiao Qiao shouldn’t have said something worrying for Third Sister in front of everyone, which made Third Sister have to give everyone an explanation in order to comfort me.”
Qiao Jinwen’s face was dark!
This idiot actually dared to mention this matter!
If Qiao Xi hadn’t said that she was worried that outsiders would question her ability, she wouldn’t have said anything impulsively that would explain it to everyone!
What a joke, why should she give everyone an explanation!
It was clearly not her fault, why did she give everyone an explanation?
Being provoked by Qiao Xi, she became the one who had to take responsibility for this matter!
Even if Tong Bin’er explained it clearly to everyone, her reputation would be affected!
Now that Qiao Xi said this in such a harmless tone, how could she reply?
Saying that Qiao Xi’s worries were unnecessary?
Old Madame Qiao’s elite gaze stabbed straight at Qiao Yunxi.
Qiao Yunxi lowered her eyebrows and looked pleasing to the eye. There was no expression on her wooden little face, and her slightly pursed lips revealed her fear and helplessness.
Old Madame Qiao’s eyes narrowed with satisfaction.
She said that a stupid girl who had never seen the world before, how could she understand the sharpness in her words? It was just a mistake.
“Alright, this matter is over. San’er, grandmother has a few pieces of Shu brocade that are suitable for you. Bring them back.”
Was this a material compensation for Qiao Jinwen?
Qiao Xi said that she didn’t care at all.
Returning to the Eastern Campus, Gu Jingshu said a few words to the nanny beside her. The nanny brought a few maids and brought in two Shu brocades.
“Qiao Qiao, mother has a few pieces of Shu brocade here. It’s a new design by Qiao Family. It hasn’t been sold yet. Your father brought you a few pieces back.”
“Mother” Qiao Xi pounced into Gu Jingshu’s embrace coquettishly.
How could she not know Gu Jingshu’s good intentions?
The old witch had also given Qiao Jinwen a few Shu brocades. Gu Jingshu was worried that she would be depressed, so she asked Nanny Zhong to take them from the warehouse.
“Tomorrow, mother will ask the people in the shop to come over and take the measurements. We will make some winter clothes. It’s almost the end of the year. It’s time to wear them for the festival.” Gu Jingshu said boldly.
“Mother, didn’t I just make two? I made them according to the patterns in the capital.”
“How can two be enough? Besides, haven’t you taken them back yet?” Gu Jingshu said nonchalantly, “Make a few more. We still need to go to the Outer Ancestor’s home at the end of the New Year.”
Qiao Yunxi’s eyes lit up.
It wasn’t that she had a deep impression of her grandfather’s family. She rarely went out. Even if she followed the people from the fourth room, she would still stand there as a background.
She had been staying at Qiao Clan for a long time, so she really wanted to go out and take a look.
Thinking of this, she said to Gu Jingshu, “Mother, when the Ma Clan’s Second Young Master leaves today, I want to ask you if you want to go to Zhaojue Temple with Aunt Teng by the fifteenth.”
He heavily exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
Very well, he finished his sentence in a scholarly manner.
Give yourself a liking first.
“Fifteen?” Gu Jingshu thought for a moment and said, “We should be fine on the fifteenth. It’s fine to go out for a walk. I’ll have someone reply to your Aunt Teng later.”
After returning to the east courtyard, Qiao Yunxi thought for a moment and said to Lian Qiao, “You don’t have to wait at night.”
“Miss …”
Qiao Xi looked over coldly, and Lian Qiao did not dare to speak.
Young miss was still dumbfounded, but her eyes were different from before. When she became serious, it made people feel scared in their hearts.
I don’t know if this is good or bad.
Qiao Yunxi smiled and looked out of the window.
Today, Qiao Jinwen was wronged by “how hot”, so Black Condom would climb the wall at night, right?
If he didn’t comfort the people at the apex of his heart, wouldn’t the black condom be able to sleep?
Look at how good she is, afraid that the black condom will flip over the wrong wall and remove the unsafe factors for him first.
Next time I see a black condom, I wonder if I can get some benefits.
Qiao Yunxi consciously went to bed early, afraid that curiosity would kill the cat. She asked Lian Qiao to bring cotton, stuffed it into her ears, and propped up the corpse in bed with satisfaction.
Midnight.
After the wind blew, a black shadow descended and sneaked into a corner of the garden in the east courtyard.
A rustling sound followed, and a slightly petite figure also followed. After a few imperceptible sounds, the courtyard became calm.
“Oh, you even personally made a trip.” After seeing who was in front of him, Dang Gui said mockingly.
Tang Yuan was dressed in night clothes, his face was covered with a towel, and his entire body was hidden in the twilight. Those with slightly weaker eyesight would not be able to discover it at all.
However, the resentment on Tang Yuan’s body was extremely heavy, so sharp that even if Dang Gui wanted to pretend that he didn’t see it, he couldn’t do it. It was a rare opportunity to tease the number one “male pet” beside his master. Dang Gui said that if he missed this opportunity, he would never have it again in his life.
Tang Yuan gave off a cold breath, and his gaze towards Dang Gui became unfriendly.
If I weren’t worried about that woman in the Northern Courtyard, I wouldn’t have asked him to make a special trip.
He’s weird.
Master has been getting used to it lately, and he often thinks of things one at a time.
One must know that in the past, Ye Zichen had been very thoughtful and had planned things over and over again, taking one step at a time and thinking about ten steps at a time.
It was not that Ye Zichen was indecisive, but that he had to consider all aspects. They could not take a single wrong step, otherwise, they would never be able to recover from their calamity.
However, ever since I was assassinated last time, I have become as carefree as I want, and my previous caution has turned into recklessness!
Yes, it was reckless!
Otherwise, why would he climb the wall for a woman!
Who was he!
The grand Duke Ding’s Mansion’s First Class Guard Team Leader with the Saber … Backup!
He actually climbed the wall in the middle of the night!
It wouldn’t matter if it was to gather information, but it was actually to …
Okay.
Yours Truly is not young anymore. There should be a woman beside him.
Taking back the chatter in his heart, Tang Yuan took a deep breath and said, “Master told me to ask you, why didn’t you follow Qiao Yunxi?”
“Master, are you asking about what happened in the rockery garden?” Dang Gui immediately understood, and said, “It was Miss Wang who suggested playing hide-and-seek. Ladies, we servants can only wait outside. The maids brought by the guests are all outside, so I can’t follow up on my own, can I?”
He spread out his hands and was very innocent.
“You know how to be a maidservant.”
“Glutinous Rice Bun Pie, what do you mean?” Dang Gui gritted her teeth, how could she not recognize the ridicule in Tang Yuan’s words?
Haha, she’s not a vegetarian.
He immediately went back.
“Yo, you’re good at it. How dare you challenge me?” As soon as Tang Yuan’s momentum opened, he did not look like the servant who usually obeyed Gu Jinzhen’s orders.
“I don’t dare. I don’t dare to compare my status to yours. However, they are all people beside me. No one is more precious than you!” Dang Gui was very confident.
She and Tang Yuan’s division of labor was different. If Tang Yuan and the others were the spears beside me, then their “Twelve Killing Gods” were hidden arrows. Their methods of dealing with things were different, but their purpose was to work for me.
“Heh,” Tang Yuan sneered, “Since Master asked me to ask you, do you think this matter is trivial?”
Dang Gui put away his teasing thoughts and said seriously, “I really don’t know what happened today. I checked carefully afterwards and found that Tong Bin was originally a pervert. He wasn’t brainless and wouldn’t dare to attack Qiao Family in Qiao Yunxi.” Qiao Yunxi was a little dumbfounded and said very few words, but if something really happened to her, she would definitely not let it go according to Qiao Xingbang and Gu Jingshu’s doting on her. The Tong Clan relies on Qiao Family to survive and will not commit suicide. Tong Bin is not stupid to this extent. “
