Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 78
Chapter 78 Everything Is Right
His arrogant tone was as if they were willing to take advantage of Gu Sheng, as if they had given him a lot of face.
“Mother, there’s one more thing that’s more troublesome.” Fourth Master Qiao said this.
Logically speaking, it should be Xue Tao who spoke about the backyard, but what she wanted to say next was not a good thing. Fourth Master Qiao also loved his daughter-in-law. He didn’t want Xue Tao to be angry, so he had to go on his own.
“What is it?”
“Today, Qiao Qiao …”
“Then what did that damn girl do?” An impatient tone.
Fourth Master Qiao said, “Today, Qiao Qiao showed off her mother’s importance to her and the long room and said something that she shouldn’t have said.”
“Damn girl, what did you say?” Even though she knew that Qiao Yunxi couldn’t spit ivory out of his mouth, Old Madam Qiao didn’t take it to heart. She was just a child, would she be able to turn the world upside down?
However, Fourth Master Qiao’s next words made Matriarch Qiao unable to sit still.
“The child showed off in front of the Crown Prince and said that the things on the eldest sister-in-law’s manor were all good things. Not only did Mother like them very much, but even our rooms also liked them very much. Therefore, the things in the kitchen were all supplied by the eldest sister-in-law’s manor.”
“Totally nonsense!” Old Madame Qiao slapped the table, “She dares to say such a thing, it’s heaven-defying!”
How she wanted to polish the long room was a matter of closing the door. These years, the people of the long room didn’t even dare to spit a fart. Qiao Xi, this damn girl, actually dared to arrange her behind her back. She was still in front of a noble person!
She had maintained her image and face for her entire life, but she was actually ruined by a dead girl!
“Someone, immediately send word and call the boss’s family back!”
“Mother!” Fourth Master Qiao stopped the angry Old Madame Qiao. “Absolutely not. Qiao Qiao’s forefoot said those words without regard to the importance of the matter. You should call back the eldest brother’s family with your hind legs. If the Crown Prince finds out, he will probably think too much about it,” Fourth Master Qiao said.
“This is a matter of our Qiao Family. The Crown Prince will not care about it. Besides, I called the boss back because I care about them. Ask them about their current situation. What does it have to do with today’s matter?” Old Madame Qiao refused to admit it.
“Yes, mother is kind, but it is not good to have so many pair of eyes staring outside. The Crown Prince naturally won’t interfere in our Qiao Family affairs, but there are always a few pairs of eyes that can’t see us staring at each other in the shadows. It’s still uncomfortable to hear such rumors at the end of the year. “San’er has already explained it clearly. Those items were specially sent back by sister-in-law for you to taste. As for those that were sent to our rooms, sister-in-law also sent them specially. At the New Year’s Eve dinner, everything that should be purchased is being contacted. The New Year’s Eve gifts are also prepared seven to eight times. So, mother, you don’t have anything to worry about.”
“You cheated that damn girl!” Obviously, Old Madame Qiao did not want to give up.
Xue Tao hurriedly comforted, “Mother, Qiao Qiao is only relying on the importance of the Crown Prince, so she has no fear. When she returns from West Sichuan, the Crown Prince doesn’t even remember who she is. What we want to see is the long-term interests. Now, we should think about how to salute mansion of Marquis Zhen Yuan.”
Xue Tao somewhat disliked the people in the long room.
It was not easy to get on good terms with the Marquis’ Manor. If they didn’t take advantage of the hot iron and chase after him, they would have stupidly run to the west of Sichuan to waste their time. By the time they returned from the west of Sichuan, this network would have already become Fourth Fang’s.
Old Madame Qiao’s expression turned slightly better. “Alright, let’s arrange these things earlier. By the way, how’s the progress in the Eastern Campus?”
They were all living in the same house, and the Eastern Campus had been renovated with great fanfare. It was fake to say that they were not jealous. Originally, he had thought that when the Eastern Campus was renovated, those precious flowers would be put away. When the time came, he would fish in troubled waters and bring out a few pots. At the end of the year, his relatives would show up to add taste to the atmosphere. However, he did not want Gu Jingshu, that thoughtful person, to actually forbid anyone from entering the Eastern Campus, not even the people beside her!
If it was normal, she would have forced someone to barge in and bring the things over. However, with the conversation between Qiao Yunxi and the Crown Prince today, she did not dare to act rashly and could only feel aggrieved and aggrieved.
However, once the people from the Changfang Clan left and the relationship between the Fourth Clan and the Marquis Manor grew closer, she did not have to worry about the people from the clan. Even if she told the truth, the Clan Chief did not dare to do anything to her. On the contrary, he had to offer her up like a Bodhisattva.
Thinking that the knot of many years would soon be undone and that the nightmare in her heart would soon become a beautiful dream, Old Madame Qiao temporarily put down her dissatisfaction.
“Let’s leave it like this first. Arrange the matters in the mansion properly. The Marquis’ Mansion needs to move around frequently.”
“Yes, Mother.”
Mansion of Marquis Zhen Yuan.
Gu Jinzhen sat uncontrollably opposite Shen Huaihao. The stubbornness in his eyes made Shen Huaihao both angry and funny.
“So, are you determined not to say anything?”
Gu Jinzhen remained silent.
Shen Huaihao wasn’t annoyed either. “If you don’t tell me, I won’t ask anymore, but you know that it’s still easy for me to find out what I want.”
Gu Jinzhen remained indifferent.
He was very clear about Little Uncle’s methods, and he was even more clear about the abilities of the Shen Clan’s hidden guards. Unless they didn’t want to investigate, there was nothing they couldn’t find out. However, his grudge with the Poison Woman was rather special. That was something that happened in his previous life. Even his little uncle couldn’t find out even if he dug three feet into the ground, so his gaze became even more fearless.
His attitude made Shen Huaihao very helpless. “Since that’s the case, then little uncle has nothing to say. You can do it yourself. However, that Qiao Qiao has closed your grandmother’s eyes, so I will naturally protect her.”
The meaning was obvious. Qiao Yunxi couldn’t move.
Gu Jinzhen didn’t take it seriously.
To kill a Qiao Xi was just a matter of making a move, so he didn’t need to personally take action.
Seeing his nephew’s stubbornness, Shen Huaihao stopped talking. This damn brat was going to be sent back to the capital in a year’s time. The mess there was enough for him to deal with. Qiao Xi had plenty of time to investigate.
After Shen Huaihao left, Tang Yuan poked his head in.
“Master, we’ve found everything.”
Gu Jinzhen buried his head in the box on the table. Tang Yuan continued, “Tong Bin met Third Miss Qiao privately before attending the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Meeting of the Qiao Family.”
Gu Jinzhen frowned irritably.
Tang Yuan shivered and didn’t dare to continue.
The future mistress, Red Apricot, was indeed not a very good thing to cheat on.
“Did you find out what he said?”
“This subordinate didn’t find. However, as far as this subordinate knows, Tong Bin’s character is not good. Before he has a wife, there are more than a dozen people who have opened their houses. In fact, a few months ago, there was even a rumor that a certain person in the house was pregnant with a child and was beaten away by Madam Tong. “Tong Bin has always been interested in Miss Qiao’s Third Son, but he also knows the difference between the two families, so he has always flattered her and obeyed Miss Qiao’s Third Son. He has done a lot of things for her in private.”
Gu Jinzhen felt uncomfortable.
“Master, this subordinate thinks that Tong Bin is obedient to Third Miss Qiao and doesn’t like the way Qiao and the poisonous woman squeeze Third Miss Qiao, so he stands on the righteous side and teaches her a lesson.”
“Of course. Qiao Jinwen is a kind person who has been bullied by the poisonous woman. She then went to Tong Bin and cried a few times. What Tong Bin did was only because he was angry. Helping Qiao’s Third Son stand up for him had nothing to do with Qiao’s Third Son.” Gu Jinzhen didn’t even notice that his address to Qiao Jinwen had become polite and distant. “Tong Bin was originally an impatient person. The most vicious punishment for the poisonous woman was naturally to make her a whore who could do whatever she wanted. Even though she treated a girl like this with dirty methods, she still had to blame the poisonous woman and could not blame anyone else.”
“Master is right.” Gu Jin Zhen felt relieved when Tang Yuan agreed with him perfectly.
Didn’t this happen in his previous life? The poisonous woman bullied Qiao Jinwen. Qiao Jinwen could only endure it. It was really uncomfortable. Occasionally, she would say something in front of him. There was no resentment, no complaint, only a casual one. After that, she continued to smile happily.
He was furious and secretly helped Qiao Jinwen deal with Qiao Yunxi several times. The Poisonous Woman was lucky that she had saved her life every time. Fortunately, the heavens had their eyes on her. In the end, he had risked everything to kill the Poisonous Woman with the same method. Even though he himself had died, he had achieved Qiao Jinwen’s grand dao. It was worth it.
Without the poisonous woman’s poison, Qiao Jinwen would be able to get everything that belonged to her.
“Where’s Mint?” When he spoke again, Gu Jinzhen was in a good mood.
‘”Sir, this subordinate has checked that the mint in the Poisonous Woman’s Yard is wild. It has been several years. Several seeds floating from somewhere have grown. They have been raised half-dead in the corner of the East courtyard. Occasionally, they will be used to make pastries. There is no other use.” Said Tang Yuan seriously.
“East courtyard? Are there any other courtyards?”
“Master, no.”
“No? Have you checked the north courtyard and the north courtyard?” Gu Jinzhen felt very uncomfortable not getting the answer he wanted.
“Master, this subordinate has investigated. The flowers in the Northern Courtyard and the Northern Courtyard are all planted in the Qiao Manor greenhouse. They are all common flowers in Jincheng. Mint is … a plant that can be seen everywhere. The Qiao Family greenhouse does not have any, so the Northern Courtyard and the Northern Courtyard do not have any, and …”
“What else?” Tang Yuan’s hesitation made Gu Jinzhen very dissatisfied.
Tang Yuanxin clenched his teeth and said, “Also, according to the information I found, Third Miss Qiao doesn’t like plants.”
“You don’t like it?” Gu Jinzhen’s suspicions only lasted for a moment before he realized, “She often goes to the Poisonous Woman’s Yard. It is inevitable that her body will be dyed with the fragrance of plants. The mint smell on the embroidered handkerchief was dyed in the Poisonous Woman’s yard.”
Tang Yuan remained silent.
They had never had the right to question Master’s deduction. Besides, Qiao’s Third Son was an irreplaceable existence in Master’s heart. In Master’s eyes, Qiao’s Third Son had a reasonable reason to do anything. Even if there was no reason, Master would think of a reasonable reason. Therefore, as long as he obeyed Master’s words, there would definitely be no problem.
Gu Jinzhen looked at the box on the table with a conflicted expression.
“Master, is this for Miss Qiao’s Third Son?” As a loyal subordinate, it was his duty to help his master out.
Gu Jinzhen suddenly asked, “Am I going overboard today?”
What does this mean?
Tang Yuan immediately became alert.
