So, she needs to get better and better.

Since hope is tied to Shen Qiuhe, the relationship with Shen Qiuhe naturally cannot be so tense.

After Qiao Guxin sent the child back, she originally wanted to wait for Shen Qiuhe for a while, mainly because Xu had just returned home today and was still a little fresh and not very sleepy.

But who knows, I even fell asleep while waiting and still didn’t feel sleepy.

When I woke up in the morning, I realized that Shen Qiuhe had returned after curfew yesterday.

I went to the morning court early today, but the two of them didn't even see each other.

Qiao Guxin combed her hair, and someone reported that it was Mr. He who sent someone to bring pastries. Zhuangzi ate them well, so he learned how to make pastries and made them early this morning. Mr. He ate them. It looked good, so I thought about giving some to Qiao Guxin.

"This is the first time for a big girl to get on the sedan chair." When there was no one around, she clicked her tongue twice, thinking about whether to take it out first and test the poison. Who knew what He would put in it.

Qiao Guxin glanced at the pastry from the corner of her eyes and put the rosary aside, "Just wait two days and bury this pastry."

She had no intention of eating Zhuangzi's food, especially if it was sent by He.

Even if someone tests the poison, she won't worry.

However, the situation will eventually go away, and Nianxiang even rewarded the servant who ran the errands.

To have such a high regard for the servants, to put it bluntly, it means that He is rare and gives He a lot of face.

At noon, Qiao Guxin was checking the general affairs, when someone reported that Mrs. Li's wife was here.

Qiao Guxin raised her eyebrows slightly, "It came quickly." Then she asked the people below to bring Mrs. Li in.

Perhaps it was because of the abundant water in the capital that Mrs. Li looked a little more gentle with her picturesque features. If she looked at her like this, few people would be able to tell that she was the wife of a military general.

In particular, Mrs. Li is dressed in gorgeous clothes, making her look even more radiant.

On the other hand, Qiao Guxin was wearing ordinary clothes and a dark green satin coat draped over her body, adding a bit of stability.

"Mrs. Shen." As soon as Mrs. Li came in, she took the lead in greeting Qiao Guxin.

Qiao Guxin stood up with a smile and invited Mrs. Li to sit down. "I was talking about madam, but she came over without thinking."

"Oh?" Mrs. Li looked curious and raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't know why Qiao Guxin was talking about her.

Qiao Guxin went on to say, "My wife and I have fallen in love. After not seeing each other for a long time, I always feel that something is missing."

After hearing Qiao Guxin's words, Mrs. Li laughed heartily, "I am the same, but I always feel that I can't speak, and I am afraid that if I say something wrong, I will make my wife unhappy."

After saying the polite words, Mrs. Li asked someone to bring the gift she had prepared, "I heard that the Duke's wife was back, and I should have gone to see her, but I heard that the Duke's wife was in poor health, so I didn't dare to go there rashly. "

Mrs. Li came to Beijing from outside, so it was only appropriate to hear about the He family.

Of course, Qiao Guxin also understood the meaning of Mrs. Li's words. Anyone who really wanted to see Mr. He should just say it directly. This sentence about his poor health showed that he had no intention of disturbing her.

The young master of the Li family was studying in the Duke's Mansion, so she came to see Mr. He, so it was understandable.

"My mother-in-law has been in poor health, and she has been on the road these past two days. I heard that she felt very tired when she got up today." Qiao Guxin naturally followed Mrs. Li's words.

Moreover, the two words "hear" are the highlight.

Others don't know that Qiao Guxin has never had to do anything about morning and dusk. She just thinks that as a daughter-in-law, she has to hear that her mother-in-law is in poor health. It seems that Mr. He really doesn't like to see people.

As Mrs. Li sits here, she feels at ease.

The two chatted for a while, and Mrs. Li thought about it again and again before saying, "I'm here today. I really have something I want to discuss with Madam. I hope Madam will forgive me for being abrupt."

"Madam, let me tell you what you have to say. Although Madam and I have little contact, we are very familiar with the Crown Princess." Qiao Guxin said it without hesitation.

The Li family follows the Zhou family, so among the family members, Mrs. Li can naturally be regarded as a member of Zhou Ming.

With this kind of relationship, then everyone is one of our own.

When Mrs. Li heard this, her eyes were filled with smiles, and the expression on her face was much more sincere than before. Probably, she had been dealing with military commanders too much, and Mrs. Li would never say too much when beating around the bush. As soon as Qiao Guxin sent the ladder over

, she followed down without thinking.

Speak directly and clearly.

It was said that when Mrs. Li's natal brothers were getting married, she was thinking of asking Qiao's heart to be the dowry girl.

Qiao Guxin was very happy when he heard this. Was this the red star of the rosary and the incense moving?

"What do you mean, madam, you want my girl to become a concubine?" Qiao Guxin raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Madam Li with a half-smile, but her eyes were a little cold.

Mrs. Li's natal family is naturally a family of officials. It's not that Qiao has any intention to belittle himself, it's just that her status is there.

Even an ordinary lower-level official would not be able to ask for a girl to be his wife.

Mrs. Li was flustered by Qiao Guxin's stare, "You can't say that. How can the person in front of you be an ordinary concubine? If you go, you will be a noble concubine. Moreover, my brother has not married yet, so treat him

If you have a son and a half daughters every day, your position will naturally be secure."

The concubine's status is indeed high, and she is sincere in asking to marry her.

Although it is difficult for a concubine to raise his wife, it can be said that few people can do it, but the noble concubine is different.

If the husband's family likes her, it is not impossible to treat her as an equal wife.

At that time, it will be a big turnaround.

Seeing that Qiao Guxin remained silent, Mrs. Li was a little worried, and quickly explained, "Although my brother is already engaged, the woman's family first said that her father was sick and it was important to take care of him. He has been taking care of him for two years. He originally thought that he would be here this year.

Who knows that her old father has passed away and she still has to observe mourning for three years? Five years have passed, inside and outside, who can wait?"

Therefore, she has already obtained permission from her brother to let her brother bring someone into the house first, and even carry a wife.

"My family treats her with deep affection and loyalty. Even if she comes into the house in the future, she will definitely not waste time on the next person. If Madam is worried, I promise Madam that if the eldest son is born in the future, my natal mother will allow her to have equal rights as a wife."

"As far as the man is concerned, it took you five years to get married, and he has no intention of breaking off the engagement, so he naturally has a deep affection for the woman.

As for Qiao Guxin's promise to be an equal wife, that's just like praying beads and incense.

It really counts, full of sincerity.

On the surface, no one can find fault.

Qiao Guxin twirled the tea cup with her fingers, but did not immediately agree, "I am very touched by Madam's sincerity, but they have been spoiled by me and are afraid that they will not be able to bear such a heavy burden."
