"The old lady has not forgotten whose students my father and uncle are, right?"
Wen Qiongyu's words made the faint smile on the old lady's face suddenly disappear.
Qiao Weisheng thought for a while and asked hesitantly, "Brother Shi, you mean...the master of the Song family?"
"Although Mr. Song was that gentleman in the past, the Holy Emperor had no intention of blaming Mr. Song for that matter, but Mr. Song still begged for his death and set strict rules for his clan."
Wen Qiongyu's words made everyone fall into deep thought, and the old lady nodded, "That's right. When Mr. Song suddenly retired and refused to allow the disciples of the clan to become officials, many people couldn't see through it.
At that time, many people said that Mr. Song had clearly seen the attitude of his superiors and only used this method to express his position so that the Song family could avoid disaster."
Mrs. Wen then answered, "After knowing this, I thought about it. If something really comes out and can disappear quietly under the eyes of the shadow guard, then Mr. Song will take action.
That makes sense."
Qiao Yuyan also frowned, and she thought vaguely in her mind. No wonder the relationship between the old lady and the old lady of the Song family, and the relationship between the Song and Qiao families have been weak over the years. Maybe this is the intention of the Song family.
The most likely possibility is that the three families made an agreement at the beginning to try to avoid suspicion.
But he didn't expect that after the three old people passed away one after another, the Wen Qiao family would still get married.
Qiao Yuyan remembered what happened to the Song family last time.
At that time, I thought the sudden appearance of Shadow Guard was because of Zhang Lun, but now it seems that the real root cause is what happened back then.
The most frightening thing is that this organization that scares everyone has never really been destroyed, but has been hidden deeper.
The old lady and Qiao Yuyan looked at each other, and both saw their own speculations in each other's eyes.
That time, because of the tent hook incident, the Song family found out that there was something wrong with their servants, but later they left the matter undisclosed and could not investigate further.
It seems that it has something to do with this matter.
"The fifth day of next month is the Buddha's Christmas. Let's send a message to the Song family and meet at Daxiangguo Temple!" the old lady suggested.
Wen Qiong said to Que: "There are still more than ten days, how can we wait?"
"We have to wait," Old Mrs. Wen immediately interrupted him. "Since the shadow guards are still there and have made moves recently, it means that they have begun to suspect that our three families are meeting now. Are you afraid that others will not know about it?"
Hearing what his mother said, Wen Qiong nodded in agreement.
The old lady hesitated for a long time before making up her mind, "My dear, now that we have reached this point, I have nothing to hide. My uncle has almost no private property of his own, and everything is entrusted to me for safekeeping.
I really didn’t find anything unusual about him, so I dare to ask you, where are you..."
When Old Mrs. Wen heard this, she snorted coldly, "No one is as clean as your house. I really don't know if his father gave anything important to others. I'm afraid it's better to find it from us."
It’s hard to open your house!”
When she said this, her eyes glanced at Wen Tingyuan's face intentionally or unintentionally. It was obvious that she had not let go of what happened back then.
The old lady was afraid that she would dislike Wen Tingyuan. After all, he was Qiao Yuyan's future husband and had a bearing on Qiao Yuyan's future life.
So I immediately found a different topic and diverted this matter.
After everything has been said, you can't just go back, you have to do the whole show.
So the group of people left the waterside pavilion and played in the garden for a long time before hearing the food being passed down from the front.
Unexpectedly, after walking only a few steps, there was a sudden noise ahead. Qiao Yuyan heard Pinlan's voice and quickly told her elders to go forward.
But the commotion on the other end had already happened, and Qiao Yuning was seen wearing a long water-red jacket, with her hair in an exquisite bun, and twisting with a few people to come this way.
Pinlan and Huancui obviously wanted to stop her, but Qiao Yuning almost struggled with her and came over.
"What are you doing? What kind of behavior is this?"
Before Qiao Yuyan could speak, the old lady scolded her, and the three people over there immediately stopped moving.
The faces of the Wen family are also a little ugly, especially Mrs. Wen. After all, Qiao Yuning is now not only the daughter of the Qiao family, but also the aunt of the Wen family.
What would your parents think if you suddenly appeared at your parents' house like this and made such a fuss?
Mrs. Wen's gloomy gaze fell on Mrs. Wen, who had not spoken a word until now.
Mrs. Wen was also in a dilemma at this time. If she were in the Wen family, she would naturally reprimand her, but now she was in the Qiao family. Logically speaking, Qiao Yuning could be considered a guest of the Qiao family. How could she speak easily?
In the end, I could only ask dryly with an embarrassed face: "Why are you here? Why didn't you tell me that you were going back to your parents' home?"
Qiao Yuning's eyes just glanced at Mrs. Wen lightly, with no intention of replying to her.
Her eyes finally fell on the old lady, "Ning'er heard that my grandmother was ill, and she was so anxious that she came over without even having time to ask her elders for instructions. She was also filial."
She finished speaking hastily and glanced behind the old lady, "I just heard that my aunt has been serving my grandmother. I think it is now that my aunt has grown up that she can win the favor of my grandmother. This is her blessing. By the way, grandma
, why isn’t my aunt accompanying you, old man? You won’t make grandma unhappy again, right?”
It was obvious that he had heard some news and came here to ask for help.
Seeing the ugly look on the old lady's face, Qiao Yuyan quickly frowned and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?! Can't you see what kind of occasion this is? Could it be that my grandfather and father are having a banquet and they have to bring a concubine with them?!"
This was directly saying that Aunt Pei was not worthy of being on the stage. Qiao Yuning was so angry that her eyes were red, "Sister, what you said is wrong. My aunt is a noble concubine, and she is also the sworn sister of Concubine Hui. Why can't she come out to receive guests?"
"What an unruly thing! Your parents-in-law and grandmother-in-law are still here, and all your usual rules have gone to the dog's belly?!" Qiao Weisheng now sees Qiao Yuning and thinks of Pei Yayi lurking in the house, and this girl.
How could he have allowed her to live if he had not been his own flesh and blood for the trouble he had done under the noses of his husband and wife.
Out of sight and out of mind here, she actually jumped out to make a fuss.
When the Wen family saw the Qiao family's attitude, their hearts went into their stomachs. At the same time, they also saw that Qiao Yuning was not popular in her parents' family.
And she still has such a biological mother, so the Qiao family will never pay attention to her again.
Qiao Yuning's face did not change at all when she heard her father's words, "Isn't my father always aware of how well I have learned the rules? Why do I need to express my love at this time?!"
