Qiao Yuyan looked around, and Mrs. Wen probably knew that her current behavior was not appropriate, so she just blocked her on the path.
"Madam, don't you want Brother Liang to participate in this year's Spring Festival?"
Seeing her smiling and talking, Mrs. Wen felt a tightness in her chest, couldn't help coughing twice more, and then said coldly: "You can't use this matter to control me!"
"I don't understand what the eldest lady is saying," Qiao Yuyan picked a leaf casually, "Why should I control you?"
Seeing that Mrs. Wen didn't say anything, Qiao Yuyan leaned in front of her and said, "Is it because Mrs. Wen has done a lot of sorry things to me in the past, so she feels so guilty now?"
"I feel so guilty..."
"As long as you don't feel guilty," Qiao Yuyan said with a smile before she finished speaking, "There's no need to feel guilty, in fact, my purpose is very simple.
Chunwei Tingyuan is going to participate, and he will inevitably become an official at that time. Who can say for sure what happens in the officialdom? In any case, everyone is named Wen, so they are naturally in the same camp. We naturally hope that the power of the Wen family will grow.
Some."
Mrs. Wen stared intently at Qiao Yuyan's face, as if she wanted to see some flaw in her face.
But Qiao Yuyan's face was full of energy and there was no flaw in it.
But Qiao Yuyan saw that she was still on guard, so she smiled and said: "The eldest lady is not good at taking care of the house now. I think Sanlang's wife is good. If the old lady's family is separated in a hundred years, the elders will
The room is not empty."
"You're kidding me!"
Hearing what Mrs. Wen said, Qiao Yuyan really smiled, "If you don't believe it, you still won't believe it no matter what I say.
But isn’t what I’m talking about what worries you? Nowadays, the children in the third bedroom are about to become enlightened. What can you do if Brother Liang is still stuck at home with no place to live?
If I were you, I would seize this opportunity right now. Even if Chunwei fails to pass the Jinshi examination, at least it will let people know that he has the honor of being a civil servant, and then the most important thing is to arrange a marriage properly."
After saying that, she ignored Mrs. Wen and walked directly to Taoranju, holding Qixi's hand. She took two steps and suddenly stopped again, "Oh, by the way, the old lady just said that this matter has something to do with me, brother.
Over there, it’s up to me to tell you.”
Based on Qiao Yuyan's understanding of Mrs. Wen, when she doubts someone, she won't believe it no matter how clear the explanation is.
But now, whether she believed it or not, she had no control over this matter.
You can neither go to Wen Qiong to say anything, nor can you urge Qiao Yuyan to go out.
Therefore, in the following days, she could only worry on the sidelines, making people pay attention to Tao Ranxuan's movements.
Especially as the day is getting closer, whether Wen Liang can go depends on Qiao Yuyan's words.
Mrs. Wen never thought that she would be begging Qiao Yuyan like this one day.
But after what she said last time, she didn't have the shame to speak to Tao Ranxuan.
Wen Liang was worried, "Mom, are you sure that Mr. Qiao said this in my grandmother's house? But until now, my father has not come to tell me about this..."
Mrs. Wen was also anxious, but could do nothing.
Wen Liang looked at his mother's obviously much weaker body and felt extremely hesitant.
A few days ago, he received a note from Qiao Yuning secretly sent to someone, and then he realized how miserable she had been during this time.
He couldn't even remember how long it had been since they last met.
She was his concubine and was locked up in a courtyard with six rooms. Is there such an unreasonable and unruly thing in this world?
But he has no choice, he has no say in this family.
If he can attend the Spring Festival and pass the Jinshi examination, he will become an official.
With his official status, he would naturally have the confidence to speak at home, and he could confidently bring Ning'er back.
Seeing the sadness on her son's face, Mrs. Wen couldn't bear it anymore. She held the maid's hand and stood up, "Today is the last day. If I don't tell him his name, I'm afraid it will be too late."
Wen Liang immediately looked at her with hopeful eyes, "Mom, are you going to Taoranju?"
Mrs. Wen felt embarrassed for a moment. She actually wanted to lower her head and beg Qiao Yuyan!
That Mrs. Qiao did it on purpose. If she hadn't said this in Yi'an Juli that day, she wouldn't have thought about letting her son take the spring exam.
But it was her words that gave her hope and expectation in her heart, and she was no longer willing to let her son miss this opportunity.
She just wanted to see herself suffer like this...
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wen was suddenly startled and suddenly understood.
This was clearly Qiao Yuyan's trick. Since she could say those words in Yi'an Juli, there was no reason to break her promise.
She will definitely explain to Wen Qiong and there, but she is just deliberately hanging herself like this.
After thinking about this section clearly, Mrs. Wen was no longer in a hurry. Why bother asking for trouble? Qiao Yuyan still had to talk about it anyway.
But after she put her mind down, she changed her mind again.
What if Mr. Qiao just doesn’t say it? Then I can find any excuse to fool him...
Even if she forgets a word? Will the old lady and the master still blame her?
But for his son, this is a matter of his future!
This spring ceremony is the first time that the new emperor takes scholars after he ascends the throne. If he can be selected in this imperial examination, he will definitely leave more impression on the new emperor, and his future career will be smoother...
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wen couldn't sit still any longer, "I'll go and talk to her. Since she can speak that way, she can't just keep her words!"
Wen Liang was overjoyed immediately, but he still remembered to salute Mrs. Wen, so he simply knelt down firmly and said, "Son, thank you mother. It is unfilial to ask you to endure shame for me at such an old age. I will wait for my son in the future."
When you get ahead, you must never forget your mother's kindness today."
Mrs. Wen felt much more comfortable after hearing this, and her eyes showed some kindness, "Silly child, why are you saying such polite words to your mother?"
Now that she had decided, she no longer hesitated and led the maid in the direction of Tao Ranxuan, not caring whether anyone was looking behind her.
Unexpectedly, she met Wen Qiong and Wen on the road. Mrs. Wen couldn't help being surprised, "Why didn't you come to the inner courtyard today?"
Wen Qiong looked her up and down, but didn't ask any questions. Instead, she turned around and walked towards the main courtyard, "Seeing that spring is coming, the sixth brother and sister came to me specifically to tell me that I should let go of the past, or should I call her
Brother Liang is going to take an exam, didn’t I come here specifically for this matter?”
Mrs. Wen was immediately overjoyed. When Wen Liang got the news, a stone fell from her heart.
He wanted to say something more, but was dismissed by Wen Qiongyu, "Seeing that the exam is about to happen, why don't you hurry up and hug the Buddha?"
After Wen Liang left, Wen Qiong said to Cai, "Besides, there is one more thing I want to tell you."
