She was originally leaning on the big pillow by the window. When she said this, she sat up straight and looked at Qiao Yuyan with an extremely serious expression.
"This is for..."
Mrs. Xu didn't wait for her to finish asking, then held her hand and shook her head gently, "I can't say much about your Uncle Wen's family affairs, but since he has come to the capital, he should have his own arrangements.
, you will probably know about it in the future."
After saying that, she added, "Just don't cause trouble for him, and don't let anyone know that you know each other."
Aren’t all of Uncle Wen’s family members gone?
Qiao Yuyan was speechless, then she remembered that no one seemed to have said that.
It was just because she thought so that she stayed in the Xu family. Today, it seems that this is not the meaning of Xu's words.
Unfortunately, after returning to the capital in her previous life, Qiao Yuyan had not heard any news about Wen Tingyuan. Even the letters she wrote to the Xu family were like nothing, let alone a reply from Wen Tingyuan.
Seeing her depressed look, Mrs. Xu reached out and stroked her forehead, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't think about these things. Taking care of this big stall at home is not enough for you now?"
After saying that, he asked Huancui to bring in a set of Lu silk middle coat, and said with a smile: "You! Your grandmother raised you too delicately, and you are more picky about clothes than others. These are the two clothes I made for you.
The cover and the stitches are all rubbed into it, so it won’t hurt you, so just change it and wear it!”
Qiao Yuyan was stunned and took the clothes in the tray. The material was smooth and comfortable, and the stitching was fine. At first glance, she could tell that it was made with great care, and she couldn't help but feel a little confused.
She had forgotten that after returning to the capital, her intimate clothes, including shoes and socks, were all made by Xu herself.
After Xu passed away, she never wore such thoughtful and comfortable clothes again.
The memory buried deep in my heart was suddenly awakened.
In fact, she had enjoyed such tender maternal love, but because of the unfamiliarity between the two, this maternal love became shallow in her memory, and in just one year, she was unable to imprint it deeply.
in mind.
However, after experiencing so many things later, she was still the little girl who was pampered in the palm of her hand. She no longer had such detailed requirements for the clothes inside.
When I heard Xu's words today, I felt a little at a loss.
Seemingly because her daughter's expression was not normal, Ms. Xu was a little confused and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qiao Yuyan raised her head, looked at her mother, twitched her lips, and smiled covertly, "Why is my mother making clothes for me? My younger brother and sister will be born next year, so I should make good preparations for him."
Mentioning the child in her belly, Mrs. Xu's face naturally put on a happy smile, "He's still early! And small things are easy to make. I'm afraid that I won't be able to make such big things after a while."
I’ve got some clothes, I’ll prepare them for you for a while.”
"In the past, I was ignorant, so I acted petty. Now I am not a child, so why am I so squeamish? Mother, please don't waste your time on me in the future. Now that you are heavy, you should have a good rest."
The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and then Qiao Yuyan walked out of Xu's house and planned to go to the flower hall in front to read the account books. After much hesitation, she called Mother Liu over.
"Madam and Aunt Pei..." Grandma Liu hesitated, and after thinking for a while, she said, "The girl handed over Aunt Pei as Madam's handkerchief. Madam has great trust in Aunt Pei."
This is true. After so many days of observation, Xu's trust in Pei Yayi is almost beyond her comprehension.
Even when Qiao Weisheng stayed at Qiyun Pavilion at night, Mrs. Xu was not unhappy at all and treated them as she always was.
In the past, their relationship as husband and wife seemed to be very harmonious.
Since Xu was pregnant, Qiao Weisheng had to visit Furong Pavilion once or twice a day. Except for one or two nights in Qiyun Pavilion, he also stayed at Furong Pavilion.
On weekdays, she is also very concerned about Xu's diet.
Can you really tolerate your husband's feelings for other women?
Qiao Yuyan recalled the scene in her previous life when Wen Liang recruited a servant from the Tongfang for the first time after she married into the Wen family.
At that time, she almost stayed up all night, tossing and turning on the bed, her mind filled with thoughts of his tenderness towards other women.
So she couldn't understand this anyway.
"Is everything okay in the yard?"
"I have listened to the girl and checked everything carefully." Aunt Liu frowned and shook her head. "There is nothing abnormal. Even the little girls below are very honest and do not run out."
Then he hesitated and said: "Or maybe it happens to be among the few that the master sells?"
It means that the people who sold it out to deal with the rumors some time ago have no movement at the moment. Isn’t this the most likely situation?
Qiao Yuyan felt a little irritable while sitting in the flower hall.
Now that she was so calm, she felt uneasy.
Aunt Liu didn't know that Aunt Pei was harboring evil intentions, and she might have felt reassured because she didn't find anything unusual.
But she knew that those eyes that hated them had been staring at them firmly.
The most irritating thing is that she only knows that the other party will definitely harm Xu, but she doesn't know when and what means she will use. It's like a sword hanging over her head that will fall at any time.
At this time, the mansion was about to start preparing for the Dragon Boat Festival. Qiao Yuyan looked at the account book of last year's transactions and suddenly remembered something, "Where is Aunt Pei's natal family? Why haven't they seen any transactions with our mansion?"
As for an aunt, once she enters the house, she is half a slave, and she is not allowed to visit during the New Year.
But looking at the relationship between Mrs. Xu and Pei Yayi, according to Mrs. Xu's character, it's impossible not to give her some respect, so she should also send a gift to the Pei family.
"Young lady, don't you know?" The speaker was an oval-faced maid who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was smiling and bringing a cup of white fungus soup to Qiao Yuyan.
Qiao Yuyan heard her voice and quickly took it over, "Sister, I am the old lady's person, how come you come to my place and start doing work like serving tea and water? If it gets spread, it will be thought that I disrespect my grandmother!"
This maid's name is Pinlan, and she was given to her by the old lady. She must have been worried because she dared to attack Prince An!
When she brought it over, Aunt Zhao specifically said, "If the girl doesn't know about some things in the house, just ask her."
Although the old lady never gave him a good look, just looking at this maid, Qiao Yuyan knew that the old lady actually recognized him in her heart.
When Pinlan heard this, the smile on her face deepened, "Since the slave has come to serve the girl, as long as he serves the girl well, he is a good servant. This is all work, how can there be distinction between high and low?
?”
Qiao Yuyan asked her to sit down, but she couldn't refuse, so she leaned down and sat on the stool, talking about Aunt Pei's natal family.
