The evening ceremony between Wen Liang and Yuan Xueqing was quite satisfactory. After all, Wen Liang was marrying to fill a house, and the Yuan family's reputation was just like that.
Although with the current momentum of the Wen family, there were many guests, but Wen Qiongyu controlled the scene and it was not particularly grand.
Qiao Yuyan and Wen Qiong's help in entertaining the male and female guests was just a formality. When the time came, they would just stop somewhere.
The Xu family of the Qiao family came over. Brother An was not even one year old yet. The family really valued him very much, so he left him in Ninghe Hall for the old lady to take care of him.
Xu Shibian asked in a lowered voice: "Is this Miss Yuan the one who had a good relationship with...Qiao Yuning?"
Seeing Qiao Yuyan's surprised look, Xu's eyes averted a little, but she quickly calmed down again, "Don't worry about it. I just heard them talking, so I just asked them in vain."
Qiao Yuyan thought about it in her heart, and took Mrs. Xu to sit in a secluded place, "Do you still miss her in your heart?"
Mrs. Xu waved her hand helplessly and sighed again, "If I say I don't care at all, I can fool you but I can't fool myself either. I have cared about her for thirteen years, and for thirteen years I have only had this child.
, it’s really something you can hold in your hand.
But now I look back and think, it was actually my fault. She developed such a crooked temperament. Even though it was due to nature and Pei Yayi's deliberate cultivation, I still have the responsibility to raise her."
"Mother!" Qiao Yuyan saw the sad look on Xu's face and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Mrs. Xu took her hand and said, "I told you not to worry too much. I just remembered it accidentally. In my heart, I just think that she is dead and has nothing to do with me. I think so, and I feel better. Otherwise,
, I have put so much thought and effort into it, but I have encountered a complete betrayal."
Qiao Yuyan heard the sadness in Xu's tone and said quickly: "Mom, you are right to think so. In the days to come, with Brother An and me, life will only get better and better. She will go to
What happens next is her own choice, and we have nothing to do with it."
Mrs. Xu came back to her senses, looked at her daughter's face, her eyes were a little moist, "Actually, I know that the person I feel most sorry for is you. I didn't raise you since you were a child, and then I hurt your heart again and again. It's all because of my confusion and you."
Please bear with me.”
"If you say such things again, according to etiquette, I should kneel down." Qiao Yuyan turned her eyes to the many guests over there, "There are so many people here, please give me some face."
"You kid!" Mrs. Xu was stunned, but then she realized that her daughter was diverting her attention, "You're so talkative!"
While they were talking, Song Yuwei came over and looked for her everywhere.
The two people had not seen each other for a long time. The court situation was in turmoil, and Changxinghou Mansion was the first to bear the brunt. This time regarding the posthumous title, Changxinghou's attitude was extremely strong, which had already made the saint unhappy and sent him out directly.
Therefore, the people in the Changxing Marquis Mansion are also very low-key. After Song Yuwei got married, she almost never left the house.
Mrs. Xu smiled and said: "I'm a little tired, Yan'er, go sit in your room!"
This is the reason why Qiao Yuyan can escape from here by sending her there!
Qiao Yuyan sent her maid to explain the reason to Mrs. Chen, and took Mrs. Xu and Song Yuwei to Tao Ranxuan.
Now Tao Ranxuan has completely changed from before.
Wen Tingyuan directly enclosed a large bamboo forest at the back, opened up the two courtyards and the bamboo forest at the back, and created a small garden in his yard.
I also dug a three-foot-wide canal to bring in water from the lake outside. I planted water lilies in the water and raised a few koi carps. I also built a small pavilion next to it and built a beauty bed.
It makes people feel comfortable.
Song Yuwei couldn't help but clicked her tongue and said: "We are both new wives, but your courtyard is much more elegant than my little shabby courtyard."
Qiao Yuyan pursed her lips and smiled, "There's nothing I can do about it. Who made me the sixth wife and you the sixth grandma?"
Speaking of this, Song Yuwei felt depressed again, "You still have the nerve to say it, but you're crushing me!"
The Wen family and the Changxing Marquis Mansion are closely related, so Song Yuwei really wants to call Qiao Yuyan her cousin.
"I just heard outside that your niece-in-law had an accident when she went out!"
"What?" Qiao Yuyan didn't go out all day today. She just went out and only said a few words to Mrs. Xu before she came back. She was really surprised when she heard this.
"My brother-in-law said that the purse given by my aunt was too thin and he refused to carry my eldest sister out!" Song Yuwei has always been well-mannered, so when she mentioned this, she couldn't help but frown, "I really don't know what the Yuan family is thinking."
Qiao Yuyan felt relieved.
Except for one direct descendant, Yuan Xueqing, the Yuan family is full of concubines and concubines. The houses have already been divided, and there are no cousins. It is not just these concubines who contribute.
I didn't get any benefit from Yuan Xueqing's betrothal gift, so I tried to hurt Yuan Xueqing's face here.
He has a gentle temperament, and if he is embarrassed in public, he will probably feel sick in his heart.
Song Yuwei whispered: "It's okay to tell you now. Back then, my grandmother was still thinking of asking me to meet your nephew! But my grandmother has shrewd eyes and would call him a show-off, fearing that I would suffer in the future.
Then he diverted the conversation."
"Oh, what a pity!"
Hearing what Qiao Yuyan said, Song Yuwei couldn't help but be surprised, "How do you say that?"
"Originally we are uncles and nephews!"
Song Yuwei almost spit out her tea, and she was so angry that she pinched Qiao Yuyan's mouth, "Let me see what's in your mouth, you can curse your own sisters like this!"
The two of them had a laugh and joke, talking about what happened in the court.
Logically speaking, Yang, the leader of the Changxing Marquis House, kept a low profile, and Song Yuwei shouldn't be so relaxed.
"Don't worry! It's only been a few days. Do you think my father-in-law is stupid? He took the opportunity to hide out! He had already secretly signed a book for the Holy One and inspected the camp.
Instead of arguing endlessly with those people, it is better to do something practical, that is, your father is in a bad situation, but he is in charge of the Ministry of Etiquette at the moment, which does not please both parties."
Seeing that she knew clearly, Qiao Yuyan stopped talking and the two of them talked about other things.
Song Yuwei blinked at her and said, "I came here today to bring you a gift. Don't say that I have something to do and don't think about my good sisters. I rarely go out, so I brought it to you."
Qiao Yuyan couldn't help but be curious, "A gift? What gift? Let me take a look."
Song Yuwei glanced into the room and said, "I asked the maid in front of you to bring it in, but I told you first that you have to look at this thing by yourself quietly. When you see what it is, the custodian will come and thank me.
.”
This tone was not like Song Yuwei's usual temperament, so that Qiao Yuyan was a little curious about what the gift was.
While the two of them were still waiting to talk, people were already arriving at the table outside.
