"Speaking of Fourth Young Master Wen?" Qiao Yuning was a little careless, and then snorted lightly, "Four Young Master Wen has an outstanding character, and when you see him, you will naturally..."
At this point, she frowned and said, "You mean..."
Seeing the expression on her face, Tinghe could only nod lightly, "When the eldest girl came out, she talked to Aunt Liu in the yard for a while. She seemed a little undecided. She heard Aunt Liu praising the fourth young master.
, the eldest girl blushed in a rare moment, and asked Aunt Liu not to tell anyone."
Qiao Yuning immediately clenched her fists, "Did Mrs. Wen already tell her about Qiao Yuyan when she came that day?!"
How dare this Tinghe talk nonsense?
After thinking for a long time, she made a suggestion: "Mrs. Wen may not have said it, but she seems to mean it, otherwise she wouldn't have mentioned it to the eldest girl who has not yet left the court. I think the girl should go to Pei."
Auntie, let's discuss it and decide whether this should be done sooner rather than later. If the Wen family raises it with the wife at any time, it will be too late."
Qiao Yuning immediately became flustered. She knew that her chances of winning were low, so she planned to start with Wen Liang.
After all, she is the daughter of the Qiao family. If Wen Liang fell in love with her, would he still force Qiao Yuyan to go to her?
But right now, she and Wen Liang haven't developed to that stage yet! If they decide it now, what will she do?
Thinking of this, Qiao Yuning couldn't sit still anymore. She didn't care much and went straight to Qiyun Pavilion.
As soon as I came over, I saw the Zhao family leaving in a hurry.
"Mom, what's wrong with the Zhao family? Why do you look wrong?"
They are all their own people in Qiyun Pavilion. Here, Qiao Yuning never calls her Aunt Pei Yayi.
Seeing her daughter coming over, Aunt Pei put away the sadness on her face and said with a smile: "What's the big deal? It's just a trivial matter outside. Why are you here?"
Mother and daughter entered the inner room, and Qiao Yuning told Ting He what had just happened.
Aunt Pei nodded lightly, but there was no worry on her face. She just smiled and stroked her daughter's long hair, "It's just a shadow. Then Mrs. Wen takes the initiative to marry our family, so naturally her priority is Qiao Yuyan, but she is just a shadow."
Isn’t this just a relationship between two families? Why are you panicking?"
"But...but if she said it, wouldn't it be too late for me?"
Qiao Yuning, however, could not be as present as her biological mother, with a worried look on her face.
"Morning! The Fourth Young Master is going to have a big competition this year. Do you think his mother will be willing to arrange a marriage for him before he takes the imperial examination and disturb his mind?"
Aunt Pei's words immediately made Qiao Yuning's eyes light up, and the melancholy just now was swept away.
"You!" Pei Yayi reached out and tapped her daughter's forehead, and said with a smile, "Now you just have to do two things well. The position of Grandma Wen Si cannot be lost to you."
"Um?"
"First, firmly grasp the heart of the Fourth Young Master. This...Mother believes you can do it. This man! Don't listen to mother. When his heart goes astray, it will be like eight cows."
If he doesn't come back, then you will see how determined he is towards you."
Thinking of Wen Liang's greetings to her in that letter, the smile on Qiao Yuning's face was slightly shy.
"Second, go to your wife's house more often when you have time. She always loves you, but why have you gone less recently?"
"Qiao Yuyan is always there every day, which makes me feel disgusted, as if she is afraid that I won't know that she is my biological child. If I have time to please my wife, I might as well be more filial to my mother!"
Nestled in her mother's arms, Qiao Yuning no longer had to pretend to be gentle and sensible. It felt much better to say anything than at Furong Pavilion.
"Nonsense!" Pei Yayi pushed her daughter up in her arms and her face became serious, "Since you know where Qiao Yuyan goes every day, you shouldn't slack off. You coaxed her to love you so much in the past. What's wrong now at this critical moment?
Can you give up?"
Seeing that her daughter was a little unconvinced, Pei Yayi spoke even more earnestly, "When the marriage is put on the agenda and Fourth Young Master Wen makes a fuss, if you continue to beg your wife in private, she will relent and fight for you, saying
Maybe you can still get the old lady and the master to remember your name and give you a lot of dowry. If you don't go at this time, you blame her for Qiao Yuyan? Do you really want Qiao Yuyan to marry the Fourth Young Master?
Can’t make it?”
Recorded in Xu's name? Doesn't she also have the title of legitimate daughter?
Qiao Yuning's eyes lit up. Ever since Qiao Yuyan returned to Qiao's house, the eyes inside and outside seemed to remind her that she was a concubine.
No matter how miserable Qiao Yuyan is, he is still more noble than her.
What if... what if she is also a legitimate daughter?
Qiao Yuning's almond-shaped eyes sparkled under the light, and she felt that her mother was so outstanding, good-looking, gentle, and smart, but she was just a concubine, which really made her feel depressed.
Suddenly, his eyes caught sight of Aunt Pei's clothes. They seemed to have been made last year and the colors were no longer bright. He asked in surprise: "Mom, dad... haven't you been here for a long time?"
The smile on Aunt Pei's face was immediately shattered by this sentence, and her expression returned to normal after a while, "Your father...has been busy recently, and my wife is pregnant and has been feeling unwell for three days. How can you be so nice to me?"
Are you running this way?"
Qiao Yuning then remembered the night before the earthquake, when the whole house was alarmed. The mother and daughter were even scolded by Qiao Weisheng, but nothing happened. Even the earthquake was fine at that time.
He couldn't help curling his lips, "My wife is being pretentious now."
"Be careful what you say!" Aunt Pei immediately stretched out her hand to press her shoulders, "How can you say such nonsense? What did I just tell you?"
Qiao Yuning pursed her lips, stopped talking about this topic, and turned to Wen Liang.
In fact, this is not Pei Yayi's prevarication. Qiao Weisheng has indeed been very busy with official matters recently.
Still because of the earthquake that day, a few days ago, because of the rumors in the capital, the Holy Emperor personally went to the outskirts of the capital to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, and finally suppressed the rumors gradually.
Who would have expected that rumors would come back again in the past few days. The opportunity was that the Buddhist Scripture Pagoda that the Empress Dowager often visited before the Daxiangguo Temple caught fire. In fact, the fire did not actually burn, but it became the source of the rumors.
Things like rumors have little to do with the Ministry of Rites, but they were first related to the late emperor's life sacrifice, and then they were related to Buddhism. Now the Holy Emperor is furious, and they have no clue, but they have to wait and see.
Waiting for the above instructions, we have to think of various corresponding countermeasures, although they will be rejected without exception.
This is completely different from Qiao Yuyan's previous life. At this time in the previous life, the Holy Emperor's edicts on sin and self had already been issued.
Seeing that her father was getting angry every day and her mother was worried about her husband and was restless in eating and sleeping, Qiao Yuyan went to see Grandma Wang.
