"Qiao Yiyue, what nonsense are you talking about, who taught you these words!"
After reacting, Qiao Yingxuan became angry first, walked to the couch in a few strides, pulled Qiao Yiyue's arm and pulled the child to his side, and asked sharply, but his appearance obviously frightened the little girl, Qiao Yiyue burst into tears Get up, how can you know how to answer.
"..."
Seeing her great-granddaughter crying in fright, the old lady moved her lips, but seeing her elder grandson's pale face and hands clenched tightly on the armrest of the chair, she still didn't make a sound to stop Qiao Yingxuan.
Now that they live in a house, the property they have is small, the supplements they eat and the good materials they wear are not bought by Gong Zhuoliang. I also sincerely believe that they are a family, but today such a wolf-hearted thing happened in this family, and they all provoked the children. This matter really should be explained, so that the Ze'er family can't feel cold.
"Xuan'er, why did you get angry with the child? I think those maids and mother-in-laws chewed their tongues for Yue'er to hear. If they find out, they will be kicked out. Zhuo Liang, don't mind."
Seeing this, the old lady hurriedly smoothed things over, but Qiao Yingxuan was so annoyed right now, she refused to give up after hearing the words, and couldn't help but cast her angry eyes on Yang Yingmo, after all, Yang Yingmo was in charge of everything at home, and the children were there to serve her. The choice is even more careful, so what happened today, even if it did not reflect the thoughts of her as the head of the house, it was also caused by her improper discipline.
"It's just a child's naughty talk, so it's not worth taking seriously."
Seeing the helplessness of the old lady and Yang Yingmo's grievances, Gong Zhuoliang suppressed his anger and smiled lightly, got up and hugged Qiao Minyan and Gong Jinxian who were staring blankly at the crowd, and looked at the two little guys Even though they were ignorant, they looked anxious, knowing that although they couldn't fully understand, they also understood that what Qiao Yiyue said was not good, it really hurts.
"Daddy, brother, my brother is mine!"
Falling into the familiar embrace, Gong Jinxian dropped the golden bean aggrievedly, clung to Qiao Minyan's arm and refused to let go, and Qiao Minyan also rarely showed an angry look, glaring at the crying Qiao Yiyue After a while, he hurried back to coax Gong Jinxian with his arms around him, and then couldn't help but turn his head to stare at her again.
"Yes, both Xian'er and Yan'er are father's treasures, we are a family."
Touching the heads of the two children with pity, Qiao Yingze sighed shyly in his heart. He didn't expect these people in the room to be truly loving mothers, filial sons, and happy families, but even if they only maintained the superficial harmony, he would Already very contented, how much wronged did Gong Zhuoliang suffer for these family members, but in the end
Forget it, from now on, the husband and wife only need to have a clear conscience, and the rest really doesn't matter.
"Uncle, sister-in-law, it's all because of the misconduct of the younger siblings. The younger siblings are here to apologize to you, and I will definitely give you an explanation. Dai's family, you are the nanny in charge of the children's house. This is how you teach young masters and misses on weekdays." Is it? This family can't keep a black-hearted person like you!"
Yang Yingmo was aggrieved in her heart, but on the surface she had to take all the faults on herself, who let the word filial piety be suppressed here! Thinking of this, Yang Yingmo glanced at Mrs. Qiao who was still sitting still, and sharply reprimanded Qiao Yiyue and Qiao Minren's nanny Dai's wife.
"Ma'am, this servant, I know I was wrong, Madam, let me forgive this time..."
The words she wanted to cry out for injustice were swallowed back into her stomach, and the always prudent daughter-in-law of the Dai family fell to her knees with red eyes. What can she say when she encounters such an unlucky thing? If I admit it, there is still a way out. If I really bite the master, it will be death.
"Don't push out the nanny, don't push out the nanny, it's grandma..."
Originally, Qiao Minren sobbed because of Qiao Yiyue's crying. He was being held in Yang Yingmo's arms. Hearing that his mother was going to drive away the nanny who loved him the most, the little guy couldn't help but also made a fuss, and was covered by Yang Yingmo Behind his mouth, he burst into tears even more aggrieved. He didn't understand, it was his grandmother who said it, and his mother heard it too, why did he drive away his loving nanny
"What nonsense are you talking about! Yang Yingmo is a good son you taught, what are you trying to frame your mother-in-law for? You unfilial and jealous woman!"
As soon as Qiao Minren's words came out, Mrs. Qiao's head exploded, and she stood up screaming and pointed at Yang Yingmo's nose to scold. The shrew-like posture shocked Qiao Yingze and Gong Zhuoliang, who saw her go crazy for the first time.
Although as early as the past two years of correspondence, they knew that Mrs. Qiao also suffered from mild madness and was irritable and irritable, but seeing it with their own eyes today, it really feels a little different.
"That's enough, why don't you take your wife back to the house to rest! Ze'er and his wife stay here, everyone else should leave and go out!"
The old lady got a headache from the noise of the room, she glanced at Yang Yingmo, who was holding her son in tears, and put the little grandson in her arms to the nanny, and then drove them all out of the house. Only Qiao Yingze and his family were left behind.
"Zer, come here."
After everyone left, the old lady let out a long sigh, patted the couch and signaled them all to come and sit down.
"Grandmother..."
Qiao Yingze and Gong Zhuoliang put their sons on the couch, and then sat down beside the old lady, one on the left and one on the right. Just as they were about to say something that the old man didn't need to worry about, the old lady held one of their hands and gave stacked on her own lap.
"Grandma knows that you have been suffering all these years, Zhuo Liang, since your sister was in our house, she has not let her live a happy life for a few days, now it is you, grandma still can't help you, I feel really sad Very guilty."
The old lady clasped the hands of the two of them, sighed and said what was in her heart. Although she was old, she was still not confused. How to deal with Qiao Yingxuan, the gap here is not a star and a half, she knows it in her heart, but in the current situation, even if she has the heart, what can she do for the eldest grandson and his wife? She could only keep a bowl of water level, and she even had to turn her face to the side of the second bedroom family, otherwise it would only make it more difficult for their brothers and sisters-in-law to get along with each other.
"Grandmother, don't say that. Your love and care for our siblings is clear in Zhuo Liang's heart. As for Ying Ze and me, you can rest assured that we are really good." of."
Gong Zhuoliang knew the old lady's love for Qiao Yingze and him, and understood her difficulties, so he never complained. Even if Qiao Yingze didn't mention it in the past few years, the things he sent to the old lady were all worthless. It is to choose the best, this filial piety is not adulterated at all.
"Yes, grandma, you don't have to worry about us, we are fine."
Qiao Yingze also hurriedly opened his mouth to agree, and put his other hand on the old lady's.
"You are all good children, Zhuo Liang. Ze'er has been in poor health since he was a child. He is thoughtful and sensitive. I will have to take care of him from now on. You should take care of him more. Ze'er, grandma knows that you love your brother. , but you can't help them walk for a lifetime, they only know how to walk the road if they have really fallen and hurt, you have to learn to let go... "
Touching Qiao Yingze's handsome face with a good complexion, the old lady's eyes were filled with relief. Apart from her thin body, Qiao Yingze is not at all as sick as before...
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX The warm and harmonious atmosphere in the same room is different, and the expressions of the other people who were kicked out are different. Qiao Yingxuan asked Yang Yingmo to carry the child back to the house with a cold face, and then ordered his servants to take Master Qiao and Mrs. Qiao He sent them back to the yard to take good care of them, while he personally sent Qiao Yuanyin's mother and son to the sedan chair, and told her not to take offense.
"Second brother is out of touch by saying that. My sister is the one who doesn't understand the truth. The second brother is really not easy. The eldest brother and sister-in-law don't need to worry about the second brother. They are the most considerate of the second brother."
Qiao Yuanyin hugged her son Zhang Lu and comforted Qiao Yingxuan softly, and at the end she held Zhang Lu's little hand to let him say goodbye to her second uncle, she couldn't hide the happiness in her eyes.
"Second uncle, goodbye."
Zhang Lu grabbed the plush toy his brothers gave him, arched his body and shook it towards Qiao Yingxuan, two sweet dimples appeared on his smiling face.
"You're so good. My sister apologizes to my brother-in-law for the second brother. I can't drink with him today. When I'm free, the second brother goes to see you."
Rao Qiao Yingxuan was on fire, and when he saw the cute little Zhang Lu, he also showed a smile. He touched his little nephew's head, then opened the sedan chair curtain to let Qiao Yuanyin sit in, and then changed to Zhang's house when he got to the side door. Waiting for the carriage there to go back.
Along the way, Qiao Yingxuan returned to her room with a cold face, and saw Yang Yingmo sitting on the couch outside, while Qiao Yiyue and Qiao Minren were sitting next to her pitifully. The old Qiao Minyi was not in the room, and he must have been carried back to his own room by the nanny.
"Master, the children are still young, how can they know what they can say and what they can't say, so don't blame them, it's all the negligence of the concubine, the mother."
Seeing Qiao Yingxuan entered the room, Yang Yingmo hurriedly got up and blessed him, with a worried and self-blame look on her face, as if she was very worried that Qiao Yingxuan would scold the child.
"... Neglect? Ma'am, I know you are the eldest lady from a rich family. It is really a grievance for me to be a martial artist. I have respected you and let you in all these years. I just hope that the family can live in harmony. I Knowing that your mother gave you some embarrassment after she came back, but don’t you know why she treats you like this? Think how much she loved you back then, and she’s still sick now, so why don’t you just let her go? How much resentment does it have to make her feel ashamed in front of the whole family?"
Qiao Yingxuan originally didn't want to get angry in front of the children, but Yang Yingmo's attitude really made him want to bear it. Over the past few years, Qiao Yingxuan thought that he had fulfilled his duty as a husband, even if he was laughed at by his friends, he would just laugh it off, but Yang Yingmo was never satisfied with him.
And ever since her grandmother and the others entered Beijing, Yang Yingmo held onto her power even more tightly. On the surface, she gave her grandma and the others high, but in fact she had to care about food and clothing everywhere. The family has a poor foundation, so that for the sake of his grandson's face, the grandmother secretly used the filial food, food and clothing of the eldest brother and the others to supplement the family...
If it was just the friction between their husband and wife, then as a man, Qiao Yingxuan could not care about it, but as a grandson and a son, it would be unfilial for him to let his daughter-in-law compete with his grandmother and mother for power, and he would definitely not be able to bear it .
"Why does my husband think so much about my concubine's status? My concubine made rules in front of her mother-in-law just after confinement. There is no point of disrespect. My husband's words like this are really going to kill my concubine!"
Yang Yingmo had never seen Qiao Yingxuan lose such a temper with her before, she was startled and angry for a while, she couldn't hold back her weak expression just now, but she still held back her temper.
"You set rules in front of your mother every day, and you never let your mother get along with the children alone. Would you know that your mother said these things in front of the children? Do you know that Ren'er really doesn't know her heart? Lying, and trying to kick out his favorite nanny in front of him!"
Perhaps Qiao Yiyue's words today were just an accident, but Qiao Yingxuan's subsequent development dared to be said to be the result of Yang Yingmo's induction, and if she thought of her brother and good brother in her heart, after the children heard their grandmother's nonsense, She should be able to teach the children in a good way, instead of letting them listen to and believe in others and hurt others.
"I... as a concubine, I have to honor my mother-in-law and be a housekeeper for the past two months. I am already struggling with my body. I don't have the energy to take care of those two gossips. Whether the child can remember, today I will pick Dai's family." It is also because she is in charge of the children's house, and she has never considered anything else, how come the concubine has become such a scheming woman in the heart of the husband?"
Yang Yingmo's tears were already red when she spoke, she turned around and sat down on the edge of the couch, hugged the two children who were at a loss as to why they were arguing, and wept silently, looking extremely aggrieved.
"Since you are not in good health, the rules on the mother's side will be waived. I will go and tell my mother that you should take a good rest for a while. It will be hard enough for you to take Min Yi with you. I'm afraid you won't be able to treat Yiyue and Yiyue well." Min Ren’s two enlightenments, let’s send them to his grandmother to be educated first, the eldest brother was taught by his grandmother, the children will definitely learn from the old family, and the old man is afraid of loneliness, so let the two children do their filial piety for us. It's settled."
Lowering her eyes to hide her emotions, Qiao Yingxuan didn't want to argue with Yang Yingmo about these meaningless things, no matter if it was unintentional or intentional, she would grab those powers and interests as she liked, but the child is not a bargaining chip that she can use as she pleases. , this Qiao Yingxuan will not let go.
"Mister! Mr. Mr!"
Yang Yingmo didn't expect Qiao Yingxuan's attitude to be so tough all of a sudden, and she couldn't just say that she couldn't just say no to sending the child there. Facing Qiao Yingxuan's cold and indifferent turn and leave, Yang Yingmo suddenly realized that the relationship between their husband and wife He has been estranged so far, and he doesn't care about his emotions at all... This realization made Yang Yingmo panic. Now that there are grandparents and in-laws at home, it is already a lot of trouble for her to manage the house. If she loses her husband's heart again, she will be in this How to protect the status of the family
"..."
Slowly sitting back on the couch, Yang Yingmo touched the pair of sons and daughters who were still called Daddy, and she began to worry again in her heart, just like what her mother said, a man's feelings are the most unreliable thing, if a woman wants to be in her husband's house To live a good life, the only thing you can rely on is the power of your natal family, and you can hold on to the power and give birth to a son-in-law. In this way, as long as you don't make big mistakes, no one can shake your position as mistress!
Thinking of this, Yang Yingmo's heart settled down again. After today's incident, the mother-in-law thought she would have no face to rely on her uncle's side to control her. The old lady doesn't care about things, so as long as she acts safely, then People can't fault it.
"Come here, pack up the things of the young lady and the young master..."
After ordering the servants to pack the things of the two brothers and sisters first, Yang Yingmo tidied up her clothes, then went to the old lady's yard, thinking that she would take the initiative to talk about sending the children to be raised, so as to ease the relationship between herself and her husband...
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Qiao Yingxuan, who was in a bad mood, left the house alone. He hesitated for a while and ran into the palace to find Lu Zijian. He wanted to go drink with him when he was off duty, but unexpectedly, when the time came, the two of them met as soon as they left the palace. Gong Zhuoxiang's servant is already waiting there...
"My little one has seen Master Lu, Second Master Xuan, that... my master is in the carriage over there."
The young man was ordered to wait for Lu Zijian, now seeing that Qiao Yingxuan was there, knowing that he was also very close to his master, he led them to the carriage together.
"Are you waiting for me? Why didn't someone tell me earlier that I have invited my younger brother to have a drink, why don't we go together?"
Seeing Gong Zhuoxiang lifted the curtain of the carriage and sticking his head out, Lu Zijian unceremoniously jumped into the carriage and sat in, then turned around to call Qiao Yingxuan, but saw the baby standing there with a tangled expression on his face.
"No, it's rare that Brother Xiang is free, so I won't bother you guys, I'll take a step first."
Qiao Yingxuan shook his head with a dejected expression, turned around and left after apologizing to the two of them, and now he was worrying about family matters and relationships, and it would be too cruel to let him see how they look together lovingly .
"Brother Xuan? What's wrong with him?"
Gong Zhuoxiang also wanted to ask Qiao Yingxuan to go with him, but before he could open his mouth, Qiao Yingxuan had already left in a daze of thought. That lonely figure from his back... was really unbearable.
"I'm depressed, it's okay, there are always a few times a year, I go to the riverside to cool off and drink crazy, and tomorrow I will be alive and kicking again."
Lu Zijian waved his hand indifferently, pulled Gong Zhuoxiang back into the car and put down the curtain. In the past two years, Qiao Yingxuan has been suppressing his cheerful nature. The more mature and stable he is in the world, the more pain and grievances in his heart will accumulate. In addition, there is no one around him who can care for him, so that he gradually grows up. It became his habit to go to the riverside alone to drink and punch to vent.
At first Lu Zijian was quite worried about being with him, but with him in Qiao Yingxuan, he just drank and didn't talk about anything. It's better for him to play around with alcohol and vent his anger when he was alone. Slowly, Lu Zijian let go of it After all, those knots in Qiao Yingxuan's heart are beyond the reach of others.
"Oh, by the way, today the right deputy, the censor, asked me about you. Although his daughter is a concubine, she was raised by her grandmother since she was a child, and she is a scholarly family. It is said that the rules should be good. Yours What do you mean?"
When the carriage got on the road, Gong Zhuoxiang mentioned something to Lu Zijian seemingly casually, but the corners of his mouth pressed down to show that he was not in a good mood, it should even be said... murderous.
