The Return of the Noble Abandoned Consort

Chapter 199: Thoroughly investigate the little stepmother (second watch)

Views:

In November, the weather was getting colder and colder. The two little guys were lying in bed and refused to get up. Qiao Wei went to call, and the two of them wrapped the quilt tightly and rolled inside the bed. Grabbed it from the quilt, then went to the shelf, took the clothes of the two: "Myself..."

Before finishing the words, when he turned his head, he found that there were no shadows of the two little guys in the room!

Qiao Wei squinted her eyes, and strode back to the upper room.

Ji Mingxiu sat on the head of the bed, with the quilt covered up to his waist, flipping through a book leisurely.

"Where's Jingyun Wangshu?" Qiao Wei asked.

Ji Mingxiu said calmly, "I didn't see it."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to the two bulging bags under the quilt.

The two little buns didn't know that they had been betrayed by their father, so they thought they were well hidden, so they twisted their buttocks in the quilt.

Qiao Wei was so angry and funny, she just hid like this, how could she still be embarrassing? What about IQ

It's really big and has a lot of ideas, and I have learned to stay in bed in different ways.

It's not surprising that Wang Shu stays in bed, this girl has 365 days a year, and it's a miracle that she can get up five days early, but Jing Yun is an early bird, and now she has become a little slob too

After breakfast, Qiao Wei stopped Ji Mingxiu: "I need to discuss something with you."

Ji Mingxiu took her hand and squeezed it lightly: "What's the matter?"

Qiao Wei was pinched a little itchy, she pulled her hand back, but he grabbed it back again: "Jing Yun and Wang Shu can't play like this anymore, they need to go to school. They went to the private school of old scholars in the village. I don't know if Ji's family has a private school, or... ancestry?"

"There is a master in the house." Ji Mingxiu said.

Qiao Wei was slightly confused: "I've been here for a month, why haven't I seen you once?"

Ji Mingxiu said: "There is usually only Brother Liu as a student in the mansion. Brother Liu has been sick recently, so they didn't come over."

"You want Jingyun Wangshu and Brother Niu to go to class together?" She didn't hate Brother Niu, but that child was so weak, she was afraid that Wangshu would slap him and smash him into pieces. If you don’t go to class with Brother Niu, it’s not good to ask for a teacher alone. "Is there a private school? I think it would be better for children to have more contact with group life."

Ji Mingxiu wrapped her arms around her slender waist: "There are academies, but Jing Yun and Wang Shu are too young, and the academies are all older than them."

Qiao Wei leaned on his strong arms and stroked his chest ambiguously: "It doesn't matter, they were the youngest in the old scholar's private school, and the other children are several years older than them."

Looking at her increasingly unruly hands, Ji Mingxiu narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Sect Master Qiao, where is the ignition?"

Qiao Wei was confident, she put both hands on his strong waist, pinched left and right: "I'm inconvenient, I'm sorry, Young Master Ming."

"Then this method is not convenient?" Ji Mingxiu's playful eyes fell on her slender plain hands.

Qiao Wei was startled for a moment, then blushed, and withdrew her hand: "Rogue!"

Ji Mingxiu went to the palace, while Qiao Wei went to Luomei Courtyard to greet the old lady.

Before they arrived, they heard Mrs. Ji's almost laughing voice, followed by Wang Shu's voice: "I'm not wrong, what are you laughing at, great-grandmother?"

Madam Ji laughed again.

Qiao Wei entered the room: "Why is grandma laughing, so happy?"

Mrs. Ji suppressed her smile with great difficulty: "The little girl is reciting poems."

Reciting it so well was called a bull's head and a horse's mouth, and it made the old lady die.

Mrs. Li, Ji Shuang, and Xun Lan were all there.

It is said that Xun Lan knelt in the yard for most of the night last night, her knees were swollen and her face was a little haggard, but even so, she was still amazingly beautiful.

What a little stepmother with 360 degrees and no dead ends!

"Grandmother, Madam, Second Aunt, Auntie." Qiao Wei collected her face, and bowed to the people seated.

Mrs. Ji asked the maid to take the three children out, took her hand, and let her sit beside her. It is said that this seat is a bit particular. Except for Ji Mingxiu, even Ji Wan has never sat there a few times. , Qiao Wei came to Luomei Courtyard to invite her so many times, and it was the first time she sat beside the old lady. It can be seen that the "gentleness and generosity" last night was not without gain.

Mrs. Ji patted Qiao Wei's hand: "I was talking about you just now. You have been married into Ji's family for a month, and it's time to go out and walk around. Do you want to go back to your mother's house?"

Qiao Wei said without much hesitation: "I want to."

Mrs. Ji nodded her head and smiled: "You're really welcome, let's go!"

Qiao Wei smiled slightly: "Thank you, grandma!"

Coming out of Luomei Courtyard, Qiao Wei took Bi'er into the carriage of Ji Mansion.

Bi'er was so excited that she couldn't get out of the door, "Miss, are we going to see the master at the Ganoderma lucidum hall?"

Qiao Wei stroked the Magnolia on her head: "Of course not."

"That's to see... the fourth lady of the Ember Mansion?"

"No."

Bi'er's eyes lit up: "I see, Aunt Luo!"

Qiao Wei opened the curtain and said to the coachman, "The brick and tile factory in the west of the city."

"Yes, madam." The coachman replied.

Bier asked puzzledly: "Where is the brick and tile factory? Where are we going? Madam, do you want to buy bricks?"

Qiao Wei almost forgot that Bi'er hadn't been there, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and said slowly: "You will know when you go."

Bi'er: Why are you learning how to speak like my uncle? !

The Southern Chu envoys visited and closed several streets. They took a detour and walked half an hour longer than usual, but they arrived at the brick and tile factory before noon.

Qiao Wei went straight to the flower hall. The shopkeeper Qiu was calculating the accounts of last month, when she suddenly saw a figure, she thought it was some guest who came to the door, and said, "Sit down for a while."

Qiao Wei sat down on the chair generously: "Business manager Qiu is busy?"

When shopkeeper Qiu heard this, his pupils shrank, and he raised his head. He was shocked: "Mrs. Qiao? No, it's time to call Mrs. Ji now. Mrs. Ji came from a long way, but something happened?"

"If you have nothing to do, go to the Three Treasures Hall." Qiao Wei clapped her hands, picked up the tea served by the maid, took a sip, and said straight to the point: "I'm looking for Master Liu."

"Yo, which little beauty misses Master Liu?"

Sixth Master came out of the account room, smiled and cupped his hands at Qiao Wei, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Ma'am, don't come here!"

Qiao Wei sighed, "I'm afraid I'm sick."

The sixth master gave shopkeeper Qiu a wink, shopkeeper Qiu understood, stood up, and retreated with Bi'er and a few maidservants.

There were no outsiders in the room, so Qiao Wei didn't waste time going around with Master Liu, and said bluntly: "To be honest, I came here this time to ask Master Liu to do me a favor."

Sixth Master squeezed the folding fan in his hand: "What's the matter?"

Qiao Wei said: "I want to ask Sixth Master to help me check someone."

"Who?" Sixth Master asked.

"Xun Lan."

"Xun Lan?" Sixth Master tapped his forehead lightly with a folding fan, making sure he had never heard of this name before, "Who?"

Qiao Wei said truthfully: "My father-in-law's continuation."

The sixth master was taken aback: "The prime minister's stepmother?"

Qiao Wei nodded: "That's right, it's her."

The sixth master couldn't understand: "Isn't she your mother-in-law? Why do you check your mother-in-law?"

Qiao Wei didn't speak.

Sixth Master squinted his eyes: "Did your mother-in-law give you some shoes?"

"I think she did, but I don't have any evidence, so I came to you." Qiao Wei said, taking out a piece of paper from her wide sleeve, "I wrote everything about her on it. She was six years old. Ji's family left at the age of thirteen, you probably can't find out about her affairs in Ji's family, but after she left Ji's family, I want to know all about her experiences, in every detail."

Liu Ye opened the white paper, and Liu Ye, who was unprepared, was so shocked by the big ugly words on the white paper that his heart trembled. Oh my god, is this really the word of a young lady? It's too ugly!

Qiao Wei cleared her throat: "Look at the content."

The corner of Liu Ye's mouth twitched, and he finished reading the typos on the paper very sadly, pinched his eyes that were about to go blind, and said with emotion: "I thought it would be your words that blinded my eyes, but I didn't expect it to be what was written on it. Which storyteller told you? Sixth Lord, I can make it up better than him."

Look, this is the reaction of a normal person after hearing the little stepmother's experience. If it is said that the Ji family is familiar with the little stepmother's character and believes in the little stepmother's past, but she is a new daughter-in-law. Hearing about the little stepmother, she was so trusting and calm, the old lady was not surprised at all.

Qiao Wei laughed at herself and said, "This is not made up, it's true."

"Really?" Sixth Master hehe, "Then Ji's family may feel sorry for her."

Qiao Wei smiled and didn't answer, but said: "I've heard that the Sword League is well-informed, so I guess it won't take much time to check someone."

Sixth Master smiled indistinctly: "Give me your maid for one month."

Qiao Wei put the money bag on the table: "Master Liu, take the money, ten days."

Looking at each other, Qiao Wei's eyes didn't budge, Liu Ye smacked his lips, took the purse, opened it, and said: "You are too stingy, such a small amount of money is not enough for me to treat my brothers to drink, wow —”

Golden ticket!

A thick stack!

The sixth master swallowed his saliva: "Sect Master Qiao, have you made a lot of money from the preserved egg business?"

There are not so many preserved eggs. This is the red envelope given by the elders when they serve tea to the elders on the second day of the wedding.

Qiao Wei looked at Master Liu and said, "This is the deposit, and I will pay you the other half after the matter is completed."

Sixth Master closed the purse: "Deal."
