C94 (1/2)
The little fox was stunned for a moment as it was gnawing on a chicken leg. Qiao Liangjin was pointing at the stool that she was squatting on. What did she mean by letting the other party sit on the stool that she was squatting on?
The little fox fiercely threatened Qiao Ya with the chicken leg in its mouth.
Qiao Ya was about to sit down after being helped up by Shui Ruo, but when she saw Silver Fox fiercely shouting at her, she frowned and shook her head. ”Many thanks, sister. I still need to go back to my book to stop bothering you.”
Qiao Liangjin originally wanted Qiao Ya to sit on the oily chair, but that Silver Fox didn't have any discernment. It had no intention of giving up its seat, and could only give up.
After Qiao Ya was helped out of the pavilion by Ruoshui, she stopped and turned her body to look at the door of the pavilion. She spat viciously and twisted her body to leave.
Qiao Siyuan sat beside Qiao Liangjin with a puzzled expression. The delicacies on the table no longer attracted him.
Qiao Liangjin took off the shell of the prawn in her hand and placed it on Jose Yuan's plate. ”What happened?” he asked with a smile. ”She ate too fast. Is she full?”
”Big Sis, tell me, why do you think our house is so strange?”
”Why is it strange?”
”Everyone seems kind, but everyone doesn't seem kind.” Jose replied, tapping his chopsticks on the side of the bowl.
Qiao Liangjin held down Qiao Siyuan's chopsticks and smiled. ”Don't knock. Father and Mother will quarrel this way. ”You're still young, right now your job is to study well, write well, read well, learn more useful things. Don't even think about the schemes and scheming within our house. Men are determined to stay in the four directions.”
A light shone in Josephine's eyes. She stood up and patted herself on the chest. ”Am I considered a man even at my age?”
Qiao Liangjin was overjoyed as she nodded her head.
As the sky gradually grew dark, Qiao Liangjin sent Joshua back to her, and sent her away to Tranquil Heart Garden with the lantern in her hand.
Just as he arrived at the entrance of the Calm Heart Garden, the servant girl, Ah Qing, who was standing beside Qiao Xinting, opened the door and joyfully said: ”Just now, the Madam said that the Miss would come, but this servant doesn't believe it.”
Qiao Liangjin nodded and entered the Tranquil Heart Garden in a flash.
There were already lanterns burning in the Tranquil Heart Garden, and a kitchen appeared nearby as well. As expected, the moment the prime minister made his move, it was obvious if there wasn't.
A Qing opened the door to Guo Caiting's room, smiling brightly as she said, ”Madam is indeed blessed with a brilliant plan, the young miss is here.”
Guo Caijing was sitting under the candlelight, holding her chin with one hand. Seeing Qiao Liangjin come in, she told An Qing to bring Qiao Xinting back to rest.
Qiao Liangyin closed the door and walked over to Guo Caiting's side. He sat down and said with a smile, ”Third Aunt, why are you so sure that I'll come?”
”When chastity returns, she definitely won't let me continue with the housekeeper. The eldest young miss naturally wouldn't let her continue with the housekeeper, so I guessed that the eldest young miss would definitely come.”
Qiao Liangjin's fingers gently looked at the table. Just like Guo Caiting, she used one hand to support her chin as she asked, ”Third Madame, do you have any plans?”
Guo Caiting forced a smile, shook her head and said, ”This kind of scheming, I really can't come up with anything.”
Qiao Liangjin gazed deeply at Guo Caijing. She had rushed back from the mountains just to be willing to be her sabre and help her in the Prime Minister's Estate. This sabre didn't need to know much; it only needed to do what she wanted her to do.
”I'm afraid that the madame won't be able to go out this winter. Chong Yuanyuan thought that it would be useless to try and find a trick, Third Aunt, as long as Father doesn't give in, you can continue to be the housekeeper. For Zhen Yuxin's house, you can just give her as much as any other yard, no need for special treatment.”
”Yes, Miss.”
”Qiao Xinting will go to the study tomorrow to study with Siyuan.” Qiao Liangjin suddenly raised an opinion.
This sentence greatly shocked Guo Caiting, and she quickly waved her hand, ”No, you can't do that. Xin Ting is a Shu Family's daughter, she only needs to know a few simple words. She doesn't need to read too much.”
Qiao Liangjin stood up and said without a doubt, ”It's decided. Tomorrow, we'll go study with Siyuan. Third Madame, hurry up and take care of your body. You must support this Prime Minister.”
Guo Caiting was silent. She propped herself up from the table and firmly nodded her head.
Only then did Qiao Liangjin turn around and leave the Tranquil Heart Garden in satisfaction.
Walking in the frigid night, Zi Yan asked in confusion, ”Miss, why …”
”I don't trust her.” Qiao Liangjin only said a few words before she hurriedly walked towards the Golden Flower Pavilion.
As she entered the room, a red figure was waiting for her.
Just as Zi Yan followed Qiao Liangjin into the house, she looked at that figure carefully. She pursed her lips into a smile as she turned around and left, closing the door tightly behind her.
Qiao Liangjin's breathing became sluggish as she asked, ”Why is it you?”
That red figure lazily leaned on the beauty seat, holding a book in her hands. It seemed as though she had been waiting for a long time.
”Why can't it be me? The news of what happened outside the city gates today has spread throughout the entire capital. ” The voice of the silhouette was pleasant to the ears, giving Qiao Liangjin, who was originally covered in a layer of chilliness, a feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze.
”Is that going to be a good thing or a bad thing?” Qiao Liangjin asked with a smile.
