Chapter 140 Secret observation

"There are good stories about being a concubine? I don't believe it." Qiao Wan pursed her lips.

Qiao Wei comforted: "Second sister is very smart. Maybe Zhou Yu's first wife died early, so you can"

"Haha, sister, you really dare to think about it." Qiao Wan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

When Mrs. Chen saw Qiao Wan's resistance, she explained in a low voice: "Your eldest sister is right. Zhou Yu comes from a very good family and is talented and beautiful. Now he is highly valued by Sun Ce. When Xiao Wan marries him, he will have no worries about food and clothing, and we sisters can take care of each other."

"

"It still depends on Long Yunqi's opinion. This matter has escalated to Hefei's safety. Your decision may not be effective." Qiao Wan held her chin and looked at the roof, not knowing what was going through her mind.

After hearing this, Qiao Wei glanced at Qiao Wan curiously, and then asked tentatively: "Second sister was talking endlessly just now. Could it be that she already has a sweetheart?"

"Um?"

Mrs. Chen and Qiao Wan looked at Qiao Wan at the same time. Qiao Wan quickly removed her little hand from her chin and shook her head like a rattle. Although she had reached the age of first love, she had seen too few men of the right age. The only one who caught her eye was Long Xiang.

.

Mrs. Chen deliberately pointed out Qiao Wei to Long Xiang, but Qiao Wei did not raise any objection at the time. Being as smart as Qiao Wan, she knew it all and buried her little idea silently, so that the Qiao family did not notice.

It was at the critical moment that Qiao Wan's behavior became slightly out of control.

Qiao Wan shook his head and said nothing. The suspicious Chen was about to ask more questions when she suddenly heard someone talking outside the window.

"Where is Madam?"

"It seems like I'm resting in my room."

"Which room does she live in?"

“The third room on the east side”

Ever since the Qiao family moved into the Junsima Mansion, Long Xiang had not been to the back house once. At this time, the questions he and the maid asked shocked everyone in the room. The purpose of his visit was self-evident.

Upon seeing this, Qiao Niao was about to go out to greet him, but Mrs. Chen quickly stood up and stopped him: "Stay in the room and don't go out. I'll go talk to him about this matter."

After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, she picked up her sleeves and walked out, and soon met Long Xiang on the corridor outside the wing.

"Yun Qi has never been to the back house before. There must be something important for you to come to see me today, right?"

"It is indeed very important. I wonder if Madam is free?"

"Well, let's go and talk slowly under the pavilion in the garden?"

"That's fine."

When the sound of their footsteps disappeared, Qiao Wan poked Qiao Wan's waist and said, "Third brother, follow me and listen."

"Mother won't let us." Qiao Nian looked troubled.

At this time, Qiao Wei also spoke up for Qiao Wan: "Can't you just be more careful?"

Qiao Min shook his head: "I don't dare."

Qiao Wei frowned and said angrily: "Oh, are you still a man? It's inconvenient for us to follow you, otherwise we won't let you pry. My second sister and I are about to get married and go to Jiangdong. How many other things can our third brother do for us?"

Something? Mother will not embarrass you."

"That's right, I hurt you so much before." Qiao Wan also came to make up for it.

"That's okay"

Qiao Miao couldn't refuse, so she could only muster up the courage to go out and tiptoe to the garden.

After an appointment with the incense stick, Qiao Niao ran back like a gust of wind. He picked up the water bowl on the table and poured it down.

Qiao Wei reached for the kettle and asked eagerly for the result.

"What did you hear?"

"Long Yunqi is really smart. He came up with a good idea for my eldest sister. You don't have to worry about marrying to Jiangdong."

Qiao Miao kept stroking his chest with his hands to relieve the surge of energy and blood caused by running fast.

"What's the meaning?"

Qiao Wei was so excited after hearing this that she filled Qiao's water bowl without paying attention until Qiao Wan knocked on the table to remind her.

Qiao Wan picked up the bowl of dripping water and took two more sips. He didn't put it down until he burped.

"Yuan Shu has an unmarried daughter in Hefei. Long Yunqi wants to use her daughter to replace his sister. I think Sun Ce will not refuse."

"Hasn't my third brother been to the Chancellor's Mansion? Do you know how beautiful Yuan Shu's daughter is?"

Qiao Wan asked from a different angle, and Qiao Min responded sincerely: "I didn't see it clearly during the reception that day. It should have some color, but I haven't heard anyone else be surprised, so it's not as good as the two sisters."

Qiao Wan glanced at Qiao Wei, frowned and said: "Then the outcome is unpredictable. If Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are just for entertainment, Yuan Shu's daughter may not be attractive enough."

"Hehe, second sister, don't worry. After the envoy has accepted the gift, what kind words will he have to say when he goes back? Long Yunqi also said that if our Qiao family is not willing, he would rather use force with Sun Ce."

The eloquent second sister was stunned, and a trace of pride flashed across Qiao Miao's face.

There are heroes who are willing to fight for themselves. Which young girl can resist?

Qiao Wei was so elated that she could hardly suppress her excitement. She put her hands on her waist and put her two index fingers together and swirled them.

Suddenly, Qiao Wei saw Qiao Wan taking advantage of the situation, and remembered that her sister had not yet been found, so she asked Qiao Wan, "What else? What did your second sister say?"

Qiao Miao spread his hands and said hesitantly: "I kicked a stone and they discovered it, so I had to run back early."

"Third brother, you too"

Qiao Wei wanted to complain, but she saw Qiao Wei looking around at the window, so she asked curiously: "What are you looking at?"

Qiao Miao replied awkwardly: "I guess my mother will be back soon. I'm thinking about hiding for a while. If I get angry, I'll ask the family for help. It will be troublesome."

Qiao Wei was thoughtful but didn't answer, while Qiao Wan shook his head and said: "We should also know the content of their conversation. The third brother should at least know it earlier. Besides, Long Yunqi is facing us like this, so there is no need to worry about his mother's mood.

not good?"

"That's right." Qiao Min nodded happily.

"Is mother coming back soon? You continue to wait here, I suddenly remembered something." After Qiao Wei said that, she turned and walked out of the house.

Qiao Min asked curiously: "What's going on?"

"Don't worry about it."

Qiao Wei answered very abruptly, leaving Qiao Wan by the window confused. He scratched his head and asked Qiao Wan: "Second sister, what's wrong with eldest sister?"

Qiao Wan frowned and shook her head gently. The moment Qiao Wei turned around, she noticed a blush on Qiao Wei's cheeks, and she wasn't sure what was going on in her mind.

After a while, Mrs. Chen came back with a sad face.

Qiao Min stood there with his head lowered and took the initiative to admit his mistake.

"Mother. I just..."

"That's all, where is your eldest sister?"

Mrs. Chen waved her hand gently, and as expected, Qiao Wan did not want to care about it. Qiao Wan raised her head and replied: "Sister, I have something to go out."

"Where have you gone?"

"The child doesn't know."

"Eldest sister seems to have gone back to her room. If mother wants to talk to her about something, I will go find it for you."

Qiao Wan just saw Chen's sad face and guessed that she didn't belong as well as Qiao Wei, so she felt a little disappointed in her heart. After replying, she was ready to go out.

"Xiao Wan, please stay here first. Mother has something to say."

Chen stopped Qiao Wan and told Qiao Min: "Yun Qi is going to discuss something with the generals. Ni'er, please follow him and listen, and learn how he resolves the crisis."

"oh."

Qiao Wan responded, glanced at Qiao Wan again, and then left Chen's bedroom. He walked through the corridor of the back house and soon saw the outermost screen wall of the back house. Going forward past the moon gate was the vestibule.

At this time, Long Xiang was just walking towards the screen wall, and the bridge attendant wanted to shout loudly to stop Long Xiang from walking with him.

Suddenly, a familiar figure jumped out from behind the screen wall and walked directly in front of Long Xiang.

Sister? I have never been near the Moon Gate before. What are you planning to do today?

With curiosity and suspicion, Qiao Min immediately found a hiding place to observe secretly.
