Chapter 126 This young master is probably of high status
Although Shao Liulang was not a scholar, he was Shao Yunduan's cousin, and Shao Yunduan was the county magistrate's son-in-law.
So, Shao Liulang sat down, pretending he knew nothing, and no one called him to get up.
Qiao Xuan soon discovered that there were two unfamiliar young men sitting on the left side of Lord Qiao.
Both of them were in their early twenties. One of them looked bookish, with a noble temperament. He held a folding fan, wore white clothes, and looked very elegant.
The other man was slightly younger than him, with handsome features, a pair of peach blossom eyes that slanted into his temples, narrow eyes that looked around with brilliance, and a smile on his handsome face, giving people a lazy and arrogant feeling. The royal blue robe with gold edges was very gorgeous, making him even more eye-catching.
The two men's attitude towards Mr. Qiao was also quite interesting, too polite and courteous, neither close nor respectful. On the contrary, Mr. Qiao paid close attention to the elegant man in white from time to time, and was very attentive and considerate.
Qiao Xuan immediately guessed a lot of things in her mind.
Her father was not a man who liked to "share happiness with the people". He was obsessed with getting promoted and making money, and was very utilitarian.
In previous years, he would not come to watch any dragon boat races. It was probably because these two were interested that he came, and he even brought Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Wei along.
This young man's status is probably not low.
Qiao Kou has always been Qiao Wei's supporting actor. Wherever Qiao Wei is, there will basically be Qiao Kou serving her attentively and flatteringly.
However, Qiao Kou was nowhere to be seen today.
This is of course not because Qiao Wei doesn't need this supporting actor, but, it's because Qiao Wei doesn't want Qiao Kou to come into contact with these two gentlemen, right?
If Qiao Kou tried to curry favor with her, that would be something Qiao Wei didn't want to see at all.
Qiao Xuan couldn't help but curl her lips, this is really interesting.
What Qiao Xuan expected was absolutely correct.
At this moment, in a small building in the backyard of the county government office, Qiao Kou's eyes were almost red and swollen from crying. Aunt Du was so anxious that she kept persuading her: "Miss San, please stop crying! Please stop crying! If your eyes get swollen from crying, what will happen if Madam and the eldest daughter see them later?"
"So what!" Qiao Kou said angrily, "Qiao Wei is a narrow-minded, selfish and domineering bitch. She has a good marriage, so she can't stand me doing well. She didn't allow me to see Master Xie today, so will she allow me to see Master Zhang and Master Zhao in the future? Mother, what should I do? Wuwuwu."
The elegant young man in white was named Xie Jingrong. He was the eldest grandson of the Xie family, a prominent family in the provincial capital.
He was knowledgeable, talented, elegant and noble. Although he had no interest in taking the imperial examinations, his position in the literary world should not be underestimated.
Moreover, his biological grandfather was the former Minister of Personnel who retired and returned home, his father is now the Left Vice Minister of Rites, and his mother is the Princess Qingping, the only child of Prince Jian and his wife.
There are more than a dozen descendants of the Xie family who are serving as officials in Beijing or in local areas, and there are countless more who have not yet entered officialdom but are already juren or xiucai!
Such a prominent family is far inferior to the Qiao family even in the local area.
This time, Xie Jingrong and Le Zhengxiao, the third son of Le Zheng family, one of the largest merchant families in the provincial capital, came to Heshan County to enjoy the scenery. Unexpectedly, County Magistrate Qiao found out about it by accident and naturally invited them to a hospitality.
You know, the Xie family has many connections. Although the family is not in the capital, they have a lot of connections in the capital. County Magistrate Qiao is now determined to return to the capital to find a job. If he can get the Xie family to help, he will have a better chance! -
