Chapter 799 Do You Think I Want To?
"Didn't I tell you not to provoke Qiao Xuan again? She is no longer a member of the Qiao family. She can't hinder you in any way. Besides, she is the wife of the top scholar now. It will do you no good to provoke her!"
Aunt Du said with deep emotion: "After all, who knows which cloud in the sky will rain? For example, in the past, who would have thought that Qiao Xuan would end up like this? So don't offend her again. If Shao Yunduan really becomes an official in the future, you are her sister after all, and maybe one day you will need her help."
Qiao Kou sneered and glanced at Aunt Du with some disdain.
What else is the use of this woman besides saying these useless things and thinking about relying on this and that all day long?
"Do you think I want to?"
"Um?"
"Oh, Madam ordered, Qiao Wei ordered, what else can I do except follow it?"
“.”
Aunt Du was speechless!
Yes, the madam gave the order, Qiao Wei gave the order, and Qiao Kou had no choice but to do it obediently. How could she refuse?
Mrs. Qiao was shrewd and mean, and Qiao Wei was unruly and overbearing, but one thing was for sure: neither of them was easy to fool. It was difficult to pretend to obey them but actually disobey them.
Aunt Du was filled with grief and indignation, and gritted her teeth and said, "This day is really, really. I will think of a way, Aunt Du will think of a way. When I return to the capital next year, I will find you a good marriage as soon as possible."
Qiao Kou glanced at her and said nothing.
She didn't believe what Aunt Du said at all and didn't have any expectations.
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
She had been disappointed once and didn't want to be disappointed again.
She will make her own decision on her marriage, and there is no need for Aunt Du to interfere.
Aunt Du kept on mumbling something, but Qiao Kou didn't listen carefully. She just felt like there was a mosquito buzzing beside her ear. After a while, she said she was tired and wanted to rest, so she lay down on the bed and closed her eyes.
Aunt Du sighed and closed her mouth.
The next day, Mrs. Qiao brought Qiao Wei to apologize.
I didn’t bring Aunt Du and Qiao Kou with me.
Qiao Wei was destined to be humble in front of Qiao Xuan today, and Mrs. Qiao would naturally not let Aunt Du and Qiao Kou see it.
Today, Shao Yunduan was also at home. Madam Qiao deliberately brought up the old story again, implying that the Qiao family was powerful in the capital, and the previous generation was a baron's mansion. Now their connections are not bad. Qiao Wei's marriage is to a marquis' mansion. Shao Yunduan will have trouble coming to the capital in the future without any connections. It is not an exaggeration to say that it will be difficult for him to move forward. It is better for everyone to take a step back so that they can meet and interact with each other in the future.
After hearing this, Shao Yunduan coldly refused: "I only rely on my ability, so Madam Qiao doesn't need to worry about me. My wife can't suffer in vain!"
Mrs. Qiao sneered in her heart, wanting to mock Shao Yunduan for being naive! He had no connections in the capital, and he wanted to make a name for himself as a poor scholar. Ha, he was lucky. Let's wait and see in twenty years!
If you are unlucky, the best outcome in this life is to be a minor official in the Hanlin Academy.
But she obviously couldn't say it at this moment, otherwise the situation would get out of control.
Qiao Wei looked reluctant and aggrieved. No one would look like this when they came to apologize. This made Fang's temper flare up. She insulted her a few more times, and she was so angry that she almost exploded again.
Mrs. Qiao was angry, anxious and overwhelmed. She finally managed to scold her and force her to apologize.
The behavior of the mother and daughter is a farce.
In the end, Mrs. Qiao agreed to pay 10,000 silver taels as compensation, and wrote an IOU for the remaining 40,000 taels to be repaid later.
