Chapter 507 Someone from Jiangnan’s Qiao family is coming
"Hahaha...hahaha..." Min Pan'er suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, "You want to drive me away for the sake of the Jiang family?"
"You actually abandoned me for the Jiang family!"
"Hahaha... If it weren't for me, the Jiang family would still be living a precarious and difficult life in Huizhou!"
"Now that I've entered the capital, you want to kick me to the curb?"
Jiang Hongling closed her eyes and said in a strained voice, "Say what you want."
After saying that, he loudly ordered Madam Qian, "Mother, please send a few people to help Min Pan'er pack her things. Within half an hour, you must drive her out of the Jiang residence."
Min Pan'er changed her name to Jiang Pan'er after being publicly recognized by Jiang Huai, the patriarch of the Jiang family, at the gate of the mansion that day.
But at this moment, Jiang Hongling called her by her original name, which shows how determined she was to expel Min Pan'er.
At the same time, she was also using this method to tell everyone that Min Pan'er was not a member of the Jiang family, and that the mistakes she made had nothing to do with the Jiang family.
Jiang Hongling was protecting the Jiang family, but at the same time, she was also stabbing Min Pan'er in the heart.
At this moment, Min Pan'er stopped crying and suppressed all her emotions, her eyes becoming cruel and unfamiliar.
Upon hearing Jiang Hongling's words, Madam Qian was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses. It was only when Jiang Yingluo beside her tugged at her that she snapped out of it and hurriedly agreed to go and make arrangements.
"Gentlemen, you have seen the farce at the Jiang residence. Please leave as soon as possible."
Jiang Hongling looked at the crowd watching the show at the door with neither arrogance nor servility.
The group was still somewhat reluctant to leave, but the hosts were already trying to get rid of them, so they couldn't insist on staying any longer.
So they all said their goodbyes and left.
“Grandmother, Sixth Princess, shall we leave too?” Su Rongrong spoke first.
At this moment, she truly admired this eldest daughter of the Jiang family.
Decisive, resolute, mindful of the big picture, in control of the entire situation, and possessing extraordinary demeanor.
If the environment and family background were different, she would definitely be a good candidate to be the head of the household.
It's a real shame. After today's events, the reputation of the three Jiang sisters, along with the entire Jiang family, is ruined.
In the future, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to find a good family to marry into.
Qiao Qinghe nodded slightly. "Let's go."
Jiang Hongling has already gone this far, so she shouldn't push her too hard.
Anyway, now that Min Pan'er has left the Jiang family, she'll have plenty of opportunities to deal with her.
"Sixth Princess, let's go."
"Okay." Li Jingyue took Qiao Qinghe's arm with practiced ease.
The group began to walk out. When they passed Jiang Hongling, Li Jingyue praised her with great interest, saying, "You're not bad. I'll come to visit you again in the future."
Once outside, Qiao Qinghe glanced at Li Jingyue in surprise. "Is the Sixth Princess going to elevate Miss Jiang?"
From now on, it will be very difficult for Miss Jiang to receive invitations from Miss Beppu again.
However, if Li Jingyue were to promote Jiang Hongling, the situation would be entirely different.
Li Jingyue smiled and said, "I thought she was a nice person, so I just did it on a whim."
As she spoke, she winked mysteriously at Qiao Qinghe and whispered, "Seventh Sister is very popular with the old ladies, so I'll just be the Sixth Princess that the noble ladies like from now on."
Okay, let's start by promoting Jiang Hongling.
After a moment's thought, Qiao Qinghe couldn't help but laugh.
This sixth princess is indeed quite different from the rumors.
The group walked out of the Jiang residence, chatting and laughing.
Whether it was a coincidence or something the Jiang family did on purpose, when they reached the main gate, they saw two maids throwing Min Pan'er's bundle outside the side gate, followed by an old woman grabbing Min Pan'er's arm and dragging her outside.
The moment the old woman let go, Min Pan'er fell to the ground in a sorry state.
Perhaps because the fall was too hard, Min Pan'er lay on the ground, her body hunched over, her hands tightly clutching her injured leg, her expression contorted in pain.
The servants of the Jiang family didn't even glance at Min Pan'er. They picked up her cane that had fallen by the door, threw it at her, and then slammed the door shut.
"Tsk tsk, this is truly karma in this life." Li Jingyue couldn't help but sigh, then climbed onto the carriage returning to the palace.
Qiao Qinghe and Su Rongrong only glanced at the disheveled Min Pan'er before silently climbing into their respective carriages.
Three people, three carriages, three directions, each returning home.
By the time Qiao Qinghe returned to Nancheng, the events that had occurred at the Jiang residence had already spread throughout the capital.
When Madam He and the others saw Qiao Qinghe return at the gate of the mansion, they hurriedly came to greet her.
"Grandma, you're finally back."
"What happened?" Qiao Qinghe asked as she walked inside.
Madam He quickly replied, "Just now, someone from my aunt's side came to deliver a message, saying that people have come from our hometown in Jiangnan."
Qiao Qinghe stopped and looked at Madam He with a surprised expression: "Someone from the Qiao family of Jiangnan has come to the capital?"
Wasn't it said that the Qiao family couldn't easily leave Jiangnan?
Why would they suddenly come to Beijing?
"Yes," Madam He affirmed. "The messenger clearly stated that someone came from our hometown in Jiangnan."
"Originally, your aunt sent someone to invite you over."
"Seeing that you were not in the manor, we invited the First Madam over."
"What?" Qiao Qinghe was startled. "You mean, Wei Jia went with her?"
"Yes, Madam has been feeling unwell these days," Madam He said with concern. "I tried to stop her, but I couldn't."
After a moment's thought, Qiao Qinghe understood why Wei Jia insisted on going there.
Logically speaking, if someone from their hometown is going to Beijing, they should write to inform them in advance so that the family can make preparations.
But he didn't say anything and suddenly went to Beijing. It's hard not to suspect that something happened back home.
Secondly, if the person coming from your hometown is not important, or if it is a younger generation, you should make sure they are settled in first before taking the initiative to visit them.
However, Madam Zhou hurriedly sent someone to the Qiao residence to invite her over. Clearly, the person from her hometown was no ordinary person.
Qiao Qinghe counted on her fingers the number of people who would warrant her second sister-in-law sending someone to invite her over: her parents, her eldest brother and sister-in-law, and a few others. She just didn't know who it was that had come.
She could think of things, so Wei Jia naturally wouldn't overlook them.
Whether it was to find out the truth or out of filial piety, it's not hard to understand why Wei Jia insisted on going there.
"Did the messenger say who is going to the capital?"
“No. They only said that someone came from their hometown in Jiangnan.” Madam He hesitated and said, “Judging from the servant’s appearance, it seemed as if he had been specifically instructed not to say anything.”
Qiao Qinghe couldn't help but frown.
No wonder Wei Jia insisted on going even though she wasn't feeling well.
They seem to have ill intentions.
"How long have they been gone?"
He checked the time and said, "It's been about an hour."
"They've been gone for so long and haven't come back, nor have they sent anyone to send a message?" Qiao Qinghe felt a little uneasy.
Since they all lived in the southern part of the city, it was only a quarter of an hour's journey from the Qiao residence to the Zhou family's place. Half an hour was enough for the round trip.
"Get the car ready, I'm going to take a look."
Qiao Qinghe gave the orders loudly as she turned and walked out.
"Grandma, you've just come back from outside, would you like to rest for a bit?" Madam He hesitated for a moment. "And would you like to change your clothes?"
This outfit is too formal.
When going out to a banquet, one's attire is a symbol of status and face.
But it's really tiring.
Mrs. He wanted Qiao Qinghe to change into some lighter clothes before going out.
But Qiao Qinghe didn't care about any of that. She waved her hand and took A Shuang out the door again.
After thinking about it, he also brought He Shi and Asi along.
