She treats her own younger brother with utmost respect and care, yet she sends an orphan without a father to our home. Do we have so much money that we can't spend it all?
What you just said means we're currently living under someone else's roof, dependent on our son-in-law's whims.
Qiao Xuan covered his mother's mouth again.
"Enough! Stop talking! What do you know, you woman? Da Qiao is right this time! Liu Yao is a descendant of Liu Fei, a member of the Han clan. Although Liu Yao is dead, these children are still Liu family children. Lord Wu told us to raise them, so you should raise them well."
Be a good mother!
Don't treat Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao the same way you treat them, resorting to scolding and beatings at the slightest provocation.
If you do anything wrong, I'm telling you, you'll harm Da Qiao, do you understand?
Since returning to Qiao Xuan's side, this old man has never spoken to Qiao's mother like that.
Even when she slapped Da Qiao hard and grabbed Xiao Qiao's arm repeatedly, making Qiao Xuan feel so sorry for her, he never said that to her.
"You've gone too far!" Mrs. Qiao jumped up.
"Shut up! If you want to live a good life, and if you want Qiao Er and Qiao San to be safe, then behave yourself! Don't cause trouble for Da Qiao for no reason!"
Old Man Joe turned off the lights, sticking to his bottom line as a father this time.
Mrs. Joe fumed as she groped in the dark, staring at her husband.
She refused to believe it; Da Qiao was born of her, and she raised her!
"Even if Da Qiao is now married to a man like Wu Hou and is favored by him, she is still my daughter. I will beat and scold her!"
These children surnamed Liu, are they some kind of heavenly treasure? The Qiao family is already being very kind by taking them in and feeding them; it's already a favor they're doing because of Lord Wu!
"Shut up, shut up!"
Since moving into Sun Ce's house, Old Man Qiao has come to understand that Sun Ce's family is not only large in scale and population, but also has a complex web of relationships among its members.
They were all as fierce as wolves and tigers; none of them were weak.
Sun Ce's aunt, Lady Sun, was Xu Zhen's wife. She also offered advice and strategies when Sun Ce crossed the river.
Not to mention Sun Ce's uncle, Sun Jing. Although Sun Jing repeatedly refused Sun Ce's offer of an official position, he only wanted to stay in his hometown. He was the one who came up with the idea when Sun Ce attacked Wu Commandery.
Not to mention Sun Ce's uncle's family, Sun Ce's cousin Sun Ben, who abandoned his official post that year and returned with troops to fight alongside Sun Ce in Qu'a, Kuaiji, and Wu Commandery.
These are all great achievements.
What merit or ability does the Qiao family possess?
He simply married off one of his daughters to Sun Ce.
Qiao Er and Qiao San did contribute to the attack on Huang Zu, but which soldier who went out to fight alongside them didn't risk their life?
“You’re just a woman, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you to! In short, shut up and just shut up. Now that Qiao Er and Qiao San are back, we might as well find a house and move out as soon as possible before the New Year.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qiao...
They're unhappy again.
“Why should I move out! This house is so big, it can’t do without our few rooms. My son-in-law hasn’t kicked me out or bothered me, and my mother-in-law is kind to me every day, inviting me to have tea, warm myself by the fire, and have snacks! Why are you in such a hurry to move out? What are you in such a hurry to do! Isn’t this just offending people?”
"Alright, alright, alright! I'm going to sleep. My mind is made up."
Old Man Qiao didn't want to get entangled with his wife.
Mrs. Joe was still muttering to herself.
She didn't care, she didn't care about anything. As long as she could live in this mansion, she would stay here. Her food, clothing, and daily necessities were all taken care of.
Madam Wu, the wife of Marquis Wu, always maintained a respectable demeanor in public and private, sending gifts every few days. When Marquis Wu returned from his campaign, he also gave a gift to Madam Qiao.
If we move out like this, we'll be so far away that we might not even remember each other during holidays.
She's going to stay here.
