Two more days passed.
Qiao Jingjing's mother-in-law wanted to clean up the family because of her second daughter-in-law's troubles, and also wanted to take the opportunity to win over the Xu family.
For the sake of her son's status, the elderly mother may be willing to compromise and unite all forces in the family to remove all obstacles.
Madam Wu was talking to her sister-in-law, Madam Sun, who was Xu Jiao's grandmother, about Xu Jiao's remarriage.
Madam Sun was such a wise woman.
Lady Sun also knew that with the death of her eldest nephew Sun Ce, leaving behind an orphan and a widow, as well as an elderly mother, the entire burden of the family fell on the young Sun Lao Er's shoulders.
Sun Lao Er wanted to win over the masses.
We still have to rely on relatives.
It must be a marriage alliance.
Madam Sun went along with it, saying, "Our Jiaojiao has such a hard life. If she were to come to your family, sister-in-law, and have the same treatment you have for Da Qiao, I would be content."
Thus, within three days, Sun Quan brought Xu Jiao to the Sun family.
Qiao Jingjing had never met Xu Jiao before.
However, historical evaluations of Sun Ce's harem are not very positive.
It's very chaotic.
Whether it's Xie, who went from being a wife to a concubine, or Xu Jiao, a widow who remarried and became the wife of Sun Quan, the General Who Conquered the Barbarians.
The one with the best reputation for virtue is Yuan Shiyi, and Qiao Jingjing gets along well with her.
Xiao Qiao has been staying with Qiao Jingjing for more than half a month.
Qiao Jingjing always says that her sister can go home now and doesn't need to stay with her every night.
She's fine.
Xiao Qiao didn't want to leave.
This was the most difficult time for her older sister. Even if she couldn't help in any way, it was always good to be there for her.
"You stay by my side all day long. Are you afraid I'll do something rash? Or do you think I'm too fragile? Manman, do you know? Life is a long journey. People have to keep living and always look ahead."
You and Gongjin, a young couple, don't separate like this because of me.
Qiao Jingjing's implication was that Qiao Manman couldn't let Lu Qiuqiu or someone else in the family take advantage of the situation just because she was protecting her.
Qiao Manman was more than just worried about her older sister being too heartbroken.
Her biggest worry was that someone in this secluded mansion might take advantage of the chaos and do something malicious.
"Let me be frank with you. After all, you taught me all these principles! Sister, you told me not to be naive and not to think of things simply."
You are now!
You've thought it through. Even if your brother-in-law dies, you can still raise Ashao and Daxiong and Xiaoxiong on your own and make a living.
"Yes! Sister, if it weren't for others, if it weren't for those conflicts, if we weren't in these six counties of Jiangdong, if we weren't seen as a thorn in Cao Cao's side, if you were just an ordinary person instead of possessing such great wealth, with mountains of gold and silver that you could never spend, perhaps you could still live a peaceful life."
Qiao Manman told Qiao Jingjing not to be careless after what happened with Xie Shi and Xu Jiao.
Her older sister was not just a widow; she was a young and beautiful widow who had lost her husband and possessed enormous wealth. Who wouldn't be envious?
Don't even mention those despicable men in the world.
It is within this secluded mansion that countless people have sought to rob.
Aren't all these people following the lead of Lady Wu and Sun Quan, and acting accordingly?
“Manman, I understand your reasoning, and it does make sense. As the saying goes, people are afraid of becoming famous, just as pigs are afraid of getting fat. I am now a big fat pig.”
A big, fat pig that can eat a tiger.
