Chapter 169 The key is who you are useful to.



Sun Quan closed his eyes in annoyance.

Even at this critical juncture, Xu Jiao remained as proud as ever.

I'm still waiting to see what happens to Da Qiao.

These days, it's already a miracle that Da Qiao doesn't make fun of Xu Jiao.

After announcing Xu Jiao's execution in front of her, Sun Quan left without looking back.

Xu Jiao stayed there and cried.

The maid packed her things.

Sun Quan also ordered Zhang Zhao to immediately send dozens of men to guard outside Liuyun Palace. After Xu Jiao had tidied up a bit, he urged her to return to Wu.

The turn of events in Sun Quan's backyard came too suddenly.

Sun Quan's mother, Lady Wu, was the last to know.

Lady Wu wanted to ask Sun Quan what exactly had happened.

However, Sun Quan had been busy with important matters since noon that day and had not given his mother an explanation at all.

Madam Wu could only call her eldest and third daughters-in-law to her side to ask them questions.

This is, after all, asking the wrong person.

How did the eldest son's wife and the third son's wife know about what happened in the second son's back quarters?

If these two daughters-in-law knew, wouldn't that explain the problem?

Qiao Jingjing replied to her mother-in-law, "I don't know anything about what happened in my second brother's house."

Ms. Xu further stated that she did not understand.

Madam Wu was still muttering to herself, "What exactly happened? Why did she suddenly get so angry? She sent him home! Sigh, she needs to give her aunt an explanation!"

Madam Wu thought that now that Xu Jiao had been sent away, if it was just a disagreement between her second son and daughter-in-law, they could bring her back after a few days when they had calmed down. She could also explain this to her eldest sister-in-law, Madam Sun, who was Xu Jiao's grandmother.

The difficulty lies in the fact that she doesn't know why.

Qiao Jingjing understood perfectly well.

But on the surface, they had to pretend to be confused.

Madam Wu suddenly remembered Ah Shao's illness.

The old lady held her eldest daughter-in-law's hand and asked, "Is Ashao feeling any better? Sigh, I was so worried about my second son's family affairs that I kept calling you here! I was just grasping at straws. How could you two know about my second son's family affairs? He would never discuss these things with you! Sigh, Da Qiao, you should go back to Fu Bi Hai and take good care of Ashao. Don't worry about me these days, and don't come to pay your respects morning and night! Once Ashao has recovered, bring the child to me and make me happy."

Xu Jiao was sent back, and the matter was dropped by Madam Wu.

Lady Wu never received an explanation from her second son, Sun Quan.

Sun Quan had considered his decision and the complex conflicts within his large family, as well as the subtle details, but he didn't need to explain them so clearly to his mother.

Especially Xu Jiao's comments about A Shao and Sun Deng.

If my elderly mother, Madam Wu, were to hear these words, wouldn't it be even more of a waste?

And it caused my mother worry.

For Sun Quan's mother, both A Shao and A Deng were grandsons, with A Shao being the most important grandson and A Deng being Sun Quan's eldest son.

Both are important.

So Sun Quan used the excuse that he was too busy with government affairs to make a decision about Xu Jiao on his own.

Everything was exactly what Qiao Jingjing wanted.

She returned home.

Ah Shao is feeling better, but because of the high fever and gastrointestinal damage, he can't recover for a while and has been staying in the house to rest these past few days.

Ashao knew that his mother had been summoned to Linhua Mansion by his grandmother, the Dowager Madam, that morning and was only now returning.

The news of Xu Jiao being driven back to Wu County by Sun Quan spread throughout the entire Beigu Mountain.

Ah Shao couldn't help but ask his mother:

"Mother, did Second Uncle really divorce Second Aunt?"

Although Ashao is still a child, he is relatively intelligent and somewhat sensitive.

Because his father, Sun Ce, died young.

Although born into a large family, his second uncle, Sun Quan, was the most upright man in the family and also doted on A Shao and his two younger sisters.

In Shao's mind, his second uncle, Sun Quan, was a very high-ranking figure and someone he could rely on.

That's why Qiao Jingjing said to her son, Ashao:

"You don't understand now, but you will one day. No matter how great a person's ability is, it's never too much, but a person's temper should not be greater than their ability."

Ah Shao, remember this! In this world, whether it's family ties, sibling relationships, or spousal love, the key is who is useful to you and who you are useful to.

Ah Shao looked at his mother, Qiao Jingjing, with a mixture of understanding and confusion.

At that time, the two sisters, Big Bear and Little Bear, were in the yard, and Aro and Ye Rong were playing shuttlecock with them.

Hearing his two younger sisters' cheerful laughter, Ah Shao turned around and suddenly said to his mother:

"Mother is wrong! I don't know what Uncle's feelings are for Aunt. According to Mother's analysis, it's probably for the benefit of the family."

But Father wasn't like that with Mother!

Even at a young age, Ah Shao vaguely remembered his father's appearance.

All of her father Sun Ce's smiles and tenderness were reserved for her mother Qiao Jingjing.

That's not about interests, that's not about family ties.

In this life, Qiao Jingjing met A Shao and devoted herself to raising and patiently teaching him.

She then told Ashao, "In this world, there is another kind of value between men and women, and between women and men, called emotional value."

If you feel happy and joyful just looking at him, then he provides you with emotional value.

After Qiao Jingjing explained, A Shao finally understood.

Why did the younger sister-in-law, Sun Shangxiang, run away from home?

Why did my second uncle dislike my second aunt but like Madam Yuan?

Why did Sun Ce, the father, love his mother, Qiao Jingjing, so much?

It turns out it was because I liked it.

Because of that thing called emotional value.

The position of principal wife is currently vacant in Sun Quan's life.
