evening.
Qiao Yuchen walked back from outside with a gloomy expression.
Upon seeing Qiao Yuchen like this, Chen Siyuan immediately stepped forward and asked cautiously, "Why did you get up?"
"I can't lie here any longer, get up and take a look." Chen Siyuan said, glancing at Qiao Yuchen, but she didn't completely confront this man.
This is a way to protect Wang Li, and also a way to gauge Qiao Yuchen's wariness of him.
Never easily trust a man, especially in your current relationship. Becoming invisible in his presence is definitely not a good idea.
On the contrary, it could bring death upon oneself and those around them.
"Then you too..."
Chen Siyuan let Qiao Yuchen carry her into the inner room. As she lay down on the bed, she took the opportunity to speak, "Chunlan and the other two have also arrived. I want them to serve me."
"Alright." What Qiao Yuchen didn't say was that after today, he replaced everyone inside and outside the East Garden with his own people, so some things would definitely not happen.
He knew about Chunlan, Chunping, and Wang Li, and he also knew their capabilities. He couldn't say anything about having Chunlan and Chunping by his side. However, Wang Li, as a man, was somewhat unwilling to have his woman by his side, even if he didn't have that intention now. But seeing the woman's expression, he couldn't bring himself to refuse and could only agree in the end.
With familiar people around, Chen Siyuan felt much more at ease.
The General's Mansion was not as simple as it seemed. He had long suspected that things would not be easy, but he still underestimated everything.
Qiao Yuchen was still blaming himself for not protecting the woman.
Even though he knew this family wasn't as simple as it seemed, he still hurt the woman.
He wished he were the one who got hurt, rather than see the woman in such a state.
As the two remained silent, footsteps sounded outside.
Chen Siyuan looked at Qiao Yuchen.
Qiao Yuchen gave a look, and a maid left. Soon, they heard commotion outside.
"lady--"
Upon hearing the commotion, Chen Siyuan immediately looked at Qiao Yuchen, who was also quite annoyed by the woman's arrival.
The woman's injury is her yard; if you say it wasn't due to this woman's 'contribution,' no one would believe it, no matter where you go.
What is she doing here at this time?
Thinking about it isn't a good thing either.
Hearing the sound of someone entering, Qiao Yuchen looked at the woman and covered her with a blanket. "You rest, I'll take care of this old lady."
These words were spoken through gritted teeth, with a hint of cannibalism in them.
Chen Siyuan didn't say anything after hearing this.
Let them make a scene, let them fight, it would be better if they all died one by one.
Don't blame Chen Siyuan for being ruthless; her injury this time has made many people see things clearly.
Nobody cares about her, so why should she care about them?
"Why are you here?" Qiao Yuchen sat in his seat like a lord, only glancing at Madam Qiao standing beside him.
Mrs. Qiao glanced at Qiao Yuchen with a complex expression, then quickly sat down next to him and looked at Zhang Ma.
Zhang Ma was reluctant, but thinking of Qiao Yang, who was still injured and had just woken up, she felt very sorry for him.
This made him even more disgusted with Chen Siyuan.
As a servant, she knew what to do at this time.
He glanced back at the maids standing outside. They arrived quickly, bringing the things they were carrying to him one by one.
"These are all top-quality tonics, to help Yuan'er recover."
"You'd be so kind?" Qiao Yuchen asked directly, showing no mercy to others.
Madam Qiao's face stiffened for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure. "Since you have married this young lady, you should know that she is now the young mistress of the General's Mansion."
As she spoke, she looked at Qiao Yuchen and smiled slightly.
"To what extent can you protect her? Do you mean protecting her every second, or can you control what those people outside say?"
To put it bluntly, Qiao Yuchen's excessive protection can also be considered a form of harm.
Chen Siyuan's ability to gain a foothold in Jingchen cannot be accomplished by Qiao Yuchen alone.
How could Qiao Yuchen not hear the threat in those words? "Mrs. Qiao, are you reminding me?"
"You can think that way too?" Madam Qiao looked at Qiao Yuchen, smiled slightly, but her eyes darkened even more.
"Fine, if that's the case, then I don't think this place is the right place for us. I'll move tomorrow." With that, he precisely swept the teacup off the table and onto the floor.
With a loud crash, the maids who had been standing in front of the tonics seemed to have been hit in the legs by something, and they all knelt on the ground, looking very painful.
Madam Qiao was furious when she saw this. She stood up abruptly and looked at Qiao Yu Chen, "Second Young Master is really capable. I wonder how long he can maintain this ability!"
After saying this, he didn't look at Qiao Yuchen's expression and left.
Seeing that things were not going well, Zhang Ma quickly followed.
As soon as the two of them stepped into the courtyard, several maids they had brought with them flew out of the house and crashed to the ground in front of them.
Madam Qiao's expression immediately changed, and she had to force herself to walk out of the East Garden.
Zhang Ma has experienced all sorts of things, but she has never seen such an arrogant person.
He was just an illegitimate child found outside, from who-knows-where, and still no one knows which woman gave birth to him. It's likely that he was some wild woman who somehow became involved with General Qiao.
Thinking about it, I suddenly found it funny. He's still a child whose birth mother is unknown. What's there to be arrogant about?
Seeing Mrs. Qiao leave, she quickly followed.
She felt a pang of sympathy as she watched Mrs. Qiao walk faster and faster.
Having served Mrs. Qiao for over ten years, I have never seen anyone dare to treat her like this.
He wondered if he should find someone to teach that arrogant person a lesson.
I don't even know where I'm standing.
Mrs. Qiao only lost her son recently and has no one to rely on. If it were before, she would have just kicked such a piece of junk out.
Where does this arrogance come from?
Zhang Ma followed Madam Qiao back to the courtyard. Just as she was about to speak, General Qiao walked in from outside, and she swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
What's wrong with you?
Mrs. Qiao smiled slightly, "It's nothing."
“General, the lady just visited the second young master and the young mistress, but unexpectedly…” Zhang Ma wanted to explain for Madam Qiao so that General Qiao could take the opportunity to teach Qiao Yuchen a lesson, but she was scolded by Madam Qiao.
"Get down!"
Zhang Ma seemed hesitant, but considering Madam Qiao's current situation, she seemed to understand what was going on and left reluctantly.
With no outsiders around, Madam Qiao's eyes reddened, and General Qiao quickly went over to comfort her.
Mrs. Qiao leaned against the man and began to cry, feeling wronged. "Was I wrong? Was I really wrong?"
General Qiao's face was very grim, and he didn't say anything.
