Mrs. Qiao said a lot.
Chen Siyuan's eyes also reddened.
How could any mother not love her child? If they hadn't experienced some unexpected changes, if they hadn't tried their best but still couldn't change the outcome, every mother would rather her child live an ordinary life than face those painful past experiences.
Chen Siyuan felt very conflicted, and she didn't say anything.
Having no children of my own, I cannot understand the pain Mrs. Joe felt when she lost her child.
Mrs. Qiao talked until dark, her throat becoming hoarse, as if she wanted to pour out all her words at once, only in this way could she suppress the pain in her heart.
As the sky outside gradually darkened, Chen Siyuan's hand was still in Madam Qiao's palm. She dared not pull it out and was about to ask the maid to come in and light the lamp when she saw a familiar figure standing in the distance at the door.
Chen Siyuan didn't know when he arrived, but seeing the complicated look in Qiao Yuchen's eyes, she figured he must have heard a lot.
They are not mother and son, yet they are mother and son.
It just so happens that Qiao Yuchen has no mother, and Mrs. Qiao has no children, and Qiao Yuchen is currently registered under Mrs. Qiao's name.
We're all pitiful people, so it's good that we can walk together like this.
Mrs. Qiao is not a bad person; she often shows concern for others quietly. Qiao Yuchen is not a decent person, but he respects Mrs. Qiao. Being together provides comfort to each other, which is a good thing.
Chen Siyuan was about to ask Qiao Yuchen to come over, but unexpectedly, he turned around and left.
She could only remain silent and withdrawn.
Not long after, the butler arrived.
They say General Qiao has returned and is looking for Madam Qiao.
Hearing this, Madam Qiao understood perfectly. Without saying anything more, she quickly told Chen Siyuan to take care of herself and left in a hurry.
Chen Siyuan was confused. What exactly was Madam Qiao here for?
......
The capital city.
A large courtyard that had been idle for more than ten years suddenly became bustling with people coming and going every day.
Passersby stopped out of curiosity and peered inside.
This was originally the residence of the previous prime minister, but it has been left vacant ever since the current prime minister, Yuwen Kang, was single and unwilling to live in such a large residence.
Seeing such a commotion, could it be that the Prime Minister has changed his mind and is moving in?
Thinking of this, everyone who walks into this area will come over to take a look.
After watching the meeting for a few days, I felt that the commotion was a bit too much and not in line with the Prime Minister's style.
What exactly happened?
Looking across the entire capital, the only person qualified to live in this place is the Prime Minister; there is no one else.
......
Chen Siyuan went out into the street feeling depressed.
I didn't take a carriage, I just wandered around.
Seeing that the young mistress was in a bad mood, the two maids quietly followed behind.
They didn't know what was wrong.
As Chen Siyuan walked, she heard people talking on the street.
Prime Minister?
Yuwen Kang?
She had been thinking about this person not long ago, so she was a little surprised to suddenly hear his name.
Everyone knew that the prime minister did not live in the prime minister's residence.
Could it be that Yuwen Kang has finally come to his senses due to his advanced age?
Thinking of this, Chen Siyuan decided to go and take a look.
I was thinking about this person not long ago; it seems the prime minister is about to return from his mission to various countries.
The Emperor must have deliberately created this commotion to reward him.
Thinking and walking, they soon arrived outside the Prime Minister's residence.
Just from the open door, you can tell how luxurious it is inside; it must be the most extravagant place in the entire capital, apart from the imperial palace.
None of the princes' residences are as grand as this one.
The Prime Minister's residence was the face of the Shang Kingdom, reflecting the Emperor's high regard for the Prime Minister.
If General Qiao held military power in the capital, it could serve as a deterrent to foreign powers, but internally, the position belonged to the prime minister.
This man was extremely busy, and his power was second only to the emperor among the court officials. Everyone had to show him deference.
This is because he truly achieved a position second only to the emperor.
Chen Siyuan couldn't help but wonder if things were really about to change.
The prime minister's return at this particular time must be to take charge of the overall situation.
Thinking about this, Chen Siyuan suddenly felt that the little bit of trouble in her heart was nothing.
Last night, Qiao Yuchen suddenly left. Chen Siyuan had been waiting for him to return for a long time. She originally wanted to talk about Mrs. Qiao, but Qiao Yuchen, who was usually very easy to talk to, didn't even let her finish speaking before leaving.
The reason is very simple: he's busy, he's very busy.
snort--
Men, never expect too much.
After witnessing the commotion at the Prime Minister's Mansion, we walked to Su's Pastry Shop.
For some reason, Wang Li's investigation seems to be progressing rather slowly this time.
In the past, we would have found out very quickly. This time, she asked Wang Li to investigate when Su Ji Pastry Shop closed down, but there has been no news until now.
This is a small matter, but it reveals the strangeness of the situation.
She had only mentioned it casually when she heard it that day, but because Wang Li hadn't given her any definite news for a long time, she felt uneasy about it.
Accompanied by two maids, they quickly arrived at Su's Pastry Shop.
I bought some things, but didn't find anything interesting, so I left quickly.
Walking along the road, she wasn't in a hurry to go to Nanguan Street. She strolled slowly, looking at the crowd around her. Suddenly, she noticed a few styles that were different from the ones she had seen before, and the quality of them... was rather ordinary.
Yes, it's just ordinary.
The style is somewhat similar to that of Nanguan Street.
What's going on?
Did you open a new and more established store during your absence?
"Chunping, what do you think of the light pink dress in front of you?"
When Chunlan and Chunping looked over, the first thing they noticed was that the dress had an ethereal, fairy-like quality.
"nice."
"And what about our clothes?"
Chunping reacted quickly, "I wonder whose shop is trying to imitate us." She had designed this style herself before, and it was slightly different from what she saw in front of her, but also very similar.
Chunlan instantly flew into a rage, "Young Madam, I'm going to teach them a lesson."
"Do you know who it is?"
Chunlan immediately fell silent.
He immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "Young Madam, I was wrong."
Chen Siyuan watched the person wearing that outfit walk away, tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then ate another pastry. "Actually, being imitated isn't a bad thing."
Just like in the beginning, I was also intentionally imitating the achievements of others.
However, those details haven't been made public yet, so others don't know about them.
But she felt that the people who designed those clothes must be feeling uncomfortable.
