Chapter 186 Dealing with Xu Pozi's Family
After hearing what Yun Qiao said, Chen Jingyan also understood the interests involved.
He actually took these things lightly.
"If you want to investigate Mrs. Xu's family, you still have to go to Jiangcheng."
Yun Qiao was ready to rest and just said it casually.
"I have to go. I think it's best to go. Otherwise, wouldn't I miss the opportunity to see how much the Xu family has embezzled from the Marquis' Mansion?"
Chen Jingyan hummed softly.
Then he asked Yun Qiao another question.
"Mai Dong told me that she was going to Jiangcheng after the New Year. She asked if you had promised her this?"
Yun Qiao nodded and looked at Chen Jingyan.
"I agreed. She wanted to go and see, probably her adoptive mother. She looked a little off. I wonder if something happened to her adoptive mother?"
Yun Qiao guessed what Mai Dong was thinking, but she didn't say much. She couldn't guess what she was thinking, so she could only tell Chen Jingyan her guess.
Unexpectedly, Chen Jingyan's face turned cold.
"Something really happened."
"Mother Qiao, let's go to Jiangcheng."
Yun Qiao: "Is it for Ophiopogon japonicus?"
Yun Qiao always thought that Chen Jingyan didn't care enough about Mai Dong, but when she heard Chen Jingyan say that he was going to Jiangcheng, Yun Qiao was still surprised.
"Yes and not entirely. It just so happens that you are going to Jiangcheng too. After the New Year, we can go there together."
Yun Qiao smiled and said okay!
After washing up, they lay down to sleep.
There is a stove burning in the house, and the charcoal used is the best. There is no smoke at all, and it burns very well. The house is warm and comfortable.
Perhaps because there was a man sleeping next to her with a big heater on, Yun Qiao woke up several times during the night, all because of the heat.
Compared with them, the Xu family who were locked in the leaky kitchen seemed extremely miserable. Since taking over the farm, the Xu family had never suffered such hardship.
"Dad, Mom, I'm cold. I'm going to freeze to death."
"Stop howling, you won't be cold if you cry out."
Mrs. Xu cursed loudly and then yelled, "You bunch of bastards! I have food and drink, and I haven't been without your help. Now I'm in trouble, and you won't even give me a blanket."
"Wait for the Marquis to check the account books and clear the Xu family's name. Wait for me, Mrs. Xu, to get out. I will punish you one by one."
The next morning, when Yun Qiao got up, she heard Qiu Ye talking to her with a smile.
"That Xu family was crying out in the first half of the night, and in the second half they were so cold they couldn't speak."
"Look, he's clamoring to see the Marquis."
Yun Qiao pursed her lips, smiled faintly, and said, "The Marquis said that we won't investigate them before the New Year. We'll lock them up for now and investigate them again after the New Year."
"After breakfast, call everyone in the manor over so I can have a few words with you. Also, the manager of this manor needs a replacement."
Qiu Ye was curious and asked in a low voice, "Princess, which maid do you want to change?"
"But you still remember Miss Sun."
"Miss Sun? She was the Marquis's former concubine. How dare you..."
Chen Jingyan, one of the parties involved, had no memory of Miss Sun after hearing about her.
"Which Miss Sun?" he asked.
Yun Qiao shook her head helplessly for Sun Sisi, "Does the Marquis really have no impression at all?"
After all, she had been a concubine in the Marquis's Mansion for several years, but he had no impression of it at all.
When this man doesn't love you, he is really heartless and loveless.
"The Marquis is indeed a heartless person."
"How dare you say that I am a heartless person?" Chen Jingyan ignored the maid in front of him, reached out and grabbed Yun Qiao's hand, then pulled it into his arms. He reached out and lifted the woman's chin, lowered his head slightly, and the two looked at each other intently.
Yun Qiao smiled faintly.
"The Marquis is the best man in the world."
"You're quite sweet-talking. You know just the right words and the right time to say them."
Otherwise, how could he have gotten so caught up in it?
It’s a pity that he can’t continue to hear her voice.
Qiu Ye was laughing silently in a corner, looking at the princess and the marquis, how happy they are after getting married.
She thought that when she got married in the future, she would definitely live a happy life.
The princess asked her whether she wanted to get married and move out or continue to stay in the marquis's mansion, and she arranged a marriage for her.
After all, people are different from each other.
Xiaotao doesn't want to get married and plans to be a maiden.
Qiu Chan wanted to follow the princess's arranged marriage and marry a steward in the marquis's mansion, and also work for the princess.
Qiu Ye's choice was to leave the Marquis' Mansion, saying that her family planned to take her back, and she would choose a husband after she returned.
She thought, her family couldn't possibly lie to her.
Yun Qiao was very kind to the three maids in front of her, and always put herself in their shoes.
She also specifically asked some questions about Qiuye's family. She learned that Qiuye's brother often came to Qiuye to borrow money. He said he was borrowing money, but in fact he was just asking for money and would not pay it back.
