Chapter 62: The Marquis Tests Qiao Niang's Feelings
When he first met Chen Jingyan, Li Yuan didn't have any feelings. He just thought that he was taller and more powerful than ordinary people, and more handsome than ordinary people.
Apart from these, there is nothing else.
I always can't stand seeing a good-looking man. I like him like a hungry wolf pouncing on a sheep.
After dinner, Chen Jingyan got up and left, going straight back to Lanyuan.
Yun Qiao was eating at this time. She was a little busy today and had dinner a little late, but she didn't care whether the dinner was early or late.
I had just taken two bites when I heard the maid outside the door say, "The Marquis is here."
Yun Qiao hurriedly got up and walked outside.
I couldn't help but complain.
[You didn't come earlier or later, but happened to come when she was having dinner. Didn't you say you wanted to keep her company? Why did you come here?]
Chen Jingyan stepped into the doorway and looked at Yun Qiao, frowning slightly. "Why, you don't welcome my arrival?"
Yun Qiao: "I dare not."
Chen Jingyan stood there, looking at Yun Qiao, and said in a joking tone, "You'd better not dare. I know all the tricks in your heart."
Yun Qiao: No way?
Can the Marquis hear what I am thinking?
Chen Jingyan looked at her with a half-smile in his eyes.
Yun Qiao felt a chill in her heart. She could disguise herself very well in front of other people, but it seemed that she couldn't do it with Chen Jingyan.
"Look at what the Marquis said. How could I possibly play tricks on you, the Marquis?"
"My Lord, have you had dinner yet?"
Yun Qiao asked with concern.
Chen Jingyan said, "I ate a little at my grandmother's place."
Seeing that the food on the table had not been touched much, he was afraid that he had delayed Yunqiao's dinner.
"Just eat your own food."
Yun Qiao asked Xiao Tao to make tea and bring it to the Marquis. She sat down and started to eat. She was busy making eyebrow pencil and powder today. Although she was the main commander, she also participated in it. She was really tired and really hungry.
"I heard Li Yuan talking about you at dinner tonight. It seems she likes you quite a bit."
Chen Jingyan told Yun Qiao.
Yun Qiao paused while eating and said, "I also like my cousin. She is kind and beautiful, and deserves to be cherished."
When Chen Jingyan heard her words, he felt like he was being pushed away.
"What would you think if I married her?"
Chen Jingyan felt a little unhappy. He really wanted to know what Yun Qiao felt towards him.
Yun Qiao said cheerfully, "Of course it's wonderful, a hero and a beauty."
"Are you really speaking from the heart?" Chen Jingyan asked with an unhappy tone.
Yun Qiao was also wondering why Chen Jingyan was angry again for no reason.
"I'm speaking from the heart. The Marquis's wedding is a great joyous event for the entire Marquisate."
Chen Jingyan stopped asking because he was afraid that if he continued asking, he would get so angry that he would spit blood.
Finally, he said in a cold and hard tone, "Let's stay in Lanyuan tonight."
What else could Yun Qiao say? She naturally prepared everything and served the Marquis well.
The maids working in Lan Garden all knew the procedures for what to do when the Marquis stayed overnight. The main thing was to prepare enough hot water and stay away from the master bedroom. No matter what noise they heard from inside, they should not make a fuss.
The best thing to do is to just stay outside and guard the place.
But after eating and drinking, Yun Qiao didn't want to go to bed to exercise directly. She saw Chen Jingyan finish his tea and go to the small desk on the side, picked up a travelogue and began to read it attentively.
She took a stroll in the yard outside.
Xiaotao was accompanying him.
Seeing that the girl has not returned, this is not a solution.
"Miss, the Marquis is waiting inside. If you don't go back, he will get angry again."
Yun Qiao: "Isn't he angry enough?"
I really don’t know what Chen Jingyan was thinking. This cousin Li Yuan came here to marry him, Chen Jingyan, but he chose to stay in Lanyuan at this time.
Li Yuan would definitely be angry if he knew about this.
Not to mention that Li Yuan is angry, I'm afraid the old lady will also be angry if she knows.
Yun Qiao originally thought that she would establish a good relationship with Li Yuan. When Li Yuan became Chen Jingyan's wife in the future, if she couldn't tolerate her, Yun Qiao would just leave. Wouldn't that be fulfilling her wish?
Chen Jingyan's behavior today might cause Yun Qiao to directly offend Li Yuan.
However, as Chen Jingyan's concubine, she could not refuse his request for sex.
"No matter how much the girl dislikes it, we are in this situation and can only compromise like this."
"From what I've seen so far, this Li family cousin is a good person. I think she will become the Marquis' wife in the future and will not treat her harshly."
Yun Qiao looked at Xiao Tao, somewhat surprised.
"I never thought that my little peach has grown a brain now."
Xiao Tao was so angry at her words that she stomped her feet.
"Miss, you are making fun of this slave again."
She had just walked around when she was called over by Qiu Chan who came to look for her.
"Good aunt, please go quickly. The Marquis is getting anxious and has even stopped reading. He wants to know where you are."
"Fortunately, Sister Yuan went there and chatted with the Marquis for a few words."
Yun Qiao asked, "Sister Yuan is in the side courtyard, why did she go to my courtyard?"
Yuan Jie'er has been attending a private school for nearly half a month. Because she is studying, Yun Qiao arranged a small courtyard for her to stay in, and let Achun and another old maid accompany her.
To be honest, Yuan Jie'er was raised by Chen Jingyan. Yun Qiao does not have any motherly feelings for her, but she will do her best to raise her.
But this feeling is not very deep.
As Yun Qiao arrived at the door, she heard Yuan Jie'er talking to Chen Jingyan:
"Auntie has always been very good to Ayuan, and Ayuan likes her very much. When Ayuan grows up, she will be filial to her."
"At such a young age, you have such a delicate mind. That's quite good."
Chen Jingyan praised.
When I looked up, I saw Yun Qiao.
"You taught Ayuan very well."
Yun Qiao smiled slightly, "Ayuan has always been nice, it's not my credit."
"Take Ayuan back to rest. I told you long ago that after dinner, help her go to bed early. You still have to study tomorrow, so you don't have to come to me to pay your respects in the morning or evening. You can come anytime you have time."
She is not a serious mother, so there is no need for her to use these rules.
Besides, Yun Qiao likes not to sleep at night and not to get up during the day. She is not used to Ayuan's rule of paying respects in the morning and evening.
Just save the trouble.
But I can’t always tell people, I don’t want to get up early, so don’t come.
This is the only way to say it from the perspective of caring about children.
Ah Chun hurried forward and said, "Auntie, you're right. I remember everything. This is Sister Yuan, seeing the Marquis coming, so she came to pay her respects and say hello."
Yun Qiao said, "He's a filial child, very thoughtful."
"Okay, Ayuan, go and rest with Sister Achun. Don't stay up late at night. Go to bed early."
"Yes, thank you Auntie for your concern and care."
After Achun took his men away, Yunqiao called the maid into the house to help them wash up.
The man, who was just halfway through his bath, could no longer wait behind a curtain. He pushed the servant away and walked towards Yunqiao in the bathtub.
