Qiao Xin looked at him and saw that he looked normal, so she knew that he was not trying to shirk responsibility. She felt a little strange. At such a young age, he was not dating or looking for a wife. Could it be that he had some health problems after what happened to Lin Baozhu?
Qiao Xin teased him, "You haven't gotten over it yet, or do you really not want to look for her anymore? Are you okay?"
Qiao Yunting twisted his ankle and sat on the ground, looking at Qiao Xin as if he had seen a ghost, his ears and face suddenly turned pink. How could his mother not care about anything and actually ask such a private question in public!
"Mother, what are you thinking? I'm just too busy. I don't have the heart to do it for the moment, and I haven't met anyone I like!" Qiao Yunting's tone was full of helplessness.
Qiao Xin did not think there was anything wrong with what she said: "It's good that you are not sick. If there is any problem, you must ask Doctor Mo to help you. Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you go, I'm afraid you will lose your identity.
The eldest princess's child, His Majesty's grandson, the third-rank general of Dajing, is handsome and has a bright future. He does not even have two concubines or maids around him, so he is a good candidate for son-in-law in the eyes of mothers-in-law in the capital.
You don't know how many families your second and eldest sisters-in-law have blocked for you during this period of time who wanted to marry you!"
Qiao Yunting curled his lips, feeling irritated: "Just reject them. The noble ladies in Kyoto are too pretentious and hypocritical. My son doesn't like them! My son wants to find a woman with a good heart who is willing to live a down-to-earth life. As long as she doesn't plot against Silang or Wulang, it doesn't matter if the other party has a lower status. But people's hearts are fickle. Many people seem to be fine, but once they have children, everything is different. Mom, my son has heard too many things like this!"
In his imperial guards, more than half of them have messy things in their families!
It is so rare to have such a friendly relationship between brothers and harmonious relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law like his family!
It was his deputy general Yuan Jinhong. Although he was the son of the Duke of Zhenguo, he seemed to have a high status in the eyes of outsiders, but in fact, the Duke's wife was completely devoted to his eldest brother, and his father favored the third son born by his childhood sweetheart.
In terms of money, the eldest brother is a guaranteed heir, and he will inherit the Duke's Mansion in the future. The third brother has a shop and a farm that his scumbag father subsidizes openly or secretly. But he is the only one who is not loved by his parents, grandparents, and has nothing. Even if the family is divided, he can't get much of the ancestral property.
Otherwise, why would the second son of the Duke's Mansion need to seek a status in the Imperial Guards?
There are also those who were originally illegitimate children, legitimate children, and illegitimate children. Most of them are not favored by their elders and have no chance to make a name for themselves in their lives...
Not to mention the grudge between the noble lady and the noble man, in which she loves him, he loves her, but she doesn't love him.
Qiao Yunting listened to gossip and ate melons every few days, but it also allowed him to see this group of people in the capital clearly.
Your circle is so chaotic!
They are just a bunch of disgusting people who appear glamorous on the surface, but do all kinds of dirty and disgusting things behind the scenes!
If he is allowed to find a woman to spend his life with in this filth again, he will be the one who is disgusting!
Seeing him pursing his lips and saying nothing, Qiao Xin knew that he was resisting in his heart, so she said earnestly: "You are just wishful thinking. There is no such thing as perfection in the world. You want someone to bear a child for you, but you don't want them to fight for your own child. This is contradictory in itself. You can't treat the same parents equally, let alone the children who didn't come out of the same belly."
"That's why I don't want to find another one. It's too much trouble! Now I can have peace and quiet!"
Qiao Xin also had a headache. Given the general environment, even if he supported the third son to live alone for the rest of his life, the emperor might not be happy about it, and neither might other people!
"Third brother, I'm not being nosy. If I force you to get married, once your identity is exposed, your father's family will definitely use you as a lifeline, just because they are in decline. They will definitely try to get you to return to their family.
By then, you won't be able to decide whether you like it or not. Take your marriage for example, there will definitely be many people plotting against you. If you still want to live alone like you do now, it will definitely not work. Even if I don't interfere and let you do what you want, His Majesty will still arrange a marriage for you. Later, your father's family will definitely shamelessly use filial piety as an excuse to fill a room with people with bad intentions for you.
You'd better know this in your mind. If you don't want to have another wife for no reason, you should pay more attention to it."
Qiao Yunting blurted out: "At worst, I can become a monk!"
Oh, what great ambition! Brother Xuebao gave up his hair to become a monk?
Qiao Yunting's choice can be considered unorthodox in this era, but the person he met was Qiao Xin, who did not value passing on the family line.
"Okay, no matter how you live, I respect you! Just don't regret it!"
Qiao Yunting rolled his eyes, stretched his head over, and said with a smile: "How about I marry a concubine who can take care of the backyard, but not give birth to children?"
Qiao Xin rolled her eyes at him and slapped him, "Get lost! Stop doing this evil thing! Do you think people are puppets that you can manipulate however you want?
Not only did you marry her as a concubine, but you also didn't allow her to give birth to a child for you to rely on. How can you be so shameless? Aren't you afraid that she will cause chaos in your harem?"
Qiao Yunting touched his nose, looked around and said, "Isn't this just a casual remark? It can't be taken seriously!"
"Hmm!" Qiao Xin snorted through her nose, picked up the tea and took a sip, tapping the table lightly with her fingers.
When a son grows up, he is no longer under the control of his mother. Qiao Xin does not want to control her son's life. She does not have the desire or the mind to do so.
No matter what kind of wife Qiao Yunting marries in the future, she will live with him. There is really no need for me to get involved too much!
If they get along well, she can just get along with Xu and Zhang like this. If they don't, she can exercise her rights as a mother-in-law and ask them to stay away from her!
Qiao Yunting leaned back and sat on the chair obediently, as obedient as a cat. When Nanny Qin came into the room carrying Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, she broke the silence in the room.
"Madam, should the remaining Buddha Jumps Over the Wall be sent to Yu Mancang?"
Qiao Yunting sat up straight at once, looked at Nanny Qin, and then glanced at Qiao Xin!
What is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall? We have invited monks to our home. Why do we need to send it to Yumancang?
"No need to bother. Didn't the third brother bring back a lot of people? Send it over so that everyone can have a taste!"
"Ah mother?"
"I'm free to make something to eat. You're back just in time. Let's have a taste! I'm afraid you won't be able to eat home-cooked meals for a long time since you just left the house!"
These words really touched Qiao Yunting's heart. What he missed most when he was away was his own home-cooked meals. He never got tired of eating them and missed them every day!
Qiao Yunting glanced at the soup bowl in Nanny Qin's hand and his throat rolled a few times, full of hints!
Qiao Xin........
