The blind date party ended successfully with the song "Holding Hands".
The next step was for everyone to participate in the chef competition. Qiao Xin did not participate, but personally sent the emperor and empress back to the palace and then went home!
If nothing unexpected happens, the eldest and the second oldest will be able to get home today.
But there are always people who don't know what's good for them.
As soon as Qiao Xin entered the mansion, Butler Yu came to greet her. He was old and frail, so he didn't join in the fun today. He stayed behind with a group of old people in the mansion to clean up the courtyards of the second master and the eldest master, waiting for the owner to move in.
"Madam, the Zhou family sent you a letter to invite you to come over!"
Qiao Xin was stunned for a few seconds and didn't react which Zhou family this was?
"The other party sent a visiting card to Master San a few days ago, but Master San didn't seem to go!"
Oh, Qiao Xin remembered, it was the third brother’s father’s family.
When these people heard that Qiao Yunting was going to marry a merchant girl, they couldn't sit still anymore!
She thought the other party had really given up. It turned out that he was rejected by Qiao Yunting and wanted to start with her?
Let her come to the house without considering whether they are worthy of each other!
"Um, what rank is the old lady of the Zhou family?"
Steward Yu is the chief steward of the Qiao Mansion in the capital. Although his family members rarely participate in gatherings in major mansions, he is well aware of the basic conditions of the most powerful and influential families in the capital.
"It seems to be the second rank! Madam, you are a super rank, they should come to you to ask to see you! It shouldn't be so rude."
"Tsk, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten about it. This time, let's just show off. Once the post is delivered to Master San, I will disappear.
Since they don't take an old woman like me seriously, there's nothing much for us to say. From now on, any news about the Zhou family should be passed directly to the Third Master, no need to send it to me!
By the way, remind your third master to send more people to the Wang family immediately. If others can’t get any good treatment here, they may take advantage of the Wang family.
Merchants are completely powerless against the aristocratic families.
If something happens to Miss Wang, don't get married tomorrow! Also, send more people to look after Silang and Wulang, so that the Zhou family won't take advantage of them."
Ah, what does the Third Master’s engagement with the Wang family have to do with the Zhou family?
Her parents agreed, her husband's family agreed, so why wouldn't the Zhou family, who have nothing to do with her, agree?
Could it be that one of the young ladies in the Zhou family has taken a fancy to their Third Master and wants to snatch him away to be her son-in-law?
With a head full of questions, Steward Yu sent the messenger from Zhou's family away and hurriedly sent someone to deliver a message to the Third Master.
When Qiao Yunting heard the message, he felt sick!
It's really like a dog-skin plaster, once it sticks you can't tear it off!
"What's wrong, Third Brother? Does Mother have any instructions?"
The tall and strong man riding side by side with Qiao Yunting saw that he looked unhappy and asked.
"No, it was the Zhou family who sent the invitation to my mother. They had the nerve to let my mother go to see them. My mother asked me to send someone to protect the Wang family."
"Are you trying to interfere in your marriage?"
"Well, it's the same old story. They dislike the Wang family's low status and want me to marry the one they picked. They also want to sow discord between me and my mother. Why are they so trusting?
I avoid them like the plague, how dare you come to their house? You really think I'm a fool!"
"What do you think? Avoiding me is not a solution. If this matter is not handled properly, your marriage may not go smoothly. Mother is obviously asking you to handle it yourself."
Qiao Yunting turned his face away and said stiffly: "I know, after picking up my second brother, I will go to the Zhou family in person!
Don't blame me, Erlang and the third son of Dingbianhou's family have been at loggerheads lately, and they act like enemies whenever they meet."
"Haha, Erlang, you are not an unreasonable person. He must be fighting back because others bully him! Who cares which family he is from? If he bullies others, he is not a good person, and I don't care."
Qiao Yunxin's voice was like a loud bell, and his eyes were full of energy. Hearing this, he was not angry but happy.
He should be worried if his son is weak and runs slower than a cow and dares not fight back when being bullied.
"Just spoil him. You don't act like a father at all!"
It had to be someone else like Xu who said this, but there was no sign of anger in her words.
Qiao Yunxin glanced at his wife, laughed, and said nothing more.
Xu is now dressed as a guard, looking very heroic.
Since learning martial arts from her mother-in-law, Xu has become more and more efficient, and she has gradually come to like this neat style of dressing.
As her husband has been stationed at the border for the past few years, she has encountered many dangers. If she continues to follow the example of the noble ladies in Kyoto, she will only hinder her husband.
In addition, her mother-in-law would write to her from time to time to urge her to study. Regardless of how Qiao Yunxin had changed in the past few years, Xu herself had been reborn.
She used to be a dodder that depended on her husband, but now she has grown into an independent trumpet creeper. Even if she leaves anyone now, she can survive well.
Qiao Yunting was also surprised by the change in his eldest sister-in-law. He vaguely saw the shadow of his mother in her.
Isn’t his elder brother afraid when facing his elder sister-in-law?
Also, his future daughter-in-law's eyes light up and she becomes shy when she talks about her mother. She never acts like this even when she is talking to herself?
Could it be that Caiwei will have to learn to behave like her mother in the future?
Qiao Yunting quickly stopped his ridiculous thoughts and didn't dare to think about it any further.
If his wife also behaves like his mother, he will never be able to take charge of the family in this life!
Erlang didn't know his parents were talking about him. After he sneezed twice, he saw the person he least wanted to see.
He felt that he had really bad luck today. He had just taken a stroll and was about to go to the South City Gate to wait for his uncle to pick up his parents, but he happened to run into two annoying guys, Lu Le and Heng Liang.
Based on the principle of less trouble is worse than more trouble, this time he plans not to move, and I will not move either!
But there are some people who only like to be remembered and not to be beaten. When I see him, I feel like I am possessed by a teddy bear. I will not feel comfortable if I don’t bark at him!
You said you should just flatter the Second Prince, why do you have to step on him?
Qiao Erlang had experienced a lot during this period of time, and his tolerance threshold had risen sharply. Seeing the other party jumping around like a clown, he was no longer in a hurry to speak.
Lu Le challenged Qiao Erlang who was standing on the roadside, "I heard that all the private rooms in our restaurant have been contracted out. I thought some distinguished guest was so generous, but it turned out to be you! Are you so short of money? You can tell me and I can give you a few taels!"
"Hahaha."
Laughter broke out all around!
Qiao Erlang rode on his horse, calm and generous, and said nonchalantly: "Okay, you are generous, can you give me 10,000 taels, the kind that I won't pay back!"
"you....."
Everyone was shocked.
