Qiao Wulang was stunned for a moment, and the pastry in his mouth tasted like wax.
My brother rushed over to express his opinion first. Should I hug my grandma and cry too?
No matter how slow he was, he knew that if he didn't do something, his grandmother would leave him just like his mother!
He was about to howl at the top of his lungs, but was interrupted by a hurried voice.
"Grandma, is this true?"
Qiao Dalang, Qiao Sanlang, and Qiao Silang walked in quickly, not even bothering to say hello to their parents!
Following behind them were Qiao Yunqing's family of three who had just arrived in Beijing, and several granddaughters who had just rushed over from the backyard!
Well, now she doesn’t have to inform everyone one by one, everyone is here!
Qiao Xin took the handkerchief handed over by Nanny Qin and wiped the sweat off the faces of the two brothers.
"You brothers have finished your work, you are sweating all over, and you didn't even change your clothes before coming here. Aren't you afraid of catching a cold? Dalang, your parents are over there, why don't you go and meet them?
"Second brother, what are you all doing standing outside the door? Come in!"
Qiao Yunqing came in with Zhang and the youngest son. After greeting the eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, and third brother, they found a place to sit down.
At the moment, no one has the joy of reunion after a long separation.
Qiao Dalang glanced at his parents and didn't say anything. Instead, he and Qiao Sanlang stubbornly held Qiao Xin's hands and insisted on an answer.
Qiao Xin sighed, "You kids are real, why are you in such a hurry? You are grown up now, and I will tell you everything you want to know in a while. Go see your parents first and wash up, okay?"
Seeing his grandmother's attitude, Qiao Dalang had no choice but to do as she said.
Qiao Xin sent his grandson away and turned his gaze to the old woman behind Zhang, or to be more precise, the little meat ball in her arms!
Qiao Xin waved at him, but the child turned his head away, hugged the old woman's neck and said nothing.
Seeing this, Qiao Yunqing quickly picked him up and put him on the ground, then said, "Liu Lang, that's your grandmother, go and pay your respects to her!"
The child was probably new to the unfamiliar environment, and he looked up at the people sitting in the upper seats!
Seeing that he didn't recognize the person, he subconsciously struggled and was about to leave Qiao Yunqing's arms and move closer to Zhang!
Zhang subconsciously hugged the child in her arms and said, "Mother, Xiaoliu is still young and has been sitting in a carriage for such a long time. He may be a little confused and a little timid. I hope you won't blame me!"
Qiao Xin glanced at her, and Zhang's face became hot, and the smile on her lips could no longer be maintained.
Qiao Xin retracted her gaze and stopped talking to let her grandson come forward. She said calmly, "Well, no matter how stingy I am, I won't bother with a child! I just want to remind you that there are a lot of things going on in the mansion recently. Let the people around you keep an eye on the children and don't let anything go wrong!"
After saying that, Qiao Xin waved her hand and sent the person away.
"You brothers, take your people back to your own yards and rest for a while. We'll meet again at dinner time!"
Qiao Yunqing's smile turned serious: "Mother, it's Xiaoliu who is ignorant. I will discipline him well!"
"He's still young, and it's his first time meeting us. It's normal for him to be timid. Don't give a cold shoulder to a little kid. Go!"
Qiao Xin stood up from the chair, without even looking at her sons' reactions, she turned around and went into the inner room!
Nanny Qin came in carrying a basin. Seeing Qiao Xin lying in the rocking chair with her eyes closed, she couldn't help but lighten her footsteps, rolled up a wet towel and gently wiped Qiao Xin's forehead!
Looking at Qiao Xin's hair gradually turning white, my heart ached.
She thought she was alone, but she never imagined that the old lady was also a wanderer like her, living her whole life for others!
"What's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
Qiao Xin opened her eyes at some point and looked at Nanny Qin with red eyes in surprise and confusion.
Nanny Qin came back to her senses and sniffed in an inelegant manner: "No one, the hot water just irritated my eyes!"
Qiao Xin took the handkerchief, wiped her face, then peeled an orange and handed it to Nanny Qin.
"The activity over at Yu Mancang should be over. I wonder how many pairs these guys have formed?"
"Someone from the concierge has already responded. Except for a few who think it's inappropriate, it's basically done!"
"Okay, it's a happy ending. Don't force them if they haven't found the one. It's really important for people to get along with each other! Just like Xiaoliu and I, we don't get along with each other!"
Nanny Qin thought Qiao Xin was still feeling upset about the incident and couldn't help but try to persuade her a few more times.
Qiao Xin waved her hands and said, "Why should I bother with a kid like him? I don't lack filial grandchildren! I don't need him! If we don't get along, we just need to stay away from each other.
Mammy, once the third son's marriage is settled, I plan to divide the family!"
With a "clang", the basin in Qin Ma's hand fell to the ground, soaking her clothes, but she couldn't care less about it at the moment.
What is the old lady doing? She throws firecrackers one after another, making him dizzy.
"Divide...separate the family?"
The maids outside heard the noise and hurried in to clean up. Qiao Xin immediately stopped the topic and lay back down!
It's a pity that she is destined not to have a good rest today!
Qiao Xin held the visiting card sent by Yu Guanjia and looked at it over and over again, thinking that the other party came really quickly, but she didn't know whether he came to apologize or to get an explanation.
But this calligraphy is quite nice, and it is obviously from a great person!
Qiao Xin closed the visiting card and handed it to Steward Yu, not bothering to read the rest.
"Send it to the yards of the eldest and third masters. This is Erlang and Wulang's business. It's their turn as fathers to take care of it! I won't ask any more questions!"
Nanny Qin glanced at Qiao Xin carefully, lowered her eyes, her gaze fell on her clenched fists, and pursed her lips!
Is the old lady planning to stop caring about things so soon?
"By the way, go and tell those girls who have already been chosen to go to Lao Hu Town, and wait until the third brother's wedding is done, and then hold a wedding for them, which will not exceed two months.
During this time, let Manager Cao work hard to prepare the red silk wedding dress and other things. If we all purchase the wedding supplies together, we can save a lot of money! These children have no elder parents, so the expenses will be paid from my personal account! "
"Madam, isn't this too expensive? The house is ready, the guards have been paid well in the Qiao family over the years, and I have some savings. It's enough to start a family. It's not a small amount to ask you to pay for everything."
Qiao Xin said nonchalantly: "The budget for each person is twenty taels, which is not a large amount. Just treat it as a token of friendship between master and servant!"
Manager Yu was horrified after hearing this and didn't dare to say anything more. He quickly agreed and turned around to go about his business!
He was afraid that the old lady would say that they should go their separate ways the next moment!
