Chapter 479 The Emperor and Empress Talk About Marriage


0

Everyone was shocked when they heard this and looked at the birthday boy.

Qiao Xin stood up calmly, bowed to the people present and said, "A distinguished guest has come to visit us. Would you like to follow me to greet him?"

Is there any need to explain this? That's His Majesty!

Now he actually showed up at a woman's birthday party. His Majesty's favor to the Qiao family might not be as simple as everyone imagined, and it is not something that some people can achieve their goals with just a few words of instigation!

Qiao Xin led everyone to the second gate, where they met the emperor and empress and the Qi Wang couple in plain clothes. After a round of greetings, Qiao Xin led the empress to the resting place for the women!

Wang Caiwei held Xu's hand and looked at her with concern, trying to draw some strength from her.

At this moment, not only were her hands and feet shaking, but her mind was also blank. As the emperor's nephew's wife, her background was always a shortcoming that outsiders criticized.

If I am summoned by the Queen in a while, I don’t know if the Queen will…

Xu herself was also panicked, but as the eldest sister-in-law, she had to support her sisters-in-law.

"Don't be afraid, you have your mother here. You are recognized by both your mother and the third brother!"

Wang Caiwei nodded, took a few deep breaths, calmed herself down, and inexplicably felt a little more courageous!

But Zhang's appearance made Xu a little worried. For the sake of the second and third brothers' faces, she had to give a few more instructions: "Second brother's wife, just follow me for a while. Think about the child before you speak!"

Zhang pursed her lips and responded softly.

Now she only has her son to rely on, and she can still stand here because of the Qiao family's consideration for Sanlang.

I really can't hold Sanlang back any longer. My husband has already separated from me, this is no different from a divorce!

Thinking that Qiao Yunqing would marry again in the future and give his former love to her to another woman, she felt so heartbroken!

But now, regret is too late to make up for it, he still has Sanlang and Liulang, as long as Qiao Yunqing never remarries, he still has hope. And there can be no more mistakes with the mother-in-law, she is the one who can decide his life or death with just one word!

Seeing that Zhang didn't show any joy on her wedding day, Xu looked at Wang Caiwei with a worried look on her face.

The two of them made a tacit decision that they would keep an eye on Jin Zheng from the front and back. If anything went wrong, they would come out immediately and never give her any chance to ruin the wedding banquet!

Fortunately, Zhang was not completely confused, and she responded appropriately when the Queen summoned her!

Seeing that she was also calm, Qiao Xin did not say much, but waved to Xu: "I am not afraid of being laughed at by the two ladies. My daughters-in-law are all filial. Over the years, no matter what I do, I have never seen my daughters-in-law say no! She handles all the affairs of the family in an orderly manner, which saves me a lot of worries.

All the arrangements today were made by the eldest daughter-in-law and her sisters-in-law. I didn’t have to do anything. Look at the circles under my eyes. Have they turned blue from all the hard work?”

The Queen Mother didn't expect that Qiao Xin would notice even these small details. When she saw Xu's bright smile again, she sighed in her heart.

The relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the Qiao family might be better than she imagined!

The Queen was actually envious in her heart, and at the same time, she became more determined to succeed in what she was about to say!

She praised generously: "The old lady is really good at choosing daughters-in-law! It is a blessing for them to be your daughters-in-law!"

Qiao Xin shook her head, and instead exposed her family's dirty laundry, laughing and joking: "I can't take the credit for this. Our three children are all very opinionated, and they all chose their own daughter-in-law.

I'm not afraid of being laughed at by the queen. There aren't so many taboos in the countryside. Women can't stay at home like the people in the rich families. They have to do their part to support the family.

When the eldest son's wife was at her parents' home, she shouldered the burden of the family and took care of her younger brothers. What our eldest son valued was her sense of responsibility.

Their backgrounds were somewhat inferior, but these were not something the children could decide for themselves. If they could choose, who wouldn't want to have a noble father and a wealthy mother?

But God doesn't always follow our wishes. We can't be born almost dead, right?

There is an old saying that goes, "Birth is given by parents, but skills are learned by oneself." If the eldest daughter-in-law were a man, she could become a general with her current skills. The third daughter-in-law would definitely be rich.

How could I be like this now, messing around with my stupid sons and wasting my talents!

The people present didn't expect Qiao Xin to speak so highly of her daughter-in-law! Qiao Xin looked so proud of herself, which showed that she was not just saying the opposite of what she meant, but was also being yin and yang!

The Queen Mother and Princess Qi looked at each other and then quickly looked away, obviously thinking of the days when they were daughters-in-law and were bullied by the Queen Mother!

They both have daughters, and they definitely don’t want their children to go through the same hardship again!

Don’t think that it’s easy to marry a princess or a princess!

The fact is just the opposite. People all say: "Marry a princess and you will end up with an official."

That's not marrying a wife, that's marrying an ancestor to be worshipped. Any man with a little bit of ambition would not be happy about it.

In addition, the princesses of the previous dynasty behaved too absurdly, causing everyone from the nobles to the common people to regard marrying a princess as a terrible thing as the plague, and everyone was afraid to avoid it. Of the fifteen princesses of the last emperor, eight were not married.

Few princesses who get married are happy.

Qiao Yunting's mother was just like that. She was guarded against by her husband's family all her life, and they would kill her if they got the chance.

The previous generation dug a hole, and the next generation will suffer.

They are all descendants of the Liu family, so people don’t believe that the current princess can be a good one.

This resulted in the three princesses of Emperor Wu and the two daughters of King Qi being unable to settle down when they reached marriageable age, and they all became so worried about finding a husband that their hair turned white.

Emperor Wu couldn't really marry his daughter to a commoner. He searched all the civil and military officials in the court, but couldn't find a single person who was not prejudiced.

It was obvious that he and the queen had learned from the lessons of the previous dynasty and had brought up the princess to be sensible and reasonable. However, the officials were afraid of the ropes after being bitten once. They would rather resign from their posts, even at the cost of beheading, than marry the princess.

He arranged a marriage for his eldest daughter, who was married to a man from a wealthy family, but she was not very happy.

As a father, he refrained from intervening, fearing that it would set a bad precedent and make it more difficult for his daughters to marry in the future.

Even though the king of a country had lowered his attitude so much, the noble family still refused to accept it. Seeing that the second princess had reached the age of marriage, he was worried about this matter, but the second princess actually took the initiative to tell him that she had set her eyes on Qiao Erlang!

This is also the purpose of the emperor and empress condescending to appear at the Qiao Mansion together today.
