Qiao Xin immediately remembered who this person was. Wasn't this the handsome young boy among the first batch of Nanliang criminal slaves that she bought?
The little master that Heiya cares about, the only little guy who asked to return to his hometown!
At the beginning, she asked Doctor Mo to cure the man's illness and remove the ink punishment on his face, and allowed him to sneak back to Nanliang and infiltrate the palace step by step. She had already prepared for him to never come back.
After all, among that group of people, there were Gu Zaixing and Gu Lan, father and daughter, and Heiya, the loyal eldest girl. The others also settled down in Laohu Town and worked for her.
The profit from that transaction had already exceeded her expectations, but the young boy was still obsessed with returning to Nanliang.
Qiao Xin remembered that he and Shunzi had close contact in the first few years, and with the joint efforts of the two, they expanded Nanliang's business several times.
After Zhu Zhen entered Jinling, the two sides completely cut off contact for Shi Jingmo's safety.
Later I heard that he made a lot of efforts in helping the boss to recover Jiangnan.
Now he was highly valued by Emperor Wu and was given the titles of general and county lord.
In addition to his own achievements, it is probably also related to his identity as the uncle of the Southern Liang Dynasty!
Now that he appears in her house so carelessly, isn't he afraid that others will find out about his past?
Any powerful official in a high position would try to avoid that shameful past!
When Qiao Xin looked at her old friend again, she felt that life was unpredictable.
The weak young boy at that time has also become a hero defending his country!
"Young General, you are no longer the same as you were before. What happened in the past is in the past. General, don't worry that my Qiao family will interfere and ruin your future!"
Shi Jingmo smiled and replied, "Old Madam, you misunderstood. Jingmo is where he is today thanks to your help! How can I be ungrateful? Without the Qiao family, I wouldn't be where I am today. Now that I have achieved success, how can I forget the old madam's kindness in helping me."
"It's just a small favor. You don't have to take it to heart. Just live a good life in the future. I really miss my old friends. You are welcome to come back to Laohu Town to visit them anytime!
From the moment Your Majesty promulgated the new policy and abolished the criminal slavery law, I sent people from the Ministry of Revenue to cancel your slave status. Mr. Gu and Heiya are all free now.
You haven't been back for a long time, so you may not know that Heiya has found a husband, and they will not get married until you, the young master, give your approval."
The Heiya who was always hungry has now become a fat girl like Yang Yuhuan under Qiao Xin's feeding. She has grown into a plump and lovable girl and has become a good daughter-in-law in the eyes of many mothers-in-law.
With the help of someone who cared about her, she and Aqiu actually fell in love with each other.
But Shi Jingmo never came back, and the girl was stubborn and refused to hold the banquet without Shi Jingmo's consent.
She said that Shi Jingmo was her little master and her adopted brother. How could she get married alone when her only relative was not around?
As a result, Aqiu, the chief steward, would ask about Shi Jingmo's news openly or secretly whenever he saw her!
What are all these things called?
Shi Jingmo never expected this to happen. He and Heiya used to be master and servant. After going through hardships together, they became siblings in Laohu Town.
If Heiya hadn't protected him all the way, he would never have lived to see the Qiao family buy them.
It is precisely because he knows that the Qiao family is reliable that he can place Heiya here without hesitation and do his own thing without hesitation!
Shi Jingmo didn't expect that the girl would be so stubborn.
"Sister Heiya, why are you doing this?"
Fortunately, Qiao Xin was magnanimous and did not care about it, otherwise, which master would tolerate a servant who always missed his old master?
Qiao Xin asked Shi Jingmo to stay temporarily in the guest house of the Qiao family and asked her two grandsons to entertain him.
We are all of the same generation, so we always have common topics to talk about. It's always more comfortable than accompanying an old woman like her!
As Emperor Wu's birthday approaches, more and more officials from other places return to Beijing. Officials who come to visit the Qiao Mansion are shoulder to shoulder, but many of them bring their children with them. The thick-skinned Qiao Xin slowly senses that something is wrong!
The frequency of seeing beauties of various styles in the past few days is too high. She can meet a few of them from time to time just by taking a walk in the mansion!
Qiao Xin subconsciously looked around at the grandchildren who had not yet found their marriages. What was there to not understand? Aren't they just coming to his house on their own initiative to be seen by his elders?
It’s just that the grandchildren are all like wooden stakes. They look stern and serious when they see the girl.
When people who have been to the battlefield become serious, the aura they exude is incomparable to that of the rich children who grew up in the harem.
Qiao Dalang, you sit like this with your sword and horse, expressionless, which girl would dare to approach you?
Seeing her son's behavior, Xu was so anxious that her mouth was covered with blisters. As a last resort, she had to find Qiao Xin.
"Mother, please try to persuade Dalang and his family. He's already in his twenties, but he doesn't care about his marriage at all. We introduced him to a girl, and he agreed to it, but after a few days, there was no response. I'm really worried!"
Qiao Xin had no choice. Since ancient times, children’s marriage has always been a headache for parents.
"You didn't ask them if they liked anything? We are not stubborn elders. Why don't you just bring it to us?"
Speaking of this Xu, she complained even more: "Da Lang despises all the girls in the capital because they are weak and frail, but he hasn't found any girl that he likes.
If he, the eldest brother, doesn't take the lead, then the third, fourth and fifth brothers will follow suit. What will a room full of bachelors do?"
Qiao Xin's scalp was about to explode, but she had to comfort her daughter-in-law: "Don't worry, maybe it's not destined yet. When they come back, we'll ask them directly, including the second child."
