Chapter 448: A Family
The middle-aged man thought for a few seconds before saying: "No matter what your background is, what your identity is, we all treat you as a member of the Qiao clan, you are my brother, we grew up together, do you need anything to prove such a relationship?" So I'm the first to stop you from being exterminated. I don't know what you thought at the beginning, your mother was angry, and the Qiao family was facing the crisis of separation, at that time, you held the financial power of the Qiao family in your hands, and your mother and several other people were eyeing each other, at that time, they would have family affection in addition to silver? People are paranoid, in the face of real interests, how can they have the reason to think about other things? So the decisions you made at that time were only because you were carried away by anger, and you didn't have the heart to think so much, let alone listen to our persuasion. So I thought, instead of me trying in vain, I'd better wait until you all calm down first, and then persuade you. It's just that before I can make time on my side, something happened to your Qiao family. ”
The middle-aged man sighed as he spoke, and said in an even more regretful tone: "The second room is now exiled, and I spent a lot of effort to find a relationship and find someone before I heard about them. It is said that the family has arrived in the homeless area, and although life is hard, as long as they work hard every day, at least they will not go hungry. I'll try to find a way to make a relationship with them, try to make them feel better, if I can, of course I hope they can come back, their family has just been exiled, and for a while, they can't act, and when the heat of this matter is over, I'll see if I can solve it with silver, you don't have to worry about this matter. Aunt Zhang is now following the third room, your sister-in-law just went to the third room to visit, it seems to be a little more mellow than when she first came back, after all, she is her own son, and she will not be harsh on her in terms of food and clothing. As for the four-bedroom...... To put it mildly, Sifang is like this now, and they are also to blame, your mother just spoils your fourth brother too much, so it will cause this result, fortunately, there is still a Qiao Jinwen in Sifang, and she can still support Sifang's industry. ”
The middle-aged man babbled so much, all of which was related to the Qiao family's rooms, and no matter how stupid a person was, he knew his purpose, but he said so much in this twist and turn, and he didn't get to the point, Qiao Xingbang was a little impatient in his heart.
Gu Jingshu handed him a cup of hot tea, and the corners of her curved eyes were full of teasing.
Qiao Xingbang looked back with a narrow look, took a sip of the teacup, and continued to listen to the middle-aged man's rambling.
"The Qiao family made a fortune from Shu brocade, and the Shu brocade business of the Qiao family is so big that it can be said to be the leader in Jincheng. In the industry, Qiaojia is the first in the industry, and I know that you are under a lot of pressure. The third sister can be regarded as growing up with you and the fourth child, she knows all the ways of business, and she has the secret recipe of your Qiao family in her hand, so we have nothing to worry about the business of the Qiao family's Shu brocade. We only hope that the Qiao family's business will not be cut off in your hands, this is not only the glory of your family, but also the glory of our family. A hundred-year-old family, a hundred-year-old family, it takes several generations of hard work to manage a family to soar, but the collapse of a family is a matter of moments, so the more at this time, the more you have to unite, and now the Qiao family is only left with your long house and three rooms. The third child has his own way and his own connections, although he has not done Shu brocade business, but his small business is doing well. Not to mention your long room, it is the best life among the Qiao family's rooms. Now the third sister also supports the four rooms by herself, although her status in the Hou Mansion is not high, but because she has the most profitable business of the Qiao family in her hands, I believe that life is better. Just Jojo ......"
Finally got to the point.
With a long tail note, the middle-aged man looked very embarrassed.
Gu Jingshu smiled slightly, "Third brother, although we are no longer from the Qiao clan, I still respectfully call you 'third brother'." No matter how bad Qiao Qiao is, she is also the daughter-in-law of the Changfang of the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, and the daughter-in-law of General Gu Mingmei, I think my daughter is better than a concubine. ”
"This is natural, it's just that when we entered Beijing a few days ago, we heard some bad rumors."
"The third brother also said rumors, since it is a rumor, how can it be a good word? It's just a false rumor, in order to slander Qiao Qiao, slander our Gu family, and then pose a threat to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion and the Dingguo Marquis Mansion. The third brother is a person who understands, and he can figure out the tricks of this, so he naturally won't fall for the bad guys. What's more, Qiao Qiao is also the niece of the third brother, everyone used to be a member of the same family, and the third brother should also defend Qiao Qiao. ”
The middle-aged man was embarrassed for a moment, he didn't expect Gu Jingshu to say such a thing, but the little woman beside him was the first to react, and took the initiative to speak: "Brother and sister are right, Qiaoqiao is our niece, and we naturally defend Qiaoqiao." It's just that the rumors outside are getting more and more intense, so don't you come out with a charter and solve this matter? As the younger siblings said, Qiao Qiao is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, and the granddaughter-in-law of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, her identity is sensitive, if she has a stain on her body and is criticized by outsiders, even if she is framed, it will have an impact on the two mansions. These are extraordinary times, and the quicker we act, the less we can do the harm to Jojo. This is what the big families care about the most, although it is a little inappropriate for me to say this sentence now, but everyone is a woman, Jing Shu, you also know that the sister-in-law's original intention is good, and it is to protect Qiao Qiao, presumably whether it is the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion or the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, this issue has been mentioned. Everyone doesn't say anything now because everyone is worried about Qiaoqiao's safety, but if we don't think of a solution in advance, we will be very passive at that time. We are all Qiaoqiao's family, and we all hope that she can come back safely this time and live the rest of her life well. I heard that General Gu has been looking for Qiaoqiao's whereabouts, so our focus should be on this matter, and if something really happens in the future, we will strive for the greatest interests for Qiaoqiao. ”
"So, what do you think?" Qiao Xingbang asked directly.
The words have come to this, and the people in the house have no previous embarrassment, "I know you love Qiao Qiao, when Qiao Qiao got married, you prepared a lot of dowry and dowry shops for her, I think at this time, you had better pinch the deed of the shop, as well as the dowry list in your hands, the Dingguo Marquis Mansion is dissatisfied with Qiao Qiao, what decision is made, these things are at least still in your hands." In case the time comes, on the one hand, the Hou Mansion dislikes Qiao Qiao, and on the other hand, he is reluctant to give up the shop in her hand, and on the grounds that she is not allowed to show her face, she confiscates those things, and the loss is not only the 'Wutong Pavilion', but also the Gu family. Think about it, not to mention the dowries you sent, they are the 'cloud clothes' and 'meal world' in Qiaoqiao's hands, which are all industries that make money every day! ”
"Brother and sister, I know that when these words come out, you feel uncomfortable, but we have to plan for a rainy day, don't we?"
"The third sister-in-law is right, I, as a mother, have not considered the third sister-in-law as thoroughly as an uncle. But as the third sister-in-law said, those are Qiaoqiao's dowry and dowry, and now Qiaoqiao's life and death are uncertain, and people don't know where, how can we, the mother's family, get those things back? Qiao Qiao is the daughter who got married, and now she is still the chief daughter-in-law of the Dingguo Marquis Mansion. ”
"This is also the reason why the third sister-in-law told you, we are a family, and when we are in trouble, we will naturally help. This time you are lucky, it happens that we are in the capital, if you trust us and find it convenient, you can temporarily hand over the property under Qiaoqiao's name to us, we are all acquaintances who know the roots. After Qiao Qiao came back safely, if there is no problem with the Dingguo Hou Mansion and the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, we will naturally return these things to Qiao Qiao, if they have any dissatisfaction with Qiao Qiao and make any decisions that are unfavorable to Qiao, we will not suffer a loss on our side, those are still Qiao Qiao's, and the Hou Mansion cannot take them. Qiao Qiao has silver by her side, and her life will not be too bad, and there is the third sister's side, we also want to discuss with Jinwen this time, although the splendid in her hand is the property of the Qiao family, but she is just a woman, she is the head of a wealthy family, and there are not many opportunities to show up, let alone an aunt? Her identity is limited there, and it is not hidden, before, Jinwen wrote a letter to ask for help from the clan, although Mrs. Hou and the second grandmother of the second room did not say it explicitly, but they hinted at her several times in words, and even mentioned this matter directly at the dinner not long ago, thanks to Qiao Qiao's strong support, the abacus of those people in the Hou Mansion did not start. But in the end, they were outnumbered. Although the third sister is a married daughter, she is also the daughter of the Qiao family, although the identity of our Qiao family is not as good as those powerful people, she will not let her clan be bullied by outsiders! Therefore, before we left, my father said that if the third sister wants to be attached to the clan, we clansmen are her backing! ”
No matter how high-sounding the words are, you can't hide your greed!
In addition to feeling funny, Gu Jingshu was also happy.
After all this time, the nature of the clan is still like this, and they still like to decorate their greed so beautifully, but fortunately they came out of the clan when they separated.
Although she is not afraid of trouble, she also does not like trouble.
"The third sister's affairs, only the third sister is in charge, after all, it is the matter of the third room, when we first separated, we had an agreement, so we can't help."
"Brother and sister, how can my sister-in-law make you embarrassed? Sister-in-law just hopes that when the time comes, you can say a fair word. ”
"This ...... I'm afraid it won't work. ”
"Why?" The little woman's face changed suddenly.
Gu Jingshu explained: "Third brother and third sister-in-law, you just arrived in the capital, and you only know that Qiao Qiao's life and death are uncertain, but you don't know that the third sister is one of the accomplices. ”
