It's time to go to Chang'an! No matter how much you inquire about the news, it is better than going to Chang'an in person.

This is a good thing, Qiao Ran thought about it and asked him, "When will my cousin leave?" ”

Qiao Mo said: "Half a month later, ......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw the owner of the calligraphy and painting workshop, Qiao Mo's uncle, hurriedly running in, looking panicked: "It's amazing, my brother-in-law has come here!" ”

Master Qiao is here? Qiao Ran was startled, and before she could react, she saw Qiao Mo's uncle hurriedly walk to the wall of the inner room, take down a painting from the wall, and reveal the small door open on the wall.

Although the door is small, it is enough for Qiao Ran and Hongdou to pass through.

"You get out of the backyard." The boss said.

After a period of scramble, Qiao Ran and Hongdou were already standing at the back door of the studio and looking at each other.

"It's good that I didn't let my cousin talk nonsense!" Hongdou, who came back to his senses, said indignantly, "Is this Master Qiao a dog?" We had just arrived, and he came for us! ”

"It's been a tip-off!" Compared with Hongdou's indignation, Qiao Ran's expression was indifferent, "After all, it is Master Qiao who is in charge of the Qiao family, and it is difficult for his cousin to escape his ears and eyes if he wants to do something." ”

Hongdou couldn't help but snort lightly when he heard this, and said: "What else do people say that Master Qiao's business is big and busy, and it seems to be a lie at the moment, we just arrived, and we smelled the smell and came over, I really see him idle!" ”

Qiao Ran smiled, looked around, and saw that it was a closed alley, the surroundings were empty, one side was a dead end, and the other side was the courtyard wall of someone else's mansion, and there were no windows or doors on the courtyard wall, so for a while, except for her and Hongdou, there was not even a figure around.

Hongdou complained a few words about Master Qiao's "idle panic" behavior, pulled Qiao Ran's sleeve, and said, "Miss, let's go?" ”

Qiao Ran's eyes were a little frozen: "Let's go?" ”

Hongdou snorted, and said disapprerovitically: "Anyway, Master Qiao is here, and it seems that today's cousin can't say anything else to Miss Tong, let's go!" ”

"Good...... Walk. Qiao Ran nodded slightly, and Hongdou stepped out of the alley, and turned two corners to reach the avenue, seeing the surrounding people, Hongdou breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed: "It's still a lot of people, this back door is also built in a secluded place, in case of a thief, it is really crying and there is nowhere to cry if you slip through the back door!" ”

As soon as I looked up, the main entrance of the painting workshop was not far from this street, and it was surrounded by the crowd at this time, and through the crowd I could vaguely see a well-decorated carriage parked in front of the door, and two tall horses sneezed in the crowd, which was quite a bit of a miracle horse.

There is no one else who is so "particular about money" except for the richest man in Jinling.

Qiao Ran paused: "Let's go and see it too." With that, he followed the crowd towards the workshop.

Hongdou was surprised: "Miss, don't you go back?" What are you still doing here? ”

"Go and see what Master Qiao looks like." Qiao Ran replied casually.

Hongdou immediately nodded again and again, and there was a bit of gnashing of teeth in his voice: "It's okay, look at what this dog Master Qiao looks like, it must not look good if he doesn't recognize his six relatives." ”

Qiao Ran didn't respond, just squeezed into the crowd, Hongdou saw this, hurriedly came over to help, and it took a lot of effort to push her forward, although she was not in the front, but she could clearly see the fenced carriage.

The coachman placed a golden stool beside the carriage, and from Qiao Ran's angle, he saw only one boot stepping on the golden stool, a silk upper, and a huge pearl on it.

Is it true that a shoe looks like this, and the whole body is still good?

Most of the people watching the excitement were ordinary people, and there was a little more sour in the discussion at this time.

"This Qiao family is really rich!"

"Isn't it! This Boss Qiao is a good hand at doing business, and the business has become bigger and bigger over the years, and it is better than when Boss Qiao was there! ”

"No matter how big the business is, there is no chance to go to relatives during the New Year's holidays, what's the use? The only remaining Mrs. Fang had an accident again...... Having said that, what happened to Mrs. Fang, why is no one in the city mentioning it? ”

"I don't know, the Fang family is very tight-lipped, just don't say it!"

"Hey, have you forgotten that in addition to Mrs. Fang, this Boss Qiao also has a relative?" And the people answered.

The people who were chatting happily were surprised: "How can there be any relatives...... Hey, aren't you talking about the one who lives outside the city? ”

"That's right! For this niece, Boss Qiao is very ruthless, he doesn't care, the child who was only a few years old back then, just threw people out, and he really got it! ”

"When the business is so big, the heart is naturally ruthless!" Someone scoffed.

……

Hongdou who listened to such a discussion was comfortable, nodded again and again, and couldn't help but say to Qiao Ran: "I see that everyone still understands it!" ”

"Let's just talk about it, right now, it's just that everyone is a little indignant about the Qiao family's extravagant behavior." Qiao Ran didn't care, and the hatred of the rich is also understandable, especially when this rich man is so high-profile, which naturally makes people dissatisfied.

The pair of pearl-encrusted boots stepped on the ground, and then turned around, and Master Qiao appeared in view.

Qiao Ran is no stranger to such a look, Qiao Mo is seven points similar to him: square eyebrows but not good-looking.

"It's really born from the heart." Hongdou pointed at Master Qiao and complained to Qiao Ran, "Look at his face, you know that he is not a good person." "I don't know if I've been in Xuanzhen Temple for a long time, and the red beans have learned to say physiognomy.

"Knowing people and knowing faces but not hearts, my cousin is very similar to him." Of course, Qiao Ran would not be stupid enough to judge people by their appearance.

Hongdou snorted and closed his mouth for the time being: As Miss's personal maid, no matter when, Miss is right.

Master Qiao got out of the carriage and then turned around and reached out to help the people who got out of the carriage.

But in the blink of an eye, two people who got off the carriage appeared in view, a woman and a young man.

The woman's appearance is extremely beautiful, although because of her age, there are a few more fine lines at the corners of her eyes, but it has not damaged much of her beauty, and her posture is even more enchanting to the point of thrilling, Qiao Ran looked at her carefully, and couldn't help but sigh with some emotion: This should be Mrs. Qiao, everyone in Jinling City knows that Master Qiao loves his wife like his life, and even loves the house and Wu, and he is also very fond of his youngest son who is very similar to his wife's appearance.

The young man who looked similar to the woman was the little son of the Qiao family. It's a pity that although Qiao Mo is the boss, he is not at all similar to his beautiful mother, and he looks very much like Master Qiao, so he is also very unfavored. Qiao Ran thought maliciously: I don't know how much this Master Qiao dislikes his appearance and dislikes his cousin so much.

Seeing Master Qiao supporting Mrs. Qiao with one hand and holding his youngest son's hand with the other, it is really a harmonious and beautiful family.

Qiao Mo's uncle walked out of the painting workshop at this time, raised his hand to Master Qiao, and called "brother-in-law".

Master Qiao's face was a little pale, but before he could speak, the little son of the Qiao family quickly broke free of his hand and threw himself into Uncle Qiao Mo's arms, and shouted happily: "Uncle!" ”

"It's really a deep uncle and nephew!" Hongdou looked angrily at Uncle Qiao Mo, who was hugging the little son of the Qiao family with his backhand, thinking that they had just been driven out with a disgraced face, he couldn't help but snort, "I don't know, I thought it was father and son!" ”

Qiao Ran coughed lightly and glanced at the red bean: This can't be nonsense!
