Wandering around the city but encountering such a bad thing, Qiao Ran also stopped shopping again, only went to the cloth village to buy some cloth, ready-to-wear, and prepared some food and groceries and called a carriage to return to Xuanzhenguan.

Back to Xuanzhen Temple, Xuan Xiang stood at the door and was looking around, and when he saw them coming back, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and ran over with an umbrella: "The two donors are back, but Xuan Xiang is worried to death!" ”

She was young, but her forced appearance of being old made Qiao Ran feel better, grabbed a handful of snacks for Xuan Xiang, and took her things back to her small courtyard.

Early the next morning, Qiao Ran was being pulled by red beans to try on the newly bought ready-to-wear clothes when she heard the voice of Xuanxiang outside the hospital.

"Master Joe, Lord Joe, someone has come to see you!"

Qiao Ran's hand in tidying up her clothes couldn't help but pause: her aunt's family is in prison, who else will come to see her at this time?

A simple voice with joy also sounded outside the courtyard at this time.

"Cousin, cousin......"

Cousin? Qiao Ran raised her head and met Hongdou's face as blank as hers.

When I walked outside the courtyard, I saw a young man in a dark blue robe looking at her happily, and when I saw her, I couldn't help but come over, and when I got closer, I seemed to be a little timid.

Qiao Ran saw that he was nervously wiping his hands with the hem of his clothes, and raised his hand stiffly to give a salute: "Cousin, I saw you in the city yesterday, but I didn't have time to stop you......"

"You are?" Qiao Ran looked at the young man in front of him with a square eyebrow and an honest face, and spoke suspiciously.

Joe ...... Qiao Mo. The young man stumbled, "I'...... My father is your mother's brother. ”

"Master Qiao?" Qiao Ran was stunned, and then looked at the young man's nervous and flushed face, and was a little surprised. can achieve the position of the richest man in Jinling, even if he has never seen Master Qiao, he will not be like the cousin in front of him.

"Cousin!" Qiao Ran nodded at him, cold and detached.

Qiao Mo didn't care, he only grinned, he scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and reached out a little crampedly as if he wanted to touch her head, but he still took it back, and only stood in place and smiled dryly at her.

Not only does he look a little silly, Qiao Ran was a little surprised, but it didn't stop there.

"Master Qiao doesn't seem to like me very much, cousin should not see me, so as not to disturb you." After all, she is a person, Master Qiao seems to be convinced, and he has not seen her once in these years, so he can see his attitude towards her.

"I didn't ...... It's okay, I like my cousin's. Qiao Mo stammered after saying this, seeing Qiao Ran frowning slightly, he hurriedly explained, "No, it's not that kind of like, I ...... I ......"

"I understand." Qiao Ran nodded at him, "Is there anything wrong with my cousin coming to me?" ”

Qiao Mo was reminded by her that he remembered the purpose of his visit, and hurriedly took out a heavy purse from his sleeve and handed it over: "Look...... Look at my cousin, how is my cousin doing here? ”

"Good." Qiao Ran glanced at the heavy purse and didn't take it, "Cousin's kindness, Qiao Ran has it, let's take this back, so as not to make Master Qiao unhappy when he knows." ”

"Out of the way, it's my own." Qiao Mo spoke coherently, "My cousin is out alone, and she always asks for money." ”

Even the red bean on the side couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: if it continued like this, she would think that this cousin was a natural stammer.

Qiao Ran stared at him for a moment, and when she met the young man's expectant expression, she seemed to think for a moment, and finally reached out to take it.

"So...... Thank you cousin. ”

"No...... No, it should. Qiao Mole grabbed his hair and smiled, "If my cousin has anything to do, tell me, I am my cousin, and I should take care of my cousin." ”

As soon as these words came out, Qiao Ran pondered.

"You ......" Qiao Ran looked at him for a moment, then hesitated to speak, "I heard that Master Qiao has two sons, the eldest nineteen and the younger thirteen, my cousin should be very busy on weekdays!" ”

The Qiao family has a lot of industries, but any of its big stewards are all busy people, not to mention the eldest son, and now looking at this Qiao Mo's reaction, it really doesn't look like the Qiao family's son.

As soon as these words came out, the honest smile on Qiao Mo's face was stagnant, and after a while, he touched his head awkwardly and said, "I...... I'm stupid and not good-looking, second brother...... The second brother is smart and good-looking, and the second brother will ...... in the future The second brother is in charge. ”

Qiao Ran fell silent again when she heard this: people's hearts are biased, and it is difficult for parents who are self-respecting and fair to achieve a bowl of water completely flat, let alone parents who are already biased? She knows this herself.

Qiao Mo's words made her heart soften a little. However, she herself has nothing to comfort him at the moment, let alone something to promise, and if she can't make empty promises, it's better not to promise. Thinking of this, Qiao Ran could only nod at him, and then spoke: "I really want my cousin to help with something." ”

Qiao Mo suddenly became excited, patted his chest vigorously and assured her, "You...... You say, I ...... I'll be able to do it for my cousin. ”

Qiao Ran nodded and looked up at him: "Does my cousin know what happened to my aunt's family?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Qiao Mo fell silent again, and after a while, he said: "Dad originally didn't allow me to take care of my aunt's affairs, so I didn't know about it before, but when I went down the mountain, I looked for someone to inquire." ”

Qiao Ran snorted and felt strange: "Aunt has offended Master Qiao?" Why doesn't Uncle Qiao care about his aunt's business? ”

Qiao Mo looked up at her in a panic, as if he wanted to say something, but he moved his lips, and he didn't say anything after all.

"Is it for me?" When Qiao Ran saw his expression, she quickly guessed the reason.

Qiao Mo hurriedly said: "Cousin, don't think about it, it's not my cousin's fault......"

"I know." Qiao Ran nodded again, didn't dwell on the reason anymore, and only said to him, "Auntie's matter is troublesome to you." ”

"Don't bother, my aunt is also my aunt." Qiao Mo's honest face was a little more serious, "Cousin, don't worry, just leave this matter to me." ”

"Okay." Qiao Ran should go down.

After the words fell, there was a silence, it seemed that there was really nothing to say, after all, Qiao Mo was not familiar with them, Qiao Ran thought about it, and raised his hand to beckon him into the house: "Cousin, do you want to come in and have a cup of tea before leaving?" ”

"Nope." Qiao Mo touched his head again, he seemed to reach out and touch his head as soon as he was nervous, he said, "I'll go back and inquire, and when I hear it, I'll tell my cousin!" ”

Qiao Ran nodded and wanted to send him, but was stopped by Qiao Mo, and he left under the leadership of Xuanxiang.

"My cousin looks so stupid!" Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Hongdou couldn't help muttering, "But the person looks fine." ”

"You have a good eye." Qiao Ran joked, and was about to enter the house with red beans, when he suddenly heard a noise coming from far and near.

Before the two of them could react, they saw several people coming here.

Qiao Mo, who left with Xuanxiang, was tugging at a person's collar as if he wanted to pull the person away, the person who was pulled was not as tall as Qiao Mo, but his manpower was not small, no matter how Qiao Mo dragged him, he still came here.

In a few moments, the group was already in front of them.

Qiao Ran also saw clearly the person who was dragged by Qiao Mo: it was the young man who lifted her fence in Jinling City yesterday.
