"What's going on?"

Although the affection for this family is limited, I still have to ask in the end.

Zhen Xin is a big grinning character, but at this time, he twisted it and hesitated: "The villain doesn't know much, I only heard my father-in-law say that it was the people of the Qiao family who used the topic to make trouble." ”

Lanterns hung from the four corners of the carriage, emitting a bright light, slipped through the crack in the curtain that Wu Zhi's finger raised.

Wu Zhi turned his head to look at Zheng Lingyi, Zheng Lingyi's eyebrows and eyes were blurred by the darkness, but his lips were clearly smeared by the light.

The Qiao family is justified in coming today, and General Wu can't turn them away.

Now that he is here, he naturally wants to be upset for Qiao's family, but I don't know, what benefits are he actually planning to seek for himself by holding grievances for Qiao's family?

Zheng Lingyi sighed briefly and said, "The Qiao family is in-laws, so I won't ask them to go to the guest house." Are we going to hide all night? The father-in-law probably thinks that he can handle it, but he is a big man, and he may not be able to get a cheap mouthful, so can he still ask Zhao Huyuan to arrest Qiao's family when he is in a hurry? ”

"I can't." Zhen Xin said outside, and without waiting for Wu Zhi's gaze to turn around, he hurriedly lowered his head.

"Do you know who they are?" Zheng Lingyi said to Zhen Xin.

Zhen Xin said: "The trouble is here, Mrs. Qiao is here in person, and Mrs. Qiao." ”

I don't know what benefits Qiao has promised, but the grandmother and aunt on the head of Wu Punishment are here.

"It's a long life." Wu Punishment's words were very rebellious, but fortunately, his voice was not high, only Zheng Lingyi heard it clearly.

Since Qiao Guanying was injured in the Wu family, although it was not caused by Qiao's family, the Qiao family inevitably had some resentment towards him.

Old Mrs. Qiao is Qiao Guanying's biological mother, and Little Mrs. Qiao is Qiao Guanying's wife, and the hatred of these two people for Wu Zhi can be described as a raging sea, and it is no wonder that Old General Wu wants to let the two of them avoid it.

"Why don't I take you to the inn for the night?"

Wu Punishment was not afraid of the Qiao family, he was not afraid of that situation back then, and he would not be afraid now.

It's just that I'm afraid of hurting the jade bottle.

"After hiding from this, I thought I was afraid of them. Let's go, it's a disaster that can't be avoided. Zheng Lingyi shook his head and said.

And I don't know if these people have made trouble in the quiet house, but Lu Nong is guarding in the quiet house, which makes Zheng Lingyi feel a little relieved.

When Zhen Xin heard this, he said: "The villain will go back first and deliver a message to the old general." ”

Wu Zhi nodded and said to Wang Dou, "Go home." ”

The two of them went back to the house as if they were all right, and there was a maid who was guarding the door, and when he saw the two of them, he rushed up to the old general and said that the old general wanted the two of them to go to the South Garden.

"Who are you?" Zheng Lingyi asked knowingly.

The maid was a little old, she glanced at Wu Punishment, her eyes were full of resentment, obviously knowing what happened back then.

"Nu Nai Qiao is the one who serves by the old lady's side."

"It was originally a descendant of the Qiao family, so how could I spread the words of the old general? Or is this really what the old general said? ”

One of the couple looked soft and easy to talk, and the other had a cold face, and everyone would subconsciously choose Zheng Lingyi to deal with it, but they were stung coldly.

The maid looked at Zheng Lingyi and smiled a little proudly: "What is the young lady doing with so many questions?" The old general or the old lady, one is your father-in-law and the other is your grandmother, don't you still want to move? ”

"Reasonable." Zheng Lingyi also smiled, didn't see half a bit of sadness, and said, "Lead the way." ”

The couple followed behind and walked unhurriedly, as if they were in a garden.

Green Bead was a little nervous, but he tried not to show it. She suddenly noticed a person behind her, and when she turned her head, she saw that it was Lunong.

"I'll accompany Madame, you go back to guard the yard." Lu Nong dragged the green bead behind him and said quickly.

The feeling of being pampered and protected is really hot, but it also makes her more and more useless.

Old General Wu rested early and got up early, he should have gone to bed at this hour on weekdays, but now he was dragged by Qiao's family and couldn't rest, Zheng Lingyi saw that his eyes were sleepy and red, and he couldn't stop coughing.

I don't know if the old lady of the Qiao family secretly drank ginseng soup and took ginseng slices, and she was still so energetic in the middle of the night.

Qiao's is not here, only Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao.

After saluting General Wu, Wu Zhi stood still, and Zheng Lingyi had no choice but to follow him.

Old General Wu glanced at them, but he didn't speak.

"Yes, yes. has been a heartless thing since he was a child, and now that he has an official body, he doesn't take others seriously. Old Madam Qiao pointed at Wu and scolded.

Wu Zhi glanced at Old Madam Qiao, and didn't bother to speak at all.

Zheng Lingyi was more interested in that little lady Qiao, she was Qiao Guanying's wife, and it stands to reason that she should hate Wu Zhi even more, but Zheng Lingyi didn't see any hatred from her, some were just tired and helpless.

Sensing Zheng Lingyi's gaze, Little Madam Qiao was a little overwhelmed and dodged her gaze.

"It's the end of the hour now, what the old lady wants to say, what she wants to do, wait until tomorrow."

Zheng Lingyi retracted his gaze that fell on Mrs. Qiao and said to Mrs. Qiao.

"Tomorrow and tomorrow, how long do you want to keep my daughter in lock!?" Old Madam Qiao reprimanded.

"He Zengguan mother-in-law, didn't you go to Lingxi Courtyard to see your eldest grandson before?"

This matter is still hot, no one can deny it, Old Madam Qiao is also a powerful person, when he said: "Isn't it also the grace of your Third Mrs. Wu to go and see your grandson?" ”

"The old lady has tormented me." Zheng Lingyi was blessed and said: "My mother-in-law was at fault first, but she also gave enough face and was punished behind closed doors." When a grandson is born, it is human nature for the mother-in-law to take a look. Both of these things are in their own hands, and both make sense, and I don't think there's anything to blame. ”

"What's wrong with my daughter! Is it wrong to tell the truth? You've got a good wife who smells like you! Old Madam Qiao pointed at Zheng Lingyi and said to Wu.

Hearing this, Wu Zhi actually looked at Zheng Lingyi and smiled slightly.

Zheng Lingyi caught a glimpse of Mrs. Qiao's cheekiness and froze at Wu Punishment's cheekiness, and she was also helpless.

"It's not wrong to tell the truth, but my mother-in-law has been married to the Wu family for many years, and she has no talent to manage things, but she has to control the power of the director, the Wu family's property is getting thinner and thinner in her hands, she can't earn money herself, and it also harms the future of the Wu family's children. No matter what the past is, the Wu family is not separated at the moment, and the future of the Wu family is still tied to my husband. She was so short-sighted, secretly fueling the troubles, causing my husband to lose the errand of the Hanlin Academy, and her father-in-law was extremely magnanimous for the sake of her giving birth to children. ”

Zheng Lingyi's words of the old general Wu just wanted to nod, but in the end, he was hindered by giving the old mother-in-law a few thin noodles, so he endured it.

Old Madam Qiao herself is also in charge of a huge Qiao family, how could she not know that Zheng Lingyi's words are on the right track, but the old hatred is hard to dissipate, and now she can only bite to death and reprimand: "It's really a raccoon dog, good, it's really good." I don't believe it, today you just have to kill me alive here, anyway, General Wu's hands and eyes are all over the sky, and everything is easy to cover! ”

Old Madam Qiao is doing her best today, and she is bound to win a game for Qiao's family.

"What do you want?" Wu Zhi asked lightly.

Old Madam Qiao's emotions were on top, and she was stunned when Wu Punishment asked like this.

Wu Zhi asked again, "What did your daughter promise you again?" Now is not as good as in the past, and she is just talking about some big things, and she has to say two things if she can't do it. ”

"Shaft! Dare to talk nonsense......

Old Madam Qiao scolded halfway through and was interrupted by Wu Zhi calmly, "Let's talk about it, maybe I'm willing to buy a piece of tranquility?" ”

Old Madam Qiao held her breath, she didn't spit out, she didn't swallow it.

"There are some things that can never be talked about the passage of time, but you can't always fight and lose."

When Zheng Lingyi said this, he looked at Wu Punishment.

General Wu lowered his head, hiding his emotions, and the past was unbearable.

is old, and acting in this scene is also tiring, if you don't ask for anything, it's really unbelievable.

This noodle unconsciously became two walnuts, and he was allowed to play with it in the palm of Wu Punishment's palm.

Little Madam Qiao glanced at Old Madam Qiao with some expectation.

The two made eye contact a few times, and finally Old Madam Qiao turned her head away, while Little Madam Qiao got up and walked up to Zheng Lingyi and said softly: "Zhixian, he owes a debt in the casino, a full fifty thousand taels." ”

Zheng Lingyi was startled when he heard the price, and subconsciously leaned towards Wu Xuan.

When Mrs. Qiao saw her behavior, she unconsciously showed a little envy.

Wu Zhi looked at General Wu, and said to Mrs. Qiao: "Is it to borrow money or money?" ”

Little Madam Qiao was embarrassed to hear it, and she couldn't make the decision, so she only turned to look at Old Madam Qiao.

Old Madam Qiao lost the support of her anger, and her whole person collapsed like a bottle of mud Buddha soaked in water.

"Ahem, how can it be, ahem."

Old General Wu coughed and said, Zheng Lingyi looked distressed, and hurriedly went to pour tea and hand him tea.

Wu Punishment recalled the gamblers in those dark alleys who were wrapped in a rotten mat and secretly survived, and he was not very surprised by this incident.

Qiao Zhixian never left the dice when he was young, if it weren't for the Qiao family behind him, he would have fallen to this point a long time ago.

"It's a deception. The third brother lost his eyes, so he didn't care about it. ”

Little Madam Qiao first argued for Qiao Zhixian, and then lowered her voice.

"Which casino? Don't you Qiao family have any way? Wu punished.

Although the Qiao family is not enough to see in the capital, it can be regarded as a family in its own territory.

"If it is in the realm of the Qiao family, where will it be so tricky? It is the Hengtong gambling house in the capital! Zhixian was coaxed by a friend half a month ago! Now people are still being seized by the gambling house! ”

Old Madam Qiao couldn't stand the sarcasm in Wu's words, so she leaned heavily on her crutches and said.

Wu Zhi's eyes rolled for a moment, but he didn't say anything.

"I haven't heard of it. This dynasty has very strict control over gambling, and there are only a few gambling houses in the capital, and they are all controlled by someone behind them. And you said that you haven't seen Zhixian, didn't you ask someone to kidnap the ticket and coax you not to report to the official, so you pulled out a reason? ”

General Wu said a few words, but he was a little close to the truth.
