Chapter 25: A Brief Farce
Qiao Ru muttered in peace of mind: This woman's brain is estimated to be full of water. At this time, grandpa was still in the hall, and this family would not be able to call the shots of her son's concubine anyway.
Just as Qiao Ru was muttering in peace, the others seemed to have made an appointment, and with the arrival of Aunt Chen, many people came to the hall one after another. In the blink of an eye, many people had gathered in the hall, and all the people who should have come had come.
Qiao Ruan looked at these familiar faces and sneered, all of them very fast.
A few subordinates who had just heard Aunt Chen's order came from the door and were about to arrest Qiao Ru'an without saying a word.
Qiao Hong looked at this scene, grabbed a teacup in anger and threw it straight at Aunt Chen. He shouted, "I see who dares!"
Aunt Chen felt the coercion of the head of the family, and suddenly fell to her knees in fright and instinctively frightened, and shouted in anticipation: "The head of the family." ”
Qiao Hong was so angry that he gasped, coughed a few times in anger, and scolded in a trembling voice: "Get out!"
In the hall, people with poor spiritual power felt that it was difficult to breathe, and they forced themselves to stand still under the pressure of the spiritual power of the head of the house.
Qiao Jiaqing frowned, glared at Qiao Ru'an vaguely, knelt down with a puff, and pleaded softly to Qiao Hong: "Grandpa, my mother is also a businessman......"
Before Qiao Jiaqing finished speaking, Qiao Hong immediately snorted coldly: "Grandpa is also what you can call? She also deserves you to call her mother-in-law? If you don't know the rules of the Qiao family, don't have the surname Qiao!" Qiao Hong thought that these people had driven An'er away for three years, and his face was gloomy and terrifying.
Everyone was shocked when they heard Qiao Hong's words. Everyone lowered their heads, and no one dared to snort again.
In the hall, there was silence.
The Qiao family is different, the family is strict, and the family rules are clear. There is a difference between a concubine and a concubine, both of whom are grandchildren, but only the bloodline can be called the grandfather of the family, and the concubine can only be called the head of the family forever. There is a difference between the concubines, even if Aunt Chen is her biological mother and is in charge of the affairs of the family, she needs to call Miss Young Master in front of her children, and the children can only call her aunt. And their mother and daughter, in front of Qiao Ru'an, one is a subordinate, and the other is a shorter sister, and when they see her, they all have to call Qiao Ru'an a third miss. Their origins are always destined to be dwarf and inferior.
Qiao Jiaqing trembled and knelt on the ground, the hatred in his heart was so strong that he choked. She endured the hatred in her heart, and slowly begged for mercy in an aggrieved voice: "The head of the family, my aunt is also impartial. ”
Qiao Hong snorted coldly: "Hmph! What an impartial officer! I never knew that a concubine of our Qiao family could casually ask someone to arrest the concubine of the family!"
Aunt Chen raised her head unwillingly, and tried her best to argue: "The head of the family, the third lady has violated the family rules by fornicating with others and becoming pregnant before marriage. The family rules stipulate that the Qiao family does not distinguish between concubines and masters, and whoever makes a mistake is treated equally!"
Aunt Chen knelt on the ground unwillingly, and the afterglow in her eyes shot unwillingly towards Qiao Ru'an like a quenched needle.
Why?!
Her Qing'er is the cultivation genius of the Qiao family, and she is also the number one cultivation genius in the Southern Qing Kingdom, and she is already a Qingxuan Spirit Master in her early teens. Today's holy decree has been issued, Qing'er is about to become the crown princess, and she will be the queen in the near future. Why did this waste come back, Qing'er's light was completely covered up and ignored by the head of the family, and the people of the whole house had to revolve around this waste material that could not cultivate the spirit and was still full of notoriety in the city!
Aunt Chen glared at Qiao Ru'an's face that was captivating to the city and the country viciously, and she couldn't wait to go up and tear her up and destroy her! A person who couldn't cultivate the spirit, had a bewitching face and gave birth to wild seeds, why did she ride on their heads! She was as cheap as her dead mother, her mother died and bewitched the head of the family to not let the prime minister continue the string and not let the prime minister straighten up, and now this waste is infamous by tens of thousands of people to bring back wild seeds, and can still confuse the head of the family to protect them......
Qiao Hong looked at Aunt Chen, who was kneeling on the ground unwillingly, and saw her vicious gaze and didn't fight again: "What kind of person treats everyone equally! What mistake did my An'er make?! I don't know your indiscriminate methods?! What qualifications does a subordinate have to deal with my Qiao family's daughter-in-law......" The more Qiao Hong spoke, the more angry he became, and his body, which had already suffered backlash due to the failure of the breakthrough, couldn't help but shake in anger.
Qiao Ye nestled on Qiao Hong's lap, looked at the grandfather who was excited to defend his mother, and patted his grandfather's chest with concern with two tears in his eyes: "Grandpa, don't be angry." Bad people will laugh at us. As he spoke, he took out a Guiyuan Dan and handed it to Qiao Hong's mouth, and said with concern: "Grandpa, this is Guiyuan Dan." It's comfortable to eat. ”
The soft little hand touched his lips, and Qiao Hong's anger was suppressed a lot. He sighed, opened his mouth and swallowed the elixir that Xiao Yeye handed to his mouth.
Qiao Hong swallowed the elixir, only to feel that his body was instantly warm, and the spiritual power that had been swayed by the anger just now was also appeased, and slowly returned to the dantian. He sighed lowly, hey, I don't know how long he can protect An'er and Xiao Yeye after today. His body was getting worse and worse from the backlash.
Qiao Hong waved his hand weakly: "Get back for me!"
After a while, the hall that was originally crowded with people instantly left only Qiao Ru'an and three people.
Qiao Hong hugged Qiao Ye's little body and sighed helplessly: "An'er, I have wronged you." ”
Qiao Ru'an obediently walked to the position next to Qiao Hong, and said softly: "Grandpa, don't be wronged." ”
She blinked her smart eyes and said with a smile: "Grandpa, Xiao Yeye and I have had a good time outside in the past few years, and we have made a lot of friends. Her eyes were full of happiness and confidence, and she was not affected by the farce just now.
Qiao Hong looked at his granddaughter in surprise, only to see that she seemed to be a completely different person at this time, with a confidence that she had never had before.
In the past, An'er was very kind and cowardly and gentle. She followed herself to learn martial arts to strengthen her body, but she never used martial arts to harm those who could not cultivate her spirit. In the face of her brothers and sisters who are cultivating spirits, she always has low self-esteem, and she always bears the bad in the face of everyone's ridicule and fetters. Now, that inferiority complex seems to have dissipated without a trace, replaced by full confidence and happiness.
Qiao Ye stuck the pastry with one hand, and vaguely echoed while eating: "Grandpa, what my mother said is true." We know a lot of people, and we went to Uncle Long's for dinner just now and came back. The food in Uncle Long's restaurant was delicious, and we had a full table. ”
Qiao Hong asked in surprise, "Uncle Long?"
"Uh-huh, yes. It was Uncle Long's carriage that sent us back just now. We went into town at noon. ”
"It's noon?" Qiao Hong looked at the sky outside, it was Shen Shi now, and it wouldn't be long before dinner could be served.
Seeing Qiao Hong looking at the sky, Qiao Ye was shocked to say the wrong thing. His eyes rolled, and he hurriedly pointed to his mother and said, "When we first entered the city, my mother said that she was hungry, and Uncle Long's restaurant was nearby just now. Grandpa, we didn't come back late on purpose. ”
