Chapter 139: Secretly Observing
"Being a concubine, there are also good stories? I don't believe it—" Hashiwan pouted.
Qiao Wei comforted: "The second sister is very smart, maybe Zhou Yu's wife died early, you can..."
"Hehe, eldest sister, you really dare to think..." Qiao Wan shook her head and smiled bitterly.
Seeing Qiao Wan's resistance, Chen explained in a low voice: "Your eldest sister is right, Zhou Yu's family background is very good, she is both talented and beautiful, and now she is very much used by Sun Ce, Xiao Wan marries him without worrying about food and clothing, and you sisters can still take care of each other..."
"It depends on Long Yunqi's opinion, this matter has risen to the safety of Hefei, and your decision may not work..." Qiao Wan looked at the roof, not knowing what was going on in her mind.
After hearing this, Qiao Wei glanced at Qiao Wan curiously, and then asked tentatively: "The second sister talked endlessly just now, could it be that she already has a sweetheart?"
"Huh?"
Chen and Qiao Ling looked at Qiao Wan at the same time, Qiao Wan hurriedly withdrew her little hand under her chin, and her head shook like a rattle, although she had reached the age of the first love, she had seen too few men of the right age, and the only one who could see it was Long Xiang.
Chen deliberately pointed out Qiao Wei to Long Xiang, and Qiao Wei did not object at that time, she was as smart as Qiao Wan, she knew it, and silently buried her careful thoughts, so that the Qiao family did not notice.
It was at the critical moment that Qiao Wan's actions were a little out of shape.
Qiao Wan shook her head and didn't speak, and the suspicious Chen was about to ask, when she suddenly heard someone talking outside the window.
"Where's Madame?"
"It's like resting in the room."
"Which room does she live in?"
"The third room on the east side..."
Since the Qiao family moved into the military Sima Mansion, Long Xiang has not come to the back house once, and the question between him and the maid at this time surprised everyone in the room, and the intention of this visit is self-evident.
Seeing this, Qiao Ling was about to go out to greet him, but Chen hurriedly got up and stopped: "Stay in the room and don't go out, I'll talk to him about this matter."
After Chen finished speaking, he walked out with his sleeves up, and soon greeted Long Xiang under the porch outside the wing.
"Yunqi has never been in the future, and there must be something important to come to me today, right?"
"It's really important, I wonder if Madame has time?"
"Well, let's go to the pavilion in the garden and talk slowly?"
"It's fine."
When the footsteps of the two disappeared, Qiao Wan stabbed Qiao Ling's waist and said, "Third brother, you go over and listen."
"Mother won't let us," Qiao Ling looked embarrassed.
At this time, Qiao Wei also helped Qiao Wan: "Aren't you just careful?"
Qiao Ling shook her head: "I don't dare..."
Qiao Wei frowned and said angrily, "Oh, you're still not a man? It's inconvenient for us to follow us, otherwise we won't let you go to investigate, my second sister and I are going to marry to Jiangdong, how many things can the third brother do for us? Mother will not embarrass you..."
"Yes, I used to hurt you in vain..." Qiao Wan also came to mend the knife.
"This... Okay..."
Qiao Ling couldn't refuse, so he could only pluck up the courage to go out and tiptoe into the garden.
After about a stick of incense, Qiao Ling ran back like a gust of wind, and he picked up the water bowl on the table and poured it violently.
Qiao Wei reached for the kettle and eagerly inquired about the result.
"What did you hear?"
"Long Yunqi is really smart, he thought of a good way for the eldest sister, you don't have to worry about marrying Jiangdong..."
Qiao Ling kept stroking his chest with his hand to relieve the upsurge of qi and blood caused by the gallop.
"What do you mean?"
Qiao Wei was extremely excited after hearing this, and she didn't pay attention to pouring the water bowl full of Qiao Ling, until Qiao Wan knocked on the table to remind her.
Qiao Ling picked up the bowl of water and poured two more sips, until he hiccuped and put it down contentedly.
"Yuan Shu has an unmarried daughter in Hefei, and Long Yunqi wants to use his daughter as his sister, and I think Sun Ce will not refuse."
"Didn't the third brother go to the Prime Minister's Mansion? Do you know how the daughter of Yuan Shu looks?"
Qiao Wan asked from a different angle, and Qiao Ling replied sincerely: "I didn't see the reception too clearly that day
, it should be some color, but I haven't heard of others being surprised, so it's not as good as the two sisters."
Qiao Wan glanced at Qiao Wei, frowned and said, "Then the ending is unpredictable, if Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are just for entertainment, Yuan Shu's daughter is not beautiful enough, and she may not be able to catch the eye..."
"Hehe, second sister don't worry, the messenger received a gift, can he go back without good words? Long Yunqi also said that if our Qiao family is unwilling, he would rather use force with Sun Ce."
The second sister who could speak well was stunned, and a trace of pride flashed on Qiao Ling's face.
There are heroes who are willing to fight hard for themselves, which girl with spring can resist?
Qiao Wei, who was in a state of excitement, almost couldn't suppress her excitement, her hands on her waist, and her two index fingers were stuck together and swirling.
Suddenly, Qiao Wei saw Qiao Wan who was taking advantage of the situation, and remembered that this sister had not yet landed, so she asked Qiao Ling, "What else? What did your second sister say?"
Qiao Ling spread his hands and said, "When I kicked a rock, they found it, so I had to run back in advance..."
"Third brother, you too..."
Qiao Wei wanted to complain, but saw Qiao Ling looking around at the window, so she asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"
Qiao Ling replied embarrassedly: "I guess my mother is coming back soon, I think about whether to hide first, if you get angry, it will be troublesome to ask for family law..."
Qiao Wei didn't answer thoughtfully, but Qiao Wan shook her head and said, "We should also know the content of their conversation, the third brother should know it earlier, and Long Yunqi is so oriented towards us, do you have to worry about your mother's bad mood?"
"That's right—" Qiao Lingle nodded.
"Is Mother coming back soon? You continue to wait here, I suddenly remembered something..."Qiao Wei said and turned to walk outside the house.
Qiao Ling asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
"You don't care."
Qiao Wei replied very bluntly, which made Qiao Ling by the window confused, he scratched his head and asked Qiao Wan, "Second sister, what's wrong with the eldest sister?"
Qiao Wan frowned and shook her head gently, the moment Qiao Wei turned around just now, she found that the other party's cheeks were flushed, and she was not sure what she thought of in her heart.
After a while, Chen returned with a sad face.
Qiao Ling bowed his head and stood in place, taking the initiative to admit his mistake.
"Mother... I just—"
"Well, what about your eldest sister?"
Chen waved his hand slightly, and as Qiao Wan expected, he didn't want to care, Qiao Ling raised his head and replied, "The eldest sister has something to go out..."
"Where did you go?"
"The child doesn't know..."
"The eldest sister seems to have gone back to her room, and if my mother has something to say to her, I will go and find it for you."
Qiao Wan saw Chen's sad face just now, and guessed that her belonging was not as good as Qiao Wei, so she felt a little lost in her heart, and she was ready to go out after replying.
"Xiaowan, you stay first, mother has something to say."
Chen stopped Qiao Wan and instructed Qiao Ling: "Yunqi wants to discuss with the generals, you should come over and listen to it, and learn how he resolved the crisis."
"Oh."
Qiao Ling answered, glanced at Qiao Wan again, and then left Chen's bedroom, he shuttled through the corridor of the back house, and after a while, he saw the outermost shadow wall of the back house, and the front court was the vestibule after the moon gate.
At this time, Long Xiang happened to walk towards the shadow wall, and Qiao Ling wanted to shout to stop Long Xiang and accompany him.
Suddenly, a familiar figure popped out from behind the shadow wall, and walked straight in front of Long Xiang.
Eldest sister? I've never been near the Moon Gate before, but what are you going to do today?
With curiosity and suspicion, Qiao Ling immediately found a hidden object to observe secretly.
