The birthday party of the old lady of the Qiao family was set at the mansion of the second uncle of the Qiao family.

Today's Ye Mian is wearing a simple and generous ancient cheongsam, with long hair pulled up, and the scars on his face are almost indistinguishable after using concealer. The makeup is light and moisturizing.

She held Qiao Zhanbei's arm intimately, and the little couple appeared in the field of vision of their relatives affectionately.

When Grandma Qiao saw them, her eyes were soaked, soaked in a smile, and she said in her heart, the relationship between the two young couples seems to have really improved, unlike before, it looks affectionate, but in fact, it can be seen that it is a play for her, an old woman.

She smiled and watched the little couple kneel on the futon and kowtow to her to celebrate her birthday.

After Ye Mian got up, the old lady stretched out her hand to her, and she stepped forward to hold her grandmother's wrinkled hand.

"We slept more and more dignified and gentle, together with Zhanbei Station, we are really a pair of beautiful people, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off, what a good pair!"

Old Lady Qiao said with joy.

"Yes, Mianmian is not only beautiful and beautiful, but also very talented. Among the children of our Qiao family, no one can compare to her, except for Zhanbei, of course. Qiao Zhanbei's second aunt also echoed the admiration.

Hearing this, Qiao Zhanbei's aunt Qiao Jinlan was very unhappy, she had been haunted by Ye Mian's dismissal because her son had worked in Qiao's before.

Knowing that the old lady was eccentric to Ye Mian, she didn't dare to say anything.

After Qiao Zhanbei kowtowed to his grandmother, he went to the second floor, worshiped his grandfather, and went to the tearoom to visit his second uncle Qiao Jinhuai.

Three years ago, after Qiao Jinhuai was unjustly investigated, in less than half a year, he was wronged and reinstated, and he was just promoted again this year, and now, he is in a high position.

The uncle and nephew drank tea in the tea room and chatted about current affairs, and they usually had their own daily affairs and rarely had the opportunity to meet.

"Zhanbei, Qingzhou New City is the first project I have developed since I took office, and I can only rest assured that I will be relieved if I hand it over to you, and you must help me do it well. The impact of this project on me and on Qiao's family, I don't need to say more, you know it. ”

"Uncle, I understand, don't worry, I will do this project myself."

"Your first step, you must first take the Tong family's piece of land."

Ye Mian saw their uncle and nephew from a distance, as if they were talking about something very important, and she walked away without going in to disturb her.

"Isn't she just an illegitimate daughter with no identity and no background, look at what the old lady spoiled her? These children in our family didn't see her old man look twice. ”

"Eldest sister, you dissipate your anger, that child is now the granddaughter-in-law of the Qiao family after all, and the old lady is still waiting for her to spread the branches and leaves of the Qiao family, of course she has to be spoiled. Besides, how can a grandson be close to a grandson. ”

In the side hall, two women were gossiping, it was Qiao Zhanbei's aunt Qiao Jinlan and aunt cousin.

Ye Mian just hit her, Qiao Jinlan saw her, her face did not change, her arms folded her chest, and she said: "What eldest granddaughter-in-law, it wasn't the sister-in-law who forced Zhanbei to marry her, but the sister-in-law too, in order to atone for herself, she did not hesitate to let her son marry an orphan girl from that background!" ”

Ye Mian knew why this aunt looked down on her, and replied directly: "Auntie, what are you talking about here?" I fired my cousin before, it was a business affair, he was late and left early every day, and he embezzled public funds, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling outside-"

"You little girl, shut up!" Qiao Jinlan interrupted Ye Mian strongly, she knew that her son was not angry, but she couldn't listen to Ye Mian's mouth.

"Then please let my aunt put aside her prejudices against me." Ye Mian is colored.

Qiao Jinlan sneered, "What I said is the truth!" Back then, your mother-in-law and your mother liked a man at the same time, and then the two turned against each other, and your mother was forced to death by her! She is good to you, took you to Qiao's family to raise, and forced Zhanbei to marry you, how much do you think she loves you? That's when she wanted to atone for her sins! It's not how good you really are! ”

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Ye Mian's body shook, and his brain buzzed.

Is that really the case?

She hadn't thought about it before, why Qiao's mother had to force Qiao Zhanbei to marry her, she knew that he couldn't tolerate any woman in his heart at that time......

"Eldest sister, of course our sleep is really good, really good!" A confident female voice sounded, and a tall, slender figure came in at the door of the side hall.

The person who came was Ye Mian's mother-in-law, Ms. Tang Wanzhou.

She is wearing a dark red dress, black hair, her skin is white and glowing, her face is rich and beautiful, even if she is over half a hundred years old, she still has charm.

When Qiao Jinlan saw her, she just pulled the corners of her mouth, still looking confident.

Tang Wanzhou glanced at Qiao Jinlan, and said: "Your unfortunate son is a moth in Qiao's family, and Mianmian expelled him, which was also instructed by Zhanbei, you have the gas to find Zhanbei to scatter, don't pick soft persimmons and pinch them!" ”

Qiao Jinlan was so frightened by her that her face turned pale, and she couldn't speak.

Ye Mian thought that Tang Wanzhou would deny this, but she didn't, she was still like before, just blindly protecting herself. If she hadn't done it, why didn't she just clarify it and slap her aunt in the face?

So, she is good to herself and really wants to atone for her sins?

"Mianmian, let's go downstairs, don't be like people with pink eye." Qiao Wanzhou walked up to Ye Mian and took her hand and left.

Ye Mian saw that she didn't explain, her heart felt as uncomfortable as a soft thorn, and she wanted to ask clearly, but she was afraid that it would be moved to the table, which would embarrass everyone.

She couldn't help but think again.

My ears were full of the words my aunt had just said.

Was Mom really driven to death by her?

"Mom, why don't you say hello in advance when you come back." Qiao Zhanbei met them at the staircase on the second floor, and when he saw Ms. Tang at first glance, he was slightly stunned.

"I know you're busy, so I won't mess with you."

Their mother and son exchanged pleasantries, Ye Mian didn't interject a word, and when she sat down, Qiao Zhanbei wrapped her waist around her waist and asked softly in her ear, "What's wrong?" The face is not very good-looking, is it wearing less? Cool down today. ”

He took off his suit jacket and draped it over her.

"Thanks, I'm a little cold." Ye Mian came back to his senses and said lightly.

She was really cold, the chill seeped out from her heart, her hands and feet were cold, her mind was full of the scene of her mother hanging herself that night, eating the dishes that Qiao Zhanbei sandwiched for her, and she didn't know the taste.

While eating, she turned to her stomach, covered her mouth, didn't care about saying a word, and got up and left the table.

"Grandparents, second uncle, I'm sorry, my stomach is not very comfortable, I'll take a look." Qiao Zhanbei's heart tightened, and he was polite to the elders.

"Quick, go see Mianmian!" Grandma Joe waved her hand at him.

Qiao Zhanbei left the table and quickly went to the bathroom.

"Sister-in-law, are you going to be a mother-in-law?" During the banquet, the second aunt of the Qiao family looked at this scene and asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Tang Wanzhou's eyes lit up, and Mrs. Qiao's eyes lit up.
