Aunt Liu carried Qiao Jiaojiao all the way back to the backyard, where the banquet had already begun on both sides.
Mrs. Qiao said she was sorry, stepped down from the table, and fed Qiao Jiaojiao.
Grandma Liu told an interesting story about Qiao Jiaojiao peeing her pants in the front yard, which made Mrs. Qiao laugh.
"Madam, there is no need for tomorrow, just tonight, the news that our young lady peed on His Highness the Crown Prince will probably be spread throughout the capital!"
Qiao Jiaojiao: (/ω＼)
Could this be the legendary pee that made the world famous?
The atmosphere in the room was harmonious, when there was a knock on the door.
"Madam, I am a slave."
That was the voice of another maid reading books.
"Liu Shu, come in." Mother Liu responded in a low voice.
Liu Shu opened the door and came in, looking a little anxious, "Madam, Mrs. Meng just said that Miss Meng went to change clothes before the banquet started and she has not returned yet."
"She was worried that Miss Meng would bump into the distinguished guests in front of her. She seemed a little angry at the moment and wanted Madam to send a few people out to look for her."
Qiao Jiaojiao was already drowsy, but she immediately became excited after hearing this!
【What! Meng Guxue is missing? 】
[It's over, it's over, she must have quietly slipped into the front yard! Now Zhi Bu Dingzheng and King Jing are looking at each other through the air, expressing affection. 】
[This sister is really brave and reckless. If she didn't have the halo of the protagonist, she would have offended the prince and the prince against the official daughter, which would have made her drink a pot! 】
Mrs. Qiao looked calm when she heard this, and said calmly: "Send a few clever maids to look for them. There are many people in the house today and there is a lot of noise everywhere. I guess we can't find anyone until the banquet is over, right?"
Liu Shu's eyes flashed slightly when he heard the words, and he understood instantly.
"My slave understands."
Mrs. Qiao nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Don't make trouble, today is Jiaojiao's full moon banquet, no mistakes are allowed."
Liu Shu went out in response.
Qiao Jiaojiao looked at Mrs. Qiao with her shining eyes.
[Why do I feel like there is something in my mother’s words? 】
Mrs. Qiao raised the corners of her mouth slightly and coaxed Qiao Jiaojiao softly, "Jiaojiao is exhausted today. Let's take a nap first."
Qiao Jiaojiao was shaken and shaken, her eyelids soon began to fight, and then she fell into a deep sleep.
Mrs. Qiao looked out the window with deep eyes, a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes.
There is a small garden in the backyard of Qiao Mansion, which was built by the husband in his spare time. There are rockeries and locust trees scattered in it. It is based on the method of arranging troops. If there is no one to guide it, it will be difficult to get out.
Miss Meng is so restless and wants to use her place in Qiao Mansion to cling to powerful people, so let her stay there until the banquet is over.
At this moment, in the small garden, Meng Guxue came to the same intersection for the sixth time.
Looking at the familiar marks on the rockery wall, Meng Guxue collapsed completely.
Damn it! What the hell is this place!
Moreover, she really needs to pee now!
The banquet lasted for a full hour, and Mrs. Meng was so anxious that her mouth was blistering.
Seeing that all the guests had almost left, Mrs. Meng slumped in her seat, almost crying.
At this moment, Liu Shu hurriedly walked forward, leaned over and said in Mrs. Meng's ear:
"Mrs. Meng, we found Miss Meng. She just got lost in the backyard. It doesn't matter."
Mrs. Meng's whole body was agitated, and she felt like a drowning person rising to the surface of the water.
"Quickly, take me to see that dead girl!" Mrs. Meng said through gritted teeth, not caring about her face.
After seeing the miserable Meng Guxue, Mrs. Meng wanted to slap her in the face.
As a result, Meng Guxue's first words were: "Mother, His Royal Highness and the others are all gone?"
Mrs. Meng suddenly felt dizzy because Meng Guxue asked directly in front of Mrs. Qiao's maid, this and this...
The family is unfortunate!
"Damn girl, come back with me quickly. You won't even be able to step out of the door for half a year!"
Liu Shu pretended not to hear and wanted to give her away. Mrs. Meng was so embarrassed that she repeatedly asked Liu Shu to stay, grabbed Meng Guxue's arm and left.
When Liu Shu went back and reported everything to Mrs. Qiao, Mrs. Qiao's face instantly turned cold.
"She really has such thoughts."
After all the guests had left, Duke Yan came to the door carrying a wooden box.
Mrs. Qiao was happy and close to her biological father when she saw him.
"Dad! Why did you come here!"
Although Duke Yan has turned white on his temples, he is tall and strong, with a straight back and looks very healthy.
He chuckled and said in a loud voice, "Jing'er, it's not like you don't know that dad hates that kind of occasion."
Mrs. Qiao shook her head helplessly and hurriedly went to hug Qiao Jiaojiao.
Qiao Jiaojiao was almost asleep, but the bumps on the road made her completely awake.
Mrs. Qiao pushed Qiao Jiaojiao into Duke Yan's arms, "Jiaojiao, meet your grandfather soon."
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes widened.
[Wow, is this my grandfather? He looks so young, not like someone in his sixties at all! 】
Mrs. Qiao pursed her lips and smiled. It was a pity that her father couldn't hear Jiaojiao's thoughts, otherwise he would be extremely happy.
Duke Yan held Qiao Jiaojiao lovingly and handed over the wooden box in his arms.
"Jing'er, put it away for Jiaojiao. This will be her dowry from now on."
Mrs. Qiao took the wooden box with a curious look on her face and almost dropped it on her foot.
"So heavy!?"
She opened the box and took a look, and couldn't help but let out a low breath.
A box of gold, full of various longevity locks, bracelets, and hairpins.
Mrs. Qiao looked shocked, this is worth a lot of money!
"Dad, there are too many, and my daughter cannot accept them."
Yan Guozheng said seductively: "It's not for you, it's for Jiaojiao. Don't refuse, that's what Grandma Jiaojiao wants."
Mrs. Qiao was startled when she heard this. Her mother had been gone for more than ten years.
While teasing Qiao Jiaojiao, Duke Yan Guo said softly: "Your mother has been preparing for Diyi's child since she was born. She said that there will definitely be a girl in the future."
"Girls have to get married, and the dowry must be generous, so they have been prepared for it early. Who would have known that this baby has been waiting for a full fourteen years."
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she recalled her mother's gentle and caring appearance, and couldn't help but feel a sour taste in her nose.
Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel heartbroken when she saw Mrs. Qiao's eyes were red.
[Mom also misses her mother. My grandmother must be a very kind elder to think so long-term for my mother. If she knew that my mother would be depressed, she would not know how distressed she would be. 】
When Mrs. Qiao heard Qiao Jiaojiao's words, her heart felt sour and painful, and she almost shed tears.
Ruoniang would be so sad if she knew that Duke Yan's mansion would be so abused by her eldest brother and sister-in-law in the future, and that the couple would kill Qiao's mansion.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qiao pinched her sleeves hard and made a decision in her heart.
After Qiao Jiaojiao was taken away by Grandma Liu, Mrs. Qiao said seriously: "Dad, my daughter has something to tell you."
