Mrs. Qiao took Qiao Jiaojiao into the house first. After a while, Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi came over.
When Qiao Jiaojiao saw the two of them, she closed her eyes and was about to fall asleep, but she immediately sat up again with a grunt.
【Ah ah ah! Who can tell me what is going on with Tan Hanchi! 】
[He is such a powerful person, if he can really be used by our Qiao family, that would be great! 】
[And he is the biggest victim of the Chunwei fraud case. If he can be protected, perhaps the fraud case can be thoroughly investigated along Tan Hanchi's line! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help but become distracted while thinking about it.
[If you want to talk about a dog, you have to be a male protagonist. While he rescued Tan Hanchi and extended favors, he also protected the treacherous official Qing Guogong in the fraud case. It was a good outcome for both sides! 】
[No wonder he had the last laugh. Could it be that he was playing Mission: Impossible! 】
Mrs. Qiao didn't expect that the scholar who had just followed her two sons would be such an important and key figure, and now even she became curious.
Seeing that Qiao Jiaojiao was still looking at her two brothers eagerly, Mrs. Qiao said casually:
"My mother has never seen the scholar who was following you just now."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiaojiao threw herself into Mrs. Qiao's arms and screamed happily.
[Mother, mother, your question really touches my heart! Mom, you always understand me! Woohoo! 】
Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi didn't know that their mother could read Qiao Jiaojiao's thoughts, so they couldn't help but nodded secretly when they heard this.
Sure enough, mother and daughter are connected!
So, Qiao Tianjing explained warmly: "Mom, that person just now is a friend that my second brother and I just met today."
"His name is Tan Hanchi. He is from Zhuozhou. He came to participate in the Spring Festival this year. My son met him once on the Lantern Festival night. He is an upright man and has great literary talents."
"My second brother and I passed by the teahouse today and happened to see him being made things difficult for him by Sheng Langjun of the Duke of Qing's Palace, so we came to help him, and this is how we formed a fate."
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, she had to sigh at the magic of fate.
[It turns out that Sheng Mingcheng of the Duke of Qing Dynasty knew Tan Hanchi before Spring! 】
[No wonder the Qingguo Guild chose Tan Hanchi to be the unlucky guy who was replaced. Could this be Sheng Mingcheng’s idea? 】
[Unexpectedly, it was such a coincidence that my brother and the others encountered Tan Hanchi being bullied, and they even drew their swords to help him when they were in trouble! 】
[Tsk, tsk, tsk, could it be that God is helping our Qiao family? If Tan Hanchi can be poached, King Jing probably won't be able to come up with so many tricks in the future! 】
When Qiao Tianjing heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head in amusement.
Little sister, it’s not God who’s helping our Qiao Mansion, but you, this precious pimple!
Ever since the Lantern Festival, when he learned about Tan Hanchi's extraordinary qualities from Qiao Jiaojiao, Qiao Tianjing sent people to keep an eye on him day and night.
When he heard that he was being bullied today, Qiao Tianjing was furious and pulled Qiao Diyi to rescue him.
In order not to arouse Tan Hanchi's suspicion, they had to act very casually and naturally.
Because during this period of time, I found out that Tan Hanchi had become famous because of the Lantern Festival, and many aristocratic families had extended olive branches to him, but he remained unmoved.
It can be seen from this that he has no intention of making friends with powerful people, and he is also very defensive about the approach of others.
Fortunately, everything seems to be going well so far, especially when he and his second brother introduced themselves, Tan Hanchi seemed very surprised.
Qiao Tianjing attributes this to his father who is famous all over the world.
Mrs. Qiao already knew it, so she asked again: "What about Mr. Tan now? Can he be left in Qiao's house?"
Qiao Tianjing shook his head, "He is a man of character. He said that he would come to see you again when the spring period is over and he has achieved success in his studies."
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she couldn't help but nodded, "He is indeed a rare and good boy."
Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel anxious after hearing this.
[Oh, you have to keep an eye on this treasure, Tan Hanchi. If Chunwei's ranking is certain, the Duke of Qing will send someone to assassinate him! 】
[If I had been a step too late, I would have been rescued by King Jing! 】
Qiao Tian had already made careful arrangements, and after hearing this, Mrs. Qiao secretly decided to give her husband a warning tonight.
When Qiao Zhongguo returned home in the evening, Qiao Jiaojiao happened to be taken away by Qiao Tianjing to play in the front yard. Mrs. Qiao immediately talked about Chunwei and Tan Hanchi.
Qiao Zhongguo patted Mrs. Qiao's hand and said warmly: "Madam, don't worry, I will talk to the boss tonight."
"The time for Spring Festival has been decided. There will be three events on the 9th, 12th and 15th of February. The person in charge has appointed Xin Ruizhi, the Minister of Rites."
Mrs. Qiao tilted her head when she heard this, "Today is the fifth day of February, isn't that what happened these days?"
"I remember that the Minister of Rites is the son-in-law of Duke Qing, right? This matter really has something to do with Duke Qing's house. Jiaojiao is really amazing!"
Qiao Zhongguo nodded happily, "Yes, if it weren't for Jiaojiao, I wouldn't dare to imagine the consequences!"
Mrs. Qiao once again talked about what happened today at the Yanguo Duke's Mansion. Qiao Zhongguo sighed after hearing this:
"Madam, from now on we just have to be filial to our father-in-law."
Mrs. Qiao nodded slightly, "I think so too."
After a while, Mrs. Qiao brought Qiao Jiaojiao back, and Qiao Zhongguo took Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi to the study.
Qiao Zhongguo got straight to the point and asked about Tan Hanchi. The two brothers looked at each other with solemn expressions, seeming to have made a lot of determination.
Qiao Tianjing was the first to speak: "Dad, do you think my little sister is okay?"
Qiao Zhongguo was slightly stunned, wondering why Qiao Tianjing suddenly turned the topic to Qiao Jiaojiao.
But he didn't deal with his two sons and said without hesitation: "You two brats combined can't even compare to Jiaojiao's toes!"
"That's daddy's baby bump, a caring little cotton-padded jacket. What's wrong with this?"
Before Qiao Zhongguo finished his praise, Qiao Tianjing suddenly fell to his knees with a thud. Qiao Diyi did not hesitate and knelt down with him.
Qiao Zhongguo was shocked. Could it be that these two brats were competing for favor tonight?
I have loved both of them for more than ten years, now why do I love Jiaojiao even more?
"What are you doing? Do you want me to hug you like Jiaojiao?"
The solemn expression on Qiao Tianjing's face almost broke when he heard this.
Dad, can you please stop being so unreasonable!
Qiao Zhongguo also saw that his two sons had serious business to talk about, so he calmed down and said calmly: "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have anything to say, hurry up."
Qiao Tianjing took a deep breath and summoned up the courage to say: "Dad, actually my little sister... my little sister is very extraordinary. From the day she was born, my second brother and I have been able to hear my little sister's thoughts. !”
"And my little sister seems to be able to predict the future. All her predictions have come true one by one, including Tan Hanchi. I only contacted him after listening to my little sister's voice."
"Dad, my little sister is dedicated to our family. Although this matter is really weird, as long as she is a little sister, we are not afraid!"
"Dad, my son didn't want to tell you at first because I was worried that you wouldn't be able to accept it, but the information revealed by my little sister is getting more and more crucial, and my son knows that he can't hide it anymore!"
"You love my little sister so much, so you won't mind this, right?"
Qiao Zhongguo: (☉_☉)
No, I mind.
It turns out that the thoughtful little cotton-padded jacket not only hides the wife, but also hides these two little bastards!
