Chapter 111 28
The next day, Xiao Qiao received a letter of greeting from Emperor Su E. Said that she went south to Luoyang, passed through Jinyang, and learned that Xiao Qiao was also here.
Chunniang said, “The lady doesn’t need to pay attention to it.”
Xiao Qiao said: “I’m fine too. Since she’s here, she also voted for her, so it doesn’t matter if she meets.”
Chunniang was stunned for a moment, and she glanced at Xiao Qiao quietly. Seeing that she had a smile on her face and her expression as usual, she turned around and went out to answer.
After Chunniang left, Xiao Qiao abandoned the half-written reply from yesterday. I wrote a new letter. After I said a few words about my current situation in the letter, I also said in a mocking tone, Mengfu-jun is very honored to have me in his dreams every night. Is there another gentleman?
At the end of the letter, she added another note: I heard that Liu Su’s wife, Mrs. Feng Yigong’s wife Yu Jia, also arrived in Jinyang a few days ago. I came from a long way, and I know that my husband has an old friendship with Liu Su, so I don’t dare to neglect. Husband can be at ease and don’t have to worry about it.
After writing the letter, when the ink was dry, she rolled it up and put it in the letterbox, and asked the messenger who came yesterday to take it on the road.
…
Xiao Qiao met Su Ehuang, who came to visit, in a side hall of the back house of the government office.
After the Luli Conference at the end of last year, Su Ehuang left Yuyang. Nearly a year has passed. She still looks the same as Xiao Qiao remembers.
As soon as I saw Xiao Qiao, I first praised Xiao Qiao for being more beautiful than before. He smiled and said, “Do you know why I keep calling the lady as my sister? Apart from the fact that I have a relationship with the old lady and had contacts with Zhonglin when I was young, so I felt you were close, and it was also when I saw other people’s homes that my sister and sister came out. Then they traveled together, entered the palace together, were intimate, and had always yearned for it. However, I was the only daughter in my family, and it was inevitable that I would regret it. Seeing such a refined and refined sister, I am envious of beauty, and I am a few years older than my sister. Tuoda is screaming, my sister won’t laugh at me, right?”
Xiao Qiao invited her to be seated and said with a smile, “Why does Madam have to be so self-effacing. Who in the world does not know Madam Yulou’s reputation? I am only a housewife. I used to be in Yuyang, and I was busy feeding the old lady and me all day long. Mother-in-law. When I got here, I only knew how to serve my husband wholeheartedly. I don’t know anything about it. How can I afford such a beautiful lady? As for calling me, it’s a small matter. ”
Su Ehuang looked at Xiao Qiao with a smile on his face, but the smile stagnated slightly.
…
Last year, in Zhongshan, she met Qiao Nu for the first time. Although the two have met several times so far, Mrs. Xu is always nearby.
Su Ehuang noticed that Qiao Nv was silent most of the time, and there were few conversations with herself.
It was during these few brief encounters that Su Ehuang secretly estimated that Wei Shao was a wife from the Qiao family in Yanzhou.
Young, beautiful, and Madam Xu likes her, this is the biggest advantage of Qiao Nu.
Wei Shao has a deep hatred for the Qiao family, and marrying her has another purpose. Nv Qiao herself has no edge at all, and her temperament is as gentle as white water. She is like a shadow behind Mrs. Xu – these are all the disadvantages of Qiao Nu.
Young and beautiful, Mrs. Xu likes her, these might make Wei Shao stay in Qiao’s bed for a few more nights. But for such a woman, Su Ehuang didn’t believe that she could hold Wei Shao’s heart.
What’s more, compared with Qiao Nu’s disadvantages, how much can her advantages weigh in Wei Shao’s mind?
Therefore, Emperor Su E has always been very confident in his return.
She has also analyzed her own strengths and weaknesses since a few years ago, when she slowly turned her attention back to Wei Shao, her old friend from her girlhood.
When she was young, she abandoned him and got married again, but this year she is getting older, which is her disadvantage.
But she also has an advantage, and this advantage is unique, and no one else can have it: what kind of temperament Wei Shao is, what he likes, and what he hates, no one knows better than her.
In the eyes of the world, Wei Shao treated his enemies with cruelty, which made people shudder.
But Emperor Su E knew how sincere he was to those who had fallen into his heart, and he couldn’t let it go.
No one knew better than her the pain that the death of his father and brother had caused him. It was because of hurting his loved ones that he gnashed his teeth at the enemy to such a degree.
Therefore, Su Ehuang’s confidence is not without reason.
When Wei Shao was twelve years old when his father and brother changed, and she was seriously injured and was bedridden for half a year, she was always caring for him and comforting him in every possible way.
With this kind of affection, ten Qiao women can’t compare with him.
What’s more, Su Ehuang still remembers it clearly. Later, she married Luoyang, and before she left, she wanted to find an opportunity to say goodbye to him.
She had someone send him a message and asked him to come out to meet.
Although Wei Shao did not attend the appointment at that time. But the fifteen-year-old boy asked her messenger to convey his words.
He said that only the blessings of Mann from afar are endless.
Although there is only such a simple sentence, Su Ehuang has learned countless teenagers’ thoughts from it.
So for today’s meeting with Nv Qiao, Su Ehuang has actually been preparing for a long time and looking forward to it for a long time.
As for Mrs. Xu, since she missed a hit, she naturally wouldn’t be stupid enough to hit it hard.
She can go the other way.
After waiting patiently for so long, she felt that the time was almost right, and finally came here.
This time, she will face Wei Shao face to face. This time, it was also the first time between her and the Qiao woman Wei Shao married without Madam Xu’s presence.
This is a battlefield. Like a man’s battlefield, the final result is **** corpse, but the weapon is an invisible knife.
As soon as the scene started, Su Ehuang knew that she had hit a wall. Her opening remarks that sounded friendly, but actually implied provocation, seemed ridiculous to Qiao Nu’s answer.
What made Su Ehuang even more alert was that for a while, she couldn’t see Qiao Nv’s answer, whether it was the needle hidden in the cotton, or her natural thought.
For the first time, she felt that when she called Qiao Nu by the title of “sister”, she actually seemed a little stupid.
But now it can’t be changed.
In the blink of an eye, Su E Huang passed countless thoughts in his heart, but his face did not show any signs, and continued to talk and laugh. After some gossip, he suddenly said: “I also mentioned a sentence in my letter to my sister yesterday. I wanted to go south to Luoyang, and when I passed through this place, I was very surprised to learn that my sister was also there. It would be rude to think about it and not see it. Excuse me by posting. I heard that Zhonglin is now in Pingxi. When Yuyang came here, thousands of miles away, his sister actually followed him all the way to serve. It is really a blessing for Zhonglin to be so virtuous. He was so busy with his own affairs that he kept his sister It’s a bit lonely to be alone here. It’s just that men are no better than us women, and they can only see the sky above the yard. Besides, I have known Zhonglin since childhood, and I have grown up together. I know that he has lofty aspirations and is very talented. And, I’m afraid I’ve neglected the woman’s mind. My sister, don’t blame him.”
Chunniang said with a smile: “Madam is really considerate. Originally, it was not easy for a maid to tell outsiders about the affairs of our female and male lords. Since madam is not an outsider, the maid will talk a little bit more, so as to make madam feel at ease. Madam I don’t know, my lady-in-law is different from the women next to me. The women next to me can’t wait to stick to the man’s side and stare at them all the time, for fear that the fence at home is not properly tied, and a wrong eye will be called a shameless wild dog. I got into it. My daughter-in-law never thought about this. At the beginning of the year, the man came to Jinyang, but the woman was reluctant to come with him at first. The men have been on the road for a few days, and they came back in the middle of the night. Walk with him. The lady came with the man. Here, although the man was busy with the war, the messengers kept coming and going. Just yesterday, the man sent another letter. It’s funny, the messenger Every time he sends a letter, he must wait here, if there is no reply from the female lord, he will not dare to go back, lest he will be reprimanded by the male lord if he returns empty-handed…”
“Chunniang! In front of Madam, what nonsense are you talking about!”
Xiao Qiao frowned slightly and interrupted Chunniang.
Chunniang hurriedly said: “The maid was afraid that Mrs. Liu would be worried, so she talked more. The maid didn’t say anything.” After speaking, she closed her mouth.
Xiao Qiao looked at Su Ehuang and smiled apologetically, “My wet nurse is too talkative, making my wife laugh.”
Su Ehuang’s gaze slowly moved back from Chunniang’s face, and she smiled and said, “Where! Zhonglin and his sister are so affectionate, they are envious of others…”
…
When Su Ehuang was sent out of the gate of the government office, when he got into the carriage and went back to the post house, his heart was beating, and his rhythm was a little out of tune.
Her hands were also a little cold.
Fang Cairen was inside, although she was still laughing with Qiao Nuyan, but her heart was a little confused.
The words that came out of Chunniang’s mouth disturbed her mind.
The purpose of her visit this time was to explore the truth of Qiao’s daughter again.
Didn’t expect this result.
The “wild dog” in Chunniang’s mouth alluded to her.
Without the support of Nv Qiao, a servant, even if she is Nv Qiao’s nurse, would never dare to say such words to herself.
It can be seen that Qiao Nv is not as she originally imagined, but only exists in the Wei family as the shadow of Mrs. Xu. She should have also realized her purpose of wanting to approach Wei Shao.
this is nothing. Emperor Su E didn’t mind, and knew that it was impossible to keep her purpose hidden all the time.
What disturbed her was the daily life between Wei Shao and Nv Qiao that the nurse said.
Wei Shao may live in the same room with this Qiao girl and sleep in the same bed. But Emperor Su E didn’t believe that Wei Shao would be so good with the daughter of the enemy family.
It must be that the wet nurse got her housewife’s behest and asked her to deliberately fabricate it in front of her so that she could retreat.
On the way back, Su Ehuang told herself this over and over in her heart.
When the carriage stopped outside the gate of the post house, her originally chaotic mood had gradually calmed down again.
As long as she can get close to Wei Shao, she will definitely have the opportunity to wake up the young man in Wei Shao’s heart who once wished her endless blessings. She is very confident.
“Tell the Yicheng that I have a headache and have to stay to recover.”
After entering the post house, Su Ehuang coldly instructed the maid.
…
Three days ago, Wei Shao received a reply from Xiao Qiao.
Every time I read her letter, it was a very pleasant experience for Wei Shao, who was going through one battle after another. For this reason, he even specifically pointed to a messenger, which was only used to transmit private letters between himself and her.
This is the secret of Junhou, even Gongsun Yang does not know.
Wei Shao always thought her letters were too short. It was gone after a few moments. So I can’t bear to watch it every time. Always read a paragraph, reminisce about it, and then read the next paragraph.
This time too.
At that time, he carried people behind his back, and slowly read it paragraph by paragraph, when he read Xiao Qiao said, “Mengfu-jun has me in his dreams every night, Manman is very honored, how dare there be anything else in Manman’s dream. “Lang Jun?” Wei Shao was quite proud, as if she had a playful look when she said this, and the corners of her lips tickled slightly.
He continued to look, and when he saw the end, his eyes suddenly stopped.
Su’s came to Jinyang? What does she want to do? Man Man shouldn’t be thinking nonsense, right?
In his mind, these three thoughts immediately popped up one after another.
