Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: Da Qiao doesn't want to be a widow anymore

Chapter 295 Good words are hard to persuade
Qiao Wei dismissed everyone and sat alone next to Qiao's mother. Although Qiao's mother was physically restricted, her mind was still clear.

"Mother, this is the last time I'm going to ask you. Do you want to stay here with Qiao Rui, or come back to Wu County with me?"

Regardless of whether she is considered a daughter who married out, Qiao's mother did raise Da Qiao well. She occupied Da Qiao's body, and she is willing to repay the favor.

"Qiao Rui has no say in the Qiao family."

The incident with Mrs. Yang has confirmed Qiao Wei's guess that the Third House adopted Qiao Rui into the Fifth House with the intention of destroying the entire family.

When Qiao Rui was the heir of the third wife, he had to take a share of the third wife's property. But when he inherited the fifth wife, not only did he not take the third wife's property, he could also take the fifth wife's property in the public ownership as his own.

No matter how poor the fifth branch is, as long as it has the Sun family as its in-laws, the Qiao family cannot be too blatant in their spending. For the third branch, it is an extra property for nothing.

And Qiao Rui was a man who didn't use his brain in the right way. He even rushed into Chen's not-so-clever trap.

Even after being sold, you still have to count money for others.

Since the Third House has made up its mind to take over the Fifth House's property, they will certainly not have anyone take good care of Mother Qiao. They may even secretly push for Mother Qiao to die early, or let her die at the time that is most beneficial to their Third House.

Even with the influence of Qiao's mother, when the third room made some unreasonable demands through Qiao Rui, Qiao Wei's situation would become very passive.

“I can take you back to Wu County, buy a courtyard next to the Sun family, and bring the old man who is used to serving our family to serve us.

I will arrange their indentures, and the share used to support you will not go through the Sun family. I have my own private property, including the property you and your father gave me when I got married. It is still there."

Even after giving birth to Sun Deng, Sun Quan gave half of his fiefdom of Nanchang to Qiao Wei as her private treasury.

Qiao Wei understood the plight of women in this era. The idea of ​​following the son after the husband's death was as hard to shake as a mountain. As long as the children and grandchildren were still alive, it was impossible for the parents to go to their daughter's husband for support.

But Qiao Wei told her that as long as her mother was willing, she would use her own private property to support her, and would not use the Sun family's property, so as to give her less reason to criticize.

In other words, when a person has reached such an old age, how can those people's words influence the outcome rather than living a comfortable and peaceful life?
"Mother, I'm telling you for the last time that Qiao Rui is unreliable. Qiao Hui is still young and his mind is still influenced by others. They can't take care of you." Qiao Wei looked at Qiao's mother eagerly.

As long as Qiao's mother nodded, she was willing to risk the world's condemnation and fight for her mother and the entire Qiao clan.

Mother Qiao's cloudy eyes were filled with tears, showing a lot of worry and unwillingness.

Finally, she slowly turned her head away and didn't look at Qiao Wei, expressing her rejection.

Qiao Wei sighed, stood up and left.

Qiao's mother was not feeling well, so Qiao Wei stayed behind to take care of her. He arranged for Sun An to return to Wu County with a letter to Sun Quan. "Go back and listen carefully to Mr. Lu's lessons and your eldest sister-in-law's advice. She has to take care of several young children and manage the household. You should help her more and not just be naughty."

Sun An tilted his head and smiled, "Sister-in-law, you are treating me like a child!"

"If you don't want to hear what I say, then behave like an adult and don't make your brother angry, or you'll come to me to complain." Qiao Wei pinched her cheek, "You've lost a lot of weight following me. Let the kitchen make you something delicious when we get back."

"Okay, okay, sister-in-law is like a mother, I heard everything." Sun An stuck out his tongue, "If I go back by myself, my brother will definitely blame me if he doesn't see you. Sister-in-law, you must go home early!"

Qiao Wei nodded and watched her leave.

When Zhou from the fourth room saw Qiao Wei coming back, she stood up and greeted her, "Madam!" "Sister Zhou, you are too polite. Since we are at home, we are aunt and sister-in-law. Just call me by my name!"
Seeing Qiao Wei being so easy to talk to, Zhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Mother-in-law is also sick because of the matter with Granny Yang, and asked me to come and explain to you. The people from the fourth room have also been brought here. Can you take a look?"

"In fact, we all know what Grandma Yang really wants to do." Qiao Wei said, "A servant girl caused trouble and hurt the old lady. I feel bad about it."

Speaking of this, Zhou felt a little uncomfortable. The Fourth House suffered such a big loss at the hands of the Third House, how could she really swallow this?

"As long as my sister understands it in her heart, our fourth room will not be wronged."

Qiao Wei nodded and said, "We are a family, and the future of the fifth house still depends more on the fourth house."

Zhou's eyes lit up slightly.

"Sister, you can trust the fourth room. Just like what my sister said, we are a family."

Qiao Wei gently took Zhou's hand and said, "I don't have a biological sister-in-law, so I'll have to ask my sister-in-law to take care of these affairs. The fourth house has always been strict with its rules, so please teach me more."

"Since my sister has said this, I will do my best to fulfill my responsibilities and will not say anything."

Although it was the head of the village who ordered the fourth room to "make amends" by taking over the miscellaneous affairs of the fifth room, the incident of Grandma Yang left some resentment in the hearts of the people in the fourth room.

When hiring someone to take charge, you still need to delegate power.

Chen wanted to use Qiao Rui to take over the fifth room, but Qiao Wei didn't want her to be too proud.

Chen was stupid and offended the fourth wife, making enemies for herself, so Qiao Wei took advantage of the situation and dragged the fourth wife to compete with Chen.

Sun Quan is good at checks and balances, and Qiao Wei has to learn something by following him.

The fifth room was previously managed by Qiao's mother. When Qiao's mother fell ill, Qiao Rui handed the key to Chen.

Chen certainly didn't want to give it, so Qiao Wei accompanied Zhou to get all the account books and keys back. Although Chen was angry in her heart, Qiao Wei still had some say as her daughter.

What's more, Qiao Wei also has the judgment of the village head.

"My fifth aunt has been ill these days, and the house is in a mess. I heard from the old woman next to my aunt that even the number of cloths in the warehouse is not correct."

Chen's face tightened, "Are you saying that I am stealing from the company?"

"I dare not! My sister-in-law is a very good person. She is well-known in the family. However, the family affairs are complicated. Some people are short-sighted and take advantage of the family affairs to have improper thoughts."

Zhou said she didn't dare, but the sarcasm in her eyes was not concealed at all, "Even our fourth room can produce someone like Yang Po, let alone the fifth room without a mistress. So my sister said that we should take this opportunity to establish some rules, so that those people will not think that the fifth room is weak and easy to control.

The master is the master, and no one can bully the master."

Chen understood that Zhou was making indirect accusations and her face turned red, but because Qiao Wei was present, she could only endure it for the time being.
