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

Chapter 298: Administrative Office
Breeze.

Qiao Wei turned around, but his sight was attracted by the man in dark red clothes behind Sun An.

Her eyes were bright, her black hair glowed with a little purple-red luster under the sunlight, and she looked at Qiao Wei with a faint smile on her lips.

She walked forward quickly, her eyes full of surprise, "Why are you here?"

Sun Quan crossed his arms, sighed, and said helplessly, "This lady lingered and refused to go home, so I had no choice but to chase her to Wan County!"

Qiao Wei lowered his voice and said, "It's obvious that you are hiding in Wan County because you are worried about the Wei family's affairs!"

"Is it impossible to save them all?" Sun Quan stroked Qiao Wei's cheek with an intimate tone.

No matter what the reason was, she gently tugged at his sleeve and said, "Are you tired or hungry from the journey? I'll take you home for dinner!"

"That's good. I am indeed hungry."

Sun An warmly took Qiao Wei's hand and whispered in Qiao Wei's ear, "Don't worry, I'm here to support you this time!"

When she returned, she told Sun Quan about the situation of the Qiao family. Sun Quan said nothing at the moment, but arranged the trip the next day.

Qiao Wei turned his head to the side. The man in the morning light had sharp profile lines, revealing a sense of coldness and alienation. Standing in the crowd, he was also conspicuous.

He seemed to sense her gaze, turned his head and smiled in response, then lowered his voice and whispered in her ear, "Why, after not seeing you for a few months, have you discovered that the men out there are not as good-looking as your husband?
No matter how beautiful she is, don’t look at her like that on the street. I can’t control myself easily.”

Qiao Wei stretched out his hand and gently twisted his waist, "An'er is still here!"

They dare to say anything on the street.

He chuckled softly and held Qiao Wei's mischievous hand tightly.

As soon as Sun Quan entered the Qiao family's door, the family members received the news and rushed to pay their respects.

He sat in the upper seat, and said nonchalantly, "Speaking of which, I am also a junior, so why should I trouble the elders to come visit me? I should be the one to go and pay my respects. This is really rude."

According to the seniority, this is true, but no one in the Qiao family dared to discuss the seniority rules in front of Sun Quan. And when Sun Quan said this, he didn't really mean to apologize.

It was clearly just a polite remark. Since it was just a polite remark, no one should take it seriously.

"I came here to check on my mother-in-law's condition. I didn't know how serious her condition was, so I asked my wife to come back to visit her first. But I didn't expect that my mother-in-law was actually sick because of anger.

I think my mother-in-law thinks that we, the younger generation, are not doing well, so I thought it would be better to bring her to live with me, so that my wife can feel more at ease. "

If Qiao Weiruo said that she wanted to take Qiao's mother to Wu County to be taken care of, the village head could think that she was just throwing a tantrum and just send her away according to the clan rules.

But when the same words came out of Sun Quan's mouth, it became a warning.

The head of the village said quickly, "Your Excellency is disparaging our Qiao family by saying this. Although Wu County is good and has many famous doctors, Wan County is not bad after all."

"Uncle, you have misunderstood Zhongmou. I have no parents and I am in mourning. I naturally hope to take care of my mother-in-law as a filial piety." Sun Quan did not intend to give in. "Madam's mother is naturally my biological mother. It is reasonable for me to take care of her myself."

The head of the village was also upset that a mother like Qiao had caused so many troubles.

"It's good that you are filial, but your niece is still a member of the Qiao family. The fifth branch also has its inheritance, and the other branches of the Qiao family will not sit idly by. Even if it's not good enough, it's not reasonable to ask your niece and son-in-law to support her." The head of the village knew that Sun Quan was here to support Qiao Wei, so he had to soften his tone. "If you want to be filial, you don't have to go through so much trouble. Just send some capable and willing people to serve."

Sun Quan had achieved his goal, so he decided to stop while he was ahead. "Uncle is indeed wise and fair, and he is more thoughtful than the younger generation. I will send some medicinal herbs and servants, and I will ask for your guidance in the future."

The head of the village even said he didn't dare.

The words were answered, and within a cup of tea, the herbs and servants were delivered. They had been prepared long ago, and they were delivered only after the village head agreed. "Such a grand event?" Qiao Wei looked at the large box of herbs. Were they going to eat them directly?

"After all, it is still the mourning period, so it is not appropriate to send anything else. This medicinal material is the most practical."

Qiao Wei was a little confused. So many medicinal herbs would be very important supplies in the army. What was the meaning of sending them here so easily?

"I also sent some to the Zhou family." Sun Quan saw Qiao Wei, who was full of doubts, and chuckled, "Little Qiao is about to give birth, isn't this considered your husband's support for you?"

"That's great. That's too great." Qiao Wei's eyes lit up. Childbirth is the gate of hell for women. She herself almost died because of this.

Sending it in the name of the Sun family is also a warning to the sisters of the Gu family.

"Then, when Rong'er gives birth, can I go to accompany her?" Qiao Wei asked in a low voice.

Sun Quan shook his head, "I have no say in this matter."

After all, he was a prince. Sending medicinal herbs was a show of concern in the name of relatives. Any more would be interfering in the private affairs of his retainers.

Qiao Wei couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"However, I can write a letter and ask Brother Zhong to come back and take charge in person. Would you be relieved if this were the case?"

Qiao Wei nodded quickly, "Of course."

Sun Quan looked at Qiao Wei's smile and saw that it didn't seem fake. He pursed his lips slightly and asked, "No thanks?"

"Yes, if you want something to eat, I'll tell them to make it."

"You decide on the arrangements. I'll go and accompany Deng'er. I haven't seen him for a few months. I wonder if he still remembers me as his father. If you want to thank me," Sun Quan stood up and went to the house, and whispered in Qiao Wei's ear, "remember to work harder at night."

……

Although Qiao Wei was asked to work hard, in the end it was Sun Quan himself who worked hard.

After they were warm and full, Sun Quan held Qiao Wei in his arms and played with her hair with his fingers. "I'm afraid we'll have to move after the New Year."

"Where to move?"

"Nanchang or Jingkou, choose one."

"Not yet decided?"

Sun Quan nodded, "Where do you like?"

"The government affairs are so important, why are you asking me what I like?"

This involves the strategy for governing the entire Jiangdong region, and also means whether Jiangdong will move westward or northward after Xiao leaves office.

"What did the Chief Secretary and Mr. Lu say?"

"This time, their opinions are quite unanimous. They decided to settle in Jingkou and head west to Jingzhou." Sun Quan asked Qiao Wei, "What do you think?"

Qiao Wei did not directly state his opinion, but asked Sun Quan, "You are so hesitant, do you want to establish the capital in Nanchang?"

"I have killed Huang Zu to avenge my father, but I have not yet avenged my brother."
