I am a sister-in-law in the Three Kingdoms

As the mother-in-law, Mrs. Wu showed her determination to protect her eldest daughter-in-law Qiao Jingjing with such a determined attitude.

Mrs. Wu called Qiao Jingjing to her side again.

"Come here and sit next to me. What I'm saying today is specifically for Zhongmou and Gongjin! I don't care what they are discussing outside? If I don't agree, I just don't agree!"

Mrs. Wu was so excited.

It was Qiao Jingjing who asked her mother-in-law to listen to Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's opinions first.

"Madam, please listen to what they have to say."

Zhou Yu just analyzed with Sun Quan and Mrs. Wu: "At that time, the Chu king was sealed to the edge of Jingshan Mountain, which was not a hundred miles away. However, the capable descendants of the Chu army expanded the land, opened up the territory, established a foundation in Yingdu, and occupied Jingshan. From the land of Yangzhou to the South China Sea..."

This was only half said.

He was interrupted excitedly by Mrs. Wu.

Mrs. Wu only wanted to protect her eldest daughter-in-law.

Zhou Yu had to continue this time: "The descendants of Chu Jun have been passed down from generation to generation for more than 900 years. The generals inherited the remaining power of their father and brother and commanded the six counties in Jiangdong. Today, the troops are strong and well-fed, the morale of the soldiers is strong, and the mountains are built as Copper boils the sea into salt, the people's hearts are stable, and the morale of the soldiers is strong. We can be said to be invincible. Why should we send hostages to Cao Cao? No matter who they are, once the hostages are under Cao Cao's hands, we will have to be controlled by Cao Cao.

By that time, the greatest benefit we can obtain is nothing more than a prince's seal, a dozen servants, a few carriages, and a few horses.

Can it be compared with our own industry creation and claiming to be a loner?
For now, the best thing is not to send hostages!
Instead, wait and see Cao Cao's movements and changes.If Cao Cao can abide by morality and save the world, then it is not too late for us to surrender and work together to revitalize the Han Dynasty.

If Cao Cao is arrogant, seeking to create chaos, and playing with fire, the general only needs to wait for fate, so why send hostages?Don't worry about the noise outside. "

Zhou Yu's words illustrate his foresight.

It also completely touched the heart of Sun Quan.

Sun Quan finally agreed with Sun Ce's great trust in Zhou Yu when he was dying.

Mrs. Wu understood what Zhou Yu meant.

She quickly took Sun Quan's hand: "What Zhou Gongjin said makes sense. He is about the same age as your brother. I have always treated him as a son. From now on, you must treat him as an elder brother!"

The matter of sending hostages is not so much a turmoil in Jiangdong.

It is better to say that it is a pathfinding stone for Sun Quan to test Jiangdong's people's hearts.

Later, Sun Quan found an opportunity to apologize to Qiao Jingjing:
"My sister-in-law has been wronged! Thank you, sister-in-law, for taking the overall situation into consideration for Zhongmou. Zhongmou cannot repay my sister-in-law for her kindness to Zhongmou."

If Qiao Jingjing couldn't keep her temper in this matter, she would be the first to make a fuss.

Or if it is speculated by someone with ulterior motives, wouldn't it be another dispute within the Sun Group?

Qiao Jingjing is now a widow, living alone in Fuyuan with her son and daughter.

If her brother-in-law, Sun Zhongmou, wanted to visit her, it would be somewhat inconvenient.

If he happened to meet her in his mother's house, Mrs. Wu, he would be normal and magnanimous.

It would be a different matter if Sun Quan brought his family and daughters to Fuyuan as guests.

But Sun Quan always had some things besides Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao. If he was unsure about family affairs or foreign affairs, he needed to discuss them with his sister-in-law.

Some things can be heard by others, but some things should not be heard by others.

Sun Quan also weighed several times in his heart.

In the end, it’s all about priorities.

He decided to come to Fuyuan in person to visit his sister-in-law.

As soon as they saw Lu Meng, Ling Tong and others taking turns on duty outside Fu Yuan, there were 30 maids personally selected by the eldest brother in Fu Yuan standing aside.

Sun Quan blamed himself for overthinking.

The relationship between Sun Quan and his sister-in-law Qiao Jingjing has always been frank, and it was the same with Sun Ce after that.

But some people think otherwise.

Sun Quan's wife, Xie, had been under Qiao Jingjing's limelight for many years.

At that time, she had looked down on Qiao Jingjing's low status when she first came here, thinking that a down-and-out refugee woman with a poor family background could not compete with her Xie family.

Later, it turned out that Mrs. Qiao was not very capable.

Not only was she favored by her eldest brother Sun Ce, but also liked by her mother-in-law Mrs. Wu. Everyone in the family, as well as important ministers and generals such as Wu Commandery Jiangdong, all admired her.The Gu family just disappeared without a trace.

When Sun Ce was around, Xie couldn't bear it. Anyway, she followed her elder brother and sister-in-law so that she could have meat to eat.

But the eldest brother Sun Ce is dead, and the sister-in-law still won’t give up the throne!

My sister-in-law also manages the house.

Now the leader of Jiangdong is her Xie family's husband Sun Quan, and she is the wife of Sun Quan, the general who conquered the captives.

The most legitimate woman in Jiangdong.

As expected, Xie found Qiao Jingjing.

On the surface, she came to visit, but actually she came to show off her power:

"Sister-in-law, look at me. I have worked with the general all these years without any merit, but with hard work. I am! My health is not up to par, and I have not been able to give birth to a son and a half for the general these years. Every time I see Lian Shiyi They both have children, and I feel very envious.

Sister-in-law, I am the general's wife, married to a matchmaker, and my parents' orders. You all know these. I work diligently, unite my sisters-in-law, serve my mother-in-law, and take care of the general's daily life.

Now, the general has taken over Jiangdong and is busy with affairs.

I will take over and raise my eleventh-year-old son with my own hands. There will be someone to succeed the general in the future! "

Mr. Xie understood very well, but his words were confused.

She thought that since she had not given birth to a son, she would use her authority as a wife to steal Yuan Shiyi's son, and her status would become higher.The son can still be the heir in the future.

It's so beautiful!

Sun Ce also had a son, a son born to his first wife and raised by his loving wife.

Even after Sun Ce died, he did not pass on his status to his son.

When Mrs. Xie saw Mrs. Xiao Qiao from Zhou Yu's family in front of her, she simply spoke openly:

"Mrs. Xiao Qiao, it's just right that you are here. Please stay with our sister-in-law as much as possible, comfort her as much as possible, and let me put aside the family matters and leave them to me.

The day before yesterday, I heard from my aunt that Xu Jiao of their family wanted to remarry.

Sister-in-law, you are still young. It is not difficult for a widow to remarry these days!
If the sister-in-law really can't let go of her eldest brother, even if the eldest brother's coffin returns to his hometown in Fuchun to keep vigil for him, it will be a nice talk. "

What a wonderful statement Xie made.

My sister-in-law is now just a widow.

Xie still called Da Qiao "sister-in-law" for the sake of her eldest brother's former dignity.

Xiao Qiao's face turned green with anger as he sent Mr. Xie away.

This Xie family is actually Sun Quan’s first wife!Is this to force you into the palace?Do you want to drive her sister away?

Qiao Jingjing patted her sister's hand.

Dispute is coming!

These people can't sit still so quickly!

See how she cleans up.

Qiao Jingjing asked the maid to pack the boxes and luggage, and then personally packed the bedding for A Shao and his two daughters.

He also specially called Lu Meng in to talk:
"Amon, Marquis Wu's coffin has been buried in the Fuchun Ancestral Tomb. I plan to take the children to see it in the next two days. You first send some people to explore the way."

Lu Meng received this order.

At first listen, it feels normal, but upon closer inspection, it feels wrong.

Wu Hou passed away and General Sun was established. Jiangdong was unstable. Even Zhang Changshi ordered all places not to go out.

Moreover, Lu Meng had not heard Sun Quan mention that Mrs. Da Qiao was going to inspect the tomb of Marquis Wu.

Lu Meng felt something was abnormal.

Hurry up and talk to Sun Quan.

When Sun Quan heard this, he felt it was unusual. He put down his unfinished business and came to dissuade him.

When Sun Quan came, he saw his sister-in-law sorting out his eldest brother's study and his belongings.In Sun Ce's study, Sun Quan advised his sister-in-law:

"My sister-in-law misses her elder brother. As a younger brother, I understand, but I can't comfort my sister-in-law in the slightest. But please think again!"

Sun Quan asked his sister-in-law not to return to her hometown in Fuchun.

Not safe.

"It will be peaceful and stable in the future. No matter how many times you go, sister-in-law, your younger brother will never stop you."

Qiao Jingjing is just light and decadent.

"You don't have to worry! The reason why I stay here is that I'm afraid that there are too many things at home to take care of for a while, and I'm afraid that my mother will be sad. Your Xie family is the most clever and thoughtful, and she's justifiable..."

Talk to here.

Sun Ce instead begged his sister-in-law to retreat.

Qiao Jingjing was also magnanimous and asked the maids to step back.

Sun Quan first apologized again, and then talked about some complicated things in Wu County and Jiangdong.

"These things are so stressful. Although there are Zhang Zibu and Zhou Gongjin, sister-in-law, you must understand that we have lost the broom and picked up the dustpan. I hope that sister-in-law, you will be wise and calm, and watch carefully for my brother in the dark and in the open.

Sister-in-law, don’t be the same as Mrs. Xie!
If I don’t hide it from my sister-in-law, I’ve already concealed it from her.However, due to the reputation of her mother and family, she often instigated and made things difficult for her.If it weren't for you, sister-in-law, to mediate, I don't know how much injustice Eleven would have suffered!

I have long wanted to marry another wife, but I haven't had time to discuss it with my mother and sister-in-law. "

Sun Quan's implication was that Mr. Xie was so out of control and dared to jump out and bully her sister-in-law at this time that she had suffered enough.

Qiao Jingjing waited for Sun Quan to continue.

Sun Quan said that he wanted to marry a girl from the Xu family and become his official wife.

Qiao Jingjing asked: "Which girl from the Xu family is she?"

Sun Quan said: "She was originally married to Lu Shang, but because of Lu Shang's death, she became a widow at a young age. Xu Kun couldn't bear to let his daughter become a widow, so he asked his elder brother to take his daughter home."

It's this girl from the Xu family.

The widow Xu Jiao in Xie's mouth.

Sun Quan also explained to his sister-in-law that the reason why he wanted to acquire this girl from the Xu family was because Jiangdong was currently unstable and he needed a more stable assistant.

If you want stability, there is nothing better than marriage.

Sun Quan actually had already made up his mind, but he still wanted to ask his sister-in-law what she meant.

I just want Qiao Jingjing to make a decision, but she still wants Sun Quan to commit suicide.

The two people's styles are really similar.

Qiao Jingjing was silent for a moment.

"In terms of seniority, this Xu Jiao is actually you and your eldest brother's cousin."

But Sun Quan cited an example from the Western Han Dynasty, when Empress Dowager Lu married her granddaughter to her biological son.

The uncle marries his niece.

Such a thing was not surprising at the time.

No one can object to Sun Quan because of blood ties.

Qiao Jingjing only said: "Just discuss these matters with your mother, and come and ask me again! It's really rare for me to have a moment of peace here. You and Mrs. Xie come here in turns!"

Sun Quan told the truth:
"Sister-in-law, Mrs. Xie is the head wife that my mother has hired for me. If I marry Mrs. Xu, I must make Mrs. Xu the first wife and Mrs. Xie as my second wife. In the meantime, I hope my sister-in-law can persuade my mother. Mother listens to her words the most.

Nowadays, only my sister-in-law can understand my dilemma and I can only ask my sister-in-law to help me.

Furthermore, Mrs. Xie has been the mistress of our courtyard for so many years. She will definitely be unhappy if she is asked to abdicate in favor of someone else. She still has to beg her sister-in-law to handle the matter.

My younger brother is already too busy with things outside, and the things in the backyard can no longer stand the trouble. "

Sun Quan asked Qiao Jingjing for help.

To give him and the Sun Group a solid right-hand man, and to stabilize the Jiangdong Group.

Xie must abdicate and make way for others.

Qiao Jingjing originally sympathized most with the struggle between wives and concubines in the compound of these three wives and four concubines.

I feel that they are just pitiful people, appendages of men, with no self.

But Mrs. Xie attacked her first, so she couldn't blame her.

Sun Quan has left.

Qiao Manman had just come out and heard from her sister that it was Sun Quan who wanted to remarry a wife with a family and background, so that the Xie family could abdicate the throne in favor of someone more worthy.

Qiao Manman was very happy for a moment.

"Mr. Xie deserves to be unlucky! My own position is not stable yet, so I just want to bully you, sister."

Qiao Manman also understood the reason behind Sun Quan's second wife, Xu Jiao.

She understands this from her own experience.

When Qiao Manman first married Zhou Yu, she was originally a concubine.

Later, because she accompanied Zhou Yu to Baqiu and followed closely, she gave birth to a son and a daughter.

And because her elder sister was favored by Marquis Wu and was very famous in Jiangdong, Qiao Manman also became a phoenix Gaozhier in the Zhou family.

Everyone else rushed to curry favor with Qiao Manman.

At that time, her father-in-law Zhou Yi stood up and demanded justice:
"Xiao Qiao has made great contributions to the Zhou family. She has contributed to the birth of children. She is a virtuous and virtuous woman. She should be promoted to the head wife."

So I had wronged Lu Qiuqiu for nothing, taking care of Zhou Yu's family affairs for so many years.

The so-called wife or concubine, isn't it determined by the girl's family background?
Qiao Manman also understood these ups and downs.

How many times have I gone home and said to my husband Zhou Yu: "My sister is now pitiful and helpless. Among my parents' family, your husband is the most powerful. Husband, you must give me more face to prevent my sister from being bullied shamelessly." Let’s go.”

There was no need for Qiao Manman to say these words.

Zhou Yu would naturally prefer Qiao Jingjing.

Mrs. Da Qiao is both his sister-in-law and the widow of a good brother.

Sun Quan probably went home that day and took the lead in educating Xie.

Xie came to see Qiao Jingjing again the next day.

Her appearance was completely different from the one she had the day before.

"Sister-in-law, I was confused the day before yesterday and I said the wrong thing! Please, sister-in-law, please go and persuade the general and don't let me hold tea and kowtow to a widow!"

When Xie mentioned the widow, she suddenly looked up at Qiao Jingjing.

Isn’t Qiao Jingjing a widow?
At this moment, isn't Xie just kneeling in front of Qiao Jingjing to beg her?

Qiao Jingjing didn't say anything yet.

Little Sister Qiao had already retorted: "Mrs. Xie, what's the matter with the widow? You said that day, it's not uncommon for widows to remarry these days! How can I control who General Sun wants to marry? My sister is General Sun's wife. Sister-in-law, no matter how loving you are, you can't control the housework in General Sun's room."

Until he was scolded by Xiao Qiao.

Only then did Xie realize that she had said the wrong thing again.

Ms. Xie still wanted to save her, so she squeezed over tightly and took Qiao Jingjing's hand:
"Sister-in-law, I didn't mean that. What I meant was, sister-in-law, your words have weight in Zhongmou's heart, and he listens to you.

Sister-in-law, we all know what you were capable of back then!When you followed your elder brother back to Wu County from Lujiang, you had Mrs. Hougu above you. Mrs. Hougu was your wife and you were your concubine. You were able to stand firm with your elder brother's favor. Sister-in-law, if you have such ability, you Just help me! "

At the end of his words, Xie had already reached a dead end.

Qiao Jingjing's face was cold.

Ms. Xie uncovered her old story and revealed Qiao Jingjing's experience of being struck down by five thunderbolts that she didn't even want to recall.

The remaining bit of intolerance in Qiao Jingjing's heart has dissipated.

Qiao Jingjing gently pushed Xie's hand away.

As Sun Quan wished, Qiao Jingjing was going to mediate with the second sibling today.
