The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 189

Seeing that Chen Chu kept looking at her, Qiao Jiuxiu also felt embarrassed, so she asked tentatively, "Well, why do you keep looking at me like this? I also know that I have changed a lot. I clearly said before that I don't want Qinglian. I don’t need you to take action, I will solve it in my own way. But I didn’t expect you to take action in the end, will you feel very disappointed, I have become a vicious woman. "

Qiao Jiuxiu sighed, she has been in a bad mood these days, first because of Qinglian's incident, she felt like a different person, and then Qiao Shanxiu's incident made her worry about her future marriage .Chen Chu shook his head, and patted her on the head reassuringly, "How could it be? Don't forget that I have always agreed with you to kill Qinglian and end the fight in a simple and straightforward way."

"However, I still think I'm too cruel. When Qinglian left, her eyes were full of resignation, and I felt chills watching." Qiao Jiuxiu bit her lips. She never said these words to anyone, and wanted to bury them in her heart forever. It became an eternal secret in her heart, but for some reason, she couldn't help but tell all this when facing Chen Chu.Chen Chu shook his head, thinking that people come and go here, it is indeed not a place to talk, and half of the dignitaries in the capital know his true identity, he still wants to maintain his sense of mystery in front of Qiao Jiuxiu, so he talks to Qiao Jiuxiu Said, "Xiu'er, if it's convenient, let's find a quiet place and have a conversation."

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, her cheeks would still blush because of that faint Xiu'er.So the two went to the pavilion behind the rockery one after the other. This place is very hidden, few people come here, and everyone is still busy with Qiao Shanxiu's affairs today, so they don't even notice this place.Qiao Jiuxiu asked Chen Chu to sit down, "The maids are busy in and out of the hall, so I won't serve you tea, don't mind."

Chen Chu shook her head, as long as she could see Qiao Jiuxiu, it was enough. As for drinking tea, when could she not drink it?The two sat down, and Chen Chu continued what he had just said, "Xiu'er, you think it's cruel that you killed Qinglian. But I don't think so, you only did it to protect yourself, and no one can blame you .”

Qiao Jiuxiu glanced at Chen Chu blankly, the meaning in his words was clearly approving of his actions, and Chen Chu continued to say, "For me, the most gratifying thing is to see that you can protect yourself without Don't worry me any more."

Chen Chu is telling the truth. God knows that last time in the temple, when Qiao Jiuxiu talked about being bullied by Qinglian, he was almost worried to death. If it wasn’t for the fact that Qiao Jiuxiu was not yet married, he would have gone to ask the emperor Brother pointed out marriage, and brought Qiao Jiuxiu back to the mansion, so as not to let her suffer any more grievances.

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, slightly relieved in her heart.Chen Chu raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Xiu'er, don't cry in the future, it really hurts to see it. But I remember, you probably don't have any friendship with Qiao Shanxiu."

There is a first-class spy in Chen Chu's mansion, and he only needs one sentence to ask for Qiao Jiuxiu's information.According to the reports from the spies, Qiao Jiuxiu has a very good relationship with Qiao Qixiu, and Ye Duanyi, Jinxiu, and Hongxiu are all her trustworthy friends. As for the remaining sisters in Qiao's house, the relationship is not very good. Sometimes they will be ostracized.Logically speaking, Qiao Shanxiu's departure would not make her so sad, but he heard that she was very drunk last night.

This is really distressing.

"I don't have any friendship with my third sister." Qiao Jiuxiu sighed softly, "But she is my older sister after all, and it's reasonable for me to feel depressed when she left at such a young age. Of course, this is not the main reason, the main reason is because……"

Qiao Jiuxiu sighed, what was she doing, how could she share her inner sorrow with a man whom she didn't know very well?And even if she spoke out all the irritability in her heart, Chen Chu couldn't share it for her.

"Because of what?" Seeing that Qiao Jiuxiu had been silent for a long time, Chen Chu asked worriedly.Qiao Jiuxiu still shook her head, "It's nothing, it's really nothing, I'm just in a bad mood recently. Don't think too much about it."

"Xiu'er, you look like this, can I not think too much?" Chen Chu held Qiao Jiuxiu's hand and asked very seriously, "Xiu'er, you must have something on your mind, if you still treat me as a friend, you Just tell me what’s on your mind, and I’m sure I can help.”

Chen Chu spoke very seriously. Although he was not a single-handed man in the capital, he finally had certain power and could help Qiao Jiuxiu solve the problem.And for the sake of Qiao Jiuxiu, he doesn't care whether he goes to the mountain of swords or to the frying pan.Even if it is the snow lotus on Tianshan Mountain, if Qiao Jiuxiu wants it, as long as it is a word, he will pick it off for her.

Qiao Jiuxiu shook her head. Chen Chu really had nothing to do with this matter, but she might feel better if she said it, so she nodded and said, "I don't know how to speak about this matter. The third sister hanged herself because she couldn't bear the humiliation after marrying into the Wen family." Died. Madam also said at the dinner last night that she would betroth Seventh Sister to the Third Prince. I am afraid that one day I will marry someone, marry someone I don't like, and then I will be miserable for the rest of my life. "

When Qiao Jiuxiu said this, she sighed deeply again. If this day really comes, she doesn't blame her wife or that man. She can only blame herself for being born into this era. This is the life of a woman in this era. Sadly, her strength alone is too insignificant, and she can only accept the arrangement of fate.Chen Chu chuckled, it turned out that Qiao Jiuxiu was actually worried about this problem, and there was no need to worry about this problem at all.

He would marry her and naturally give her the happiness she expected.

"What are you laughing at?" Qiao Jiuxiu gave Chen Chu a puzzled look, knowing that as a man, he would never be able to understand the anguish in his heart. Men can have three wives and four concubines, and pursue their true love, but women can't. Once you get married, whether you like it or not, your whole life is determined by others, and there is no way to change it, you can only succumb to a powerful fate.Qiao Jiuxiu sighed, "Maybe I shouldn't tell you these things, because these are not things you understand."

"No, I understand." Chen Chu interrupted Qiao Jiuxiu, "I know that for you women, finding a good man is very important. But believe me, you will definitely find a good man."

"Impossible." Qiao Jiuxiu sighed. Although she is naive, she still has no illusions. "The other half in my heart, it doesn't matter what I say, but what my wife says. She will definitely point me at will." It doesn't matter which dignitary you are, how old you are, what kind of temperament you have, and how many wives you have in the family, as long as it is good for the Qiao Mansion. Do you think that under such standards, I can still gain myself? Do you like love?"

Qiao Jiuxiu shook her head and sighed deeply. Sure enough, her worries were beyond the comprehension of an outsider.

Chen Chu shook his head, the smile on his face deepened, and he couldn't help but want to tease Qiao Jiuxiu, "Then do you have someone you like? You can ask him to propose marriage, as long as he comes to propose marriage, the wife can't help it Yet?"

Qiao Jiuxiu shook her head, as if she hadn't met a man who made her heart flutter.And if the wife doesn't like it, she can simply refuse, so why should she offend the wife for such a thing.So he sighed again, as if he had already accepted his fate.

"I don't have anyone I like." She shook her head slightly, "And, even if there was, my wife would not agree."

She smiled bitterly, she really didn't know why she had to talk so much to Chen Chu today, and what was even more rare was that he listened to them all.Chen Chu chuckled, and suddenly changed his expression, full of seriousness, there was a question he had always wanted to know, and he was finally going to ask her today, "Xiu'er, if you marry me in the future, Will you be happy?"

This question is serious and serious, but in order not to put pressure on Qiao Jiuxiu, his words seemed to be joking.

Qiao Jiuxiu was slightly taken aback, why did she suddenly ask this question?She has always been very slow in love, so she hasn't seen Chen Chu's liking for her, so she can only shake her head slightly, thinking it's just a joke, "How could I marry you. My wife won't agree."

Regarding Chen Chu's identity, last time Jinxiu came back and said that Chen Chu was an aide in the Ninth Prince's mansion, and he should be able to talk to him. If he was an ordinary family, he would naturally like such an identity very much, but his wife might not like it .She thinks that the daughter of Qiao's family must marry someone with a prominent background, and there are not enough staff.

Chen Chu shook his head, how dare his wife disobey an imperial decree at that time.However, he continued to ask Qiao Jiuxiu's question just now, "Then if my wife agrees, are you willing to marry me?"

It was the first time he used a soliciting tone, and it was also the first time he waited for Qiao Jiuxiu's answer with an uneasy heart.Qiao Jiuxiu frowned even deeper, and suddenly a terrible idea popped up in her heart.

Perhaps, Chen Chu wasn't joking anymore.

She hurriedly stood up in a panic, she was completely unprepared, and her mood was very confused recently, she didn't know how to answer Chen Chu's question, so she had to run away in despair.

Looking at the back of Qiao Jiuxiu leaving, the smile on Chen Chu's face deepened, but he didn't mean to blame Qiao Jiuxiu. She didn't think about some problems well, so naturally he wouldn't force her to make a decision.But he was looking forward to it more and more, on the wedding night, when Qiao Jiuxiu found out that he was the Ninth Prince, how cute the expression on Qiao Jiuxiu's face would be.

Qiao Jiuxiu ran a long way before she let out a little breath and patted her chest lightly, feeling like her heart was about to jump out, thinking that the time should be almost up, so she had to go back to the main hall first.
