The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 227 Yulang wants to be a shield

After Ye Duanyi finished her toast, she sat down generously, and saw that there were already a lot of dishes in the bowl, all of which were her favorites on weekdays. Although they were light, they would whet one's appetite just by looking at them .Qiao Shaotang looked at Ye Duanyi tenderly, and the pampering in his eyes seemed to melt her, "Lady, if we talk about a toast, I should also toast you, thank you for giving me such a lovely child, thank you for these things Stay with me and take care of me every day."

Ye Duanyi glanced at Qiao Shaotang shyly, and slipped into his arms sadly, her face was dyed red, and she lightly beat Qiao Shaotang's body with her powder fist, "Shaotang, you are a bad person, how can you treat him in front of him?" In front of so many people, why do you say such stupid things?"

Hearing this, everyone in the hall couldn't help laughing. General Ye and his wife shook their heads slightly, watching the young couple make out as if they were watching the excitement.When Qiao Shaotang won Ye Duanyi back then, he really felt a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, thinking that she was not his ideal woman, without the slightest bit of gentleness and virtuousness.But after getting along for about a year, he saw Ye Duanyi's change, saw her simplicity and kindness, and saw his liking for her, so he was willing to be with her all his life.

Qiao Jiuxiu watched Ye Duanyi and Qiao Shaotang flirt with joy, and she was always envious of sister Duanyi. She finally kept her eyes open and got her eldest brother's real love.But she sighed softly again, sister Duanyi's happiness envied others, so what about her happiness?

"Ninth Sister, what's the matter with you?" Ye Yulang who was at the side noticed the little sadness in her heart, so he asked in a low voice.It's a pity that he was born as a general, and he usually speaks very loudly, so even if he lowered his voice, the people at the table could hear him clearly, and then all their eyes were on Qiao Jiuxiu.Qiao Jiuxiu rolled her eyes helplessly, feeling extremely embarrassed.But seeing Ye Yulang's innocent expression, he can't be blamed.

Ye Duanyi got out of Qiao Shaotang's arms, smiled softly, and looked very cute, "Madam, Jiumei is probably going to be sixteen soon. She was thinking about getting married just now. If she does, someone will marry her." It hurts." Qiao Shaotang scratched Ye Duanyi's nose, and accused her of deliberately teasing Qiao Jiuxiu, but he didn't say a single serious word, and from beginning to end, he looked at Ye Duanyi tenderly.The wife nodded slightly, Ye Duanyi's analysis also made some sense, Jiu girl is already sixteen, it's time to find someone else.Although it is said that there are many women who only get married when they are around 20 years old, but those are mostly crooked and can't find a good husband's family, so they procrastinate and don't want to marry.

Her family's nine girls are different from those women, she is so beautiful, and she is a first-rate female celebrity, and her temperament is quite good.So she nodded again, "What Duanyi said just now is indeed very reasonable. It's time to find a good home for Jiuyatou. I heard that the Wangpo in Dongjie Street is good. How many young masters ask her to be a matchmaker. I'll go Ask to see if she has any suitable candidates."

Qiao Jiuxiu's face turned pale when he heard his wife say this.She doesn't want to marry like this, and she may marry a man she has never met before. How can she let her wife be so casual about her life's events?So she quickly shook her head, "Ma'am, Jiumei is still young, and she still wants to stay by your side for a few more years to accompany you well. Can the marriage be postponed later?"

Qiao Jiuxiu knew that such a day would come sooner or later, but she sincerely hoped that such a day would not come so soon, as she was not yet mentally prepared.The wife shook her head and rejected Qiao Jiuxiu's request, "Jiu girl, what do you know, you are already sixteen, not too young, if you don't marry again, it will be difficult to find a good husband in the future. At my age, I have already married the master."

Qiao Jiuxiu bit her lip, knowing that she had no way to refute the meaning of the wife. It seemed that the wife would tell someone that she would get married soon, but her heart had already been placed on Chen Chu, but they seemed to have nothing to do with each other. possible.Speaking of Chen Chu, Qiao Jiuxiu shook her head slightly again. Although the misunderstanding between them had been clarified, they always felt that there was some rift between them. For example, Ye Duanyi's birth was a very big matter. He must know that if it was changed to the past , he was afraid that he would pay a direct visit and find a reason to meet him, but this time, he did not appear.

Of course, Qiao Jiuxiu never expected that Chen Chu didn't show up, not because he didn't want to come, and even when he was free, he was planning how to meet Qiao Jiuxiu, but General Ye is also in Qiao's house today, and he doesn't want to confront General Ye for the time being. And seeing General Ye, his identity might be revealed, so he didn't want to let Qiao Jiuxiu know his identity so early.So I can only endure it.

"I don't know who my wife is going to marry Jiumei to?" General Ye seemed to be interested in this too. He glanced at Ye Yulang beside him. He knew that Ye Yulang had liked Qiao Jiuxiu for a long time. The girl's impression is also very good. This girl is not only smart, but also kind. She is indeed very suitable to be her daughter-in-law.No wonder Yulang fell in love with her at first sight. "My family's Yulang only married one regular wife. If the wife is willing, she can let Jiumei be the concubine. The two families will get closer together. I don't know what the wife wants?"

The wife frowned. To be honest, Ye Yulang was not the ideal candidate in her mind. Ye Duanyi married into Qiao's house. They have already established a very strong alliance with Ye's family. There is no need to add another Qiao Jiuxiu, and there are so many in the capital. There are a lot of relationships that need to be maintained for high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Jiu Yatou needs to marry one of them to establish a new set of relationships, so that the Qiao Mansion will not be defeated in a single blow in the turbulent waves.

For the wife, the concubine is just a pawn used to maintain the relationship, whether it is worth it or not, whether it is suitable or not.However, if he directly rejected General Ye, he guessed that General Ye would feel embarrassed, so she could only look at Qiao Jiuxiu in a blink of an eye. She believed that with Qiao Jiuxiu's intelligence, she would be able to understand her eyes.

Qiao Jiuxiu felt the cold eyes of his wife, she knew what his wife was planning, and she really didn't want to marry Ye Yulang, once Hou Men entered the deep sea, once she became Ye Yulang's wife, then Chen Chu would really have nothing to do with her half possible.

Although, they are not possible now.But she still felt that she couldn't betray her heart.

"Thank you General for your love, but Jiumei really doesn't have the slightest idea for your son, and I hope the general can understand and take it back." Qiao Jiuxiu lowered her head slightly, and obviously heard a long sigh from Ye Yulang beside her.

"General Ye, you heard that too. Jiumei doesn't like it, so I have no choice but to thank you for your kindness." The wife hurriedly followed Qiao Jiuxiu's words and brought up the topic, "By the way, Duanyi's child , what name do you think the general should call? Do you have any comments?"

General Ye smiled slightly, obviously very interested. Although the wife's fundamental purpose was to change the subject, it seemed that the two elders were very interested in this question.

"Nine Sisters." Ye Yulang said suddenly, in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "If one day you want to marry someone you don't like, you can send someone to the General's Mansion to find me, and I'll go to the following immediately. I will marry you, don't worry, after I get married, I will definitely commit no crimes, and when you meet someone you really like, I will give you a divorce letter and give you back your freedom."

Qiao Jiuxiu looked at Ye Yulang in a daze, never thought that he would say such a thing, and felt warm for a moment.

A few days have passed since the dinner party, but Qiao Jiuxiu still couldn't calm down.What Ye Yulang said to her during the dinner moved her very much.Although there is no way to hold hands with him in this life, she definitely regards him as her best friend.Just thinking that his wife has been helping her find a new home for the past few days, she feels upset when she thinks about it, but she can't go against her wife's wishes.Jinxiu handed the food to Qiao Jiuxiu, "Miss, what's the matter with you recently, it seems that your appetite has not been very good, but you have to eat this food, otherwise it will be bad if your body is broken."

Qiao Jiuxiu shook her head, thinking that she was going to marry someone she had never met before, she felt very uncomfortable, how could she still be in the mood to eat?But it's not easy to tell Jinxiu about this matter, she can't help anyway, so there is no need to worry with her.Jinxiu sat down angrily, and muttered, "Miss, you don't tell Jinxiu, maybe you can't trust Jinxiu, or think that Jinxiu is useless and can't help you share your troubles?"

Qiao Jiuxiu knew that Jinxiu had misunderstood her, so she could only express her annoyance. She didn't want to find someone to marry. "Jinxiu, if someone tells you that he is willing to marry you, but if you don't want to, he will do nothing wrong. After you meet the right man, he will allow you to be free. How would you think?"

"God, Miss, who told you this?" Jinxiu shook her head slightly, her face full of disbelief, "Miss, that person must like you. And he likes you so much, otherwise, she wouldn't have made such a move." Such a sacrifice. I never thought someone would say something like that."

Qiao Jiuxiu hastily covered it up, knowing that Jinxiu can never keep secrets, she will definitely tell Hongxiu later, she doesn't want others to know about this, if it gets to his wife's ears, she should be punished again . "No, I just made a hypothesis. Well, how can there be such an infatuated man in this world? Don't talk foolishly."

Jinxiu slightly flattened her mouth. Although the young lady looked very suspicious, she was very reasonable when she said this. Indeed, there should not be such a person in this world.So it should be just that he thought too much, and then sighed softly, "Yeah, how could there be such an infatuated man in this world, I think even if there is no way to accept his heart, he will be moved for a long time because of these words .”

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, she was indeed very moved by Ye Yulang's words, but she was moved, but she didn't know how to respond to his sincerity.I didn't want to continue this topic, but I saw Hongxiu striding over, "Miss, there are some young ladies in their early twenties outside the house who want to find you."
