Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 573
"I..." Qiao Yun bit his lip slightly, looking embarrassed.

Zhao Xiwei said in relief: "If you don't think about it, don't say it first. It's the same when you want to say it."

She has learned to respect each other's reservations.

Everyone will have things that they don't want others to know, whether it's friends, relatives, or even between husband and wife, there will be times when they want to keep a distance.

In the past, she liked to get angry with Li Xuanye because of these things, but after all, she was too childish...

She thought about it in a daze until Qiao Yunqian's voice brought her back to reality again: "Sister Wei, what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing!" Zhao Xi smiled apologetically, "What did you just say?"

Only then did Qiao Yunqian explain her affairs in detail: "My father forced me to marry again. No, this time it was even more extreme. He forced me to recruit a son-in-law!"

"Didn't the son agree that we would open a teahouse together? My father was unwilling at first, saying that it would be difficult for the girl's family to get married after she showed her face. Later, because His Royal Highness Jin came forward, he finally let go. But who Knowing that the teahouses are all set up now, he has a new idea, saying that since I am determined to do business, I can just hire him a son-in-law who can do business. He also said it is for my own good, saying He doesn't care about how my business is doing well, as long as I give birth to a son early to support the Qiao family—Sister Wei, tell me, why am I working so hard to learn my skills just to give birth to his son-in-law? child?"

Zhao Xiwei frowned when he heard this: "Your father is also a man who has traveled all over the world, why is he so stubborn about your affairs?"

"Yes." Qiao Yunqian was even more aggrieved: "This is not the most annoying thing, what makes me the most angry is, do you know who he is in love with?"

"Who is it?" Zhao Xiwei couldn't help being curious, what kind of person would Qiao Yunqian be so resistant to?

"You really don't know the slightest bit." Qiao Yunqian gave her a strange look, and said in an awkward tone, "It's your cousin."

"My cousin?" Zhao Xiwei was at a loss for a moment, then raised his eyebrows: "Could it be the one from the second uncle's house?"

Uncle Zhao has been doing business abroad all year round, and that cousin heard that he also traveled all over the world, and after gaining some knowledge, he never thought that he would agree to be his son-in-law...

But thinking about it again, the Qiao family has power, power and money, and there is only such an only daughter under her knees. If she becomes a married man, she will be able to inherit all the family property and connections of the Qiao family. good deal.

"Yes." Qiao Yunqian's eyes showed a trace of disgust, "Aside from other things, your second aunt, cousin, and your grandmother, which one is easy to get along with? Oh, and your second uncle, What kind of responsible man is he again? I heard that he is about to marry Mrs. Pei, such a large group of people, which one can I bear?"

She spoke in one breath, and then realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, hurriedly lowered her tone, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was too anxious."

"It's nothing, I understand you..." Zhao Xiwei felt the same way.

The Zhao family members are more calculating than the other. As the Zhao family, she wants to escape, so it is not surprising that Qiao Yunqian will have strong resistance.

She thought for a moment, then asked, "Then what are you going to do?"

"Me?" Qiao Yunqian looked firm, "I would not agree to it even if I was killed. Yes, my mother only gave birth to me, and my father has no son under his knees. But I am also a living person of flesh and blood, am I not His tool for carrying on the family line..."

There was a hint of unwillingness in her eyes: "If he wants a son to continue the incense, will he ruin my happiness?"

"Yunqian..." Zhao Xiwei suddenly felt that this matter was a bit tricky.

It is said that it is difficult for an upright official to decide on housework. She is a princess and Qiao An is a courtier. If she intervenes in this matter, she will offend the courtiers—not to mention that she cannot do such things, even the crown prince or even the emperor. good to do.

But if she doesn't help, will she just watch her good friend fall into the abyss?
When she was in a dilemma, Qiao Yunqian suddenly sighed again: "Sister Wei, there is one more important thing - I have nowhere to go now."

Zhao Xi frowned slightly: "What?" He was taken aback for a moment, and his expression became even more surprised, "You didn't sneak out from home, did you?"

"I—" Qiao Yunqian was a little embarrassed.

Zhao Xi gasped slightly: "You..."

There is no most chaotic, only more chaotic, this matter is too troublesome!

"Sister Wei, I have no other choice, please take me in for a few days, okay?" Qiao Yunqian hugged her arm, her eyes full of begging.

"Just a few days... When I take care of the teahouse, I can live in—"

"How can this be done!" She just got up, and Zhao Xiwei objected, "There are people coming and going in the teahouse. There are all kinds of people from all corners of the country. If you live in a daughter's house, even if you don't think about your own reputation, you can do it. Don't you think about your own safety?"

Zhao Xiwei is different from Qiao Yunqian. She has experienced the warmth and coldness of the world since she was a child, and the first problem she encountered was how to protect her own life.

"You throw your hands like this and run out without thinking about anything. Although you have achieved the purpose of resisting your father, if you hurt yourself, isn't this killing eight hundred enemies and losing one thousand?"

"I..." Although Qiao Yunqian is quick-witted, she is a delicate young lady who has never considered this issue at all. When Zhao Xiwei reminded her, she was a little dumbfounded, and asked with a handkerchief: "Then, sister Wei, what are you doing?" Say what should I do?"

This stopped Zhao Xiwei from asking.

In fact, she also experienced this kind of pain. At that time, she was desperate and escaped from home.

Why didn't she also think that she would rather die than be manipulated like this?

Thinking of what happened that day, she still feels chills in her heart.

The torrential rain poured down, and she fainted on an empty street corner.

If Li Xuanye hadn't appeared suddenly and brought her back to the East Palace, she wouldn't know what kind of life she was living now...

After all, he was her savior.

Realizing that she started to lose her mind again, she suddenly felt a little depressed: This is the first time, why can you think of him even for a little irrelevant thing?

"Sister Wei, did I cause you trouble?" Seeing that she had been silent, Qiao Yunqian suddenly lost her previous courage, "You really can't help, and I won't blame you. OK."

"No, no." Zhao Xiwei withdrew his thoughts, and pressed Qiao Yunqian's shoulder in a hurry to comfort him, "I was just thinking about how I can help you."

"Then think about it carefully!" Qiao Yunqian's dim eyes suddenly brightened, "As long as you have a way, I will listen to you!"

Zhao Xi nodded slightly, while thinking about how to solve the problem, he comforted her slowly: "Don't worry, your father is stubborn, but he definitely loves you in his heart."
