Chapter 179

Meng Shisan heard what the three of them said, so he asked, "Then where is Mrs. Qiao now?"

"Earlier, after receiving the news that Qiao Sang was in danger, Mrs. Qiao rushed all the way, and she couldn't hold on when she reached the stone bridge, so she also went to Ye Ge to rest. Now, should I go to the stone bridge? I'm gone." Zeng Chongjin was different from Zeng Chongrong who always asked Qizhi to come here to ask if Meng Shisan had woken up while she was waiting for Meng Shisan to wake up. Knowing more, "By the way, when Mrs. Qiao was resting in Ye Ge, I invited Miss Xi to her wing to talk about it."

"Do you know what was said?" Meng Shisan felt that there was a high probability that he didn't know.

Sure enough, Zeng Chongjin shook his head: "I don't know. But I can probably guess that it was just asking Miss Xi about what happened before Qiao Sang fell into the water in the manor today."

"It's good to ask clearly." Zeng Chongrong's thinking is the same as that of Hu Qiao, and he feels that it is Qiao Sang's own responsibility, "In this way, Mrs. Qiao can take Qiao Sang's body back to the city honestly and arrange for the burial. business."

Dong Linglong continued, "It's not that simple."

She is ignorant about love, that's because she hasn't been enlightened yet, she was born in the capital and grew up in the capital. She likes to wield knives and guns, but it doesn't mean she doesn't know the tricks of a housewife. Although she doesn't fully understand, She also has a good understanding, and her intuition tells her that Mrs. Qiao's request for Xi Yanxie to talk about it definitely has a purpose.

Zeng Zhongjin agreed: "I also think it's impossible."

Compared with Dong Linglong, who has three-legged cat kung fu, her mind is more delicate, her intuition is sharper, and she is more certain about what Dong Linglong can detect.

Zeng Chongrong looked at Zeng Chongjin, then at Dong Linglong, and finally landed on Meng Shisan's face. Seeing Meng Shisan's pensive expression, it was clear that Cousin Meng agreed with what her sister and Miss Dong said, only she had strong limbs and a simple mind. She didn't notice something was wrong, or she didn't think in a complicated direction at all.

It is true that with her brain, she couldn't think of it.

but!
She turned to Dong Linglong, why couldn't she notice something that Miss Dong, a martial artist, could think of?

After being silent for a while, she felt that her mother was right. As for her, she had to find a son-in-law who would treat her sincerely and not bully her. In the jackal's den.

Zeng Chongrong stopped talking. She thought it would be better for her to just listen quietly.

Meng Shisan had not heard anything related to the Qiao Mansion at first. She only heard that Baozhu and she briefly talked about the wealthy families in the capital, the families of big and small officials, as well as the rising stars who had risen in recent years, and there were also many spring admirers among them. Replenish.

She clearly remembered that when Shangchun mentioned General Zhennan in Qiao's Mansion, he commented: "Qiao Sang's father is General Zhennan, who has been guarding the land of Lingnan for many years. It can be said that he has contributed a lot. Fortunately, he is clear and upright. , is a rare and good military general, and he is also clean and self-sufficient. He has been away for many years and has never taken concubines. He only has a pair of sons and daughters..."

At this point, she couldn't go on and sighed: "There is nothing we can do about good bamboo growing bad bamboo shoots."

"I heard that the Second Young Master Qiao rushed into the dense forest of Lingnan and died because he didn't listen to his subordinates' advice. After being bitten by a poisonous snake, he didn't believe in evil, so he was not treated in time, so he was not carried out of the dense forest. He will die in anger." Dong Linglong was fond of martial arts, so she inevitably paid more attention to military commanders. She also learned about the death of her eldest brother Qiao Sang last year in private.

"Young Master Qiao went to Lingnan to join the army. Even if General Qiao is his own father and takes good care of him, if he is not up to date, arrogant and complacent, and doesn't listen to others, then he will die under Shekou. You can't live by doing your own crimes." Meng Shisan also heard Baozhu say this, last year when the news of the second young master Qiao's death was reported back to the capital, the cause of his death followed, and the whole process seemed to be sent back to the capital deliberately by someone with a heart. The storyteller of Quexian Tower and Baolai Tower has been talking about this matter for a whole month.

Baozhu heard it from listening to books in the Bird Fairy Tower.

She originally thought that the storyteller might deviate from the facts, but later Shang Chun confirmed that there was no deviation, the facts were just as the storyteller said.

This shows that someone traveled thousands of miles to spread the truth about the death of Second Young Master Qiao back to the capital.

It probably has some purpose.

And Shangchun can prove it because Shangchun was still waiting in the upper room at that time. When General Qiao personally sent the eldest son's body back to Beijing to bury it in the ancestral grave, his grandfather went back to the government office and asked his grandmother, saying that he had to be with the eldest son. The aunt said, if you meet the daughters of the Qiao family, you must say a few words of comfort.

As a result, my grandfather couldn't help but say a few words to my grandmother about General Qiao's heroic character.

"I also heard my mother mention that Mrs. Qiao is also a very reasonable person." The Zeng and Qiao families are in the same capital and know each other somewhat. Zeng Chongjin also told what he heard from the Hu family about Mrs. Qiao's family. The impression said, "It's a pity that the son is not like the father, and the daughter is not like the mother. In just two years, both of them lead to an irreparable death situation."

"The sins committed by the children are the responsibility of the children." Zeng Chongrong was outgoing by nature. He endured it but couldn't help but said nothing at all. "I think it would be much better than avenging it on General Qiao and Mrs. Qiao."

"Having said that, they are parents who have lost a pair of children one after another. It is thousands of times more painful than letting them bear the blame for their children twice in two years." Meng Thirteen has never been a parent, but he has seen a lot when he came into the world. After seeing too much, he will naturally learn to think from other people's perspective and experience some of the grief of life, separation and death.

Both Dong Linglong and Zeng Chongjin nodded.

This is true.

Zeng Chongrong remembered the question she had asked before Meng Shisan woke up: "Now that Yaoyao has woken up and Qiao Sang's body has been recovered, do you think Mrs. Qiao will come to Hua Ge?"

She had just finished asking, and before the three people present, including Meng Shisanben, could answer her, there was a knock on the door of the wing.

None of the maids were there, and Meng Shisan didn't get up. He just said, "Who is it?"

"Miss Meng, this is Tong." Shopkeeper Tong replied respectfully outside the door.

Zeng Chongrong who was closest to the door of the wing immediately got up to open the door, Meng Shisan also got up and walked to the door, Zeng Chongjin and Dong Linglong followed behind.

As soon as he opened the door, Zeng Chongrong immediately asked: "What's wrong with the shopkeeper? Is dinner ready?"

Shopkeeper Tong was caught off guard when he was asked about the evening meal, he was taken aback and replied: "Not yet, but soon."

"Then why is the shopkeeper here?" Zeng Chongrong asked again.

Shopkeeper Tong looked at Meng Shisan: "Miss Meng, the second wife of the Qiao family is downstairs now. She wants to see Miss Meng, so she sent someone upstairs to ask."

Zeng Chongrong immediately covered his mouth and said in surprise, "I just said it and it's here!"

Shopkeeper Tong couldn't hear clearly, but he could roughly guess what Zeng Chongrong meant. After asking, he waited gently without saying anything.
