SEC Chapter 369: Mrs. Jiao has to take the blame
Chapter 369: Mrs. Jiao has to take the blame
Mrs. Jiao couldn't make fun of Qiao anymore and could only change the subject.
She looked at her eldest daughter-in-law and asked, "How are your preparations going? Are we going to have the feast?"
Her eldest daughter-in-law immediately replied with a smile: "It's time to start the meal."
"I set up a banquet in the backyard and invited a troupe to perform."
She stood up and gestured to everyone, "Ladies and ladies, please follow me."
Then she took the initiative to go forward and support her mother-in-law.
Mrs. Jiao lost face, which would make her very unhappy.
He didn't want to talk to anyone, so he supported his daughter-in-law and walked in front.
Everyone stood up and followed behind.
His expression didn't change much at this moment, but his mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts.
They were surprised and not surprised.
What was surprising was that Madam Jiao was defeated so quickly by Princess Yong'an.
Now not only did he fail to punish Qiao Ye, but he also lost face.
Not surprisingly, they had always known that Princess Yong'an was arrogant and willful.
In the entire capital, apart from the two in the imperial palace, there was no one else she was wary of or afraid of.
With the support of the Queen Mother, no lady or daughter wants to offend Princess Yong'an.
So this time when Madam Jiao faced off against Princess Yong'an, Madam Jiao was completely defeated.
But given Mrs. Jiao's personality, she won't let it go after losing face in public.
Although he cannot defeat Princess Yong'an, he can find opportunities to cause trouble for Qiao Ye.
After all, Princess Yong'an can't always be by Qiao Ye's side.
Therefore, many ladies and young ladies who had a good impression of Qiao Ye cast sympathetic glances at her.
Qiao Ye had very sensitive senses, so he naturally discovered it.
I can guess what they are thinking.
But she is not afraid, there is always a way to resolve it.
The group followed Mrs. Jiao and her mother-in-law towards the backyard.
As Qiao Ye was walking, she noticed that Miss Wu was pushed next to her.
Then he sensitively smelled a strange fragrance on the other person.
She couldn't help but look at Miss Wu.
When Miss Wu saw Qiao Ye looking at her, she gave a friendly smile.
He also took the initiative to greet Qiao Ye, "Hello, Miss Qiao!"
Her family broke off the engagement, which had offended Mrs. Jiao.
The other party must now regard her as a thorn in their side, so she is not afraid of offending the other party.
Moreover, she heard from her eldest brother that he had secretly formed an alliance with Qiao Ye and his wife to deal with her stepmother and her father.
The enemy of my enemy is naturally my friend.
Her brother also told her that it would be best for her to stay with Qiao Ye today.
If anything happens, she and Qiao Ye can take care of each other.
That's why when someone pushed her just now, she took the opportunity to be "pushed" next to Qiao Ye.
Qiao Ye also gave her a gentle smile, "Hello, Miss Wu!"
She took the initiative to chat, "When I saw you, I felt like I had known you for a long time."
Miss Wu smiled and said, "I feel the same way."
Qiao Ye was about the same age as her, and she had heard a lot about Qiao Ye before.
So I have always been curious and admired Qiao Ye.
When I saw Qiao Ye today, I found that he was better and more powerful than I imagined.
After all, if it were someone else, they would have surrendered to Mrs. Jiao long ago. How could they dare to fight back?
She really likes women with the same personality as Qiao Ye.
No wonder Princess Yong'an likes him so much. She had a good impression of Qiao Ye when they first met.
Then the two of them started chatting as they walked.
Others didn't think much about it. They just thought that the two of them were of similar age and were both disliked by Mrs. Jiao, so they could get along well.
Wen Xianglian looked at the two people chatting happily from a distance, with a gleam in her eyes.
As expected, these two troublesome and annoying girls can play together.
Now the two of them seem to get along so well, and if they plot against each other later, no one will suspect them.
Very good, God really helps them.
When they reached the backyard, Miss Wu originally wanted to go sit with her stepmother.
Wen Xianglian took the initiative to come over.
She looked at her with a loving motherly look and said, "I see that you and Miss Qiao get along very well. Why don't you sit at the same table with her?"
"Girls your age should be more able to chat."
As for her, it would be better if she didn't sit at the same table with Qiao Ye.
She was afraid that the crazy girl would suddenly target her and accidentally expose her identity.
Miss Wu guessed that her stepmother would not be content today.
However, he did not expect that the other party would let himself and Qiao Ye sit.
What play is this about?
But it just suited her.
So she said obediently: "Okay!"
After Wen Xianglian arranged for Miss Wu, she took her younger daughter to the next table.
Sitting together with a few ladies with whom I have a good relationship.
Qiao Ye pulled Miss Wu to sit down, and then people at the table started to sit down.
So she took the opportunity to whisper to Miss Wu: "If a maid or someone else splashes tea or soup on us later."
"And let us go change our clothes, and we will act together."
"There's something wrong with you. They will definitely target you."
When she was pulling Miss Wu, she leaned close to her and whispered.
Soon a maid came to serve her, so she didn't continue the topic after she finished speaking.
Miss Wu was stunned at first, then became a little nervous.
She nodded to Qiao Ye, "Okay."
Qiao Ye said there was something wrong with her, but she didn't know what it was.
But her brother had told her that the only person she could trust when attending the banquet was Qiao Ye.
So now she believed what Qiao Ye said.
But there was a maid standing behind her and people were sitting down one after another, so she didn't dare to ask in detail.
But I figured out some meaning from Qiao Ye's words.
For example, a maid might spill dirt on their clothes and then take them to change them.
It’s hard to say what will happen on the way to change clothes.
Sure enough, her stepmother and Mrs. Jiao both had bad intentions.
The banquet dishes were served quickly one by one.
The yard at the backyard is very big and not only was a banquet set up there.
A stage was set up in front and the troupe began to perform on stage.
Ladies and girls, you can eat and watch the show at the same time.
After eating, the banquet will be cleared away and the chairs will be replaced, and everyone will sit down and continue watching the show.
At the end of the banquet, everyone was served a bowl of sweet soup.
A maid came towards Qiao Ye and the others carrying a tray.
As she walked to the front, she accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt.
Then he pounced towards Qiao Ye and Miss Wu.
Qiao Ye quickly pulled Miss Wu up and avoided the maid who was falling over.
But the sweet soup in the tray spilled out, and a lot of it got on Miss Wu's body.
The maid was horrified when she saw this, and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "This servant did not mean it, please forgive me, Madam and Miss."
She looked like she was about to cry.
Because of this incident, all the ladies and girls at the banquet looked over here.
Qiao Ye and Miss Wu haven't spoken yet.
Wei Fenghua's face turned cold, "Who would believe you if you said you didn't do it on purpose?"
"It's really funny. Just now in the flower hall, your wife didn't find fault with my daughter."
"Plus, I heard before that Madam Jiao said she didn't like Miss Wu."
"It didn't work before, and now you want to throw sweet soup on them."
"Why, are you trying to ruin my daughter and Miss Wu's looks?"
She had talked with Xiao Ye before, and they both guessed that Madam Jiao and Wen Xianglian would definitely cause trouble today.
Now that she's really acting up, I naturally can't just change clothes or something like that.
Mrs. Jiao has to take the blame for this even if she doesn't want to.
(The previous setting was Madam Jiao and the Jiao family, and I wrote it that way, then I got confused and wrote Madam Liang in the next two chapters. Later I realized that I had written it wrong, so I changed it all to Madam Jiao. I would like to explain it here~)
