After Qiaowei became pregnant, she had difficulty moving and was particularly lethargic in the second trimester. Mrs. Chen was afraid that the maids would not take good care of her, so she took her to the east chamber to raise the fetus, so that she could take care of her personally at night. Daily meals were also taken in the east chamber.

Qiao Wan was still in a critical period in the first three months, and Mrs. Chen wanted to keep a balanced bowl of water, so she often came to the main house to give advice.

Seeing Qiao Wan and Long Xiang fighting, Chen's sharp eyes were full of reproach, as if to say, you are a wife and a mother, why are you still acting like a doll?

Long Xiang is now the lord of Hefei. It is impossible for Mrs. Chen to blame her son-in-law. She can only give Qiao Wan a wink to remind him.

At the dinner table at night, Mrs. Chen couldn't help nagging her, but for Long Xiang's sake, she didn't bother too much with Qiao Wan, but changed the subject to talk about Qiao Wan.

"Since Cao Cao withdrew from Huainan, Wei'er has been staying in Xincheng all day long and is too busy to go home. He hasn't been back here for several days. Yun Qi went to Xincheng for inspection three days ago and must have met Wei'er. He has lost weight.

Or is it dark?”

"The food on the construction site is guaranteed, but I haven't seen him lose weight. However, with the sun being so strong recently, it is inevitable to get tanned, and he will recover in the winter."

After answering, Long Xiang sighed with emotion. In ancient times, mistresses not only had great power, but also had the responsibility to prosper the family. All their children had to worry about it, so they could rest assured to let the masters work outside.

Mrs. Chen nodded slightly after hearing this: "It will be good if I can recover in the winter. Yi'er will be seventeen in the second half of the year. His marriage is not yet planned. If Yun Qi finds someone suitable, remember to help me pay more attention."

Long Xiang thought for a while and replied sternly: "If my grandma is in a hurry to marry my third brother, I can only find a good girl in Hefei to get married. But if you are willing to wait a little longer, I promise to find him a girl from a rich or famous family."

female."

"There's no need to worry, I'm only seventeen years old."

After hearing what Long Xiang said, Mrs. Chen immediately changed her tune and added with a smile: "Then I have to worry about it. Besides, I see that your words are well-spoken. Can you take the time to express your words to Wan'er?"

"This" Long Xiang said with a confused look on his face: "My third brother and I are of the same generation. It's best to change our cousins. There are Lu Zijing and You Zhengping who are the most talented people in Hefei City. In addition, Chen Yuanlong is also seeking medical treatment in the city. Who do you want to see?"

It will be all right"

Mrs. Chen was immediately interested. The Chen family in Xuzhou was a wealthy family. She asked with a little excitement: "Are Yunqi and Chen Yuanlong familiar with each other?"

"We only met recently, but we had a drink in the afternoon and had a good chat."

Long Xiang frowned slightly after speaking. He recalled Chen Deng's words in the afternoon, and a trace of trouble instantly climbed onto his forehead.

"I think Chen Yuanlong is the best, and Zijing is the same generation as Yun Qi. Although you Zhengping is also famous, you are a bit too frivolous. I'm worried that Miao'er will imitate you."

Mrs. Chen's heart suddenly became alive. She guessed that the wealthy family mentioned by Long Xiang was the Chen family. If Qiao Ni could marry a daughter of the Chen family, what would happen to Qiao Ni in the rest of his life?

At this time, she was still focusing on the nobles of the wealthy family, but she didn't know that the real nobles of the Qiao family were right in front of her. Qiao Min's subsequent achievements were completely influenced by Long Xiang.

After hearing Chen's choice, Long Xiang nodded and said: "Chen Yuanlong will be recuperated for about ten days. I'm going to have roast pork as a farewell meal for him. Then I'll call my third brother back in advance and let Chen Yuanlong give his name to him as a member of the public."

"Very good, very good." Chen said like a chicken pecking at rice.

When Qiao Wan heard that she was going to eat roast pork again, she clapped her hands in a welcoming gesture: "Okay, I can eat my husband's roasted pork belly and roasted ribs again."

"How old are you? You should be more reserved."

Mrs. Chen stared at Qiao Wan, then turned to Qiao Wei and joked: "I think you still need to be in charge of this family. Your sister's personality has not changed at all, she is still so out of the ordinary."

Qiao Wei looked at Long Xiang with eyes full of tenderness: "Long Lang likes his second sister to be free and easy, and to do as she pleases. We sisters don't care about each other."

Mrs. Chen shook her head gently: "You all just pamper her."

After the family finished dinner, Long Xiang stood up after sitting for a while, planning to go to the front yard to sleep.

Qiao Wan held his hand and acted coquettishly: "You have to go back so early? My husband will accompany me back to the room to talk."

"Xiaowan, you are in a critical period now, so don't act recklessly."

When Ms. Chen heard this, she thought it was okay and said to herself, "Second girl, you have a straightforward personality, so don't hook up with your own man." When she reminded Qiao Wan, she was also reminding Long Xiang.

"Mother, what are you talking about?" Qiao Wan pouted in defense: "I want to hear my husband tell stories, but I didn't even finish the last episode of The West Chamber."

"What's the west wing? You've already moved out of the west wing and into the main room."

"Mother." Qiao Wei interrupted Chen to explain: "It's not the West Wing here, it's a story Long Lang made up when he had nothing to do. I've heard it's quite interesting."

"Yunqi also makes up stories? I never saw it before."

Mrs. Chen was surprised and affirmed, thinking that it was just because of your bad background. If you were born into a wealthy family like the Chen family in Xuzhou, you would have a good future even if you didn't go to the battlefield to fight.

It's just that it's good now. Hefei is a local tyrant in the separatist power. Even Sun Ce and Cao Cao can't do anything about it. It seems that he is not much worse than Chen Deng.

"It's all nonsense."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Husband, please don't be modest. It's very interesting."

Seeing that Long Xiang was so humble, Qiao Wan expressed his feelings very objectively. Long Xiang smiled and did not continue, saying in his heart that this was all accumulated over thousands of years. If I were to copy the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I would not know how Jiangdong Erqiao would adapt it.

Reasonable.

Back in the main hall, Long Xiang stared at Qiao Wan with suspicion on his face.

The story of Romance of the West Chamber was originally not a long one, and he had finished it all in one night. Qiao Wan deliberately said that he wanted to listen to his story because he should have something to say to him.

The little girl is pregnant and stupid, but she still retains her intelligence.

"Xiaojun, do you want to tell me something?"

"My husband came back from the inn today. What troubles do you seem to have? I saw you frowning in the middle hall and just now in the east chamber. Can you tell me about it? Maybe I can help you with the details? Look.

Let’s see if we can help my husband solve his problems. If it’s a particularly important military plane, forget it.”

Long Xiang said in his heart, good fellow, the second young lady is really smart. With such a smart wife, if he doesn't want his family to worry in the future, he seems to have to pay attention to his expression management at all times.

After thinking for a moment, Long Xiang decided not to hide it from Qiao Wan, as hiding it would make her more worried.

"Hefei is the throat of Huainan. No matter whether Cao Cao goes south or Sun Quan goes north, it is impossible for both sides to bypass Hefei. I knew it when I left Yuan Shu, but I still chose this place to settle down. Xiaojun, do you know why?"

"I heard you say that Hefei was an empty city at that time, and my husband chose it out of helplessness. Did you do it on purpose?"

"certainly."

Long Xiang nodded slightly: "I chose Hefei because of its strategic location. I promised to help a hero support the Han Dynasty. Cao Cao and Sun Quan were both obstacles to him. Only by staying in Hefei to contain him could I buy him a chance.

."

Qiao Wan blurted out: "The hero is Liu Xuande?"
