Wen Luyao discovered that a few words spoken downstairs could be heard from the window of Yunqiao's balcony.
While Yun Qiao was changing clothes and combing her hair, Aunt Wen got bored and ran to eavesdrop. She actually heard a few words, turned to Yun Qiao and said, "Your mother is going to the old lady's house."
Yun Qiao put down the wooden comb: "Don't worry about it, they love to toss."
Wen Luyao sat down on Yun Qiao's bed and said, "By the way, I remembered that your Miss Ninth seemed to have had some trouble with Master Jiang in the past.
Now that I am no longer a civilized person, why don’t you choose Miss Ninth of your family for marriage?”
"It's not enough." Yun Qiao said.
Wen Luyao: "Isn't this enough?"
"In my opinion, there is not much difference between choosing the son of a subordinate and the daughter of a concubine. The governor wants to protect the interests of the military government, not the Xi family.
Besides, if the military government is stable, the Xi family will naturally be rich and powerful. Master Sheng is the right-hand man of the military governor, and he was also a first-rate prime minister in the past. He and the military government are both prosperous and prosperous. Why can't his son do it?" Yun Qiao said.
Wen Luyao: "You are just guessing."
"It's really just a wild guess. I'm not a roundworm in the warlord's belly." Yun Qiao said.
Wen Luyao: "..."
She said it so matter-of-factly, and it was so serious that Aunt Wen almost took it seriously.
"If Xi Wenlan can really marry into the Jiang family, it will be her good fortune." Wen Luyao said, "The Jiang family is a prominent family in Peiping, rich and powerful; Xi Wenlan is nothing more than that."
Yun Qiao: "Probably not, Mr. Jiang will not marry her."
Wen Luyao felt relieved.
She doesn't like Xi Wenlan.
Yun Qiao was dressed neatly. When she went downstairs, Fourth Master and others were still there, but they stopped talking and each took a book or magazine or newspaper to read.
After saying hello, Yun Qiao said: "I may not come back for lunch at noon."
Fourth Master Xi nodded and saw that Yun Qiao was only wearing a new cheongsam in the color of lotus root and lotus flowers. He said: "Wear more, it will still be cold in the morning and evening."
Yun Qiao wore a shawl with long tassels on her arms, with complicated and beautiful patterns.
"There is a shawl," she said.
Fourth Master Xi said nothing more.
It is indeed warm today, and the sun is like a golden glow, which is very comfortable when it falls on people.
It was so warm, almost burning.
The peach tree in the courtyard was attracted by the warm sunshine and bloomed full of flowers to welcome the early spring. The petals are delicate red and pink, sweet and pleasant, and colorful butterflies and bees are lingering around.
"It's so hot!" Wen Luyao complained in a low voice, "I'm going to tan."
Yun Qiao didn't take it seriously: "It's not that..."
"I'm young." Aunt Wen insisted.
Yun Qiao could only say: "I'll go back and get you an umbrella."
"Go get it!" Wen Luyao was not polite at all, "It will take at least twenty minutes to walk there. The Xi family's yard is too big, it should be connected to a tram."
Yun Qiao: "..."
She turned around and went back to the fourth room.
When she came back, Fourth Master Xi had already gone to the study, and the boys had all gone back to their houses.
Yun Qiao remembered that she had a very beautiful umbrella, which was peach-pink and decorated with flowers. It was ordered by an umbrella-making master in Hong Kong. There are also such umbrellas on the market, but they are not as light and bright as Yun Qiao's.
Cheng Yin was so envious that she begged for it several times, but Yun Qiao didn't give it to her.
She had just reached the stairs and saw the servant Ah Jin carrying bird's nests and going upstairs.
This servant named Ah Jin is specifically in charge of Xi Wenlan's room. She cleans and washes her room on weekdays. She also prepares Xi Wenlan's occasional midnight snacks.
She didn't look well, and when she saw Yun Qiao, she turned around and hid.
Yun Qiao was confused.
She pretended not to see it and continued to go upstairs, muttering in her mind: "What is she hiding from?"
After returning to his room, Yun Qiao pretended to look for an umbrella and quietly listened to the noise outside. About ten minutes later, Ah Jin went upstairs again and gently knocked on Xi Wenlan's door.
