Chapter 79 Jiang Yun'er

79
"Qiong Yan—"

The woman only had Qiao Qiongyan in her eyes. As soon as she stepped forward, she checked Qiao Qiongyan up and down with a worried face, and when she saw that she was fine, she lowered her face and asked, "Qiongyan, where have you been these few days? Are you and your brother worried?"

Qiao Qiongyan was away from home for a few days, Jiang Yuner couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep well. Last night her husband got angry at her, blaming her for harming her by indulging Qiao Qiongyan. She also reflected on it all night.

Seeing that Qiao Qiongyan had returned safely, Jiang Yun'er's heart finally eased.

"Sister-in-law, I went to play in Baogang Town these few days." Qiao Qiongyan took the arm of sister-in-law Jiang Yun'er habitually, and introduced to Bai Beibei: "Beibei, this is my sister-in-law, sister-in-law, this is me Babe I always tell you."

Jiang Yun'er was about to reprimand Qiao Qiongyan, but when she heard Qiao Qiongyan's words, she realized that there were guests at home, and abruptly stopped her reprimanding Qiao Qiongyan.

Jiang Yun'er looked at Bai Beibei, and smiled decently: "So this is Miss Beibei, Qiongyan often whispers about you in my ear, I finally saw you today."

Bai Beibei looked at her while Jiang Yun'er was looking at her. This Mrs. Qiao had a melon-seeded face, her skin was as white as jade, no makeup was applied on her face, and her black hair was gently rolled up. It is fixed with a delicate plum-shaped hosta, which is simple yet atmospheric, pleasing to the eye.

A person's character can be seen from his attire, and Bo Beibei has a good impression of Mrs. Qiao Shao.

"Hello Mrs. Qiao." Bai Beibei smiled at Jiang Yun'er.

"Beibei, since you and Qiongyan are good sisters, just call me sister-in-law like Qiongyan, and I'll call you by your first name." Jiang Yun'er's first impression of Bai Beibei was pretty good.

"Yes, sister-in-law." Bo Beibei called out generously.

Jiang Yun'er invited Bo Beibei into the hall, served tea, and chatted tentatively.

Jiang Yun'er was very happy to see that Beibei was well-mannered and polite, so she left the living room under the pretext of having something to do, and made room for the two of them.

Don't blame Jiang Yun'er for being so cautious, it's because Qiao Qiongyan is so heartless, every time she meets someone she can chat with, she calls her a good sister, no matter who she is.

Bai Beibei is such a perceptive person, just now Jiang Yun'er noticed her temptation to herself as soon as she spoke, and answered some of her questions neither humble nor overbearing.

From Jiang Yun'er's performance just now, Beibei doesn't doubt her love for Qiao Qiongyan, but she doesn't know what kind of friends Qiao Qiongyan brought home before, which makes Jiang Yun'er so worried.

Bo Beibei shook his head secretly, and took out the remaining 50 thousand sheets, and handed them to Qiao Qiongyan: "I don't have anything to keep as souvenirs when I come to your house. Let your family try these thousand sheets."

"There are still some for us!" Qiao Qiongyan took the thousand sheets overjoyed, she never thought that Beibei would leave her so many thousand sheets.

It is said that businessmen value profits, and Qiao Qiongyan knew that Beibei's family was not very good, but she did not sell these thousands of sheets to shopkeeper Sun for money, but gave them to her family as early adopters, which means that in Beibei's eyes, she is more important than money. This realization made Qiao Qiongyan narrow her eyes with a smile.

Seeing how Qiao Qiongyan was so moved by the thousands of photos, she couldn't help but find it funny.

"Beibei, the cook in our family has never made thousands of sheets. Go to the kitchen and tell them how to make these thousand sheets." Qiao Qiongyan remembered that Bai Beibei also taught the cook how to make these thousand sheets when he was in the restaurant.

"Yes." Bo Beibei also wanted to see how good the cooks who came out of the imperial dining room were.

The cook of the general's mansion is a fat man around 60 years old. When he saw Qiao Qiongyan, he didn't show a trace of respect on his face. A trace of fluctuation.

When Bo Beibei was explaining the Qianzhang method to him, he also listened without moving, and did not give any response after listening, which made Bo Beibei very depressed, and he wondered if he understood it?

Qiao Qiongyan was used to the cook's indifference for a long time, and after Bai Beibei finished speaking, she dragged her out of the kitchen.

"Beibei, let's take a shower and change into clean clothes first, and then I'll show you around our general's mansion." Qiao Qiongyan asked the maid to take Bai Beibei to take a bath, and she herself went back to the room to be served by Xiaozhu bathe.

Bo Beibei also brought her own clothes, so she didn't change into the ones sent by the maid.

After taking a shower, the maid wanted to help her wipe her hair, but Bo Beibei shook her head and told her to go down, then picked up the handkerchief and started to wipe her hair.

As soon as Beibei had finished packing, Qiao Qiongyan brought Xiaozhu over.

"Beibei, let's go, I'll show you around." Qiao Qiongyan happily pulled Beibei up and walked out.

The General's Mansion is much bigger than Beibei imagined, it is a seven-entry mansion.

From Qiao Qiongyan's mouth, I learned that there are only five masters in the General's Mansion, including General Qiao who only comes back once a few months, and Qiao Qiongyan's three-year-old nephew, but there are more than 200 people in the General's Mansion.

Bai Beibei clicked her tongue after hearing this: "Qiongyan, there are only a few people in your family, do you need so many people to serve you?"

The Jiang family is the housekeeper of the General's Mansion, but Jiang's actions don't look like a luxurious person. How could he be willing to support so many idlers?Bo Beibei couldn't understand it.

"Actually, there are not many real servants in our family." Qiao Qiongyan said: "Beibei, have you noticed that most of our house are disabled people? They have all been on the battlefield. The soldiers who lived and died together were seriously injured on the battlefield, they had no ability to survive, and nowhere to go, so my father left them in the general's mansion." Qiao Qiongyan was very proud of her father's act of loyalty.

"They were injured on the battlefield, shouldn't the court take care of them?" Bai Beibei was puzzled, their sacrifices were all for the country, so it stands to reason that the court should arrange them, right?

"The imperial court is in charge, but the national treasury was empty back then, the pensions have not come down for a long time, and these people have no relatives. My father couldn't bear to see them displaced and took them in."

Beibei frowned: "Your family is not a mountain of gold and silver, can it survive if it goes on like this?"

After listening to Bai Beibei's words, Qiao Qiongyan laughed: "You don't have to worry about this, since the new emperor ascended the throne, those injured soldiers have been properly settled, and now we can handle the two hundred or so people .”

The neighboring countries on the southern border of Qiyao Kingdom are all small countries. Since the big battle more than ten years ago, they have not dared to act rashly anymore. Of course, there are still small tricks in the dark.

"That's okay." Hearing this, Bo Beibei was relieved for Qiao Qiongyan's brother and sister. It was really worrying to have such a selfless father.
