Twin Brocade

Chapter 605 Hostage
Isn't that right? Lu Shiman's words touched Si Lansheng's heart.He hurriedly asked Yanxia to call Fang Jinshu over and ask carefully about what happened.

"Young master of the Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion, I only heard his name before, but this time, it seems that the rumors are true." Lu Shiman said with emotion.

Si Lansheng also nodded in agreement: "The empress dowager's ability to control her natal family is greatly admired by the government and the public."

The two were talking, Fang Jinshu entered the door, bowed and said, "Mother, are you looking for me?"

"Just now the young master of Marquis Cheng En sent someone to apologize, and now I know the reason." Si Lansheng said: "You child, something happened outside, why didn't you come back and talk about it?"

Fang Jinshu smiled slightly, and said: "It's just a small matter, my daughter doesn't want to bother mother." Her expression was calm and natural.

"Look, this child is really good." Lu Shiman saw it in his eyes, and said enviously: "Sister, you are really blessed to have such a good daughter."

She married Qiao Wenxin, so she could be regarded as an old couple and young wife, and she also had a pair of direct children left by her cousin.

And her own daughter is really young, and she doesn't know what kind of temperament she will be when she grows up. If she can be as capable as Fang Jinshu, she will be satisfied.

"Stop praising her." Si Lansheng felt relieved when he heard this, but he smiled modestly and said: "She is a child from a family, how can she know so much, it's better not to let me worry about it."

"Such a good child, sister, you are too modest." Lu Shiman smiled and said with emotion: "Looking at the behavior of your family secretary and the young master of the Hou's mansion, I feel that I am really old."

She is not very old, just in her early 20s.But after getting married, my mentality is different from when I was a girl.Whether it's Fang Jinshu or Xiao Pei, they are actually only a few years younger than her, but she seems to be looking at the younger generation.

Although in terms of seniority, they are indeed Lu Shiman's juniors.

Lu Shiman felt this emotion, and Si Lansheng smiled and said: "You are only a little old, and you are just like a flower, so why are you old?"

Fang Jinshu sat quietly at the bottom, listening to the two of them exchanging greetings.In their words, they praised Xiao Pei a lot.

Xiao Pei?

Fang Jinshu smiled from the bottom of his heart, he really pretended very well and gained a good reputation.In fact, how could she not know what kind of person he was in his bones?

Recalling some things from his previous life, Fang Jinshu thought about the affairs of Cheng Enhou's residence.However, these have nothing to do with her in this life, so she put her hands aside for the time being.

The rain gradually decreased until it stopped slowly.

Si Lansheng ordered to go down, and the two families got into the carriage and returned to Beijing.

The next day, Fang Shuyu came down from the yamen, called Fang Ziquan to the study, and said, "Sister Xuan is about to reach her age, Father plans to arrange your marriage at the beginning of next year, what do you think?"

The marriage between the two was settled early on, and Qiao Tongxuan would be too old if she had to wait until Chun Wei's results three years later.What's more, whether Fang Ziquan can get the honor of Juren does not affect this marriage.

That being the case, they simply got married earlier.It is also logical to start a family first and then start a business.

In Fang Ziquan's mind, the scene of the two walking in the fields yesterday emerged.Qiao Tongxuan's inadvertent sadness revealed a desire in his heart to take care of her.

"Let father be the master." Fang Ziquan said.

This marriage was not decided by him, and Qiao Tongxuan was not chosen by him.But he can give her a stable home and give her a place to stay.

Let Qiao Tongxuan, who lost her mother when she was young, no longer feel helpless.

"Okay." Fang Shuyu closed the fan, looked at it and said approvingly.

The father and son were talking about Fang Ziquan's marriage here, and in the yard of the Qiao family, the brother and sister were also having a conversation with similar meanings.

"Sister, have you thought about it?" Qiao Shijie asked in a deep voice.

"Think it over." Qiao Tongxuan nodded and said, "My mother chose this marriage for me for my own good. Fang Ziquan may also be the most suitable person for me."

She knew herself, and it was impossible for her mind to return to its original purity.And Fang Ziquan's purity will make her life less tiring.

"Okay, then I'll go talk to grandma."

This was originally a matter in the back house, and it should be handed over to Lu Shiman.But the siblings were unwilling to face Lu Shiman who had taken the place of their mother, even if she had done nothing wrong.

For the two of them, their father, Qiao Wenxin, was even more unreliable.

"Also, don't check your mother's illness." Qiao Shijie urged.

Qiao Tongxuan chuckled with a "huh": "Why don't you check anymore? Brother is afraid that I will find out something."

"Sister, don't talk nonsense." Qiao Shijie regretted that he shouldn't have said those words to his sister two years ago.But if he didn't say anything, he was afraid that Qiao Tongxuan at that time would not be able to hold on because she lost all her concerns.

Putting down the teacup in her hand, Qiao Tongxuan narrowed her eyes and said softly, "Brother, I have already found out."

"What?" Qiao Shijie's pupils shrank sharply, and said, "What did you find out?"

"When I was in Lu's house, I found the woman who was demoted for making a mistake." Qiao Tongxuan raised her face, with a cold smile on her face: "She is blind and dumb now, but I still managed to find out what happened back then. thing."

Blind and dumb, that is a means of the family.Fortunately, her ears can still hear, and she can nod and shake her head.

"What happened back then." Qiao Shijie asked.

He only guessed that Lu Yiqin must have had an unpleasant relationship with his grandfather back then.What it is for, but I don't know.

"Mother, she is also for us." Qiao Tongxuan sniffed and forced back the tears in her eyes: "Back then, my grandfather wanted to arrange for the children of the family to go to Beijing, and let my grandfather take care of me."

"What's the problem?" Qiao Shijie asked puzzled.

This was originally the purpose of the two marriages. The Qiao family helped the children of the Lu family gain a firm foothold in Beijing, and the Lu family provided family resources to the Qiao family to help the Qiao family smooth their official career in the court.

"It's not a problem, but one of them's official position has already been decided by my grandfather. My grandfather also liked it, so he forced my mother to talk about it after returning to her husband's house."

After all, Lu Yiqin was the daughter-in-law of Qiao's family, so forcing her to disregard the interests of her husband's family did not consider whether it would be difficult for her to be a good person in her husband's family.

Qiao Shijie smiled coldly, this is indeed the style of the Lu family.

"My mother didn't want it, so my grandfather let us know that he would leave the two of us at Lu's house to teach for a while. When my mother finishes that matter, she will come back to pick us up."

"Haha, it turns out that we have become hostages, which is really ridiculous." Qiao Shijie said.

How is this not ridiculous?
The married daughter brought a pair of legitimate children back to her natal family for the New Year, and was forced by the family to do things that harmed the interests of her husband's family.She refused, and her blood-related grandson and granddaughter turned out to be hostages of her grandfather.
