Chapter 404

The rumors between Xie Yun and Qiao ruoyi became more and more widespread as the debate in the teahouse spread.

Qiao ruoyi had been avoiding Xie Yun during the past few days, both in the upper and lower court. Whenever she and Xie Yun got closer, she could always see the strange looks in the eyes of the others.

Even Emperor Hong and Prime Minister Lin were watching the lively scene between the two of them.

This made Qiao Ruoyi quite unhappy. When she arrived at the yamen, her subordinates asked when Qiao ruoyi would be able to have her wedding feast. Qiao Ruoyi couldn’t keep a straight face in the yamen, and they had no ill intentions, but she didn’t know how to deal with it.

While she was troubled, Qiao Ruoyi made a trip to the Qiao family’s ancestral grave in Chang ‘an.

Since Luo Wei had married into the Qiao family, he was the son of the Qiao family. His grave was also in the Qiao family’s ancestral grave.

Qiao ruoyi placed the tributes in the bamboo basket in front of Luo Wei’s grave one by one. She used a handkerchief to wipe Luo Wei’s gravestone, “Luo Wei, the outside world is very troublesome now. I really want to shed all pretense of cordiality with them. After all, I’m an Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Appointments. My Sister is the Empress…”

“But every time I’m about to lose my temper, I always think of the words you said to me when I was teased when I first entered the Ministry of Appointments. Officialdom is not just a test of knowledge. It’s also important to keep in touch with people.”

“Luo Wei, I really miss you. Yesterday, I dreamed of you again. I dreamed that you and I had a daughter. Our family of four was living happily.”

Qiao ruoyi looked at the uncarved place on the left side of the tombstone. Perhaps in a few decades, she would be here. The sealed tomb would reopen, so that she could always be with Luo Wei.

Under a big tree in the distance, Xie Yun held an umbrella and looked at Qiao ruoyi from afar.

Lan Xin, who was at the side, puffed her cheeks and said, “Master is so good, why does she still miss that Tombstone? How can Luo Wei compare to master?

“Without the Qiao family, it’s impossible for Luo Wei to get the position of general, not to mention that his adoptive parents used the Qiao family to do all kinds of evil things. Luo Wei doesn’t care about them. A man with no ability can not compare to you at all!”

Xie Yun used his other hand to knock Lan Xin’s head with his fan. “You spoke ill of him in front of his grave. Aren’t you afraid that he will come looking for you at night?”

“Looking for me? I said the same thing. Thinking of how miss ni Shang has always been your uncle Xie…”

Xie Yun recalled the scene when she saw Luo Wei in Lin ‘an that day. In his eyes, Luo Wei was definitely not capable. He was just a man who ate the Qiao family’s soft bread. However, he had one ability, which was to be able to understand Qiao ruoyi’s shortcomings, he wanted Qiao Ruoyi to let go of her temper.

In Xie Yun’s eyes, Qiao Ruoyi was extremely conflicted. She was born into the marquisdom with a noble status, yet she was only a concubine.

There was a pair of unreliable parents in the residence. Her biological aunt’s status was low, and Qiao Ruoyun was weak. Although Qiao Ruoyin was usually a concubine, the situation was completely different.

Grandmother doted on Qiao Ruofeng and Qiao ruowan.

These sisters in the residence were inferior to Qiao Ruoyi in every aspect. However, everyone in the residence was protected and doted on. Only Qiao Ruoyi still needed to protect her aunt.

Qiao Ruoyi did not want to be a concubine who had accepted her fate. However, she knew very well that she was only a concubine’s daughter..

She was a person who unconsciously had a sharp edge. She hurt others and hurt herself because she had low self-esteem and self-confidence. Luo Wei could tolerate such a contradictory person, advise her, and help her find points of conflict to integrate.

Since Qiao Ruoyi was able to establish herself in the Ministry of appointments, Luo Wei must have helped her a lot.

..

After Qiao Ruoyi returned to the Qiao family, she was called into the study by an Yuanhou.

An yuanhou asked Qiao ruoyi, “Your mother should have come to tell you about this, but I’m afraid that your mother will be fooled by you again, and you will bring up the past again.

Since Xie Yun said that he would marry you a year ago, he probably won’t change his mind now, right?

Ask him when he will come to propose marriage.”

Qiao ruoyi frowned and said, “The Qiao family can not tolerate Nichang and me. I have a salary now. I don’t need to marry to be able to support Nichang and me.”

An Yuan Hou snorted lightly and said, “With your salary, is it enough for you to buy a few paintings at the Wan Juan Restaurant?”

Qiao ruoyi said, “If I want to raise nichang, I will naturally have some restraint.”

An yuanhou put down the pen in his hand and said, “Your personality is not like SUXUE’s at all!”

Qiao ruoyi pursed her lips and said, “Do you still remember suxue? How did she become because of you? She spent half her life on a bed of sickness, and I have never seen her smile…”

An yuanhou said, “But I remember that she loved to smile the most. At that time, when the Qiao family was in trouble, she was already sewing a wedding dress. She was going to marry her cousin. At that time, I was only the young heir of the Hou family, so I had no worries.

Su Xue was older than me by two years. We grew up together. I was still very reluctant to let her get married. Later, the Qiao family suffered a great defeat. Uncle’s body returned one by one. Your grandfather also died on the battlefield.

I had no choice but to go to the battlefield. Because of this, Su Xue had to guard the filial piety of the main family and could not marry her cousin. As for her cousin, he had already broken away from slavery. Originally, he had asked to marry Su Xue because she was the eldest servant girl in front of the heir of the Marquis family.

However, the Qiao family was repeatedly defeated. At that time, all the officials wanted to punish the Qiao family for a serious crime. Her cousin was afraid of being implicated, so he repeatedly married someone else as his wife.

Because of this, Su Xue’s marriage was delayed. Later, when I became the Marquis, her parents also helped her find a good marriage. She was unwilling. At that time, the Marquis Mansion really couldn’t do without her, the eldest servant girl.

She always said that after the Madam entered the house, she could leave with peace of mind.

“Later, before your mother entered the house, your grandmother made the decision to let her have sex. She agreed. At that time, I was muddle-headed and always felt that it would be better for Su Xue to stay in the Marquis’mansion than to marry someone who looked like her cousin.”

“Later, after you were born, I understood that she was unwilling to stay. It was just that at that time, she was unwilling to leave because of you..

“Ruoyi, your aunt and I grew up together. Although I have no romantic feelings for her, I never thought that she would end up like this.”

Qiao Ruoyi’s eyes were filled with tears as she said, “But when she was harmed by the Qian family, you didn’t care. When I said that the Qian family harmed us, you still helped the Qian family. My aunt should have left the Qiao residence at that time. She wouldn’t have stayed sick for So Long!”

An yuanhou said, “Ruoyi, father knows that it’s useless to apologize to your aunt now. But before Su Xue died, she wrote me a suicide note. She hopes that you can be happy.

With the power of the Qiao family now, what influence does the rumors have on us? It’s just that Father also hopes that you and niching can have a good home. The Qiao family has always been your and Niching’s family. Niching is also the Qiao family’s young miss.

After you and Luo Wei got married, you became much more sensible, and your conduct in the world was no longer as sharp as before.

Xie Yun was willing to give up the pride of an aristocratic family for you and marry you. Presumably, she will cherish you as much as Luo Wei does. Our family hopes that you can be happy too!”

Qiao ruoyi shook her head and said, “No, there is only one Luo Wei in this world. I will not marry Xie Yun. The Qiao family can not accommodate me. I have my own place to go!”

An yuanhou said helplessly, “I have said so much, but you still don’t understand. Forget it, if you don’t want to marry, then don’t want to marry.”
