When Qiao Qingya saw his daughter looking at him like this, he knew that she had not thought it through.
But he couldn't let her be. He was afraid that if his daughter went in and out of garrison headquarters too many times, the rumors would ruin her.
He was also afraid that Lin Jun Mai would use any means at his disposal to covet what was in his hands.
He stubbornly believed that if his daughter was engaged to be married to Koo Chia, he would have to give up his relationship with his daughter no matter how domineering he was.
Then the thing in his hands would be much safer.
Most importantly, as far as Qiao Qingya was concerned, this young man, Gu Jun, was the only choice for Qiao family's son-in-law. He had a noble background and didn't have the slightest habit of being a hedonistic disciple.
If his daughter had followed Gu Jun, she probably wouldn't have suffered any grievances.
Therefore, as a father, he had to quickly facilitate this matter and not let his daughter suffer a loss.
"Abba, I want to think about it." Qiao Ruojie rejected his father's suggestion.
Qiao Qingya was already mentally prepared that his daughter was someone who had her own will and wouldn't easily comply with his arrangements.
Qiao Qingya didn't want to force his daughter too much and gently said, "For matters of marriage, it's only right to be a bit more cautious."
"Father, the last time we went to Big Sister Yan Er's house, she said that she was going to break the engagement." Qiao Ruo changed the topic.
Qiao Qingya asked in surprise, "Decline the marriage?" Forefather wants to break off the engagement? This bastard. "
"He was always dragging on and never came back to get married. He always faltered when he came out of the house and didn't give the Feng family an explanation. Big Sis Yan Er wrote a letter to ask Ying Shiqing to break off the engagement." Qiao Ruo Chu explained in detail.
When Aunt Yu heard this, she also came over to listen to the father and daughter duo.
"The Feng Family is truly pitiful. But then again, that old woman from the Feng family is really disgraceful. " "No," she said.
"No matter what happens to her, it's still a mistake to come out of the house. "You don't have the slightest bit of faith, what scholar's family!" Qiao Qingya was very angry.
"Now that the world has changed, the newspapers have been waiting all day for the marriage to take its own course, especially the scholars, who have been advocating this. The engagement at home is long gone. " Auntie Yu answered.
Qiao Qingya gave her a cold glare.
He was trying to tell her about his daughter and Gu Jun.
Only then did Aunt Yu understand. She smiled coyly and said, "These are all men's affairs. The proper family's daughter is betrothed according to her parents' wishes and is prepared to be a good wife."
She picked up the tray and went to pour tea.
"Father, give Manager Feng a raise in the future. His family is in a difficult situation." Qiao Ruochen suggested.
Qiao Qingya did an accounting in his heart. When he thought about the fact that Manager Feng had followed him for more than ten years, he agreed without hesitation.
The next day, the autumn wind was even stronger.
The street was covered with yellow leaves.
The coolness gradually turned to a slight chill. At first, Qiao Ruo was afraid of the cold. She wore a pink cheongsam made of cotton under her coat.
The girls' school tested for the first time today, and she arrived an hour earlier than usual.
Sister-in-law opened the classroom door long ago, she sat in her seat and began to study.
Suddenly the door opened and someone came in and took the book from her and threw it on the floor.
Qiao Ruo Chu raised her head and saw that it was actually Gu Wanjia with a few fashionable girls with curly hair and red lips. They were all standing in front of her seat.
Gu Wanjia's face was cold and elegant, her eyes burning with anger. Qiao Ruo didn't know what had happened.
"What are you doing?" She bent down and picked up her book.
"My brother hasn't been home for a long time, it's all because of you. My mother is so angry, she's sick, do you know that? It's all your fault. " Gu Wanjia shouted at her out of control.
When Qiao Ruo Chu heard that Gu Jun's mother was sick, she felt rather sad. She didn't care about Gu Wanjia's attitude towards her and calmly said, "Miss Xiong, I've let go of the school to request young master Zhi's return, okay?"
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person with your hand.
With her attitude being so friendly, Gu Wanjia could no longer act so arrogantly and coldly, snorting as she left.
The few girls behind her looked at Qiao Ruchu with disdain, then followed her out of the classroom.
"I really don't understand. Why would Young Noble Zhi fall for her? It's really a waste of time."
"That's right, Wanxia, your elder brother's standards are really low. I heard that her father's business is turning yellow."
Qiao Ruo Chu heard them talking about her as they walked. She sighed lightly and continued reading.
When the students who came in saw this scene, they gathered in groups of twos and threes and pointed their fingers at them while spittle flew everywhere.
Qiao Ruo Chu was wholeheartedly waiting for the exam and was also thinking about Gu Jun's mother's illness. She was completely unaffected by the surrounding noises.
It turned out that Gu Jun's mother, Pan Yuyi, often snuck to the Western General Hospital to see her son. Every time she went, Gu Jun would be busy and rarely had a chance to talk to her.
She saw that her son was very thin now, so she went back and quarreled with him. She complained that her husband was harsh and merciless towards his child, forcing him out.
Ku Fangfang was so angry that she stopped stepping into her room.
The Gu family's newly wedded aunt Ma took advantage of the opportunity to have a room to pamper her, serving her so much that she couldn't get out of bed.
Not only that, but Mrs Ma also didn't put her other wives in her eyes. She spent every day scolding people.
The remaining two concubines went to Pan Yuyi's room and asked her to speak out and teach Mrs Ma a lesson.
On this day, while they were making tea, Pan Yuyi said, "The weather is not normal these days. Droughts die, floods die. It's time to balance out."
The concubines of the Gu family blushed when they heard this. It turned out that the main wife of the family was also a lively and attractive woman.
The concubine, Madam Ma, came from a humble background. She looked at the group of old ladies gathered together, unwilling to accept her actions, and bitterly went back to the top of her head, "Even an old cow knows how to eat young grass. "No way!"
Pan Yuyi had never heard of such a thing. She was so angry that she felt dizzy and short of breath. She was supported by a servant back to her room to rest.
When he returned, the servant told him what had happened. He smiled and went straight to Ma's room, not asking a single question about his wife's illness.
That night, Pan Yuyi really fell ill.
Pan Yuyi was sick, and Gu Fangfang didn't even ask. She was extremely cold.
Gu Wanjia saw all of this, and her heart was filled with hatred.
She felt that all of this was caused by the innocent guy making a fuss about marrying Qiao Ruo Chu.
Her father adored his eldest son and hoped that he would be able to take a suitable wife and help him inherit the family's business and support the family.
He never would have thought that his eldest son would be so disappointing, insisting on going against him and marrying a girl from a small clan. It didn't matter what his mother wanted, she was still an only daughter, and she didn't even have a brother to help her.
Gu Wan Jia was well aware of her father's disappointment. Previously, she just didn't like Qiao Ruochen, but now she hated her.
She didn't think that Qiao Ruo Chu's attitude would be so good today. She took the initiative to urge her brother to go home. Since she said this much, she couldn't possibly throw punches and kicks at her in front of so many people.
