Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 61
Chapter 61 Complain Bitterly
Fortunately, even though Jin Baijin was a bit domineering, he did not grow crooked, and his character was not bad.
However, because of his appearance, he didn’t have any friends in his clan, and because of his IQ, he had always been in Class Ding, and he didn’t have any companions of the same age.
The Jin Clan had business contacts with the Sun Clan. The two clans had more contacts, so Jin Baijin and Sun Xian were more familiar with each other. In addition, when Sun Xian was excluded, Sun Xian spoke a few words for Jin Baijin out of respect for her clan. Jin Baijin treated Sun Xian as his confidant.
Qiao Xi returned to the room where she was taking her lunch break, and Lian Qiao was packing.
These items will be brought back after school starts in the next few years.
“Qiao Qiao.” Qiao Jinwen’s voice was a bit heavier than usual.
Qiao Xi looked over, and Qiao Ningdai’s expression was also sullen.
“Third sister, fifth sister.”
Qiao Jinwen nodded, “Are you packing? Tell Lian Qiao to be careful, don’t throw things away.”
His furrowed brows clearly showed that he had something on his mind.
Qiao Yunxi instructed Lian Qiao and poured tea for Qiao Jinwen and Qiao Ningdai.
Seeing that Qiao Xi didn’t care about the two of them, Qiao Ningdai couldn’t sit still and took the initiative to say, “Qiao Qiao, you’re too unkind.”
Qiao Yunxi raised his eyebrows.
This was the second time someone had said that to her today.
She looked expressionlessly at Qiao Ningdai.
Qiao Ningdai said with an uneasy expression, “Third Sister and I have good intentions to help you. We are wholeheartedly protecting you and eldest branch. It’s good of you to silently slash us two times in the back.”
Qiao Xi tilted her head, puzzled.
“Fifth Brother,” Qiao Jinwen stopped Qiao Ningdai, “Qiao Qiao didn’t mean to.”
‘”So what if we don’t have any ideas?” We helped her put in a good word in front of her and tried to calm down the rumors outside. She was fine. She quietly sold us out in front of Uncle and Fourth Aunt. Even Grandmother had some objections to both of us. Especially Third Sister, Grandmother even punished you for this. ” Qiao Ningdai was so angry that her chest rose and fell, and her eyes turned red.
“My sisters, what do you care about doing so much?” Qiao Jinwen comforted Qiao Ningdai.
Qiao Xi knew that it was her turn to play.
“Third sister?” She looked at Qiao Jinwen questioningly.
“Nothing, Qiao Qiao, don’t think too much.” Qiao Jinwen smiled weakly.
“Fifth sister, what’s wrong?”
Qiao Ningdai put in so much effort to perform that it was hard to explain why she didn’t cooperate.
Qiao Ningdai looked at her angrily, “We are here to help you plan. You cut us two times behind our backs. When Fourth Aunt returned from the manor, she called me and Third Sister to the same place and scolded us.” Originally, I thought that this matter was over, but I didn’t expect grandmother to know about it. Not only did she reprimand us, she even punished me and Third Sister for copying books. Qiao Qiao, you begged us to help you back then. We helped you. It’s fine if you don’t appreciate it. Third Sister is still choreographing us behind our backs. She was kind enough to advise me not to argue with you. Otherwise … ”
If he was indignant, he would not let it go.
Qiao Yunxi looked pitifully at Qiao Jinwen, “Third Sister, I…”
“It doesn’t matter, Qiao Qiao.” Qiao Jinwen waved her hand, her expression a little more distant than before. It seemed that she had been “injured” quite a bit.
Qiao Xi was anxious, and her face finally became paralyzed. “Third Sister, Qiao Qiao didn’t do it on purpose. You know, when Qiao Qiao is unsure, she would ask Fourth Aunt and you for advice. When she saw Fourth Aunt that day, Qiao Qiao was anxious and asked casually. She didn’t expect to bring so much trouble to Third Sister and Fifth Sister. I, I…”
After saying that, Qiao Yunxi put on a sobbing voice.
‘”It’s fine, Qiao Qiao,” Qiao Jinwen said generously. “Third sister knows that you didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t worry, grandmother won’t vent her anger on you or eldest branch.”
Qiao Xi was at a loss as she anxiously asked, “Then, should I move to the inn? Also, my father and concubine mother Bai …”
Qiao Ningdai snorted proudly.
She knew that this idiot was so indecisive that he couldn’t do anything without her and Qiao San.
“What else do you want to live in?” Qiao Ningdai said angrily, “We’ve already said this. If you stay in Fourth Uncle’s inn again, isn’t that a forced sale? Originally, we were kind-hearted and didn’t want the outsiders to misunderstand eldest branch, but now, we’ve become an inn that encourages you to spend money on your own family.”
Qiao Ningdai bit the word “money” very hard to vent her dissatisfaction.
Qiao Xi stammered to one side.
“Qiao Wu, what are you talking about? You scared Qiao Qiao.” Qiao Jinwen glared at Qiao Ningdai. When she turned to look at Qiao Yunxi, a smile finally appeared on her face. “In this situation, how can you let your family live in an inn?”
“Third sister” Qiao Xi buried her head awkwardly.
Seeing that she was uncomfortable, Qiao Jinwen’s eyes flashed with darkness.
She knew Qiao Yunxi’s temperament the best.
This time, it was mostly a coincidence. Although it was a pity, there was nothing he could do. This idiot was just lucky.
“Third sister” Qiao Ningdai seemed to have something to say, but seeing Qiao Jinwen’s unsmiling face, she turned her lips a few times and was unable to spit out a single word.
She was so anxious that she was restless and kept glancing at Qiao Yunxi.
Qiao Yunxi laughed in his heart.
The duo sang smoothly.
She just won’t answer.
Qiao Jinwen frowned as she glanced at Qiao Ningdai in displeasure.
Qiao Ningdai’s heart skipped a beat as she gritted her teeth and said, “Qiao Qiao, there’s something else.”
Qiao Yunxi looked over doubtfully.
“This time, you received a post from the Marquis of Zhen Yuan Manor. Grandmother is very happy that Matriarch Lu invited you to serve porridge together.”
Hearing this, Qiao Yunxi’s face was filled with joy.
She had been longing for Old Lady Qiao’s approval since childhood. Not to mention her face in front of Old Lady Qiao like Qiao Jinwen, Old Lady Qiao would be so excited that she would be at a loss if she looked at her again.
Too eager to be acknowledged, “Qiao Yunxi” flatters her and does everything she can.
“You’re embarrassed in front of grandmother, but you and I have suffered,” said Qiao Ningdai eagerly. “With Marquis Zhen Yuan’s status in the court, it’s an honor for you to be in the eyes of Old Madam Lu. Your third sister and I are truly happy for you, but …” Hesitantly, we glanced at Qiao Xi. “Your third sister and I have been muttered to each other by grandmother, and our days in Qiao Manor have been very difficult.”
“How could this be?” Qiao Xi asked.
Qiao Ningdai sighed. “You know grandmother’s temper. She sincerely hopes that we sisters will be fine. Now that you’re looking promising, grandmother is happy. At the same time, she’s worried about me and your third sister.” Actually, your third sister and I don’t feel anything. We are sisters. You have a bright future, and we have a bright face. However, the elders think much further than us. Because with you for comparison, grandmother also hopes that Third Sister and I can have a good future. With noble people helping us, we are confident. Grandmother said that she would have to explain herself to her grandfather when she saw him down there in the future. ”
The atmosphere was gloomy.
Qiao Jinwen said with a sullen expression, “Grandmother has been thinking too much these past few days. She doesn’t have any appetite and can’t sleep well. She has lost a lot of energy. We are very worried.”
Qiao Yunxi’s expression changed slightly.
“Actually, grandmother doesn’t have to worry at all,” Qiao Jinwen said helplessly. “Your Fifth Sister and I have our own way out. We don’t have to rely on outsiders. As Qiao Family’s daughters, our status is still low. Grandmother is overthinking things, but her intentions are good. As an elder, who doesn’t wish for a good way out for this junior?”
His words were already so obvious. If it was an ordinary person, they would naturally know how to respond. Unfortunately, Qiao Yunxi was an unsophisticated existence that ignored Qiao Jinwen’s words.
Qiao Jinwen could no longer hold back any longer and glared fiercely at Qiao Ningdai.
Qiao Ningdai was shocked and gritted her teeth. “Qiao Qiao, do you think you can bring me and your third sister with you during Laba?”
Qiao Yunxi raised his head.
“Your third sister and I don’t have any other intentions. We just don’t want to see grandmother anxious about our juniors. Your third sister and I are just playing the role of formalities. It’s still you who plays the leading role. We just need to show our faces. As long as grandmother is relieved, we can do anything.”
A complacent tone.
Qiao Yunxi’s dull expression showed that she did not understand what Qiao Ningdai meant.
Qiao Ningdai gripped her handkerchief tightly and tightly. If it weren’t for this idiot, she would have slapped him long ago.
How could Qiao Xi, who occupied the nest, not understand what the two of them meant, but why?
Since he was asking for help, he had to beg for help. Not to mention lowering his eyebrows, he had to at least lower his eyebrows and be pleasing to the eye.
What’s wrong?
If she were to fool her a few times, she would invite them over with a slap in the face?
If it was Qiao Yunxi in the past, she might have done so, but now that she was in this leather pouch, she had to follow her rules.
Seeing the hatred in Qiao Jinwen and Qiao Ningdai’s eyes, Qiao Yunxi smiled.
You can’t stand it anymore?
This was just a little bit of interest, she didn’t even get her capital back!
Over the years, the two of them had lobbied for many benefits from her under various pretexts. She still had to think about how to get those things back.
Even Old hag had obtained quite a few things from “Qiao Yunxi”. They were all sent over under the pretext of “filial piety.” However, the filial piety had changed from “Qiao Yunxi” to Qiao Jinwen.
“Qiao Qiao, what do you mean?” Seeing that Qiao Xi didn’t speak for a long time, Qiao Jinwen finally couldn’t hold back any longer.
This idiot was getting out of control.
Qiao Jinwen felt that she couldn’t do anything. Qiao Xi looked as stupid as ever. She was so dull that there was no other emotion except the blink of an eye. Even the feeling she gave off was as gloomy and dim as ever. However, she was not at ease in her heart.
She looked carefully today and found that Qiao Xi was still the same Qiao Xi, but the feeling she gave her was not accurate.
When she thought that Qiao Yunxi was still easy to manipulate, Qiao Yunxi suddenly gave her the feeling that she couldn’t control it. When she thought that Qiao Yunxi had changed, Qiao Yunxi was still that idiot.
Qiao Jinwen was already unsure.
However, accustomed to being arrogant and confident, she did not think that Qiao Yunxi would be able to escape her control in a short period of time.
