She was too lazy to clean up after dressing up as a villain heroine

"Preparation, it's not done yet, and besides, even if it's done, the engagement can still be terminated," Qiao Zhenzhen said.

Mo Tingjin waved his hand, "It's impossible, impossible. If this is the case, dad can't spare them."

"What you think is too simple. If they cause trouble and let the rice cook, what can dad do? Don't you know how my sister-in-law married into our family?"

The Mo family only has one husband and one wife, and the three children all have the same mother. It is inevitable that the children will be raised unaware of the dangers of the world.

"Sister-in-law..." Mo Tingjin said, "But the matter of sister-in-law and what you are talking about are two different things."

But the tone in which he said this was not completely unbelieving.

"The things are different, but the purpose is the same. If it comes to that, my parents will have no choice but to admit it. You don't know what kind of temper my aunt is? If my parents dare to deny it, maybe she will dare to sue the emperor. Go to Shitai." Qiao Zhenzhen glanced up and down at Mo Tingjin, "When the time comes, you will be ruined."

"What kind of family background is the Ge family, and what kind of family background is the Diao family? You have to think clearly about it. To put it bluntly, Yuzhu is worthy of you, and you are really above it."

"What you said, dad now..."

"Dad is dad, and you are you. Apart from dad, who else in our family can support us? How many people in the Ge family are serving as officials in the government?" Qiao Zhenzhen analyzed with him, "Second brother, you are very smart. Be clear, you are not the eldest son, you will have to live separately in the future. Now you can live with your parents, but can your parents protect you for the rest of your life? Or do you want to rely on your elder brother for support in the future? "

Mo Tingjin was silent and slowly lowered his head.

"I'm not making random guesses or making alarmist statements. The ambitions of cousin Yujiao and aunt are just written on their faces. Mom has always been careless, and dad can't keep an eye on you all the time. You have to take care of it yourself." Qiao Zhenzhen didn't finish the meal, but broke it into pieces and fed it to Mo Tingjin.

To prepare for this matter, it is really inappropriate for outsiders to be anxious but not tell the person involved. So since Mo Tingjin came to the door, Qiao Zhenzhen took this opportunity to explain what he said. As for whether he can listen to it later, it depends on himself. .

If it's Adou who can't be helped, she can at most solve it from the source after a few days.

But Qiao Zhenzhen still hopes that everyone in the Mo family can stand on their own, otherwise it will be easy for others to break through wherever they become weak points.

After a moment of silence, Mo Tingjin raised his head,

"Cousin Ren and I have become very close these days. I take him everywhere to play. Do I have to guard against him?"

Who is Cousin Ren? Xiao Wu’s son?

Qiao Zhenzhen said calmly, "Everyone in the Diao family must be careful not to be left alone. When the time comes, I will be alone and widowed, and I will not be able to explain. Don't let yourself end up in a situation where you are a mute eating Coptis chinensis and unable to explain your sufferings."

She thrust ten taels of silver into Mo Tingjin's hand.

Mo Tingjin stared at the money in his hand without saying a word. After a while, he said: "Little sister, you are different from before."

Qiao Zhenzhen laughed.

"Second brother, I'm going to get married soon." She didn't say much, but said sincerely, "It's time for you to grow up."

Mo Tingjin was stunned.

……

Qili Pavilion.

Mrs. Wu gritted her teeth and walked in. She pushed aside all the maids, looked around to make sure no one was around, and then closed the door.

"Humph, it's not that easy to drive me away!"

"Mother..." Hu Yujiao was worried, "Cousin, she..."

"That little bitch!" Xiao Wu cursed, "Who does she think she is? A loser who is about to get married. My mother has already found out. The two families are still arguing about the date of her wedding to the Duke of Guo. I want it sooner, but your uncle wants it later. Anyway, no matter if it’s early or late, that little bitch is from someone else’s family.”

A smile appeared on her sharp face, and she gently stroked Hu Yujiao's hair, "But you are different. You will be the master of this place in the future!"

Hu Yujiao shook her head, "Mom, but my aunt doesn't mean that. She has been paying so close attention to her second cousin recently that I can't even see him."

"Opportunities can be created." Little Wu whispered, "Recently, I asked your eldest brother to play with Brother Jin more often. In this way..."

"Mom wants to..." Hu Yujiao was shocked in her heart, "But I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of! This is called starving the brave to death and starving the timid to death. When you and brother Jin cook the rice, mother will naturally find a way to make your aunt and uncle willingly accept such a kiss!" Little Wu was filled with laughter. She is calculating and has a very proud face, as if her daughter has become the daughter-in-law of the Mo family.

Hu Yujiao was not as optimistic as Xiao Wu. She pursed her lips and swallowed what she wanted to say, her eyes filled with worry.

……

Qiao Zhenzhen saw off Mo Tingjin and received those who came from Lan Yuan to send greetings. Then she packed her luggage and distributed the gifts brought from the temple to each courtyard. It was already the Youzheng hour.

Lying comfortably on the bed, a bit of wind blowing in from the window, the embroidered flower curtain gently swayed, and the empty scented balls hanging on the bedside made a clear tinkling sound.

Qiao Zhenzhen closed her eyes, her consciousness gradually sinking.

Ten Wan searched the entire Mo Mansion for recent news and returned to Xuefuyuan. Seeing that Qiao Zhenzhen was sleeping without a quilt, he hooked his paws on the thin quilt to try to cover her belly.

Qiao Zhenzhen was awakened by the movement. When she saw it was ten thousand, she closed her eyes again with relief, "I'm back. Nothing happened at home recently."

"Except that your sister-in-law is giving birth in another month, there's nothing else going on."

"That's good."

Qiao Zhenzhen planned to take a nap and then get up to have dinner, but she heard Ten Thousand mutter, "What a pity, Han Zheng can't come to attend your haircut ceremony tomorrow."

Han Zheng's last letter mentioned his recent work arrangements.

It has been almost a month since Zen Master Mingtong entered the palace and the emperor made up his mind to order the imperial envoys to go to the prefectures and counties to organize the evacuation and resettlement of tens of thousands of local people. Local officials were short of manpower, so they deployed officers and soldiers from nearby military camps. Even the Army and Horse Department in the capital transferred some of their men, including Han Zheng.

Qiao Zhenzhen said: "Speaking of which, I don't know what the situation is over there. Counting the days, it's almost here."

"The old monk said it was around August 17th, not a few days away." Ten Wan said, "Last time you asked me to go, they were already harvesting crops. It's probably time to evacuate by now."

Qiao Zhenzhen said: "I guess things are not going smoothly, otherwise we wouldn't have to deploy so many people to help."

"Shouldn't you run away immediately when you hear there's a natural disaster?"

"People always have a sense of luck. Maybe they think that the people above are looking for trouble. People and their family's belongings and homes can be thrown away at any time. Only when a disaster is imminent can you know whether it is good or bad."

This was indeed what Qiao Zhenzhen said.

In every village and county, there are always some people who think they are smart and refuse to obey the arrangements to evacuate. The officials in charge of this matter have no choice but to search each house and kidnap those who disobey directly. This leads to a lot of extra work. Quantity and manpower shortage.
