Qiao Zuzhang listened to Lin's crying with a headache. His eyebrows frowned into deep grooves and asked Qiao Zhaoyin directly: "Yin'er, why don't you go to school today?"

Qiao Zhaoyin didn't dare to tell the truth to Qiao Zuzhang, so he could only whisper: "Father, I had a headache when I woke up early, so I sent the servant to the school to ask for leave."

Qiao Zuzhang only felt that his head was the real pain. He looked at Lin, who was crying very sadly, and Qiao Weilan, who had a righteous expression on his face, turned to look at Qiao Zhaoyin and said earnestly: "Yin'er, your nephew is so old, and his father is old."

This is the first time Qiao Zuzhang admitted that he is old in front of others. He did not admit this fact before. He believed that his beautiful wife was by his side and he was still a long way from old age.

Lin cried for a long time. Seeing Qiao Zuzhang's expression full of indifferent expression, her heart sank and then sinking, and hearing Qiao Zuzhang say that he is old, Lin raised his head and said, "Master, you are not old, you are at the age of a strong and prosperous person."

Qiao Zuzhang looked at Lin's swollen eyes and sighed: "You used to cry for the middle of the night. When you woke up the next day, your eyes were as good as usual. Look at your eyes now that there is only a slit left. You are like this. How can I not grow old?"

Lin's tears were hanging on the edge of her eyes. She reached out to wipe her eyes. She turned her head and asked Qiao Zhaoyin and Qiao Weilan: "Yin'er, Lan'er, is her mother very old?"

Qiao Zhaoyin shook his head and said, "Mother, you are not old. My sister and I are not very old. You should cry less in the future. You will feel uncomfortable if you have such eyes, right?"

After observing Lin for a moment, Qiao Weilan nodded and said, "Mother, you are swollen now. It looks much older than usual. Don't cry anymore, and I won't dare to cry anymore."

Lin had no intention of talking to Qiao Zuzhang at this time. Qiao Zuzhang did not ask the girl to respect her. I think that girl was just a decoration, and she would not be angry with the decoration.

After Lin talked about the grievances of the Lin family, he looked at Qiao Zuzhang as if he was going to make trouble and said, "There is no you in the eyes of that family. If you don't deal with them this time, you will be even more shameless in the Qiao family in the future."

Qiao Zuzhang looked at Qiao Zhaoyin and Qiao Weilan and said, "You two should retreat, I have something to say with your mother."

Qiao Zhaoyin looked at the expression on Qiao Zuzhang's face. When he saw Qiao Weilan insisting on staying, he directly reached out to pull Qiao Weilan out of the room door. After the brother and sister left the study, Qiao Weilan wanted to turn around and directly stretched out his hand to pull Qiao Zhaoyin.

Qiao Weilan's body was tilted. After she stood firm, she looked at Qiao Zhaoyin and said, "Brother, let's stay and we can also help our mother speak in front of her father."

Qiao Zhaoyin looked at Qiao Weilan and sighed a few times, "Lan'er, if you continue to be so stupid, your father will not like you sooner or later. You learn to be more tactful. Father will be more obedient to your mother when he sees you being obedient."

Qiao Zhaoyin looked up at the girls standing in the yard. He let go. Qiao Weilan looked at him in his eyes. She saw the girl with a strange face at first glance. She looked up at Qiao Zhaoyin, but saw him quickly step out of the yard door.

She hurriedly chased after her, pulled Qiao Zhaoyin's sleeve outside the yard door, and said, "Brother, I saw that shameless girl. Why are you leaving? We should go over and warn her."

Qiao Zhaoyin stared at Qiao Weilan and whispered: "Lan'er, you're just a girl. You need us to go over and warn her, you're too proud of her.

Let’s go, I’m going back to study, you can learn to do some needlework. Don’t wander around outside every day. The more you go around, the more you go, the more trouble you have. If you calm down, learn piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and needlework. My father will treat you better than Chaofang.”

Qiao Zhaoyin no longer wants to do things between his uncle and Qiao family at this time. Anyway, in the end, it will be a big deal. Then when there is nothing wrong, the Lin family will not cut off contact with the Qiao family, and the Qiao family will not break off friendship with the Lin family for no reason.

In the study, Lin and Qiao Zuzhang asked Qiao Zhaoshi and his family to come to the door to apologize to the Lin family, so that she would calm down. Otherwise, as a mother, she would have a way to deal with the younger generations.

After hearing Lin's words, Qiao Zuzhang signaled Lin's eyes to the girl in the yard. Lin followed his sign and naturally saw the girl with a strange face. She turned to look at Qiao Zuzhang and whispered: "Master, what do you mean?"

Qiao Zuzhang looked at Lin and sighed: "That's not what I mean, that's what my father warned me and you. If you don't understand, just wait to drink the tea my concubine gave you."

Lin's expression changed. She looked at Qiao Zuzhang and whispered: "Master, are you asking me to cry and blindly? Just such an ordinary girl, can you still have any ideas about her?"

Qiao Zuzhang looked at Lin and said in a low voice: "What is the purpose of the little girls from the Lin family coming to Qiao's family? Everyone sees it. Your family wants to take this opportunity to suppress Shi'er's family, but unexpectedly they encounter a solid stone, right?"

Lin's face turned blue and red, and he said bluntly: "Our Lin family doesn't know anyone in the capital. If there is such an opportunity, people in the capital can know the little girls of the Lin family. Do you think I did something wrong?"

Qiao Zuzhang shook his head and said, "You are not wrong in terms of reason. It's just that your family is too eager for quick success and instant benefits. They are blocking their way in the master's house. Don't blame Brother Xuan'er for saying this about the Lin woman.

I am usually drunk, and my father always sends servants to take care of me. Yesterday, my father assigned a girl to take care of me, and for one night, how can you deal with the girl assigned by my father? If you really want me to take a concubine, you can do whatever you want."

Lin's mood was ups and downs. She promised her family that she would seek justice for them, but Qiao Zuzhang's meaning showed that if she used her elders to make things difficult for the family, he would take a concubine.

Lin was so frustrated that his chest was aching. Qiao Zuzhang could see that she was not pretending this time. He quickly called someone to send Lin back and sent someone to hire a doctor outside.

After the chaos in Qiao Zuzhang and Lin's yard, Na's family learned about this, she sent someone to inform Dai's mother and daughter. She took Qiao Chaofang to visit Lin's family by herself.

Naturally, the Lin family would not see Na's mother and daughter, and Qiao Zuzhang would not do anything to add fuel to the fire at this time, so Na's mother and daughter were waiting in the yard.
