The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!
Chapter 151 Plan
People feel refreshed when good things happen. Ever since the Qiao family was ordered to move to the capital, the whole house is filled with a happy atmosphere.
Qiao Chengzong is now the head of the Qiao family, and he is also the only male of this generation.
Qiao Chengzong was the eldest son, and he had two younger sisters.
One is Qiao Yishuang, who married Mr. Jiang Erye of the Duke of Yingguo’s Mansion, and the other is Qiao Jingfei, who married far away in Jiangnan.
Now that they have been transferred to the capital, the Qiao family naturally moved.
Qiao Chengzong also has one son and two daughters, the eldest daughter Qiao Jiahui, the son Qiao Lijie, and the youngest daughter Qiao Jiayu.
The eldest daughter, Qiao Jiahui, is married, while the eldest son, Qiao Lijie, and the youngest daughter, Qiao Jiayu, are not yet married.
Qiao Chengzong was ambitious and unwilling to serve as an official in another place.
He finally got the chance to be promoted and returned to Beijing. He had to arrange the marriages of his children and strengthen the Qiao family.
It would take about four or five days to reach the capital, and Qiao Chengzong, who was staying at the inn, became more and more excited.
Mrs. Qiao pulled aside the curtain and walked in, holding a letter in her hand.
Qiao Chengzong restrained his smile and just looked at Madam Qiao with a slight smile: "What's the matter?"
Mrs. Qiao stepped forward and handed the letter to Qiao Chengzong, saying, "It's Wanwan's letter. My second sister will come to pick us up when we arrive in the capital."
Qiao Chengzong took the letter, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked into Madam Qiao's eyes: "Thank you for your hard work these days, Madam. Don't forget to take care of the Duke of Ying's Mansion when you arrive in the capital."
Mrs. Qiao nodded: "Of course, but has your husband thought about Wanwan's coming-of-age ceremony?"
Qiao Chengzong said, "Hasn't it been decided a long time ago? Why are you still asking?"
Mrs. Qiao hesitated: "Jiayu's coming-of-age ceremony is coming soon..."
"Stupid!" Qiao Chengzong looked at Madam Qiao coldly: "If you want Wanwan to marry you, you must be more careful."
"The Duke of Ying's family is so old, how could they have never seen any good things?"
"If you are not willing to give her a gift for her coming-of-age gift, how can you make her believe that you, her aunt, are sincere in treating her well?"
Qiao Chengzong looked unhappy, but he said patiently, "Don't be so superficial."
Mrs. Qiao smiled awkwardly when she heard this, "My husband is right. I didn't think this matter through."
Qiao Chengzong's eyes were sharp, as if he saw through Mrs. Qiao's thoughts, and he said, "Are you still determined to marry Jiayu to the son of the Duke of Ying?"
Mrs. Qiao waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no..."
"He is already married! Do you want my daughter to be a concubine?"
Qiao Chengzong had thought about marrying into the eldest branch of the Jiang family in the past, but Duke Yingguo had very high standards and set his sights on the Ming family, which had a long tradition of scholarship.
Although the Qiao family has some wealth, how can it compare with a century-old family like the Ming family?
Mrs. Qiao's face was pale and embarrassed, but she still argued: "Jiayu is also your daughter. If she can marry Jiang Tiyu, she will be the future Lady of the Duke of Ying!"
Qiao Chengzong cast a cold gaze on Madam Qiao and said, "I've already said that Jiang Tiyu is already married!"
Mrs. Qiao sneered: "It's not like the marriage can't be changed."
Qiao Chengzong looked at Mrs. Qiao, "Do you have a solution?"
Mrs. Qiao straightened her clothes and said, "There may not be a proper way, but there will always be opportunities in the backyard."
"After all, he is the future prince of England. Isn't your husband tempted?"
Qiao Chengzong was somewhat moved when he heard this. Naturally, he was more inclined to the eldest branch of the Jiang family than the second branch.
After all, the title belonged to the eldest branch of the Jiang family.
Qiao Chengzong thought about it and did not directly reject Mrs. Qiao's words.
Mrs. Qiao saw Qiao Chengzong's expression change. As they had been married for many years, she certainly understood Qiao Chengzong's plan.
He wanted to use Jiang Wanbai to curry favor with the Duke of Yingguo's family.
This was for the sake of her son's marriage, so Mrs. Qiao naturally had no objection.
But is my daughter’s marriage not important?
She just wanted her daughter to marry a British duke. So what if Jiang Tiyu was already engaged?
Wanbai said that the girl's family was in mourning for the death of an elder, so Jiang Tiyu's marriage was postponed.
Since it's postponed, there's a chance.
Mrs. Qiao didn't think about whether the means were legal or not. As long as she could marry into the Duke of England's mansion, how she would live in the future would naturally depend on the person.
"Don't worry, my husband. I won't be reckless in this matter. A girl's reputation is still important."
Qiao Chengzong raised his eyes and glanced at Mrs. Qiao. In fact, he didn't care that much about his daughter's reputation.
If his daughter could bring him some benefits in exchange for his official position, then of course that would be fine.
But such words could not come out of his mouth.
He nodded to Madam Qiao and said, "You must be careful. Being an official in the capital is different from being an official in other places. If you are reported by the censors, you will be in trouble."
Mrs. Qiao smiled slightly and nodded obediently: "I will listen to my husband."
Qiao Chengzong waved his hand and asked Mrs. Qiao to leave.
He looked towards the direction of the capital. Since he, Qiao Chengzong, had the ability to come to the capital, he naturally wanted to take root firmly in the capital!

When the princess said she wanted to visit, she really meant it.
He personally ordered a lot of good things from the private warehouse and took Lu Qingxiao to the Duke of England's Mansion.
When Old Lady Yan heard that Princess Boyang brought the young general to her house, she was a little surprised.
Old Madam Yan went to welcome the eldest princess in person.
The eldest princess was very happy to see the old lady again today, and she went all the way to the main hall of Chunhui Hall.
Old Madam Yan guessed the purpose of the eldest princess's visit. She glanced at Nanny Cheng, and Nanny Cheng sent someone to invite the Sixth Miss.
The old lady and the eldest princess sat at the top.
The old lady said first: "Your Highness came today just in time to ask my little granddaughter to come and thank you. Last time she was in danger, the precious ginseng Your Highness sent has not yet been brought to the mansion to thank you."
When Princess Boyang heard this, her smile froze slightly. She looked at Lu Qingxiao. Ginseng?
She did ask someone to send some precious supplements over, but the doctor said that ginseng was not needed. Did this guy send it secretly?
The eldest princess took note of this in her heart. He sent it privately in his own name, which made her, as a mother, seem so stingy.
The princess first turned around and glared at Lu Qingxiao, then smiled at the old lady and said, "How is Xiao Zhiyue recuperating? I haven't seen her for a long time, and I miss her a little."
The old lady was chatting and laughing with the eldest princess, while Lu Qingxiao stood beside the eldest princess, acting as a wooden stake.
Jiang Zhiyue arrived at the main hall of Chunhui Hall and saw Lu Qingxiao the first thing he saw when he entered.
Lu Qingxiao was very perceptive. He immediately glanced over and saw that it was Jiang Zhiyue. The corners of his mouth slightly raised and he nodded to her.
Jiang Zhiyue blinked and stepped forward to pay his respects to the eldest princess and the old lady.
As soon as the eldest princess saw Jiang Zhiyue, she smiled kindly and waved for her to come over.
Jiang Zhiyue walked to the side of the eldest princess. The eldest princess looked at her carefully and asked with a smile: "Have you recovered? I heard from Wubing that you injured your hand. How are you now?"
Jiang Zhiyue looked at Lu Qingxiao in surprise. She didn't expect that he would tell the princess about his injuries.
