Qiao Mu peered around before secretly pulling Duan Yue to the side and whispering, “I suspect something fishy about this person.”
“You called him ‘Snake Beauty’ just now? Now who is that,” Duan Yue also couldn’t help inquiring in a whisper.
“It’s a pervert.” Qiao Mu harrumphed. “It’s a fellow you especially want to beat up after seeing.”
Duan Yue silently twitched his mouth, and then he concluded in certainty, “That person must be particularly ugly, right!”

Qiao Mu nodded. On the other hand, Qiao Zhongbang found it a bit amusing as he watched the backs of the two taking counsel together with huddled heads. He coughed and said, “Qiaoqiao, Dad will be making a trip to the capital hall and come back at noon.”
At this, Qiao Mu turned to look at Qiao Zhongbang. She knew that her dad was going there to follow up with the Qiao main family’s matter, so she nodded before watching him leave.
“Qiaoqiao, then we’ve made an appointment. I’ll be coming to pick you up in a few days at night.” After Duan Yue waved goodbye with his paw, Qiao Mu sent the three kiddos back to the estate, going to speak with her mother at Beautiful Vista Court afterwards.
It just so happened that her mother had finished delegating some affairs and was free, and upon seeing her walk in, her mother beckoned to her joyously.
“Qiaoqiao, you’ve come at the right time. Mom was just planning to go speak with you.”
“Mom, what do you want to say?”
Wei Ziqin held her daughter’s hand as she walked to the side and sat down. “The main family’s people have all been imprisoned, right. From Xiao Mo’s words, it seems as if he wants to send all of them into exile. Mom was thinking, Old Sixth Qiao’s family was also implicated for no reason. Is there a way to bail them out?”
“The Highest Judiciary hasn’t passed any judgements yet. So it’s still unknown what will happen.” Qiao Mu said impassively, “Mom, exile isn’t Mo Lian’s idea, it’s mine. I want these people to completely vanish from my sight.”
Wei Ziqin’s heart squeezed. “Then your grandmother?”
However, Qiao Mu was expressionless. “Is Dad also thinking of bailing out the elderly lady.”
Qiao Mu found it repulsive to even call her ‘grandmother,’ so she did not want to make herself suffer.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis elderly lady wasn’t much different from in her past life, with her kicking up a fuss all day long. She only had herself to blame for being in this state today.
Wei Ziqin sighed. “Although your grandmother bitterly disappointed your father, but she is your dad’s old mother no matter what. Sigh, let it be. You don’t have to bother about this matter, just let your dad handle it.”
Qiao Mu gave a noncommittal nod.
“Do you have a way to bail out Old Sixth Qiao’s family?” Wei Ziqin asked again, “If they don’t have a place to stay in, we could…”
“Mom.” Qiao Mu swayed her mother’s hand. “Don’t worry about this stuff. Also don’t think of inconveniencing yourself by bringing them back here. Several years ago, when we brought the elderly lady back, didn’t you find it tiring to wait on her all day long? Now, you want to bring some relatives back again and attend to them. All in all, it is hard to fathom a person’s mind after so many years. Old Sixth Qiao’s family is not suited to live in our estate.”
After glancing at her daughter, Wei Ziqin sighed helplessly. “Daughter, in any case, we and your Sixth Uncle have been neighbors for so many years. Mom also wishes that they can live well.”
“Fine.” Qiao Mu nodded. “I’ll make arrangements for them.”
“As for the others, Mom, don’t worry about them. Is it not nice for them to leave our sight? If you’re idle, you can embroider flowers and grow greens. Isn’t that even better? There’s no need to bring these ancestors back to worship! Even if you don’t find it tiring, I feel tired for you!”
“Okay!” Wei Ziqin looked at her daughter in both amusement and exasperation. “Mom knows that you love your mother dearly. Mom understands.”
