On a June Day, the child’s face cleared up after a thunderstorm, like a rainbow hung in the clear blue sky that had been washed.

  When Qiao Jinniang heard that Fu Lu had given birth to a little daughter, she could not help but want to go out of the palace to take a look. She was extremely covetous of a daughter.

  Lu Chen brought Qiao Jinniang out of the palace secretly. When they arrived at the Qiao residence, not only did Qiao Jinniang not see the joy of the Hou Manor having a granddaughter, but she also saw the maidservant remove the red silk and the word “Happiness”that was used for the wedding the next day.

  Qiao Jinniang went to Fu Lu’s courtyard. Qiao Lu was not there, and neither was Shou an’s eldest princess. Only Qin Miaomiao was there.

  It was rare for Fu Lu to be weak and quiet. When he saw Qiao jinniang, he said, “You’re lying. You said that giving birth is very painful.”


  Qiao jinniang said, “Yes.”


  Fu Lu said, “It’s clearly not very painful. It’s clearly the kind of pain that can not be wished for life or death!”


  Qiao Jinniang smiled lightly. “It does hurt, but in the future, you will find that no matter how painful it is, it’s worth it. What about the child? Do you have a name for it?”


  Qin Miao passed the baby in his hand to Qiao Jinniang and said, “It hasn’t been given a big name yet, but its nickname is little rainbow. It’s rare to see a rainbow today.”


  “Where’s Ah Lui?”Qiao Jinniang carried the baby in her arms and asked, “Usually, as long as he goes to the yamen, you guys will always be together. Why isn’t he here today?”


  “Oh, he went to find Xie Yun to settle the score.”


  Fu Lu weakly told Qiao Jinniang that Qiao ruoi had Xie Yun’s child. Qiao jinniang said in surprise, “There’s such a thing? Why did ruoi keep it from us?”


  Fu Lu whispered, “I don’t know why she kept it a secret, but tomorrow, our Qiao residence will lose face. If the marriage doesn’t work out, there will probably be enmity.”.

  There was also Xie Yun. If Xie Yun wanted to take responsibility, he would have said that he was guilty. However, he never mentioned that he might not marry Ruoyi as his wife.”


  Qiao Jin said, “Ruoyi already has his child. Moreover, ruoyi also suffered an undeserved calamity that day. How can a man like him not take responsibility?”


  Qin Miao said, “In the aristocratic families, the first wife is like the clouds and mud. Moreover, Xie Yun is the eldest grandson of the first wife of the Xie family. Even if Ruoyi is the first wife’s daughter, he might not take a fancy to her, let alone a second wife’s daughter.”


  Lady Qiao Jin said coldly, “If that’s the case, why did he provoke ruoyi that day?”


  Fu Lu said softly, “If I had known earlier, I would not have drunk Xie Yun on purpose that day……”


  Lady Qiao Jin sighed helplessly. Speaking of which, it was true that Xie Yun did not deliberately make Qiao ruoyi pregnant……

  In the Xie family of Chang ‘an.

  When Marquis an Yuan and Qiao Lu entered, Qiao Lu very impolitely went up and grabbed Xie Yun’s collar. Xie Yun was calm, and the Xie family guards on both sides stepped forward.

  Xie Yun signaled for the guards to leave with her eyes, she said to Marquis an yuan and Qiao lui, “Marquis and uncle of the small country have graced us with their presence. I did not welcome you. Uncle of the small country barged into our xie residence and grabbed my collar. What do you mean?”


  Qiao Lui glared at Xie Yun and said, “You abandoned my sister. She is pregnant now. You have to give my sister an explanation.”


  Xie Yun frowned. “Pregnant?”


  An yuanhou said to Qiao lui, “Ah Lui, let go. Master Xie, it’s a foregone conclusion. My Daughter is pregnant. What plans does master Xie have?”


  Xie Yun said, “That day, your daughter and I were schemed against by others. The best way is for the fifth miss to abort the child. The Xie family will make up for it. In the future, things will be peaceful.”


  An yuanhou said angrily, “You want my daughter to abort the child? Do you know how harmful an abortion can be to a woman?”


  “It’s fine if you want to keep the child. It’s just that fifth Miss’s marriage is already difficult. If you have a child, I’m afraid it will be even more difficult.”


  Qiao lui stepped forward and punched Xie Yun’s face in anger. “How can you treat my sister so badly?”


  Xie Yun did not Dodge. After being punched, she straightened her sleeves and said, “What about your Marquisdom’s opinion?”


  Marquis an yuan said, “Naturally, it’s you who married Ruoyi to settle this matter and give birth to a legitimate child.”


  Xie Yun said, “The fifth lady in the residence is a concubine. I can only take her in as a concubine.”


  Qiao Lui was furious when he heard this. When he was about to attack again, Xie Yun used her fan to block Qiao Lui’s fist and said,

  “Master Qiao, uncle of the small kingdom, the fifth lady and I were schemed against at the Imperial Manor that day. If the Qiao family’s women aren’t willing to be concubines, then it’s better to abort the fetus. It’s best if everything goes well in the future.”


  An yuanhou saw the coldness in Xie Yun’s eyes and said angrily, “What do you mean everything goes well? If you’re so ruthless, don’t blame our Qiao family for being enemies with your Xie family.”


  An yuanhou and Qiao Lui left angrily.

  After they left, Xie Yun furrowed her brows slightly. When she recalled that day, she really wanted to peel off the skin of the two palace maids who had drugged him……

  After an yuanhou returned to the manor, he heard that Lu Chen and Qiao Jinniang had come and went to pay their respects.

  Zheng Xiao and old madam Qiao only returned from the Marquis Jing Wu’s manor during dinner time.

  Other than Fu Lu and Qiao ruoyi, who was resting in bed, the whole family was discussing Ruoyi’s matter in the hall.

  Zheng Xiao said, “That old madam of the Marquis of Jingwu has such a sharp mouth. It’s not enough that she has to apologize with double the dowry. It’s also fortunate that Ruoyi didn’t marry into the family.”


  Old Madam Qiao sighed and said, “We are also in the wrong in this matter. What did Patriarch Xie Say?”


  Qiao lui angrily said Patriarch Xie’s cold words, “He said that he can only take his sister as a concubine and will not marry his sister as a wife.”


  Qiao jinniang said angrily, “He harmed ruoyi and made her a concubine? Why a concubine? Everyone knows that my Qiao family’s daughter doesn’t want to be a concubine. He isn’t willing to marry her, but I have to give him an imperial decree to marry her!”


  Qiao Jinniang did not expect Xie Yun to be such a irresponsible person.

  Lu Chen calmly took a sip of tea and did not say anything.

  Old Madam Qiao sighed and said, “Your Highness, this matter is inappropriate. Who is patriarch Xie? He is the head of the aristocratic family. Although the aristocratic family is not as good as it used to be.

  However, when a hundred feet of worms die, it doesn’t freeze. Not only do the scholars in the world yearn for the aristocratic family to have a good time, even the Xie family’s power in Jiangnan isn’t shallow. Your Majesty has grown up in Jiangnan, so you should be aware of this.

  “If your Majesty were to force Xie Yun to marry my Qiao family’s daughter today, I’m afraid those scholars who yearn for the aristocratic family to have a good time tomorrow will have to hand in their memorials one by one……”


  An yuanhou said, “If the Xie family is unwilling to marry her, our Qiao family doesn’t care either. It’s not like we can’t support ruoyi and her child. The children that will be born in the future will have nothing to do with the Xie Family!”


  Zheng Xiao said, “That’s easy for you to say. is the name of having an illegitimate child so nice to hear?”


  An yuanhou said, “Then marry into a husband. I don’t believe that there isn’t a good man in the world who is willing to marry into a family!

  Even if there really isn’t a husband, just find a random man and give him a large sum of money. At most, we can divorce after giving birth to a child! The child will be born with a proper name.”


  Old Madam Qiao said, “This is the only way now. Xiao’er, the princess is going to give birth to a child and Ruo is going to stay in bed to take care of the child. You must take good care of her.”


  Zheng Xiao replied, “Yes, mother.”


  Qiao Jinniang frowned when she heard this.
