Chapter 242 General Shao made Miss Qiao cry

  Champion Hou brought his uncle and brother to live in his mansion because his deceased wife told a dream that a white tiger in Shangshu mansion had eaten his brother.

  People in the world believe in dreams, and they like to ponder the meaning of dreams reflected in reality.

   This gossip spread so much that those ordinary people who didn't know the situation of the upper class could just watch it lively, and the female relatives of many noble officials began to discuss it vigorously.

"Let me tell you, all the things I dream about in this dream allude to people. The white-haired tiger who devoured Mr. Qiao must be someone who wants to harm Mr. Qiao. That's why the wife of the champion can be. Don't worry, brother, come and dream."

   "No way, Young Master Qiao lives in his grandfather's house, how could anyone harm him?"

"It's hard to say. There is nothing wrong with the big family, even if they live in their own homes, and they are not alone. The rumors say that the white-haired tiger is in the Shangshu Mansion, which proves that Mr. Qiao was harmed. The people are in the Shangshu Mansion."

   "No wonder the champion Hou took Young Master Qiao away overnight. You say, who is this white-haired tiger?"

   One by one bored people pondered carefully.

   When people think of a certain family, they naturally think of their masters first.

   A round-faced woman suddenly realized: "I see!"

   The gazes from everyone made her desire to talk even stronger: "It's the eldest lady of Kou Shangshu's mansion, Mrs. Mao! White-haired tiger, what do you think?"

   "Yeah." Everyone was stunned.

   "That's right, the Mao family is exactly a tiger!" Following this line of thought, another woman said.

   While everyone was talking about it, another woman gasped: "I don't know if you know, Mao's grandfather's family is surnamed Bai!"

   "This can't be wrong, the white-haired tiger must be referring to Mao's family. But what did she do to Mr. Qiao?"

   "Then who knows? Maybe he thinks Mr. Qiao is burdensome and doesn't want to keep raising him? After all, being an aunt is still a layer away."

   After this rumor spread to Shao Mingyuan, he was stunned for a while while sitting under the grape trellis and drinking tea, and instructed his personal guard: "Contact Chenguang, and invite Miss Li to come to Chunfenglou to see you."

  Qiao Zhao received a message from Chenguang and came to Chunfenglou.

   "What is General Shao looking for from me?"

   "I heard the rumor below."

   "Oh." Qiao Zhao's face was calm, but he was puzzled: Shao Mingyuan specially asked her to come here to exchange gossip? He's not like that.

   Shao Mingyuan looked at Qiao Zhao: "Did the rumor spread from Miss Li?"

  Qiao Zhao was startled, then his face darkened: "General Shao speaks so directly?"

   They don’t know each other well, so this person doesn’t feel that they have deep conversations. How can he not save a little face for girls and directly ask if they are rumor-mongers?

  Eh, even though she made the rumors, it’s true.

   Shao Mingyuan was also stunned.

  Why is Miss Li angry? He and his subordinates discuss the military situation like this. Isn't it more efficient to be direct?

   "Does Miss Li know who spread the rumors?" The young general pondered for a while, and decided to follow the rules of kindness and ask for a more euphemistic way.

   Miss Qiao's face turned even darker.

   How could this person ask the question!

  Shao Mingyuan: "..." He better not speak!

   "It's me." Qiao Zhao decided not to care about this person.

   Seeing Shao Mingyuan's silence, she asked, "What's wrong?"

   "I think it's better to respect my brother-in-law's wishes in this matter. After all, this is my brother-in-law's private affairs, and there may be some secrets involved..."

   Shao Mingyuan couldn't go on, because he suddenly realized that the little girl in front of him was crying.

   Maybe it wasn't a cry, but those beautiful eyes suddenly contained water, and he was aggrieved like a deer running in the woods and seeing a stranger.

   Shao Mingyuan was a little confused.

   He has always admired Miss Li. Although she was still young, he never regarded her as a little girl.

   She is more like a friend who can be on an equal footing with him.

   Now I know that no matter what, Miss Li is still a girl, different from his comrades.

   But what did he say that made Miss Li cry?

   "General Shao thinks I'm nosy?" Qiao Zhao asked with pursed lips.

   She knew that she should not be wronged, she is not Qiao Zhao now.

   is not the elder brother's sister, nor the wife of the person in front of him.

   In everyone's eyes, she is a girl who is nosy and worrying about her own affairs and is not at all restless.

   But she didn't feel wronged in front of everyone, she couldn't help it in front of Shao Mingyuan.

   He shot her to death, how dare you say she is nosy?

   This shameless bastard!

   Miss Qiao thought about it, and the tears she had been holding back fell like beads with a broken thread.

   Shao Mingyuan was at a loss.

   He really didn't say anything, Miss Li is obviously not such a vexatious person, so what went wrong?

   "Miss Li, I'm sorry, you, you better stop crying—"

   Chengguang and Binglu, who were standing not far away, glanced here from time to time, and Shao Mingyuan had the urge to run away.

   "I can't mind my own business, can't I even cry?" the girl asked with tears in her eyes.

   "Yes, of course I can... But there's really nothing to cry..." The young general persuaded dryly.

  Qiao Zhao was even more angry.

   She is already very restrained, if it were another girl, she would have cried to death!

   He actually said - there's nothing to cry about!

   There's nothing to cry about, what does this **** know!

   Miss Qiao suddenly stood up, kicked Shao Mingyuan in the calf, turned around and left.

   "Ice green, morning light, let's go home!"

   Ice Green and Morning Light ran over.

   "Girl, why are you crying?" Binglu was startled, turned her head and asked Shao Mingyuan, "General Shao, did you bully our girl?"

   Shao Mingyuan lowered his head silently, looking at his calf that had been kicked.

  The girl has little strength, and the kick was like a little bit of water to him, so light that he could barely feel it.

   However, it seemed to kick him in the heart again, making it difficult for him to return to his senses.

   He was actually kicked by a girl, and the girl seemed to be very wronged.

   But why is that?

   "Ice green, stop talking, let's go." Miss Qiao walked away.

   Binglu glared at Shao Mingyuan and hurriedly chased after him.

   Chenguang shook his head again and again, hating iron for not being steel: "General, girls can't be bullied, they have to be coaxed."

   "I didn't do anything." Facing his subordinates, the young general was calm.

   He has never coaxed girls, and besides, he has no plans to marry another wife, so it's not appropriate to coax girls other than his wife, right?

   "It's impossible not to do anything. The third girl is the strongest girl my subordinates have ever seen. You must have done something very serious, General, to make her cry."

   Could it be that the general molested the third girl? Hey, hey, the general is great!

  Shao Mingyuan thought about it seriously, and said, "I seem to have said that she is nosy - Chenguang, what's wrong with you?"
