Chapter 1291: I’m Here for Qiao Chen

“Young Madam.” Uncle Zhang greeted her respectfully. He looked into the car and saw that she was alone. Uncle Zhang couldn’t help but ask, “Young Master didn’t come back with Young Madam?”

“He’s at work, I came back alone.”

As Qiao Mianmian walked in, she asked Uncle Zhang, “What’s the matter at home?”

Madam Mo took the initiative to call her and told her to come back for dinner. Her attitude towards her was unprecedentedly friendly.

This made Qiao Mianmian feel a little strange.

“Old Madam isn’t at home today, and there’s nothing at home. Why did Young Madam suddenly come back alone? Is Young Madam here to see Old Madam? You should have called beforehand to ask, then you wouldn’t have come for nothing.”

Qiao Mianmian stopped in her tracks.

She turned to Uncle Zhang and frowned. “Grandma isn’t home?”

“Yes,” Uncle Zhang said respectfully. “Old Madam goes to the temple on the first and fifteenth of every month. Old Madam just left not too long ago.”

Qiao Mianmian pursed her lips.

So, Madam Mo called her not long after Old Madam left?

Madam Mo especially picked the time when Old Madam wasn’t around to ask her to return to the Mo family. This made Qiao Mianmian more cautious. She said to Uncle Zhang, “Mom called me and asked me to come back for lunch. I thought this was Old Madam’s idea, but Old Madam isn’t around?”

“Madam called you?” Uncle Zhang pondered for a while before saying, “Then, Madam might have something to tell Young Madam. Oh right, Second Madam is here too. Young Madam, you haven’t seen Second Madam, right?”

“Second Madam?”

“Mm, our Second Master’s wife is Madam’s Second Aunt.”

Qiao Mianmian’s expression changed.

She suddenly had a bad feeling.

This Second Madam was probably here for Qiao Chen.

Madam Mo called her because of this Second Madam.

Qiao Mianmian thought for a while and asked, “Is Second Uncle around?”

“Second Old Master isn’t here. Second Madam came alone.” Uncle Zhang hesitated for a while before reminding her. “Young Madam, Second Madam might be here because of Young Master Qiao Chen. Second Madam... isn’t an easy person to get along with. Moreover, Young Master Qiao Chen is outside with Second Old Master... In any case, try to get along with her and speak nicely.”

Qiao Mianmian understood what Uncle Zhang meant.

Because Qiao Chen was the child of Second Master Mo and another woman. To put it bluntly, he was an illegitimate child.

This was definitely not something that Second Madam Mo could accept.

Old Madam and Second Master Mo were very willing to let Qiao Chen acknowledge his ancestors.

After all, to them, one was their biological grandson and the other was their biological son. They were related by blood.

But Qiao Chen and Second Madam weren’t related by blood.

“Young Madam, you don’t have to worry too much.” Uncle Zhang could tell that she was worried, so he comforted her gently. “Second Madam might just be here to understand some things from you. You and Young Master Qiao Chen grew up together, and your relationship has always been good. You must know Young Master Qiao Chen very well.

“Second Madam couldn’t find Young Master Qiao Chen directly, so she looked for you.

“Moreover, no matter what Second Madam thinks, she wouldn’t dare to say anything after Old Madam sent the message.”
