Chapter 1288: I Came Here for Qiao Chen
"Young Madam." Zhang Bo called her respectfully when he saw her, and looked into the car. Seeing that she was the only one back, Zhang Bo couldn't help asking, "Didn't the young master come back with the young madam?"
"He was at work, I came back alone."
Qiao Mianmian walked in and asked Zhang Bo: "Is there anything wrong at home?"
Mrs. Mo took the initiative to call her and asked her to come back for dinner. Her attitude towards her was also unprecedentedly friendly.
This made Qiao Mianmian feel a little strange.
"The old lady is not at home today, and there is nothing going on at home. Why did the young madam suddenly think of coming back alone? Did the young madam come back to see the old lady? You should have called in advance to ask, so you don't have to go in vain."
Qiao Mianmian paused.
She turned her head to look at Zhang Bo, frowning: "Is grandma not at home?"
"Yes." Zhang Bo said respectfully, "On the first and fifteenth day of every month, the old lady will go to the temple to stay for a day. The old lady just left not long ago."
Qiao Mianmian pursed her lips.
So, Madam Mo called her not long after the old lady left? Madam Mo specifically asked her to return to the Mo family when the old lady was not around, which made Qiao Mianmian more alert. She said to Zhang Bo: "It was my mother who called me and asked me to come back for lunch. I thought it was the old lady's intention, but it turns out that the old lady is not here." "Madam called you?" Zhang Bo pondered for a moment, then said, "Maybe Madam has something to say to the young lady. By the way, the second lady is also here. Young lady, you haven't met the second lady yet, right?" "The second lady?" "Yes, our second master's wife, that is, your second aunt." Qiao Mianmian's face changed slightly. She suddenly had a bad premonition. I'm afraid that this second lady came for Qiao Chen. Madam Mo called her because of this second lady. Qiao Mianmian thought for a moment and asked, "Is the second uncle here?"
"The second master is not here, and the second lady came alone." Zhang Bo's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation. After thinking for a while, he reminded, "Young Madam, the second lady may have come for the matter of Young Master Qiao Chen. The second lady... is not a very easy person to get along with, and Young Master Qiao Chen is the second master's outside... In short, you should try to follow her in everything and speak nicely." Zhang Bo said it tactfully, but Qiao Mianmian understood it.
Because Qiao Chen is the child born outside by the second master of the Mo family and another woman. To put it bluntly, it is an illegitimate child.
This is definitely not an easy thing for the second lady of the Mo family to accept.
The old lady and the second master of the Mo family are very happy for Qiao Chen to recognize his ancestors.
After all, for them, one is their own grandson and the other is their own son, and they are both related to them by blood.
But Qiao Chen and the second lady have no blood relationship at all.
"Young Madam, don't worry too much." Perhaps Zhang Bo saw her uneasiness, and said in a gentle voice, "Second Madam may just come to ask you about some situations. You and Young Master Qiao Chen grew up together, and your relationship has always been very good. You must know Young Master Qiao Chen very well."
"Second Madam couldn't find Young Master Qiao Chen directly, so she found you."
"Besides, no matter what Second Madam thinks, she dare not say anything after the old lady has spoken."
