The system asked me to chase his wife

Xia Mang had no idea how rude and inappropriate his behavior was.

She just felt reluctant to part with that last piece of dessert.

Looking at Qiao Yuandong's thin body, Xia Mang decided to give him up reluctantly.

Madam, you are too thin. You need to eat more!
Facing Xia Mang's sparkling eyes, Qiao Yuandong found it difficult to say no.

She looked at the remaining dessert on her plate.

Because it is pressed underneath, the corners are a little deformed and look a bit ugly.

In the past, such snacks would never have appeared in Qiao Yuandong's sight.

"That's it, thank you very much."

Qiao Yuandong wiped his fingers with a piece of silk and picked up the dessert.

The snack that Xia Mang could eat in one bite took Qiao Yuandong four bites to finish.

In order to prevent the crumbs from falling on her body, Qiao Yuandong held her other hand to her mouth. She ate slowly and gracefully, without any of the runny fillings getting on her fingertips.

Xia Mang watched Qiao Yuandong slowly finish her snacks, and felt from the bottom of her heart that if the lady were to start a food show in modern times, there would definitely be people willing to watch it.

At least she's willing to watch!
After finishing the snacks, Qiao Yuandong picked up the tea and took two sips.

"Madam, are you full?"

Xia Mang waited until Qiao Yuandong stopped moving before asking her.

If Qiao Yuandong was not full, she didn't mind sharing the snacks in her pocket.

Qiao Yuandong was willing to bring her here to eat delicious food because she thought his wife was good from the bottom of her heart!
Qiao Yuandong nodded, but felt a little funny in his heart.

I brought her here to fill her stomach, but how come I ended up eating it myself?

After sitting for a while, Qiao Yuandong returned to his seat.

By then the banquet was almost over and the female guests were ready to move to the stage to watch the show.

Rongzhu finally stopped having diarrhea, and she came to find Qiao Yuandong and Xia Mang with a pale face.

When Rongzhu saw Xia Mang, her face turned red.

She came close to Xia Mang and thanked him softly. Xia Mang knew why she did that.

She smiled and said, "I think the medicine is useful, right?"

That was the medicine she bought from the mall for 100 points. In order to get Rongzhu to take it, the two of them almost had a fight.

Rong Zhu apologized to Xia Mang with some shame: "It's my fault for not knowing how to appreciate kindness. I thought you were going to poison me."

Rongzhu still remembers that she was about to faint, but she saw Xia Mang quietly adding strange medicine powder into the water she drank. She thought Xia Mang wanted to poison her.

Xia Mang waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Oh! Where would I get the money to buy poison?"

Rongzhu: “.”

Rongzhu, feeling that she had recovered, enthusiastically took over Xia Mang's job in order to repay her kindness.

Xia Mang readily handed over the work and went to relax happily.

When noble families from the capital came to visit, they also brought their own maids with them.

Xia Mang also met an acquaintance because of this. On the day of the flower-viewing banquet, she had dinner with the maid standing in the corridor!
As a social expert, Xia Mang quickly became familiar with the maid.

Upon asking about her origins, it turned out that she was a maid brought by Mrs. Liu, the commander of the City Defense Department, and her name was Shang Lian.

Shang Lian was also equally sociable. People like them were brought out by their masters in order to communicate with the servants of each household.

You can often get a lot of information that you can't get on a normal day.

Xia Mang didn't realize that Shang Lian was trying to trick her, but she was smart, and whenever Shang Lian asked her about the Duke's Mansion, she would say something nice.

Just kidding, only when the leader is good can you be good!

This is the basic quality that a standard corporate animal should possess!

The two talked about the flower-viewing banquet, and Xia Mang realized that the woman who brought Qiao Yuandong's yellow orchid home that day was actually the little girl of Lord Liu.

Thinking of the scene when Liu Wu Niangzi angrily scolded the young ladies that day, Xia Mang had a good impression of her.

Xia Mang is never stingy with his good words towards people he likes.

Shang Lian was very pleased to see her young master being praised.

Then Xia Mang learned that Lady Liu Wu was still unmarried, and Madam Liu was looking for a man in the capital.

Xia Mang then generously promoted Xiang Xiu'an.

You said your wife is thirteen years old?
That’s perfect. My young master is fifteen this year. How perfect, don’t you think?
You said your little lady has been spoiled since she was young and has a bad temper?

It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s cute if a girl has a little temper, so that she won’t be bullied when she enters her husband’s home!

You don't know that our prince has a good temper, is willing to make progress, and looks good.
Looking at Xia Mang who was talking nonstop, Shang Lian was a little dazed for a moment.

Was she chatting with her colleagues or with the matchmaker?

At that time, Xiang Xiu'an, who was writing an article in the private school, couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

The young man looked up at the bright sun outside and asked in confusion, "Is the weather going to change?"

Rongzhu accompanied Qiao Yuandong to watch a play. Lian Cai, Feng's maid, came over and said that the lady had something to discuss with her.

Lian Cai was a maid whom Feng trusted, so Qiao Yuandong and Rong Zhu did not doubt her words.

After saying goodbye to the ladies around her, Qiao Yuandong followed Lian Cai to look for Feng.

The three of them walked out of the theater, passed through the porch, turned into a corner door, and came to a secluded little courtyard.

"Where's mother?"

Qiao Yuandong looked around but couldn't see Feng, so he couldn't help but ask.

Lian Cai smiled and replied, "Madam is entertaining guests. She asked me to take Miss here to rest for a while. She will be here soon."

Qiao Yuandong nodded without any doubt.

There was a grape rack in the courtyard and a stone table and stone bench in the shade. Qiao Yuandong simply took Rongzhu there to cool off.

Lian Cai served tea and snacks to Qiao Yuandong, and then called Rong Zhu: "You have been away from home for so many years, and we haven't talked for a long time. Why don't we go over there and have a good chat?"

Rongzhu was a maid from the Qiao Mansion. Before Qiao Yuandong got married, she and Lian Cai were very good friends.

Lian Cai suggested this, and Rong Zhu was naturally very tempted. "You go ahead, I'll rest here alone." Qiao Yuandong just wanted to be alone, so he agreed.

"Madam, if you need anything, call me. I won't go far."

Rongzhu happily went with Liancai.

Qiao Yuandong sat at the stone table sipping tea. A breeze blew through the grape trellis, bringing a cool feeling that made her feel very comfortable.

Compared to the noisy and bustling environment in front, Qiao Yuandong prefers this quiet courtyard.

She used to like crowded places, but she didn't know when her personality changed and she now likes quietness.

Perhaps it was easy to hear biased remarks when there were many people around. Although she had no intention of arguing with others, it would disturb her mood after all, so it was better to avoid them.

Just as I was daydreaming, I heard the sound of slow footsteps at the gate of the courtyard.

Qiao Yuandong thought it was Rongzhu who came back, so he turned around to look.

"Mr. Yun?!"

Yun Xingqing obviously did not expect to meet Qiao Yuandong here. The moment he saw her, there was a moment of stunned expression on his face.

Immediately, a blush quickly appeared on that handsome and fair face.

"Dong, Dong mother." Yun Xingqing was a little embarrassed.

He was taken to the yard by a maid to change clothes because his robe was accidentally wet by wine during the banquet. He never expected to end up here.

Yun Xingqing hid the stained sleeve somewhat embarrassedly.

He was wearing a dark green robe with gold brocade today, so even though it was wet with wine, it was not very noticeable.

But Yun Xingqing inexplicably didn't want Qiao Yuandong to see him being rude.

He moved his steps and then stopped. Reason told him that he should leave this place immediately.

Yet every part of my body protested strongly against this idea.

Men and women from aristocratic families often use such means to meet secretly. When Yun Xingqing saw Qiao Yuandong, he realized that the meeting between the two was probably deliberately facilitated by someone.

The only person who could accomplish this in the residence of the Minister of the Central Secretariat, Lord Qiao, is probably Madam Qiao.

In this way, you don't have to worry about being known by others, nor will you be framed by someone with ulterior motives.

Yun Xingqing convinced himself and mustered up the courage to look up at Qiao Yuandong.

But all I saw was her calm eyes, like an eternally silent stone.

The happy and lively little girl in my memory eventually disappeared in the passage of time.

Yun Xingqing sighed for no reason.

He restrained his emotions, stood a few feet away from Qiao Yuandong, and asked softly, "How have you been lately?"

Knowing that there was no one here and that it was Mrs. Qiao who could make the arrangements, Yun Xingqing was unwilling to offend Qiao Yuandong.

Qiao Yuandong looked at him for a long while before saying, "There's no one else here, so there's no need to be so polite."

Yun Xingqing failed in a second.

Yun Xingqing, who everyone in the capital city praised as a gentleman, immediately crossed his shoulders.

He let out an exaggerated breath: "I was shocked. It turns out there really is no one else."

Qiao Yuandong: “.”

Childhood sweethearts grew up together, who doesn’t know each other?

When Xia Mang was chatting about all sorts of things with a few new maids, the ding-dong sound that had been silent in her head for a long time finally started to ring.

'Ding! Host, please find the target person Qiao Yuandong immediately!'

When Xia Mang first heard the voice, he didn't react until the system emphasized it again.

'Ding! Host, please find the target person Qiao Yuandong immediately!'

Xia Mang stood up suddenly, startling the people in front of him.

Shang Lian looked at her timidly: "What's going on?"

Xia Mang didn't have time to explain to Shang Lian and the others. She walked hurriedly to the corridor, leaving a series of voices behind her.

"Remember to tell your wife about what I mentioned to you earlier!"

Xia Mang hurriedly ran out of the banquet hall, looking at the road ahead but not knowing which way to go.

'What's wrong, madam? Did something happen?'

Xia Mang asked the system with some concern.

Rongzhu has been following Qiao Yuandong, so there shouldn't be any problems.

In response to Xia Mang's question, the system did not give much explanation, but directly pointed her in the right direction.

Xia Mang didn't understand what was going on, but he still went in the direction indicated by the system.

Xia Mang walked hurriedly all the way, and kept asking the system what had happened.

The system was annoyed by the questions and had to answer after hesitating for a long time.

"Nothing, she is just entangled with an irrelevant person, and I asked you to take her out."

"Oh, you scared me!"

Xia Mang felt relieved after hearing this. She stood up with her back supported to take a breath and began to ask questions: "Who is entangled with her?"

The system was reluctant to speak at first, but when it saw that Xia Mang was in an attitude that said, "I won't leave unless you speak."

"It's Yun Xingqing, the eldest son of the Yun family."

"Oh. Oh? Oh~" Xia Mang uttered "Oh" three times in a row like an aria, and immediately understood the system's thoughts.

"You said you are a system, why are you still jealous of others?"

The system remained silent, and Xia Mang gave some earnest advice.

"Being a man, you should be generous. Being a system administrator, you should be even more generous. It's not easy for your wife to marry you. What's wrong with seeing a man outside of her?"
