Chapter 170 170: Everyone in the Qiao Family
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's all a gift I carefully prepared. You can go now."
The corners of Qiao Jingru's mouth twitched slightly, and she was shocked to see the beaming people following behind her.
This gift... is too much!
The newly bought house has been renovated for more than a month, and now it has a brand new look.
The door is open, and the doorkeeper is standing with a smile on his face wearing brand new clothes.
Qiao Jingru immediately ran over as soon as she got out of the car, and shouted joyfully, "Miss Fifth is back."
Most of the servants of Qiao's mansion were brought from their hometown, and only a few elderly people were left to guard the old house.
In an unfamiliar place in the capital, I still use the usual handyman.
"Ah Fu, the new clothes are nice, and they look more energetic." Qiao Jingru is very kind when she sees her old friends, even if they are slaves.
"Miss Xie praised me, it is also a blessing for this dress to get a compliment from Miss Xie."
Then saw Lu Xiang get off the carriage, hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Slave pays respects to Miss Lu, Miss Lu is auspicious."
My masters have said that the third lady of the Lu family will be a distinguished guest of the Qiao family in the future, and she is as honorable as the fifth lady. They should be respectful and polite in the present.
Lu Xiang smiled and nodded, and entered Qiao's mansion with Qiao Jingru.
It is more magnificent and luxurious than what I saw last time. Standing in the front yard of Qiao Yuan, you can see layers of cornices and walls, golden and jade glazed, shining brightly under the sunlight.
A clever servant trotted to the main hall to report, and in the blink of an eye, a group of people rushed up in front of Lu Xiang.
Everyone is brightly dressed and smiling.
Walking in the front are Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao. Mrs. Qiao has a smile on his chubby face, which looks like a Maitreya Buddha. The Qiao family was also a scholarly family in the early years. Mrs. Qiao's hope in this life is to enter the imperial court through scientific examinations He is an official, but he failed to succeed in the exam for decades, but because he only cared about reading, he gradually made his family sit and eat. Seeing that so many mouths were about to drink the northwest wind, he gave up studying and went into business, and his life gradually Get rich.
He failed the exam, so he thought about letting his eldest son inherit his father's business. Unexpectedly, the eldest son did inherit his father's business, but he inherited the business business. In just a few years, the family property has increased ten times. Became a big player.
Papa Joe was dumbfounded.
Such a smart mind, why not read books.
It's annoying.
Fortunately, the second son is a good student, so Father Qiao is quite pleased.
But as the saying goes, you can't put eggs in one basket. Father Qiao wants the remaining three sons to take the scientific examination, so that one of them will be able to go to high school. I never expected that after giving birth to four sons, he would be an old man. The two read a book.
The third child knew that he would spend his time drinking and not doing business, and the fourth child didn't know what was going on in his head. Ever since he was sensible, he had been thinking about leaving home and going to the frontier to serve as a soldier. After so many years of running away and being caught back, Father Qiao felt very tired. .
What is the use of the son, it is all debt collection.
Ms. Qiao is wearing a pony bun, wearing a spring brocade pipa lapel short jacket, and a smoky bottom lake silk opera spring horse face skirt underneath. She smiles before she speaks, her eyes are like flowing waves.
"Father, mother." Qiao Jingru yelled with a smile, pulled Lu Xiang towards the crowd and trotted away, and then introduced to Lu Xiang one by one: "This is my elder brother and sister-in-law. My sister-in-law was diagnosed with pregnancy on the way to Beijing. I'm going to be an aunt. This is my second brother, third brother, and fourth brother!"
Lu Xiang saluted everyone one by one, followed by Qiao Jingru and called out: "Uncle Qiao, Aunt Qiao, Brother Qiao, Sister-in-law Qiao, Second Brother Qiao, Third Brother Qiao, Fourth Brother Qiao."
Mouth is so tired!
"Congratulations, sister-in-law Qiao."
Wen Ruoxi smiled gently: "Thank you."
Papa Qiao smiled at Lu Xiang, and the flesh of his chin twitched: "Miss Lu San, I am grateful to you for taking care of my little girl. The Qiao family is very grateful."
"Uncle Qiao is being polite, more often my sister-in-law is taking care of me." Lu Xiang laughed.
Mrs. Qiao saw Father Qiao's dry topic, and immediately pushed him aside in dissatisfaction, stepped forward and took Lu Xiang's hand and smiled: "Xiangxiang, can I call you like Sui Ru'er?"
"Well, Aunt Qiao is more kind."
"Hey!" Mrs. Qiao's smile became brighter and brighter: "Ru'er often mentioned you in her letters home. She married far away and had no one she knew well. As parents, we are really worried. Fortunately, you are with me to help her everywhere." , it made her life in the Lu family more and more hopeful, and we can feel at ease."
Lu Xiang looked at the Qiao family members in front of him, feeling indescribably envious.
Parents are loving, brother and sister are in harmony, that's why Qiao Jingru is able to raise a lively, cheerful and decisive woman who dares to love and hate.
I heard that the Qiao family has a family rule that a man is only allowed to take a concubine if he is forty years old and has no children.
A woman who can marry into the Qiao family as a daughter-in-law is happy.
"Oh my mother, it's so polite to thank you so much. Why don't you go in and sit in the yard and talk." Qiao Jingru said.
Wen Ruoxi smiled and said: "Yes, yes, we are all happy and confused, Miss Lu, please sit in the room."
Qiao Jingru: "Sister-in-law, don't be cautious, Xiangxiang is very easy to get along with."
Wen Ruoxi nodded dumbfounded.
She was born in a businessman and had never dealt with the daughter of an official family, so she was a little nervous. Sister-in-law, don't expose me so directly.
Lu Xiang was surrounded by everyone and went to the main hall.
Although Qiao Zhiyan cooperated with Lu Xiang in mining, it was the first time seeing her today, and she was quite different from the sharp and shrewd appearance he imagined, which surprised him a bit.
Qiao Zeran deliberately chose a seat next to Lu Xiang to sit, and looked at her with a pair of peach blossom eyes and a smile: "Xiang Xiang, have you met me somewhere?"
Lu Xiang was stunned by this old-fashioned way of striking up a conversation.
Qiao Jingru's face darkened suddenly: "Third brother, are you floating?"
Qiao Zeran turned his head to look at his sister's gloomy eyes that seemed to be eating people, and touched his nose embarrassingly: "Doesn't this sound familiar to ask?"
Papa Qiao silently covered his face, not looking.
Mrs. Qiao glared at her son, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly: "Xiangxiang, don't be surprised, he has intermittent convulsions, and he probably forgot to feed his brain when he was born."
It's a pity that the second son, who is the only one who can hope to pass the kung fu exam, is engaged, and the third son is not in good shape. The youngest son is a reckless man who only knows how to use knives and guns. Otherwise, she really wants Lu Xiang to be her daughter-in-law.
But this matter can only be thought about, as Ru'er said, Lu Xiang is loved by the queen, and most of her marriages are chosen by the empress for her.
Qiao Zeran, who has no brains: "..."
Mother, you are too cruel!
Lu Xiang smiled obediently: "No, Third Brother Qiao is very interesting."
Joe Zeran was so praised that his eyes suddenly lit up: "You have vision, and the third brother will take you to play in the future."
"Thank you." Qiao Jingru rebuffed unceremoniously: "As far as the places you come and go, you can play by yourself."
Qiao Zeran: "You don't understand the fun."
"I'm a girl, if you understand, see if your parents will break your legs."
Uh…
Joe couldn't refute it.
