Chapter 166 Why did you come into my dream?
Qiao Jingjing looked ugly and said, "I bought this dress for thirty taels of silver. If you tear it to pieces, you will pay me the price."

When Qiao Qingqing heard this, she immediately stopped and muttered: "Why are clothes so expensive and cost so much money?"

She said this, but her movements were much restrained. After all, she couldn't afford to pay if she really wanted to.

Qiao Jingjing sneered.

This dress was tailor-made for her by the embroiderer from Jin Zhilou when she first arrived in the capital. In fact, it cost more than thirty taels of silver.

"Give it back to you!" Qiao Qingqing took off her dress, stuffed it into her arms, and ran away.

Qiao Jingjing felt unhappy.

Unexpectedly, the uncle's family could raise a person like Qiao Qingqing.

She hugged her dress and entered the house in a bad mood.

As soon as she opened the curtain, she saw Lu Xingzhi sleeping on the bed

Seeing this, she unconsciously slowed down her steps.

After hanging the dress back on the hanger, she turned to look at the man.

Under the light, the man's dark eyes were closed, his thick long eyelashes resting quietly on his eyelids, and his whole person exuded tranquility.

Although he fell asleep, he was still handsome and charming...

Seeing this, Qiao Jingjing couldn't help but think of bumping into Qiao Qingqing outside the door just now.

Qiao Qingqing was so sneaky just now, could she be spying on Lu Xingzhi?

Realizing this, her expression darkened.

He just stole her clothes, but now he's targeting Lu Xingzhi?
Thinking about it, she glared at Lu Xingzhi angrily.

This man is truly a disaster, so good at recruiting people.

But thinking about the problem of sleeping for a while, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

Lu Xingzhi occupied her bed, where would she sleep?

The Qiao family has few houses, with only three sleeping places in total.

Father Qiao and Mrs. Xu had one room, and she had one room. The remaining guest room was used to store groceries. When she came back this time, she temporarily packed it out and gave it to Qingyuan and Mallow to sleep in.

But Lin Jiu and the other accompanying guards had no choice but to sleep in Xu's house next door.

Qiao Jingjing originally wanted to squeeze in with Qingyuan and the others.

But thinking about the narrow bed, I finally gave up.

Thinking about it, she resignedly picked up the quilt and spread it on the floor in front of the bed.

These days, they were busy with the wedding of Father Qiao and Mrs. Xu. Qingyuan and Mallow helped a lot, but the two girls were exhausted, so before entering the house, she sent them to rest.

She fetched some water herself, washed her face and feet, and climbed into the quilt.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to buy a few extra quilts when she went to town a few days ago, and they are just in use now.

These days, she was busy with everything, and she was tired.

She yawned and closed her eyes.

Before long, she fell into a deep sleep.

……

The next day.

When Lu Xingzhi woke up, he found that it was already dawn.

He raised his hand to rub his sore eyebrows. As soon as he got out of bed, he saw Qiao Jingjing on the ground.

He was startled.

I saw the girl wrapped in a quilt, with only one head exposed.

Because she was asleep, her face looked flushed, her curled eyelashes were hanging down, and she looked so well-behaved...

Lu Xingzhi paused, stood up, picked her up, and prepared to put her on the bed.

But at this moment, Qiao Jingjing suddenly opened her eyes.

She might have been in a daze and thought she was in a dream. Looking at the man so close, she couldn't help but stretched out her hand, touched his face, and muttered: "Lu Xingzhi, why did you come into my dream?" "Really?" Lu Xingzhi smiled and was about to speak, but he saw that she closed her eyes again, breathed evenly, and fell asleep again.

Seeing this, Lu Xingzhi felt helpless, but at the same time, his eyes flashed with affection.

He looked at her for a while before gently placing her on the bed.

After that, he washed himself with the water on the basin shelf, then lifted the curtain and went out.

Qingyuan and Mallow had gotten up early and were cleaning the yard with brooms, while Lin Jiu and several guards were helping to clean up the tables and chairs.

Seeing Lu Xingzhi coming out, several people quickly saluted, "Sir."

Lu Xingzhi nodded.

Father Qiao and Mrs. Xu, who were making breakfast in the kitchen, heard the sound and immediately came out, "A Xing, are you up?"

Lu Xingzhi nodded, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law."

The two elders smiled and agreed.

"A Xing, Jingjing hasn't gotten up yet? Go and ask her to get up and wash up. Breakfast will be ready in a while." Father Qiao looked behind him and didn't see Qiao Jingjing, so he couldn't help but urge her.

"Let her sleep a little longer." Lu Xing knew.

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she joked: "It seems that A Xing loves our Jingjing very much."

Qiao's father was quite pleased and said: "Jingjing is a lazy girl, only Ah Xing will indulge her."

Lu Xingzhi thought of Qiao Jingjing who was still sleeping, and the corners of his lips curled up, but he did not deny it.

When Mrs. Xu saw it, she smiled and said to Qiao's father, "You go and talk to A Xing. I'll just come here."

"Okay." Father Qiao put down the food in his hand and walked out, "A Xing, let's sit in the main room."

"it is good."

It was already noon when Qiao Jingjing got up.

Qingyuan and Mallow came in with water to wash her.

After washing and dressing, she left the house.

The yard has been tidied up and restored to its previous clean and orderly state. Only the happy words posted on the surrounding walls indicate that a happy event has been held here.

"By the way, where are my father and the others?" She turned to ask the two maids.

"Master Qiao and Mrs. Qiao are making lunch in the kitchen. Your Excellency is taking Lin Jiu and the others back to Lu Residence," Mallow replied.

"Lu Xingzhi returned to Lu's house?" Qiao Jingjing was stunned for a moment.

But when he thought about not coming back for so long, and coming back to Xingzi Village this time, he should go back to Lu Zhai to take a look.

"Yes, the Lord said that he would go back to Lu Zhai tonight, so he took Lin Jiu and the others back to clean up first, and then he would pick up Madam in the afternoon," Qing Yuan said.

"Yeah." Qiao Jingjing nodded.

"You lazy girl, you didn't wake up until now. Ah Xing has gone back to the Lu family." At this time, Qiao's father came out of the kitchen, scolding her, but looking at Qiao Jingjing, her eyes were full of love.

"If I'm not lazy, how can I match my father's hard work?" Qiao Jingjing came over and hugged his arm coquettishly.

"That's ridiculous!" Father Qiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Jingjing, I've left breakfast for you. Eat some to fill your stomach first. We'll have lunch soon." Mrs. Xu walked out with the food.

"Thank you, mother." Qiao Jingjing said seriously.

Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment, came to her senses, and said at a loss: "W-what did you call me?"

"Mom!" Qiao Jingjing shouted again without getting tired of it.

This made Mrs. Xu so happy that she became a little incoherent, "I, I...Old Qiao, did you hear it? Jingjing called me mother."

Father Qiao said funnyly: "Look at how happy you are. She calls you mother. Isn't it right?"

"But..." Xu said, her eyes suddenly turned red.

Although she is married to Father Qiao now, she does not dare to expect Jingjing to call her mother.

What she didn't expect was that Jingjing gave her this surprise. How could she not be touched by this?
Seeing that her eyes were red, Qiao Jingjing couldn't help but let go of Father Qiao's arm, walked to her, handed the tray in her hand to the maid, and hugged her shoulders affectionately, "From now on, you are My mother, although I may not be able to serve you and dad every day, I will come back to see you whenever I have time."
