After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 178 A Kiss in the Snow

Malkui and the two quickly stopped Xiuchun.

Xiuchun's face was very red, and she was twisting her clothes, not knowing what to do, "This..."

Qiao Jingjing stood up and gave the child to him, and said helplessly: "Sister-in-law Xiuchun, you don't need to panic. Keep the things given to you carefully and don't tell others."

Xiuchun nodded, "Okay... I, I won't tell anyone."

Qiao Jingjing smiled and said, "I'm going to my parents' house soon, so I'll let Mallow take you back first."

"Okay." Xiuchun hugged the child, still feeling uneasy.

Qiao Jingjing asked Qingyuan to pick out all the eggs, then wrapped the snacks on the table, put them in the basket, and gave them to Mallow.

"Mallow, please send Sister-in-law Xiuchun back."

"Yes." Mallow responded, picked up the basket, the two pieces of cloth and ginseng, and said to Xiuchun, "Sister-in-law Xiuchun, let's go then."

"Hey, okay." Xiuchun nodded quickly.

As soon as the two left, Qingyuan sighed: "Sister-in-law Xiuchun's life is really hard, having to deal with such a mother-in-law."

During the few days she came to Xingzi Village, she also heard about Xiuchun.

I also understand why she gave eggs to Madam.

After all, Xiuchun also had resentment towards Mrs. Xu.

That's why she was so grateful to Mrs. Xu after she was imprisoned.

Qiao Jingjing said nothing.

Although Xiuchun's experience makes people sympathize, there is nothing others can do to help her. Only Xiuchun can figure it out on her own and become stronger, so that she can live a good life.

After all, evil people need to be punished by evil people.

The reason Xu dared to bully Xiuchun so unscrupulously was because Xiuchun was too cowardly.

"Madam, you are so kind." Qingyuan praised sincerely.

Qiao Jingjing laughed, "I didn't do anything."

"Madam gave thirty taels, two pieces of cloth, and ginseng to Sister-in-law Xiuchun. If Sister-in-law Xiuchun knows how to plan, she will definitely live a better life in the future." Qingyuan said seriously.

Qiao Jingjing shook her head, "Thirty taels of silver can help her for a while, but it can't help her forever. If she still doesn't plan for herself, her situation will still be the same in the future."

"Yeah." Qingyuan nodded.

Not long after, Mallow came back.

"Have you sent Sister-in-law Xiuchun home?" Qiao Jingjing asked.

"Send it back." Mallow replied.

Nothing happened after that. After thinking about it, Qiao Jingjing took a carriage and went to Qiao's house. Then she picked up Qiao's father and Mrs. Xu and went to the house in the town.

Qiao Jingjing wanted the two of them to move there as soon as possible, so she took them together to buy furniture.

Looking at his busy daughter, Father Qiao hesitated several times.

Qiao Jingjing turned around and saw it, and asked curiously: "Dad, do you have something to say to me?"

Looking at his well-behaved and considerate daughter, Father Qiao opened his mouth, and finally shook his head and said, "No."

When Qiao Jingjing heard this, she didn't think much about it.

In the evening, Qiao Jingjing left after eating at Qiao's house.

After she left, Father Qiao let out a long sigh.

When Mrs. Xu saw it, she couldn't help but ask: "Old Qiao, what's wrong with you today? I always feel that you are worried."

Looking at his newlywed wife, Father Qiao was speechless. After a long while, he shook his head and said, "It's okay."

Mrs. Xu held his hand and said, "If you have something on your mind, you must tell me."

"...Okay." Father Qiao finally nodded.

……

After the new house was decorated, Qiao Jingjing happily took her father Qiao to find someone to choose an auspicious day.

She planned to let Father Qiao and Mrs. Xu officially move in on that day.

The auspicious day is just two days away.

Two days later, Father Qiao and Mrs. Xu officially moved into their new home.

On the day of the housewarming, Father Qiao invited some familiar people to liven things up. When the guests dispersed, snowflakes suddenly began to fall from the sky.

Looking at the flying snow outside, Father Qiao was lost in thought for a moment.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Qiao Jingjing asked with a frown.

"No, no." Father Qiao came to his senses and quickly denied.

Qiao Jingjing looked at him suspiciously, "No? But I think you are distracted."

"I'm just so happy." Father Qiao said with a smile.

Qiao Jingjing looked at him and was about to say something when Lin Jiu suddenly ran in from outside and said, "Madam, your Excellency is here."

"Lu Xingzhi?" Qiao Jingjing was stunned for a moment, then she curled her lips and said, "The guests have dispersed, what is he doing here?"

"Jingjing, don't say that. Ah Xing has to come back from such a long distance, which will inevitably delay his time." Father Qiao said, taking an umbrella and handing it to her, "Why don't you go and greet her."

Qiao Jingjing muttered, "He has legs, why do you need me to greet him?" She said this, but she still took the umbrella and walked out the door.

Father Qiao shook his head helplessly.

Mrs. Xu also smiled and said: "I see that this girl is obviously very happy, she is just being stubborn."

Mallow and Qingyuan nodded in sympathy.

As soon as Qiao Jingjing walked to the door, she saw Lu Xingzhi getting off the horse.

His black cloak was already covered with snowflakes. Seeing Qiao Jingjing standing by the door, he walked quickly towards her.

Seeing this, Qiao Jingjing also took a few steps in his direction.

When he came closer, he raised his umbrella high and held it above his head, scolding: "The weather is so bad, why don't you take a carriage?"

"It would be faster to ride a horse." Lu Xingzhi took the umbrella from her hand and led her inside.

Qiao Jingjing saw that there were snowflakes on his cloak and couldn't help but reach out and pat him.

Lu Xingzhi's dark eyes flashed with a smile, he held her hand and said, "It doesn't matter, stop taking pictures, it's cold outside, go in first."

"Yeah." Qiao Jingjing nodded.

Lu Xingzhi saw that she didn't pull away, so he took advantage of the situation and held her hand.

Qiao Jingjing paused, then suddenly raised her fingers and scratched his palm.

Lu Xingzhi's body tensed up and he whispered, "Don't make trouble."

Qiao Jingjing looked at him innocently, "I'm not making trouble."

Lu Xingzhi stopped and looked at her with his dark eyes.

When she met his eyes, Qiao Jingjing's heart skipped a beat, "What, what's wrong?"

Lu Xingzhi held her hand, suddenly let go, put his arm around her waist, and brought her into his arms.

Qiao Jingjing was stunned, "What do you want to do?"

Lu Xingzhi pursed his lips and said nothing, but lowered his head.

Qiao Jingjing's breath stagnated, her peach blossom eyes widened.

When a crisp and delicious smell entered her nose, her lips suddenly felt warm, and the man kissed her lips.

Qiao Jingjing's mind went blank.

"Sir and madam, what are you doing? I haven't seen you coming in for a long time. Master Qiao asked his subordinates to come down and take a look." At this time, a sudden voice sounded not far from the two of them.

Qiao Jingjing was startled, came to her senses, blushed and reminded in a low voice: "Lin Jiu is next to you..."

Lu Xingzhi frowned and left her lips.

Lin Jiuhou stood aside and looked at the two of them in confusion.

But the umbrella was too low and he couldn't see what the two people under the umbrella were doing.

It wasn't until the umbrella was raised higher that he could see it clearly.

The master looked as cold as ever, but the lady's face was a little red.

He, a monk two feet tall, was confused and couldn't help but urge again, "Sir, come in quickly, don't keep Master Qiao and the others waiting."

As soon as he finished speaking, the adult's cold eyes swept over him, feeling faintly displeased.

He was surprised and puzzled. He didn't make any mistakes today, right?
Why does the adult look at him with a displeased expression?
