After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 189: Stop mentioning men in front of me
"Not now, let's wait until some time later, when your hands are more thorough." Lu Xing knew, and stretched out his hand to help her up, "It's cold outside, go in first."

"Yeah." Qiao Jingjing didn't insist and followed him into the house.

The furnishings in the room were still the same as when she left.

Although she only lived here for a while, she still liked this small courtyard.

"By the way, is this Lotus Garden the property of our Lu family?" She turned around and asked the man behind her.

"Yeah." Lu Xingzhi nodded.

Qiao Jingjing was not too surprised to get his affirmative answer.

The Lu family was richer than she thought, and it was not surprising that they would buy property in Chuzhou City. After all, Xingzi Village was so close to Chuzhou City.

"The officials sent from the capital will take office tomorrow, so can we return to the capital the day after tomorrow?" Qiao Jingjing asked about another matter.

"Ah."

"Then do we want to buy something and take it back to our parents? After all, we have been out for so long." Qiao Jingjing asked.

"No need, there is everything in the capital." Lu Xingzhi shook his head, "Your injury is not completely healed yet. Just rest well in the room and don't worry about it."

"What about you?" Qiao Jingjing asked.

"I still have some things to deal with and need to go to the government office." Lu Xingzhi helped her sit down on the chair, "I will be back later."

"Okay." Qiao Jingjing nodded.

In the afternoon, Lu Xingzhi went to the government office. Qiao Jingjing didn't go anywhere. She played cards with the two maids in the house.

While they were having fun, Lin Jiu suddenly came to report, "Madam, the eldest princess is here."

Qiao Jingjing held Wang Zha in her hand and was about to throw it out. When she heard this, she paused and thought she heard wrongly, "Who did you say is coming?"

Lin Jiu coughed lightly and said again, "It's the eldest princess."

Qiao Jingjing was sure she heard correctly this time and looked at him in surprise, "Eldest Princess?"

"Yes." Lin Jiu nodded, "He is outside the door right now."

Qiao Jingjing felt incredible.

Why did the eldest princess come to Chuzhou?

But the other party is the eldest princess after all. No matter how surprised she is, since the person has arrived outside the door, she must go to pick him up.

Thinking about it, she put down her playing cards, got up and walked out.

Mallow quickly took her cloak, chased after her, and tied it on her.

When they arrived outside the door, they saw a spacious and luxurious carriage parked there, and Lu Jing, the leader of the eldest princess's bodyguard, was also there.

Seeing this, Qiao Jingjing did not dare to neglect and immediately stepped forward to salute, "My wife has met the eldest princess."

At the same time, the closed carriage door was also opened.

The eldest princess sat in it impressively.

She raised her eyes, looked at Qiao Jingjing, and then said directly: "Come up."

Qiao Jingjing paused and asked, "Won't the eldest princess come in for a cup of tea?"

The eldest princess was a little impatient, "I tell you to come up, just come up."

Seeing her displeasure, Qiao Jingjing did not dare to hesitate any longer and quickly boarded the carriage.

"Sit down." The eldest princess said in a cold tone.

"Okay." Qiao Jingjing responded.

As soon as she sat down, she heard the eldest princess order: "Lu Jing, get on with the car!"

"Yes." Lu Jing responded outside.

Lin Jiu saw this and was worried about Qiao Jingjing. As soon as he stepped forward, he was blocked by Lu Jing with his sword.

Lu Jing said calmly: "Your Highness has no other intentions. He just wants to talk to Mrs. Lu about old times."

Lin Jiu took two steps back after hearing this.

Soon, Lu Jing drove away in a carriage himself.

Qiao Jingjing, who was sitting in the carriage, was a little surprised.

Where is the eldest princess taking her?
You won't go back to Beijing directly, right?

Thinking of this, she looked at the eldest princess's expression and asked, "Eldest Princess, where are we going?"

"Don't worry, I won't sell you." The eldest princess smiled half-heartedly.

Qiao Jingjing remained silent. Seeing that she didn't dare to say anything, the eldest princess softened her tone and said, "I haven't eaten all day, so I went to have a meal with you."

Hearing this, Qiao Jingjing was surprised and asked, "Why hasn't the eldest princess eaten all day?"

"You talk too much." The eldest princess frowned.

Qiao Jingjing: "..."

She closed her mouth silently.

But when the eldest princess saw that she didn't speak anymore, she was a little unhappy, "Why don't you speak?"

Qiao Jingjing: "..."

When she talks, people say she talks too much. When she doesn’t talk, people say why she doesn’t talk.

The eldest princess is really difficult to take care of.

But the eldest princess had already spoken, so she had no choice but to ask: "Why did the eldest princess come to Chuzhou City?"

This was what she was curious about too.

"My mother went to Wanfo Temple to worship Buddha in the past six months, and I went to pick her up back to Beijing. I passed by here and heard that you were still in Chuzhou City, so I came to see you." The eldest princess explained.

After hearing this, Qiao Jingjing suddenly realized.

No wonder the eldest princess came to Chuzhou City. It turned out that she passed by here.

"How does the eldest princess know that I live in Heyuan?" she asked curiously.

"It's not difficult for me to know." The eldest princess said in a somewhat arrogant tone.

Qiao Jingjing shrugged, and that was right.

The eldest princess glanced at her and said, "I haven't seen you for a while. I think you have gained a lot of weight."

When Qiao Jingjing heard this, she pinched her belly quietly.

Has she really gained weight?

The eldest princess didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but she continued: "It's okay to be a little fatter. If you are too fat, will Lu Xingzhi dislike you?"

The corner of Qiao Jingjing's mouth twitched. Seeing the obvious narrowing in the other person's eyes, she couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, please worry, my husband... ahem, he likes women who are more voluptuous."

The eldest princess pursed her lips, "So, are you showing off to me?"

Qiao Jingjing looked horrified, "I don't dare, I just tell you the truth."

The eldest princess snorted coldly, "Don't talk about men in front of me."

Qiao Jingjing: "..."

Wasn't she herself the first person to mention it?

But the other party is a princess, and whatever she says is whatever she says.

"Qiao Jingjing, my palace will return to Beijing tomorrow. Do you want to accompany me?" the eldest princess suddenly asked.

Qiao Jingjing declined politely: "I don't dare to trouble the eldest princess. My husband will return to Beijing the day after tomorrow. I can just go back with him."

Just kidding, she didn't want to have a long journey and face the eldest princess, without any freedom at all.

Fortunately, the eldest princess did not force her, "In that case, it's up to you."

Qiao Jingjing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, the carriage stopped.

Lu Jing said respectfully from outside: "Eldest Princess, the restaurant has arrived."

Qiao Jingjing followed the eldest princess and got off the carriage.

When they arrived at the private room of the restaurant, the eldest princess ordered a table of delicious dishes.

While eating, the eldest princess saw that Qiao Jingjing's hands were struggling to hold the chopsticks, and she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with your hands?"

Qiao Jingjing opened her cloak and showed her her right arm, which was fixed with a bamboo piece. "Two days ago, I had a fall and the bones in this hand were dislocated. They haven't fully recovered yet."

The eldest princess took a look and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she ordered the accompanying maid: "Feed Mrs. Lu."

"Yes." The maid responded and stepped forward.

Qiao Jingjing was stunned and declined: "Thank you, Princess, no need to go to such trouble, I can just eat a little."

"I ordered a table full of dishes. You told me to eat whatever you want?" The eldest princess was displeased.

Qiao Jingjing choked.
