After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 38 I learned it from someone

Qiao Jingjing glanced at her and said to smooth things over: "Mrs. Li is still busy entertaining other guests, so we won't disturb her for now."

Mrs. Cui said: "The chrysanthemums in my garden are all of the highest quality. I'll ask someone to take you for a walk first." There was a sense of superiority in her words.

"Thank you." Qiao Jingjing nodded.

After a while, a maid came over and led a few people to the side to admire the chrysanthemums.

The conversation between the few and Cui just now had been heard by the guests nearby. When they saw Qiao Jingjing and the others approaching, they all looked at her curiously, and then started whispering.

"Didn't you say that he came from the countryside? Why doesn't he look like him?"

"Yeah, what village girl can grow up like her?"

"If someone is not good-looking, would Mr. Lu be willing to give up a better future and return to his hometown to marry her?"

"Looks like a vixen."

……

Although the voices of their discussion were low, Qiao Jingjing and others still heard some words.

Lu Shuangshuang approached Qiao Jingjing with a look of gloating, "Did you hear that? I didn't say nonsense before, and others said the same thing about you."

Qiao Jingjing glanced at her, "So you're happy?"

The corners of Lu Shuang's lips curled up. Although he didn't speak, the meaning was self-evident.

When Lin Fangfang saw this, she secretly shook her head.

This Lu Shuangshuang is really stupid.

Could it be that she would feel honored if Jingjing, her sister-in-law, was insulted?

I don’t understand the principle of losing both.

Of course Lu Shuangshuang didn't understand. She even felt like she had found an ally. She suddenly left the two of them behind and turned around to get in front of those people.

Lin Fangfang frowned when she saw this, "You little sister-in-law..."

"Don't worry about her, just let her go. Only if she falls down will she understand." Qiao Jingjing said nonchalantly.

"You are so kind-hearted." Lin Fangfang said with shame.

Seeing this, Qiao Jingjing whispered: "Could it be that you happen to have a similar sister-in-law at home?"

Lin Fangfang said with a somewhat gloomy expression: "Our eldest aunt is a very domineering person, but she has been married a long time ago."

When Qiao Jingjing heard this, she knew that her situation was similar to hers, and might even be worse than hers.

Although the eldest aunt is married, judging from Lin Fangfang's appearance, she is probably meddling in her family's affairs.

"Okay, let's not talk about those bad things, let's go over there and have a look." Lin Fangfang said.

"Okay." Qiao Jingjing agreed happily.

It has to be said that the Li Mansion put a lot of thought into hosting this chrysanthemum appreciation feast. Every pot of chrysanthemums in the garden is of extraordinary quality.

While the two were watching, they suddenly saw Lu Shuangshuang coming back in disgrace.

Lin Fangfang took a look and whispered to Qiao Jingjing: "It seems that she was frustrated."

Qiao Jingjing was not surprised by this.

Since those ladies looked down upon her status as a country girl, how could they think highly of Lu Shuangshuang who took the initiative to get in love with her?
"Are you happy?" Lu Shuangshuang looked at her angrily.

Qiao Jingjing nodded, "I'm very happy. It's not every day that you can see this garden full of chrysanthemums." Lu Shuangshuang was stunned.

Qiao Jingjing ignored her and held Lin Fangfang's hand, admiring the chrysanthemums while walking.

After a while, a few more young masters came, but they didn't know their identities. They saw Ms. Cui who was still entertaining the female family members and hurriedly greeted them.

"The one at the front is the eldest son of the Duke of Qin. He is handsome and well-liked and is deeply loved by girls in the capital." Lin Fangfang answered Qiao Jingjing's confusion.

Qiao Jingjing was stunned, the heir apparent of the Duke of Qin? The heroine’s brother in the original book?
Why does it look different from what is described in the original book?
She couldn't help but take a second look.

However, when he turned around, he saw Lu Shuangshuang standing there blankly, looking at the Prince Qin.

Qiao Jingjing was so familiar with her look like this, wasn't it a sign of a nymphomaniac?

Looking at Mr. Qin again, he indeed looks extraordinary and has a dignified appearance.

In addition to Lu Shuangshuang, there were also many young girls in the garden who were peeking at Prince Qin.

"What kind of dirty look are you looking at?"

At this time, a disdainful voice suddenly came from the side, followed immediately by an exclamation.

Qiao Jingjing turned around and saw Lu Shuangshuang. At some point, several girls came over and were looking at Lu Shuangshuang with disdain. Lu Shuangshuang was sitting on the ground with a blank look on his face. .

"A country bumpkin is worthy of admiring Prince Qin? What an insult to Prince Qin!" The girls sneered.

Lu Shuangshuang was ashamed and angry. She rubbed her ankles and was speechless for a while.

Seeing this, Qiao Jingjing frowned, walked over, helped her up, and then glanced at the girls with sharp eyes, "Who pushed her?"

The girls were all startled by her sharp gaze, but when they reacted, they all felt annoyed.

They were actually frightened by a village girl.

One of the girls, a pretty and beautiful girl, stood up arrogantly, "I pushed it, how about it?"

Qiao Jingjing glanced at her and nodded, "Which family are you from?"

When the girl heard this, her expression became even more arrogant. She raised her chin and announced her family background: "My father is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and I am Guo Manrou."

"The name is quite nice, but it's this upbringing..." Qiao Jingjing smiled inexplicably, and then said, "I'll give you a chance to apologize to my sister. Otherwise, I don't mind and I will promote it for you."

"What are you promoting?" Guo Manrou said disdainfully.

"The daughter of the Minister of Industry, Guo Manrou bullies others. She not only verbally abuses others, but also hits them. If everyone in the capital knew about such a tutor, your Guo family would become famous, and the emperor would also punish Mr. Guo. Reward?" Qiao Jingjing came closer and whispered.

Guo Manrou's expression changed, and she raised her hand to hit her, "You..."

Qiao Jingjing grabbed her wrist with quick eyes and hands, "I didn't make it up out of thin air. This is obvious to everyone. Miss Guo, you can think about it carefully. Although I am new here, I have also heard that those censors are the best at arresting people." It’s a pigtail, if the imperial censor adds one, Guo Shangshu indulges women and bullies others, I wonder what your father would think?”

When Guo Manrou heard this, her expression was extremely ugly. She threw her hand away and gritted her teeth and said, "You're cruel!" She looked at Lu Shuangshuang and said in a firm tone, "I just did it unintentionally, I'm sorry. "

After that, she quickly led her group of little sisters and slipped away.

Lin Fangfang looked at Qiao Jingjing and smiled and said, "Jingjing is so powerful. With just a few words, she scared Guo Manrou into that state."

Qiao Jingjing shrugged, "I also learned it from someone."

Lin Fangfang was stunned and was about to ask who that person was when she saw Lu Shuangshuang blushing and standing in front of Qiao Jingjing. She opened and closed her mouth several times and finally said angrily: "Don't think that you helped me. I will be grateful to you, don’t think too much.”

Qiao Jingjing sneered, "Who wants your gratitude? I only helped you for the sake of your elder brother."

Lu Shuangshuang was stunned.
