After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 98 The Lu Family’s Secret

"Don't worry, my parents have money."

At this time, Lu Shuangshuang suddenly came close to her ear and whispered.

Hearing this, Qiao Jingjing looked at her in surprise.

Lu Shuangshuang was stunned for a moment, thought of something, and said with an awkward expression: "I'm not trying to please you."

Qiao Jingjing couldn't laugh or cry, "I know, but what do you mean by what you said?"

Are Father Lu and Mother Lu very rich?

Although she had had such doubts before, she later thought that it was Lu Xingzhi who had received the emperor's reward and that it was Lu Xingzhi who gave it to Lu's father and mother.

But now it seems not.

Lu Shuangshuang looked better, but said a little arrogantly: "I can't tell you now, because it is related to the secret of our family."

Another Lu family secret?
Qiao Jingjing was startled, then nodded and said without asking any more questions, "Okay."

Seeing that she didn't ask further questions, Lu Shuangshuang was a little confused, "You don't want to ask me?"

"Will you tell me if I ask you?" Qiao Jingjing raised her eyebrows.

"Of course not." Lu Shuangshuang affirmed.

"That's it. I asked in vain." Qiao Jingjing said.

Lu Shuangshuang thought for a moment and whispered, "But my parents will definitely tell you in the future."

Qiao Jingjing's lips curled up, "Then I'll wait for that day."

Although she was curious about the Lu family's secrets, if they didn't take the initiative to tell them, she wouldn't dig into them.

Because she has a secret herself.

Although she did not refuse Mother Lu's kindness, she still became uneasy when she heard the waiter reported that he wanted five thousand taels of silver during the checkout.

"Mom, there's no need to buy so much..."

"This Yingluo, I think it suits you very well." Mother Lu changed her hands and put a necklace with complicated workmanship, exquisiteness, beauty and grandeur around her neck.

Looking at the dazzling necklace around her neck, Qiao Jingjing was stunned for a moment, with surprise flashing in her eyes.

This necklace is so beautiful...

But it can also be seen that this Yingluo is the most precious piece of jewelry among so many.

Just as she was about to speak, Lu Shuangshuang's stunning voice sounded first, "Sister-in-law looks really beautiful wearing this necklace. Mom has such a discerning eye."

"My taste is naturally good." Mother Lu also admired it for a while and said with a smile on her face, obviously very satisfied.

After hearing this, Qiao Jingjing refused and said nothing more.

Mother Lu was very interested. If she refused again, it would be too disappointing.

"Wear this." At this time, Mother Lu put another slightly smaller necklace inlaid with pearls and gemstones on Lu Shuangshuang's neck.

Lu Shuangshuang reached out and touched it, then turned to Qiao Jingjing, "Do you think this looks good on me?"

Qiao Jingjing nodded, "It's very beautiful. This necklace is small and exquisite. The pearls on it are bright and beautiful. The inlaid gems are dazzling and match your temperament."

Hearing this, Lu Shuangshuang was extremely happy. She turned to Mother Lu and said, "Mom, I like this necklace so much."

"As long as you like it." Mother Lu was very happy to see that she liked it.

The three of them were immersed in joy and did not notice a person standing by the handrail on the second floor.

The man's eyes stayed on Mother Lu, and gradually his brows furrowed.

"Why does that person... look so familiar?"

Until Qiao Jingjing and the others left, the man was still thinking about this matter.

"Who did Madam see?" the maid waiting beside her couldn't help but ask.

The man gathered his thoughts and shook his head, "No, I must have seen it wrong."

Although that bitch ran away, there was news that she was kidnapped by bandits. Based on her appearance, she must have been trampled to death by bandits. How could she still be alive?

Thinking of this, the man felt relieved.

Besides, after Qiao Jingjing and the others left Xianghe Building, Mother Lu suddenly paused and looked back at Xianghe Building, feeling inexplicably uneasy.

"What's wrong with mother?" Qiao Jingjing noticed it and asked with concern.

Mother Lu came to her senses and shook her head, "It's okay."

"Mom, Zuixianlou is just ahead. I heard that the food at Zuixianlou is very delicious. Can we go back after eating, okay?" At this time, Lu Shuangshuang shook Mother Lu's arm and begged. Mother Lu hesitated.

Seeing this, Lu Shuangshuang shook her arm again, "Mom, just take us there. I don't know when the next time I want to go out. My eldest brother punished me to copy the Heart Sutra. I'm afraid I won't have to copy it until the end of the year." It’s not over…”

After talking about it, she looked pitiful.

Qiao Jingjing feels deeply sympathetic.

Because in her opinion, writing calligraphy is too difficult, let alone copying the Heart Sutra twenty times.

Mother Lu hesitated because she was afraid of meeting someone she knew, but looking at her daughter's pitiful look, she couldn't bear to refuse.

Finally, she nodded in agreement, "Okay."

"Mom is the best." Lu Shuangshuang was very happy.

Zuixian Tower.

As the most famous restaurant in the capital, it is naturally crowded with customers and very lively.

Because the three of them did not reserve seats in advance, when they arrived at Zuixian Tower, all the private rooms were full and they could only sit downstairs in the lobby.

Fortunately, there is still a window seat.

After the three of them sat down, they ordered a table full of delicious dishes.

After the food arrived, Lu Shuangshuang couldn't wait to eat it.

"As expected of Zuixianlou, the food here is delicious." She praised while eating.

After tasting it, Mother Lu nodded, "It's really good."

Qiao Jingjing observed the environment of Zuixian Tower while eating, and occasionally listened to the gossips told by guests at other tables.

Later, an idea came into her mind...

"What are you thinking about, Jingjing? Why don't you eat?"

Seeing that she was distracted, Mother Lu brought her some vegetables.

"I didn't think about anything. I just thought that the dancer in Zuixian Tower was so pretty and danced beautifully." Qiao Jingjing came back to her senses and pointed to the dancer who was dancing hard on the stage not far away, smiling. road.

Lu Shuangshuang glanced at her and then looked away, "It's too immoral to dress like that."

"They also want to make a living. If they had a choice, I don't think they would want to dress like that." Qiao Jingjing said.

From her modern point of view, the dancer actually didn't reveal much.

But here is the ancient time where it is not allowed to show any skin. Most people have the same idea as Lu Shuangshuang.

Even Mother Lu didn't even look at the table.

It can be seen how disliked those dancing girls are by people.

When Lu Shuangshuang heard this, he said nothing more.

Qiao Jingjing continued to listen to the chatter of the guests at the table next to her.

After finishing their meal, several people paid and left.

At this moment, a handsome middle-aged man suddenly rushed over and blocked the way of several people.

"Xiao Zhu!" He stared at Mother Lu with bright eyes, looking very excited and happy.

However, when Mother Lu saw this person, her expression changed. She hurriedly lowered her head and denied it, "What Xiaozhu? You recognized the wrong person!"

Aunt Rong reacted and quickly blocked her behind her.

The man frowned, obviously not expecting Mother Lu to deny it, "You..."

When Qiao Jingjing saw this, she vaguely guessed something. Seeing that the man was still entangled, she took a step forward and said, "Uncle, you have recognized the wrong person. My mother doesn't know you."

Hearing this, the man glanced at her. Just as he was about to say something, his eyes suddenly fell on Aunt Rong, "Aren't you Xiao Rong?"

"No, no, no, you got the wrong person." Aunt Rong said in a rough voice, lowering her head in denial.

"It's getting late, let's go back quickly." At this time, Mother Lu suddenly said and walked out in a hurry.

Aunt Rong quickly followed.

Seeing this, Qiao Jingjing grabbed Lu Shuangshuang who was standing there blankly. After looking at Butler Wang, she also left Zuixian Tower.

Butler Wang understood, turned around, and stopped the man who was about to chase him out.
