the first lady

Chapter 72

Helian Feiyan stopped looking at Zong Zhengyi, and shifted his gaze from his body to Qiao Linger's face, and after staying for a moment, he walked past her, leaving behind a faint smell.

The look in her eyes before leaving made Qiao Ling'er very uncomfortable.

The chasing life that has been holding back all this time finally couldn't take it anymore, "Damn, old... I have been driving for such a long time, can I find a place for..."

Before he could finish his speech, Qiao Linger's glance made him completely silent, and he could only swallow all the complaining words that came to his lips.

Forbearance a moment, calm, take a step back, a brighter future--

Qiao Ling'er turned to Zong Zhengyi and gave him a brief introduction: "He is chasing after his life, I will explain to you later why he is here!"

"... Are you tired?" Zong Zhengyi just glanced at Zhui Ming indifferently and then returned his eyes to Qiao Linger's face, as if Zhui Ming's presence or absence had nothing to do with him.

Qiao Linger froze for a moment, for some reason, the scene of her catching the fifth princess appeared in her mind again, and the word "Brother Yi" in Mocheng two days ago came to her ears, which made her even more excited. It was a suffocation that directly rose.

Without thinking, he said: "I'm tired, let's go back and rest first!" Without waiting for Zong Zhengyi, he walked into the mansion.

People say that when people carry their backs, drinking water will get stuck between their teeth.

Qiao Ling'er never expected that before she stepped into the gate, with one foot still outside the threshold, she would run into that strict father-in-law, Zongzheng Wudi.Helpless, I had no choice but to take back the foot that stepped in and squeeze out a smile, calling "Dad".

"Father?" Zongzheng Wudi's voice was a bit shady, "Isn't your father at Qiao's house? How dare I bear it?"

Qiao Ling'er's head began to ache, she lowered her body and said in a low voice, "Eunuch, it's my daughter-in-law's fault."

"Father..." Zongzheng Yi just opened his mouth, but Zongzheng Wudi interrupted him.

"Yi'er, it's none of your business." Zongzheng Wudi couldn't bear to see his son doting on a woman so much, and said sharply, "You haven't been here for a long time, and you just ran to your mother's house every three days. Why, it's my Zongzheng Wudi. The politicians have treated you badly, and you still feel that I, Yi'er, are not good enough for you to make it difficult for you to stay in Zongzheng's house?"

The bitter and mean words made Qiao Ling'er really want to rush up and punch the old man, but she couldn't, let alone say that she was actually a lobbyist, so that the eldest brother would come back and get married!
Before Qiao Linger could speak, Zongzheng Wudi said with a cold face: "Since you have married into my Zongzheng family, you are a member of my Zongzheng family. You must abide by the three obediences and four virtues. In this world, your most important It is your husband-in-law, my Yi'er, he is your God, no matter what you have to do, you must get his consent, you are not allowed to leave the house without permission, and..."

Qiao Ling'er was dizzy after talking a lot, and finally said: "Do you understand?"

"...Daughter-in-law knows." Qiao Ling'er wanted to cry, but she really hoped that the mother-in-law was here so that she would not suffer less!
"Yi'er." Zongzheng Wudi called Zongzheng Yi again, and when he stepped forward, he said, "We must discipline her well in the future, and we can't let her be so ignorant again, do you understand?"

Zong Zhengyi glanced in Qiao Ling'er's direction, and saw the sadness and anger in her eyes, which made her extremely cute.Pulling the corner of his mouth, he said: "Father, didn't the boy tell you that the boy didn't want Linger to wait too late alone before letting her go back to Qiao's house for a few days? This is not Linger's fault."

"Yi'er!" Zongzheng Wudi raised his voice, he just wanted to give Qiao Ling'er a blow, so that she would "keep his own way" in the future, but his son didn't cooperate with him!

"Also, father," Zongzheng Yi continued without waiting for Zongzheng Wudi's words, stepped aside and said, "Ling'er knows that you like Clivia, but this season is only available in Wucheng. Linger will meet you this time." The Qiao family didn’t come here specially, in fact, they left the mansion only after looking for Clivia for you!”

As Zong Zhengyi said, Qingye and Lanfeng both came forward holding Clivia, and Qingye said: "Master, madam is looking for these top-quality Clivia for you, take a look."

When he saw the three pots of Clivia that were about to bloom, Zongzheng Wudi's eyes flashed surprise and surprise, but he immediately returned to indifference.

"Ahem, whoever wants you to meddle in other people's business, just do your own thing." Zongzheng Wudi concealed his true feelings with a cold and unfriendly tone, and suddenly discovered that this woman was actually Not that annoying.

Qiao Ling'er smiled slightly: "My daughter-in-law understands, and she won't do it again in the future."

This old man is really easy to fool, but of course all this should be attributed to the Prime Minister, if it weren't for him, I am afraid the old man would have to talk about it for a long time!
"Father, Ling'er has been running around looking for these pots of Clivia these days, can my son..." Zong Zhengyi asked with a smile.

"Go, go, I know you love her!" Zongzheng Wudi had already been attracted by the three pots of top-quality Clivia, so why would he have the thought to admonish her?Just let her go this time, let's not make an example, let's not make an example.

"Thank you dad!" Zong Zhengyi looked at Qingye again, "Qingye, you and Lanfeng will send flowers to daddy's backyard."

"Yes, young master." Aoba responded.

When Qiao Ling'er left, she gave the stinky Zhui Ming a warning look, as if saying "Be safe"!
Zhui Ming was full of anger, and it was the first time he was so angry that he couldn't get angry. Damn it, sooner or later he will let her return everything!
When Zongzheng Wudi was inspecting the lovely Clivia, his whole body was suddenly shady and cool. It was strange, it was obviously not late autumn yet, why did the temperature suddenly drop?
Liuyun Court.

A place Qiao Linger was already familiar with. Ning Xiang saw Qiao Linger just after she came out of cleaning the room, and ran over immediately after being dazed.

"Miss, you are finally back, Ningxiang misses you so much! Why didn't you bring Ningxiang with you when you returned home?" Ningxiang cried as she spoke, complaining persistently.

Because she didn't go to Qiao's mansion, but to the border, Ningxiang would definitely be in danger if she followed her. Qiao Ling'er didn't want Ningxiang to be involved in danger, so she left her at Zongzheng's house and asked her to take care of Zongzhengyi Living plus taking care of the room.

Before Qiao Ling'er showed any expression, Yueying over there had already frowned. He hated women crying the most.

"Okay, okay, don't cry, Ningxiang, miss, haven't I come back?" Qiao Ling'er wiped away her tears.

"Miss, you must not leave Ning Xiang behind when you return home." Ning Xiang cried very aggrieved.

"What happened?" Qiao Linger asked sensitively, and turned to Zong Zhengyi.

Zongzheng Yi smiled and did not answer.

Ningxiang glared at Yueying unhappy: "It's all that big piece of wood, miss, he is so hateful, he always bullies me..."

"I didn't..." Yueying explained in embarrassment.

"You have it, you have it. Stinky wood, rotten wood..." As soon as Qiao Ling'er came back, Ning Xiang became more courageous, and even hit him with the rag she had just wiped the table.

Yueying's face darkened, and she squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "Take another look?!" Threat, absolute threat plus warning.

"Miss...Miss, he is attacking me again..." Ning Xianghou hid behind Qiao Ling'er in fear, and cried, "You don't know, he is attacking me every day when you are not around, he is just a asshole……"

Listening to Ningxiang's words, the veins on Yueying's forehead twitched violently, her fists rattled, and small flames burst out of her eyes.As if Ning Xiang said a few more words, he would rush up and strangle her slender neck!
Qiao Ling'er looked at Moon Shadow, then at the little white rabbit-like Ningxiang, and couldn't help but smile with an inexplicable meaning: "It seems that I missed some interesting things during the few days I was away!"

"Ah?" Ning Xiang was confused by what Qiao Ling'er said.

On the other hand, Yueying blushed when she saw Qiao Linger's ambiguous smile, and looked away guiltily, for fear that Qiao Linger would see through his thoughts accidentally.

"Yueying, Ningxiang, stop arguing, you two can talk about your private affairs later." Zong Zhengyi stood up and said, "Ningxiang, your lady just came back, she is tired and needs to rest, you first Go get her something to eat; Yueying, you and Qingye will take that new friend to find a room to live in later."

"Yes, young master." Yue Ying readily agreed, and then turned around and left.

"Okay, uncle, miss, you have to rest well, Ningxiang will go and prepare food for you!" Ningxiang also cared.

Qiao Ling'er rubbed her tense head, it seemed that she was really tired.The two days on the road were really uncomfortable, and the journey was really tiring.

As soon as they arrived in the capital, Zongzhengyan and Fengqing went to do business, she changed back into women's clothes, and came back with Qingye Lanfeng, and of course the chaimi who sold her body to her for a year.

Zong Zhengyi followed Qiao Linger into the room, and asked with concern, "Are you tired?"

Hearing such a gentle transaction, Qiao Ling'er unconsciously felt sour again, turned around and blocked him directly, preventing him from coming in.

"I'm tired from the journey, I need a good rest, you go out first!" A "Brother Yi" made her unhappy, and now a fifth princess came out, her eyes... She is not an idiot, although she has no experience of her own, but It's not that you can't see what the fifth princess looks like!
Zongzheng Yi was stunned for a moment when he said to chase people away, and then he said doubtfully but affirmatively: "Ling'er, are you angry?!"

"No." Someone said stiffly, and turned his face away coolly.

"Your mood is written on your face." Zong Zhengyi said calmly, looking at her awkward and obviously angry face, as if trying to see through her.

"I, say, no, yes!" Qiao Ling'er articulated her negation clearly word by word.

"Really?" Zong Zhengyi asked in disbelief.
