The cannon fodder in the book is laughing, and the scum is slapped in the face
Chapter 6 Her Return Gift
On the day of returning home, Qiao Jinlan sat alone in the carriage and arrived at the Qiao family safely.
When Qiao Jinlan got off the carriage, what she faced was not the longing of the Qiao family members, but disappointed eyes. Her grandmother was the worst of them, and she didn't even try to hide her disappointment.
They were still being reserved, but Qiao Jiaojiao, who was standing next to them and had arrived home earlier, was directly confronting them: "Sister, didn't the prince come back with you?"
Qiao Jinlan smiled slightly and said openly, "The prince met a friend on the way and had a few words with him. He was worried that his grandmother and father would be waiting anxiously, so he asked me to come first and the prince will be here soon."
"So that's how it is." Qiao Jiaojiao believed it, but her eyes were full of gloating smile.
The same thing happened in my previous life.
When Lu Yunxu returned home, he actually followed him, but the people he met on the way were not friends, but his cronies who loved gambling just like him.
As they talked, they went to the gambling house.
Not only did Lu Yunxu lose a lot of money, he also completely forgot about time and didn't even go to the Qiao family, causing Qiao Jinlan to lose face again.
The wife of Marquis Anyang was so angry that she ordered her men to beat Lu Yunxu severely. It was said that from then on, Lu Yunxu hated Qiao Jinlan.
Even if the couple appeared in the same occasion together in the future, Lu Yunxu would not care and would directly speak coldly to Qiao Jinlan.
The news that the Prince of Anyang hated the Crown Princess spread throughout the capital. Not only the noble families, but even the peddlers and hawkers knew about it.
The wives of noble families often use Qiao Jinlan as a negative example to educate their daughters, telling them not to become as tactless as Qiao Jinlan after marriage and make their husbands dislike them.
Lu Yunxu forgot to return home. If Qiao Jinlan was smart, she would find a reason to smooth things over. The wife of Marquis Anyang wouldn't be angry, and Lu Yunxu wouldn't be punished. The family would live in harmony.
How could Lu Yunxu not remember her kindness?
Qiao Jinlan doesn't know how to do things, and has ended up losing everything. In the final analysis, it's all her own fault.
"In that case, let's go in first. The prince will be here soon." Qiao Jiaojiao said with deeper meaning.
She wanted to see, if Lu Yunxu didn't show up no matter how long she waited, how would Qiao Jinlan still have the face to save herself?
There was a little accident on the wedding night and Lu Yunxu stayed. Today was the same as in the previous life.
Qiao Jiaojiao was just waiting to see Qiao Jinlan make a fool of herself.
The men were talking in the front, while the women were in Mrs. Qiao's yard in the back house.
"Is the prince good to you?" At first glance, Mrs. Qiao's words seemed to be out of concern for Qiao Jinlan, but in fact, the gleam in her eyes revealed her calculating nature.
Tian looked at Qiao Jiaojiao with reproach. She didn't know what was wrong with her daughter. She insisted on marrying Lu Liangyi who was living in Anyang Marquis' Mansion.
A young cousin, without any name or status, and with no potential or prospects, what good life can you have in the future by following a man like this?
Look, they are both granddaughters, but the old woman asked about Qiao Jinlan first.
Even though Qiao Jinlan was inferior to her daughter in every way, she married a prince and her status was obviously higher than her daughter.
How could Tian not be angry?
"The prince is very good to me." Qiao Jinlan said obediently.
"As long as it's good to you, you should remember that even if you marry into the Anyang Marquis' Mansion, you are still the daughter of the Qiao family. Only when your family is strong can you have a backer." Old Madam Qiao took the opportunity to pressure her.
Qiao Jinlan responded without refutation.
She didn't waste her energy arguing with these shameless guys. Getting to the bottom of things was better than anything else.
Tian glared at Qiao Jiaojiao with disappointment again. Look, that bitch got honor in front of the old lady by marrying the prince.
If it were at home in the past, the old lady would have ignored Qiao Jinlan.
Once upon a time, her daughter was the old lady's most beloved granddaughter.
Qiao Jiaojiao sighed helplessly in her heart. It was not easy to explain to her mother now. She smiled and said, "Grandma, my mother-in-law asked me to bring a lot of gifts back home."
Having said that, Qiao Jiaojiao ordered her maid to bring in the gifts.
"Grandma, this bracelet is a gift to you." Qiao Jiaojiao handed the brocade box to Old Madam Qiao with both hands.
Old Madam Qiao was careless at first, but as soon as the brocade box was opened and her eyes fell on the bracelet, her cloudy old eyes suddenly sparkled.
"Did your mother-in-law give this to me?" Old Madam Qiao, who was half-leaning, immediately sat up straight.
Qiao Jiaojiao smiled proudly: "Yes, grandma. This is what my mother-in-law asked me to send to you as a gift."
"Your mother-in-law is very thoughtful." Old Mrs. Qiao smiled so much that all the wrinkles on her face were wrinkled together, like a blooming chrysanthemum.
She waved her hand and asked her trusted nanny to carefully put away the brocade box.
It's not good to leave such valuable things outside.
"Mom, this is for you, and also for my brothers and sisters at home..." Qiao Jiaojiao gave away a bunch of things like a boy giving away money.
Those things are all worth a lot of money.
The women in the Qiao family showered them with compliments one after another, praising Qiao Jiaojiao as if she were a flower.
While enjoying the flattery and envious looks from everyone, Qiao Jiaojiao pretended to ask casually, "Sister, what gift did you bring?"
Mrs. Qiao came back to her senses and looked at Qiao Jinlan expectantly: "Yes, what did your mother-in-law prepare for you?"
After all, Qiao Jinlan married the prince, which was definitely better than Lu Liangyi who lived in Anyang Marquis' Mansion.
Mrs. Qiao's burning gaze made Qiao Jinlan smile, and she said slowly, "Returning gift? Didn't Grandmother put it away just now?"
Mrs. Qiao didn't understand for a moment: "When did I accept your return gift?"
Qiao Jinlan's eyes widened in surprise, and she was very confused: "Isn't this the bracelet that grandma asked nanny to put away just now?"
Old Mrs. Qiao was stunned.
The women of the Qiao family were dumbfounded.
Qiao Jiaojiao was immediately furious: "That's my return gift!"
After she finished shouting, Qiao Jiaojiao immediately realized that she had lost her composure, and quickly restored her voice to normal. She sniffed in grievance, "Sister, didn't the Marquis prepare a return gift for you?"
"The Marquis's wife doesn't have it, so does the Crown Prince have it too?"
"Sister, I didn't know you had such a hard time in the Marquis' Mansion." Qiao Jiaojiao looked at Qiao Jinlan with "heartache". "Sister, if you want my return gift to save the situation, just tell me in advance. Why make it so embarrassing?"
"The key is that it also makes my grandmother worry."
Qiao Jiaojiao disagreed softly, "Sister, grandma just asked you whether the prince treats you well. You can't lie to grandma like this."
When Qiao Jiaojiao was speaking, she kept glancing at Old Madam Qiao out of the corner of her eye.
As expected, as she spoke, Mrs. Qiao's expression became more and more ugly.
She was secretly proud of herself.
This is right.
Even if Qiao Jinlan married the prince, she couldn't be bypassed.
