Chapter 39: Uncertain Marriage
Lu Yong's face turned pale and blue, but he didn't dare to say a word.
The Qingyu Guards behind him were watching him closely, and every word and action of his would be heard by Shen Yuheng.
Seeing that Lu Yong didn't dare to say anything, Qiao Dongjun felt a little relieved.
In relationships between people, apart from the sacrifices and concessions that come from true feelings from the heart, the rest are mostly checks and balances.
For people who have no bottom line and lack morals, such as Lu Yong in front of her, she must use her strength to suppress him.
In the early years, when Lord Lu was seriously ill, the Tianshan Snow Grass that saved his life was found by her Qiao family for her father-in-law.
When the old marquis was around, he could still control this playboy, but as soon as the old marquis was gone, he started to act recklessly.
Lu Qiaoxiao's hand was being held by Qiao Lin, who was asking her all sorts of questions, but she couldn't help but glance at her grandmother who was frowning on the side.
The rented mother Qiao Dongjun is also a legend in the area.
When he was young, he was a horse bandit and a bandit leader. In the end, he became a good man because of his grandfather, a poor and unknown scholar at that time.
Fortunately, her grandfather was devoted to her and later embarked on a path of business, and their lives became better day by day.
Unfortunately, because of my mother’s passing in the previous life, my grandparents couldn’t accept the fact that they had to see their loved one die, and their health collapsed. They both passed away shortly after my mother’s death.
Fortunately, my relatives are still alive in this life.
Perhaps sensing his granddaughter's eager gaze, Qiao Dongjun suppressed his millions of dissatisfactions with his son-in-law, Lu Yong. He took a deep breath and looked lovingly at Lu Qiaoxiao in front of him: "Qiaoqiao, I haven't seen you for a few years. You've grown so big."
Lu Qiaoxiao had clearly never met his rented mother before, but he felt inexplicably close to her.
Maybe this is what it feels like to be connected by blood.
"Grandma, I've often heard mother talk about your heroic deeds in your youth, and now I finally get to meet you."
Lu Qiaoxiao's eyes were filled with sadness.
She felt sad when she thought that such a person who had been so successful all his life would eventually die with hatred because of his children's unfortunate lives.
"Child, why are you crying for no reason?" Qiao Dongjun gently stroked his granddaughter's fair cheek with his fingertips.
Lu Qiaoxiao said softly: "Grandma, I just think it's great to have a home."
Hearing this, Qiao Lin beside her couldn't help but be moved. Qiao Lin's elder sister Qiao Yu and second sister Qiao Shan also wiped the corners of their eyes with their sleeves at the same time.
The three sisters had always been close friends, but when they heard that their youngest sister married Lu Yong and then welcomed that bastard concubine into the house with a big belly, they advised her to return to Qingcheng Mountain.
But Qiaolin had to stick to her path, so they had a mixture of love and hate towards this little sister. The hate came from being angry at her for not fighting for it.
There was a lot of fun and laughter in the yard, and everyone was surrounding Lu Qiaoxiao and Qiao Lin, while Lu Yong was left out.
When he heard Lu Qiaoxiao say that it was great to have a family, he felt left out and felt a little uncomfortable: "My dear daughter, why haven't I heard you talk about how great our Lu family is at home? Instead, you mistakenly treat people with other surnames as treasures!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qiao Yu's temper flared up again, and he wanted to slap this bastard in the face. Fortunately, Qiao Shan stopped him in time and prevented a fight.
We had a reunion dinner at noon, and everyone had their own thoughts.
After dinner, Qiao Lin pulled her mother aside and asked quietly, "Where's Daddy?"
Qiao Dongjun glared at her: "Don't you know why your father doesn't want to come to dinner?"
Lu Yong sat aside, feeling very disdainful.
If he had not been forced by Prime Minister Chen to take Qiao Lin back, he would not have come to this remote and poor place!
Qiao Dongjun watched Qiao Lin walk towards the backyard and fell into deep thought.
The old man originally loved this quirky little girl the most, but after she got married, she was not as close to him as before.
Because both sides have a knot in their hearts.
I hope it can be solved.
At this moment, a pair of hands gently wrapped around his cold hands. Qiao Dongjun looked up and saw that it was his granddaughter.
"Grandma, don't worry. This time I came back just to fix my mother's softness towards my father."
"My granddaughter wants my mother to fully understand my father. He is not worth her efforts at all."
Qiao Dongjun's eyes were filled with shock, "Qiao Qiao, you——"
She knew Lu Qiaoxiao's reputation in the capital, but she also believed that most of his bad reputation was based on hearsay.
Now that I see her, she's clearly a good girl who knows how to deal with things and distinguishes right from wrong! She's even more discerning than her mother!
"Grandma, I have a plan, just listen to me--" Lu Qiaoxiao's eyes turned slightly, and there was a coldness in his voice.
She wants,
From now on, Lu Yong will hand over the power of the family——
Holding Wang in the palm of her hand, it was just like what they did to her in the previous life -
.
Mu Qi stayed in the house alone, listening to the laughter coming from the outer courtyard from time to time, feeling itchy and angry.
He has always disliked his son-in-law Lu Yong, and he hated his daughter even more for not being able to judge people and being willing to leave her hometown to serve someone who didn't care about her!
He adhered to monogamy throughout his life and let his children and grandchildren take the surname Qiao Dongjun.
People are willing to go through the gates of hell several times to give birth to your children. It's just a surname, what's there to be unwilling to give up?
Seeing the door being pushed open gently, Mu Qi held his breath, but his brows were tightly locked.
"That bastard is here?"
Qiao Lin's mouth drooped. She had been back for a few months and her father's mood had been calmed down by her.
But as soon as Lu Yong arrived, Dad was set on fire like a firecracker.
"Dad, I know you don't like Lu Yong, but the fact that he is willing to put aside his pride and come to find me this time shows that he knows that he did not do well in the past." Qiao Lin explained carefully.
"Humph, it's been more than ten years. How many times have you come to our house during this period? Don't you know?"
"Do you think he loves you or that vixen at home? Don't you know?"
"Now this bastard has realized that it's good to have a housekeeper, so he has the audacity to come here."
Mu Qi is a businessman and has met countless people.
As a man himself, he knew best what Lu Yong was thinking.
In the yard, Qiao Dongjun and her two daughters were chatting with Lu Qiaoxiao. When asked about Qiao Xiao's marriage, she suddenly became hesitant.
Qiao Yu laughed and said, "Why? Is my nephew-in-law a jackal, a tiger or a leopard, and is that what scares you so much?"
Lu Qiaoxiao thought that although she was not as strong as jackals, tigers and leopards, her future was uncertain.
To be precise, the future of marriage is uncertain.
The Prime Minister was calm and dignified, never showing his emotions. His attitude towards her was like the evening breeze in March, sometimes tickling her heart, sometimes making her feel unpredictable.
She couldn't help but think of that time at the Prime Minister's residence, the hug that caught her off guard.
And the unique orchid fragrance on his body——
It was like the water of a mirror lake melting in her heart, stirring up ripples.
Lu Qiaoxiao pursed his lips as his mind drifted slightly.
This is a family marriage, and Shen Yuheng is a noble person, so he will naturally respect her.
If you have other desires, it would be a pipe dream.
Lu Qiaoxiao quickly comforted himself:
Shen Yuheng is indeed a perfect match for her. She has already got such a beautiful woman like Tian Shangyue, so what else could she be dissatisfied with?
She earned it.
