Chapter 158 Just right
This was not what they had planned.
He came here to threaten Qiao Jinlan, and he would never fall out with her until the last moment.
If Qiao Jinlan is really pushed into a corner and everything goes to hell, what's the point if he can't get the money?
Qiao Jinlan is dead, and he didn't get any money from her. Wasn't it a waste of effort?
Tian secretly pinched Qiao Yuanhui lightly. Qiao Yuanhui was stunned. What was this...
"Miss, we won't hold you back. You can live your good life. We can survive even if we have to eat coarse food." Tian cried, "If we really can't survive, even if we beg for food, we won't come to your doorstep and get in your way."
"Master, let's go, let's go!" Tian cried and pulled Qiao Yuanhui to leave.
The people around looked at her curiously and pointed at Qiao Jinlan.
As a daughter, I dress so well, but how can I be so heartless to my parents?
Just because you marry into a wealthy family, do you no longer recognize your poor parents?
How heartless and snobbish!
"Mom and Dad, don't beg her!" Qiao Jiaojiao rushed out and looked at Qiao Jinlan arrogantly, "Do you think that just because your husband's family is rich, you can humiliate your parents at will?"
"I'm telling you, you're wrong!"
"If you don't support your parents, I will!"
Qiao Yuanhui was shocked. He naturally knew what Jiaojiao's situation was.
How does she feed them?
"You could never imagine that? I'm going to marry the Fourth Prince soon." As soon as Qiao Jiaojiao's words came out, everyone around her gasped.
The fourth prince?
Is this marrying into the royal family?
Qiao Yuanhui was no less shocked than the others. He excitedly grabbed Qiao Jiaojiao's arm and said, "Jiaojiao, are you telling the truth?"
His daughter is so capable that she can even marry the Fourth Prince!
If that were the case, wouldn't he become the prince's father-in-law?
This status is much higher than that of the father-in-law of the prince of a marquisate.
"Of course." Qiao Jiaojiao raised her chin proudly, "What the Fourth Prince's people said when they came to our house just now is absolutely true!"
"Haha!" Qiao Yuanhui clapped his hands and laughed, "My daughter is really capable."
"Such a virtuous woman has caught the attention of the royal family."
As Qiao Yuanhui spoke, he deliberately glanced at Qiao Jinlan: "Much better than some people."
What is Qiao Jinlan?
Lu Yunxu's official position is not high.
Not to mention that it is not high, even if Lu Yunxu is so powerful and can climb up, can he be higher than the prince?
"Marry?" Qiao Jinlan burst out laughing, "It's not so easy for a prince to marry a wife."
"I wonder if my sister is the Fourth Prince's wife or... a concubine?"
Qiao Jinlan's question made Qiao Jiaojiao's face turn extremely ugly.
The curious eyes of the people around fell on Qiao Jiaojiao's face, and they immediately understood.
Oh, it turns out you’re a concubine.
"What's wrong with being a concubine?" Qiao Yuanhui shouted angrily, "If the Fourth Prince is crowned a king in the future, Jiaojiao will be a concubine."
"You will never be better than Jiaojiao in your life!"
"Yeah, I can't compete with you." Qiao Jinlan said very kindly, "Since you have always looked down on me, why did you come to me when you were short of money?"
"Why don't you keep looking for your proud daughter Qiao Jiaojiao?"
"When good things happen, think of her. When you need money, think of me. You are really a good father to me!" Qiao Jinlan sneered.
Qiao Jiaojiao said with a sullen face: "Sister, I know your in-laws are rich and you look down on my father and mother. But I will soon be entering the Fourth Prince's mansion."
"I will never allow you to disrespect your father and mother like this again."
"Oh? What? Do you want the Fourth Prince to cause trouble for me?" Qiao Jinlan asked with a raised eyebrow.
Qiao Jiaojiao choked. Even if she thought so, she couldn't say it in public.
If that happened, she would have ruined the Fourth Prince's reputation before even entering his mansion, which would be very disadvantageous to her.
If at that time, the Fourth Prince becomes resentful of her, and she doesn't get the Fourth Prince's favor after he ascends the throne, what will she do?
She was already very unwilling that she could not become the Fourth Prince's wife. If anything else went wrong, she would really hate Qiao Jinlan to death.
She would never be fooled by Qiao Jinlan and would not let the Fourth Prince hate her.
"The Fourth Prince is an upright man, how could he do such a thing? I am just advising you, sister. I am here to take care of our parents, so don't think of bullying them again." Qiao Jiaojiao said this righteously, but all she got in return was a sneer from Qiao Jinlan.
"Whatever you say is what it is." Qiao Jinlan said, and reminded Qiao Jiaojiao, "You can get out of the way. You are blocking the road."
"Since my sister has become successful, don't come to me for no reason in the future."
Qiao Jinlan didn't care about Qiao Jiaojiao and the others' reactions, and just left with the maid.
"How selfish and cold-blooded!" Qiao Yuanhui cursed, then excitedly said to Qiao Jiaojiao, "My dear daughter, let's go home."
His daughter is about to move into the Fourth Prince's mansion, so what is he still talking about with Qiao Jinlan?
From now on, he will be the father-in-law of the Fourth Prince, so he can have as much silver as he wants, right?
Qiao Jiaojiao took a deep look at Qiao Jinlan's back and sneered in her heart.
Qiao Jinlan just wait.
She is about to make a comeback, and by then, Qiao Jinlan will be so envious and jealous of her.
Qiao Jiaojiao proudly took Qiao Yuanhui and Tian back home.
Qiao Jinlan walked around the street, bought what she wanted, and then returned home.
And Lu Yunxu, who was supposed to be at the Dali Temple, was actually at home.
Qiao Jinlan was not surprised at all: "Everything went well, you didn't have to come back specially."
Lu Yunxu's men had been keeping an eye on the Qiao family. As soon as the Fourth Prince's men arrived, he knew the news.
He sent someone to inform her, and she deliberately let Qiao Yuanhui block her.
Qiao Jiaojiao has always liked to compete with her. Now that Qiao Jiaojiao is going to enter the Fourth Prince’s Mansion, Qiao Jiaojiao will definitely run over and tell her.
If Qiao Jiaojiao was carried into the Fourth Prince's palace in a sedan chair like this, no one else would know.
It's just right. Let Qiao Jiaojiao say it herself, and people in Beijing can also know the news.
It will be convenient if you want to do things in the future.
"I was also working on a case nearby, so I came home to have a meal." Lu Yunxu said, "The time I arranged is just right, right?"
Qiao Jinlan smiled: "How can you make mistakes when doing things?"
"Qiao Yuanhui blocked me, Qiao Jiaojiao came over, and everything was just right."
"Well, that's good." Lu Yunxu nodded reservedly, seeming to be indifferent.
However, if the corners of his lips weren't so raised, Qiao Jinlan would really believe it.
I don't know why this kid is so proud of himself.
Fortunately, he only showed his emotions in front of her, not when they were outside.
Otherwise, she would really worry that his thoughts would be seen through by others in advance.
