Chapter 16: The New Daughter-in-law Comes to the Door
Zhou Chengyan gave Qiao Ai a reassuring look.
Although Qiao Ai didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd, he believed that he would definitely stand on the same front as him, and he also cooperated: "Yes, Dad, you can notify them to come over with you now." ”
"Good, good." Qiao Chongjiang nodded again and again, took out his mobile phone and sent messages to several other people.
Zhou Chengyan relied on his height advantage, and after seeing the news that Xiang Zizhen agreed to come, he immediately spoke: "Then let's go home first and prepare to meet you." ”
"Okay." Qiao Chongjiang put away his mobile phone and walked out, thinking that he had formed a family with the Zhou family, the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be stopped, and Qiao Ai's gaze also brought a little love: "Ai Ai, when you get to the Zhou family, you must behave well, do you hear?" ”
Ned?
From the time she can remember, Qiao Chongjiang will only call Qiao Lu 'Lulu' affectionately, and she will always be 'Qiao Ai' with her name and surname.
As soon as she thought of the reason why he had become loving, Qiao Ai turned her head away, and for a moment she was not even in the mood to perfunctory him.
Qiao Chongjiang didn't notice it at all, and was still chattering there about how to please Mrs. Zhou when Qiao Ai was going to be the most bitter, just when he said the most bitter heart, Zhou Chengyan stopped suddenly, in his surprised and puzzled gaze, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he said slowly: "Dad, what you said is too much, I like Ai Ai, so even if she doesn't do anything, my family will definitely like her." ”
happened to arrive at the parking lot, he personally opened the car door for Qiao Ai, let her get into the car first, and then closed the car door, "bang", as if a hammer hit Qiao Chongjiang's chest, making him shake uncontrollably, but when he looked up, he found that Zhou Chengyan's face was still an impeccable smile, as if the movement mixed with anger just now was just his illusion: "Dad, let's go first, you hurry up." ”
He said that, without waiting for Qiao Chongjiang's reply, he turned around and got into the car.
Qiao Chongjiang looked at the roaring sports car, and realized afterwards - could it be that Qiao Ai really made Zhou Chengyan interested in her, instead of just playing?
Thinking about it carefully, Zhou Chengyan has never had any lace news.
His heartbeat suddenly became intense, if so, then the value of this daughter is much more important than Qiao Lu!
Qiao Ai fastened her seatbelt and asked with a frown, "Why did you let them go to Zhou's house too?" ”
Zhou Chengyan's knuckled fingers rested on the steering wheel at will, and when he heard this, he looked at Qiao Ai playfully: "I don't know why you just followed me to talk?" Husband sings and wives follow, Ai Ai, you are really becoming more and more conscious of being Mrs. Zhou. ”
"Don't call me Ai Ai." Joe wasn't used to such an intimate title.
"Okay, my wife is the biggest, I listen to my wife." Zhou Chengyan shrugged his shoulders and said connivingly.
Compared with the title of 'wife', Qiao Ai twitched the corners of her mouth: "You still call me Ai Ai." ”
"Don't ask for it for a while, you're such a grinding goblin." Zhou Chengyan knocked on the steering wheel, and his eyes lit up: "It's better for me to call you a goblin." ”
Qiao Ai was almost speechless: "Just call me Ai Ai, don't call me Else!" ”
"Okay." Zhou Chengyan sighed with regret, but his eyes were full of smiles.
Along the way, Zhou Chengyan kept coming up with new names to try to call Qiao Ai, and one was more numb than the other, so that Qiao Ai completely forgot the initial inquiry, until the car stopped at the door of Zhou's house, and the housekeeper personally opened the car door for her, looking at the centuries-old Zhou family's old mansion that appeared in front of her, Qiao Ai felt a little nervous in hindsight.
She had always known that the Zhou family was the oldest family in City A, but this was the first time she had set foot in it, and she still set foot as one of its owners.
"Let's go." Zhou Chengyan hugged her waist and said in a relaxed tone: "Let's go home." ”
His title made Qiao Ai no longer so nervous, and followed him into the Zhou Mansion with a thick sense of history.
Mrs. Zhou is over eighty years old, full of gorgeous hair, full of luxury, as soon as she saw Qiao Ai's figure, she immediately waved to her with a smile, and her dignified and distant appearance turned into kind and amiable, and said affectionately: "This is Qiao Ai, come over and let grandma see." ”
"Grandma." Qiao Ai walked over and saluted obediently, and Mrs. Zhou immediately took out a big red envelope and stuffed it into her hand.
"Don't be nervous, just treat me as your own grandmother, if you dare to bully you, you tell me, and grandma will teach him a lesson for you."
Qiao Ai hadn't enjoyed this kind of family warmth for a long time, and she didn't know what to react to for a while, so she nodded her head in disguise.
Zhou Chengyan smiled and sat down next to Qiao Ai, "Grandma, you are provoking the feelings between our husband and wife, but I have always held Ai Ai in the palm of my hand for fear of falling, and I am afraid of melting in my mouth, how can I bully her?" ”
Mrs. Zhou glared at him: "Others don't know, I don't know you yet." ”
She still wanted to say something, but the housekeeper walked in at this time and said that Qiao Chongjiang had brought Li Lan and Xiang Zizhen had arrived with Qiao Lu and the four of them.
The smile on Qiao Ai's face gradually disappeared, and noticing this, Old Lady Zhou returned to her usual dignity on her face, and said lightly: "Please come in." ”
As soon as Qiao Lu walked into the old mansion of the Zhou family, she couldn't stop feeling jealous in her heart.
She has only heard that the Zhou family is a century-old family, and she has no detailed concept in her heart, but now along the way, looking at those seemingly random but elaborate arrangements, those low-key furnishings with incomparable luxury, even the maids, seem to be a grade higher than the Xiang family.
What qualifications does Joe have to marry into such a family and step on her head?
It's clear that she's not as good as her in everything!
After his eyes fell on the red envelope in Qiao Ai's hand, his eyes lit up.
In this kind of family, the new daughter-in-law comes to the door, and the grandmother has to take out one or two heirlooms to give to the granddaughter-in-law's representatives, but Qiao Ai only has red envelopes, which is clearly a representative, and Mrs. Zhou is not satisfied with Qiao Ai at all!
After all, Qiao Ai has been burdened with the title of illegitimate daughter under the operation of their mother and daughter!
"Hello old lady, my name is Qiao Lu, and I am Qiao Ai's sister." Before anyone present could speak, Qiao Lu had already preemptively said: "My sister has always had a big temper, if there is anything that collides with you, you must not be like her, after all, her mother is ...... Over the years, there have been some rumors, which has caused her to be more sensitive, so she is more impulsive. ”
She seems to be a good sister who thinks about her sister, but in fact, she directly deducted two 'illegitimate daughters' and 'temperamental' hats for Qiao Ai.
A touch of disgust flashed in Qiao Ai's eyes, after her mother died that year, her reputation was so bad that Qiao Lu's mother and daughter were ruin, resulting in everyone now thinking that her mother was a junior, and Li Lan, a former outsider, was the main room.
She was about to speak, but there was a wrinkled hand on the back of her hand, and he patted it lightly on the back of her hand.
