Chapter 439 This Ancient Coin Can Talk

    

e is still far behind.""...and he doesn't even consider how he forced someone into marrying him in the first place. If he had used Lu Qinan's so-called roundabout strategy, he probably would still be...The next day, after Qiao Baier had lunch at her home, she hurried to catch a plane back to the city.

Gu Ruoyan, as usual, brought her big and small bags of souvenirs.

"This is tea cake for your father-in-law... This bag contains your childhood photos and some video recordings..."

"I'm not taking that, I'll just leave it in my room. Those photos and DVDs aren't that interesting anyway."

The two photo albums document her first week of life, her first year, her first day of kindergarten, her first day of elementary school, her first award, and various other memorable photos. The DVDs contain recordings of her performing in some talent shows at school, especially a painful memory captured on film when she was forced to learn the piano.

Gu Ruoyan chuckled and shoved the bag into her hand. "Here, this is what Zhi Mu specifically told me to give you. He wants you to bring it back to the Jun family. I guess he wants to see some of your childhood embarrassing moments."

Qiao Bao'er sighed and looked up.

"You should live a good life with Zhi Mu over there, don't make him angry on a whim. The Jun family has many relatives, both direct and collateral, so it is indeed a bit complicated. However, as long as the two of you trust each other and are reasonable, others don't matter."

Qiao Ba'er got into the taxi and waved, assuring once again, "I'm a mother now, I won't be reckless. Don't worry, don't worry."

The car gradually drove away, Gu Ruyue stood on the spot and sighed long.

Qiao Wenyu leaned on his cane and walked out slowly, raising his head to look at the car shadow. He snorted coldly, "Does she remember that she's a mother now"

Gu Ruyan turned back to look at him, couldn't help but mutter, "Every time she comes back, I lecture her like an old woman. She married into a family like that, how can I not worry... Your daughter is just too unreliable."

"Xiao Yan, you took care of her food and lodging since she was a child. You've done so much for her." Qiao Wen Yu has recently become quite humorous.

Then the two looked at each other and smiled, Qiao's daughter couldn't help but worry.

When Qiao Bao'er rushed back to the Jun family mansion, the main hall was already filled with the master of the Jun family, her father-in-law, her mother-in-law Jiang Meili, and Zhi Yan. Jun Zimo had also returned.

"Grandpa, this tea cake is brought to you by my aunt..." Qiao Bao'er walked over with her big and small bags just like usual.

Master Jun first glanced at her, then took the tea cake and carefully sniffed it. "This tea cake is good. Thank you to my aunt on my behalf, she's thoughtful."

The old man seemed to automatically ignore her private return to her natal home yesterday.

"Tell the housekeeper to start dinner a little earlier today, with some soup first," he said.

“I’ll go urge them right away.” The butler immediately went to do it.

Jiang Meili suddenly spoke, her voice filled with anger. "Dad, she lied first. She reported sick leave to the company and went back to her hometown without telling us a word. She even made Zhi Mu think something was wrong with her, so he had to rush back from Europe..."

I thought I'd get scolded when Qiao Baier came back today, but she didn't seem remorseful at all. She just took these humble tea cakes as if nothing happened. The Jun family really doesn't care about things like tea cakes.

Elder Jun is too partial. When she was the daughter-in-law of the Jun family before, she hadn't seen him treat her this well.

Now Qiao Bao'er has made a mistake, and not only was she not reprimanded, but the servants were also instructed to prepare dinner ahead of time, starting with soup. This is just to say that she was too tired from rushing and needs to have some soup first.

Jiang Meili was simply too exasperated. She put on an air of seniority and scolded her, "From now on, if you dare to be so unruly again, go kneel at the ancestral hall for a day!"

The Jun family's ancestral hall is over in Xiyuan. Qiao Baier has always been superstitious and avoids anything to do with ghosts and spirits, so she really dislikes going near Xiyuan. Forcing her to kneel at the ancestral hall would be worse than beating her.

The old man suddenly spoke, "Your son is right here. His wife will teach him a lesson herself, you needn't worry about it so much."

Jiang Meili was unwilling to accept it, “But Dad, this time she was clearly in the wrong. Why can’t she just admit…”

"Isn't it just a small matter What more do you want to make a fuss about"

"Master Jun, seeing that his daughter-in-law was still clinging to this, immediately put on a stern face and said in a commanding voice, 'Young people make mistakes, it's fine if you scold a few words. As a family, we shouldn't dwell on such things!'"

The entire stadium was silent. Jiang Meili had resentment in her heart, but she didn't dare to refute him directly.

Normally, she adheres to the principles of a noblewoman, refraining from speaking out of turn in front of her elders. Today, however, she was so enraged that she couldn't control herself, which is why she chose to reprimand this woman from the Qiao family in front of Mr. Jun and her son.

"When I go out later, I'll definitely tell you." Qiao Baoer felt the atmosphere was very stiff and after thinking for a moment, she assured the old man.

Mr. Jun snorted, "From now on, don't ever say 'from now on' again!"

Qiao Bao'er was scolded and her waist sat straight.

The old man glared at her, his cane thumping as he walked towards the kitchen. Junzhi Mu, who had been silent up until now, also stood up immediately. The rest of them, naturally, didn't dare to utter another word and followed him sheepishly.

Just like usual, the Jun family eats dinner with rules. You can't speak too much, and you definitely shouldn't speak out of turn.

Qiao Bao'er recalled having dinner at the Qiao family yesterday, it was so comfortable. Her expression remained calm, but her eyes unconsciously glanced towards Jun Zhiyan beside her.

She didn't want to provoke Jun family's relatives, after all, she was Jun Zimo's sister, and the old man usually doted on her very much.

Therefore, with no concrete evidence, she cannot speak recklessly.

However, now Qiao Bao'er thought about how she took a 'sick leave' yesterday at the company and this innocent-looking younger sister actually reported her. Subconsciously, she started to reject Jun Zhiyan.

" Qiao Bao'er, you misunderstood her."Even without the typical candlelit dinner setting, the atmosphere was undeniably romantic.Qiao Ba'er and Jun Zhimu sat opposite each other, the manager serving them dish after dish of local delicacies...
