My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 116 Think Big
After finally sending Xu Zhen away, the weather was already hot and Qin Yuan didn't want to go out again, so she stayed in the house and asked someone to bring paints and brushes to prepare to paint.

The painting shows a pot of peonies.

Cui Ming couldn't help but admire, "Sixth Master is really meticulous in taking care of this flower. The peonies in the Qin Mansion are simply incomparable."

Hongye curled her lips, "I said they were flower seeds brought back from Gansu. I guess they cost a lot of money."

Qin Yuan said: "You vulgar thing, you always talk about money, don't be so abrupt with the flowers, go and match the colors for me."

Hongye smiled and walked away.

Cui Ming asked: "She won't come next time, will she? She ran into such a big snag."

Even if you don't understand this, you should understand it.

Qin Yuan said: "She came here for her wedding. I won't be at peace until the wedding is set."

Whether you understand or not, it’s okay if you don’t understand.

Cui Ming stopped talking.

The marriage of the young master Tang cannot be settled in a short time. If Xu Zhen cannot find someone better than the young master Tang, she will come to bother him as soon as she has time.

Qin Yuan said to himself: "We must think of a way."

In the evening, Qin Yuan went to the upper room and insisted on having dinner with the old lady. During the meal, she pretended to ask casually, "Mother, the Qiqiao Festival is coming soon. I wonder how Baozhu's needlework is going."

Mrs. Gu was very happy at first, but after hearing this, she said, "If she can learn to embroider a mandarin duck, I will be very happy."

Hongye almost laughed out loud.

Sister Yu asked: "Why do you want to embroider mandarin ducks?"

Rong Ma said, "Girls have to embroider their dowry when they get married. Even if they don't embroider anything, they have to embroider a pair of mandarin ducks on their veil or inner shirt."

Yu Jie'er nodded ignorantly.

Cheng Ge'er didn't care about these things, but he cared a lot about Qin Yuan and always listened to her quietly.

Qin Yuan said worriedly, "But the Marquis has signed Baozhu up for the Qiqiao Competition. Judging from the Marquis's expression, I'm afraid he will always remember this matter."

Well, even if the Marquis can’t remember it, she still remembers it.

Madam Gu said, "Then I'll ask the Sixth Old Wife and Zhen Jie'er. Didn't they accompany Baozhu in embroidery? Even if they can't meet Hui'er's requirements, they can't go out and embarrass themselves."

Baozhu's personality makes it difficult to find a partner. Wouldn't it be even more difficult if people knew that she was a lazy girl who never sewed?

Qin Yuan smiled and nodded, saying, "Mother, you are thoughtful. Yuan'er was just thinking about it. Zhenjie has a good temper and is a little older than Baozhu. Let her supervise carefully. Maybe Baozhu can embroider the mandarin ducks well. After all, Sixth Brother's wife has to take care of the household expenses and can't spare that much time."

Madam Gu also smiled and said, "Okay, okay, okay, I'll do as you say."

After Qin Yuan left, the two children were also taken away. Madam Gu said to Rong Madam, "Yuan'er is full of tricks. I think she was annoyed by Zhen Jie'er sticking to her, so she deliberately said something about Baozhu."

Aunt Rong smiled and said, "Then you still agreed to her?"

"What if she doesn't agree? Hui'er will definitely chase Baozhu and ask about it when he comes back. Haven't you heard that Hui'er said that he doesn't hit women, so he will hit Lao Liu? I think Lao Liu's wife doesn't love her husband, and she was ruthless when she teased Lao Liu. Could it be that she is still holding a grudge for being lazy and wants Hui'er to deal with Lao Liu?"

Madam Rong endured for a long time before she said, "I think the Marquis just wants to punish the Sixth Master and is looking for an excuse. Every time you beat him, he would find an excuse to punish the Sixth Master. The Sixth Master always thinks that the Third Brother treats him the best. But then again, the Sixth Master also likes to pick trouble with the Marquis, so it's no one's fault." "These two sons...never mind...never mind..."

Old Madam Gu was also troubled and didn't bother to care about their affairs. It had been like this since they were young. After being separated for so many years and getting together again, it was like this again.

It's like a turtle and a mung bean - they hit it off.

Since he was little, the sixth child has liked to follow the third child around, and they are closer to him than children born from the same mother's womb. The child is weak and no one has too many expectations for him, so he will have to rely on the third child to support him in the future.

It's good to be a little stupid.

The next day, Qin Yuan dealt with his affairs early and went out, going straight to Renhe Hall.

Xu Zhen came to block her again, and only went back when he knew that she had left the house.

Madam Gu Liu said, "The old lady is asking about Gu Baozhu's needlework again, saying that the Qiqiao Festival is coming soon, and Gu Baozhu's needlework cannot be embarrassing. You must think of a way for your aunt to embroider something well."

Xu Zhen looked a little embarrassed.

Madam Gu Liu said, "You should take care of Baozhu's matter first. I called you here under the guise of Baozhu."

Xu Zhen thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, Auntie, Baozhu's temper is really hard to persuade. She is holding back a lot of anger, and no matter how good the embroiderer is, she can't learn. Her hands are full of needle holes, and the embroiderer still can't teach her well. I think she is reluctant to quit because of the Marquis's Mansion."

Madam Gu Liu couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's really difficult for you, but you have to think of a way. If it were easy, I wouldn't be able to persuade the old lady to agree to let you live in the mansion permanently."

Xu Zhen had to rack his brains to think of a solution.

Life in the Marquis' Mansion is much better than at home. Besides, since Qin Siyuan is right in front of her, she can find ways to meet him more often.

Madam Zhao asked Madam Gu Liu, "Madam, why don't you tell Miss Zhen about your plan so that she can be at ease."

Madam Gu Liu said indifferently: "Only when she ran into obstacles everywhere did she realize how precious my kindness was. It was so easy to get, so she took it for granted. My sister-in-law has always been like this. Look at her living here. Apart from going to Wutong Garden to be a good girl, what else has she done? Shouldn't she share my worries about Baozhu? Even my third sister-in-law's advice to her to learn embroidery from the embroiderer made some sense, but look at her..."

Aunt Zhao smiled and said, "Madam has always been very smart, and she can see clearly these little things. Miss Zhen is still young, so she acted a little hastily."

Qin Yuan went to Renhe Hall. Doctor Li was not out seeing patients and was sitting in the inner hall.

Seeing her come in, Doctor Li smiled and said, "What a rare guest! How come you came in person?"

Qin Yuan asked Cui Ming and Hong Ye to wait outside, and after sitting down, he asked, "Uncle Li, is business going well these days?"

Doctor Li blinked and said, "It's just a small business, how good can it be? Speaking of which, you married into a high position and became a marquis' wife, but you still miss me."

"Even if I'm not thinking about you, I still have to think about my prescription."

Qin Yuan replied to him.

Doctor Li complained about all sorts of things before saying, "Now that the weather is hot, the best-selling items are still those drinks that help cool you down."

After saying that, he glanced at Qin Yuan's face and said, "It would be great if there was a good recipe for a plaster. I'm just worried that you're now a marquis' wife and you'd look down on our business."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "You have a long history with the Chen family, so of course you know my grandfather's abilities, but not much has been passed down to me. I think a lot of them have been obtained by my maternal relatives. It would be great if we could find them. Now that I have the Dingbei Marquis Mansion behind me, we can think bigger when doing business, don't you think?"
