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

Chapter 124 What do you know?

The old woman said, "Master Qin is very handsome. He is already a juren. He will take the imperial examination next year."

The maid turned around and told Gu Baozhu, who was furious: "Why did you just skim through my eyes and keep saying that you were helping me prepare for the Qiqiao Competition? It turns out you were just using me as a cover."

Gu Baozhu said, "You should find out how that Young Master Qin could have made Xu Zhen so obsessed."

Mr. Gu Liu was inevitably disappointed when he learned that Qin Siyuan came and left without even bothering to see him. But when he realized that Qin Siyuan had not gone to the upper room to pay a visit to the old lady, which showed that something was indeed wrong, he felt relieved.

Seeing Gu Baozhu's maid and the servant beside him asking about it, he said angrily: "You are the one who asked about Young Master Qin. He has learned bad things from the Xu family. The chief priest said that he will definitely get the title of Jinshi, and he is also good-looking. Mother gave him all the square brick Duan inkstones that she had collected for many years."

When he was a child, he tried to polish the Duan inkstone again and again but failed to get it right. When he grew up, he knew better and didn't want it anymore.

Who made him not even a scholar?

This Duan inkstone should be paired with a handsome scholar.

After Gu Baozhu learned about it, she snorted, "It will only boost others' ambitions. I want to see how great this Young Master Qin is."

She had always been spoiled, and was only polite to Xu Zhen for Madam Gu Liu's sake. But now she had been trying to make things difficult for Xu Zhen for two days, causing Xu Zhen to complain bitterly. She didn't know how she had offended this young lady.

Qin Yuan didn't know about these things. She and Hongye only guessed where the Marquis got the ice basin from.

"It's really strange. I asked around but didn't hear where the two ice basins were missing," Hongye said with some frustration.

Qin Yuan asked: "No one knows that the Marquis is back?"

Hongye shook her head.

Qin Yuan thought that if there weren't two more ice basins in the room, she would have thought she was dreaming.

"Then don't make it public."

Hongye nodded: "I know."

After lunch, Qin Yuan lazily leaned on the pillow in a daze. Hongye said, "Madam and the second young lady are here to see the young lady."

Qin Yuan was a little stunned, "Who?"

"Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Lin are here."

Qin Yuan: “…”

Did Cui and Qin Wan come to see her?
Hongye said, "Xiaohong came to deliver the letter. The old lady received the lady and the second young lady upstairs. They will come to Wutong Garden later."

"Oh," Qin Yuan understood. She was afraid that Cui had somehow learned about her frightened horse and came to the Marquis' Mansion with Qin Wan.

Cui valued this marriage with the Marquis's Mansion very much, and by the way, she also valued her.

"Then get ready quickly," Qin Yuan ordered.

Hongye nodded and went to get busy.

Not long after, the little maid reported that someone had arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and Qin Yuan hurried out to greet him.

Cui was seen with a broad smile on her face, the joy in her eyes seemed tangible, but Qin Wan's expression on the side was a little strange and distorted.

Aunt Rong was there with her.

When she saw Qin Yuan coming out, Rong Ma said in a hurry: "Why doesn't Madam stay in the room? The wind will make the wound heal slowly. Madam is not an outsider."

Cui was stunned for a moment, and immediately took her hand, and asked with concern: "Yuan'er, why did you come out to pick up me and your sister when you were injured? Do we still need to observe these etiquettes between us?"

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Mother, Rong Mama was a little worried about me. I applied the medicine from Renhetang and I feel much better now."

Qin Wan said sourly: "I never thought that Doctor Li from Renhetang would have such ability."

Cui also said: "Doctor Li used to come to our house often for consultation. I didn't expect him to be such a great doctor. You are also lucky. I don't know how many people want to ask for a box of Yurong Cream." Qin Wan said: "Of course, sister has always had good luck, otherwise she wouldn't have married into the Marquis's Mansion."

Cui glanced at Qin Wan.

Qin Yuan pretended not to hear and helped Cui walk into the yard, saying with a smile: "Mother has never been to my yard. Let me take you for a walk and have a look around."

Qin Wan added, "The mansion is so big, we are already tired. Okay, my mother and I are here mainly to check on my sister's injury."

Aunt Rong frowned as she listened.

Cui was humiliated, but she couldn't scold her in public, so she said, "Yuan'er, your sister is very delicate. We heard that you were frightened yesterday, so we came to see you. As long as you are fine, we will be relieved."

Qin Wan didn't say anything else, just twisted the handkerchief in her hand.

Qin Yuan knew why Qin Wan was like that, so she just smiled and said, "It's nothing serious, you'll be fine after a night's rest."

As they spoke, the group walked across the covered bridge and entered the main house.

Since her mother and sister had arrived, there was no reason for them to sit in the hall. Qin Wan and Cui were asked to sit in the outer room of the main house, and Rong Mama took her leave.

Qin Yuan ordered someone to pour tea, which was the Longjing tea that Cui liked, and the snack was lotus seed paste, which was in season.

The room was filled with the scent of agarwood, and in an ice jar nearby were large blocks of ice carved into the shape of flowers, dripping with crystal clear water.

It was a bit hot at first, but as soon as I sat down I felt cool and refreshed.

Cui nodded secretly, the wealth of this marquis's mansion was indeed different.

The items displayed on the antique shelf are extraordinary and the layout is grand and luxurious.

This main wife is so far inferior to her main wife.

Qin Wan was in a trance. The Wutong Garden where she lived in her previous life was deserted and filled with a desolate and decadent atmosphere. She didn't expect that when she revisited the place, she would see a completely different scene.

Cui said, "Summer in the Marquis's Mansion is much better. This big block of ice is enough for the Qin Mansion to use for a day."

Qin Wan didn't say anything.

Qin Yuan said quickly, "I just knew that mother was coming, so I ordered people to put it up. It's summer and we can't be too cool, so we just put out a few ice basins. Wutong Garden is well ventilated, and there are ponds, flowers, plants and trees in the yard, so it's not too hot."

Cui said with satisfaction: "Just cherish your blessings."

After a few words of idle chat, Cui said, "Your father knew that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi saved you, so he urged me to come and see you. First, he wanted to see how your injuries were and how you were doing in the Marquis's Mansion. After all, you are not as convenient as Wan'er. The couple often come to the Qin Mansion, and your father is bound to worry about you. Second, he wanted me to tell you that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi saved your life, and the Marquis's Mansion should reward him handsomely, but how to thank him is very particular."

Qin Yuan and Qin Wan both knew that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi would die in a few years unless something unexpected happened.

Qin Wan curled her lips secretly when she heard this and just looked around at the furnishings that were different from those in her previous life.

Qin Yuan asked: "What do you mean, father?"

Cui said, "Lord Gu has a large army under his command and has just made great achievements. It would be better for him to be impartial to the princes."

"My daughter took note of it."

Qin Wan chuckled and said sarcastically, "I'm afraid Lord Gu will never have the chance to go to the battlefield again. Father is a little too nervous."

In his previous life, Lord Gu lived a simple life with Madam Zhao, that lowly maid, and what happened outside had nothing to do with him.

Cui quickly glanced at Qin Yuan's face and glared at Qin Wan, "What do you know?"
