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

Chapter 308 Banquet (I)

Qian Da's wife said nothing, but just frowned and looked at Qian Da, waiting for him to speak.

Finally, Qian Da couldn't stand Bai Que's pleading any longer and said, "Then let's go to the front yard again. However, the Marquis must be busy with something. I hope you won't lose your manners and think more about your parents' hard work."

Bai Que lowered her pink neck and said in a hoarse voice, "I know."

Unfortunately, the three of them were stopped outside the study door. The doorman smiled and said, "Uncle, aunt, Sister Bai Que, it's unfortunate today that the Marquis is busy and cannot be disturbed. If there is anything important, please let me tell the Marquis."

Everyone already knew that Bai Que was engaged.

The servant could naturally see that they were here to pay their respects and express their gratitude.

But he also knew that Bai Que was driven out of the mansion by the Marquis, so he didn't say it to avoid embarrassment.

Qian Da secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said in a gentle voice, "In that case, you can say later that your aunt and I brought Bai Que to express our gratitude."

After saying that, he turned to Bai Que and said, "Daughter, since the Marquis is not able to help you, you can kowtow a few times outside before leaving. This is also a way of expressing your gratitude."

The lost Bai Que kowtowed three times to the door slowly with tears in her eyes.

The servant said, "I will pass on the message as soon as the Marquis is free."

Qian Dadao: "Okay, your uncle and aunt are both working in the mansion, so if you have anything to say, you can't just go to the Marquis and talk to him directly. But your sister Bai Que has been engaged and has been indebted, so she won't have the chance to come to the mansion in the future, so I thought of coming to pay my respects and thank you, which is also a way to fulfill the relationship between master and servant."

The servant nodded and said, "Uncle, on the day of Sister Bai Que's wedding, if I am not on duty, I will go to the wedding banquet."

Bai Que followed his parents out of the front yard unhappily. Just as he was about to turn to the small road and leave the house through the corner gate, he ran into Gu Shiliu who was rushing towards them.

"Sixteen, what are you busy with?"

When Qian Da saw him, he stopped him and started talking.

Gu Shiliu had already seen the appearance of the three people and guessed why they came. He did not ask much and just smiled and said, "Madam just called me over. The Marquis said that he wanted to re-count the veterans because of Brother Qi's matter. Madam asked how it was going."

"Oh?"

Qian Da stopped, looking surprised, and asked, "Madam, do you still care about these things?"

Gu Shiliu cleared his throat and said, "Uncle knows that the Marquis loves Madam and has entrusted all the affairs of the mansion to Madam."

Upon hearing this, Bai Que's face turned pale and his eyes turned red.

Qian Da's wife praised: "Madam settled Brother Qi, and later she said she would treat the eyes of Brother Qi's blind mother. We all said that the Marquis's Mansion is kind and truly values ​​people like us."

Gu Shiliu smiled and said, "That's right. The Marquis said that he had neglected the veterans and their families who followed him to the battlefield, and he wanted to re-count them. I've been busy lately and haven't been able to take care of it. Madam remembered it for some reason today and just called me over to ask some questions."

Seeing Gu Shiliu's anxious look, the Qian couple didn't want to talk much and said goodbye quickly.

Qian Da said as he walked, "From what Gu Shiliu said, the Marquis is going to give everyone some money and food? It's fine for people like us, we don't need anything, just settle down like Brother Qi, who wouldn't be willing to work for the Marquis? I have to say that Madam is kind-hearted and virtuous. A virtuous wife will bring fewer troubles. Everyone can't help but praise Madam."

Qian's wife glanced at Bai Que, who was keeping his head down and not saying anything.

"Well, nowadays, there are so many people praising Madam. The old Madam also speaks highly of her, and the Marquis loves her very much. Alas, that vicious woman surnamed Zhao should not take a piss and reflect on herself. How can she compare with Madam? She is not content with her good life, but is always greedy for more. She almost killed our Baique." Qian Da quickly waved his hand and said, "It's the past. Why mention it? It's also our daughter's fault that she is too active and was tempted by a few words from someone with ulterior motives. If I meet that bitch surnamed Zhao, I will definitely not let her have an easy life. What a bastard, she almost made my daughter a sinner."

Qian Da shouted to stop Qian Da's wife from speaking any further, but he himself could not help but started cursing.

Bai Que raised his head, looked back in the direction of the study with resentment, sighed, turned back and whispered: "Dad and Mom, please don't say anything. If outsiders hear it, it will be a topic of gossip. I already know I was wrong, and I will live a peaceful life in the future."

Upon learning that Zhao had brought two maids to poison, Bai Que was terrified.

She almost became Zhao's accomplice.

Zhao could have just left, but she was a maiden in the mansion and a servant of the marquis's residence, and the whole family depended on the mansion for their livelihood.

Moreover, Zhao was so vicious that even if she helped Zhao to succeed, she would probably not end up well.

Qian Da also sighed and said earnestly, "Madam is as beautiful as a fairy. The Marquis loves her wholeheartedly and I'm afraid he doesn't care about others. Even if he wants to take a concubine in the future, you won't have a chance. After all, you just don't have that luck. You should give up your obsession and live a good life with the boy from the Zhao family."

"Yes," Bai Que agreed, "Zi He is right. I listened to Zhao's lies and pushed her out. I was destined to become a pawn in Zhao's hands. Fortunately, I withdrew early, otherwise I would have done something stupid and implicated my parents. I came here today just to see the Marquis. I will never let my parents worry again in the future."

Lord Gu was the bright moon in her heart since she was young, but the bright moon had never shone on her.

Let's just leave it at that.

Otherwise, what else can we do?

The matter of the white sparrow was like a gentle breeze blowing over the water in a pond, it died down without even causing a ripple.

Neither Qin Yuan nor Lord Gu took it to heart.

On the day of the banquet, Qin Yuan got up early and put on her makeup in front of the mirror.

In the mirror, Gu Jinghui was leaning against the rail of the Luohan bed, his long, jet-black hair hanging down in disarray, the collar of his white shirt slightly open, his eyes half-open and half-closed, looking so charming and freehand that Mo Zhu and other maids serving in the room blushed and dared not look at him directly.

But this person was completely unaware and just kept muttering, "Madam, why does it take so long to put on your makeup?"

Qin Yuan chased him away: "Why didn't you go to practice martial arts this morning, Lord?"

Gu Jinghui said listlessly, “When I think about having to socialize with those stinky guys all day, I don’t want to move.”

Qin Yuan smiled, but before she could say anything, Cui Ming came in with a tray filled with flowers of various colors. She said, "Madam, this is something the gardener sent specially for hairpins. He spent a long time picking out red cotton and red leaves, but I don't know if I can use them."

Gu Jinghui glanced over and said, "Madam has used up all the hairpins, and the remaining hairpins are on my hat."

Qin Yuan couldn't turn her head around, so she asked in the mirror, "Why did you suddenly think of wearing flowers in your hair?"

Gu Jinghui snorted and said, “The Emperor asked me to preside over the imperial inspection, so I should learn to deal with the scholars. Don’t they all like to wear Jinxian crowns and write poems with flowers in their hair? I have to dress up a bit so as not to embarrass my father-in-law.”

Qin Yuan: “…”

After enduring for a while, Fang said, "Your Majesty is handsome and graceful, few can match you. You are dressed like this, aren't you worried that the guests will feel ashamed of themselves?"
