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

Chapter 394 Exposed
Mother Lin muttered again in a low voice, just loud enough for everyone sitting at the table to hear.

"You are such a spoiled young lady from a high-ranking official's family. You don't even feel sorry for your husband who is coughing like this. If it were me, you would still have a lot to learn from Xiaolian."

Madam Yu did not say anything, but the corners of her eyes and mouth were filled with sarcasm and pride that Qin Wan could see at a glance.

Lin Ziqi naturally didn't say anything.

Qin Wan was holding back her anger, so she put down her bowl and chopsticks and said, "Everyone, enjoy your meal."

Get up and leave.

Seeing this, Lin's mother raised her eyebrows. Just as she was about to scold Qin Wan for being rude, she heard her loudly order the little maid, "Go, go to the Jijiu Mansion to find my mother, and tell her that I went to the Marquis' Mansion to help out these few days and couldn't eat because of the incense. Ask if there is any pickled goose left at home. If there is, bring back a bowl. If there is fermented glutinous rice, that would be even better. Bring it back so that I can cook it for a midnight snack. This meal today... I spent a penny and there is not a single dish I like."

When it came to the topic of money, Lin's mother felt a little guilty. She didn't dare to ask Qin Wan directly, so she complained to her son.

"Look at your wife. She's been married for a long time, but she's still like this... I can't change her mind. I told her not to go out, but after just a few days, she's become wild again and refuses to be disciplined."

Lin Ziqi said without even raising his head: "Mother, please don't worry about Wan'er's visits to her parents' home and the Marquis' Mansion. No matter how good Xiaolian is in your heart, no one will recognize her when she goes there. I, Qin Wan, married her. No matter how good the others are, they are not the daughter of the chief priest nor the sister-in-law of the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion."

This is stated bluntly.

Madam Yu and Mother Lin were both filled with hatred and speechless.

Qin Wan felt relieved only after returning to her bedroom. She lay down heavily on the bed and looked at the ceiling.

"I don't have to look at that old hag and that vixen, and I feel better."

Yanhong coaxed, "Just bear with it for your uncle's sake. Good things will come next year when he gets admitted to high school."

Qin Wan frowned and sighed, "How else can I think about it?"

After a pause, he whispered, "If she can get by, so can I."

Yanhong looked at Qin Wan in surprise, not understanding who she was referring to.
Not long after, Lin Ziqi came over, and before Yanhong could leave, he asked anxiously, "Is what Xiaolian said true?"

Qin Wan sat up and said unhappily, "Why are you asking me if you don't ask her?"

"You've been helping out in the Marquis' Mansion these days, haven't you heard any rumors?"

Qin Wan thought for a moment and said, "The seventh young lady of the Marquis's Mansion is a hothead. I know that she and Madam Chang quarreled. They quarreled so fiercely that I hid away and stood aside. How could I know all that? It was also because my sister was gentle and coaxed the seventh young lady back. Otherwise, it would have been easy for her to be beaten with a big stick. As for what Madam Chang said, how would I know if it was true?"

At the same time, I was thinking to myself, could it be that Lord Gu is really incapable?
No wonder he didn’t consummate his marriage with me in his previous life.

But if it really doesn't work, is it true that Zhao was the only favorite in her previous life?

Qin Wan couldn't explain what she was thinking. Did she hope that Lord Gu would be able to do it or not?
But she had to defend Lord Gu outwardly. Moreover, the gossip was spread by Madam Yu, and Lin's mother gave her a hard time, so she had to refute it.

After hearing all this, Lin Ziqi was annoyed and said, "I just asked a question, why did you say so much? You are in a bad mood today. When your mother grumbled, you also said a lot to squeeze me. Are you angry?" Qin Wan snorted, stood up and put her hands on her hips and said, "Your cousin runs around everywhere. When the Marquis' Mansion is too busy, she goes to places where there are many men. She heard some rumors and told you, and you come to find fault with me. If you trust her so much, you can just let her walk around in the future. What else do you need me for?"

Lin Ziqi had no choice but to coax her patiently.

"She is nothing compared to you. She is just a country girl with little knowledge. It's just that my mother cares about her family. She thinks that I will have a family in the capital and will be able to take the imperial examination next year. If I pass the examination by chance, I can find a good marriage for her and help each other. Why would I let her go out for you?"

These words were spoken in a serious manner, and completely separated the two of them.

If I hadn't seen these two people having a secret meeting, how could I not believe it?

It’s not that I’m stupid, it’s just that others are too good at pretending.

Qin Wan sneered in her heart, but said on the surface: "If it is difficult to find a husband for her, what's the difficulty? If you ask me, it is more appropriate to arrange a marriage for her as soon as possible. There are so many scholars in the Imperial College. Maybe they will be willing to betroth her for my father's sake. This is much better than her wandering around and causing trouble, don't you think? I take her around everywhere, and I am worried that she will cause trouble one day and ruin my reputation."

Hearing this, Lin Ziqi's face changed several times, and then he said, "Then you should keep an eye on her. When you take her out in the future, keep an eye on her to prevent her from doing anything shameful and ruining the reputation of the Lin family."

In the end, he still couldn't bear to stop her from taking Madam Yu with her.

Qin Wan nodded in agreement.

Lin Ziqi then coughed and said softly, "When you talk to your sister, tell her your true feelings. After all, we are together and have ruined her marriage. If the Marquis really has something wrong, how can you and I feel at ease?"

Although these words sounded very reasonable, Qin Wan became even more unconvinced.

If he was really uneasy, he wouldn't have gotten involved with her. He dodged Qin Yuan at that time, but didn't care about her life or death. Now he's talking about whether he feels at ease or not.

Qin Wan sneered, "Of course I will tell her. Tell me the truth. Are you still thinking about her? I tell you, whether the Marquis is good or not is not your turn to care. She married into the Marquis's mansion. Her mother-in-law, brother-in-law, and sister-in-law are all on her side. All the affairs inside and outside the Marquis's mansion are handed over to her. I don't know how much more comfortable her life is than mine. Isn't it enough that I have to live a life of being tortured by your mother and cousin? It must be fair that I have no man to use?"

Shocked by these words, Lin Ziqi pointed his finger at her after a while, and opened and closed his mouth several times before he squeezed out a trembling word.

"Bullshit, you, you are talking nonsense..."

Qin Wan stood up and was about to leave, then turned around and said coldly, "I'd better be talking nonsense. You can only accept it if you can't let her go now. I gave up Dingbei Marquis to marry you, and my father was unhappy. Fortunately, Qin Yuan was chosen by the Marquis's mansion, so I didn't lose the Marquis's son-in-law. If you marry his legitimate daughter and still miss his other daughter who married into the Marquis's mansion, you will see if he is willing to pay attention to you."

After saying this, he lifted the curtain and went out, just in time to run into Madam Yu hiding behind the door and eavesdropping.

Seeing her come out, Madam Yu's face flushed and she stammered, "Cousin, I was just about to talk to you, but my cousin went in again, so I'll wait here."

"Ah!"

Qin Wan sneered and walked away.

Inside the house, Lin Ziqi gritted his teeth in anger. Suddenly, he had a headache and could not help but fall to the ground with his head in his hands. He curled up into a ball and let out a faint groan.

Madam Yu, who was standing outside in a daze, heard the noise and rushed into Qin Wan's room without caring about anything else.
