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

Chapter 455: Competition with Bian Que

Doctor Bian stood up angrily and wiped the spit off his face with his sleeve: "You old woman are really ignorant. I have been practicing medicine for many years. Even an apprentice who has just started practicing medicine would not make a mistake in reading a woman's pulse when she is pregnant, let alone me. Let me tell you, I am a descendant of Bian Que, and the medical skills have been passed down from generation to generation. Who are you insulting?"

Yanhong added in a refreshed tone: "Old Madam, you may not know that Doctor Bian is known as the Bian Que."

Doctor Bian picked up his medical box and left angrily without writing any medicine.

At this time, the weak and helpless Madam Yu hurriedly sobbed and said, "Cousin, you, you should say something for me."

Lin Ziqi then woke up as if from a dream and stopped Doctor Bian, and persuaded him to prescribe the medicine.

Lily said coldly: "Oh, so the baby in your cousin's belly is your brother-in-law's."

He took Sai Bian Que and left, saying, "No matter whose baby the cousin's is, it's gone. The baby in our young lady's belly is the most important."

Madam Yu was so hurt by these words that she burst into tears.

Mother Lin panicked and quickly stopped Lin Ziqi, signaling with her eyes, saying, "A woman who has had a miscarriage should just eat well and take care of herself. Right now, the baby in Wan'er's belly is the most important."

In any case, the child is gone, so there is no rush to get medicine.

Lin Ziqi, who had lost his composure because of feeling sorry for Madam Yu, finally came to his senses and hurriedly followed the maids to Qin Wan's side.

He also ignored how sadly Madam Yu was crying behind him.

She was stopped at the door. Lily said coldly, "Sir, please sit outside. It's a bit crowded inside. The smell is foul because there are too many people. I'm afraid the young lady will feel uncomfortable."

That’s what I said!

Do you think he is dirty?
But this is not the time to have an attack.

Lin Ziqi had no choice but to endure it.

These days, Qin Wan's attitude towards him has been changing and is no longer as easy to control as when they first got married.

When Lily first came home, she was taciturn and submissive, but today her expression suddenly changed. It was obviously because of a change in the master behind them - Qin Wan.

Lin Ziqi could only pace outside the door with his hands behind his back.

After a while, Yanhong hurried out to call the kitchen maid in to talk. Lin Ziqi took the opportunity to ask, "Is Madam okay?"

Yanhong only replied: "Not very good."

Lin Ziqi asked anxiously: "What's going on?"

Yanhong sneered, "You have to ask what good things cousin has done."

Lin Ziqi's face turned blue and red.

"How dare you speak to your master like this."

Yanhong took two steps back. Qin Wan's sharp and angry voice came from the inner room. "Speaking of your sweetheart, you treat my dowry maid like this. Do you want to help your sweetheart ride on my head in the future?"

Lin Ziqi wanted to go in and explain, but Lily stopped him again and urged Yanhong, "Go call someone."

Yanhong said: "I still need to find someone to watch over the medicine for the young lady. What if someone takes advantage of the opportunity to attack her?"

Lily disagreed: "You can hire a maid to watch over her and just don't let the Lin family get close. His cousin got her comeuppance and is lying on the bed groaning. I guess she won't bother to do anything dirty again."

These words hit Lin Ziqi's head like a bolt from the blue.

"You...you, you, explain yourself to me clearly. You can't make up stories and frame others without any reason."

Lily said impatiently: "Mr. Lin, you can't help here, you should go back to your room and rest, so as not to have a headache later. Besides, you can go back to see your cousin." Lin Ziqi blushed and scolded: "What nonsense, we are a single man and a single woman..."

Before he could finish his words, he shut his mouth under the mocking gazes of Lily and Yanhong, and could only stand aside with hatred.

The little maid received the order and came over carrying a medicine pot.

Lin Ziqi's eyelids twitched.

A sense of foreboding came over me.

"This, this is?"

Lily just sneered.

The little maid said, "Sir, this is the medicine jar I used to make medicine for you."

Yanhong said, "Hurry up and take it in for Sai Bianque to have a look."

The little maid didn't even bother to talk to Lin Ziqi and hurried in.

Lin Ziqi asked: "What do you mean?"

Lily sneered, "Sir, why don't you go ask what your cousin did? Some things should be said earlier, and there is no need to see the official. Otherwise..."

Lin Ziqi said angrily: "This is ridiculous. What did she do to deserve to be brought to justice? She can't just lie like that."

As he said this, he was about to rush in.

This time Lily didn't stop him and let him in.

The Lin family's house is very small, and the noise Lily made could be heard by Lin's mother who was guarding Madam Yu's room.

Mother Lin panicked and asked, "Xiao Lian, you didn't do anything, did you?"

Madam Yu's face was pale, with sweat dripping down her forehead. She said with all her might, "Aunt, I've been under your watch all day, what can I do?"

Mother Lin looked at her meaningfully.

Madam Yu also came to her senses.

Didn’t she and Lin Ziqi do it right under everyone’s noses?

Saying this now seems even less convincing.

Madam Yu tightly grasped Mother Lin's hand and said, "Aunt, you have also seen how domineering the daughter of the Qin family is. The maidservant she brought with her as a dowry can even step on my cousin's head. If she gets powerful in the future, won't she shit on you and my cousin's heads? You and I are on the same side."

Mother Lin hesitated for a moment, then said, "You are my niece, and you are married to my son. I have to give you an explanation, otherwise I can't go back to see my family. Don't worry, I will let Ziqi give you a legitimate status."

Madam Yu whispered, "Aunt, you are my real mother. I will serve you like my own daughter, help you, and stand by you. Ziqi said that my cousin married me for Ziqi's future, otherwise she wouldn't be so generous and docile. I heard that she was very spoiled when she was at her parents' home, and the ladies of the marquis' mansion were also trampled under her feet and bullied in the boudoir. If she gets the upper hand and finds out Ziqi's weaknesses, how can she be willing to continue to speak nicely to us?"

These words touched a sore spot for Lin's mother.

Mother Lin said, "That's right. The one who was engaged before was that one."

She pointed in the direction of the Marquis' Mansion secretly, "It is said that you should look up when you marry a daughter, and look down when you marry a daughter-in-law. I was originally worried that the door lintel of the Jijiu Mansion was too high, and we would be looked down upon if we were marrying up, but after seeing that girl, I am very satisfied. She is pretty and docile, and she has no biological mother. She is a concubine's daughter, so there is no need to worry about not being able to keep her. I didn't expect that she would be married to this girl before the wedding."

Mother Lin curled her lips.

Qin Wan looked down on them mother and son at first and only did it to save face, but she didn't expect that she would later snatch the marriage away and marry into the family and become a submissive concubine.

"Although she is a legitimate daughter, she is not very smart, otherwise my aunt would not have caught her so easily. But you can't do such a thing again. Her mother is a powerful person. Ziqi's future as an official will depend on the connections of her father-in-law and her brother-in-law."
