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

Chapter 526 No, this won’t work

Steward Qian smiled and said, "To be honest, madam, the eldest son of the family has taken a fancy to Qiu Ju from the upper room. I didn't dare to ask for her marriage before, but now I have been promoted to the steward of the inner courtyard, and I have some foundation, but I still don't have enough financial resources."

A lot of money means a strong foundation and confidence, and Butler Qian understands this very well.

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "If that's the case, you can go find Accountant Wan and tell him to enter the money into the account. He will check the account with Hongye Cuiming."

Steward Qian said happily: "Now that we are all together, I don't feel inferior to others. Otherwise, they all have a share, but I don't have one."

Qin Yuan asked curiously, "Did Accountant Wan also become a member?"

Butler Qian nodded and said, "Of course I bought it, but it was not much, so I asked for a share that the other party wanted to transfer, and then I transferred it after signing the contract."

He wanted a lot, and was too impatient to find people one by one to sign the contract. He also wanted to curry favor with Qin Yuan, so he came to ask for favor.

Naturally, he knew that Qin Yuan would not refuse.

Qin Yuan also understood and said with a smile: "You are relieved now, but I am afraid you will have to worry about the price of pepper in the future."

"That won't happen," said Butler Qian. "I don't have any other skills, but I can judge people very accurately. Once I make up my mind, I won't change it. Madam has a long-term vision and is cautious and prudent. If she says the price of pepper will increase, then it will definitely increase."

It seems like Ma Ping and Hong Mian were taught by the same master.

Qin Yuan smiled, and Butler Qian tactfully left.

Hongye said: "Now everyone in the mansion is praising the young lady, which shows that the young lady has won the hearts of the people."

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Qin Yuan smiled and said, "It's just that I'm in power now. If you say a few flattering words in front of me, I'm happy to hear it, and it makes people happy to see me happy. If I do things more generously, more people will say good things about me. You must not take it seriously. If you take it seriously, you will fall flat on your face soon."

Hongye thought about it and smacked her lips, "Miss, what you said is so steady, as if you have experienced many storms. It's too steady. The key is that Miss not only said it, but also did it. It's too difficult. I have to say that many people in Miss's position would be arrogant."

Qin Yuan spat, "Even you are trying to flatter me. As the saying goes, a red bird becomes redder if it is close to a red bird, and a black bird becomes blacker if it is close to a black bird. You should at least control your noisy temper. I will believe you."

"Don't worry, Miss. I will change it right away."

Hongye's face was full of determination.

Qin Yuan pretended not to hear. It was the same in her previous life. She always set goals but never made them permanent.

After a while of busy work, it was almost time for lunch, and Qiu Ju came to invite them personally, "The old lady is entertaining guests in the upper room, please go and join her."

Qin Yuan was surprised: "What kind of guest came to the upper room? How come I don't know?"

Qiu Ju chuckled and said, "Madam, you will know when you go there. They are all acquaintances."

Qin Yuan asked in surprise: "Why can't I tell you yet?"

Qiu Ju just smiled.

Qin Yuan knew it was the old lady's order, so she stopped asking and followed her all the way to the upper room. While still on the corridor bridge, she heard a group of people shouting and laughing inside, and the roof was about to be blown off.

Among them, Gu Baozhu's voice was the loudest.

Qin Yuan asked curiously: "What is this for?"

Qiu Ju just smiled and said to the maid in the corridor, "Go in and tell them that the Madam is here."

The little maid ran in quickly, and soon a group of people came out to greet Qin Yuan.

Gu Baozhu was at the front, followed by Qin Heng, Xiaodong, Kang Ge'er and Fu Ge'er, Lan Jie'er was staggering behind, and Qin Siyuan was at the back.

Everyone stood in the corridor and talked. "Oh my God, why are you here? When did you come? I didn't even know about it."

Qin Yuan was full of surprise.

Qin Heng has arrived, but now Qin Siyuan is here, so he should at least send her a message.

Qiu Ju smiled and said, "Didn't the old lady say that she hadn't seen the two young masters for a long time, so she kept them in the upper room to eat together, and specifically asked them to wait until lunch to invite the lady, to give her a surprise."

Qin Yuan covered half of her face with a round fan and chuckled, "It's really a surprise. How come my cousin is here too?"

Qin Siyuan should have been busy with his homework, but he came with Qin Heng. It was also very strange that Master Gu Liu was not there to accompany him.

Qin Siyuan hasn't spoken yet.

Qin Heng said: "The Xu family was looking for trouble with my cousin, and Sister Baozhu rescued my cousin and helped him out. She also went to the Imperial College to pick me up, and then we came to the mansion to talk."

Qin Yuan was surprised and asked, "Why did Baozhu go to pick you up? Shouldn't Cuiming have sent someone to pick you up? Why did the Xu family cause trouble for my cousin?"

Gu Baozhu laughed and said, "This is not someone Cuiming sent out. I just happened to run into him. Didn't Third Sister-in-law ask me to teach Heng Ge'er how to ride a horse? So I simply took the job and went to the Imperial College to see what was going on. I didn't expect to run into him. Let's go in and talk. It's silly to stand here."

Qin Yuan found it a little funny.

Qin Heng said: "Sister Baozhu, you are only a little over a year older than me. I call you Sister Baozhu, but you shouldn't call me Brother Heng."

Gu Baozhu said: "I call them Kang Ge'er and Fu Ge'er, it's the same, they have no objection."

Qin Heng blushed and argued for himself: "They are your nephews. Besides, they are much younger than you. I am different."

Gu Baozhu clicked her tongue twice.

Madam Gu's voice came from inside: "Baozhu, don't be disrespectful."

Gu Baozhu then said, "Okay, otherwise people will think I am taking advantage of my third sister-in-law. From now on, I will call you Brother Heng."

Qin Siyuan and Qin Yuan just found it funny.

After the two men finished discussing the titles, the group of people entered the living room again.

Old Madam Gu was lying on the couch, and sitting next to her were Mrs. Dai and two other elderly women, all of whom were members of the Gu family.

When they saw Qin Yuan and others coming in, they all smiled, took Qin Yuan's hand and asked about her life.

Madam Gu said, "You have seen that all the Qin family members are good-looking. The three children of the Qin family standing together are gentle and handsome, which makes people happy to look at them."

The two women flattered him, "It's OK that he's good-looking. The people in our mansion are not bad-looking either. For example, Lord Gu was a famous young man in Beijing when he was young, and Lord Six is ​​also a good-looking man. He looks smart and handsome. But the Qin family has talent in their belly, which is rare."

After hearing this, Qin Heng quietly shrank behind Qin Siyuan.

One of the older ones asked Qin Yuan, "I just asked Mr. Qin, and he said he is still unmarried. Do you know what kind of marriage your cousin's family wants to arrange for him?"

The other one said, "Why, do you still want to be the first to get the moon by being close to the water tower, and take him home to be the son-in-law?"

"You old man, who doesn't have some daughters waiting to get married? If they are destined to become husband and wife, isn't that a good thing?"

Madam Gu was about to speak.

Gu Baozhu on the side immediately waved her hands and said, "No, no, this won't work."
