In short, Qin Xuan has the protagonist's luck, while Qin Zhen has the fate of a supporting female character. Yao Feiran can probably guess the ending at a glance: Qin Xuan will eventually reach the pinnacle of life, while the supporting female character will fall into obscurity.

However, Qin Xuan has the protagonist's luck, so there is no such thing as a male lead. Those close to her will have smooth sailing.

After listening to Qin Xuan finish playing, Yao Feiran pointed out a few mistakes. The mother and daughter spent the morning in this way, teaching and learning from each other.

After a while, Xi'er whispered, "The young lady smashed all the porcelain in the house, and Qiaosu wants the steward to repair it."

"Repair everything with wood, give Qin Zhen a list, and deduct the cost of the damage from her monthly allowance."

"Yes."

Qin Zhen has been spoiled since childhood, so it's normal for her to feel resentful now. This personality needs to be changed so that she knows her parents won't always favor her. Otherwise, she'll take it for granted and end up opposing the protagonist, becoming cannon fodder.

A few months later, Qin Zhen stopped receiving her monthly allowance and began to feel inferior. The servants in the mansion were no longer as obsequious as before. Qin Zhen and Yao Feiran had several arguments, and the mother and daughter gradually drifted apart. The servants, however, were more selective in their behavior and, while they dared not do anything outrageous, they were no longer as fawning as before.

As a result, Qin Zhen slapped the manager in charge of distributing monthly allowances several times and tore up the account books. Just because she listened to Yao Feiran and didn't give her a monthly allowance, Qin Zhen beat and kicked her.

The new manager, Xiang Kui, was dismissed by Yao Feiran for withholding Qin Xuan's monthly allowance. This new manager, who was following the rules, was humiliated for no reason.

Upon learning of this, Yao Feiran immediately took a ruler and struck her palm.

"Who told you to hit someone without even asking what happened? Have you forgotten all your manners?"

Qin Zhen cried out, "I am their master! They are born of lowly birth, I can hit them as I please!"

"Fool! Confine the young lady to her quarters and punish her by making her copy the Book of Songs twenty times. She is not allowed to leave until she finishes."

Yao Feiran had never seen such a foolish person. Even if they were servants, they were still human. If they were beaten for no reason, they would harbor resentment and become unsettled. These people served the Duke's mansion closely and knew a lot about the mansion. If they were bribed, they would be the ones who suffered.

Xiangkui never expected that the madam would punish the young lady because of her, and all her grievances vanished instantly.

"Xiangkui, I'm sorry you had to go through this today."

"I'm not wronged."

"I'll bring some ointment over later, and you'll receive an extra three months' salary this month."

Xiang Kui looked deeply moved: "Thank you, Madam."

......

Meanwhile, Zhang, the old woman beside Qin Zhen, began to try to persuade her: "Miss, Madam is in charge of the Duke's mansion. Going against Madam like this will not do you any good. After all, you are mother and daughter. As long as you take the initiative to admit your mistake, she will definitely forgive you."

"Why should I take the initiative to admit my mistake? My father is coming back soon, and I'm going to tell him everything! Even if my mother has a lot of power, she wouldn't dare disobey my father."

Granny Zhang sighed. The young lady insisted on going against the madam. Even if she won, she would still be the loser.

Yao Feiran also received the conversation between Qin Zhen and Zhang Mama. Some people have become beneficiaries and are no longer willing to accept basic fairness.

Yao Feiran didn't say anything, but she did her best to fulfill her duties as a mother, hiring good teachers to teach them etiquette, needlework, and housekeeping.

To avoid conflict between the two, they were taught separately and in staggered shifts.

Even so, Qin Zhen, in order to spite Yao Feiran, did not study diligently at all. During this time, she even damaged the teacher's books, skipped classes, and tore up the account book.

These teachers resigned voluntarily, and Qin Zhen was later replaced with a new batch of teachers.

Yao Feiran and Qin Xuan have become much closer.

Two weeks later, Qin Fangtian returned in triumph. Yao Feiran wanted to welcome him back and gave the mansion a thorough cleaning. Qin Xuan was somewhat uneasy: "Mother, is Father coming back?"

"Yes, this is a great victory. The palace will probably reward those who have contributed. Don't worry, your father will like you."

Actually, he didn't like anyone, probably because he didn't like the original owner of the body. In addition, he was away fighting for many years, so he and his wife didn't have much in common. The original owner raised their two daughters, and Qin Fangtian rarely communicated with them, so their relationship was distant.

The original owner of this body often brought Qin Zhen to Qin Fangtian's presence, which made Qin Fangtian act close to Qin Zhen, giving Qin Zhen the illusion that Qin Fangtian would stand up for her.

Qin Fangtian returned in triumph, so Yao Feiran had a lot to do. Fortunately, her subordinates were all quite capable, so she only had to talk.

Chief Steward Li Zheng rushed over: "Madam, the General has returned."

Everyone waited in front of the mansion gate.

After a while, a group of people rode over on horseback. The man at the front was tall and straight like a pine tree, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. He wore black armor, had piercing eyes and a detached expression. The only regrettable thing was the scar on his face, which was left by his stepmother when she was bitten all over by a dog in an attempt to ruin him.

At that time, the doctors all said he was beyond saving, but he miraculously survived. Because of his young age, the wound healed quickly, but it left a scar forever.

Li Zhenggang smiled, but his gaze fell on the woman next to him. His expression turned slightly serious. There was a woman next to him, also riding a horse. Her long hair was tied into a neat ponytail, with a few strands sticking to her cheeks. The woman had a heroic air about her and looked sharper than the women in the inner quarters.

Yao Feiran's expression remained unchanged.

"Congratulations on your safe return, my husband."

Qin Fang stepped out of the carriage: "Thank you for your help, Madam, during this time."

"Who is this young lady?"

"She is Wang Muyuan, the daughter of my deputy general. Some time ago, my deputy general sacrificed his life, and he entrusted his daughter to me, hoping to find her a good husband."

A good husband's family?

According to the normal plot, could it be that the two are having an affair?

Is Qin Fangtian a classic scumbag?

However, Yao Feiran wouldn't do anything to slap the scumbag in the face. The two of them didn't have any feelings for each other to begin with. She managed the household while Qin Fangtian was fighting on the front lines. Their relationship was more like a business partnership. If he really wanted to marry her, then they should part ways amicably.

Wang Muyuan's expression was arrogant, and she looked at Yao Feiran with a hint of disdain.

Seeing that she was staring at her so openly, Yao Feiran rolled her eyes and mouthed something to her from a corner where no one could see.

idiot!

Wang Muyuan was taken aback by Yao Feiran's counterattack. Her expression froze for a moment before turning bright red.

"Yes, my lord, where is Miss Wang arranged?"

"You can make these decisions."

Qin Fangtian changed his clothes and returned to the main hall. Yao Feiran sat next to him. At this moment, Qin Zhen ran over and hugged Qin Fangtian's leg.

"Father, Mother bullies me. She often makes me kneel in the ancestral hall and has taken away my monthly allowance. She favors my younger sister."

Qin Fangtian said, "You must not be willful; you must listen to your mother more."

Qin Zhen was stunned. She hadn't expected that her father hadn't asked what had happened at all, and had only said that she was being willful.
