Qin Wan was very pleased to see Qi Jing's thorough work and said, "You've done a good job. But I'm leaving the family to you because I trust you, so you don't have to report everything."

Encouraged, Qi Jing became more and more excited, and kept talking about the plans for the next two days.

Qin Wan listened and had no objection to her arrangements or changes.

Qi Jing felt more and more confident, and her back became straighter.

Qin Wan was quite satisfied with what she saw. Qi Jing's grandmother worked for Old Lady Lu, her aunt worked in the courtyard of the Third Master, and several of her cousins ​​either worked as servants for the young master in the mansion, or worked in shops outside.

Qi Jing's parents were minor managers in the other courtyard, but her grandparents were in charge of a mansion and a farm.

If Qi Jing could stand on her own feet, with such a powerful family, she would not be unable to compete with Bai Wanyi.

Qi Jing's level is probably not as good as Bai Wanyi's, but her complicated relationship with relatives in the Marquis' Mansion is also a great help. She is waiting for Qi Jing to hand over the finances to Bai Wanyi. Even if she can't accomplish big things, she can make sure that she can't accomplish anything!

Qin Wan fell drowsy while listening to Qi Jing's words, and gradually she could no longer hear Qi Jing's voice.

Here, Lu Yan took Bai Wanyi back to the villa.

Bai Wanyi was very curious about the prince. She found out a lot of information along the way, both openly and secretly. She felt more and more that she was the chosen heroine and the prince's salvation.

The prince's life story is so good, a standard life story of a male protagonist in a novel: his biological mother died early, he had a vicious stepmother, and he had an irresponsible father. She was the only light in his heart, and she became the crown princess, the only queen in history who was favored by everyone.

Lu Yan was filled with anger, while Bai Wanyi was daydreaming happily, and the two returned to the villa.

As soon as Lu Yan entered the courtyard, he shook off Bai Wanyi's hand and said, "Hurry up and change your clothes! Someone bring tea!"

The servant quickly replied, "My Lord, there's no more tea."

"How could there not be any!" Lu Yan slammed the table. Everything was really going wrong!

The servant replied, "The expenses for the separate courtyard are allocated monthly by the Marquis' Mansion. Yesterday was the last day. Today, I should have gone to the Marquis' Mansion to collect this month's expenses to purchase things, but the Marquis' Mansion said there are doubts about the expenses for the separate courtyard and they need to investigate before giving the money."

Lu Yan frowned in confusion: "What's your question?"

Before the servant could reply, Lu Yan's personal servant came back, "Master, the accountant said they don't have the money to pay out."

"Can't pull it out?" Lu Yan was completely furious: "Why can't I pull it out!"

The servant repeated the accountant's words verbatim: "They said that the expenses for the villa were fixed, and now there is a sudden large expenditure, so we need to calculate it. Moreover, there is no money in the account of the Marquis' Mansion."

Lu Yan angrily said, "How can there be no money? Even with my note, you can't even get the money? No, you can go to the front yard to withdraw the money. Did you go to the inner house to look for Qin?"

The servant said with a bitter face, "I have also asked, and the accountant said that as early as seven years ago, the front yard and all the shops in the farm were managed by the Madam. No money can be withdrawn without the Madam's approval."

In other words, Lu Yan's rules are completely useless!

Lu Yan was furious: "Qin!"

Bai Wanyi is willing to enter the palace, so she is unwilling to let Lu Yan divorce. By then, he will not be able to give himself a legitimate status and leave on his own. Wouldn't that make him Lu Yan's white moonlight?

The Marquis's white moonlight and cinnabar mole will never be forgotten in my life, and they can become my helper in the future.

Bai Wanyi spoke up for Qin Wan: "Madam, you are following the rules. Brother Yan, you must understand the difficulties of being the head of the family."

"I don't understand shit!"

The more nice things Bai Wanyi said, the more Lu Yan felt that she was considerate, sensible, gentle and understanding. In comparison, Qin Wan was narrow-minded and intolerant of others. Every time she said a word, Lu Yan's anger grew more intense, and he couldn't suppress it no matter what. He suddenly pulled Bai Wanyi towards the Marquis' Mansion.

Qin Wan fell asleep, and Qi Jing didn't go back. She was sitting there feeling a little sleepy, when she suddenly shouted:

"Qin Wan! You have such a vicious heart!"

Qi Jing shuddered and the account book fell to the ground. Qin Wan also opened her sleepy eyes, stood up with Zhenzhen's support, and looked outside the door.

Lu Yan pulled Bai Wanyi and drove straight in.

"Qin Wan! Why did you stop funding for the villa?" Lu Yan stood in front of Qin Wan and asked sternly.

Qin Wan was amused. "The Marquis's annex has been uninhabited for years. For years, apart from the monthly salary, the money withdrawn for food, clothing, and other expenses has been around a hundred taels. This time, the Marquis wants to withdraw three thousand taels of silver for the annex and another seven thousand for other purposes. Naturally, we need to carefully consider it."

Qi Jing had just told her this. Qin Wan felt that Qi Jing was right and that she should at least ask about the whereabouts of the money.

Lu Yan sneered, "I didn't know that I need your approval to use the money!"

Qin Wan gathered her hair back and looked at Lu Yan with a half-smile. "My Lord, have you probably forgotten how much silver the mansion has? There's only so much on paper. Not to mention it's not enough for you, even if it was, what would become of this family if you took it away?"

Lu Yan immediately remembered the IOU he had written, and his expression changed again and again: "Then there's no need to cut off the expenses of the villa! Now we don't even have water to drink!"

Qi Jing wouldn't let Qin Wan take the blame for her. This was a good time to show off. She glanced at Bai Wanyi and said with a smile, "My Lord, I am the one who is in charge of the household affairs in the mansion now. It was my idea to cut off the funds for the villa."

"I grew up in the other courtyard and know the many drawbacks there. Now is the time to eliminate them..."

"Shut up!" Lu Yan didn't want to listen to her. He glared at Qin Wan angrily, "Don't think I don't know your dirty thoughts! You don't want Wan Yi to come into my house? I'm telling you, forget it! I'm going to marry Wan Yi!"

Qin Wan looked at him calmly and pointed at the tea on the corner of the table: "Entering the mansion is very simple. Just offer me a cup of tea for my concubine. I will definitely not stop you. I will even take care of her living quarters, food, clothing, housing and transportation."

"If you want to be a concubine, don't even think about it. Either be a concubine or divorce, you choose one."

"You're dreaming!" Lu Yan yelled, "Wan Yi will never be my concubine!"

"Then let's get a divorce." Qin Wan said lightly.

Lu Yan was even more unwilling: "You are fickle and want a divorce? You wish!"

Qin Wan frowned and looked at Lu Yan: "Then what do you want to do?"

What do you want to do?

Lu Yan didn't know, he only knew that he got angry when he heard the word divorce.

Bai Wanyi took Lu Yan's hand and gently helped him calm down: "Don't be angry, Lord Marquis, I don't care about these things. Madam has worked hard for the Marquis' Mansion for eight years, it's normal for her to feel resentful, please don't be angry with her."

Bai Wanyi's advice was sincere, but to Lu Yan it sounded like grievance and forbearance, and he felt even more sorry for Bai Wanyi.

Lu Yan lowered his head and said softly to Bai Wanyi, "I won't let you suffer any injustice."

He looked up at Qin Wan and said in a resounding voice, "Divorce me! You have three reasons not to divorce me, and I have seven! Please invite the elders from both families!"
