Chapter 1208: Being Smart
Zheng's claim of illness was not for nothing. She had to spend money to buy various supplements such as ginseng, bird's nest, fish maw, donkey-hide gelatin, etc. As for the price, of course, she could just quote whatever she wanted.
In the matter of Zhao Zhai's marriage, Zheng made more than 35,000 taels of silver from the public account.
Zheng felt quite satisfied as she counted the banknotes. She wouldn't mind if this happened more often!
Zheng pretended to be sick and taught her son comfortably, while Qin was so proud that she wanted to fly when she walked.
She is a concubine, but she can personally choose her daughter-in-law and decide her son's marriage. What an honorable and respectable thing it is!
However, if this is the case, which mistress of a truly prestigious and respectable family would be willing to arrange a marriage for her children with a concubine?
That would make people laugh to death!
Even if there was a concubine's daughter waiting to be married in the family, Zhao Zhai would not be considered.
As for the legitimate daughter? What are you thinking!
Even if he is the eldest son of a concubine, it is not acceptable!
Unless he is the eldest son of a concubine with merit, or there is no legitimate son in the family.
Qin was so arrogant that she even wanted to marry the daughter of a family that was equally matched with the Zhao family. As expected, she encountered repeated setbacks and felt angry, hateful and jealous.
Otherwise, why do they say that people are greedy and never give up? She subconsciously thought, it would be great if she was the legitimate wife. If she was the legitimate wife, who would dare to look down on her!
Faced with the facts, Qin had to lower his stance.
He couldn't even think of marrying a daughter of equal status to the Zhao family, so he could only marry someone lower in status.
Anyway, she must marry the legitimate daughter.
In the end, they became a family.
The family also owned several hundred acres of fertile land and several small shops.
When Zheng heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
A girl from such a family can only be paired with the sons of the Zhao family's stewards, right?
Qin is really not picky!
It really can’t be considered picky!
Zhao Mu didn't know about this marriage at first until the engagement letter was sent.
After checking the details of his in-laws, Zhao Mu was almost furious and scolded Qin harshly.
Zhao Mu was really pissed off by Qin this time. He had never seen such an ignorant and stupid woman. However, the engagement letter had already been exchanged. It was not like a marriage that had just been exchanged and the wedding date had been set by Qin in a hurry for three months would be canceled just like that.
This matter is not reasonable.
Zhao Mu did many things that were unreasonable, but he would never do them in public.
Because of this incident, Zhao Mu was so upset that he didn't talk to Qin or go to Qin's yard for almost half a month.
But Qin was very anxious.
Qin knew better than anyone that her only supporter was Zhao Mu. She was not like Zheng, who had a huge business. If Zhao Mu didn't want her, she would be finished!
Qin tried her best to find opportunities to curry favor, surrender and apologize, using all kinds of tricks, perseverance and humility to get to the bottom of the matter.
Zheng watched coldly and saw quite a big show.
She felt even more disdainful in her heart. It seemed that Zhao Mu's attitude towards Qin was just like that!
She was really blind at the time. How could she fall in love with such a man?
After leaving Qin alone for half a month and letting her learn her lesson, Zhao Mu finally forgave her.
He also saw clearly that when it came to a virtuous wife, there was only Zheng, and the only one who could really get things done was Zheng.
Qin is simply not that kind of person!
As a concubine, she just needs to serve herself well and say sweet and gentle words to please herself and make herself happy. She should not be expected to do the serious work.
