Qin paused in smashing the teacup.
The anger in my heart burned even more fiercely.
Looking at Shen Feng, who was wandering around like a wandering soul, he was so angry that he shouted, "Look at what you have done!"
"Most banquets held in the capital nowadays are not hosted at our residence."
"I had to get this letter from the wife of Marquis Yuchang with great difficulty."
"You didn't take the opportunity to get closer to the young masters of the various mansions that you were familiar with in the past, but instead just walked away from the occasion. Do you think our Jinyang Marquis Mansion is not embarrassing enough?"
"Do you think the current situation of our Jinyang Marquis Mansion is not bad enough?"
"You have to wait until all the nobles in the capital have excluded our Jinyang Marquisate before you, the Marquis of Jinyang, will feel relieved, right?"
Shen Feng let Qin scold him.
Until Qin had cursed enough, she stopped talking, leaned back in her chair and began to breathe heavily.
He just said, "I didn't want to go to today's wedding banquet."
"You don't want to go!" Qin sat up anxiously again.
The nanny beside her came forward and patted her on the back, which helped her to calm down a little. Otherwise, she would have almost fainted from the anger.
Take a deep breath.
Qin looked down and realized that her son had lost so much weight in just half a year. Now, looking at her son who looked like a skeleton, she didn't have the heart to say anything more harsh.
With a sigh, she said earnestly, "Feng'er, mother knows that you feel bad because of those things. I also know that people outside say harsh words. You are used to having smooth sailing in the past, so it is understandable that you can't stand those harsh words."
"But you also know that the situation of our Jinyang Marquis Mansion is not as good as before. Your father found an excuse and took that bitch to Pingzhou to hide, leaving us mother and son to struggle here."
"This mansion will eventually be handed over to you. If you don't want to go out and socialize, that's fine... Then mother will take charge of marrying a prince's wife to the mansion for you. In the future, someone will be able to take over the social affairs outside the mansion. What do you think?"
Chen Feng didn't say anything, but Qin felt that this matter had a way.
If she had not fallen seriously ill three months ago because of the incident in which Marquis Jinyang took his concubine away to Pingzhou to protect his pregnancy, and her health had not deteriorated significantly, she would not have been in such a hurry to train a "daughter-in-law" who could be of great use.
In occasions like today, she can just go by herself.
But now her brain is so bad that she feels dizzy if she walks a few more steps, and she can't stand the cold wind. In order to take better care of herself, she has to stay in the house every day.
Qin sighed again and continued, "If you don't like Qingchu from your uncle's family, your mother won't force you. There is a daughter in your aunt's family's side branch, who is only seventeen years old. Because her father was transferred to a local state, her marriage was delayed and she just returned to Beijing recently."
"That Miss Jin, from what your aunt said, is a good girl who is gentle and polite, but her father's official position is relatively low, only the sixth rank."
If it were a year ago, such a door would not even be in Qin's eyes.
But things are different now.
The reason why Miss Jin agreed to meet him was because her family had been away from the capital for a long time and they were not aware of the dirty deeds that had taken place in the Jinyang Marquis' Mansion in the past two years.
"Your aunt has already let them know. As long as you give the nod, Feng'er, I will start preparing in the next two days. Before the end of the year, our Jinyang Marquis's Mansion will be able to welcome the new bride into the family."
"Feng'er, what do you think?"
Qin asked again.
Chen Feng then woke up as if from a dream, and looked up.
"Madam of the Crown Prince?"
Chen Feng sneered, "Why drag others into this? Don't we already have a wife for the prince in our Jinyang Marquis Mansion?"
Qin's eyes widened and her mouth opened in surprise.
After staring at Shen Feng's face for a long time, he confirmed that he was not joking!
"Feng'er, are you crazy?" Qin was furious.
"Have you forgotten what that bitch surnamed Xue did to the Marquis of Jinyang Mansion and what she did to you?"
"She has already given herself to someone else, and you still brought her back to your house. Don't you think that the green hat on your head is not tight enough, and the ridicule in the capital is not enough?"
No matter how Qin persuaded him, Shen Feng still refused to listen.
"I think you've gone mad!"
Qin's eyes were filled with disappointment. "Just like your father, you were bewitched by the seductive tricks of your mistress!"
"But don't forget that the bitch surnamed Xue has now been taken into the palace by Concubine Ling. Do you think that you, the son of the Marquis of Jinyang, can have some respect in the palace? How dare you compete with Concubine Ling for her?"
Qin originally thought that this would dissuade Shen Feng from thinking so.
After all, Imperial Concubine Ling was in great favor. Not to mention a small, impoverished prince of a marquisate, even a family as powerful as Duke Liu's, which enjoyed the emperor's trust, did not dare to compete with her.
Otherwise, how could Xue Linglong be safe and sound and be taken from the mourning hall of Duke Liu's mansion to the Ling family villa?
"Even if you are the emperor, you cannot seize another person's wife. Moreover, Concubine Ling is not the emperor, but only a concubine. And the ancestors of our Jinyang Marquis Mansion had military merits. It is not reasonable for Concubine Ling to detain the wife of the prince of our Jinyang Marquis Mansion in the palace."
Shen Feng spoke calmly.
Qin covered her chest with her hands, looking as if she was about to suffocate.
In the end, he just said, "You really don't know how to live or die!"
Then his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
"lady!"
The maids around him quickly gathered around.
Pat the back if you need to, pat the back; pinch the philtrum if you need to.
Shen Feng also took two steps forward and looked at Qin with concern, "Go find a doctor quickly."
The doctor came quickly and Qin's life was no longer in danger.
After two injections, he fell asleep.
Madam Jiang, the housekeeper beside Qin, walked to the outer room and whispered to Shen Feng who was standing outside, "My Lord, there are some things I know you won't listen to, but I still have to say them."
"No matter how the Madam treats others, she is always sincere to you. The Madam is such a proud person. For you, she is willing to return to her parents' home and be humble. I wonder if you still remember the pair of jade bracelets that came with the Madam's dowry?"
"Some time ago, Madam gave the pair of bracelets to the wife of Marquis Jiande, and begged her to help you find a suitable wife for the prince." Marquis Jiande's Mansion is Qin's maiden home, and the wife of Marquis Jiande is Qin's sister-in-law, Jin.
In the past, before the incident at the Marquis of Jinyang's Mansion, Qin had always been arrogant and proud when she returned to her parents' home which had already fallen on hard times.
"My Lord, my Lady has done so much for you... You are really hurting her heart by doing this!"
"Madam Jiang, I have seen all that mother has done. But I also have my own considerations. I will take Madam Xue back home tomorrow. Please take good care of mother."
"My mother will understand my actions in the future."
