"Tomorrow..." Qi Qin'er thought that she had promised her mother to go back to the Qi family tomorrow. However, if her sister-in-law came back tomorrow, it would not be justified for her, the eldest sister-in-law, not to be at home.
"Does my sister-in-law have any plans?" Tai Jingwan was surprised. Could it be that my sister-in-law really wanted to go back to her parents' home tomorrow?
"No, no! I will be back home tomorrow. Dad, mom, brothers and sisters-in-law will be waiting for you here." Qi Qin'er thought to herself that her parents' home was in the capital anyway, so she would go back with her husband the day after tomorrow.
"Yeah." Tai Jingwan felt relieved when she heard that. She thought that as long as her brother and sister-in-law didn't go back to her parents' home tomorrow, the tragedy would not happen.
Yuehua Pavilion
As soon as Jiang Jinyue stepped into the house, she saw Gu Huaizhi sitting at the top with a gloomy face. Only then did she realize that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the courtyard.
"Why is the Marquis here?" Jiang Jinyue quickly put on a fake smile and asked.
"Jiang, where did you go last night?" Gu Huaizhi looked at Jiang Jinyue with a dark face and asked in a cold voice.
"Oh, I wanted to look for the Marquis last night, but the mansion is too big, and I got lost while walking. I was tired and it was dark, so I went into a room to rest. I had my wedding yesterday, and I was tired after a whole day, so I accidentally fell asleep. By the way, Marquis, where did you go last night? I looked for you for a long time." Jiang Jinyue looked at Gu Huaizhi with a wronged look on her face and said.
Gu Huaizhi, who was originally very angry, suddenly felt guilty after hearing Jiang Jinyue's words.
...
...
He didn't want everyone to know about his relationship with Tang Wan'er. After all, he still wanted Jiang Jinyue to give him a dowry to pave the way for him.
"I looked for you all night last night. Now that you're back, change your clothes and go serve tea to your mother." Gu Huaizhi didn't even ask Jiang Jinyue which house in the yard she fell asleep in last night.
Looking at Gu Huaizhi who was feeling guilty, Jiang Jinyue cursed him in her heart and called him a scumbag.
However, Jiang Jinyue did not dare to delay and quickly called her two maids to go into the house to change clothes.
"Miss, where did you go last night?" After entering the inner room, Ruyi asked Jiang Jinyue in a low voice.
Obviously, she didn't believe a word of what Jiang Jinyue had just said.
"Hehe, I'm going to a good place." Jiang Jinyue felt inexplicably good when she thought about the fact that she slept with Tai Jingwan last night.
"Miss, the Marquis did not come last night. He came early in the morning." Ruyi pouted and complained to Jiang Jinyue. She was also very dissatisfied with Gu Huaizhi in her heart.
"I know!" Jiang Jinyue was not surprised at all. Gu Huaizhi came early in the morning. She also knew that Gu Huaizhi stayed in Tang Wan'er's courtyard last night.
Moreover, she knew that today, Tang Wan'er would be diagnosed with being pregnant.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jinyue felt sorry for Tai Jingwan again.
As for yourself?
Jiang Jinyue knew very well that she married into the Gu family only because her father wanted her to rely on him to get close to the powerful. After all, among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, the Jiang family was a merchant family. Even now, they were imperial merchants. Even now, with a fortune of millions, the Jiang family was still a merchant family of the lowest class and they still wanted to seek protection.
However, Jiang Jinyue did not think that Gu Huaizhi was someone who could protect the Jiang family's rich and powerful. Even the Gu family's assets alone were probably less than a quarter of her dowry. Such a poor and powerful person would probably only think about how to suck the Jiang family's blood, right?
Jiang Jinyue knew it very well, and this was probably the reason why Gu Huaizhi was so eager to marry her as his co-wife.
"Miss, don't believe the sweet words of that son-in-law. I think he is here for your dowry." Jixiang, who had been guarding the storehouse all night, said indignantly.
"Okay, I got it. Go get the gifts I prepared earlier and give them to those people later." The people Jiang Jinyue was talking about were Gu Huaizhi's brothers and sisters. Jiang Jinyue had prepared two gifts for the Gu family before.
"Miss, which one do you want?" Jixiang asked excitedly. After all, the young lady prepared one expensive one and one ordinary one.
"Ordinary ones will do. Send the expensive ones to Yingxue Pavilion." Jiang Jinyue thought, others didn't need too good things, but Tai Jingwan must be given the best.
After all, Tai Jingwan's thighs were much thicker than Gu Huaizhi's. Instead of trying to curry favor with Gu Huaizhi, she might as well hug Tai Jingwan's thighs tightly. Thinking of this, Jiang Jinyue thought about the accident that would happen to Tai's brother and sister-in-law tomorrow.
Jiang Jinyue felt that she must tell Tai Jingwan about this later. Nothing must happen to such a beautiful lady like Tai's eldest sister-in-law.
"Miss, why did you send such a good thing to that person?" Jixiang felt that there was not a single good person in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion.
The young lady actually wanted to praise the wife of her son-in-law. Although her young lady was an equal to that lady's wife, Jixiang felt that her young lady was at a disadvantage.
Now, the young lady still has to eagerly give gifts to that man.
"What do you know? Are you the lady, or am I the lady?" Jiang Jinyue would not explain to Jixiang that she came here just for Tai Jingwan.
Just after Tai Jingwan sent Qi Qin'er away, she saw a servant inviting her to go to the old lady's Tingsongju.
"Is there anything wrong, old lady?" Tai Jingwan asked with some confusion.
"Madam, the old lady said that the new lady will serve tea today, and asked you not to forget to prepare a return gift for the new lady." The servant replied quickly.
"I see." Tai Jingwan thought, didn't I offer tea and give gifts yesterday?
Why do we have to offer tea today?
However, Tai Jingwan wisely didn't say much about this matter.
"Miss, what should we prepare?" Pearl hurried forward and asked.
Tai Jingwan thought that since she had given the Goddess of Childbirth yesterday, she obviously couldn't give it again today.
"Go and get my gold and jade bracelet." Tai Jingwan said.
Dream House
Tang Wan'er bit her red lips, and there was no other expression in her eyes except jealousy.
"When did the Marquis leave?" Tang Wan'er asked coldly.
"Miss, the master left at the end of the Mao hour." Qingye said in a low voice.
"Do you know where the Marquis has gone?" Although Tang Wan'er guessed that Gu Huaizhi might have gone to Yuehua Pavilion, she still felt very unhappy.
"Miss, Master, he went to Yuehua Pavilion early in the morning. Now, he should be taking the new wife to Tingsongju, the old lady's home, to offer tea to her." Qingye said quickly.
"Bitch! Who told you to mention her! What new lady? She's just a merchant girl who is not presentable enough! Is she worthy of being a lady?" Tang Wan'er cursed angrily.
Qingye only dared to kneel in front of Tang Wan'er and remained silent.
She thought that everything would be fine once the young lady vented her anger.
After scolding for a long time, Tang Wan'er still felt that it was not enough. Thinking about how much her aunt loved her, if she made her lose face in front of her aunt, she would probably have no status in the mansion in the future.
"Let's pack up and go to Tingsongju to pay our respects to our aunt," said Tang Wan'er.
