Chapter 105 Angry
Shen Wanqi was breathing in more than out. If she hadn't been reborn and had a good memory, she would have been tricked to death.
Shanhu was also terrified, "We must tell the Duke about this."
There's no point telling my father.
They stole her carrier pigeon and went to the Yun family to get the painting in her name. It had only been a few days since the incident, and the second master's injury had not yet fully healed. Their father's punishment not only did not teach them a lesson, but instead increased their hatred, and he wished to kill them.
If this matter is exposed, the maid will be blamed. The maid was clumsy and delivered the wrong thing. She might even be accused of poisoning the incense and framing them.
She had experienced how eloquent those people were in her previous life.
As her eldest sister and she were about to get married, the old lady would even say that it was inappropriate to see blood, and would not severely punish the maids who made mistakes, but would send them to the farm.
He wanted to ruin her and her elder sister's lives. Shen Wan couldn't swallow this anger.
Does she like taking the things the Yun family gives her so much?
She gave them a chance to take it!
…
The next day, the weather was fine. After breakfast, Shen Wan went to pay his respects to the old lady.
The old lady looked at Shen Wan’s complexion and smiled, “You look much better today. Did you sleep well last night?”
Shen Wanhui said, “The incense that the Yun family sent me is fresh and elegant, and it is very effective in helping me sleep. I asked the maid to bring some over, and Grandma can try it too.”
The old lady served tea and said, "How could Grandmother accept the things given to you by the Yun family? It's enough that you have this intention."
The old lady had accepted many things from the Yun family in the past. She even took the bear paws and camel humps that the Yun family sent for her and Shen Yu to eat as a favor to the second master without his permission. Now she couldn't accept them.
You know there's something wrong with the incense, so you don't appreciate her filial piety, right?
Shen Wan sat down. Normally, she would not stay for a while after paying her respects, but today she stayed a little longer. Just as she was about to leave, a maid came in and reported, "Second Miss, the Yun family sent someone to bring you a lot of things."
The maid presented the gift list.
Everyone in the room looked at the gift list in surprise.
The Yun family often sends gifts to Chen Wan, but they only use gift lists seriously on one hand. How many things have they sent that they even need to use a gift list?
No one was unhappy about receiving a gift. Shen Wan took the gift list and looked through it. Shen Wu asked, "Why is there only a gift list? Where are the gifts?"
It's actually more urgent than Chen Wan's.
Whenever things were delivered to Shou'an Hall, Yun would always give some to them in front of the old lady.
The more the Yun family gave, the more they got.
The maid replied, "The things have been sent to Qingyi Garden."
Why was it sent to Qingyi Garden? Shen Wu was a little unhappy, but it was only right that the things the Yun family gave to Chen Wan be sent to Qingyi Garden, and no one could say anything.
Shen Wan showed the gift list to Yun and then stood up.
On the way back to Qingyi Garden, Shanhu said, "The third lady and the others are behind."
Chen Wan knew it without Shanhu reminding her.
Chen Wu and the others were curious about what the Yun family had given her, and they wanted to see if they could get a piece of the pie. She knew them too well.
Chen Wan did not return to Qingyi Garden, but went directly to Mingyue Garden. Chen Wu, Shen Yao and the others followed her to Mingyue Garden.
Upon learning that the Yun family only gave gifts to Chen Wan and not Chen Yu, Chen Wu was initially incredulous and then began to instigate, "They gave a lot of things to the second sister, but the eldest sister got nothing. The Yun family is really too partial..."
Chen Wan glanced at Chen Wu and said, "Third sister, what you said is too harsh. Giving it to me but not to my eldest sister is biased. But when grandma gave hairpins to you and sixth sister a few days ago, no one else got a share. Are you saying that grandma is biased towards you and sixth sister?"
The old lady has always been partial to Shen Wu and Shen Yao, but no one usually says it.
Shen Wan brought out the old lady to shut Shen Wu up, and Shen Wu didn't dare to stir up trouble anymore.
The Yun family was rich enough to rival a country, so they wouldn't make Shen Yu unhappy over such a small thing. Everyone wanted to know what the Yun family had given to Shen Wan, and even Shen Yu didn't get a share.
The more curious they were, the more Chen Wan refused to let them have their way. They stayed in Mingyue Garden for the entire morning. Chen Wu and the others waited until they became impatient. Knowing that Chen Wan did it on purpose, they left with a belly full of envy and jealousy.
With them around, it was inconvenient for Shen Wan and Shen Yu to talk. As soon as they left, Yin Chuan stepped forward and said, "Everything on the gift list is included."
Those who were not on the gift list were not allowed to enter the Qingyi Garden.
…
After eating a lot of lunch, Shen Wan took Shen Yu to the garden for a walk. As soon as they arrived at the garden, they saw Qu Yan walking towards them angrily.
The one who was so angry almost wanted to torture Shen Wan to death.
Meeting head-on, unable to pretend not to see, Shen Wan asked, "Who made Fourth Sister-in-law so angry?"
"No one messes with me!"
Four words squeezed out from between her teeth, and Qu Yan walked away with gritted teeth.
Shen Yu looked at Shen Wan, "Why do I feel like I'm angry with you?"
This is not just a feeling, it is clearly...
Chen Wan was really curious about what she had done to make Qu Yan so angry. She and Qu Yan hadn't spoken to each other for the past two days, but the next day Chen Wan knew why Qu Yan was so angry with her.
That morning, Chen Wan stayed in the room, embroidering Chen Yu's makeup. Yin Chuan came in with tea and said, "Miss, the eldest lady of the Zhao Mansion in the Hanlin Academy was defending you in Qingfeng Pavilion, which angered the third lady of the Zuo Xiang Mansion. She pushed you and you bumped into the pillar, dislocating your arm..."
Shen Wan frowned, "Why is Miss Zhao defending me?"
Yin Chuan said, "The news of your wedding to the Prince of Jingbei has spread. Today, several ladies from wealthy families in Qingfeng Pavilion envy you. Some girls praise you for your generosity, while the third girl from the Left Prime Minister's Mansion says that you are not good at music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs, and that you are stingy and unworthy of the Prince of Jingbei.
Miss Zhao heard this and said you are not that kind of person. The fourth lady from the Duke of Wei’s residence was also there at the time and she spoke up for you, asking why the third lady from the Left Prime Minister’s residence was tarnishing your reputation, saying you were stingy…”
"The Third Lady of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion was furious and said, 'Miss,' you gave a fake colored porcelain to the Fourth Young Lady. The Fourth Young Lady took it back to her parents' home as a return gift, and Minister Qu gave it away without knowing about it. It's embarrassing..."
Why did the third young lady from the Left Prime Minister's Mansion know so much? Because the person that Minister Qu sent was none other than the Left Prime Minister.
No wonder Qu Yan's eyes were spitting fire when she saw her yesterday. She said the colored porcelain was a fake. Qu Yan didn't believe it. She didn't expect that it was actually a fake.
Chen Wan never expected that the fake porcelain she gave to Qu Yan would affect her reputation, and would also cause Miss Zhao to defend her, angering the third lady of the Zuo Xiangfu and causing her to get hurt.
Knowing that Qu Yan was with the old lady, Shen Wan put down the embroidery frame and went to Shou'an Hall.
The news of Miss Zhao's injury reached Shen Wan's ears, and naturally also reached Qu Yan. A bad premonition flashed through her heart, and then the sound of Shen Wan's footsteps came.
Walking around the screen and entering the house, Chen Wan directly attacked Qu Yan, "I was wondering why Fourth Sister-in-law knew that the colored porcelain peony vase was a fake, but still said she liked it and wanted to leave. It turns out she wanted it to ruin my reputation!"
