Chapter 45: The Dignified Lady and the Cold and Ascetic General 9



Unexpectedly, this scene fell into the eyes of some people.

Jiang Suizhou sneered, "Uncle, you haven't been in the capital for so many years, so you might not know that some people are good at pretending. Especially the daughters of aristocratic families. They appear dignified and virtuous in front of others, but who knows that they are actually very unruly behind the scenes."

In his eyes, Qingyin is that kind of person.

She could even bring up something like a marriage exchange. Perhaps her usual reputation for being dignified and virtuous was just spread deliberately by someone.

[Yinyin, he seems to be scolding you! ]

Qingyin: "Don't talk nonsense, he's talking nonsense, we are not dogs."

In short, people don’t understand dog whisperers.

Qingyin picked up a piece of steamed mandarin fish. Although this kind of fish has few bones, Qingyin still carefully checked it with chopsticks, and she looked like she was doing something particularly important.

Jiang Chen, on the other hand, sipped the tea in his hand slowly and leisurely.

The old lady wanted to make Jiang Suizhou shut up, but seeing that the two parties at the table looked indifferent and didn't seem to hear anything, she didn't dare to scold him rashly.

Jiang Suizhou was so angry at Qingyin's attitude. Wasn't she very talkative on her wedding day?

How come you are mute now?

He glanced at Jiang Chen and snorted in his heart, he is really good at pretending.

But if you want to dress casually, just dress casually.

His uncle dislikes these dignified ladies the most.

I remember my uncle once casually commented that it was rigid and boring.

Thinking of this, Jiang Suizhou was looking forward to seeing Qingyin's fate.

Qingyin thought Jiang Suizhou would say something else, but when she was full, she still didn't hear him speak.

She simply put down her chopsticks and stood up slowly. "Mom, I'm full. I'll take my leave first."

Although the old lady was a little dissatisfied with Qingyin's departure at this time, but thinking of what Sui Zhou had just said, she did not embarrass Qingyin, "Go, Chen'er is going back home now, you can go down and make some arrangements first."

Qingyin froze for a moment, then replied softly, "Yes, mother."

According to etiquette, Qingyin needed to say hello to Jiang Chen before leaving, but that man had completely ignored her since he sat down, and she was not the kind of person who would do that with a shameless attitude.

So, after the old lady spoke, she turned around and left quickly.

Jiang Chen held a small teacup gently in his hand. When Qingyin turned and left, a string of red agate hairpin pendants suddenly appeared in his eyes and he glanced at it.

The jade pendant hanging from the shoulder did not move at all when its owner walked, and the owner of the pendant stood with his back straight and his posture proud.

Jiang Chen retracted his gaze and it fell on Jiang Suizhou opposite him.

Although his eyes were scattered and calm, Jiang Suizhou still felt a tightness in his heart.

Although this uncle has not returned for eight years, the fear and respect for him are ingrained in his bones.

His throat tightened slightly, "Uncle."

Jiang Chen recalled the letter he had received earlier, and the sermon rising in his throat dissipated completely. He stood up and said, "Mother, I will take my leave now."

After everyone left, Jiang Suizhou threw down his chopsticks in dissatisfaction, "Grandma, this uncle is really getting colder and colder. He doesn't even look like a living person."

The old lady's heart sank, and she shouted softly: "Sui Zhou!"

Jiang Suizhou curled his lips, thinking that his grandmother was really partial.

Qingyin left the table early and didn't realize that Jiang Chen left not long after she left.

When she returned to the house, she asked Shaoyao to take the sketchbook and lie on the couch to read it.

When she saw that she was in high spirits, Yuzhu suddenly came over and whispered, "Madam, the general is back."

Qingyin didn't even raise her head and hummed softly.

Yuzhu seemed to be hesitant to speak.

The general has finally returned, and the lady should at least take the initiative.

Qingyin pretended not to notice Yuzhu's worries and just coughed softly.

Yuzhu said nervously, "Madam, please wait a moment. I will go to the kitchen and get the warm bird's nest and lotus seed soup."

Qingyin's body is both good and not so good. The bad thing is that she coughs a few times every night.

After seeing the court physician, who seemed hesitant to speak, he guessed that this was related to the drug given on the wedding night.

Although it cannot be completely eliminated, if it is well maintained, the problem will not be serious.

After Yuzhu left, Qingyin threw the sketchbook she had finished reading aside.

[Yinyin, it seems to me that Jiang Chen is not easy to conquer.]

It's really cold.

My favorability towards Yin Yin has always remained above zero.

Not even one.

Qingyin said indifferently: "Why rush? This person just came back."

[That's right, Yinyin, I'm rooting for you.]

Qingyin: “…”That’s not necessary.

After waiting for a long time and seeing Yuzhu still didn't come back, Qingyin asked Xiaoqi to take a look at what was going on.

Why is Qing Qianqian running to the kitchen to make trouble instead of just taking care of her pregnancy?

Qingyin rubbed her eyebrows. She has always been more generous to pregnant women.

Being magnanimous does not mean not caring about the past, but that there is still a long way to go.

Qingyin didn't want to intervene, but Shaoyao ran in in a panic, "Miss, no, Madam, something bad has happened. Yuzhu has been taken away by the Second Miss."

She was used to calling her "Miss" and should have changed her way of speaking.

Later, the marriage was exchanged, and the general never returned.

She just kept calling her Miss.

Now that the general is back, she has to change her ways.

Qingyin frowned, "You go... Never mind, I'll go and take a look."

I wanted to ask Shaoyao to report to the old lady and let her handle it.

But when she thought about how Jiang Suizhou doted on Qing Qianqian, the old lady probably wouldn't make a decision for a maid.

When the two of them chased after him, the man had already been taken into Yuhuaju.

Qingyin wanted to turn around and go find the old lady herself, but unexpectedly, just as she turned around, she heard Qingqianqian's voice behind her, "Sister, why are you at the door now? Why don't you come sit with me for a while?"

Qingyin paused and slowly turned around. She didn't expect that after only three months of not seeing her, Qingqianqian's belly looked as big as it was five or six months old.

But after thinking about it carefully, Qingyin quickly understood.

It seems that these two people have been hooking up together for a long time.

Qing Qianqian noticed Qingyin's gaze lingering on her belly. She rubbed her belly with some pride and said with a smile, "Look at me, I almost forgot my sister just moved out."

Qingyin was too lazy to argue with this guy. He was already so old, but he was still living here without any status. She didn't know where he got his sense of superiority from.

Qingyin: "I heard that you called my maid Yuzhu over. I have something important to discuss with her now. Please call her out."

There was a hint of viciousness in Qing Qianqian's eyes, but she said pitifully: "Sister, are you still unwilling to forgive me? I am innocent too. That day, the prince fell drunk on the street. I felt sorry for him, so I took him to the inn, but, I didn't expect that he..." As she spoke, she shed a few tears.

Qingyin thought about it seriously and said seriously: "Then why don't you report it to the police? You should make this scoundrel's crimes public!"

Qing Qianqian paused in her crying, tears hanging in the corners of her eyes, neither knowing whether to let them fall nor not.
