Chapter 667 Against One's Will
Li Yingrou didn't come, but Zhang Qiuye did.
When Qian Yulin saw Zhang Qiuye, his face was long. "Eighth Concubine, didn't I tell you that your health is the most important thing right now? You have to take good care of yourself."
Qian Yulin then raged at Chuncao, who was serving Zhang Qiuye, "You are all dead. The Eighth Concubine is so weak now, and you just let her torment you."
Chuncao fell to her knees with a plop, "Madam, we tried to persuade her but it didn't work!"
"Then what's the point of keeping you?"
Chuncao was so frightened that she could only kneel on the ground and kowtow. Zhang Qiuye was weak and leaned on a woman. After catching her breath, she looked at Qian Yulin with tears in her eyes, pitifully, "Madam, don't blame them. It was me who insisted on coming here."
As he said this, he was about to kneel down and apologize to Qian Yulin.
Now that she is in this state, if Qian Yulin asks her to kneel again, he will appear to be heartless.
What's more, there is an outsider like Zhang Juexia here, so she has to do her best to save face and dignity.
"Come here, give Eighth Concubine a seat, sit down and talk!"
Qian Yulin's men were all smart people. After listening to Qian Yulin's words, some of them brought chairs, and some went forward to help Zhang Qiuye. In short, they took good care of Zhang Qiuye.
After Zhang Qiuye sat down, Qian Yulin waved his hand and asked the kneeling people to leave. Then he said softly to Zhang Qiuye, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Zhang Qiuye looked at Zhang Juexia with an embarrassed look. Although Qian Yulin felt disdainful in his heart, he did not show it on his face. "Mrs. Ye, it's not like you don't know her. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Zhang Qiuye coughed a few times and patted his chest, "Since Madam asked me to speak, I will speak.
After Qiuye gave birth to the child, she felt sorry for the master and the mistress. Qiuye was very ashamed that she could not give birth to a little master for the master and the mistress.
Qian Yulin frowned. "You can't be blamed for this. Who can know the truth from the hidden dangers? You don't need to blame yourself. Just take good care of yourself."
Hot tears streamed down Zhang Qiuye's pale cheeks. "But Qiuye just feels so sorry for the master and the mistress."
"You're still young. It's not like you won't be able to have children in the future."
"Can?"
Qian Yulin's face was filled with impatience, "Eighth Concubine, I have guests here. If you have nothing to do, go back and take care of it!
Or if you want to see your children, you can go and see them.
If you really want to take her away and raise her yourself, I have no objection."
Zhang Qiuye was so frightened that she stood up quickly. "It's a blessing for Madam to be able to raise that child. Qiuye suffered so much when she gave birth to her. When I see her, I feel uncomfortable not only physically but also mentally. I'd rather not look at her anymore."
I? "
Qian Yulin suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "When did our family's rules become like this? Just say whatever you want to say, no need to hesitate.
I'm starting to suspect you're deliberately ruining my reputation, Eighth Concubine, am I the kind of mistress who's hard to talk to?"
Zhang Qiuye quickly shook her head and said aggrievedly, “Madam, it’s not your fault, it’s all Qiuye’s fault.
Qiuye came here just to ask, has Qiuye's house arrest been lifted? Can Qiuye go out now?
Also, ever since Qiuye gave birth, she knows how difficult childbirth is. Qiuye misses her mother so much. Could you please allow Madam to let Qiuye's family come to visit her?"
Qian Yulin rubbed his brows. "It's no big deal. Just send someone over. Madam Liu, go tell Butler Li to lift the Eighth Concubine's house arrest. And from now on, no matter who comes to see the Eighth Concubine, don't stop them."
Aunt Liu responded respectfully and walked out.
Zhang Qiuye was still standing there, and Qian Yulin asked her, "What else do you want?"
"Qiuye's sister is here. Qiuye wants to talk to her. I wonder if Madam would allow it?"
Qian Yulin looked at Zhang Juexia, and Zhang Juexia nodded.
But she was still worried. After all, Zhang Juexia was pregnant. If something really happened to their Li family, she could not bear the responsibility.
Qian Yulin sat there motionless, without raising his eyelids, "Then tell me!"
Zhang Qiuye didn't expect that Qian Yulin just sat there without moving. He couldn't utter a single word of the vicious words he had prepared.
Humph, if she hadn't heard that Zhang Juexia was coming, she wouldn't have come to Qian Yulin for such a trivial matter even though she was so weak.
What she just said were nothing but excuses. The main reason was that she wanted to have a fight with Zhang Juexia.
Also, Zhang Qiuye glanced at Zhang Juexia's belly and it seemed that she was pregnant. Humph, why did she get all the good things?
She came up with several plans in her mind, wondering how to make Zhang Juexia fall to the ground.
When she looked up, she met Qian Yulin's warning eyes. Zhang Qiuye was so scared that her whole body trembled and her back was soaked with cold sweat.
If something really happened to Zhang Juexia in the Li family, based on the behavior of the mistress and the master, they would definitely not forgive her.
Zhang Qiuye spoke with difficulty, speaking against his will, "I heard that my brother-in-law passed the imperial examination. Congratulations!"
As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you. Zhang Juexia accepted Zhang Qiuye's congratulations graciously, "Thank you!"
"So everything is fine at home?"
Zhang Juexia thought about how cheerful Tian Caihong was when they were treating her to a meal, and she nodded, "Everything is fine. Your mother is in good health and spirits!"
"That's good!"
Zhang Qiuye felt that she could no longer pretend. She clenched her fists and bowed to Qian Yulin, "Madam, I will not disturb you anymore. I am also tired."
"Then go and rest quickly!"
After Zhang Qiuye left, Qian Yulin and Zhang Juexia smiled at each other.
Li Yingrou arrived late and saw a table full of dishes. The two people hadn't started eating yet. She thought they were waiting for her and was extremely excited. "Mom, Sister Juexia, you are so nice!"
Qian Yulin pointed at the dishes on the table and said, "Hurry up, we've been waiting for you. If you don't eat now, it will get cold."
While eating, Li Yingrou talked about the things and people she encountered when running the shop. Zhang Juexia and Qian Yulin talked to her from time to time, and the meal was quickly finished.
Li Yingrou wanted to go into the city with Zhang Juexia, but was stopped by Qian Yulin. "Your sister Juexia and your sister Yingyue must have a lot of private conversations to share. You should just stop joining in the fun."
Li Yingrou thought for a moment and said, "Okay then! I'll go after Sister Juexia and Sister Yingyue finish talking. That way, I can also have a private chat with Sister Yingyue."
Zhang Juexia nodded supportively, while Qian Yulin shook his head, "You kid!"
A message came from the front saying that Ye Beixiu came to ask Zhang Juexia if he wanted to leave now?
Zhang Juexia was indeed a little tired from sitting, "Aunt, let's go back first."
Qian Yulin was worried, so he personally escorted Zhang Juexia out of his house. He only felt relieved when he saw her get into the carriage.
