Chapter 6 Breaking into the Marquis' Mansion
The stunned doorman finally came to his senses after hearing Li Qing's voice. He covered his face, which was hurt by Jiang Nanyuan's blow. Fearing that the mistress would blame him, he glared at Jiang Nanyuan and Lin Zhixue fiercely, putting all the blame on them. "Butler Li, this is really not my fault. It's them, these two beggars. They deliberately came to cause trouble."
He had only been in the Marquis' Mansion for a few years and didn't know them. He thought they were just people who came to cause trouble on purpose and completely ignored Jiang Nanyuan calling Jiang Nanfeng's name at the door just now.
Butler Li stood with his back to them. When he heard someone was deliberately causing trouble, he glanced at the doorman with disdain, "Useless thing! I want to see who dares to cause trouble in our mansion today?"
The concierge also looked at the two of them with pride. Humph! If you offend Butler Li, you will die.
Li Qing turned around, and when he saw Jiang Nanyuan and Lin Zhixue, his pupils suddenly dilated, "Husband... Madam."
"Butler Li, what did you say? She is the Madam?"
The concierge was startled. Wasn't today the Madam's wedding day? Why was she dressed so poorly? Was she doing this on purpose? To try something a little different?
Oh my god! What did he just do? He actually called my wife a beggar!
Thinking of this, he felt hopeless and fell to his knees, kowtowed desperately, "I'm sorry, Madam. I didn't know you were Madam. I was so mean, I deserve a beating!" After the doorman said this, he clenched his teeth, closed his eyes, and slapped himself hard on the face several times.
He didn't dare to stop until he heard Lin Zhixue and the others speak.
Jiang Nanyuan supported Lin Zhixue and walked straight into the courtyard of the Marquis' Mansion without even looking at the gatehouse. After taking only two steps, they were stopped again.
Li Qing saw that the two of them wanted to go to the front hall. Now that the master, the new lady and the guests were all there, he absolutely could not let them go over there to make trouble. Anyway, the lady was weak in character, so he could just fool them first.
He lowered his voice and said, "Madam, today is the Marquis's wedding day. I'll have someone escort you back to the courtyard first. If you have anything to say, please let us discuss it back there."
Jiang Nanyuan almost laughed out of anger when she heard this. Jiang Nanfeng was really great. He wanted them to keep things quiet just to get a new wife.
If they really did that, who knows how they would be tortured in the future.
She was just about to teach this ignorant bastard a lesson when Lin Zhixue gently pulled her hand and shook her head at her.
Jiang Nanyuan thought Lin Zhixue was going to compromise, but she didn't expect that the next moment, she walked up and slapped Li Qing in the face.
Wuhu, you’re great, mom!
"Go call Jiang Nanfeng out to me. I want to ask him, is there any reason why I shouldn't be present when you marry a concubine when your wife is here?"
Lin Zhixue's voice was not loud, but the servants around her heard it clearly. They all lowered their heads and did not dare to look up.
When had Li Qing ever been beaten in public like this? He was filled with hatred! But there was nothing he could do. After all, she was the master of the Marquis's Mansion, and he was just a servant.
Helplessly, seeing that they insisted on going to the front hall, he had to wink at the servant beside him and asked him to go and inform the Marquis first.
He personally led the two of them and walked slowly inside.
In the front hall, Jiang Nanfeng and Luo Yurou were getting married when a servant ran over and interrupted them.
"Master, Master is not well."
Being suddenly interrupted, both Jiang Nanfeng and Luo Yurou showed displeasure on their faces, but Luo Yurou was covering her with a veil, so her expression could not be seen.
The people who were watching the ceremony on the side also looked at the servant curiously. What could be more important than the Marquis' wedding?
Now that he had been interrupted, Jiang Nanfeng cast a cold gaze towards the servant.
That look seemed to be saying that if he couldn't say something important in a while, he would be killed.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
The servant trembled with fear and looked around. With so many people around, did he really have to say it in public?
Seeing the boy hesitating, Jiang Nanfeng lost his patience. "Just say what you want to say. Why are you hesitating?"
Seeing Jiang Nanfeng urging him, the servant ignored him and said loudly, "My Lord, it's the Madam and the Eldest Miss coming this way."
"What? Madam? All the ladies in the mansion are here. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll smash your mouth."
Jiang Nanfeng was furious, feeling that this servant was here just to cause trouble.
The servant felt aggrieved. He arrived at the Marquis' Mansion late, and actually didn't know Lin Zhixue and Jiang Nanyuan, but when he heard Butler Li call them Madam and Miss, he had no choice but to address them that way.
"Haha, Lord Marquis is really a forgetful person. We haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and Lord Marquis has completely forgotten about us two."
Lin Zhixue and Jiang Nanyuan walked over and heard Jiang Nanfeng's words. Lin Zhixue looked at Jiang Nanfeng. He was wearing a bright red wedding gown, holding Luo Yurou in his hand, with a frightened expression on his face.
Not only him, but also the old lady Zhao who was sitting at the top, and Liu Shuang who was sitting next to him, all opened their eyes wide and looked at the two of them as if they had seen a ghost.
"You...how did you appear here? Someone, kick them out! They are not from our mansion. Today is a big day for our mansion. Who let them in? They will be beaten with thirty sticks later." Zhao stomped the crutch in her hand hard.
Liu Shuang was even more terrified. Shouldn't they be in the village? Why were they here? Who brought them here?
Jiang Nanyuan saw several servants surrounding them and trying to drag them away. She pulled Lin Zhixue behind her and then threw out a few silver needles. Suddenly, the servants who had surrounded them could not move at all.
"Yuan'er, come sit with us."
Seeing that the servants around her were unable to move, Lin Zhixue pulled Jiang Nanyuan, ignored everyone's gaze, walked to the main seat at the top and sat down.
Seeing this, Jiang Nanfeng was so angry that veins popped up on his forehead. He suppressed his anger and said through gritted teeth, "Lin Zhixue, what on earth are you going to do?"
"Hmm? Lord Marquis, your question is very strange. I am the wife of the Marquis. Shouldn't you offer me tea when you marry a concubine? Also, how can a concubine wear bright red? Go and ask her to change."
Lin Zhixue simply ignored his anger and calmly picked up the tea bowl beside her and took a sip. Seeing Jiang Nanfeng standing there unmoving, she asked doubtfully, "Hmm? Didn't the Marquis hear clearly? Do you want me to say it again?"
Jiang Nanfeng couldn't bear it any longer, he took two steps forward, raised his hand to hit Lin Zhixue, but was grabbed by Jiang Nanyuan's arm.
"Don't hit my mother."
Jiang Nanyuan's strength was so great that Jiang Nanfeng couldn't even move. His eyes then fell on Jiang Nanyuan. Was she the daughter Jiang Nanyuan who went out with Lin Zhixue?
Well, she looks petty and can't be compared with Xiuxiu.
