Chapter 111 Xiao Yuan, this rotten guy
people.
There will always be high and low.
Even the closest relatives will envy each other and compare with each other intentionally or unintentionally.
What's more, in a place like the Qi Mansion where affection has never been a priority, this comparison between the noble and the humble is particularly prominent.
but.
This Qi was a fool. The old lady of the Qi family treated her like this, but in her previous life, she even risked the future of the Lin family to save the Qi family when it was about to decline.
She also said that the Qi family must have been plotted against, and that Old Madam Qi was her grandmother after all, and had been very kind to her, so how could she be so heartless and leave it alone?
Lin Zhi refused, but she made a big fuss and even attacked him without caring about Lin Zhi's dignity, leaving bloody marks on his face and making him ashamed to go to court for several days.
Of course, the affairs of the Lin Mansion had nothing to do with her, a wife of the Xiao family who had been married off long ago. However, Xiao Yuan actually said that he would plead for Qi, saying that he would help her because she was her biological mother.
Xiao Yuan's actions surprised and shocked her.
How could she help at that time? Moreover, her aunt's death was unclear, and she felt that it was Qi who was responsible for her aunt's death. Why would she help a murderer?
But Xiao Yuan, this bastard, actually said that she was vicious?
She said, "What is Madam's concern for Auntie's death? How can you make such irresponsible remarks without any evidence?"
He said, "Madam was once your biological mother. How could you watch her die like this?"
Said, "Lin Qingjun, I never thought you were so vicious that you even ignored your own mother?"
He also said, "Besides, even if it's not for the Qi family, you should also be thinking about your elder sister. When you were in the Lin Mansion, she helped you a lot. How can you ignore the old relationship?"
This last sentence left her speechless.
In the end, she had no choice but to nod in agreement because of this, but she also said that from then on, she had repaid her elder sister's favor of protecting her, and in the future, she should not use this to ask her to do anything for Qi.
So she took out the five thousand taels she had earned with great difficulty from the warehouse and gave it to him, asking him to help the Qi family smooth things over.
Just thinking back now.
Oh.
She was really stupid back then.
How could she, a mere wife of the Xiao family, compare to the power and influence of the Crown Prince's Consort of the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion?
Why didn't Xiao Yuan go and beg Lin Yingxue, but instead asked her to take out all the assets of the Xiao family?
Doesn't he know how difficult their lives will be after he takes out these five thousand taels?
No.
He knew it, but he just didn't want to make his beloved Lin Yingxue worry, and didn't want her to spend a penny, so he had no choice but to start with her.
Think of this.
Lin Qingjun's hatred for Xiao Yuan and Lin Yingxue increased even more.
She didn't think Lin Yingxue was innocent either. If it weren't for her guidance, how could Xiao Yuan be so smart as to get money from her?
Moreover, there were five thousand taels of silver in her house, and Lin Yingxue knew it clearly because she had looked through her account book.
Haha, Xiao Yuan doesn’t want more or less, just a full five thousand taels. Who would believe that this is a coincidence?
Therefore, this time she also wanted to let Qi feel the sadness and despair of being treated differently by relatives.
As expected, Qi's face turned pale, and she held the handkerchief tightly in her hand without saying a word.
Aunt Qi also stood aside and began to think deeply.
But this is just the beginning, she continued.
"Madam, your elder sister went with you today. Didn't she discover anything? Didn't she tell you about the injustice the Qi family had done to you?"
"That's not right. My elder sister said before that she would love Madam. Didn't she also say last time that she would embroider a handkerchief for Madam?"
Lin Yingxue also went there, but although she clearly saw it, she did not say a word and allowed her mother to be humiliated in the Qi Mansion.
Didn't Lin Yingxue say she also wanted to love and care for Qi? Then what kind of love and care was this?
That's right, she was obviously trying to sow discord between mother and daughter and mocking Lin Yingxue for being selfish.
this?
Qi was suddenly stabbed in the heart by a needle.
She stood up suddenly and said, "Shut up. Your elder sister naturally loves me. She is still too young. How could she understand the twists and turns here? Lin Qingjun, stop talking nonsense."
Lin Qingjun smiled to himself.
Is she panicking?
Okay, she stopped talking nonsense.
She said, "Yes, I was wrong. I won't say it again next time. But Madam, is there anything you want to ask me for?"
It’s so early in the morning, can’t I sleep?
There was also the basin of dirty water that the servant outside poured on the edge of her skirt.
Throwing the scalding teacup at her.
If you have something to say, just say it. Don't waste your time on useless things.
After hearing this, Qi finally came to her senses from her anger.
However, now, she did not have the urge to speak as before, because her next words still revolved around the Qi Mansion and were about its future.
But Lin Qingjun was also right. The Qi family really didn't take her seriously. How could a fourth-rank official's wife sit below the wives of seventh- and eighth-rank officials? The Qi family really bullied her too much.
No, that's not right.
Maybe it wasn't the old lady's intention, but the intention of the subordinates?
The person in charge of the household affairs in the Qi Mansion now is Qi Luoshi from the third room. Perhaps she made the arrangements on her own, and it has nothing to do with the old lady who loves her.
So, she is doing this not for those people, but for the old lady.
Thinking of this, Qi's previous indifference immediately disappeared.
Lin Qingjun did not miss any expression on Qi's face, from anger to thought and then to understanding.
Lin Qingjun wanted to laugh. Could it be that the Qi family thought that everything here had nothing to do with Old Madam Qi, and that it was done by the current head of the family, Qi Luo?
But she didn't think about it. How could she, Qi Luoshi, not let Old Madam Qi review the arrangements for such a grand birthday banquet? What's more, it was Old Madam Qi who personally moved her seat there?
Because, she, Qi, was not originally the direct bloodline of her old lady Qi. Not only that, in order to conceal the fact that she had slept with Qi Liu, old lady Qi replaced all the people who knew about the incident and covered up the matter.
The real Old Madam Qi, the real grandmother of the Qi family, had been killed by the current old man long ago. To put it bluntly, she, the Qi family, is now recognizing a thief as her mother.
Also, if Qi had any common sense, she should have thought about this: that old woman is only fifty now. How could she have given birth to a granddaughter who is over thirty years old? What? Could it be that she really believed what the old woman said about the daughter born to Qi Liu's concubine?
Thinking of this, Lin Qingjun secretly took a step back, feeling that if she got any closer to her, she would be infected with her stupidity.
She said, "Madam, did you see anything at the birthday banquet? Madam, just tell me, I am the daughter of the Lin family. I will only protect the future of the Lin family and will never tell anyone."
She would just secretly watch the show in her heart.
After hearing this, Qi finally felt relieved and expressed her doubts about the Moonlight Brocade that the eldest princess had sent her yesterday.
She said, "Although moonlight brocade is beautiful, it is not suitable for an old lady of her age. Such a bright and eye-catching color seems more suitable for someone younger."
