Chapter 300 My Lady, You Will Definitely Regret It
The wedding banquet was grander than anyone had imagined.
All the prominent ladies in the capital came, even the head nanny of Prime Minister Mu's residence sent a gift. And Mrs. Su, the wife of Minister Su of the Ministry of Revenue, personally brought a picture of hundreds of sons and grandsons to congratulate the Lin family on their daughter's marriage.
Mrs. Qi and Madam Qi took it with trembling hands and said a lot of compliments.
These were people they could not see on a normal day. At the ladies' banquet, these ladies of the fourth rank could not walk in front of the ladies of the first rank. They could only stand and watch from afar, hoping that one day they could chat with them and show their status among the ladies.
Today was the first time in their lives that they were so close, so they were naturally very excited, but they didn't see the disgust and sarcasm in their eyes.
The maidservant beside Madam Su sneered softly, "Do they really think they have the ability to invite us? All this is because of the Wu'an Marquis Mansion."
Madam Su smiled and said, "Alright, it's good to know. Why would you say it out loud? Although the Wu'an Marquisate is not as strong as it once was, based on the old lady's bloody achievements, my Su Mansion has to give her a little face."
and.
Madam Su added, "And this time, we are also slapping that Crown Prince Fengyi in the face, aren't we?"
A few days ago, Lin Yingxue was carried out of the Lin Mansion. As a concubine, she was only carried in a sedan chair. There was no wedding banquet at all, and she was not worthy of one. However, this Lin Yingxue was able to enter the Prince's Mansion before them. There was no way they would not remember this grudge. They came here today to give face to the Wu'an Marquis Mansion, and secondly to satirize Lin Yingxue.
The maid suddenly asked again, "Madam, didn't they say that the Lin family would marry off the legitimate daughter? How did it suddenly become a concubine's daughter? Even if the legitimate daughter didn't get married, it wouldn't be the concubine's daughter's turn to take over this marriage."
This is totally wrong. Moreover, the Marquis of Wu'an actually agreed to it?
Madam Su then frowned, not understanding the reason. She could only say, "Don't bother with those trivial matters. We should just do our own thing. ...By the way, when you get back to the mansion later, tell the concierge not to accept any invitations from the Lin Mansion in the future."
"Yes, ma'am."
Qi and Madam Qi were still happy, but they didn't know that Madam Su and others had secretly cut off contact with them long ago.
etc.
Madam Qi looked at the ladies in the courtyard and was a little confused. "This isn't right. Look, why are all the ladies here? Why aren't any of the adults, ladies, or gentlemen here?"
Normally, one should bring the young ladies along to a wedding banquet, and the adults would also come, but why are all the ladies in the yard coming?
Qi was startled, but soon she became complacent. "What's wrong with that? The ladies coming here just proves that I'm popular. Besides, you're here to socialize, don't tell me you're here to socialize with the adults?"
Madam Qi finally nodded. "You're right. I'm here to socialize with the ladies. But, you're said to be popular, how come I didn't notice? Okay, stop talking. There's not enough tea. I'm going to serve Madam Su tea. I want to serve it myself, and it's the best tea."
After saying that, she ignored Qi's twitching face and ran out in a hurry.
Qi followed closely behind. How could she possibly give her such a good opportunity to win face? She also wanted to seek a marriage for her son. She heard that Madam Su had a legitimate daughter who was a perfect match for her son.
Aunt Qi came hurriedly to report.
"Madam, something bad has happened. Qijun Courtyard has invited a highly respected person to comb Lin Qingjun's hair. Should we go over and take a look?"
When her eldest daughter was carried out, it was only she who combed her hair. Now, a concubine's daughter is getting married, and she can actually invite an old man from Fuquan to come. This is a slap in the face of her eldest daughter.
Qi was stunned for a moment, then said nonchalantly, "Come on, what should I see? Can I stop it?"
Aunt Qi was shocked. "But Madam, don't you want to avenge the eldest lady?"
Qi chuckled, "She doesn't even care about me as her mother, so why should I avenge her?"
Nanny Qi continued, "Not only that, but there's also the dowry in Qijun Courtyard. There seems to be something wrong with it. It seems to be a lot more."
Mrs. Qi was getting impatient. "More? How much more could she have? I only gave her five thousand taels of silver, and Mrs. Liu is poor, so how much more could she have? Could it be that she just got a few empty boxes to make things look better?"
Aunt Qi shook her head. "No, those servants were clearly carrying very heavy boxes. Madam, I think you are still..."
Madam Qi tutted her words. "Madam Qi, are you my nanny or that Lin Qingjun's? I have more important things to do right now than her dowry and Elder Fuquan. Don't try to stop me. If that bitch gets to pour tea for Madam Su before I do, I'll be doomed."
After saying that, Qi pushed Nanny Qi away and left without looking back.
Aunt Qi opened her mouth to call out, but the figure had already walked away.
Her face was pale. "My wife, if you knew how Lin Qingjun got married, you would definitely regret it."
The little servant girl beside her asked, "Mammy, what should we do now? Should we go and stop the Second Young Lady?"
Aunt Qi smiled miserably. "Block? Do you think we can block it with just the two of us? You saw it just now. We can't even get close to Qijun Courtyard."
Thinking of this, Aunt Qi's eyes flashed slightly.
"The people who stopped us are from Prince Ji's side, which means Prince Ji is very interested in the Second Miss."
In other words, maybe the person Prince Ji really likes is Lin Qingjun. This can also explain why when Nanny Li came over that day and said that she had no objection to changing to Lin Qingjun. So, they had planned it long ago?
When Aunt Qi realized this, she became even more anxious. She raised her leg to go over and tell Mrs. Qi, but she stopped again, looking frustrated.
"What good will it do if I tell my wife? It's already been decided, and no one can go back on their word."
Could they possibly be so powerful as to defeat the Marquis of Wu'an? She thought Madam Su's coming here wasn't because she was popular, but because the Marquis of Wu'an had secretly pushed her. Otherwise, why would a first-rank lady personally come to the residence of a small fourth-rank official to present gifts?
The little servant girl became even more anxious, "Mammy, what should we do now? Mammy, I just arrived in the mansion not long ago. I don't want to offend anyone. I still want to live."
Madam Qi glared at her and said, "Why are you panicking? How could a mere servant like you die? Even if you were to die, it would be..."
When she said this, her expression changed slightly.
If anyone had to die, it would be her, the personal nanny following the lady, who would die.
"No, no, I can't end up like that. I haven't lived enough yet. ... Let's go and see how the lady is doing."
She'd better not bother with Lin Qingjun, so as not to get into trouble.
