Chapter 301: The Evil Slave Blocks the Way
Aunt Qi went to the main hall to see what was going on.
But Mrs. Su only stayed until Lin Qingjun got married and left the house, and then left without even having a bite of food.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"Mrs. Su, the wedding banquet is about to begin. Where are you going? Mrs. Liu, don't leave either. It's almost starting. I've prepared your favorite dishes."
Madam Liu looked at her with pity and kindly reminded her, "Madam Lin, you should think about whether you have offended anyone recently. Also, we will definitely not eat this meal. No matter how delicious the food is, it cannot compare to life. Oh, by the way, Madam Lin, let's not have any more contact in the future."
After Madam Liu finished speaking, she chased after Madam Su, "Madam Su, please wait for me. I have something important to discuss with you."
The wedding banquet at the Lin Mansion came and went quickly, leaving Qi stunned and unable to react for a long time.
"...Ms. Qi, what on earth are you doing? Why have all the guests left? And, there are also male guests, why haven't any of them arrived?"
Lin Zhi came over angrily and started scolding him.
Qi was already angry, and this time she got mad at the slightest bit.
"What does it have to do with me whether male guests come or not? Isn't that your business? Are you blind and don't you see that all my guests have left? Lin Zhi, I warn you, speak politely to me in the future, otherwise I will kick out your concubine Qin and those two illegitimate children."
Lin Zhi was shocked. How dare Qi speak to him like that? Was this outrageous?
He didn't give in and started cursing, "Be polite? Qi, do you really think you are the same Qi from before? You still think your Qi family is deeply loved by the eldest princess, but don't you see what the Qi family is like now? She's come here to ask for money, don't you know?"
Qi's face turned pale. "You, what do you mean? What's going on in the Qi Mansion now? Didn't she come here to give Yingxue my dowry?"
Lin Zhi looked at her sarcastically, "Sending a dowry? Do you really think the Qi Mansion is any good? They are using Lin Yingxue's name to get close to the prince. Well, even if they are here to deliver a dowry, why didn't she leave immediately after delivering it, but waited until now? That's because she still wants to use the face of the Wu'an Marquis Mansion to build relationships. My silly lady, don't be so foolish as to let others use you and fail to see the situation clearly. I'm not afraid to tell you that the decline of the Qi Mansion has only happened this year. You should think carefully about whether you are on the side of my Lin Mansion or the side of the Qi Mansion."
After saying that, Lin Zhi snorted coldly and left with a flick of his sleeves.
He originally thought that today would be his glorious day, and he held the wedding banquet in a grand manner according to Lin Qingjun's instructions. He did not feel sorry for his daughter, but like Madam Qi, he wanted to use the influence of the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion to make friends with more people whom he could not make friends with on a normal day.
But how could he have imagined that no male guests would come today? He looked at the table full of delicious food and wine, and suddenly felt like a huge slap in the face from the air.
"Oh, I'm so mad."
In anger, Lin Zhi overturned the food and wine on the table, and the food and wine spilled all over the floor, making a mess.
When Xiao Tao Xia Yang heard about this, she was so excited that she told it over and over again in front of the sedan chair carried by eight people, venting all the anger she had suffered over the years.
"Miss, they actually get slapped in the face sometimes. It's really retribution. They deserve it."
"Miss, you will walk towards your bright future. Your blessings are yet to come."
"It's a pity that we didn't see their faces in person, otherwise, we would have been even happier."
In the wedding sedan, Lin Qingjun did not think that she would have a smooth life in the future. Every family has its own problems, and the one at the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion should be even more difficult because it involves too many things.
She said to Xiao Tao, "After entering the Wu'an Marquis' Mansion, you must be more cautious in what you say and do. Without my order, you must not make decisions on your own. It's not that you don't want to cause trouble for me, but you don't want to cause trouble for Madam Ji, understand?"
Xiaotao accepted the order and agreed.
No one expected that trouble would come to the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion so soon.
There was a huge brazier in front of the majestic gate of the mansion.
When Xiaotao Xieyang saw this, she immediately understood what trouble her young lady was talking about, and she was also very angry.
"Mrs. Ji is such a jerk! She actually used this to intimidate the young lady."
"That's right, this is too outrageous. The bride stepping over the brazier when entering the house is just a gesture. A small brazier would be enough. But now, this brazier is so big, and the charcoal fire inside is burning so brightly. How can our young lady step over it?"
This is too bullying.
In addition, the young lady is wearing this wedding dress. If she is not careful, she will not only get into trouble, but she may even die from it.
Xieyang clenched his fists tightly, "Don't worry, miss, I will get rid of this brazier for you right away."
Xiao Tao held him back, "No, if you drop it this time, what about that time?"
Xie Yang was anxious. "What can we do? Let the young lady die here? No, I will go find the prince and ask him to make the decision for our young lady."
Xiaotao nodded, this was the only way.
Lin Qingjun stopped him, "He made the decision for me this time, but what about after that? Doesn't that mean he'll have to make the decision for me from now on? And don't you see? This is Madam Ji's trap."
If she didn't step over, then she, the bride, would not be lucky. If she stepped over, she would either die or be disabled. If she found Ji Chenchuan, that would be exactly what she wanted. She would definitely say that Ji Chenchuan had disobeyed her, the elder, before the bride even entered the house. Therefore, these three paths were all dead ends.
Xiao Tao Xi Yang's face turned pale. "Then Miss, what should we do now? We can't really step over it, right?"
Lin Qingjun didn't look panicked at all, she just stood there calmly.
"Don't worry, I'll be there."
Or they just let us pass.
When Nanny Wu saw the place full of people watching the fun, she smiled triumphantly.
"Why aren't you moving, Second Miss Lin? Can't you step over this brazier today? Oh, that won't do. You know our young master is frail. If you don't step over it, won't you bring the disease to our young master? This is absolutely not allowed. So, for the sake of our young master, you'd better step over this brazier quickly. Otherwise, please go back to where you came from."
Xiao Tao's face tightened. "What nonsense are you talking about? How can a bride go back home after getting married?"
Nanny Wu sneered, "Since you're not going back, then hurry up and cross the river. Don't miss the time. Your young lady still has two more levels to pass."
Nanny Wu's words were profound. Did they mean there were two more incidents like this? Did they mean that Ji Wu had no intention of letting them in at all?
"You are going too far."
"Hmph, don't say such harsh words. You are just a concubine's daughter, and you are marrying into our Wu'an Marquis Mansion. It is obvious that you are marrying above your station. Now I am just giving you a small test. What? You can't do it? Haha, if you enjoy the position of the Crown Prince's Consort, you must endure the hardships. Miss Lin, you should make your choice quickly. I don't have time to waste here with you."
