"Bang." The bowl smashed to the ground and the soup spilled all over the floor.
Qin Wu hurriedly stood up and stepped back to avoid being splashed by the soup.
"Miss, are you burned?" Qiu Shuang asked anxiously with a panicked look on her face.
"It's okay, it's just that the soup was too hot and I didn't hold it steady. What a pity for the soup."
Qin Wu looked at Cui Ju with an embarrassed expression, "I have failed my mother's kindness."
A gloomy look flashed across Cui Ju's eyes, and she quickly said, "It's good that the Crown Prince's Consort didn't get burned. I'll go back and tell the Madam later."
"Tell mother that I will go and apologize in person after I finish my work in the next two days."
"I'll take my leave first."
"Wait a minute." Qiu Shuang called her, "I'll go with you to see the Madam. My young lady's marriage..."
"Qiu Shuang." Qin Wu interrupted her, "It would be more sincere if I apologize in person in a couple of days."
...
...
"You can go back."
Seeing Cui Ju left, Qiu Shuang said, "Miss, why don't you let me go to Madam Hou to investigate the thief."
"The key to this private vault is in my hands. Plus, I said two days ago that I would repay the five hundred thousand yuan for raising me. If we don't have evidence, we can go directly to the Marquis' wife. She won't order people to search everyone's room. She might even turn around and accuse me of blackmailing the Qi family."
Then she will have even more excuses to spread her viciousness everywhere.
"Then we don't want these dowries anymore. Can't we get them back?" Qiu Shuang was very anxious. "Miss, if you want to return these dowries, the total amount of these missing items is almost 10,000 taels, and you still have to pay more..."
Not to mention that she couldn't take out the 500,000 yuan, she also had to put so much money into it. Qiu Shuang felt like the sky was about to fall when she thought about it.
"Yes, there are so many people in this mansion. If Madam Hou doesn't allow anyone to investigate, how can we find the person who stole our dowry?"
After Han Shuang finished speaking, he thought of something else, "How about I go search their room in the middle of the night?"
"You, you won't be discovered, right?" Qiu Shuang was timid and a little scared, but she supported her.
Qin Wu gave them both a slap on the head, "What are you thinking about!"
"I have an idea. I will make the person who stole my dowry fall into my trap."
After Qin Wu finished speaking, her eyes fell on the fish maw soup spilled on the ground.
"Go find a cat."
A wild cat came to the scene at the beginning of winter.
Qin Wu let the wild cat eat the soup on the ground.
After a while, the wild cat **.
When Qiu Shuang and others saw this, their expressions changed again and again.
Qin Wu was not surprised at all. She sneered, and it turned out that he had bad intentions.
But she wanted to destroy her just to give her son a reason to divorce her.
She also wanted a divorce, but not to be divorced for a reason.
Since Wang wants to use this method to kick her out, she has to fight back!
The plum blossom viewing party hosted by the Queen invited almost all the promising young men and young ladies from the official families of the Great Zhou.
The main purpose is to select concubines for the second and third princes.
Of course, if a man and a woman are attracted to each other, they can also ask the queen to grant them marriage.
The women who came to participate in the plum blossom viewing party were all dressed up beautifully.
Before the queen arrived, people she knew gathered in the Plum Garden to chat.
The women naturally discussed which young man was outstanding and most suitable to marry.
The most talked about ones were the second and third princes.
After all, if she could become the consort of the second or third prince, she might even become the crown princess or queen in the future...
Qin Yinnuan was wearing a sky blue dress today, and an elegant vest jacket with a white fluffy collar, looking pretty and charming.
Her ears were adorned with the popular enamel earrings and gilded hairpins.
She was surrounded by many rich ladies, like the moon surrounded by stars.
Everyone tried to please her.
Not to mention that she is the daughter of Prime Minister Qin, but also the Princess Lingsi specially conferred by the Emperor.
Moreover, the various jewelry styles sold in the shop she runs are very beautiful and limited edition. Which girl who loves beauty would not want them?
Please her naturally.
Qin Yinnuan really enjoys everyone's flattery of her. Who doesn't like to be admired?
"Yin Nuan, I heard that your adopted daughter wants to sever ties with the Qin family. Is that true? She wants to sever ties with the Qin family on her own. Is she crazy?"
"This bitch just wants to take advantage of the Qin brothers' love for her to force Sister Yin Nuan away!" Qi Xiuzhe's half-sister Qi Lanxin said with disdain, "You don't know how petty she is."
"In my house, she didn't allow the maids who used to serve my brother to have any, and she replaced them all with servants."
"It's best if such a person gets out of your house right away, otherwise you'll be plotted against and killed. If your father hadn't known that she was the one spreading rumors to destroy your reputation, you probably wouldn't have been able to attend the plum blossom viewing party. I think she did it on purpose, she's so vicious..."
"By the way, Sister Qi, I heard a rumor that when Qin Wu gave birth, she asked a male guard to deliver the baby. Is this true?"
Qi Lanxin went to live at her grandmother's house that day, and only when she came back did she find out that Qin Wu had given birth to a daughter.
How would she know?
Before she could say anything, Qin Yinnuan said, "Don't listen to these rumors. It's not good to damage her reputation."
"Yin Nuan, you are just too easy to talk to. No wonder she dares to be so arrogant to you and has always wanted to harm you! She spread rumors that you and Prince Qi had an affair? Even if we suspect that she seduced men even after giving birth, it is not too much..."
"Yes, if it weren't for her, you wouldn't have been criticized and scolded some time ago."
"Prince Qi is a handsome man with elegant manners. You are the real daughter of the Qin family. How could you become a concubine of Prince Qi?"
"Yes, you are the legitimate daughter of the Qin family. How could you become someone's concubine? You must be the consort of the second or third prince."
"The mothers of the Third Prince and the Second Prince both like you very much. It's up to you to choose whichever prince consort you want to be. Yin Nuan, do you like the Second Prince or the Third Prince? Just tell us which one you like, and we will definitely not compete with you for it."
"Don't say that. Just because the Imperial Concubine likes me doesn't mean the Third Prince and the Second Prince like me. I want to find someone who can be devoted to me, otherwise I won't marry." Qin Yinnuan's tone was a little arrogant.
"If it weren't for Qin Wu, you would be my sister-in-law. Sigh..." Qi Lanxin curled her lips. "You are so powerful and even named a princess by the emperor. Why am I not so lucky to have such a good sister-in-law like you, but a sister-in-law like Qin Wu who is so vicious."
When Qi Lanxin was speaking, Qin Wu happened to pass by her. She stopped, looked at the jewelry on her head, and happened to hear her complaints.
"I'm really sorry, you can only blame your brother for marrying me and bringing you bad luck."
Qin Wu's sudden voice startled everyone present.
The moment they saw Qin Wu, everyone's faces changed color.
