"Xiuzhe explained the matter of you stabbing him, and he is not seriously injured. He also said that he doesn't mind you treating him like this, which made me calm down. After all, he did something wrong to you, and you wanted to punish him and he accepted it."
This was actually a warning to Qin Wu that she had stabbed Qi Xiuzhe, and now that it was over, Qi Xiuzhe no longer owed her this guilt.
Qin Wu's expression remained calm. She took another sip of the already warm tea and listened to her continue talking.
"As his wife, you should also understand how difficult it is for him. I'm not targeting you. Can't we just talk it out at home?
You had to do such a shameful thing to him in front of insignificant outsiders. He was ridiculed. As his wife, what good would this do you? ”
"It is said that husband and wife share prosperity and adversity. As a woman, and Xiuzhe's wife, you should think about him."
Wang pretended to be an elder and said words of reconciliation, but inwardly she was scolding Qin Wu for being jealous, ignorant, and an unqualified wife.
"You, don't be so stubborn. A woman should learn to be humble and gentle so that she can win her husband's heart."
"Xiuzhe has gone to work today. Go over there and admit your mistake in the evening. Mother will help you speak up. Husband and wife don't hold grudges overnight. He is so tolerant of you, he still has you in his heart."
"If not, I wouldn't have let you stab me like this to help you resolve the resentment in your heart."
...
...
Behind the screen, Yan Shiyi, who was sitting beside the bed looking at little Nuonuo, naturally heard what Wang said.
His eyes were deep as he looked through the screen at the vague figure of Qin Wu sitting at the table.
Qin Wu and Qi Xiuzhe have been childhood sweethearts for so many years. If Qi Xiuzhe looks back, will Qin Wu continue to be with Qi Xiuzhe?
Yan Shiyi's hands, which were hanging on his thighs, clenched a little.
Qin Wu smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes, and she responded obediently, "Mother is right."
Seeing that Qin Wu did not refute, Wang finally felt a little relieved.
Yes, doesn’t she know what situation she is in? If she were to quarrel with the Qi family, there would be no place for her.
If you give her some face, she will go down the stairs, which shows that she still has some tact.
After laying the groundwork, Wang went on to talk about the main purpose of her visit.
"I heard that you swallowed a batch of charcoal some time ago. Now, there is no charcoal at home. Charcoal is in short supply these days. You can give this batch of charcoal to Jiali for emergency use."
"After a while, when the snow stops and the road is open, I will ask someone to buy some charcoal for you."
"As long as you are a good daughter-in-law, when Miss Qin comes to marry you, mother will stand by you."
Wang's tone was condescending, as if she was telling Qin Wu that she was giving her a chance to please her.
She believed that Qin Wu would be very happy to hear what she said and would quickly give her all the charcoal she had stored.
Qiufen, who was standing aside, was almost rolling her eyes to the sky. This wife of the marquis was simply too shameless.
A few days ago, she and Qiu Shuang went to the internal affairs warehouse to collect charcoal, but they were severely ridiculed by the maidservant beside the marquis's wife, who also refused to let them collect the charcoal.
Now that the Qi family can't buy charcoal, they come to rob the young lady and act like they are giving alms. Who does she think she is?
When asking for help, you should have the attitude of asking for help!
Qin Wu asked Qiufen to add another cup of tea for her, and smiled, "My mother's family can't buy charcoal. If you ask me for it, I won't refuse to give it to you."
Before Wang could speak, Qin Wu continued, "But you also said that if I were to stop spending money in the yard, we would have to cook in our own yard, which would consume too many things."
"I didn't know how hard it was for my mother to run the household before. Now that I'm the only one in the courtyard, I have to take care of everything by myself, and manage the expenses of the courtyard. Only then did I realize how money flows like water..."
"Besides, I have nothing left as a dowry. Mother, you won't want to rob me of my yard for no reason, right? If I tell anyone about this, I'm afraid it will hurt your reputation, right?"
Upon hearing this, Wang's face suddenly darkened.
When someone's daughter marries into another family, it would be fine if the family cuts off the daughter-in-law's expenses, but if the other party also sets his sights on taking her things, he would be ridiculed to death if this were made public.
Qin Wu was blaming her openly and secretly, which was simply outrageous.
She had even lowered her dignity to give her a chance to please her, but she was still so ungrateful?
She didn't even think about the fact that when Qin Yinnuan got married, she wouldn't even be able to please her. Without her mother-in-law to favor her, how could she have a good life!
"What are you saying, Concubine?" Cui Ju, the maidservant standing beside Wang, was the first to scold her, "You are now the daughter-in-law of the Qi family, so your things should belong to the Qi family?"
"How can I tell so clearly what's yours and what's mine?"
"Now there is no charcoal to buy in the palace, and you secretly store the charcoal for your own use. Do you want the prince to suffer from the cold when he comes back at night? How can you be the prince's consort like this..."
Qin Wu glanced at Cui Ju, "Since when did a servant dare to interrupt the master when he was speaking?"
Cui Ju, who originally wanted to blame Qin Wu on behalf of Wang, looked into her eyes and began to lose confidence.
"I asked her to say it." Wang said coldly. How could her maid be wrong?
"Oh." Qin Wu said slowly, "Then next time I will know whether this maid can represent the Marquis's wife."
Wang's eyes suddenly swept towards Cui Ju.
Cui Ju was panicked and quickly explained, "Madam, I have no intention of taking your place..."
"The Crown Prince's Consort is so disrespectful to you. I am just angry on behalf of Madam..."
"Okay, shut up." Wang's boomerang spun around on herself, suppressing her deep displeasure.
Wang wanted to slap Qin Wu in the face and teach her some rules!
But I really can't break up with her now.
She smiled and said, "Qin Wu, this maid is really rude. I will teach her a lesson when I get back."
"You haven't had a good confinement period since you gave birth. I should have come to help you take care of the child, but it's almost the end of the year and there are too many things to do."
"I stopped paying you before because I was angry about Xiuzhe. You are a mother now, and you know how worried a mother is about her son. How can I remain calm when seeing someone hurting her own son? Please understand my feelings as a mother."
"Well, the baby is almost one month old, I'm planning to hold a one-month banquet for him, what do you think?"
Wang smiled and added, "How come you also gave birth to a child for the Qi family? I've kept it in mind."
"We are all family, so we shouldn't be so clear about the differences. Go to Xiuzhe's place tonight and have a good talk. If you give in, you will be able to live a good life."
How could Wang lower herself to ask Qin Wu for charcoal, especially such low-grade charcoal?
If she wasn't in urgent need of it, why would she have the nerve to step into her yard.
It would be Qin Wu who should beg her.
She had to let her take the initiative to give her the charcoal.
She has said such nice things and is even going to hold a full-month banquet for her daughter. She should be satisfied, right?
You know what to do, right?
