Yun Qing was working on the accounts in her study when a maid came to report that her cousin had arrived.
Yun Qing felt a sense of relief, as if the moment had finally arrived. Women understand each other, and she naturally knew what Wang Jiaofa was planning.
"Please go to the front hall, Miss. I'll be there shortly."
"yes"
Wang Jiao came here with a firm resolve. She had considered starting with Zhu Tao, but to no avail. She could tell that every time she ran into Zhu Tao, he grew even more disgusted with her.
Her aunt always listened to her cousin, and as for her cousin, although she sympathized with her, she just told her to relax.
Wang Jiao is now powerless to help!
So he went to his cousin's wife.
“Miss, I have informed Madam. She said she would like you to have a cup of tea. Please wait a moment, as Madam is still dealing with some matters. I will take you to the front hall first.”
Wang Jiao smiled and said, "Thank you, young lady. Please lead the way."
Wang Jiao looked delicate and had a smile on her face, but what she was really thinking remained a mystery.
Wang Jiao initially waited with a smile, but she wasn't a particularly patient person by nature. In addition, she was already feeling uncomfortable waiting for her love rival, so she quickly became impatient.
The smile was still on his face, but it was somewhat stiff, and he looked a little strange.
Wang Jiao drank a glass of water, and then stopped drinking. She needed to relieve herself after drinking too much water, and she was really embarrassed to do so in front of her love rival.
Wang Jiao waited until the smile on her face disappeared before Yun Qing slowly appeared.
Yun Qing didn't mean it on purpose; she was indeed dealing with something, but it was also true that she didn't take Wang Jiao to heart, since the matter wasn't particularly urgent and there was no need to rush to deal with it.
When Wang Jiao saw Yun Qing, her smile returned.
Yun Qing spoke first, "Cousin, what brings you to my place? You're a rare guest indeed! I've been so busy that I forgot the time, and I've kept you waiting."
Wang Jiao's smile seemed a little forced.
"My sister's matter is important; I'm the one who suddenly came to bother her."
elder sister?
Yun Qing pondered the two words carefully in her heart, a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
Yun smiled gently and said, "Why call me sister? Since I'm marrying your cousin, I'm your cousin's wife. Mother said you have a gentle nature and originally wanted to get closer to you, but once I took over the household management, I got busy and didn't have any time. I just hope you don't blame your cousin's wife for neglecting you."
Yun Qing is usually quite fair in her dealings, and she is confident in her abilities. The household has a simple structure, and since everyone there is new, it is very easy to manage.
As for ignoring Wang Jiao, her cousin, it's not really true. She has no shortage of food and drink, and is even better off than before she married into the family. No one can say anything wrong with that.
Her mother-in-law was also very satisfied with her.
Wang Jiao called out stiffly, "Sister-in-law."
Yun laughed heartily and said, "That's more like it! Don't be so distant with your cousin-in-law, she's sixteen this year, isn't she!"
Wang Jiao: "Sixteen."
"Oh, I didn't expect my cousin to be about the same age as me. She looks so young. When Mom first told me your age, my sister-in-law didn't believe it!"
Wang Jiao did not feel happy about being praised for being young.
Wang Jiao then said, "My cousin-in-law looks much younger; I can't compare to her."
"You're making your cousin-in-law feel embarrassed by what you're saying. You're actually two months older than me! Mother was talking to you about how you're getting on in years and should be looking for a husband. Although Mother didn't ask you to help me find one, since you're my cousin-in-law, if you have any ideas, you might as well talk to her. My brother knows quite a few people, and if all else fails, my husband knows quite a few good friends too."
Wang Jiao blushed, not from embarrassment, but from anger.
Seeing this, Yun Qing laughed even more heartily.
"Cousin, don't be shy. What's there to be shy about with your sister-in-law? Every girl has to go through this."
Wang Jiao suddenly lowered her head and said in a very shy voice, "Thank you for your kindness, cousin-in-law. My cousin said that my marriage is not in a hurry. My cousin always doted on me, his cousin, the most when we were in the family. I shouldn't have troubled my cousin, but he said that he is worried that I will marry someone casually and that I might marry the wrong person. So I won't trouble my cousin-in-law with my marriage."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qing couldn't help but overthink. However, Zhu Tao's kindness towards her didn't seem fake. Besides, having spent so much time in the inner quarters, she was also familiar with such petty tricks as sowing discord. She just didn't know how credible Wang Jiao's words were.
Yun Qing thought for a moment, then said with a smile, "My husband, as an older brother, wants his younger sister to have a good marriage. He is a good older brother. Just like my brother, he was afraid that I would marry the wrong person, so he found a good husband for me. I think my cousin will also be able to marry a good man in the future."
Wang Jiao continued, "Back when I was still in my hometown, my cousin once said that he would definitely make sure I had a good life. At that time, I felt that my cousin was really good to me. I thought to myself, even my cousin Xiu'er couldn't get my cousin to value me like this, so what did I do to deserve this? I never expected that after my cousin achieved success, he would also let me come to the capital with him."
Wang Jiao spoke with a look of nostalgia, which made Yun Qing feel like she was going to vomit blood. She hadn't had a good life after marrying into the family for long before a rival appeared, and one who was particularly troublesome.
Yun Qing naturally refused to admit defeat.
“Oh, I see. Such a brother is rare indeed. When my husband returns, I will have a good talk with him and ask him to find a good husband for my cousin as soon as possible, so as not to delay her blossoming season.”
Looking at Yun Qing's calm expression, Wang Jiao felt uneasy. What she said was half true and half false, and her purpose was simple: to sow discord. She knew that her cousin had only been married for a short time and did not know much about his new wife. If his new wife was suspicious and made a fuss every day, the relationship between the couple would naturally develop cracks.
