After a while, Mother Wei finally recovered and pointed at Ji Xueru and said, "You are not a good wife. You are not a good wife."
"Ji Xueru, you're having an affair with someone before you're married, do you think you're right?"
"That's fine. If we get married in the future and find out you're such a fickle woman, that would be a disaster for our Wei family."
"Ji Xueru, our engagement is over. A shameless woman like you is not worthy of entering the Wei family."
Ji Xueru's face also turned ugly, and she sneered: "You want me to marry into the Wei family, am I willing?"
"You're such a disgusting man who's only interested in calculating your fiancée's dowry. You don't even want it from me. Get out!"
"If you come again, don't blame me, the Ji family's servants, for driving you away." As he said this, the Ji family's servant came out holding a wooden stick.
Lord Wei looked at her coldly, supported the trembling Mother Wei, and turned away.
Ji Xueru shuddered for no reason, because she was frightened by the other party's snake-like eyes.
"Girl..." Xiaolan was anxious when she saw people around her pointing and talking.
If the Zhou family doesn't want the girl, how will she have the chance to climb up in the future?
"Go home." Ji Xueru glared at Xiaolan unhappily, turned around and went straight into the yard.
Soon two rumors spread in the capital. One was that Lord Wei was greedy and was calculating the dowry of a woman who was not even his fiancée.
Lord Wei was directly scolded and cursed by his superiors, and was almost forced to stay at home for rest. It was only after Wei's mother cried and begged that the decision was finally made.
Ji Xueru didn't get any good results either. In the evening, a carriage stopped at the gate of Ji's courtyard.
A well-dressed woman got out of the car. When the gatekeeper learned that she was the mistress of the Zhou family, he hurried to inform her.
Ji Xueru was leisurely enjoying the breeze and drinking rock sugar water in the yard. When she heard that Mrs. Zhou had arrived, she quickly tidied her clothes and ran to the hall.
When we arrived, Mrs. Zhou was sitting in the main seat.
Ji Xueru stepped forward and greeted her: "My daughter greets Madam Zhou."
"Well, he's quite handsome, but his family tradition is really bad and he's not presentable."
Ji Xueru's face turned ugly for a moment, but she didn't refute and kept her head down.
After a while, Madam Zhou finally spoke: "But since you have already had physical contact with my son, my Zhou family will naturally not treat you unfairly."
"My son promised you the status of a noble concubine, but as far as I know, your father is just a teacher. He is not worthy of being a noble concubine. Please be a good concubine."
Ji Xueru's expression became even uglier. She pursed her lips and said obediently after a while, "I'll follow Madam's arrangements."
"Well, you'll be welcomed into the mansion in three days. Please write a letter to inform your father as soon as possible!"
"I'm not going to marry you as my principal wife, so there's no need to go through so much trouble." After saying that, Mrs. Zhou stood up in disgust and left with the help of her maid.
After everyone left, Xiaolan came forward happily and said, "Miss, since Madam Zhou has spoken, there should be no problem."
"Are you happy?" Ji Xueru asked her calmly.
Xiaolan immediately smiled even more happily: "Of course I am happy for the young lady, but it is indeed a bit bullying to change from a noble concubine to a good concubine."
"This is not your concern. Has my dowry arrived?" Ji Xueru sat down in the main seat.
Soon someone brought tea over, and Nanny Han stepped forward and said, "Young lady, if nothing goes wrong, the dowry should arrive tomorrow."
"Okay." After saying that, she stood up and walked towards her yard.
Xiaolan was about to follow, but was stopped by her.
Back in her yard, Ji Xueru was so angry that she smashed everything in the house.
After venting her anger, she stared fiercely at the porcelain fragments and clenched her fists, saying, "I will not be defeated. The position of Madam Zhou will definitely be mine in the future. It's mine!"
The next morning.
The Qiu family dressed neatly and went to visit the *** mansion.
The servant at the door had received instructions long ago, and when he saw the Qiu family coming, he hurried forward to greet them.
"I greet the Princess of Changping County, the old lady of the Qiu family, the old master, Mr. Qiu, Mr. Qiu, Mrs. Qiu, and all the gentlemen."
"No need to be so polite." Qiu Yinong had met this doorman once before, so she said with a smile.
After thanking him, the servant said, "County Lady, the Queen has been waiting for a long time. Please come in with your family."
After expressing her gratitude, Qiu Yinong walked towards the gate with her family.
There were two maids guarding the door. When they saw them coming, they first greeted them and then led them into the *** mansion.
Mrs. Qiu and the others were still a little embarrassed and didn't dare to look around.
The maid took them to a flower hall in the second courtyard, where *** was sitting waiting.
Seeing Qiu Yinong and the others coming over, she immediately greeted them with a smile: "Yier, you're finally here."
"I (the concubine) pay my respects to His Highness the Great Lord." Sun Guiying took the lead in kneeling and saluting, followed by Qiu's mother and others.
"Your humble servant greets His Highness." Second uncle Qiu Ziru was not here, and Qiu Wanjin and his father did not hold official positions, so they should call themselves humble servants.
"Grandma, there's no need to be so polite. Yi'er is my adopted daughter now, so we are a family. There's no need to be so polite, no need to be so polite."
Sun Guiying said yes with a smile, stood up, and followed *** to sit down.
After a while, a maid came to report: "Madam, the prince is here."
Zhaohe looked towards the corridor, and Qiu Yinong also looked over, and saw a handsome young man walking towards the flower hall.
When Jingxu came over, he also took in the expressions of everyone in the flower hall. He walked directly into the hall and knelt down to greet Zhaohe: "Mother, I am late."
"It's okay. Come and meet Old Master Qiu, Old Madam Qiu, and Uncle and Aunt Qiu." Zhaohe waved and smiled at Jingxu.
