Chapter 57 Which family's young lady is it? Let me touch and hug her!
Listening to the Rain Pavilion.
study.
Qian Yueshu was looking at the account book when her cousin suddenly barged in.
She was already quite annoyed by being disturbed while reviewing the accounts.
But after hearing her cousin's purpose for coming, she immediately felt happy.
To be honest, she really wanted to see Xie Jingxing get his comeuppance.
even.
In a good mood, she had a servant bring her a pot of tea. She elegantly picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said leisurely, "Talking isn't enough. You should cry for me to see."
Qian Yueqiu took a deep breath and composed herself.
She turned her head slightly to a forty-five-degree angle, her eyes brimming with tears, threatening to fall, a perfectly placed blush appearing on the tip of her nose, and her voice trembled with a hint of grievance: "Cousin..."
There was no wailing, no loss of composure.
Qian Yueshu looked at the scene before her, her eyes flashing with undisguised amazement and satisfaction.
She put down her teacup, clapped her hands, and chuckled softly: "Beautiful, look at those tears welling up in her eyes, about to fall... those slightly trembling shoulders... even I, as her older sister, am almost captivated by it, let alone that scoundrel Xie Jingxing!"
Qian Yueshu's words were definitely not meant to flatter Qian Yueqiu.
But she herself can cry beautifully!
However, Qian Yueshu's image, both in public and in front of His Highness the Crown Prince, was that of someone quite scheming.
Even when she cried.
That sense of fragility is inevitably halved, or even more.
But Qian Yueqiu was different.
She is truly naive, even to the point of being somewhat dim-witted...
Qian Yueqiu started to cry.
Even now, with a clear purpose in mind, this is a form of "pretending."
The natural innocence and bewilderment in his eyes.
There was no emotion mixed in his eyes.
It will also naturally dissolve the trace of "pretending", leaving only a fragile feeling that makes people's hearts tighten.
It makes people believe it without even realizing it.
Qian Yueqiu had truly suffered a tremendous injustice and was extremely saddened, which aroused boundless affection and protectiveness in her.
The next day.
Um.
Today I'm going to dress up nicely and go ask Xie Jingxing for the money.
My cousin said, "If she makes herself look beautiful, then she's already halfway to getting the debt back."
So Qian Yueqiu got up early to dress up.
A carefully made-up face was reflected in the bronze mirror.
Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, meticulously drawn by her maid with snail-shell ink until they achieved the perfect curve; her lips were like cherries, adorned with fresh flower juice, radiating a delicate rosy hue.
"Miss, today we must make sure that Young Master Xie can't take his eyes off her." Cui'er smiled as she combed her cloud-like black hair.
Sun Cuier!
He was a servant boy raised by the Qian family since childhood.
He studied under Qian Yueshu and also knows how to do accounting.
She is Aunt Sun.
In her previous life, she was the one who ultimately killed Crown Prince Xiao Qingxuan.
Qian Yueshu liked her very much, after all, she was her trusted maid and was loyal to her.
But in this life.
Qian Yueshu dared not keep her by her side, fearing that Xiao Qingxuan would keep thinking about those bad things.
So she arranged for Aunt Sun to be by Qian Yueqiu's side.
Xiao Cui is a smart girl, and having her around can help Qian Yueqiu a lot.
Moreover, she is better able to understand Qian Yueshu's thoughts.
After putting on beautiful makeup, Qian Yueqiu began to be picky about her clothes.
She's going to buy an outfit that matches her stunning makeup look today.
Because of the one million taels of silver given by Xie Jingxing.
Qian Yueqiu went directly to the most famous "Jinyi Pavilion" in the capital.
"Let's go." Qian Yueqiu looked at herself in the mirror one last time, making sure that every strand of hair at her temples was neat and every fold of her skirt was elegant, before taking Xiao Cui's hand and gracefully walking out of the mansion.
She didn't know.
From the moment she stepped out of the Qian family mansion, several pairs of eyes in the shadows silently locked onto her bright and graceful figure.
One of the people targeting her is Su Zhirou.
There's another side, Qian Yueshu's people!
Their purposes were different.
Su Zhirou was definitely trying to harm Qian Yueqiu.
Qian Yueshu wanted to help Xie Jingxing with his matter.
now.
Su Zhirou was sitting in a private room of a teahouse not far from the Qian residence. Her window seat gave her a perfect view of everyone coming and going from the Qian residence.
The old woman beside her whispered, "Miss, everything is arranged."
Su Zhirou's fingertips suddenly tightened.
She might be able to swallow her pride after losing to Liu Yu, since they were evenly matched opponents.
Even Liu Yu is slightly better in terms of family background and talent.
But what is Qian Yueqiu?
Her father was born out of wedlock and was a merchant.
Aside from being pretty, Qian Yueqiu herself is utterly useless.
Su Zhirou refused to accept defeat to a woman like that!
Given that she is going to become Mrs. Xie in the future, Qian Yueqiu is destined to be her rival in love.
So whether you act early or late, it's all the same!
Su Zhirou was very cautious in her actions.
She didn't use her father's influence as the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, nor did she use the influence of the Sixth Prince; instead, she used the Marquis of Huaiyin, a man of the Third Prince.
Marquis of Huaiyin was a capable lieutenant under the Third Prince, and also a notorious playboy in the capital.
His greatest obsession was with beautiful women.
Even with a multitude of concubines in his mansion, he was still not satisfied and spent his days frequenting brothels. He also often harassed respectable women in the streets. Because of his power, most of the victims could only swallow their anger.
Su Zhirou was going to take advantage of the Marquis of Huaiyin's "lustful" nature.
But what Su Zhirou didn't know was...
Just as she was strategizing in the teahouse, thinking herself to be the most cunning of all, she was caught in the middle of a conflict.
Inside the Qian residence, there was also a pair of eyes secretly watching Qian Yueqiu's every move.
This person was Qian Yueshu.
She originally just wanted to create an opportunity for Qian Yueqiu to meet Xie Jingxing.
Unexpectedly, this accidental act thwarted Su Zhirou's scheme!
Qian Yueshu did not inform her cousin beforehand about arranging the chance encounter between Qian Yueqiu and Xie Jingxing.
On the one hand, they genuinely felt she was "not very bright," and on the other hand, they were also pursuing the naturalness of "coincidence."
Thus, the three groups met at the Brocade Robe Pavilion.
Wearing her newly acquired light blue dress, Qian Yueqiu walked out of the Jinyi Pavilion with a radiant expression, the butterflies on the hem of her dress seeming ready to take flight.
She was breathtakingly beautiful at that moment.
Almost at the same time, Xie Jingxing appeared at the entrance of Jinyi Pavilion, just as Qian Yueshu had wished.
Today, he was dressed in a moon-white casual suit, with a tall and straight figure and a refined temperament. Walking in the bustling crowd, he was like a beautiful orchid or a jade tree, a sight to behold.
The Marquis of Huaiyin happened to appear at the entrance of the Embroidered Robe Pavilion.
When he saw Qian Yueqiu, his eyes widened instantly, and his breath caught in his throat: "Oh! Whose young lady is this? She's so beautiful, let me touch and hug her!"
The Marquis of Huaiyin grinned lewdly, stepped forward, and his obese body blocked Qian Yueqiu's path.
His thugs also surrounded him, forming a human wall.
Qian Yueqiu was startled, and the color drained from her face instantly.
She recognized the Marquis of Huaiyin and knew of his infamous reputation.
"My lord, please have some self-respect!" She instinctively took a step back.
"Self-respect? This Marquis knows best how to cherish women." The Marquis of Huaiyin laughed even more unrestrainedly.
