Chapter 62: Anger



"As expected, she's from a small border town. She has no sense of etiquette and behaves like a prostitute! She's a disgrace to our family!"

Qin Shuyu heard all the words that were meant to save the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion.

The maidservant next to her, Su Zhu, frowned, looking somewhat dissatisfied.

Although Su Zhu also disliked Chen Wei's behavior, what did Aunt Man mean? This book was approved by the lady herself, and she ran over and shouted that the behavior of a brothel girl was shameful.

Isn't this a subtle criticism of Madam, saying that she doesn't know etiquette and is not a decent woman?

He has just been brought back to the Marquis' Mansion!

Instead of making trouble here and there, can't you just be quiet?

Thinking of this, Su Zhu suddenly realized that Chen Wei had been much more well-behaved in the past month and had become much more respectful to the lady.

"You said that Miss Shen changed the original good book into a loose one, from a good woman to a brothel-like woman, which is disgusting and shameful, right?"

Qin Shuyu raised his eyes.

She lowered her head and looked at Aunt Man, with a hint of displeasure in her eyes: "Aunt Man, do you really think so?"

"Yes ma'am!"

"That's how I recognize it." Aunt Man nodded without even thinking.

She thought what she said touched Qin Shuyu's heart.

After all, before he left the house, the lady had a lot of opinions about Chen Wei. The lady and the marquis were childhood sweethearts, but Chen Wei, this self-righteous woman, intervened and stole the marquis's favor.

If it weren't for the Marquis's face, the lady would probably have wanted to kick Chen Wei out of the house.

"It was so wonderful originally. Wen Lan used her love to move the whole family. When her mother-in-law was sick, she took care of her day and night. In the end, she cured her mother-in-law and won the recognition of her husband and mother-in-law."

"She was even promoted to be the second wife of the third place winner."

"This is a blessing earned through eight lifetimes of hard work. She is a role model for every woman in the harem. She is gentle, hardworking, tolerant, generous, filial, and never fights or competes. Her heart is always thinking about her husband. This is what a good woman should be."

"But what about now? Miss Shen actually changed Wen Lan to marry another number one scholar. Wen Lan is a jealous woman with corrupt character. How can she be worthy of the number one scholar and marry a second husband?"

"This will be laughed at by the whole world!!"

Aunt Man is still talking.

Qin Shuyu's heart ached and his fingertips trembled slightly when he said these words.

Qin Shuyu was the eldest daughter carefully raised by a noble family. Although she had always read the books on women's training and virtue, she had also secretly read history books that men could read when her mother was not paying attention.

Once upon a time, when she was watching the opera "Wenwan Lan Ning", she also asked why?

Why does Wen Lan have to pay so much to get the status of a co-wife?

Why was it that Ning Feng sucked the blood of the Wen family dry and could still suck the blood of the Taifu family, and finally rise to prominence with the help of the woman's family? He was clearly treacherous, but in the end he was praised for his loyalty.

If it weren't for Wen Lan, his mother would have died of illness, and he wouldn't even be able to raise enough money to go to the capital, let alone read the best books and hire the best teachers!

All of this belongs to the Wen family.

How come he was the one who benefited in the end, while Wen Lan suffered so much and only got a good reputation?

Qin Shuyu has been thinking a lot these days. Once a crack appeared in her inner cognition, the crack grew bigger and bigger. She didn't understand, just like she didn't understand her situation in the Marquis' Mansion.

What is the difference between her and Wen Lan?

At that time, Xie Yuchuan had not yet been granted the title of marquis.

It was her father, the Qin family, who wrote a letter to recommend Xie Yuchuan to go to the border to make meritorious deeds. After Xie Yuchuan returned with fame and success using the Qin family's resources, he despised her and took Chen Wei back.

She is so much like Wen Lan!

Wasn't she gentle and generous enough? Wasn't she virtuous enough? Why did she have to do everything right, while Xie Yuchuan could do whatever he wanted? Was she unworthy?

“Bang, bang, bang…”

"Bang!"

Qin Shuyu felt a sharp pain in her temples. She swept the teacup to the ground and for the first time, her dignified and gentle demeanor broke through. "Stop talking!"

"The script that Chen Wei revised was sent to the troupe only after I got my approval."

"Wen Lan spent all her family wealth to help Ning Feng achieve his ambitions. It's clear that Ning Feng is ungrateful and despises his wife. What does this have to do with Wen Lan's bad character? Why should she bear such a bad reputation?"

"Mrs. Man, you were so nosy just after returning home yesterday. You really crossed the line."

Qin Shuyu, who always keeps her composure and maintains the elegance of a mistress, has never lost her temper.

Even though Qin Shuyu had already controlled his emotions, when he said these words, he neither raised his voice nor glared at others, but his tone was a little colder and more severe.

That's all!

Aunt Man was so frightened that she fell to the ground.

Aunt Man looked at Qin Shuyu in surprise, her mind going blank.

"Madam, I, I, I............"

"What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

Suddenly,

A male voice came from outside the door.

When Xie Yuchuan heard the sound of the cup hitting the ground, he immediately rushed over.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Aunt Man fallen to the ground. Her face was pale as if she had been frightened, and she was trembling so much that she couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Qin Shuyu frowned and rubbed his eyebrows with his index finger.

Seeing him enter, Qin Shuyu's expression froze for a second, then he withdrew his gaze, stood up and saluted him: "My Lord."

"What's going on?"

"Suzhu, you speak."

"My Lord, it was Aunt Man who came over with the picture book and said that Miss Shen had changed the original plot, and changed it... and then... in the end, Madam said that she had agreed to it, and Aunt Man was frightened."

Su Zhu quickly explained what had just happened.

Opera script?

How come he hasn't heard of this...Chen Wei is now revising the script, but instead of looking for him, he goes to Qin Shuyu?

What was surprising was that Qin Shuyu, who had always been prejudiced against Chen Wei, actually agreed to her request?

Xie Yuchuan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Qin Shuyu, whose expression had returned to normal. "Really? What did she change into the book? Go call Chen Wei over. I have something to ask her."

"Where's the script? I'll take a look and see if it's truly unbearable to watch."

Xie Yuchuan took the script and started reading.

The atmosphere in the room became very solemn.

After a while.

Chen Wei was called over by Su Zhu.

As soon as she entered the room, she saw Qin Shuyu standing aside with an expressionless face, Aunt Man kneeling on the ground, and Xie Yuchuan frowning as he looked at the notebook she was revising, his face not looking very good.

Only after watching the ending did Xie Yuchuan raise his head and look at Chen Wei with a slightly cold expression: "Why didn't you tell me that you changed the script into this? Why did you make the decision on your own?"
