Chapter 422: Record It Under Which Branch?
It was not too late when Qin Wanru woke up the next day. The sky outside was still a bit bright, but Qin Yuru's main house was already noisy. There were many people coming in and out, and the sound was heard early. It was very noisy when they came out, so Qin Wanru had no choice but to get up early.
Reaching out to rub the center of her brow, Qin Wanru called out in a low voice: "Yu Jie!"
But no one responded.
Reaching out to lift the gauze curtain, she saw that there was no one in the house, which made her very strange. Yu Jie was always afraid that something would happen to her when she was outside, so she never left her side.
"Yujie!" She whispered.
This time, no one responded either. He lifted the curtain and got off the bed with his hair disheveled. He was about to go to the window to take a look, but saw the door being pushed open, and Yu Jie walked in with an angry look on her face. , saw that Qin Wanru had woken up, and hurriedly waited for her to wash up.
"Miss, please go find hot water for Miss to wash up. The people over there said that Miss needs to use it. Today is a big deal for Miss. We need to keep an eye on Miss first." Yu Jie said angrily.
Qin Wanru sat down in front of the dressing table and looked at Yu Jie through the mirror calmly: "Have you already gotten up over there?"
"I've been up for an hour. I'm very busy. I said I want to dress up properly. From now on, I will be the young lady of Duke Xingguo's mansion!" Yu Jie curled her lips and said disdainfully.
If others don't know Qin Yuru's background, how can their master and servant not know? She is clearly a fake, and she really thinks of herself as a rich daughter.
"What did grandma say?" Qin Wanru smiled slightly and said calmly. After Qin Huaiyong left yesterday, she sent Yujie to pass the news to the old lady.
"The old lady said she would be here soon!" Yu Jie reported. This was the news she got this morning.
"Okay!" Qin Wanru nodded. At this moment, several parties gathered together, but let's see how this drama goes down.
She tidied up quickly and combed her hair a little. Yujie combed her hair into a double-ring bun and brought a pair of pink garlands, which was simple and beautiful.
The little maid brought breakfast from the kitchen. Qin Wanru ate it calmly and heard someone in the yard saying that someone from the Madam's side was coming!
Standing in front of the window, he saw Nanny Yu entering Qin Yuru's house, following the wife of Duke Xingguo. After a while, a maid came over and asked Qin Wanru to come over.
Qin Wanru had already tidied up the place, and followed the little maid and took Yu Jie up to the upper room.
In the room, Qin Yuru was dressed up and sitting upright on a chair in the middle. Her head that was tilted yesterday was now straightened, but her face was too pale and she didn't look good.
But she was in good spirits. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked more delicate than a flower. She had a few hairpins on her head to fix her thick black hair, and she was gentle and elegant.
Qin Yuru looks like this, she can really intimidate people.
Qin Wanru looked at Qin Yuru calmly and didn't say much. Seeing Qin Yuru stand up and walk out, she followed Qin Yuru and walked slowly out. Qin Yuru is the protagonist today.
A group of people walked out of the hanging flower door and headed to the flower hall outside.
The lady was sitting in the flower hall with a rosy face, and it was obvious that she was in a happy mood. To her right sat several older clan elders who had been invited early in the morning, and behind her stood Mrs. Xingguo Gong.
On the other side sat Mrs. Yong Kangbo and Mrs. Qin. Next to Mrs. Qin was Qin Huaiyong.
Not many people were invited, but every one of them was a key person. Just one glance at Qin Yuru made him feel elated, and he finally got what he wanted.
After glancing at Qin Wanru, Qin Yuru was about to step through the threshold, feeling very excited. With this step, she would be extremely rich in the future.
"Wait a minute!" A familiar voice suddenly came to her ears. Qin Yuru looked sideways and before she could see who it was, she was hit. The maids on both sides saw that it was not good and hurriedly stretched out their hands to support her.
"Sister Yuru, I'm so sorry. I didn't see clearly and I bumped into you accidentally!" Qi Rongzhi stood at the door with an apologetic look on his face, a little panicked. He knew at a glance that it was her who had just bumped into someone.
Seeing Qi Rongzhi's expression, Qin Yuru was so angry that she said she didn't see clearly. It was obviously intentional. But with so many important people sitting inside, Qin Yuru couldn't really break her face and smiled. Roubuxiao said: "It's okay, sister Qi has always been such a reckless person."
"Sister Yuru is really tolerant." Qi Rongzhi said with a smile. After saying this, he rushed into the room first. After entering, he stood behind the Madam of Xingguo Duke's Mansion, putting on a very well-behaved look.
Qin Yuru frowned bitterly and suppressed the anger in her eyes. Of course she would not argue with Qi Rongzhi now.
He held the maid's hand and went inside. He politely waited for Mrs. Taifu and then stood aside.
Mrs. Tai looked her up and down with a bright face, and looked at several clan elders: "This is the girl I like. She is well-educated and courteous at first sight. Although she is occasionally rude, but according to her temperament she is I won’t do anything out of the ordinary, I’m usually forced to do it.”
Her words sounded like she was giving a reason, but the joy on her face revealed her thoughts.
Several clan elders looked at each other for a few times and then nodded.
In fact, they don't have much rights, they just serve as witnesses. At that moment, one of the oldest ones nodded: "It is indeed a good one, it all depends on the orders of the madam!"
"Then remember her!" the lady said with a smile.
"Which branch should I record it under?" The clan elder who had received the benefit naturally nodded and asked logically. Anyway, the Madam recognized it, so she could write it down under whichever branch she wanted.
Qi Ronzhi's face changed, and she became angry. When she was regarded as the adopted daughter by Mrs. Xingguo, she only recognized her and did not record her in the family tree. Seeing Qin Yuru's attitude, she actually wanted to record her in the family tree.
"Just remember the name of my deceased eldest son. He...if he were alive, he might have had such an eldest daughter!" The madam burst into tears, stretched out her handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes with a smile. Not here.
His deceased eldest son was the deceased prince of the former Xingguo Gong. As Qin Wanru said, there was something fishy about Qin Yuru's acknowledgment of relatives this time.
"In the name of the former Prince Xingguo, that would be the best!" The clan elders nodded, thinking that this suggestion was good. Since the Madam Tai likes the eldest lady of the Qin family so much, it is indeed appropriate to record it in the name of the former Prince Xingguo. , status is extremely noble.
"Remember it in the name of the former crown prince of Xingguo? The former crown prince didn't have such a big daughter, right?" Qi Rongzhi couldn't bear it anymore and stood up from behind the wife.
The madam frowned displeased. She didn't care whether she liked or disliked Qi Rongzhi. According to her daughter-in-law, she could only recognize people casually at that time. It was just a helpless move. In the past, she wouldn't let him. Qi Ronzhi came to say hello, but Qi Ronzhi was very polite and would run to her no matter what happened, looking very filial.
But this is just a look. Mrs. Tai met a lot of people, so how could she not understand what Qi Rongzhi meant. In the past, she didn't like to see her very much, she just maintained her gentle appearance.
When she met Qi Ronzhi, she suddenly jumped out and became even more unhappy. She wanted to recognize her granddaughter. What did it have to do with Qi Ronzhi? What she does here is dancing.
At this time, it was not only the madam who frowned, but also several others present. However, the old lady of the Qin Mansion was the calmest. Her eyes fell on Qi Rongzhi's face and she glanced at her calmly without saying a word.
This is the Duke Xingguo's mansion, and it's not her turn to speak. Zhuo Zhuo said that she just needs to watch the show and bear witness!
"Rongzhi, you are still talking nonsense!" Mrs. Xingguo scolded with an unhappy look on her face.
"Mother, Miss Qin is now fifteen years old. She passed the wedding ceremony a few years ago. When she was in Jiangzhou, she married my eldest brother after the wedding ceremony. However, because she wanted to climb a new branch, she designed Qin Wanru's child's character to make her Instead, I got into the sedan chair, and then there was the scandal of having a secret meeting with my elder brother after breaking off the engagement. I had no choice but to stay in Jiangzhou no longer, so I hurriedly entered the capital."
Although Qi Rongzhi was afraid of Duke Xingguo's wife, she was even more afraid that Qin Yuru would steal her favor, so she immediately told everything about what happened in Jiangzhou.
As soon as she said this, the clan elders all looked at Qin Yuru in astonishment, almost not believing that such a woman with no sense of etiquette and shame was the woman that the madam in front of them was interested in.
When they accepted money from the Tai Madam before, they were of course doing things according to the Tai Madam's wishes. Whether Duke Xingguo accepted his granddaughter or not had nothing to do with them.
But when Qi Ronzhi said this, his expression immediately became stern. If this was true, it might harm the entire Shao family.
The reputation of the women of the Shaw family may be affected as the woman in front of them is recorded in the family tree.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" The madam was furious and shouted sternly.
"Madam, I'm not talking nonsense. If Madam doesn't believe it, I have two witnesses here. You can ask Madam to see them!" Qi Rongzhi suppressed the panic in her heart and said. Last night, she not only stole the physical evidence, but also I brought two witnesses from my house.
This is the servant Qi Tianyu brought from Jiangzhou. He knows everything about what happened between Qi Tianyu and Qin Yuru!
Qi Tianyu was not there when she went, so she went into Qi Tianyu's study and rummaged through it. She only said she was looking for a few books, but she rummaged through the study.
Qi Tianyu's servant didn't want her to come in, but when she said she was looking for a very important book and asked them if it disappeared, he had no choice but to let her in.
After Qi Ronzhi found the physical evidence he wanted, he took two important servants away, saying that he wanted to help deal with some matters. He came prepared at this time. Although he was a little scared, he was not panicked.
"Qi Ronzhi, don't talk nonsense. Where did you get the witness?" Qin Yuru immediately knew something was wrong when he heard this, and the dignified expression on his face immediately became confused, and he said in shock.
Jiang Zhou's matter is a bad tumor in her roots, and she is most afraid of people mentioning it.
"Sister Yuru, don't worry, wait and see who comes over!" Qi Rongzhi sneered. She tried her best today and couldn't let Qin Yuru succeed!
