Chapter 439: Dirty Clothes that Cannot Be Worn
Qin Yuru's carriage was left at the Xingguo Duke's Mansion, leaving a flaw!
At that time, Qin Yuru's true face was revealed, and when everyone in the Qin Mansion went back, the old lady brought a carriage of her own. Under such circumstances, naturally, they had no shame to stay in the Xingguo Duke's Mansion anymore, and they would definitely take Qin Yuru back with them in the old lady's carriage. Then At this time, no one will care about the carriage Qin Yuru came over before.
Of course, even if I think about it, I have no shame in mentioning the previous carriage.
That carriage is bound to land at the Xingguo Duke's Mansion. This is another reason why Qin Wanru invited Mrs. Qin to come, so that Qin Yuru, whose true identity has been exposed, can be taken away.
All the things were intertwined, and everyone's reaction was almost determined. The next step was to deliver the carriage to the third room of Xingguo Duke's Mansion.
Mrs. Shao San was seriously injured and she still can’t get up. This means that Mrs. Shao San did not conspire with Qin Yuru and Mrs. Xingguo. On the contrary, she was injured under the conspiracy of Qin Yuru and Mrs. Xingguo. , coupled with the rumors that Qin Yuru had saved Mrs. Shao San.
Even if this incident was truly an accident, the three houses of the Shao Mansion could not be at peace, not to mention that it was found out that there was another conspiracy.
Qin Wanru is seizing the opportunity now. She must make Mrs. Xingguo too busy to deal with her and have no time to plot her, or the calculation is not thorough in a hurry. She knows that Mrs. Xingguo will definitely take advantage of her before she has a firm foothold in the Xingguo palace. of.
"Who is it?" A woman's scolding voice suddenly came from outside.
"This slave is here to bring the second lady a change of clothes." A maid said timidly.
The mother-in-law looked at the two maids up and down, and looked at the clothes in the trays they were holding. She didn't find anything strange, so she let them out.
The two maids walked in one after the other.
When she got into the room, she saw Qin Wanru leaning on the bed, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "I have seen the Fifth Miss."
The Xingguo Duke's Mansion has four young ladies, and these four young ladies are all older than Qin Wanru. In this way, Qin Wanru's ranking in the Shao Mansion is Miss Shao's fifth.
Qin Wanru has not yet been officially recorded in the Shao family tree, but everyone knows that it is only a matter of time. Everyone in the house shouted first to express their good opinion of Qin Wanru.
"What's the matter?" Qin Wanru asked with an unchanged expression.
"I heard that the young lady is awake, and the madam asked the slave to bring some changes of clothes to the fifth young lady." The first maid replied respectfully. There were several pieces of clothes on the tray in her hand, and it could be seen that they were all new.
The tray in the hands of the maid at the back is smaller, with three exquisite jewelry boxes. You can tell at a glance that they are some jewelry.
"Our young lady brought her own clothes!" Yu Jie took over the topic and replied.
"Our wife said that the fifth young lady is the legitimate daughter of our family. She has a different status, so she naturally has to wear some newly made clothes. These clothes were taken directly from the clothing store according to the lady's body shape. That clothing store is the most popular one. The best one in Beijing.”
The maid replied.
Ready-to-wear available so soon? Qin Wanru was secretly frightened. It could almost be said that after she exposed Qin Yuru and ruined the affairs of Duke Xingguo's wife, she immediately changed her tune and prepared ready-made clothes and other supplies for herself. The speed was really too fast.
"Thank you madam for me!" Qin Wanru said softly.
Even though the people in Duke Xingguo's mansion would call her Fifth Miss out of politeness, she didn't have to call Mrs. Xingguo Duke "Second Aunt" first!
"Yes, please leave!" The two maids handed the trays in their hands to Yu Jie and Qu Le respectively, and then retreated.
Watching the two maids disappear at the door, Qin Wanru frowned slightly and turned her eyes to the two trays of clothes and accessories.
Yujie put the tray in her hand on the table, reached out and took out a piece of clothing, shook it and unfolded it. Even though she was prepared, she couldn't help but admire the embroidery pattern on it.
A very beautiful set of clothes. The light lotus color is also in line with Qin Wanru's past clothing habits. The dots of yellow flowers are spread out into uneven lace at the corners of the skirt, which makes it look more and more girlish. It is indeed a style that girls in the boudoir like nowadays.
The next few sets were like that.
There are four sets of clothes in total, each set is very beautiful and the size is right.
For some women who are good at making clothes, they can sew with just a few glances. It should be that Mrs. Xingguo has a woman who is good at making clothes and has seen Qin Wanru. Choose such a suitable finished product immediately.
"Where are those sets of clothes I had before?" Qin Wanru asked, frowning.
"This...should still be in the previous courtyard!" Yu Jie hesitated and said. When they came, they lived with Qin Yuru in the courtyard next to the hanging flower door. Now they are still in the wing near the flower hall outside.
But this is just a place to rest temporarily, and you can't really live here after all.
"Let's go back first." Qin Wanru lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and Qu Le came over and knelt down to put on her shoes for her.
Qin Wanru helped Yujie stand up straight, calmed down and felt that her condition was not bad, so she nodded to the two maids.
There was nothing else to tidy up in the house. They just took the two trays of things that were delivered to them, and the three masters and servants went out.
Seeing Qin Wanru coming out, the four women hurriedly saluted Qin Wanru, and then followed Qin Wanru to the inner courtyard.
Everyone in Duke Xingguo's mansion now knows that Miss Qin is the daughter of their deceased heir apparent. Anyone who sees their group on the road should step aside and salute.
Qin Wanru led a group of people into the Weeping Flower Gate and came to the courtyard where they lived before.
I just pushed open the courtyard door and saw several women and maids cleaning up in the courtyard. I was immediately stunned. There were no servants in the courtyard when I left.
"Fifth Miss, why are you back?" A woman in charge hurried over and asked with a surprised look on her face.
"Shouldn't I come back?" Qin Wanru asked softly.
"This is just a guest house. How can we let the fifth young lady live here? Madam has arranged a separate place for the fifth young lady to move in. I will take you there now." The woman in charge said enthusiastically.
"Mrs. Xingguo has already prepared the yard for me?" Qin Wanru's expression became strange.
"Yes, we have prepared it for a long time. This guest house is really too shabby. We cannot let Fifth Miss live here. Fifth Miss, please come with me."
"Yu Jie, bring the clothes we brought before!" Since we had already made arrangements and they were reasonable, Qin Wanru naturally couldn't refuse and immediately ordered Yu Jie.
The wives of the two eldest princesses took the trays from Yujie and Qule's hands, and then stepped back politely.
"Miss Fifth, do you still have any clothes here?" The woman in charge turned pale in shock, and she knew something was not good at a glance.
"Our young lady came here to accompany the eldest lady, so naturally she came with clothes." Qu Le said unhappily.
The woman in charge became panicked, pointed and said anxiously: "The slaves came to clean the yard and found some clothes and the like. They thought they belonged to the eldest lady of the Qin family, so they threw them out. I don't know what happened." There is Miss Fifth inside, please forgive me!"
Following her fingers, everyone looked over together. When they saw the pile of clothes clearly, Yu Jie's face turned pale with anger.
It was indeed the clothes that Qin Wanru had brought to the Xingguo Duke's Mansion. They were originally wrapped in packages, but at this time a few corners were torn apart and scattered around. The clothes and other things inside were also torn off. come out.
Everyone in the courtyard was cleaning. I don't know if it was because they thought it was Qin Yuru's clothes, but no one paid attention. The water from cleaning even got on it, making it look like a push of garbage.
The woman in charge saw something bad and hurried over. She didn't dare to open the package directly. She just stuffed the clothes that had fallen outside and said anxiously: "Miss Fifth, I don't know this is your thing." , fortunately it’s only a little wet now, everything inside should be fine and can still be used.”
After stuffing all the clothes inside, the woman in charge walked over with a sad face, carrying a few packages. Looking at her hands that seemed to be stained with some dirty water during cleaning, Yujie's face turned dark.
He reached out and took the package from the housekeeper's hand. He looked at the large black handprints on it and was so angry that he couldn't even speak.
No need to look, the clothes and other things inside are already stained.
"Don't you have any brains? When our lady came here yesterday, she said she wanted to move in." Yu Jie's face changed with anger.
Qin Wanru's eyes fell on the face of the woman in charge. Although her face was respectful and a bit panicked, her eyes were very flexible. At first glance, she knew she was a smart woman. Then she looked in the yard. The servants who were at a loss all over the courtyard curled their lips silently.
Sure enough, I'm waiting for you here.
"Where is the newly arranged courtyard?" Qin Wanru squinted her eyes, a hint of coldness slipping through her watery eyes.
"Yes, yes, I will take you there now!" Seeing that Qin Wanru no longer pursued the matter, the woman in charge said excitedly, and then led the way.
Qin Wanru turned around calmly and followed.
"Miss!" Yu Jie stamped her feet angrily. She felt that Qin Wanru should not be so generous as to let the woman in charge pass through.
"Go and take a rest first, I'm tired!" Qin Wanru reached out and touched her head, closing her eyes and said.
Seeing how weak she looked, Yujie didn't dare to make any more trouble. She hurriedly stretched out her hand to help her, and hurried to the inner courtyard behind the woman in charge.
It seems that the courtyard this time should not be the kind that leans against the doorway with hanging flowers.
She was also very curious about the other courtyard prepared for her by Mrs. Xingguo. After hearing this, it was not a guest courtyard. Is it because of Qin Yuru that she prepared the next courtyard early?
In her last life, she had heard that Qin Yuru's courtyard in the Xingguo Duke's Mansion was gorgeous and grand. It was said to be one of the main courtyards of the Xingguo Duke's Mansion. She didn't know if it was the same one where Qin Yuru lived in the previous life. If it was really that one, then she Know something!
