Chapter 38: Suspicion

The weather was nice the next day. Ms. Qin got up early. She sat in front of the dressing mirror and watched Li Zhi combing her hair. She opened the jewelry box and picked out a plum blossom gemstone gold hairpin.

"I will plant this branch today because it is brighter. I shouldn't plant those plain white jade hairpins every day."

"Yes." Lychee agreed with a smile, inserted the plum blossom gold hairpin between her buns, and said softly: "Madam should have thought this way. Look at the person in the mirror, how beautiful she is."

"No matter how beautiful she is, so what? If a woman doesn't get her husband's favor, she's just admiring herself."

Mrs. Qin sighed. She didn't expect that her master, who was in high spirits just now, would now feel sad again, so he said sadly: "I just don't agree with you, grandma, that's all. She and I are childhood sweethearts, and they have been in love since childhood; but for others,

Among the aunts, except Aunt Xin, which one can compare with your appearance? Even Aunt Xin is just as equal as Madam, why do you dote on her like that? Is it just because she has been guarding Qingliang Pavilion for several years and is playing hard to get?

?”

"That's enough. If others hear it, they will think that I am jealous of my sister." Mrs. Qin said lightly: "As everyone knows, everything in the world has its own fate. Even if I am as beautiful as a fairy and have no fate with you, he just doesn't like me.

Besides, I’m not that beautiful.”

After saying that, he smiled and said: "After all these years, what can't I see? Although I don't have the favor of my father, it's good to have a capable and sassy sister now. She's not as lonely as before, which is good."

Then he said sadly: "It's just that I'm afraid that getting too close to her will hurt her. The princess must be annoyed with her in her heart."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "Let me see, if Aunt Xin cared about the attitude of the princess and grandma, she would not accept the hot potato given by me. Besides, when Qian'er was in the Qingliang Courtyard, the princess and Aunt Xin almost had a falling out.

Madam, what else do you have to worry about?"

The master and servant were talking, and Mrs. Qin had dressed up. At this time, she heard someone reporting from outside: "Aunt Gu is here."

Qin's body stiffened, and then she said slowly: "Let her come in."

After a while, Aunt Gu walked in alone. As soon as she crossed the threshold, she knelt down with a plop, knocked her head to the ground, and cried bitterly: "My concubine is guilty, please punish me."

"I've already told Sister Xin that I won't punish you, so that you won't have a hard time in the future."

Mrs. Qin said calmly: "Get up. Sister Xin is here with me and has said a lot of good things for you. I also know that you have no choice but to harm me. There are other people who want to harm me. So I will give you a chance this time. I hope you can

If you can change your ways, if you do such stupid things again in the future, I won't forgive you."

"Yes. Madam's great kindness and virtue, I will deeply appreciate it."

"I have already said that it was Sister Xin who interceded for you. If you want to thank her, you should thank her properly."

Mrs. Qin still had her usual gentle voice, and then she said to Li Zhi: "Go get some water and wash your face for Aunt Gu. If someone sees her like this, they will think I have bullied her."

Aunt Gu thanked Mrs. Qin again, washed her face in the basin, and was wiping it with a hand towel when she heard another report from outside: "Grandma and several aunts have come to pay their respects to Madam."

Several people in the room were startled. Mrs. Qin laughed at herself and said, "The sun is really coming out in the west. Why do you think that I am your wife today? Well, in that case, let's meet them all."

After saying that, she stood up. Aunt Gu hurriedly rushed over to help her, but Mrs. Qin shook her head and said, "What do you think, grandma, of you? For the sake of peace in the future, it's better not to get close to me. If you have any trouble in the future, just go and find her."

Aunt Xin, after this incident, you should know what is good and what is good, and understand who can be trusted and who cannot be relied on."

Aunt Gu didn't expect Qin to let her go so easily and to think of it for her sake. She felt so grateful and shed tears again. She quickly wiped it with a handkerchief and followed Qin out.

At that time, Mrs. Liao and others were waiting in the main hall. When they saw Aunt Gu, Aunt Feng and Aunt Qiu behind Mrs. Qin, they couldn't help but be startled. Only Xin Nian knew better, and glanced at Mrs. Liao as if inadvertently. Sure enough,

Her face darkened, but she recovered quickly.

"The weather is nice today, so I came to see my sister. I just said that we came early, but unexpectedly Aunt Gu arrived earlier than us. When did you care about Madam like this?"

Xin Nian was not the only one to notice the changes in Mrs. Liao. As soon as Aunt Qiu sat down, she spoke with a smile. With Mrs. Liao's support, her words were almost sarcastic and sarcastic.

Mrs. Qin was a little annoyed. Aunt Qiu seemed to think too little of her, so she glanced at her and said lightly: "Speak carefully, don't you come here just to care about me? Why are you here?"

Aunt Qiu was so choked that she couldn't speak. She was secretly surprised in her heart. She didn't know what medicine the madam, who had always been weak, took wrongly. Grandma was still here. How could she dare to choke herself?

Mrs. Liao also noticed the change in Mrs. Qin, and the hatred in her eyes flashed away, but she smiled on her face and said: "We are all here to pay our respects to my sister, so naturally we care about you, but I didn't expect Aunt Gu to be better than us in this aspect."

If you do a good job, everyone should learn from her in the future."

Aunt Gu was so angry that her face turned red and she turned pale again. She glanced at Aunt Qiu and saw a proud look on her face. It was obvious that she said that deliberately in order to provoke discord between herself and Mr. Liao. At this moment

Sure enough, she got her wish.

Xin Nian held the tea cup and silently observed the undercurrents in the small hall, thinking: It's a pity that there is only Aunt Qiu, why doesn't Aunt Feng speak? It's still not enough. Although Liao is mean, she is not an idiot. Now

I just got suspicious, and to make her really hysterical, and to get rid of Aunt Gu quickly, I have to add more firewood, that's all, I can only do this myself, Aunt Qiu and Aunt Feng are not enough.

While she was thinking silently, Aunt Feng finally joined the battle group, talking to Aunt Qiu, and pointed the finger at Aunt Gu. Aunt Gu barely argued a few words, but the more she thought about it, the more discouraged she became, and finally she just shut down.

Open your mouth and let them speak.

Seeing Aunt Gu's tendency to break jars and smash them, Xin Nian raised his eyebrows and said secretly: This person's temperament is pretty much the same.

Yin put down the tea cup and said leisurely: "What are you two sisters doing? Madam is still here, you are talking loudly like this, and you are not afraid of making madam a headache. Sister Gu just came a little early, is this a big sin?

?I want you to insinuate and criticize Sang Huai here to exclude her."

"What are you saying, Sister Xin? We praise Aunt Gu for her gentleness and considerateness. How can we criticize her? You can't blame us."

Aunt Qiu immediately changed her focus. As soon as she finished her words, Mrs. Qin said coldly: "That's enough. You came here to pay my respects, and now you have seen that I am fine. Then please go back. Go back to Sister Liao's."

In the house, you can make as much noise as you want. She is more patient than me, and she is stronger than me, so she won't get a headache from being annoyed."
