457. Chapter 457 Presiding over the overall situation
Early in the morning, Qing Wan had just finished washing her clothes. Before she could figure out how to arrange her schedule for the day, she saw Bai Tan opened the curtain and walked in: "Princess, someone from the Qing family is here. They say they have something important to see the princess."
.”
Since Bai Hua's accident, apart from Zisu and Daukou, the two maids brought over from the Qing family, only Bai Tan will serve Qing Wan most of the time. Bai Zhi and Bai Tong are either the ones waiting for her.
In the kitchen, or staying outside to help with some things in the yard. In short, I rarely take the initiative to run to the back room without Qingyuan's call.
When she suddenly heard that the Qing family was here, Qing Wan's eyebrows were filled with doubts. She had already given up on the current Qing family and no longer had any nostalgia. If possible, he really didn't want to be with the Qing family there.
No one is involved. But she also knows that as the eldest lady of the Qing family, there are some things that she can't avoid just because she doesn't want to.
With a stern eyebrow, Qing Wan thought quietly for a moment. She couldn't think of what would happen if the Qing family sent someone to look for her at this time. Then, she ordered Bai Tan who was waiting at the door: "Go and invite someone over."
The person who came was the housekeeper of the Qing family. As soon as he saw Qing Wan, he said hurriedly: "Miss, something big happened in the house. The master asked me to ask you to come back and take charge of the overall situation."
"What happened?" Qing Wan's eyebrows became even more confused.
After all, she is a married daughter, which is equivalent to an outsider. Even if something big happens to the Qing family, she will not be asked to come back and take charge of the overall situation.
The housekeeper said: "It's the second young lady. The second young lady committed suicide by hanging from a beam in her temple. The letter I came in early this morning said that the lady couldn't bear the stimulation and fainted on the spot. When she woke up, she started to become a little abnormal. She hugged her.
No one was allowed to touch the body of the second young lady, as if she was suffering from madness. The master had already rushed over after getting the news, and before leaving, he specially asked the old slave to invite the young lady back to discuss the funeral of the second young lady."
"What did you say?" Qing Wan couldn't help but be stunned when she heard the news.
After all, it was a human life. Although she and Qingrao had been at odds since childhood, and the other even wanted to kill her, they had lived under the same roof for such a long time. Now that they heard that the other had committed suicide, she couldn't accept it for a while.
.
Not to mention, most of the reason why the other party was imprisoned in the family temple was because of himself.
The housekeeper sighed and said solemnly: "Since the young lady got married, the third wife and the fourth wife have been pestering the master every day, wanting the power to run the house. The master has been so annoyed that he has not returned to the house for many days.
.I have been staying in Miss Yiyi's room in Yanliu Pavilion these days. Two days ago, I sent someone to send a message to the old slave, saying that I would redeem Miss Yiyi's life and marry her to be the fifth aunt of the Qing family. But at this time, I met two people.
The young lady committed suicide, and the master was in a bad mood. He was afraid that he had no intention of taking care of the funeral of the second young lady, and there was no one in charge of the backyard, so he thought of asking the eldest lady to go back and help."
Qing Wan pondered for a moment and said: "I have no control over this matter. After all, I have already married into the palace and am considered an outsider. It is not appropriate to go back and intervene in the affairs of the Qing family. However, I can give you a suggestion.
"
"Miss, please tell me." The housekeeper also knew that it would be inappropriate to ask the eldest daughter to handle this matter, but now, because he couldn't think of any other way, he listened to Master Qing and asked Qingwan to take charge of the overall situation.
After all, funerals are a major event, related to the reputation of a house and its future fortunes, and cannot be taken lightly.
