Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 167 Seduction (2) (two updates in one)

Mrs. Qiutai snorted: "She is really my daughter Xiao Niang! Your mother colluded with the bandits, you are better. The person who has made an engagement actually wants to seduce others, it depends on whether you can seduce them or not. Isn't that right? Who is Prince Pan? The Queen's nephew and the future British Duke, are you worthy of it? I'll stop you and let you reflect. You actually came out and spoke so shamelessly, so disrespectful to you. Of course, I'm afraid the Queen would not be happy to be a maid for Prince Pan."

Qiu Yanran's face turned red: "I just want to do something for my eldest brother. Pan Shizi likes horse racing, and I happen to be good at riding. What's wrong with competing together? There are many women from aristocratic families in Beijing who know how to ride horses. I heard that when the emperor goes hunting twice every year in spring and autumn, all the ministers who follow him are accompanied by women. Don't they follow the rules? Grandma, you are also the imperial wife. Is it a rule to keep seducing? I'm engaged, so it doesn't matter. No one wants my cousin Qiaoqiao yet."

Qiu Yanran is now willing to take risks, because she understands that in order not to offend the Ding family, no matter how much trouble she makes, her grandmother will not dare to do anything to her.From a certain point of view, the Ding family's marriage is now what she relies on, just like her grandmother believes that she dare not really seek death.This grandmother has always treated her like nothing, and now that her mother no longer protects her, who else will think about her besides herself?
With a "pop" sound, a teacup blossomed at Qiu Yanran's feet. Mrs. Qiu pointed at Qiu Yanran, trembling with anger, but she couldn't say a word, she was so angry!Ever since she married into the Qiu family, and had been the Madam, Old Madam, and Grand Madam for decades, no one had dared to refute her, let alone slap her in the face like this.

"Nie Zhan, kneel down!" Lord Qiu shouted, but his momentum didn't seem to be that strong.By the way, although he was extremely angry with Ji and wished he could divorce her, his mother's words about his daughter, seducing her one by one, really did not take him seriously. After all, Yan'er is also her mother's. Granddaughter!
Besides, he was really unwilling to accept the Ding family's marriage. It was disgraceful to sell his only legitimate daughter to a fool, wasn't it?Despite all the helplessness.

Furthermore, Yanran's idea may not work, because Pan Jiaming is an ignorant and ignorant dude. They all say that his favorite thing is horse racing, and Yanran is really good at horse racing. It can be said that they have similar interests. Moreover, Yanran is also beautiful.As long as Yanran can really seduce Pan Jiaming and insist on marrying her, can the queen be able to resist?After all, she is a girl from a good family, and she is a legitimate daughter of the Hou family. The Queen cannot suppress her indiscriminately, right?This is a completely different concept from being coaxed into moving to a hotel room.

Even if the Queen and the British Duke really care about Ji's reputation and Yanran's engagement, it's better to be an equal wife than to take advantage of that fool from the Ding family, right?No matter how powerful the Ding family is, can they compare to the Queen and the British Duke?

Qiu Yiran had obviously thought of this, and stepped forward to comfort Mrs. Qiu, who was still breathing heavily: "Grandma, calm down, Yan'er is still young and can't speak without restraint. Don't argue with her. Yan'er, brother knows. You are anxious for your elder brother, but grandma bans you for your own good. You should apologize to grandma and go back as soon as possible. There are still a few days. As for the horse race, father and I will discuss it first and then decide."

Qiu Yanran was not stupid. From the tone of her father and eldest brother's tone, she knew that their hearts were moved. She stopped entangled with Mrs. Qiu and knelt down and said, "Grandma, it was Yan'er who was impulsive. Yan'er will go back and continue to be grounded." After saying that, she stood up and left without waiting for Mrs. Qiuta to ask her to stand up.

Mrs. Qiu Tai's hand pointing at her back was still trembling: "Look! Look! Is she admitting her mistake?" Ever since she committed suicide that time, Qiu Yanran has changed her temper. She doesn't cry or make trouble. It was a strange day, and they almost knocked away Aunt Xiu's child without saying a word. Fortunately, they were just an aunt and a concubine, so they didn't care much.

For some reason, Qiu Yanran like this frightened her even more than those previous commotions. She was so secretive that she would suddenly do something unexpected at some point.

Qiu Yiran sighed: "Grandma has also seen it. Yan'er has broken up with us. Yan'er is also very pampered and has never been a soft-tempered person. It was normal for her to be so noisy before, but now..., alas !”

Mrs. Qiutai shuddered, and sternly said with obvious lack of confidence: "What dares she do? If she has the ability, she will die!"

Qiu Laohou frowned, and there was a trace of indescribable complex emotions in his eyes. Was it just because of Ji's embarrassing reputation that his mother hated his legitimate daughter so much?Or is it because among the three Yi'er siblings, only Yi'er was brought up by his mother as soon as he was born, so the mother only regards Yi'er as her grandson?

"Grandma, you still don't understand Yan'er. She has had a fierce temper since she was a child, and she has never been willing to suffer. She is just afraid. It's not that she doesn't dare to die, but she thinks that since she is going to die, she should take a few more people to support her. She even pulled the entire Qingyuan Hou family to die with her. You see, she suddenly attacked Ruxiu without any warning." Qiu Yiran was also a little surprised and couldn't help but threaten Mrs. Qiu.No matter what, Qiu Yanran is his biological sister.In fact, what he wanted to say when the Ding family proposed marriage was that his cousin was not good-looking and had no merit, and his grandmother wanted her to marry high, so marrying into the Ding family was a good choice.If Yanran could really make Pan Jiaming fall in love, then the Ding family wouldn't dare to break off the engagement, and at worst, let Ke Qiaoqiao marry her.

Mrs. Qiu Tai collapsed on the floor. Thinking of Qiu Yanran's words just now, as well as her cold eyes and nonchalant attitude after knocking Ruxiu down, she really didn't feel that Qiu Yiran was scaring her.The only thing she could think of at this moment was to keep her precious granddaughter away from Qiu Yanran.

After Qiu Yiran and Mr. Qiu talked for an hour in the study, they quickly made a decision, and the task of making a new riding outfit for Qiu Yanran was naturally handed over to Aunt Xiu, who was still in confinement. There's no one else here who can surpass her in sewing skills, right?What's more, Qiu Yanran also asked her to do it.

The embroidered aunt looked at the gorgeous fabrics that were delivered and listened to the news that the maid had found out. Her eyes were red with anger.What a Qiu Yanran, who almost killed two people, but still dared to instruct her to do work?Don’t you know that women shouldn’t use scissors for needlework during confinement?

Seducing the queen's nephew?Nonsence!It's really shameless to have a daughter who is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's family and a daughter of a wealthy family!Huh, that's the fate of marrying a fool!
When Qiu Yiran came over, Aunt Xiu, who was wearing a windshield wiper on her forehead, was cutting clothing materials, and the scissors were wrapped with strips of cloth.

Qiu Yiran said softly: "Thank you for your hard work! Yan'er only values ​​your skills, and Yan'er is the only one in our house who is good at riding horses."

Ruxiu snorted secretly, but when she raised her eyes, she was docile and considerate: "You are so polite. The second girl is my direct sister. Isn't it right for me to make a few clothes for a girl? Besides, the second girl makes friends through horse racing. Pan Shizi is also doing it for me and the Hou Mansion, so I cannot do more for the second girl, so I can still do my best for me."

Qiu Yiran's smile became even warmer: "I know that my Xiu'er cares about me the most and knows the general situation best. If Yan'er can marry into the Pan family, our Qingyuan Hou Mansion will be able to rise to the top with the help of the Queen. , At that time, Xiuer, you also contributed a lot. Hahahaha, you are busy first, I will go out to take care of things." Qiu Yiran laughed and walked out, Aunt Xiu's charming smile turned dark instantly, and her nails were pricked The palms of my hands hurt: Bah, you deserve a lot of credit?She is not rare!There is no good person in this Qiu family. Qiu Yanran almost killed their mother and daughter. The dead old woman kept upholding justice for her, but in the end she punished Qiu Yanran with a month's grounding.And Qiu Yiran finally came here because she was worried that she wouldn't be willing to make clothes for Qiu Yanran, right?From the moment he entered the house to the time he left, he didn't even look at his daughter, didn't mention her, and didn't even care about her health.By the way, her daughter has not been named yet, only the nickname she casually called Niuniu.

Huh, she has never been someone who is willing to make wedding clothes for others. She helps Qiu Yanran marry into the Pan family and becomes the princess's wife in the future, and then humiliates her and torments her again?Unless she's out of her mind!
Qingyuan Hou Mansion skyrocketed?No, it's not necessary. It would be detrimental to her and Niu Niu if it was too good. Just enough would be enough. She still has room to make plans.As long as Qiu Yiran is still the Marquis, as long as she hides more private money, as long as she can grasp the weaknesses and temperaments of Qiu Yiran, Mrs. Qiu, and even the Xu family who is about to enter the house, she can make a living for herself in this mansion. Seek the greatest benefit with Niuniu.Anyway, she has already injured her body and is unlikely to be pregnant again. Even if the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion gets more successes, such as reviving the Qiu family and continuing to inherit the title, what will it do to her?

When Aunt Xiu threw the scissors to the maid, Qiu Yanran was proudly putting a gold and jade bracelet on her wrist. The brilliance of gold and jade made her smooth, delicate wrist even whiter and softer.

The eldest maid Cai Xiu who was waiting on the side smiled and praised: "The girl is so beautiful, and this bracelet suits her so well! This is how you should be, girl, live happily for yourself. If others don't feel sorry for you, you should also feel sorry for yourself, right?" ?”

Qiu Yanran nodded: "Isn't it? Thanks to Cai Xiu, you made me understand this truth. Those who are seeking death and survival are treating themselves badly, and others don't care at all. Now I just want to fight for good things and a good life for myself. I am living a good life. Look at how I treat those who harmed me. If I don’t live well, none of them will have a better life. The worst is possible!”

Cai Xiu was so excited that her eyes filled with tears: "Yeah, it's great if the girl can figure it out! When I saw the girl for the first time, I knew that you are a blessed person and a loving and righteous master. It's a blessing to be able to follow you." What a blessing. If it weren't for you, miss, I would still be a third-class cleaning maid."

Qiu Yanran also patted Cai Xiu's hand in a rare emotional way: "Don't worry, you are so loyal to me, I will not treat you badly. As long as you don't betray me like Chuntao, you will be the number one around me from now on." Chuntao originally She was her personal maid. A month ago, at Cai Xiu's reminder, she discovered that Chuntao had been bribed by Ru Xiu and became her grandmother and Ru Xiu's eyes and ears around her.In a rage, she "accidentally" bumped into Ruqiu, who was unable to dodge, and punished Chuntao for not reminding her that there was someone in front of her and sold her immediately.

"My servant will never betray you," Cai Xiu almost swore, "But, girl, why do you think of going... uh... to get to know that British prince? Don't they all say he is a dandy?"

Qiu Yanran curled her lips: "What kind of dandy is not a dandy? Prince Pan has that kind of capital, and he doesn't need to get the first prize in literature and martial arts. What can he do if he is not running horses or having fun? What about being a dandy? Those who are not a dandy can find out. Will the gold mine make great contributions to the emperor and the court? Can it be reused by the emperor? Can it inherit the British Dukeship?"

Caixiu's eyes were full of envy and adoration: "That's right. Girl, you are smart and think clearly."

Qiu Yanran raised her chin proudly: "I heard my elder brother's words at the door and made a decision immediately. I know that this is my best opportunity. If I seize it, I can turn over. If I can't seize it, Maybe I really have to marry into the Ding family." By marrying into the Ding family, even if Caixiu said that as long as she has the means, she can live very proudly and avenge the old lady and all the people who made her unhappy, but after all, she is Are you wronging yourself?Of course, before Caixiu enlightened her, apart from crying, making trouble, and hanging herself, she had no other choice but to marry into the Qiu family because she didn't have the courage to really die.

******************************
When Pan Jiaming and his party arrived in Luocheng, they did not stay at the inn, nor did they accept Li Shoubei's invitation to live in the garrison mansion. Instead, they stayed at the villa of Marshal Xu's mansion in Luocheng. Everyone knew that Marshal Xu's youngest son Xu Ziqi was Pan Jiaming's best friend.

Li Shoubei smiled and shook his head and said: "Empress De Fei specially sent a letter, asking me to clean up the best yard and take good care of my nephew."

Pan Jiaming said with a smile on his face: "This is what I'm afraid of. If Uncle Li Shi knows about sneezing, can't we let the Empress and Concubine know about it? It's hard to get out of the capital, so the Empress will have less to worry about, right? Living in Xujiazhuangzi, firstly, I am free, and secondly, it is cheaper for Xu Ziqi and others to come and see me."

Li Shoubei also laughed and said: "So my nephew is worried about me snitching? Can I say that I am actually very tight-lipped."

This sentence made Pan Jiaming and the officials who came to pick him up laugh. The atmosphere was great.

It is said that Pan Shizi is a dandy from an aristocratic family who has no knowledge and only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. However, Governor Lin has a very fond impression of Pan Jiaming. How could Pan Jiaming, a lucky boy, discover a gold mine just by visiting Luo City?It is said that it is also a large gold mine with a very rich gold content.

I heard that the imperial envoy sent by the emperor to Luocheng was Pan Shizi. Magistrate Lin really wanted to invite Pan Shizi to live in the prefecture. However, he was also a well-informed person and knew that the queen had a good relationship with Concubine De. Li Shoubei was the The younger brother of Empress Dowager De, must have already made arrangements at the garrison mansion.But I didn't expect that Pan Shizi would not live in the garrison mansion in order to escape the control of his aunt, the Queen. Well, he was really a spoiled child!
