Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 428

Qin Cui immediately transformed herself into the most outstanding businessman and personally explained to the ladies the wonderful uses and benefits of various products, praising them to the highest standards possible.

Everyone was itching to try it, but because of Princess Huaye, who was standing by and sneering at them and as steady as a rock, they all restrained themselves from spending money.

Just at this moment, Lu Jiu walked in wearing a brocade robe and waving a folding fan.

They didn't feel it before because they were far away, but now that they were closer, everyone could truly feel Lu Jiu's immortal demeanor.

Especially Lu Jiu, who had a charming smile on his face and saluted everyone gently. His every move showed his extraordinary demeanor, which made people happy.

Although they were happy to see a pleasing person of the opposite sex, some people still questioned Qin Su dissatisfiedly: "Who is this person? Why can he come and go here at will?"

Qin Sui hurriedly explained, "His surname is Lu. He is my sworn brother and the other owner of this store."

Since he is the boss, it is hard to say that he is rude.

Lu Jiu stepped forward, pointed at a Buddha statue and began to introduce it in detail, taking over Qin Su's task. Qin Su then took a step back, sat down to drink tea, but her eyes were always on Princess Huaye.

Hua Ye brought so many people today, obviously looking for trouble, but now apart from verbal provocation and arrogant attitude, she did not do any substantial destructive behavior, which made Qin Sui unable to understand her true intention.

While he was thinking, he saw Hua Ye looking at Qin Sui. The two women looked at each other with complicated emotions.

"Mrs. Xiao, can you please talk to me for a moment?" Hua Ye suddenly spoke up and made a request that instantly silenced everyone in the room.

Everyone's eyes were on the two of them, but no one dared to speak.

Qin Sui stood up slowly, smiled and nodded, but Lu Jiu looked at her with some concern and shook his head slightly, meaning that he did not agree.

"Princess, please come this way." However, Qin Sui just signaled Lu Jiu with her eyes to rest assured, and then made an invitation to Hua Ye.

Hua Ye left first, and her maid followed naturally. However, Qin Sui followed alone, and before leaving, she winked at Lu Jiu: "Brother Jiu, you must treat these distinguished guests well!"

Lu Jiu immediately understood and nodded to show that he understood.

Turning around, Lu Jiu smiled at everyone as if in spring breeze. This stunning man who had been rolling around among flowers for years, coupled with the business experience in recent years, has become more calm and elegant. If he deliberately displayed some charm, the lady in front of him would probably not be able to resist.

In the side room, Qin Su and Princess Huaye sat down on either side. Qing Gu came in to serve tea, and then stood behind Qin Su, always alert to the movements on the opposite side.

"Princess Huaye and I don't know each other, let alone have any grudges against each other. I don't know why you are targeting me like this. I have always been puzzled by this matter. If you can solve my puzzle today, I will be very grateful."

Qin Sui spoke first and took control of the conversation.

As expected, Huaye continued along with Qin Sui's words: "I have never been against you, I just simply don't like you."

"I've always felt that the love, hate, and vengeance in this world are not without reason. Even if you really dislike someone on the street, it must be because there is something about him that you hate, and this disgusting thing is precisely the reason." Qin Su's words made Hua Ye fall into deep thought. When did she start to hate Qin Su?

Is this our first meeting?

That shouldn’t be the case. Before that, she already knew Qin Su and his wife. So why did she hate Qin Su?
It seemed that her husband Du Ziren once mentioned Xiao Chenyu, saying that he was a student from a poor family, but he was proud and unafraid of power, which was admirable.

Later, I heard that the couple was not greedy for power, but was trying to curry favor with Princess Yaoxiang. At the same time, they acted lofty towards the Du family. This was simply disgusting and despicable.

But was Du Ziren the only one who mentioned Xiao Chenyu? It seemed that there were always people around him who mentioned Xiao Chenyu and Qin Su intentionally or unintentionally, and of course they were not good things.

Even her younger sister Jiang Yue knew that Ma Hui, the manager of Qin Shi's shop, and Du Ziren were having an affair. She didn't know since when, the names of Xiao Chenyu and Qin Shi were everywhere around her.

Therefore, she disliked Qin Sui even before she met her in person.

"In fact, you don't understand me, you don't even know me, but why do you come to trouble me again and again, and even go to my house to cause trouble at the critical moment of receiving the diplomatic corps?"

Qin Sui smiled and said, "I don't know the whole story, but the princess is not a fool, she will definitely figure it out. It's not your fault that you didn't think of it before, but that no one has ever reminded you, and what you heard, did, thought and thought should be what someone wanted."

Huaye was not particularly smart, but he was not stupid either. After pondering over Qin Su's words for a while, he understood what she meant and asked, "You mean, I am being controlled by someone? What I heard was what others told me to hear, what I said was what someone wanted me to say, and what I did was what others wanted me to do?"

Qin Cui smiled but said nothing. For some things, others could just give a hint or two, but there was no need to respond to everything. It would be too blunt. Besides, Hua Ye would believe it more if she figured it out herself. She always had to question what others said.

"Why do I feel like what you said is trying to sow discord between me and them?" Hua Ye suddenly frowned and asked in a stern voice.

It's just that the confidence is a little insufficient.

Qin Sui knew that her goal had been achieved, and she did not want to say more. Instead, she said, "Princess Huaye is a smart person. For some things, you should not listen with your ears, but see with your eyes and think with your brain. What is good to you may not be really good, but sometimes the truth may be unpleasant to the ear, but it may be the true love for you."

"Does honest advice hurt the ear?" Hua Ye had seldom heard anything unpleasant to the ear. Her father doted on her. Her stepmother used to want to teach her, but later on, she stopped saying anything.

The two princesses in the capital, Huaye and Yaoxiang, are both special women. They are similar in age, appearance, and family power, but she thinks she lives a much better life than Yaoxiang.

Yaoxiang couldn't even get married, but Huaye married the most outstanding son of the Du family, the future Duke. It is no exaggeration to say that the power of the Du family is enormous.

Before she got married, she was admired by her close friends, but after she got married, she had even more flattery from other ladies.

Huaye's life was really good. Her husband's family treated her well and never set rules for her. They never asked her to serve her mother-in-law. She could go back to her parents' home whenever she wanted, and no one would say anything.

During the confinement, her mother-in-law sent people to ask about her well-being three times a day. She felt that even if her biological mother were still alive, it would not be more than this.

But now, someone suddenly told her that everything she had was an illusion.

How can this be?
