After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital

Chapter 289 Regret

In the Duke Xianguo's mansion, after listening to the maid's report about what her daughter did at the poetry meeting, Mrs. Xianguo's brows were so frowned that they could kill a fly.

“I don’t know whether to advance or retreat!”

Mrs. Xianguo casually threw a round fan on Qin Jingshu.

Qin Jingshu knelt on the ground and did not hide at all.

The round fan was light and fluttery, but the handle was extremely hard. It hit Qin Jingshu directly on the shoulder. Qin Jingshu was only six years old. She was hit so hard that she staggered and couldn't help but make a muffled sound.

"What are you pretending to be? I didn't hit you in the face!" Mrs. Xianguo said viciously.

Tears welled up in Qin Jingshu's eyes as she listened to her mother's barking and barking like a dog.

At this time, even the servants in the room were standing, but she was the only one kneeling.

Qin Jingshu couldn't understand. Her mother always said that her status was noble, her future was precious, and she should be careful about her words and deeds outside. So why did she always humiliate her like this?

Mrs. Xianguo watched the future queen kneel down with enjoyment, then waved back and said, "Are you thinking why I do this to you?"

Qin Jingshu raised her head when she heard this and looked at Mrs. Xianguo.

Mrs. Xianguo said lightly: "Those who have achieved great things throughout the ages have been able to endure hardships that ordinary people cannot bear. How much hardship have you endured now? Every day, you are well-dressed and well-fed, just to let you play less and do more useful things." Thing, look at you, you can’t even bear this, how can you become more than ten thousand people in the future?”

When Qin Jingshu heard this, her face was full of tangles.

But in the final analysis, she was only six years old, and she was the eldest daughter of the noble Xianguo Palace. She had not seen any real benefits of being a queen.

"Concubine Li in the palace is your aunt's sister. If the palace had not chosen her to become a maid that year, she won His Majesty's favor and became a concubine and took charge of the palace."

"She is already able to support her mother's clan even before she has the honor of being a mother in the world. Her younger sister married into our prince's family, and her younger brother has a successful official career and has now reached the third rank."

"Who is her brother? He is an incompetent man who relies on his sister to support him. Now he is worthy of serving as an official in the same court as your grandfather!"

"What is her original identity? The daughter of an ordinary member of the Guanglin Mansion. Even if they come to the door of our Duke's Mansion, who would be willing to pay attention to them? There are countless noble ladies in the palace. It is not good for His Majesty to fall in love with someone like this. Personally! The concubines in the harem who come from rich families are overpowered by her!"

When Mrs. Xianguo mentioned this, her eyes turned red with hatred, as if Concubine Li in the palace had robbed her of her position as concubine.

Qin Jingshu said: "But mother, whether she is aunt or the concubine in the palace, is very good to us..."

Mrs. Xianguo interrupted her daughter sternly: "Shut up! With her low status, if she hadn't been favored by the Holy Emperor, she wouldn't be qualified to take care of us! My father is a veteran cabinet minister, my mother comes from a wealthy family, and my grandfather deserves to enjoy the ancestral temple! If it weren't for fate, , I am a queen, so why should I beg for mercy?"

Qin Jingshu opened her eyes wide and looked at her mother in disbelief.

After Mrs. Xianguo said these words, she felt relaxed. Since her daughter had a tight mouth, there was no need to worry about her saying these outrageous remarks.

"Because my mother did not become the queen, you must let me take this path..." Qin Jingshu asked.

Mrs. Xianguo said: "You are my daughter. Although you are not as smart as me and your beauty is not as good as mine, I will do my best to support you and make your mother respected in the world.

"If Duke Xianguo raises you, you will naturally support your father and brother in the future, and your father and brother will in turn help you..."

Qin Jingshu could no longer hear her mother's words clearly. Her face was covered with tears. She had never realized so clearly at this moment that she was not a person, but just a tool for her mother to make up for her regrets and gain power.

Qin Jingshu's stomach was churning, and Qin Jingshu felt a wave of vomiting coming out of her belly.

"vomit!"

Qin Jingshu looked around, trying hard to find a container, but in the end she saw nothing. She staggered up and just opened the door to the room when she bent over and vomited.

Vomited all over the floor. At the entrance of the courtyard, Qin Jing, who had just arrived and was blocked by the maid and the mother-in-law, was so anxious that he lost all his usual demeanor when he saw this situation. He pushed away the woman who was blocking her and ran in.

"Jingshu!"

Qin Jingshu looked up and could only see her eldest brother's concerned eyes.

Mrs. Xian Guo, who was in the room, was also very anxious when she saw this change. She stood up in a hurry and walked to the door. When she saw the vomit on the ground and smelled the disgusting sour smell, she scolded: "Who allowed you to do this?" Eat these heavy fat things! You also eat so many cakes! Send away the maid I sent to serve you, you are so indulgent!"

Hearing this, Qin Jing looked up at her mother, and then gently patted her sister's back.

Qin Jingshu could no longer hear the scoldings in her ears. At this time, she just wanted to vomit out everything in her stomach.

"Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Do you still want to vomit?" Qin Jing asked softly.

I don't know how long it took, but Qin Jingshu finally stopped and raised her head, looking at her elder brother with pleading eyes.

Qin Jing immediately picked him up.

Mrs. Xian Guo quickly stopped her: "She is dirty. Don't dirty your clothes. I will ask my mother-in-law to come over..."

Mrs. Xianguo's voice gradually dropped, because Qin Jing was looking at her mother with an extremely unfamiliar look.

"How can a piece of clothing be more important than my sister?" After Qin Jing finished speaking, she strode out of the main courtyard with her sister in her arms.

A flash of panic flashed across Mrs. Xianguo's face, and she took a few steps forward, but accidentally stepped into the filth Qin Jingshu vomited.

"Oh, it's so dirty. Someone needs to come quickly and clean it up!"

Listening to Mrs. Xianguo's shouting, the servants on the side hurriedly stepped forward.

Mrs. Xianguo asked again: "Why is the eldest young master here? Who called him here?"

Greetings are usually given in the morning, and Qin Jing rarely comes to the main courtyard at this time.

Qin Jingshu's maid, on the other hand, replied in a low voice: "As for Madam, on the carriage back to the mansion, I secretly heard the lady inviting him to come to the main courtyard."

Mrs. Xianguo slapped the maid in the face with her backhand: "I knew it a long time ago, why are you reporting it now?"

The maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and kowtowed to admit her mistake.

"Useless thing! Someone dragged her down and sold her." Mrs. Xianguo said angrily.

Qin Jingshu nestled in Qin Jing's arms and was carried by him as she walked quickly toward the outer courtyard. On the way, she met Mrs. Li, the second roommate.

When Mrs. Li saw Qin Jingshu's pale face, her heart suddenly broke into pieces: "What's going on? Why is this so good? Didn't you just come back from the poetry festival?"

Qin Jing shook his head and said he didn't know.

Qin Jing's eldest son ran in quickly carrying an old doctor in his fifties.

"Doctor, please look at my daughter...what's wrong with my girl..." Mrs. Li bit her lip hard and almost spilled the words.

Hearing this, Qin Jing turned around and looked at Mrs. Li in surprise.
