Qin was not idle either. She had just coaxed Madam Jiang in Fu'an Hall, and then she returned to Chunhua Courtyard and sat down on the Huanghuali wood armchair and breathed a sigh of relief.

Danzhu hurriedly smiled and went to massage Qin's shoulders and legs.

The more Qin thought about it, the angrier she became. She slammed the tea table and said, "This old hag, why didn't she come back earlier or later but had to wait until my aunt's birthday to come back? What was she thinking? My aunt shouldn't have been soft-hearted and stayed..." Seeing that she was angry, Danzhu just did his work silently and dared not say a word.

"Madam, the third lady is here." Mei Qing's voice came from outside the door, and Qin stopped talking in time.

She looked around as if she had come back to her senses, and seeing that Danzhu was the only one in the room, she stroked her chest and let out a long sigh.

I don't know what's wrong with her, but she has become irritable recently, especially in the past few days. Sometimes she speaks without thinking and says anything casually...

Perhaps it was because the weather was getting hotter and people were becoming more restless, and her temper had also gotten worse.

Before she could catch her breath, the door opened with a whoosh, and Jiang Yin walked in: "Mother, look, is my face much better? I put on some powder today, and the red marks on my face are no longer visible!" Jiang Yin said excitedly, putting her face in front of Qin.

Qin hid her annoyance and glanced at her perfunctorily, her face still full of kindness: "Well, you have recovered well, so you will no longer blame your mother, right?"

When Jiang Yin heard her say this, she knew she was angry.

A few days ago, because of the acne scars on her face, she was in a hurry to attend Madam Jiang's birthday banquet. She complained several times that her mother had not found the skin-regenerating ointment for her. What she said was indeed a bit harsh.

She shook Qin's arm, pushed Danzhu aside, took Danzhu's place, and continued to massage Qin's shoulders and legs, saying coquettishly, "Mother, it's all because of Yin'er's impatience that she speaks so recklessly. Yin'er will massage your legs and back, so please don't be angry with your daughter, okay?"

Danzhu was caught off guard and was pushed by her, staggering and almost falling to the ground. Fortunately, the little maid behind her helped her up, and she was able to stand firmly.

She hid her anger and stood aside respectfully with her head bowed. She was a servant, and even if Jiang Yin wanted her life, she had to give it to him, not to mention that he just pushed her.

Seeing her apologize to her so softly, Qin Shi finally stopped being angry with her. After all, she was Jiaojiao whom she had loved for more than ten years. How could there be any real hatred between mother and daughter?

She raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Yin, who looked 70% like her. Seeing that Jiang Yin's face had indeed regained its former beauty, she felt more and more that her decision to recontact Yun Lang was the right one.

If it weren't for Yunlang's help, how could Yin'er, a woman, get such a high-quality medicine to treat the scar on her face?

Are you waiting for Jiang Zhou? Thinking of Jiang Zhou, her heart sank again.

In recent days, Jiang Zhou has returned home every day and has come to Chunhua Courtyard to accompany them for meals. However, he still did not stay overnight.

Although she also understood that Jiang Zhou was busy with official duties and that he might not be able to handle some things due to his age, but... it was not necessary for him not to stay at Chunhua Courtyard for so many days, right?

No matter how she thought about it, she felt something was wrong. After the birthday banquet tomorrow, she would definitely take some time to investigate...

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Jiang Yin thought she was still angry with her, so she lifted her skirt and squatted in front of Qin, holding Qin's knees with both hands and shaking them: "Mother, are you still blaming Yin'er? You..."

Qin's thoughts were interrupted by her, and she reached out her hand to gently touch Jiang Yin's eyes, and said softly: "How could mother blame you? You are my sweetheart. Even if I have another child, you are still the one I love the most. When you become the wife of the prince of Ningyang Marquis's mansion in the future, we three will be our own support."

When Jiang Yin heard Qin mention the position of the wife of the prince of Ningyang Marquis's mansion, she smiled even more. She hugged Qin's arms, put her face in Qin's hands, and said coquettishly, "Mother is right. If I can enter Ningyang Marquis's mansion in the future, I will never forget you, mother, and I will definitely pave the way for my brother's future and help him soar to the sky."

Mothers know their children best, and children naturally know their mothers. Jiang Yin's words touched Qin's heart. Qin patted Jiang Yin's back gently, smiling with satisfaction.

What Qin hated most in her life, apart from Wu Qingrong who stole her position as the Duke's wife, and Jiang Luo, the illegitimate child born by Wu Qingrong, was that no one in the Qin family could hold a high position.

Even though she abandoned herself and her beloved and tied her brother Qin Yu to the Duke's Mansion's big ship, he still didn't do anything.

If the Qin family could stand up, she wouldn't have to fight with that bitch Liu under the title of a legitimate Duke's wife.

If it weren't for the fact that Madam Jiang also had the last name Qin, she had always been pleasing to the old lady, and she and Jiang Zhou were childhood sweethearts, it would be unclear whether the position of the Duke's wife was solid or hollow!

"With what you said, mother has nothing to worry about. Tomorrow is your grandmother's birthday party. Can you try on the new clothes and jewelry made in the mansion? Do you like them?" Qin pulled Jiang Yin up from her lap and let her sit on a round stool beside her.

Jiang Yin nodded: "My daughter has tried it on, and it fits her perfectly. It is the color and style she likes, and the jewelry is exquisite..."

Qin's mother and daughter were busy preparing clothes and jewelry for the next day, thinking that they would make a big splash tomorrow when there were many people around, which would also help dispel the gloom of the past few days.

Second Madam Liu was directing all the maids and servants in Qiu Shui Courtyard, working hard for tomorrow's birthday banquet.

Jiang Miao came back early, which was rare. He was now in Fu'an Hall with Jiang An, chatting with Old Madam Jiang.

In his heart, Madam Jiang treated him and Jiang Zhou equally. Even though the title was given to Jiang Zhou, the business in the mansion was given to him.

Not only that, Madam Jiang also took the trouble to marry Liu, the daughter of a scholarly family, and never interfered with his bedroom affairs. This was also the reason why the two brothers could live in harmony.

It was time for dinner, and the maids and servants in each room began to get busy again.

Jiang Chen's Xiangyun Courtyard was still very quiet. Although the maids were busy, they did not dare to make loud noises. This has been the rule in Xiangyun Courtyard.

Since the fourth young lady fell into the water, she was so weak that she looked like she was going to die at any moment. But she didn't dare to make a sound and scare this person, otherwise, the second lady would kill her.

Even though no one came to disturb her, Jiang Chen's heart was more tormented and nervous than ever.

After all, tomorrow is the birthday party.

She has been preparing for so long, it's time to close the net.

This is what Jiang Yin owes her.
