Qin's words were very pleasing to the ear and indeed pleased Ningyang Marquis' wife Qi.

She put away the contempt on her face, revealed a faint smile, and waved to Yu's mother behind her.

Yu Mama, who was standing behind Qi, understood what she meant and walked forward slowly and bowed: "The wife of the Marquis of Ningyang, along with the Prince of Ningyang and the Princess of Jiayang, are here to celebrate the birthday of the old lady of the Duke of Zhenguo." After that, she handed the rosewood box in her hand to Old Madam Jiang.

Mother Qin hurried forward to return the gift, then accepted it with a flattering smile. However, she did not hand it to the maid behind her. Instead, she took it herself and went to the small room separated by a green gauze kitchen behind the flower hall.

The birthday celebrations have been held and the guests have been paid their respects. It would seem a bit inappropriate for Ling Xun to stay here any longer.

He was also self-aware. After taking a deep look at Jiang Luo who was sitting in the corner, he immediately bowed and said, "Mother, Old Madam, Madam, Ling Xun will take his leave first."

Just this one glance happened to be seen clearly by Jiang Yin who was standing opposite.

Jiang Yin's heart was also pulled up by his glance. Just like the handkerchief in her hand, it was wrinkled and she couldn't help herself.

Qin was very satisfied with Ling Xun and smiled with stars in her eyes: "You are too polite, my lord. You have been busy for so long, go to the main hall and have a cup of tea and take a rest."

Then he ordered outside the door: "Come here, lead the way for the prince."

Ling Xun nodded and looked up at Qi again.

Qi glanced at Qin, who had interrupted her, with disdain, and then waved her hand at him: "Go away, this is not the place for you to stay."

"Yes, mother." Ling Xun opened the folding fan in his hand with a swish and walked away gracefully.

Jiang Yin stared at the receding figure reluctantly until it disappeared. Then she withdrew her gaze and glared at Jiang Luo opposite her.

She was already unhappy, and when she saw Jiang Luo and Xie Qing talking and laughing, the bright smiles made her even more unhappy, and she couldn't help but feel irritated.

I really want to kill someone!

Bitch!

She doesn't usually dress so eye-catchingly. She's dressed like a vixen, and I don't know who she's trying to seduce.

snort!

"Luo'er, why don't you come over and pay your respects to the wife of the Marquis of Ningyang. Although you have been at the farm for five years and have been back home for some time, why don't you understand these rules?" Qin suddenly asked.

As she asked the question, everyone turned their attention to Jiang Luo. The lady who had never seen Jiang Luo's face was immediately brightened.

My goodness, there is a huge gap between this young lady's appearance and her reputation.

What a pity! What a pity! Its reputation has been largely ruined.

As for the eyes of those young ladies, most of them were filled with jealousy.

Jiang Luo frowned slightly under the scrutiny of everyone. Is he deliberately looking for trouble?

Princess Jiayang also glanced at Jiang Luo Leng and laughed, "A rotten tree cannot be carved. Some people may not understand the good intentions of the Duke's wife, so don't waste your thoughts."

Dare to go against her and make her embarrassed, haha...

Jiang Luo, you're done!

Upon hearing this, Qin sighed helplessly, "Oh..." The two of them seemed to have discussed it in advance and cooperated very well.

Xie Qing glared at Jiayang County Lady, then turned to look at Jiang Luo: "Sister Luo..."

Jiang Luo gave her a soothing look, indicating that she was fine. Then he stood up and walked to Qin under everyone's gaze: "Mother, you may have arrived too late and didn't see it. When the wife of the Ningyang Marquis arrived, your daughter had already stepped forward to greet her. But you are the elder, and the Marquis's wife is also an elder, so it's okay for me to greet her again." After saying this, he immediately bowed respectfully to Qi.

The wife of the Marquis of Ningyang is here, but you, as the wife of the Duke, are late. Isn’t this treating the distinguished guest badly?

Or is it that you, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, don’t take the Ningyang Marquis’ Mansion seriously at all?

It's fine that you came late, but there's no capable subordinates arranged by your Qin family to watch over this small flower hall? It can be seen that your family is really not that good.

If someone was watching, you would have known what happened in the flower hall long ago.

Since he knew this and still did this, wasn't he just taking advantage of his status as an elder to deliberately oppress her, the original legitimate daughter?

In short, every road is blocked.

I almost shouted out loud: You, Qin, are deliberately targeting me, the original wife's daughter!

Qin didn't expect her to say that, nor did she expect her to be so eloquent, and her face immediately turned a little unhappy.

Now Qi is in a dilemma, neither accepting nor rejecting.

Just accept it. It seemed as if Qin was instructed by her to say these words deliberately to suppress her future daughter-in-law.

If she didn't accept it, she would admit what Jiang Luo said, which would be a slap in her face. Her daughter, Princess Jiayang, had just said that.

Thinking of this, she glanced at Qin beside her with annoyance.

If you are stupid, just talk less!

Seeing that her mother and Qi both looked unhappy, Jiang Yin knew that what Jiang Luo said must not be good.

She immediately asked angrily, "Big sister, how can you say that about mother? Mother went to the gate early in the morning to welcome the distinguished guests from various mansions, and she only returned to the flower hall now. As soon as she arrived at the flower hall, she thought about you and wanted you to show your face in front of the wife of Ningyang Marquis, but you are like this... Hey..."

When everyone heard this, they all agreed that this made sense.

The wife of the Ningyang Marquis is Miss Jiang's future mother-in-law, so she has to show her face in front of her mother-in-law more often to please her before entering the mansion.

It seems that Qin's reputation for being virtuous and kind is not false.

Miss Jiang is a kind-hearted lady who understands the good intentions of her elders. It would be a great blessing if she could be married to my family.

But Xie Qing was not happy.

When Princess Jiayang spoke just now, if Sister Luo hadn't stopped her, she would have wanted to stand up and retort.

Now that Jiang Yin is here, she is even less afraid.

"Miss Jiang's ability to confuse right and wrong is something she has mastered to perfection. I am okay in other aspects except my tongue, which is not as good as your ability to speak in a sarcastic way. May I ask who Miss Jiang's master is? It would be so nice for me to know so that I can go and become her apprentice and learn from her." Xie Qing said this with a hint of sarcasm, not giving Jiang Yin a chance to talk back.

The lady present was fine, she was quite experienced.

As for those young ladies with less experience, they could no longer hold back and faint laughter could be heard.

Lord Xie and Madam Xie are always taciturn, but this young lady from the Xie family is really interesting!

Jiang Yin was immediately furious.

She pointed at Xie Qing and said, "You... Miss Xie, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. This is our Duke's Mansion's business, what does it have to do with you?"

"Hehe... It's true that I'm an outsider, but I know that Sister Luo is not the person you say she is. If you weren't so aggressive, would I, an outsider, stand up for Sister Luo?" Xie Qing asked back.

Jiang Yin was so angry that she didn't know how to answer for a moment, she just pointed at Xie Qing: "You you you..."

Qin Ying'er was not idle either.
