The blacksmith lady is killing people in the harem, and her son is responsible for it.
Chapter 13 Choose a good day to enter
Madam Hou patted Song Zhirou's back again and again, "Rou'er, Dalang is already married. If you still want to be with him, you can only be a concubine."
Song Zhirou broke free from Madam Hou's arms and said with a sad face, "Aunt, you know my feelings. I must be with my cousin in this life. If I can't be with my cousin, I would rather shave my hair and become a nun."
When the Marquis heard her niece say this, she immediately frowned and said, "Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about? Yesterday your uncle told me to ask for your opinion. If you agree, I will choose a date for you to enter the family as a concubine."
Song Zhirou's face flushed, "Aunt, I will listen to you."
After saying that, he lowered his head shyly.
The Marquis's wife was very happy. "Okay, okay, as long as you agree, even though you are a concubine, your aunt will definitely make your marriage a grand one."
Song Zhirou nodded obediently, "Okay, thank you aunt."
The Marquis’s wife is happy now. No matter how good a niece is, she is still a niece, not her biological son.
She never thought that her eldest son only had his niece as his wife.
Song Zhirou appeared to be happy on the surface, but she was actually dissatisfied in her heart. If her uncle had not disagreed, how could Qin have come between her and her cousin?
The Marquis's wife didn't notice her niece's strange behavior. "Madame Xu, go get the desk calendar. I need to choose a good day."
Madam Xu replied cheerfully, "Yes, I'll go right away."
Aunt Xu was from the Song family, so naturally she was nicer to Song Zhirou.
Qin Wan didn't know anything about the main courtyard. After she woke up, she saw the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone that Caihuan had brought back, and she was very satisfied.
"Caihuan, you did a good job."
Caihuan thought Qin Wan would reward her, but she found out that Qin Wan was just talking.
Qin Wan was very poor, so how could she spend money to reward two servants who had ulterior motives?
It was obvious that these two maids were not honest and they were not hers, so she would just have to make do with them for now.
Seeing that Qin Wan had no other instructions, Caihuan bent her body and walked out.
After Caihuan went out, she was quietly taken away by Caiping.
The two came to a corner, and Cai Ping asked, "No reward, right?"
Cai Huan hummed softly, "Yeah, he is a stingy person, worthy of his humble origins, he is not presentable."
Cai Ping nodded in agreement, "I saw it a long time ago, but you are the only one who still holds out hope."
Cai Huan sighed, "I heard that my cousin is very generous and rewards her servants with silver coins!
It would be great if I could serve my cousin. I heard that she is going to become the eldest master’s concubine. The date has already been chosen, and it will be in half a month.
Oh, what a pity!
We are following a master like this, when will it end? "
At this time, Cai Ping took out five taels of silver and put it in Cai Huan's hand, "Take this silver."
"What is this?" Cai Huan clenched the silver, "Who is so generous?"
Cai Ping lowered her voice and said, "In the afternoon, Sister Chuncai came to see me and gave me ten taels of silver. We each got five taels."
"Did Sister Chuncai tell us what to do? If it's too dangerous, forget it." Caihuan didn't want to lose her job in the Marquis' Mansion, but she also felt sorry for the money. She was really in a dilemma.
Cai Ping smiled and said, "Don't worry, we just need to keep an eye on what the eldest young lady does every day, and we don't need to do anything else."
Cai Huan was relieved, "This is easy."
The two of them were whispering in the corner, and Qin Wan heard it all.
Originally, Qin Wan chased out to ask the maid if there were any hammers or other tools in the Marquis' Mansion so that she could use them. However, she saw Cai Ping stealthily taking Cai Huan away.
She immediately slowed down and chased after him.
Unexpectedly, I heard the news that the two had been bribed.
In addition, I heard that Zhao Zhen was going to take a concubine.
She had no interest in Zhao Zhen in the first place, so it didn't matter which woman he wanted to be with.
But she could now feel the embarrassment that her cousin had brought to the original owner.
Qin Wan felt inexplicably irritated whenever she thought of her wedding night. She guessed that perhaps the original owner's emotions were controlling her.
She slowly moved her feet and retreated.
Back in the room, Qin Wan felt that she could not just sit there and wait for death, and that self-defense weapons must be prepared as soon as possible.
If she is unhappy staying in the Zhao family, she might find an opportunity to leave.
As for the two little maids, she didn't take them seriously.
So, for the next two days, Qin Wan stayed in the house drawing. She first drew a crossbow, which she planned to take to the blacksmith shop to make.
Time was urgent and she couldn't do it herself.
Qin Wan's crossbow was improved upon by later generations, and its usage seemed like a firearm, so it could be used even if one did not have enough arm strength.
In addition, she also drew some parts drawings of the Derringer pocket gun.
That’s right, Qin Wan planned to secretly make a gun.
In her previous life, she was a student at the School of Mechanical Engineering. Although she was only a senior, she could be said to have grown up in a mechanical workshop.
The reason why she chose to study mechanics was due to the influence of her father. Her father was a famous mechanical engineer in China, and the things he built were certainly not ordinary small parts.
They are involved in the maintenance and manufacturing of important national weapons projects.
Qin Wan has been influenced by her surroundings since she was a child and has a great interest in machinery. She is also a military fan and is very familiar with domestic and foreign firearms.
When she was in school, she drew a lot of drawings of gun parts.
Of course, everything she made was made of wood and they were also small toys.
But things are different now. She is in an unfamiliar dynasty, and it is an era that advocates the use of force. If she, a weak little woman, wants to protect herself, she must be ruthless.
Qin Wan had been hiding in her own yard, which made the Marquis's wife very curious.
"Madam Xu, then Qin really didn't come out?"
The Marquis's wife had already chosen a day for Zhao Zhen to take a concubine, and she didn't believe that Qin Wan hadn't heard the news.
Madam Xu shook her head, "The eldest young lady's wife has seldom left her room these past two days."
"It's strange, why didn't she come to make trouble?"
The Marquis's wife was already waiting for Qin Wan to come and question her. After all, the bride had only been married for five days, and her husband's family had already taken in a concubine. Anyone with a bit of temper would come and ask for an explanation.
Aunt Xu found it funny, "Madam, this is just right. The eldest young master's wife is very generous. The eldest young master's backyard will be more stable in the future."
When Madam Hou heard this, she agreed, "Okay, then just ignore her.
Madam Xu, you should prepare well for Zhirou's wedding this time, and send out the invitations as soon as possible so that all the officials and families in Yanbei City will know about it."
"Don't worry, madam. I'll take care of it." Madam Xu agreed with a smile on her face.
In the military camp, Zhao Zhen didn't know yet that he was going to be a groom again.
He looked at the soldier solemnly, "You said that traces of the Hu people were found in the area around Nanwang Village."
The soldier replied, "Yes, sir, many villagers in Nanwang Village were killed."
Zhao Zhen slammed his hand on the table, "Mobilize the troops immediately and follow me."
"Yes!"
