The Return of the Marquis's Daughter

"I also heard that when she was just a concubine, she was deeply loved and cared for by Qin Jiawang. At that time, the daughter of the Min clan leader had not even married into the family yet!

The Qin family treated Yu as their own daughter and protected her like the apple of their eye, staying at her place every night. Otherwise, how could her daughter be the same age as the daughter born to Min's daughter?

She even gave birth to a son. Just imagine how favored Yu must have been. A concubine was even more powerful than the main wife.

"So this Yu family has some tricks up their sleeves. I also heard that..."

The topic became increasingly off-topic, but the enthusiasm for discussion did not diminish in the slightest. In fact, more people were already talking about what happened back then.

This is human nature. As long as it is not their own business, no matter how outrageous or unpleasant it is, they will talk about it with relish.

Anyway, they are not talking about their own affairs, they are all talking about it, and the more scandalous it is, the more excited they are to talk about it.

Less than a day later, this matter reached Qin Jiawang's ears.

When he attended court the next day, he noticed an indescribable strangeness in the gazes of many people. Not only did they stare at him blankly, but they also kept stealing glances at him.

He held his temper and waited until the court session ended before asking the colleagues he was most familiar with about the reason.

After understanding all the circumstances, his face instantly turned as dark as ink, so gloomy that no one dared to come near him.

Even in this situation, Qin Jiawang still felt unsatisfied and couldn't wait to go home and ask.

He immediately rushed to the Marquis Qin's mansion with a burst of anger.

At the residence of Marquis Qin, Yu had just finished her breakfast when she heard Nanny Li come in in a panic and report to her what had happened outside.

When she heard this, she collapsed to the ground, so frightened that she felt as if her soul had left her body. Fortunately, Nanny Li was quick to support her and she was able to sit up straight in the chair.

"Madame Li, how could such rumors be spread so widely? Who knew it so clearly? And how could it spread so quickly?"

She did everything quietly and privately, and handled all the mortgaged items by herself, not even letting the maids around her get involved.

Logically speaking, how could someone outside know this? And how could they know it so clearly? What was going on here?

Jiangji Money House, Zhangji Money House and even Liji Money House are all very reputable money houses. It is impossible for them to reveal her affairs to outsiders.

So how did these people outside know about this? Yu had a hunch that this matter was not that simple, and he was afraid that someone had done it on purpose.

"Madam, do you think this was done by the eldest daughter? After all, apart from the eldest daughter, who else in the entire Qin Hou Mansion could do such a thing?

Besides, what good would it do them? They all rely on the Qin Marquis's Mansion for survival. If a scandal breaks out in the mansion, they won't benefit from it either!"

Nanny Li said as if she knew it.

After hearing this, Yu was stunned for a moment, "How could it be her? No matter what, a scandal in the Marquis Qin's mansion would not benefit her as a bride-to-be!

Besides, the rest of the silver has already gone into her pocket. Besides, how did that little bitch know so much about it?"

Nanny Li chuckled and said, "Madam, I've always felt that the eldest daughter seems to have a deep hatred for you. Could it be that she already knows what happened back then?"

Yu's heart sank. "But how did she know that? She was just a baby back then, how could she know so much?"

Nanny Li continued, "In my opinion, the young lady's abilities are far more terrifying than we imagined.

Look at what she has done since she came back. Which one of them hasn't been easy for her? From Fanrongyuan to Min's dowry, to Miss Shu and Mr. Huai being poisoned and injured.

Now that she has harmed you to this extent, I'm afraid that your mortgage was all part of her plan."

After hearing this, Yu was even more speechless, because she could not refute what Li Ma's words, and even the hairs on her body stood up.

If the little bitch is really as powerful as Nanny Li said, and everything is planned by her, then it would be too scary!

How old is she now? She is able to come up with such a plan. It is even more powerful than Qin Zhao's plan for the entire Qin Hou Mansion back then!

The little bitch seems to be involved with Xiaoyao Pavilion now, and perhaps they have a very good relationship. It is not surprising at all that the little bitch knows about her mortgaged real estate deeds.

Or maybe I was too soft-hearted back then. It would have been much better if I had killed the old bitch together. I wouldn't have such troubles now.

But at this moment, a maid came in hurriedly from outside and reported, "Madam, the Marquis has returned and is heading towards the Lemon Courtyard."

When Yu heard this, her heart suddenly sank. She looked at Li Ma and realized that Qin Jiawang already knew everything. Otherwise, how could he come back at this point?

"Madam, please don't be anxious. Over the years, the Marquis's love for you is deep-rooted. Even if you make a small mistake now, the Marquis won't really do anything to you. Besides, with your skills, are you afraid that you can't take the Marquis down?"

After hearing this, Yu's heart calmed down a little, and she no longer felt as irritable as before.

Yes, when had she ever been defeated by Qin Jiawang? Even if she did something wrong now, Qin Jiawang would not be able to do anything to her!

That time, there was no big talk but little action, so she got through it safely. Besides, this time it wasn't about herself, wasn't it all for his precious daughter?

After all, considering the Qin family's love and favor for her, how could they make things difficult for her over such a small matter, not to mention that her Shu'er is now a concubine.

Even for the sake of Shu'er, the Qin family couldn't do anything to her. After all, she didn't spend a penny of the silver on herself. It was all for their Shu'er.

Thinking of this, Yu, who was originally as upset as an ant on a hot pan, suddenly calmed down.

At the same time, she narrowed her eyes and thought for a moment about how this matter should end.

He soon came up with a plan in his mind. After Yu Shi had the plan in his mind, he just sat and waited for Qin Jiawang to arrive.

After a while, Qin Jiawang came in from outside with a black-faced devil look.

"My Lord, why are you back at this time?" Yu quickly stood up and went to greet him, as if she hadn't noticed Qin Jiawang's face that was as dark as the King of Hell.

Qin Jiawang stared at Yu with an icy gaze and asked directly, "How come you don't know why I've returned at this hour?"

He had suppressed his fury and walked over to sit down. "Alright, stop with all that nonsense. What are those rumors out there really about?"

Yu glanced at Nanny Li and others beside her, and Nanny Li quickly led everyone out of the room.

After everyone had left, Yu walked forward and suddenly knelt down in front of the Qin family with a "thump". Her posture was very humble, even a little humble.
