The Return of the Marquis's Daughter

After Qin Wenlan comforted his lovely relatives, he said goodbye and returned to his own prosperous courtyard in the Qin Hou Mansion.

Qin Wenlan had just entered Fanrongyuan when Qin Jin followed.

Qin Wenlan changed into a set of home clothes and went out to meet her. Qin Jinyu saw that her elder sister was wearing a light purple casual dress, which made her look elegant and easy-going, so she quickly stood up and greeted her first.

Qin Wenlan held her up with his hands and asked, "How come you have time to come here at this time?"

Qin Jinyu sat down next to her elder sister. Lihua had already brought tea and snacks over and said with a smile, "Miss San, these are freshly baked snacks. Try them and see how they taste."

Qin Jinyu looked at Lihua and smiled, "Wow, you even prepared my favorite sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Did you know I would be coming over today?"

"Third Miss, this is just what our master told us to do. He said that whenever we make cakes, we should prepare some extra osmanthus cakes to prevent Third Miss from having nothing to eat when she comes." Lihua said as she bowed and retreated with a smile.

"Big sister is so nice to me. She even remembers the snacks I like to eat!" Qin Jinyu said with a smile as she watched Lihua leave.

"Even eating can't stop your mouth, this is good for you, it's just a small favor."

Qin Wenlan looked at Qin Jinyu, who looked worried, and continued, "You're not here because of the things going on outside, are you?"

Qin Jinyu nodded, "I know that big sister won't take these things to heart, but people's words are scary. As the saying goes, three people can make a tiger, and many mouths can melt gold. Rumors spread and become facts.

Besides, how many people in the world are willing to seek the truth? They just follow rumors and exaggerate them.

I'm really worried that these things will hurt my elder sister. After all, she's not marrying into an ordinary family." Qin Jinyu said with a worried look on her face.

"Whatever those people say is useless. The marriage was granted by the imperial decree personally issued by the current emperor. If they have the guts to go to the Qinzheng Palace and say it,

But they dare not, so they can only grumble outside. They are all jealous of others doing well, so why bother paying attention to them?

What's more, the wedding date was decided by the emperor himself. What else can they do except doing these shameful things outside to disgust people?

Besides, it is unrealistic to simply block the gossips of the people. It is better to comb them than to block them. The more you care about them, the more rampant they will become.

"We can't just go out and kill everyone for these verbal disputes," Qin Wenlan said nonchalantly.

"Don't forget, people in the world laugh at poverty, not at prostitutes. They laugh at others who have a bad life, and they are jealous of others who have a better life than them.

There is no one in this world who wants others to live more comfortably than himself. This is human nature.

It's human nature to be jealous of others' good lives and to mock others for not being as good as you. Since you will be talked about anyway, why waste your energy on it?

After listening to Qin Wenlan's words, Qin Jinyu was no longer as angry as when she came. "Big sister is really smart. She can wake me up with just one word."

That's right. No matter what you do, people will talk about you. Why force it? Just do your best. If you really care about the rumors outside, you may not be able to survive.

Qin Jinyu came out of her elder sister's prosperous courtyard and went directly to her mother's courtyard.

After hearing her daughter's words, the Second Madam smiled and said, "Our Qin family has produced such a smart woman as your elder sister.

Then there are those of you who are so naive and innocent, you all don't know what to do after getting married." The Second Madam tapped her daughter's forehead and sighed.

Qin Jinyu was scolded by her mother. "Didn't you say that our Qin family only has one smart person, my eldest sister? Why do you still despise me so much? Don't forget, mother. It's too late to despise me now."

Second Lady:…

She wanted to say that even if it was too late, it wouldn't stop her from complaining, okay?

But then he thought again, his silly daughter had a good relationship with that side, so he just shut up. He couldn't say such cold words that would hurt others.

However, it is still better to give your daughter some advice, so that she won’t offend others without knowing it because of not knowing how to speak.

"Spend more time with your elder sister in the future. After all, she won't be staying in Marquis Qin's mansion for long.

Your elder sister will marry into the royal family in the future. No matter what, you will need her help to get a good marriage.

She is not a girl raised by that Yu family, she is very calculating. Look at that Yu family girl, how she is doing now, haha~

People like us are neither high nor low, if it weren't for your elder sister's help, I'm afraid it would be difficult for any good family to propose marriage. That thing last time was so irritating, ah~"

"Mother, I know you wouldn't be ignorant of the seriousness of the matter. Besides, Big Sister is really good to us sisters.

Even if we don't say anything, in the future when it comes to marriage, the elder sister will not watch us sisters marry the wrong person.

Besides, even if Big Sister doesn't have to do anything, outsiders will think that as long as Big Sister, Princess An, is around, our Qin family girl can't marry the wrong person."

"Haha, you are thinking too far ahead and dreaming too much. But, you are right. As for the daughter of our Qin family, even if she wants to marry down in the future, I am afraid that it will not be possible. It is just that mother is obsessed with it~" The second wife said with a smile.

No matter what the mother and daughter of the second house said in private, Qin Wenlan had to be busy because the emperor had personally set the wedding date, so he had no time to deal with those trivial matters.

The third lady went to talk to the fourth lady.

"I don't think Yu will be able to take charge of the eldest lady's marriage this time." The third lady said softly.

"How dare she interfere with the eldest lady's marriage?" The fourth lady said sarcastically, "Third sister-in-law, what are the rules of the stepmother? The eldest lady's dowry is almost ready, and there is nothing else to do."

After hearing this, the Third Madam said directly: "What the legitimate mother means is that our Qinhou Mansion will take her as the head. After all, the eldest daughter has lost her biological mother, so it is okay for the grandmother to come forward. It would be better if we were not a concubine's aunt!"

Upon hearing this, the Fourth Madam sighed and said, "If Yu was a good person, there would be no need to go through so much trouble."

"It's really that Yu is too stupid. If she had been kind to the young lady, this situation wouldn't have happened." The Third Madam gritted her teeth.

The Fourth Lady: ...

You don't have to be so direct. It's not just one day that has she known whether she is stupid or not.

"I'm worried about something else, so I came to discuss it with you."

"Third sister-in-law, go ahead and talk. I'm listening." The fourth lady said seriously.

Originally, the relationship between the Third Lady and the Fourth Lady was not so close, but since Qin Wenlan came back, they have become closer.

No matter whether it was something happening inside the Qin Hou Mansion or anything outside, the two of them would discuss it together.

"I'm worried about Mrs. Yu on the day the eldest daughter gets married... By then, the eldest daughter will have to bid farewell to her parents. If Mrs. Yu..." The Third Madam sighed, "I have to put pressure on her in advance. After all, the eldest daughter is marrying a prince."
