How come all the good reputation has been taken by Lin Xiaoruan?
Not only did she suffer pain, but she also got a bad reputation for slandering and scheming against others.
She vented her anger only after returning to Cui's house. She didn't care that Mrs. Cui was still standing beside her and smashed all the teacups in the room to pieces.
She said with a cold face: "All ten of my fingers were pierced by that bitch Lin Xiaoruan, and you just watched and did nothing?"
Mrs. Cui explained: "I would like to intervene, but what can I do? She is using the pretext of saving you!"
Qin Jinjin closed her eyes tightly. She really couldn't bear this anger.
As a noble lady of the Qin family, how could she let an unknown little girl plot against her?
She said with a ferocious look: "I won't let her go!"
Mrs. Cui agreed: "Yes, let's think of a good way to deal with her, and it would be best if Lin Yiwan couldn't help her!"
Qin Jinjin quickly came up with an idea. She lowered her voice and said, "What do you think? If Lin Yiwan's beloved child died at Lin Xiaoruan's hands, would the sisters turn against each other?"
Mrs. Cui was immediately startled and broke out in a cold sweat. She said in a trembling voice, "Do you really have to make such a big fuss?"
Qin Jinjin glared at her and said, "You know, after this incident, your Cui family will become famous in the capital, but it's definitely not a good reputation!"
Mrs. Cui's eyes gradually showed a cruel look. She gritted her teeth and said, "Even if we have to do it, we must prepare it perfectly. Otherwise, the entire Cui family will be destroyed!"
Qin Jinjin nodded: "I understand!"
As night fell, the entire Zhan Yihou Mansion fell into silence.
Lin Yiwan came to Lin Xiaoruan's yard and handed all five thousand taels of gold to her.
She refused helplessly: "Sister, I, I can't accept it!"
Lin Yiwan asked doubtfully, "Why can't I have it? This is compensation from the Cui family, so it naturally belongs to you!"
Lin Xiaoruan muttered softly, "But this is too much. Could it be that my elder sister is disgusted with me and wants to drive me away?"
Lin Yiwan reached out and pinched her little face: "What are you thinking? Why would I drive you away? Since I taught you skills, I intend to keep you by my side forever!"
Lin Xiaoruan's eyes lit up and she subconsciously threw herself into her arms.
She sobbed, "I thought my sister didn't want me anymore. Now, you are my only relative in this world!"
Lin Yiwan patted her shoulder and soothed her, "No, it's just that Madam Cui's proposal has given me a heads-up. Why not take advantage of your coming-of-age banquet to find you a handsome young man as a husband?"
Lin Xiaoruan blushed instantly, and she cried out in her arms, "Sister, I don't want a young man as my husband. Do you think a woman must get married?"
This question stumped Lin Yiwan, and she didn't know how to answer.
She pulled Lin Xiaoruan out of her arms and said, "Tell me, what are you really thinking? Do you really want to remain single for the rest of your life? The Zhan Yihou family is wealthy and powerful, so they can naturally leave a courtyard for you!"
Lin Xiaoruan lowered her eyes and said, "Sister, I know medicine. I don't want to rely on a man. I can support myself!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a voice rang out from outside: "Well said, this is the confidence a girl should have!"
Lin Yiwan looked up in surprise, and saw a bright and beautiful woman walking towards her.
She quickly stood up: "It's so late, why are you here?"
*** said: "Didn't you come to visit Xiaoruan because you heard that she was upset? You are so soft-hearted that you only made the Cui family give up 5,000 taels of gold. If it were my temper, I would have pinned their entire family to the ground and spanked them. You don't even consider Xiaoruan's status, and you still dare to covet her!"
Lin Yiwan explained: "Xiaoruan didn't suffer any loss, but Qin Jinjin almost died from the pain!"
*** looked Lin Xiaoruan up and down, and after confirming that she was fine, he said, "Given Qin Jinjin's temper, she will definitely not let this go. The Qin family is all the same, and they won't stop until they've committed suicide. Have you thought of a way to deal with this?"
Lin Yiwan asked curiously, "What did you hear?"
*** whispered something in her ear, and her eyes gradually turned cold.
She said in a deep voice: "If she really does this, then I will definitely not let her off easily. Let's wait and see!"
This wait lasted until the end-of-year palace banquet.
Since it was the first year that the new emperor officially ascended the throne, the palace was preparing for a grand celebration.
Naturally, the whole family of Zhan Yihou was present. In addition to the two young masters, Zhan Qingning and Xiao Miaomiao were also dressed very luxuriously.
Especially the little Miaomiao, wearing a hollow gold butterfly hairpin, she looks so cute.
She now has the appearance of a young lady, and her every move exudes an elegant and unparalleled demeanor.
The family got on a carriage and headed straight for the palace, where they happened to meet a group from the Cui family.
Qin Jinjin has married into the Cui family and is probably pregnant. She is surrounded by several maids and nannies serving her.
When she saw Lin Yiwan, her expression was awkward and complicated.
But she still had to follow the proper etiquette, and she bowed respectfully: "Greetings, Madam Hou!"
Lin Yiwan glanced at her nonchalantly and said calmly, "I didn't expect Madam Cui to join in the fun. It's the New Year's Palace Banquet, and there are envoys from friendly countries attending. It would be bad if she bumped into you!"
Qin Jinjin's face suddenly turned ashen with anger. She didn't expect Lin Yiwan to curse her right away.
But she can endure it!
She immediately said with a forced smile, "Madam Hou, you're worrying too much. My pregnancy is very safe. The court doctor told me to move around more and not be lazy!"
Lin Yiwan didn't say anything else and walked into the hall with her three children.
Qin Jinjin's fierce eyes fell on the chubby little girl, and a ferocious look flashed across her face.
She gave a few words to the maid beside her and then hurried out.
The banquet started soon, and after drinking a few more bowls of milk tea, the little cat felt its lower abdomen was bloated.
As luck would have it, the envoy's wife tripped Lin Yiwan up, preventing her from taking care of little Miaomiao.
At this time, Lin Xiaoruan stepped forward, took her hand and said, "Come on, Auntie will take you out!"
Little Meowth narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Thank you, Auntie!"
The two left the noisy banquet and headed straight for the back hall.
Lin Xiaoruan quickly sensed the danger because she found a figure following her.
She held a silver needle in her hand, her face full of vigilance.
Just as they were passing by the lotus pond in the back garden, the figure finally couldn't hold back anymore. She rushed out from behind and subconsciously reached out to push Lin Xiaoruan down.
Lin Xiaoruan was prepared and took the silver needle and stabbed it into her wrist, then hugged Lin Xiaoruan and dodged in time.
The man fell to the ground with a thud, his face full of fear.
Lin Xiaoruan was surprised to find that she was wearing exactly the same clothes as herself.
She quickly realized that someone had deliberately created the illusion that she had pushed Xiaoruan into the pond.
She wanted to deliberately sow discord between her and her elder sister, making her elder sister hate her.
Shocked and angry, Lin Xiaoruan didn't hesitate and directly fed her a poison pill.
