Chapter 279 Standing in the Way and Insulting

In the courtyard, Qin Wanru was stopped ferociously by Qi Rongzhi. “Qin Wanru, now I am the adopted daughter of Madam of Duke Xing and the Miss of Duke Xing’s Mansion, but why are you always showing off in front of Madam of Duke Xing, getting her to send you gifts time and again!”

Qin Wanru stopped, raised her beautiful brows in a dignified and composed manner, and smiled indifferently and coldly. “First Miss Qi, this is still our mansion, right?”

“What do you mean?” Qi Rongzhi was stunned and confused.

“This is still our mansion, not Duke Xing’s Mansion, so I don’t know why First Miss Qi is so confident that she can shout at me in this place.”

Qin Wanru smiled coldly, took a look at her calmly, as she said this.

Such eyes and such behavior almost made Qi Rongzhi explode with anger. She pointed at Qin Wanru and flushed. “Qin Wanru, look at my status, and look at yours!”

“First Miss Qi, enlighten me, what is my status and what is yours? This is but a title, a so-called adopted daughter, even without a ceremony to acknowledge your position. First Miss Qi, are you proud of yourself?”

Qin Wanru’s eyes became even calmer, as she looked at Qi Rongzhi from head to toe. Her face showed no scorn, but the insinuation in her words made Qi Rongzhi want to rush over and slap Qin Wanru twice.

“Qin Wanru, you are so uneducated!” Qi Rongzhi gritted her teeth and said.

“I am uneducated? First Miss Qi, what do you do mean?” Qin Wanru said lightly.

“Yes, you are an uneducated b*stard! Look at you, a b*stard picked up from somewhere, but you consider yourself as the daughter of the General’s Mansion!” Qi Rongzhi was infuriated by Qin Wanru’s scornful attitude, and shouted angrily.

“I was picked up?” Qin Wanru sneered. “First Miss Qi, you can eat randomly, but you can’t talk randomly!”

“I am not. You are someone who has been picked up. In the past, Madam Di told it to my mother. At that time, many madams heard it, not only my mother, in fact!”

Qi Rongzhi flushed and continued arguing.

Previously, she had persuaded Madam of Duke Xing successfully, not to adopt Qin Wanru, but herself. She thought she had found Qin Wanru’s flaw. Now, goaded by Qin Wanru, she resurrected this matter for her good.

“First Miss Qi, you dare say it, so you should have the courage to admit it. Go, go, go, let’s go and see my father. Can you say it again in front of him?”

Qin Wanru took one step forward and grabbed Qi Rongzhi’s hand, ready to take her to Qin Huaiyong.

Hearing they were going to see Qin Huaiyong, Qi Rongzhi’s momentum vanished. She panicked, pushed away Qin Wanru’s hand, and, putting on empty airs, said, “I am not afraid of going to see your father at all, and I will go after I get evidence from my mother.”

“You have evidence? What evidence?” Qin Wanru was shocked.

“Of course, there is evidence to prove that you are not General Qin’s biological daughter. You are but a b*stard picked up from somewhere!” Qi Rongzhi did not feel confident, but her voice became even louder. She glared at Qin Wanru as she said this, as if her mother really did have the evidence about Qin Wanru’s identity.

“First Miss Qi, remember what you said today. If you can’t prove anything, you should stay three feet away whenever you see me. If I am present, you must stay away, or…” Qin Wanru lowered her voice, eyed Qi Rongzhi with an eerily cold look, and bared her snow-white teeth at her, giving off a gruesome air.

Qi Rongzhi took two steps back subconsciously. Right now, all her momentum was lost. Stuttering, she wanted to say something defensive, but she saw Qin Wanru smiling scornfully and walked away with Yujie, ignoring her.

Just as Qin Wanru walked past her, Qi Rongzhi suddenly realized that if she caught up with her now, it would be a little embarrassing. Plus, just now when she confronted Qin Wanru, she was the loser. For now, she dared not pursue her anymore.

“Miss, let’s go back now. Earlier, the supervisor of Duke Xing’s Mansion said she wanted to see you about something in a while!” Chunyi walked over and whispered to her. Compared to Qi Rongzhi, she was clear that this was Qin’s Mansion, and dared not show her arrogance here.

For her Miss, joining Duke Xing’s Mansion was something very good, but obviously, Madam of Duke Xing didn’t take her Miss so seriously. She just sent a few gifts and asked them to move to Duke Xing’s Mansion to live. Yet, after such a long time, she had not said anything.

Today she sent gifts, but mainly to Second Miss Qin.

As a clever servant girl, she was clear that if her Miss continued to be so arrogant, she would not be allowed to stay in Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion, let alone Duke Xing’s Mansion.

“Humph, little b*tch!” Qi Rongzhi glared at Qin Wanru’s back angrily and cursed in a low voice. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She thought that Madam of Duke Xing had a higher opinion of Qin Wanru, only because Qin Wanru pleased her on purpose. Now she was her adopted daughter, but why did Qin Wanru try to compete with her to please Madam of Duke Xing?

Thinking about this, she couldn’t help rushing out to look for Qin Wanru. When she heard that Qin Wanru had gone out, she went to the yard to wait for her.

Unexpectedly, not only did she fail to vent her anger, but she was also angered. Now, she could not bear the insult. “Chunyi, has my mother’s letter arrived?”

She had sent a letter to Jiangzhou Magistrate’s wife to ask about Qin Wanru’s origin. She knew her mother had the evidence, but before she came to the capital, her mother did not tell her anything.

She must trample on Qin Wanru, to stop Qin Wanru from being arrogant in front of her.

“Miss, this matter…might just be a rumor that Madam heard!” Chunyi told her in a low voice.

“This must be true!” Qi Rongzhi could not be easily persuaded and, gritting her teeth, said.

“Miss…what if Madam sends a letter and says she has no evidence?” Chunyi said anxiously as she found Qi Rongzhi to be so stubborn.

“No evidence?” Qi Rongzhi sneered and turned to look at a corner near them. “Even if my mother does not have it, Qin Yuru must have it, right?”

Just now, she came up with another idea. “In this mansion, I should not be the only one who wants Qin Wanru dead!

“Now Qin Yuru may also want to trample Qin Wanru to death…”

“Go, let’s go and see First Miss Qin!” Qi Rongzhi’s face relaxed a little as she thought it through. Then, she turned and went to Qin Yuru’s courtyard.

“First Miss, this…First Miss Qin is now being detained. Is it convenient to visit her?” Chunyi scuttled a few steps, caught up with her, and said.

“It should be convenient, I will just go and see her. Previously in Jiangzhou, we were good friends. Now she is being punished, and I will pay her a visit and help her to copy some of the Woman Precepts. This also shows our relationship as sisters!” Qi Rongzhi sneered.

Now she had come up with a reason!

After she was angered by Qin Wanru, her fury began to burn ferociously in the chest. The fire was so strong that she had to let it out! “Why should the little b*tch Qin Wanru trample on my head…”

Qin Wanru was heading for Old Madam’s Xinning Pavilion. When she arrived, Madam Dowager was talking in the room. As a servant girl raised the door curtain, Qin Wanru went in and saw Madam of Duke Xing’s servant Nanny Sheng talking with Madam Dowager happily. Both of them were smiling.

This was such a harmonious atmosphere!

When she saw Qin Wanru, Nanny Sheng hurried over and bowed. “Second Miss, our madam has sent me to see you again!”

“Thank you, Nanny Sheng!” Qin Wanru turned sideways slightly to bow. This bow was not for Nanny Sheng, but to her master, Madam of Duke Xing.

“Second Miss, we heard that you will be attending the palace banquet. Our madam is very happy and specially sent me to bring you a gift.” Nanny Sheng grinned and said, pointing at a box on the table. A servant girl went over and opened it. Inside, a pair of jade bracelets as transparent as water, could be seen.

“This pair of bracelets is our madam’s gift to you, Second Miss. You are about to go to the palace and will meet so many dignitaries, and it’s good to dress up beautifully! At this palace banquet, Misses are always dressed in their most exquisite styles!”

“This…how can I dare accept!” Qin Wanru shook her head and refused, because she knew the jade bracelets were of great value, especially when she saw their transparent material.

“Zhuozhuo, accept it, this is with the good wishes of Madam of Duke Xing!” Madam Dowager suddenly said with a smile.

A trace of profoundness flashed in Qin Wanru’s eyes. Madam Dowager was not a short-sighted woman and would not have asked her to accept such an expensive gift without reason, especially when this was a gift from Madam of Duke Xing.

Since the matter from before, although Qin’s Mansion had not done anything to Nanny Sheng, Qin Huaiyong and Madam Dowager should be clear that Madam of Duke Xing’s intent was not friendly, but why did Madam Dowager still ask her to accept the gift in this situation?

She thought of it this way, but she did not let it show on her face. She bowed sideways to Madam Dowager and said softly, “Yes, grandma!”

Seeing that Qin Wanru accepted it, Nanny Sheng smiled even more broadly. As she waved her hand, the servant girl closed the box.

“Madam Dowager, about this matter, I still have to trouble Second Miss.” Nanny Sheng referred to something and said.

“Actually, it is no trouble, and I also need to thank Madam of Duke Xing!” Madam Dowager said politely.

“Madam Dowager, you are too courteous. Since the matter is settled, I should go back, our madam is still waiting for the message in the mansion,” Nanny Sheng said, so she said goodbye to Madam Dowager.

Madam Dowager smiled and asked Nanny Duan to see her off.

Two clever people walked out of the door, one after the other.

As soon as Nanny Sheng left, Madam Dowager beckoned to Qin Wanru warmly, and the latter came over.

Madam Dowager held Qin Wanru’s hand, signaled to her to sit down beside her, and then asked slowly, “Zhuozhuo, you were surprised that I asked you to accept the gift of Madam of Duke Xing, right?”

Qin Wanru nodded, and her long eyelashes fluttered a couple of times. She did not want to ask, but her white, tender, little face was filled with questions, which meant she was really confused!

Madam Dowager’s behavior was so strange today!
