My Wife is A Sword G Chapter 462: What a Powerful Mother-in-Law

Chapter 462: What a Powerful Mother-in-Law

“Madam, shall I go instead?” Lan Ningshuang hastily suggested.

After learning so much from the grandma, she had a premonition that if the young lady left at this mont, sothing unpredictable might happen in the main hall!

After all, she had already sensed sothing unusual.

“It’s alright, you can just go with Jianli. So many guests have co to our in-laws today.”

“As the legitimate wife, Jianli must not neglect etiquette, otherwise others might think that I, as the mother, have not raised her properly.” Houfei Qing said with a smile, her face amiable but with an obvious undertone in her words.

She was asserting her authority over the Dragon Clan mbers while reminding Jianli of her position in the Qin residence – the legitimate wife!

A powerful mother-in-law indeed. Second Mother was astonished. She had only t Houfei Qing a few tis before.

Her previous impressions mainly revolved around her appearance, and she admired how Jianli had inherited her beauty from her mother.

But she never expected that such a quiet and gentle girl like Jianli would have such a sharp-tongued mother.

The difference was like night and day.

At the sa ti, she was relieved that Jianli’s personality was not like that of her mother.

Otherwise, her family status might be threatened.

When Qin Feng heard this, his heart jumped into his throat. Was his outgoing mother-in-law going to go all out from the start?

He turned his head to look at his wife and gave her a pleading look, hoping that she would stay and smooth things over so that the atmosphere wouldn’t be so tense.

But Liu Jianli obviously didn’t understand his gaze, and instead asked, “Husband, do you want to drink tea too?”

As soon as she said this, everyone looked over.

“Ah? Well.” Feeling the attention of everyone, Qin Feng smiled and nodded in response, and emphasized: “Co back early.”

“Mm.” Liu Jianli didn’t think much either, and left the lobby with Lan Ningshuang.

Seeing this, the mother-in-law said again, “My son-in-law and Jianli are so loving, they don’t want to be apart for even a second. It’s really quite a sight to see.”

“Unlike so n, who like to eat from the bowl while looking at the pot.”

“Speaking of which, dear son-in-law, when do you plan to hold the wedding with the Dragon Clan? Do you need the Liu family’s help?”

Don’t, don’t cue

anymore. Qin Feng looked at his old man, who lowered his head to drink tea and averted his gaze.

Then he looked at his beloved Second Mother. She opened her mouth as if to say sothing, but stopped herself.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to help, but with no worthy opponent at ho and no practical experience, the Second Mother was unable to help.

Helpless, Qin Feng had to turn to his War God Father-in-law for help.

Seeing this, Liu Tianlu deliberately coughed a few tis before subtly glancing at the Houfei Qing.

This was to remind her that the Liu family were guests, and it was impolite to be so aggressive.

Houfei Qing pretended not to see, but instead expressed her concern, “Master, is your throat uncomfortable? Don’t worry, Jianli has gone to get tea and will be back soon.”

With that, she turned to the Dragon Clan and said, “The won of the Dragon Clan are truly as rumored, with stunning natural beauty. I wonder which young lady will be marrying into the Qin family?”

“Before a Dragon Clan woman marries, she is not allowed to be seen by outsiders. Today, we are only here to discuss the marriage arrangents with the Qin family.”

“However, if we had known that the Liu family would co, we would have chosen another day to visit. Otherwise, it would be rude and ridiculous.”

A soft voice sounded, and Houfei Qing narrowed her eyes and looked at the source.

What she saw was a woman in a black dress leaning lazily on the tea table with one hand resting on her chin. She was Cang Mu.

This person is not simple. Houfei Qing felt like she was facing a formidable enemy.

These words may seem casual, but they have two anings.

First, it showed the Dragon Clan’s magnanimity and understanding of etiquette.

Second, it was also a jab at her, saying that she has no etiquette and did not know to retreat when she saw that the Dragon Clan was here to discuss important matters.

“It’s fine. I didn’t know you were coming either, otherwise I wouldn’t have co to disturb you,” Houfei Qing said with a smile.

The guards outside the main hall heard this and showed a strange expression.

The following developnts let Qin Feng know what a war without gunpowder was, and what verbal battle was.

The social butterfly mother-in-law and Cang Mu exchanged words, seemingly polite, but in fact they were hiding murderous intentions.

This inevitably reminded Qin Feng of the palace dramas he had seen in his previous life; the current scene was almost identical.

At the sa ti, he was thankful that his wife’s temperant was not like his mother-in-law’s, otherwise, these days would be filled with fear and trepidation.

In the main hall, only the voices of two won could be heard, while the other n sat in silence, not daring to speak.

It wasn’t until Liu Jianli returned with tea, accompanied by Ningshuang, that this battle ca to an end.

“My dear, you’re finally back,” Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

‘This Dragon Clan woman is not easy. If the Dragon Clan woman who is going to marry into the Qin family is like her, no, even if she is only one-tenth as good, Jianli will have a hard ti.’

‘No, I have to take advantage of today and teach Jianli a good lesson, so that she won’t be suppressed by others.’

Thinking like this, the Mother-in-law looked at her own daughter, only to see her calmly making tea for the woman in the black dress. She was imdiately furious; wasn’t this just asking to be bullied?

Just then, the sound of horse hooves ca from outside the Qin Mansion, announcing the arrival of an imperial decree, a sound that was heard by everyone in the Qin Mansion.

Qin Feng and the others went outside to receive the decree, and the one who announced the decree was still Eunuch Li.

Generally, ordinary edicts were announced by people from the Grand Literature Academy, and only edicts that Emperor Ming attached great importance to were announced by his trusted confidants like Eunuch Li, just like the last ti.

Everyone was curious to know what the edict would contain this ti.

After Eunuch Li finished reading it, not only the Qin family and others, but even the Dragon Clan and the Liu family were quite surprised.

This ti, Emperor Ming actually let the Ministry of Rites handle Qin Feng’s engagent to the Dragon Clan. He even said that he would provide the Dragon Clan with the engagent gifts!

“Why don’t you accept the edict right away?” Eunuch Li smiled.

Qin Feng ca to his senses and rushed forward to accept the edict: “Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace.”

After the edict was handed over, Eunuch Li asked again, “Is the wedding date set?”

Qin Feng shook his head. Originally, the Dragon Clan ca here to discuss the marriage, but unfortunately it was disturbed by the social butterfly Mother-in-law.

At this mont, Cang Zong nearby lightly said, “Before a Dragon Clan woman marries, she has to purify herself for three days. After three days, she can marry anyti. However, your human customs emphasize auspicious dates. The exact timing is up to you.”

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Li said, “If we’re not mistaken, five days from now would be an auspicious ti for a wedding. It’s a good ti. How about setting it for that day? What do you think?”

“Fine,” Cang Zong replied.

Qin Feng looked back at his parents. Seeing their nods, he replied, “We’ll let Eunuch Li make the arrangents.”

“Good, then it’s settled. We’ll report to His Majesty,” Eunuch Li said before leaving with his retinue.
