Chapter 347 They Shouldn’t Look down the Mada of the Jiang Family.
When Mrs. Jiang Tianhe of the Jiang family returned to Jing City with her husband, they would bring much excitent to the Jiang Family. Because it took ti to send orders to Guanzhou and pack up there, Marquess Qin made the decision to suppress Jiang Huizhi’s affair, which made the Marquess’s Mansion beco quiet as usual.
As for the silence, it was only temporary... Qiu Yelan thought that Mr. and Mrs. Jiang Tianhe should only be grateful to her without resentnt anyway. What they should toss about was the first branch and Marquess Qin, which had nothing to do with her.
So, she ignored it and began to plan Su He’s and others’ marriages.
At that ti, when a girl heard that her marriage was ntioned, she was always shy and refused to speak. So Qiu Yelan simply called Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Li to plan together.
However, the two old people advised her not to think that first, “You have been married for more than a year. These days, you have also begun to drink the decoction of fertility drugs. Like the forr Princess, you can get pregnant after drinking this for a few months. Our young master was handso and generous. There are too many people who want to marry him inside and outside the family. Now that you’re in charge and those people don’t dare do anything anymore. If they know you’re pregnant, they will do sothing.”
“Su He and others are the people you are used to. If they serve you during pregnancy and confinent, you can rest assured. They can also watch the young master for you. If you let them get married, soone else will co up. We are not sure if the new people will seduce the young master on the excuse of serving you.”
“Even if they don’t seduce the young master, maybe they are more vicious and just co for you. Have you forgotten that soone wanted to replace the eighth mada’s position when she was alive? The Jiang Family is now more prominent than in previous years. Jiang Yashuang is also the best of his generation. Old Master attaches the most importance to his direct grandson. There are more people who want to marry him than those who want to marry the eighth young master.”
“So why don’t you let Su He and others serve you until you have your eldest son and then let them get married?”
The two old servants were so loyal, especially that Mrs. Zhou was Su He’s grandmother. Her son and daughter-in-law had passed away and Su He was her only granddaughter. Qiu Yelan felt warm in her heart but thought that it was unfair to Su He, “Girls’ youth is short. If so, won’t it delay them? And no one can say surely about the son. ”
Qiu Yelan thought, “If I can’t conceive a child, like Mada Tao Junior, for many years, I’ll waste their whole life.”
“Even if I am pregnant after three or five years, according to the common age of marriage at this ti, these maids will beco too old to get married.”
“My mada, what are you saying? You look like your mother and your body must be the sa! ” As soon as Mrs. Zhou heard this, she was unhappy and said in a hurry, “Your mother drank this soup and was pregnant in a short ti. The reason why you have only one brother is that your father put great emphasis on serving the country. He went to the frontier soon after his marriage. After that, unless he returned to Jing City to do his work report, he was always far away from your mother. Otherwise, you should have many brothers and sisters.”
Mrs. Li said, “That’s because mada loves Su He. I think it’s better to find good families for them first and settle the matter, but not arrange their marriages at once. When mada has a child, she can get married, and so that she can also get blessed by mada’s son.”
Seeing that they were determined to let Su He and others serve her until she had her son, Qiu Yelan had to accept the result and said, “So what kind of husbands do you want to choose for them? I asked them, but they wouldn’t say it!”
Mrs. Li stopped talking about this topic. After all, there was no her younger generation among maids who are old enough to get married.
Mrs. Zhou said, “You decide it. You always love them and will surely pick good ones for them.”
“Good character doesn’t an getting along pretty well!” When Qiu Yelan was about to persuade her to ask Su He and others what kind of n they like, Chen Shui suddenly knocked at the door and said, “Mada, soone from the side yard said that the person who lives there wants to see you.”
“The side yard?” Qiu Yelan was stunned and thought for a mont before she realized, “Oh, Are they i Xue and Qiu Qian? Why do they want to see ? Have they found traces of Qiu Nie? Or can’t they wait to look for Qiu Nie? Co in and tell . ”
After entering the door, Chen Shui saluted Qiu Yelan and also greeted Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Li. She said, “the ssenger didn’t say much, only said that they haven’t eaten for several days.”
“I think it was because people there refused to send a ssage for them.” Qiu Yelan guessed so. Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Li nodded. She thought about it and said, “let them eat and recuperate. Bring them here when they recover.”
Chen Shui left with the order.
Interrupted by Chen Shui, Mrs. Li got up and left, saying that it was almost ti to cook and she had to go to the kitchen to prepare.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhou said hastily that Su He was not in a hurry to get married and they could talk about this in a few days. However, i Xue and Qiu Qian suddenly wanted to see Qiu Yelan. What was the matter with them?
“Maybe it has sothing to do with Qiu Nie.” Qiu Yelan thought, “At the beginning, Qiu Nie ran away with Deng Yi and his mother. No one knows where they have gone. Later, the Jiang Family searched several tis and even issued an arrest docunt. Unexpectedly, they didn’t find him! Qiu Nie ca from ‘Tianya’. He is good at hiding himself. If only Deng Yi and his mother had escaped, they would have been caught long ago.”
Of course, this was also because Qiu Jinglan ignored them. Qiu Yelan believed that Qiu Nie couldn’t hide if her brother took action. Thinking of this, she frowned, “My brother was busy with big events before and the main power of ‘Tianya’ was also restrained. But when Jiang Yashuang wrote to him last ti, he told that my brother had finally been able to rest and could deal with his private affairs... Does it an that he is already looking for Qiu Nie and Deng Yi and his mother?”
If it was only Qiu Nie, the Jiang Family might not care too much. But Gu Yan confessed that he ordered Qiu Nie to send away Deng Yi and his mother. Although the Gu Family had been executed, it was the family of the Regent Empress Dowager. The remnant party couldn’t be eliminated in a day or two. Deng Yi and his mother had the blood of the Gu Family. If the Jiang Family ignored them, they might be a disaster in the future. The Jiang Family couldn’t rest assured if they didn’t find them.
“I don’t know what benefits Gu Yan promised Qiu Nie or is he worried about the hatred with my brother before? But his sister, Qiu Qian, and his lover, i Xue, are all in my hands. If he was just worried, did he dare not to co?” Qiu Yelan thought, “The Gu Family has fallen from power, but he didn’t betray Deng Yi and his mother. How co he betrayed my brother without hesitation before.”
“Perhaps he was killed by Deng Yi and his mother, wasn’t he?” Thinking of this possibility, Qiu Yelan’s face stiffened, “Qiu Nie’s martial arts were abolished. Even if there were no sequelae, he would almost be like ordinary people. Deng Yi and Mrs. Gu are two... If they left with so servants, the servants would also be on their master’s side. It’s highly possible that they have killed Qiu Nie.”
Up to now, they couldn’t find Deng Yi and his mother. Was it because they killed Qiu Nie after they were taken to safety by him?
“Mrs. Li wanted him to inherit from Qiu Zhongyan and his wife...” Qiu Yelan sighed, “Don’t die!”
When Jiang Yashuang ca back in the evening, Qiu Yelan asked him about Qiu Nie and the other two who were still on the loose, “Are we still looking for them?”
“Yes, but not in a hurry.” Jiang Yashuang heard that i Xue and Qiu Qian wanted to see her, so he reminded, “Those two have been in ‘Tianya’. Even if they have no strength, it is difficult to prevent their sinister ans. You’d better be careful if you want to see them.”
“I know.” Qiu Yelan was frad by them before. Although it was because she was unprepared, it also had a lot to do with their good performance. This ti they would probably not dare to do anything to harm her, but she could not completely slacken her vigilance.
Jiang Yashuang was still worried and said, “Well, since you only said that let them co in a few days and didn’t decide a specific date, you can then make it the rest day. See them when I’m at ho.”
Qiu Yelan smiled and said, “There’s no need to be cautious like seeing an enemy.” But she still agreed, “The rest day then.”
On the rest day, people from the side yard brought i Xue and Qiu Qian.
After two or three years of not seeing each other, the two didn’t change much. i Xue was still naturally beautiful, charming, and dignified, but she looked like seducing others. Qiu Qian was still beautiful and innocent, but when people looked at her, her eyes showed rebellion and indifference.
Qiu Yelan had never asked the side yard how they raised them in recent months. Seeing their clothes, she thought although they were not the best, they were not bad. They both looked good, which couldn’t be changed in just a few days. So, they were not lacking food and clothing in the side yard. Why they went on a hunger strike before was just to see , so they didn’t hurt their strength.
Both sides looked at each other. Seeing that they didn’t say anything, Qiu Yelan took the initiative to ask, “Do you want to say anything?”
“When will your brother co back?” i Xue was about to speak, but Qiu Qian spoke first and asked discontentedly, “He has been in Shazhou for almost a year, hasn’t he? If he doesn’t co back for so long, my brother can only wander outside. Does he want to default?”
Qiu Yelan was confused when she heard this, “What’s wrong? My brother...” Speaking of this, she was shocked and looked at them suspiciously, “Default? What?” Qiu Yelan thought in her heart, “Don’t tell you’re undercover, too.”
“He said how much he loved you, but he didn’t tell you anything!” Qiu Qian said unhappily, “This was the worst business my brother took over in his life and almost got sister Xue involved. As a result, the task was completed long ago, but your brother, the employer, hasn’t co back to check out yet.”
She was a little angry, “Don’t tell he is going to live in Shazhou for ten or eight years! We don’t have that much ti to wait!”
Qiu Yelan frowned. Although she knew that Qiu Jinglan hid a lot of things from her, now the life and death of i Xue and Qiu Qian were in her hands. Qiu Qian might not dare to bluff, but her lofty manner still made Qiu Yelan feel uncomfortable.
So, she simply ignored the reason and said coldly, “Since it is the business with my brother, when my brother cos back, you can talk to him. As for when my brother will co back, Shazhou is the frontier, involving foreigners and the country. There are many things. Do you think you are in charge of the imperial court? My brother is an important person in the frontier. Can you decide when he cos back?”
Qiu Qian was stunned by her words for a long ti and was about to argue. i Xue saw that the situation was bad and hurried to diate, “Don’t misunderstand, Your Grace. At the beginning, your brother did hire Qiu Nie to do an important thing. He agreed that he would pay the reward imdiately after the thing was done. But now things have been done well for several months, but your brother is in the frontier and doesn’t co back. We have been living in the side yard of the Jiang Family. We don’t even know where Qiu Nie has gone. I’m so worried and so we co here to ask Your Grace for help. Can you ntion it in your letter to your brother?”
“This is a proper way to talk.” Qiu Yelan snorted and stared at Qiu Qian fiercely, only to find that Qiu Qian was also looking at her dissatisfiedly. She was unhappy and said to i Xue, “If you don’t tell what happened, how can I ntion it to him?”
“We dare not tell you what happened without your brother’s permission.” i Xue smiled and said softly, “As long as you say we want to ask your brother for the promised reward, he will know.”
Qiu Yelan failed to know what happened. Her face was gloomy. She suddenly patted the table, “Stop talking the nonsense! What is it? Tell the truth and details, otherwise, you don’t have to worry about disobeying my brother. I won’t give you the chance now.”
They shouldn’t look down on the mada of the Jiang Family.
