Although the aunt of the Qin's could be considered amiable towards her, in this mansion, the person Shen Huajing was most afraid of was the Qin's.
The reason why she was able to run rampant and act unbridled in the manor was only because she was from the second house, which left her with a little bit of bone and blood. The old mistress and Shen Xinzhi had given face to her father, who was long dead, more or less, to the extent that they doted on this orphan girl that was left behind. However, Shen Huajing knew very clearly how heartless and cold-blooded this kind-looking Aunt and Qin's was. Her mother, Lady Wang had warned her a long time ago that the person whom she should not offend in this house was the Qin mother and daughter. As a result, Shen Huajing kept on trying to please this sister of her. In front of the Qin's, she was obedient and sensible, not daring to be negligent in the slightest, afraid that the Qin's would secretly make things difficult for the mother and daughter.
The Qin's picked up the teacup leisurely without a word, as if there were no existence of the two adults in front of him.
Lady Wang clenched her teeth, pulled out Shen Huajing who was hiding behind her, and slapped him: "You reckless brat, quickly apologize to your aunt!"
However, she was very clear on the food and clothing Shen Huajing had in the Palace, to the point where she had no other choice but to marry and choose a husband, all in the hands of the Qin's. Offending the Qin's was suicidal. The Old Mistress was already old and did not ask too many questions. The matter of the Prime Minister being a man, the entire matter of the Residence of Prime Minister was in the hands of the Qin's. The Qin's only needed to make a little move. Shen Huajing, who only had the title of being the golden daughter of the Prime Minister, but was in fact an orphan girl whose father had passed away prematurely, would have difficulty obtaining a proper marriage.
Qin's did not move from his position.
Shen Huajing's forehead smashed onto the stone again and again. A piece of her fair forehead had already been cracked, and fresh blood meandered down from her forehead, leaving behind a smear of dark red on the stone.
"Get up." Only then did Qin's lazily gesture for Shen Huajing to get up. As if Shen Huajing received amnesty, he hurriedly climbed up from the ground, and when she turned her head, he saw his own mother, Lady Wang, secretly wiping her tears.
"Mother." Little Overlord Shen Huajing had always been an arrogant person, but she cared only about her own mother. When she saw Lady Wang wipe away her tears, he panicked. "Mother, what's wrong?"
Lady Wang naturally felt heartache for her daughter, but unexpectedly, her daughter called out to her. She was just about to find a way to cover it up with a "blind eye" when Qin's's strange voice entered her ears: "Second Sister-in-Law, are you blaming me?"
How could Lady Wang blame her? She quickly apologized to Qin's and wanted to take a look at the injured Shen Muyun. Qin's spoke after a long while: "Yun Er has already gone to sleep. However, she specially instructed me not to blame this girl, Hua Jing. "
Shen Huajing was slightly taken aback.
After Lady Wang heard this, she was very grateful. "Yun'er is indeed a kind and magnanimous girl who loves and cherishes her little sister. I have not misjudged her all this while. "Sister-in-law, our family's Yun girl's character and looks can even be used for mothering the world in the future."
Lady Wang's words directly touched on the heart of the Qin's, who let out a long sigh: "Sister-in-law, you can't bring this up again, it's fine if you were in front of me, but if others were to hear it, it would truly be laughable."
Qin's's phoenix eyes nimbly turned, and seeing née Wang's doubtful expression, he continued to ask, "I love Yun Er's heart dearly, just like elder sister-in-law loves Hua Jing's heart. Seeing Yun Er being injured, as a mother, I had only cared about the pain, and forgot that Hua Jing is also a victim. "
"What do you mean?"
The Qin's laughed bitterly: "Three ladies ascended the stage together. Hua Jing and Mu Yun fell down, while the other survived. How can I not be suspicious?"
She raised her hand and gently stroked the top of Shen Huajing's head, causing her scalp to feel numb, she forced herself to feel unwell, and then she heard Qin's say gently: "I'm afraid Hua Jing was implicated by Yun Er. Yun Er had occupied the position of the young miss for many years, and she also had some talent, causing everyone to favor her a little. "I'm afraid that this little favor will hinder my eyesight."
"Originally, I heard that the Seventh Prince was interested in us, Hua Jing. There are also many other noble young masters who would wait until Eldest Miss has picked her husband before slowly considering about the marriage between Mu Yun and Hua Jing. Since she was a first-born daughter, marriage was naturally the best. I just wonder what will happen to Mu Yun and Hua Jing in the future.
When Lady Wang heard this, she became anxious. In her eyes, nothing was as important as Shen Huajing having a good marriage. The Qin's was half-hiding her words, but Lady Wang could also hear the hidden meaning behind them, and said angrily: "But as a girl who grew up in the countryside, where did your face come from?"
Shen Muyun was one thing, she knew her limits and was extremely intelligent, so Lady Wang was convinced. Now that there was an additional Shen Qingru in front of her eyes to obstruct her daughter's marriage, how could she be convinced?
"Sis, don't worry. I have a plan to punish that reckless girl." Lady Wang clenched her teeth, she had already trusted Qin's's words one hundred percent. Not only did Shen Qingru betray Shen Huajing, she had also obstructed Hua Jing's marriage. This was something that the Wang family could not tolerate.
Lady Wang asked a few more questions before Shen Muyun hurriedly left with Shen Huajing. Qin's smiled as she saw him out, she then turned to see Shen Muyun standing behind her in her pajamas. She gently bit her lower lip with a wronged look on her face, "Mother, how can you forgive Shen Huajing and her daughter so easily? She used her daughter as a cushion of meat and pressed down on me, causing me to die from the fall. " She pointed at the big bruise on her arm and said, "I don't know how long it will take before I can go out and meet someone."
Qin's smiled and caressed Shen Muyun's hair: "My son, there is no need to worry. "From there, I got the best white otter pith, and along with this ganoderma, I mashed and smeared it over my body to make sure that not a single scar would be left."
"As for that mother and daughter pair, don't worry. Letting them stay will only make them stepping stones for you. It will absolutely not harm us." A malicious smile appeared on Qin's's face, "Yun Er, I won't let anyone obstruct your way, whether it's Shen Qingru or Shen Huajing."
If she didn't guess wrong, Mrs. Wang, who loved her daughter like her life and was always in a hurry, would definitely take action against Shen Qingru.
