Chapter 262

Chapter 262

Qin Jiu: “After a woman gets married, she has to show filial respect to her parents-in-law and raise her children. This is already very hard enough, so if her husband doesn’t know how to be considerate to her, her life will be too miserable.”

“Anyway, we have dowry, money, hands, and feet. Why should we wrong ourselves!?”

“If the husband is not good then kick him out, isn’t it much better to live happily on your own dowry?!”

“Why do you have to work hard for a heartless scum, and work yourself into old age! Life is just a few decades, be happy.”

Qin Jiu spoke eloquently.

Yun Jiao tilted her face and was still a bit confused but felt that what Qin Jiu said seemed reasonable, on the other hand, she felt that something was not quite right, as if it was completely different from what she had heard since she was a child.

Qin Jiu continued to tell her “truth”: “You see, wangfei is elegant and dignified. She comes from a Zanying Noble Family and has a son. She has no shortage of anything. In the first half of her life, she worked hard to manage the internal affairs of wangye, but she didn’t get a word of thanks.”

“After the divorce, she can do whatever she wants, so why does she have to condemn herself to babysit concubines and raise concubine sons for Duan Wangye?”

Qin Jiu’s words sounded logical, and Yun Jiao was drawn in by her without her knowing it. She was reminded of her mother, Madam Weiyuan. Her father treated her mother well, but at the same time, her mother was also bullied for no good reason by her father’s concubine and concubine-born children.

Yun Jiao nodded: “You are right, Third Miss Qin!”

Her dark eyes flickered and flashed, her gaze burning at Qin Jiu.

After expressing her thoughts straightforwardly and in a cheerful mood, Qin Jiu nodded and said, “That’s for sure.”

She looked at Yun Jiao a little friendlier, thinking that the little girl in front of her was really a child who could be taught!

“Du Ruo, let’s have these three books.” Qin Jiu gave Du Ruo the three books she had picked out and told her to go check them out.

As soon as she finished giving her orders, she heard Yun Jiao say with a hint of expectation: “...it would be great if the emperor would also allow me to divorce in the future.”

Qin Jiu: “...”

Closing the book, Qin Jiu said meaningfully, “Miss Jiao, the emperor didn’t grant a marriage yet.”

Yun Jiao: “?”

Qin Jiu winked her right eye at her, then walked towards the owner of the bookstore and pointed at the book, “Boss, this one, I’ll take it too.”

Yun Jiao was afraid that she would lose against the authorities, so she hasn’t realized this truth yet.

It stands to reason that after the second prince and Qin Xin broke off their engagement, the imperial family should arrange a marriage for the second prince as soon as possible, as to alleviate the impact of this incident on the imperial family and suppress outside speculation and gossip.

So, Empress Dowager Liu has already chosen the new bride, and she also has chosen a new second additional concubine but the emperor has not conferred a marriage even after a long time, which means that the emperor does not agree.

Although Qin Jiu did not know whether the emperor would compromise with the empress dowager in the end, if the Yun family really did not want this marriage, now was a good opportunity to show their intention to the emperor.

Yun Jiao stood in the same place and looked at Qin Jiu’s back. She closed her mouth thoughtfully as her eyes lit up and suddenly felt a sense of relief.

She quickened her pace and caught up with Qin Jiu, giving her an intimate hug, “Third Miss Qin, thank you.”

Yun Jiao was so happy that she left a silver ingot and went away with three books in her arms, without letting the boss change her money.

Looking at the lively back of the young girl, Qin Jiu smiled and said: I hope she gets what she wants and does not marry a scum!

Du Ruo look at Yun Jiao, then look at her young miss, and felt that for the short time she was away, something extraordinary must have happened.

After buying the book, Qin Jiu went to the snack shop next door and bought some snacks. Shen then went back to the Marquis Mansion and gave her younger brother a snack, thinking that the naughty boy has been practicing martial arts diligently with his master these days.

The next day, she visited Duan Wang Fei again with the books she had just bought.

On the third day, she brought some small embroideries bought by the embroidery workshop.

On the fourth day, she went out of her way to buy the snacks just produced by Jinshiji.

And on the fifth day, when she went to Jinyu Alley again, she saw a new plaque erected in front of the gate, with the words “Xiao’s Mansion” written on it.
