Chapter 196



After Qu Moying finished speaking, she left with her maid. She was not the least bit curious about Qu Caiyue’s incident.

Seeing Qu Moying leave without a care, Qu Caiyue became furious. She crumpled the handkerchief in her hand into a ball and then gritted her teeth. She ordered the maid beside her to invite Qu Qiuyan over.

Qu Qiuyan did not come quickly. Only after a long time did she bring Qing Ju over. She was now a busy person in the mansion. How could she be as relaxed as before?

“Qiuyan, it’s not working.” As soon as she saw Qu Qiuyan come in, Qu Caiyue hurriedly sat up straight on the bed and said.

“Not working?” Qu Qiuyan sat down on a chair by the bed, her face gloomy. “Second Sister, didn’t you say that this is a small matter?”

“That blind girl is really too difficult to deal with,” Qu Caiyue said with a headache.

“If you can’t even handle such a small matter, Second Sister, you can forget about everything else,” Qu Qiuyan said coldly.

“Qiuyan, help me this time. If next time…” Qu Caiyue begged.

Qu Qiuyan waved her hand, “Second Sister, you can’t even handle your own thing. What else should I expect from you? I originally wanted to help you, but now it seems that it is useless to help you. In a few days, Grandmother will forgive Aunt Luo, and then you will go back to East Mansion by then. And you’ll have to wait until Eldest Sister’s marriage is settled. After that, it will finally be your turn to get married.”

“No, I don’t want to go back.” Qu Caiyue panicked.

“What’s the use of not going back? How can a person like you win against Aunt Luo?” Qu Qiuyan curled her lips in disapproval with a mocking smile.

“No, I will beg that blind girl,” Qu Caiyue said anxiously.

“Then it will depend on your performance, Second Sister. As long as that blind girl mentions it in front of Grandmother, she will be to blame if any accident happens in the future. Or even if it is not caused by her, it will be related to her. If I help you when the time comes, Grandmother won’t blame me.”

Qu Qiuyan’s expression eased up. She reached out and patted Qu Caiyue’s hand. Then, she stood up. “Second Sister, since you now live in our mansion, just tell me if you need anything. Of course, you can also tell Moying. After all, she is now starting to manage the affairs, although not much yet.”

“I know.” Qu Caiyue nodded hard, indicating that she understood what Qu Qiuyan meant.

“Then, Second Sister, take care of yourself. Later, Aunt Luo will send someone to ask about you. I still have to deal with her, so I won’t stay to accompany you.” Qu Qiuyan smiled.

“Sorry to trouble you, Qiuyan.” Qu Caiyue held the maid’s hand and was about to get up, but Qu Qiuyan stopped her. “I do hope that you can succeed, Second Sister. When the time comes, you two sisters can get closer. Aunt Luo can’t do anything to you anymore. She might even need to listen to your order.”

Thinking of being able to make Luo act according to her order and being able to make Eldest Sister Qu Xuexin and the blind Qu Moying kneel in front of her and look up at her, Qu Caiyue became excited and nodded hard. She felt it right to follow Qu Qiuyan. If not for Qu Qiuyan’s proposal, she wouldn’t have dared to “commit suicide” by throwing herself into the lake, and even more, she wouldn’t have dared to bring the matter up to the Old Lady.

Now, the maids spread the news for Qu Caiyue that Luo only cared about Qu Xuexin’s marriage and neglected Qu Caiyue, the concubine-born daughter, which caused the servants in the mansion to mock her, and that was why she felt depressed and threw herself into the lake as a suicide attempt. Even after being rescued by the maids, she had no desire to live. Just solely based on this, the Old Lady would put the blame on the First Madam.

And she could also stay in West Mansion for a period of time. Of course, this period of time was not long. Moreover, if she went back and fell into the hands of the First Madam, her future days might be even more difficult. However, Qu Caiyue would not give Luo such an opportunity. She wanted to escape from East Mansion. Even if she had to go back and live in East Mansion for a period of time in the future, she wanted to make sure that Luo would not dare to make a move on her.

And the so-called opportunity was to enter the palace!

Entering the palace represented infinite possibilities. Now, both Qu Qiuyan and Qu Moying had the possibility of entering the palace. The only one missing out was her. She would not let go of this opportunity no matter what.

Qu Moying’s foot was better now. When she went to greet the Old Lady, she went directly. These days, she went to the Old Lady’s yard more often. From time to time, she would go over there.

Sometimes, she went to greet the Old Lady, and sometimes, she went to ask about things. Qu Qiuyan would send some unimportant things to her. When she was in charge, she deliberately went to ask the Old Lady for the latter’s opinion.

It was not because she did not have the ability to handle things. Ji Hanyue had been in charge of affairs long ago. When Yue was sick, she had already been in charge of Earl Ling’an’s Mansion’s affairs. However, Qu Mansion was different from Earl Ling’an’s Mansion. Right now, she had to be familiar with it first. It was not good to show too much of her ability so soon.

It was best to let the Old Lady guide her from time to time.

Qu Caiyue had been recuperating in West Mansion for three days. These three days, Luo brought Qu Xuexin to pay their respects to the Old Lady every day. Under the pretense of paying respects, she was actually visiting to apologize.

After all, when the Old Lady lived in West Mansion, she did not ask much from Luo of East Mansion. She only asked Luo to come over to pay respects during festivals. As for other things, the Old Lady never cared about them, and she was not demanding at all. It could be said that Luo had always been living comfortably in East Mansion.

But this time, the matter was not small. Because of her negligence, a concubine-born daughter jumped into the lake. If this kind of thing spread out, not to mention her reputation, even her daughter’s marriage would be delayed.

Because of this, Luo was reprimanded by Qu Zhilin. Later, she came over with Qu Xuexin every day.

At this time, the two sisters were talking in the Old Lady’s main hall. In the past few days of idle talk, Qu Moying had already figured out what happened to Qu Caiyue.

“Moying, what do you think? Is it because Caiyue doesn’t like me?” Qu Xuexin lowered her head and looked unhappy. Although this was Luo’s negligence, it sounded like it had something to do with her. Right now, she was also feeling depressed.

“Eldest Sister, have you gone to see Second Sister?” Qu Moying looked at Qu Xuexin, who had her head lowered, and asked.

“I did go to see her, but she… didn’t seem to want to see me.” Qu Xuexin lowered her head even more. Her temper seemed to be the best among Qu Mansion’s ladies, and it seemed that she had never lost her temper in the past.

“How will Aunt Luo deal with this?” Qu Moying was silent for a moment and asked.

“Mother doesn’t know either. Father said…” Qu Xuexin stopped at this point. She had heard the argument between her father and her mother that day. At that time, she was about to go see her mother, but she heard her parents arguing about Qu Caiyue.

“Eldest Sister, you shouldn’t interfere in this matter.” Qu Moying reminded in a reserved manner.

“I know!” Qu Xuexin nodded and wiped the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief. “I… I just don’t want to make things difficult for Mother.”

If she did not get married, her mother would never find a marriage for Qu Qiuyan. This was her mother’s last insistence and her bottom line.

What could she, the daughter, do?

“Aunt Luo will know what to do,” Qu Moying advised. Her eyes swept over Qu Xuexin. She could see that Qu Xuexin was a little panicked and helpless.

Qu Moying actually couldn’t see through this Eldest Sister. It could not be said that she was not nice, for she seemed to be a good person. However, it could not be said that she was good either, because every time something happened to Qu Moying, Qu Xuexin was always extremely innocent. Qu Caiyue had got into such a big incident, and the only one Grandmother wanted to blame was Aunt Luo. Nothing happened to this Eldest Sister. Besides, Grandmother even felt that Qu Xuexin was wronged.

Qu Moying was not looking forward to something happening to this First Lady Qu, but she felt that it was a little strange.

She got such a sense of strangeness after she connected everything from her previous life’s identity as Ji Hanyue and this life’s identity as Qu Moying.

If it had been Ji Hanyue alone, she would not have discovered that. If it had been Qu Moyinge alone, she would only have a trace of suspicion. But now, she felt very strange.

In her previous life, Ji Hanyue once saw Qu Xuexin and County Lady Jingyu talking secretly on the side. They seemed to be very intimate, but in this life, she had never seen Qu Xuexin and County Lady Jingyu together. Moreover, Qu Xuexin did not mention anything. Based on the relationship of Qu Xuexin and County Lady Jingyu at that time, as long as Liu Jingyu spoke out for Qu Xuexin, Qu Xuexin’s marriage would not be a problem at all.

Did she see it wrong in the past life? It was impossible. When she saw them at that time, she deliberately looked at them a while longer. She did not recognize Qu Xuexin. She just felt that this lady looked very gentle when looking at people. Although this lady was not the most outstanding, she gave people a kind, gentle, and dignified feeling.

She stood at the side with a gentle smile, not wanting to be involved in any conflict.

Without any edge, she just stood beside Liu Jingyu. She gave people a very comfortable feeling.

“Eldest Sister, if you have a good friend, you can actually ask her to help Aunt Luo,” Qu Moying suggested. With the Liu Family’s status, as long as Liu Jingyu asked her mother to offer help, they could definitely find a good marriage for Qu Xuexin, which was totally different from her current situation where she could not find a good marriage at all.

Suddenly, Qu Moying’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that there was another mystery behind Qu Xuexin’s canceled engagement?

“This kind of thing is not something that others can help.” Qu Xuexin was in a very low mood. “Even if they give me a hand, they won’t be able to offer help in every respect.”

As soon as she said this, Qu Xuexin seemed to feel that she had made an indiscreet remark. She quickly forced a smile and said, “I heard that it was because of me that Caiyue… I feel guilty now whenever I see her. Moying, I have to trouble you to take care of Caiyue for a few more days. If there anything happens to her, please comfort her. Originally, I should handle this kind of thing. But now, she does not want to see me.”

“According to Aunt Luo, how long will it take before she takes Second Sister back?” Qu Moying asked calmly.

“I’m not too sure either. It might take a period of time. Now, both Grandmother and Father are blaming Mother, and Mother is sad. She didn’t expect things to develop like this.” Qu Xuexin sighed, and her expression became more and more bitter. She reached out and grabbed Qu Moying’s hand. “I’ll have to trouble you, Moying.”

After the two spoke for a while, Luo was about to leave. She sent someone to summon Qu Xuexin. Qu Xuexin stood up and said goodbye. Qu Moying sent her out and then turned to say goodbye to the Old Lady. Then, Qu Moying went back with Yu Dong. However, she did not expect to be stopped by Qu Caiyue halfway.
