Chuntao stopped.
Chen Anning stepped forward, took the dagger from her hand, and continued walking towards Chen Fanghai.
Mrs. Chen thought she was coming for her, so she held her mother-in-law's hand and backed away unconsciously: "What do you want to do!"
Chen Anning stopped in front of the wailing Chen Fanghai, glanced at her, and asked Chun Rui, who had followed her back: "Did you get all the betrothal gifts back?"
Chun Rui replied: "Not yet."
Chen Anning glanced at Mrs. Chen again, "Why don't you use the poison I gave you?"
"Go, go give it to her, give it all to her!" Old Madam Chen looked at Chen Fanghai whose face was covered with blood, she let go of her mother-in-law's hand in fear, and ordered quickly.
The mother-in-law was the woman who made tea for Chen Anning yesterday. She was already afraid of Chen Anning, but she became even more afraid when she saw Chen Fanghai's miserable state.
Therefore, after Mrs. Chen finished her instructions, she immediately went back to the aisle and said: "Miss Chunrui, come with me quickly."
After Chun Rui followed, Chen Anning's eyes fell on Chen Fanghai, who was still lying on the ground and wailing.
"W-what do you want to do?" Chen Fanghai screamed.
"Chuntao," Chen Anning ordered coldly, "call someone to carry father back to get the betrothal gift!"
Just as Chuntao was about to agree, Qiu quickly came over and said, "No need to go, I've already asked people to bring them all."
After asking the maid who had followed to hand the lacquer plate to Chuntao, Mrs. Qiu flattered her and said, "I also brought the gift list. You can see if there is anything missing, and I will have someone find it."
Chuntao handed the lacquer tray to the other maids, and she opened the gift list and checked them one by one.
After checking the betrothal gift brought over by Mrs. Qiu, Chunrui also took back the part of the betrothal gift Mrs. Chen picked out.
After checking them one by one and confirming that they were correct, Chen Anning turned around and returned to Qingzhiyuan.
Two days flew by.
This day.
It was the day to go to the eldest princess's mansion to treat her head ailments.
Early in the morning, Qiu, who had finally been quiet for two days, came again.
Zhiquchi was outside Qingzhi Courtyard. After waiting for the announcement, she entered the house with a smile on her face, as if the dispute two days ago had never happened. She said attentively: "Are you awake? I asked the kitchen to make some new snacks. Come and try it to see if it suits your taste."
After Chen Anning washed her hands, she sat down at the table, held a piece of snack, and asked while eating: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Mrs. Qiu poured her a cup of tea in a flattering manner, "Is it time for you to go to the eldest princess's mansion today?"
Chen Anning glanced at her.
Qiu quickly explained: "I just asked casually."
Chen Anning put down the half-eaten snack, picked up the tea cup, took a few sips and said, "Let's get to the point."
Qiu rubbed his hands while Gu Zuojie talked a lot of nonsense. Seeing that Chen Anning was about to leave, he pulled her and said carefully: "Look, your status is different now. The princess of the company wants to see you for treatment of her head ailments. Madams and ladies from other mansions will definitely come to visit as well." Looking for you."
"Your father's salary is not high, so I haven't bought any decent clothes or jewelry."
"If someone comes to my door, if I go out wearing these clothes, I will inevitably be looked down upon."
"I didn't mean to ask you for money, I just..."
After taking a deep breath, Ms. Qiu mustered up her courage and said, "When the eldest princess rewards you with clothes again, can you ask the eldest princess to reward me with some clothes? I don't want more, just two or three."
Facing Chen Anning's mocking gaze, Ms. Qiu quickly explained: "I, I am thinking about you too. I want to dress in an indecent way. Others will look down on me. But if you also look down on me, what should I do?"
Chen Anning teased: "So, when my mother asked those ladies for a deposit of thirty taels in the eldest princess's mansion, was she also thinking about me?"
"Didn't they all give it to them?" Mrs. Qiu muttered in a low voice. Then she remembered that she didn't receive any money because of Xie Xun, and couldn't help but say bad things about him. "You should stay away from that Dali Temple minister Xie Xun in the future." , this man has evil intentions, there will be no good in getting close to him!"
Chen Anning said slowly: "Has Kaiyang Hou Mansion sent another betrothal gift?"
Qiu quickly denied: "No!"
Chen Anning said calmly: "Does that mean Master Xie and I are chewing our tongues again?"
Speaking of Xie Xun, Chen Anning unconsciously remembered what happened two days ago when she had someone send Li Gui to Dali Temple.
She sent Li Gui to Dali Temple with the intention of ridiculing Xie Xun for not even dealing with her own servants before spreading rumors that she was fawning over him.
But he didn't expect that he would call all the servants in the gatehouse of Prince Guangling's Mansion to Dali Temple to confront Li Gui.
He personally went to Chen's house to invite her to Dali Temple to observe the case.
The results are clear.
Li Gui did go to Guangling Prince's Mansion.
But the boy in the concierge of Prince Guangling's Mansion never beat him or said those words.
The reason why he said that was because he accepted Chen Fanghai's one tael of silver and was instructed by Chen Fanghai.
As for Chen Fanghai, he thought that by calling all the servants outside Qingzhi Courtyard and ruining her reputation in public, he could force her to agree to marry the grandson, and at the same time make her afraid to take action.
After the matter is resolved.
He forcibly sent her back to Chen's house.
He did it on purpose.
They deliberately let people see them walking together, and deliberately let people chew on their tongues.
As for the reason, she could guess some of it.
It was nothing more than that on the day of the Peony Banquet, when she was performing an 'autopsy' on Prince Sun at the crime scene, because she had just traveled through time, she subconsciously said a lot of modern forensic terms, making him suspect that he was in love with her.
He suspected her, but did not take the initiative to ask. Instead, he used this method to damage her reputation and forcibly tied the two together. This showed that he had an ulterior motive.
It's better to have no other purpose.
Having an ulterior motive means asking for something from her.
Then use it up.
Let’s see who can outlast whom!
"There are many people outside who are chewing your tongue. In the past two days, you still wanted to forcefully commit yourself to him. In the past two days, you wanted to use him to get rid of the marriage with the grandson, and the grandson was humiliated by our Chen family. ." Mrs. Qiu wanted to ask her what her plans for the marriage were, but she was afraid of offending her.
In fact, although she had been saying that she was a disciple of a miraculous doctor and could match a prince or aristocrat, she was not willing to actually marry into a prince's mansion.
As a disciple of a miracle doctor, she could no longer control her. If she really went to the mansions of princes and nobles, she would not even take them seriously.
But if you marry into Kaiyanghou Mansion, you don't have to worry about it at all.
Sun Shizi's current fate was all caused by Chen Ziling.
Chen Ziling is her sister.
It is absolutely impossible for the Kaiyang Hou Mansion to have no grudge against her just because she is a disciple of the miracle doctor.
Since she has a grudge, she can only rely on the Chen family if she wants to live a smooth life.
To put it ten thousand steps back, Kaiyang Houfu has no grudge against her, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
Chen Ziling's plan to plot against Prince Sun would have been successful if it weren't for her.
It was impossible for Chen Ziling not to hate her.
As long as he hates her, it will never be possible for her to live a good life.
If she wants to live a good life, it is impossible not to rely on the Chen family.
Therefore, only if she marries to the Kaiyang Hou Mansion can it be beneficial to the Chen family and to her.
This is also the reason why she repeatedly badmouths Xie Xun.
Hiding her thoughts carefully, Mrs. Qiu continued to talk about Xie Xun again, "I said that he has evil intentions, and I am not talking about what is said outside."
"But on the day of the Peony Banquet, after you rescued the grandson's son from fainting, he disregarded the protection of men and women and just held you in his arms and appeared in front of the ladies and ladies of various houses. How can you be a gentleman by ruining your reputation like this?"
Xie Xun hugged her?
Chen Anning turned her head and looked at Chun Rui and Chuntao.
Neither of them told her about it.
