Chapter 270

Qiu Yiran was stunned and said sarcastically: "They are in the capital, under the Empress's nose, so they naturally keep a close eye on them, but now they are far away in Luo City, and Qiu Yanran's plan has not succeeded at all, and Pan Jiaming has not suffered any losses. Even, I don’t even know if anyone suspected this accident. Even the Empress didn’t need to hunt for clues to investigate, right?
"That's all, the matter is over, let's just let nature take its course!" The old Marquis waved his hand helplessly, "As for the Ding family, please send someone to explain the situation. Yan'er has been in trouble again and again, don't let Ding What should we do if we misunderstand each other?" The Qiu family was already getting worse day by day. After the two incidents of colluding with bandits and the fake beauty Qixiang, their popularity became even worse. Many family friends and old acquaintances began to lose their Alienate them more or less, obviously or covertly.

For the current Qiu family, the Ding family is really an important in-law family.Of course there is nothing to be afraid of if you can get into the British government, but now... if the Ding family really rejects the engagement, it will not be a good thing for the Qingyuan Houfu or Qiu Yanran.

Qiu Yiran obviously thought the same thing: "Okay, I have asked someone to prepare a gift for Mother Qin, who is beside me, to go there in person."

The old Marquis nodded: "This is a good arrangement, Yi'er. Now the Marquis Mansion... is suffering from internal and external troubles, and your burden is very heavy!" He has extremely complicated emotions towards this child who is called his eldest son, but is actually his nephew. .Ever since Qiu Yiran was a young baby, he had given him very high hopes and expectations. In the past 20 years, he has been cultivating and supporting him with great efforts, hoping that he could revitalize the Qiu family. He did not want to suddenly become a bastard one day, and himself The most cherished son became a nephew, like a bolt from the blue...

It's not that he doesn't hate it, but after the initial resentment and pain that penetrated his bones subsided, he still had to admit that he couldn't hate Qiu Yiran. The only thing he hated was Mrs. Qiu, that vicious old woman and the civet cat who exchanged for the prince. The so-called sister who killed his eldest daughter and snatched the title of his real eldest son Qiu Xiran.

More importantly, even if he hates Qiu Yiran, he must not show it. The entire Hou family has to rely on the current Lord Hou.

Qiu Yiran looked at her father's tired expression, and suddenly felt sour in her heart: "Don't worry, dad, my son will definitely work hard. There is no end to the road. Our Qiu family will succeed and regain its former glory." Since the Jiaoyan Qixiang incident, After the death of my grandmother, the atmosphere in the Hou Mansion became more and more depressing. My parents, especially my father, instantly became older and had half a head of gray hair.

"Well," the old Marquis nodded again, "The Qiu family depends on you."

Just as Qiu Yiran left, Ji came in angrily: "Master, can't we get the title back to Xi'er? Doesn't the court stipulate that only the legitimate son can inherit the title? If you explain the truth in the book, the emperor should return it. We are fair, after all, Xi'er is our only legitimate son!"

"Nonsense! Aren't you dissatisfied with the Qiu family and our palace?" The old Marquis laughed angrily, "Should that be right? Fair? Who do you think you are? The Queen's natal family, the British Duke's Palace, or the emperor's most important family? Marshal? Also, how much trouble have you caused to our Qiu family in the past year? The Emperor has not wanted to see our Qingyuan Marquis Mansion for a long time. If I had not asked for forgiveness in time to save it, and asked many people to deal with it, I am afraid that the Emperor would have long ago We've thrown away our titles, how can you still have the chance to have such wishful thinking here?" If we were still in the heyday of the Qiu family, as long as we could find evidence to prove the scam of Mrs. Qiu and her daughter to exchange civet cats for the prince, this might be possible. But now...

"Besides," the old Marquis sighed feebly, "do you think Xi'er's scheming and ability can match Yi'er? Can he take on the responsibility of the Qiu family? I'd rather leave a wealthy and stable Marquis' mansion to him. It’s all difficult, let alone the Qingyuan Hou Mansion that is almost vulnerable now? A loving mother is a loser, Xi’er and Yan’er have been pampered and spoiled by you, what can they accomplish?”

"You" Ji wanted to refute fiercely, but she couldn't refute anything. She only knew that Qiu Xiran, who was eating, drinking and having fun, was indeed unable to compare with Qiu Yiran. Even Qiu Yanran was much better than him now.But it’s not Qiu Xiran’s fault. As the future head of the family and heir to the marquis, Qiu Yiran was personally taught by the old master and the old marquis, so he was naturally better.Moreover, Qiu Xiran is the youngest son, and does not deserve the love of her grandmother, nor the attention of her grandfather and father. Is it wrong for her as a mother to pamper her more?

Seeing Ji's almost desperate and unwilling eyes, the old Marquis couldn't help but feel his heart twitch, aching and aching.After all, he still couldn't bear his wife and children. He should have been suspicious a long time ago when his wife treated him like that and treated his two legitimate sons differently.If he had discovered the truth early, maybe this series of bad things wouldn't have happened.

"Be patient," the old Marquis patted his wife's hand with rare tenderness, "let some things go in advance, now is not the time to care about it, we have to rely on Yi'er. Besides, Yi'er has no idea at all, and so does he. We are working wholeheartedly for the Qiu family, but please don't reveal your emotions. If he notices something or becomes disheartened, we will really be in vain.

Ji's eyes turned red and she nodded fiercely. She was the one who was impulsive. They had given Qiu Yiran so much, and now was the time for him to repay. He could only work as a cow and horse for their family to compensate. Now let him know everything. Isn't it too cheap for him?The most important thing is that the Qingyuan Hou Mansion is not a good place to be now!

"As for Yan'er's marriage," the old Marquis took a deep look at Ji, "You should also tell her to stop messing around. She is ignorant, but you should be clear. Considering the current situation of the Qiu family and Her reputation, even if the Ding family was destroyed, she would not be able to find a good marriage. At least, the Ding family was still rich and powerful, and she was still the official wife when she entered the family. She had established a firm position in the Ding family, and faced Xi My son is also a helper." Now that the matter has come to this, we can't help but face the reality!The fourth prince and his entourage and the Zang Yuguo envoy arrived in great splendor and returned in a lively manner. Both the host and the guest seemed to have gained something and everyone was happy.

What makes people wonder is that there is one more person in the team returning to Beijing: Pan Jiajin, the eldest son of the British Duke and the cousin of Prince Ming.Not only that, it is said that Master Pan was able to sit in the same carriage with the fourth prince and Prince Xiti and talk loudly.

Everyone sighed: After Prince Ming, another grandson of the British Duke will be favored by the royal family!Hey, it's good to have a queen aunt. Even a nephew born from a concubine will have to stand out sooner or later.

Xiao Feng smiled with a look of gloating on his face: "Aren't you going to get ahead? As for the Prince Consort, speaking of which, he has to thank us for creating opportunities for him... uh... to gain limelight, and for saying so many good things." The Prince Consort of Zang Yuguo I am also the consort, right?
Xiang Junran also smiled like a flower: "Who made you almost become the prince-in-law? Mr. Pan has not dealt with you since he was a child, and he has not passed you in the scientific examination. Naturally, he has to argue that you have not become a great prince. As the prince-in-law of the court, he became the prince-in-law of Zang Yuguo, which can be considered as a victory over you, the has-been number two, right? Hahaha."

"I'm glad I'm the loser, I'm glad I'm the loser!" Xiao Feng looked like he was convinced of his defeat, "Zihe, when the good news comes, your aunt will be back from Penzhou, right? Will she faint with joy?"

"Dizzy" is Song's specialty. She is obviously in good health, but she feels dizzy with anger, sadness, excitement, happiness... and dizziness. In short, she doesn't know how to react, or in other words, perform. When he couldn't go on anymore, he would roll his eyes and feel "dizzy" and never get tired of it.Growing up, both Pan Jiaming and Xiao Feng were tired of watching it.

"It's time to come back," Pan Jiaming snorted coldly. "It's a thankless job. I gave up my money and efforts under pressure, but in the end I was criticized. Mrs. Pan's trip to visit the doctor was not going to be easy!" The Song family finally had to grit their teeth. After spending money to eliminate the disaster, and setting a marriage contract between Song Hongtu and the girl from the Li family's cousin, the turmoil was calmed down.

Mrs. Song and the eldest son of the Song family have been trying to find a respectable and more helpful marriage for their eldest son and grandson Song Hong through the British government. It would be better to get a marriage from the emperor or something.Now they are forced to marry the daughter of a school captain. Not only do they not have a prominent natal family and a huge dowry, but they also have to pay a large sum of money. How can they be willing to do so?She blames the British government for not showing favor to her in-laws, and hates the Song family for being a wolf and treating her mother-in-law so unkindly.

Young Master Xiang touched his chin: "Ms. Song has lost most of her private money this time. Aren't you afraid that she will come to you to make up for it?" When Mrs. Song married into the Pan family, her dowry was very meager. At the same level, it is even more incomparable with Pan Jiaming's mother Huo. The private money accumulated now is naturally obtained from the public through bribery, which is not easy.After all, the old lady is not confused, and she is not easy to fool.

Pan Jiaming spread his hands in an exaggerated manner: "I also want to show my respect to Mrs. Pan. Unfortunately, the Queen is worried that I only want to have fun because I have too much money, and will not do my job and delay the emperor's mission, so she asked Grandma Ling to give me the extra money around me. The money has been kept in an account book and taken back to the capital. If Mrs. Pan really needs it, she can only go back to the Duke's Mansion to ask for it from Aunt Lan and Mama Xiu. I don't object."

Young Master Xiang clapped his hands and laughed: "Gao! You are quite generous and filial, but it's a pity that Mrs. Pan doesn't have the courage!" If he asked Aunt Lan and Mama Xiu, wouldn't he just tell the Empress that she, an eldest aunt, is a picky man? Are you using your nephew's private money to subsidize your natal nephew?Does Mrs. Pan still want to be shameless and gain a foothold in the circle of ladies in the capital?

Mrs. Pan's character and tricks, Pan Jiaming and the other three were all very clear about it, and they didn't take it seriously. In the past, it was because Pan Jiaming was still young and fledgling, so he hid his clumsiness and was fiercely defensive, but now he is more relaxed. Appropriate display of one's edge is not only necessary for the court to reveal the truth of the real murderer step by step, but also a warning to Mr. Pan and the Song family to prevent them from taking advantage of the situation.

 Dear friends, Yaoyao is back and will start updating as stably as possible.I almost lost half my life because I wore high heels for a long time because of my stinky beauty. I can’t bear to look back!On those days when the dizziness was most severe, lying down and getting up every time became a nightmare, but I had to lie down to rest frequently, which was so scary!That feeling was really terrifying. The world was spinning, my whole body was shaking, and my heart seemed to have been hit hard and was going to stop. It made me think that I was going to travel through time. I was useless and couldn’t farm, cook, or have any medical skills. What should I do if I wear it and go to a poor house? Hahaha.In addition, I have revised Chapter 264, please read it again, sorry!
