On Qin Changzhou's birthday, Li Jingwan woke up very early.

Although it was still early, if you listened carefully, you could hear subtle sounds, and the Marquis' Mansion was already preparing.

However, she thought she was the most excited person in the Marquis' Mansion.

Most of the plans after rebirth were for this day.

She wanted to avenge herself from her past life, expose the true faces of these people, and bring ruin to the entire Wu'an Marquis Mansion.

When the sky was just getting light, the entire Wu'an Marquis Mansion was already busy.

Li Jingwan went to pay her respects to Old Madam Qin. Qin Changzhou, Qin Guangyao and their two siblings had already arrived.

"Jingwan, come here quickly." Old Madam Qin, dressed in gorgeous clothes and wearing valuable jewelry, beckoned her over with a smile on her face.

"Today is Changzhou's birthday. I was supposed to go and wish him a happy birthday, but I didn't expect him to be so filial and bring Yao and Yun first."

Li Jingwan had to say, "Happy birthday, Lord Marquis."

"Thank you." Qin Changzhou was also very excited today. He took the initiative to smile at her and expressed his concern in a rare way.

"You've worked hard these days preparing for the birthday party."

I thought Li Jingwan would be deeply moved after hearing this, but she just smiled and said, "It's not hard, it's my job."

Qin Changzhou was somewhat dissatisfied with her attitude.

Li Jingwan was telling the truth, it was indeed not hard.

Except for sending out the invitations, she was in charge of the preparations for the birthday party, while the rest was left to the housekeeper.

It's not like she has nothing to do after eating so she would throw a birthday party for her enemy.

She doesn't care how effective it is, because it's not her face that's being lost anyway.

At this time, Qin Guangyao and Qin Lingyun, at the signal of Old Lady Qin, greeted Li Jingwan, "Hello, Aunt."

Both of them were dressed extremely solemnly and gorgeously.

"Brother Yao, Sister Yun, you called me the wrong name." Old Madam Qin reminded with a smile, "Why are you calling me 'aunt'? You should change your way of speaking."

The two understood and were about to change the name, but Li Jingwan said, "Don't worry, let's do it after the adoption ceremony."

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Madam Qin tried to smooth things over, "Yes, after the ceremony, I will change my words in front of the guests."

She smiled on the surface, but sneered in her heart.

Even if Li Jingwan was unhappy, she had to endure it.

She took care of the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion.

Li Jingwan's fate is also controlled by her.

-

In the morning, guests arrived one after another.

Li Jingwan and Qin Changzhou stood at the gate of the Marquis's mansion to welcome the guests.

"Master Chen, please come in."

"Master Liu, you are a rare guest, please come in."

"Master Wen, I have been waiting for a long time. Thank you for taking the time to come."

......

Li Jingwan responded with a fake smile, until she saw the general's carriage, the smile on her face became genuine.

"Mom, this is Lang Qing." Li Jingwan went up to him.

Li Huirou is not married yet, so she cannot attend the ceremony.

"Are you tired?" Yao held her hand. "It's hot today. How long have you been standing?"

"Fortunately, the sun doesn't shine outside the door." Li Jingwan said with a smile.

"Sister, please go in and have a rest. I'll watch over you." Li Langqing suggested.

"I don't need your help." Li Jingwan rubbed his head.

Qin Changzhou came over at this time and said, "Meet mother-in-law."

Facing him, the smile on Yao's face disappeared and she nodded slightly.

"Lord Wu'an is very busy, and I finally get to see him."

It was an implicit criticism that he never accompanied Li Jingwan back to her parents' home.

After studying with Tao Bopei, Li Langqing became more eloquent, "Mother, the Marquis is busy taking concubines."

Qin Changzhou was extremely embarrassed, and afraid that others might hear him, so he spoke in a timid voice.

"Mother-in-law, you misunderstood. Changzhou is indeed busy with official duties..."

"Mom, you and Lang Qing go in." Li Jingwan didn't want to listen to his hypocritical explanation, "There's a play going on inside, go and choose two plays."

As he spoke, he winked at Li Langqing and praised him secretly.

Li Langqing also blinked and decided to ask Tao Bopei for advice on speaking skills when he returned.

After Yao went in, Qin Changzhou looked a little ugly and spoke to Li Jingwan in an unfriendly tone.

"Why didn't you help me explain just now?"

"Why do I have to explain?" Li Jingwan asked with a smile, "Did they say something wrong?"

Qin Changzhou became even more angry.

It seemed that since this morning, Li Jingwan's attitude towards him had become cold again.

Could it be that she is still dissatisfied with Yao'er's siblings being adopted?

This is not her choice!

After the birthday party, he will establish his authority over her.

As soon as Yao entered, the ladies of the noble families who had arrived earlier came forward and surrounded her to greet her.

Although Li Dingzheng is no longer with us, the prestige of the General's Mansion still exists, and the power of the Yao family should not be underestimated.

Old Madam Qin felt very dissatisfied when she saw Yao, who was the center of attention.

These ladies from wealthy families were not so attentive to her.

Sun, who was standing by, looked at the pearls and jade on Yao's head with envy, "This is worth a lot of money."

Old Madam Qin glared at her unhappily. It would be better for this daughter-in-law to stay at her parents' home and not come back. She looked so unpresentable.

Qin Guangyao and Qin Lingyun stood behind Old Madam Qin, looking at the graceful and elegant Yao with envy and pride.

They had always heard that Li Jingwan's family was rich and powerful, so when Li Jingwan got married, she had a dowry of 120 sets. When they met Yao today, they found that her reputation was well-deserved.

Old Madam Qin had already spent a large sum of money to make clothes and buy jade pendants for Qin Guangyao, but Li Langqing, who came with Yao, was obviously dressed much better than him.

Qin Guangyao was jealous, but he comforted himself that all these would be his in the future anyway.

Yao went forward to greet Old Madam Qin, and also greeted Sun, but she ignored Qin Guangyao and the other two, and didn't even ask a question.

The ladies around Yao all knew that the adoption ceremony would be held today. When they greeted Old Madam Qin just now, Old Madam Qin told them all.

But seeing that Yao didn't say a word, everyone wondered if she was dissatisfied with the adoption.

After all, these two people will become Li Jingwan's legitimate son and daughter.

Old Madam Qin was very embarrassed and secretly cursed Li Jingwan for not doing her job well. She forced a smile and took the initiative to introduce herself.

"Madam Li, this is my great-grandson Qin Guangyao, and this is my great-daughter Qin Lingyun. They are all Chongxiao's children and have been living with him in the northwest."

"After they returned home three years ago, Jingwan liked them very much and treated them as her own children, so today, on Changzhou's birthday, she wants to..."

As she was speaking, Lady Zheng, wife of Duke Cai, came over and interrupted her.

"Mrs. Li, long time no see."

"Mrs. Zheng." Yao smiled, "I was just wondering if you would come today."

"Of course I'm coming." Zheng held her hand affectionately, "I came here today mainly to see you."

She realized it belatedly and asked, "Did I interrupt you just now?"

Yao shook her head and smiled, "No, and I didn't say anything important."

Old Madam Qin was so angry that she could hardly maintain her expression, and Qin Guangyao and his sister also looked unhappy.

The Yao family didn't take them seriously at all.
