The wealthy man who wears books

"You mean that crazy woman? But isn't she locked up in the side courtyard over there, and is there someone to guard her? How did she get into the misfortune of the eldest lady?"

"You don't know, that lunatic sneaked out this morning and touched the young master's yard, making a lot of noise, saying that he was looking for her son, Lao Qi. If it wasn't for being slapped by Sister Que'er to scare him Let’s go, I guess there will be trouble.”

"That lunatic is dirty and smelly. It's really annoying to look at. Sister Que'er's slap is really refreshing. But if that's the case, what does this matter have to do with our eldest lady?"

"The moldy head is here. Do you know why that crazy woman sneaked out? I heard people say that today is her birthday! Although she is crazy, she probably still remembers this in her heart, so she ran out to find that You bastard. Our family already cares about the date of birth. It's okay for the young miss to not know about it before. How can I be happy when I hear my Fang Chen collided with that lunatic?"

"So that's how it is. On such an auspicious day, it's such a funeral. It's no wonder that Missy suddenly has a headache..."

Qin Huai felt his heart tugging inexplicably.

It turned out that Miss Zhong's happy day happened to also be Zhong Xin's mother's birthday.That poor crazy woman actually knew that on this special day, she came to look for her only relative in the world.

However, not only did her son not dare to wish his mother's birthday openly, but on the contrary, he witnessed his mother being slapped in the face in full view.

The two girls on the other side of the flower wall chatted a few more words, and then hurried away.

Qin Huai secretly raised his eyes to look at Zhong Xin's face, only to find that at this moment, he was standing quietly with his right hand on a willow tree, but he didn't show any strange expression. The hem of the long-colored gown did not even shake.

This person is really tolerant.

Qin Huai felt emotional in his heart, watching Zhong Xin withdraw his palm from the tree trunk, and stood up straight.But in that flash, the sharp-eyed Qin Huai suddenly discovered that there was a piece of white bark where Zhong Xin raised his hand.Looking at the wound on the tree trunk, it was evident that someone had just taken it off.

Not far ahead, a corner of the Jin Pavilion has appeared, which is the Pinxiao Hall where the eldest daughter of the Zhong family, Zhong Yu, celebrates her birthday.At this moment, the sound of drum music is coming, showing the prosperity and excitement of the wealthy mansion.But amidst the festive din, there seemed to be a vague sigh that drifted into Qin Huai's ears.

This Pinxiao Hall is the largest pavilion in the back garden of Zhong's family. It faces Cuanxin Stream at its back and has a huge terrace in front. When the weather is fine, family banquets are often held here.

At this moment, according to the rules of male east and female west, no less than ten tables have been set up.All the tables and chairs were made of high-quality huanghuali. Among them were long-necked vases from Ding Kiln filled with seasonal flowers.

When Qin Huai and Zhong Xin stepped into the balcony, the men and women of the clan who were already seated on the table cast their gazes over in unison.

When they saw Qin Huai, who was wearing a black brocade gown, with a clean face and no trace of makeup, everyone in the banquet seemed quite surprised.

The chief on the west side, sitting in the middle is Mrs. He Yiru, the eldest wife of the Zhong family.When she saw several dignified female family members at the banquet, after seeing Qin Huai, they all had questioning expressions in their eyes, and waved towards Qin Huai.

"Boss daughter-in-law, come here to meet some elders in the clan."

At that time, among the rich and famous families, there were not a few good men who married male wives, so the female family members of these clans were not surprised that Zhong Xin married a man who filled the house.

It's just that I heard that the new grandma of the big family is not only from a humble background, but also is always decorated in a beautiful family, with coquettish eyebrows and eyes, and she is very unmanly.Therefore, most of these people are in the mood of watching the excitement today, wanting to see how unbearable the son-in-law of the Zhong family is.

After the death of the master of the Zhong family, He Yiru, as the head of the Zhong family's back house, has a slight advantage in each house, but in front of his overbearing son Zhong Ren, who acts strangely, he is helpless.

It was about the matter of Zhong Ren picking a "young man" to be his husband's wife. Although He Yiru was unwilling to do so, he couldn't persuade his son at all, so he could only watch him marry a common man. The flamboyant stuff is back.

Fortunately, she also knew that the main purpose of this son-in-law was to help her son fight poison with poison. To put it bluntly, she was just a medicine primer made by a living person.As long as Zhong Ren cured the yang poison on him, he would just use the leftover medicine dregs in the future and just throw it away.So even though he is not in my eyes, since he still has medicinal properties for the time being, he can only accommodate his status as the eldest mistress, and let him out when it is time to appear.

As a top student in the chemical engineering department, Qin Huai always stared at the utensils and materials when doing experiments, observing the most subtle and subtle changes. It can be said that he has developed a pair of extremely keen eyes.

The moment he entered Pinxiao Hall, he had a panoramic view of all the seats on the terrace.Whether it was the male guests on the east side or the female family members on the west side, none of the gazes cast on him escaped Qin Huai's eyes.

It's just that, unlike the curious or obscene scrutiny of the male guests, on the female family's side, most of what caught Qin Huai's eyes was contempt and surprise after contempt.

Apparently, the makeup of the man and wife in the big house was completely different from the usual ones, and the handsome looks highlighted after changing the makeup surprised these women who wanted to see a joke.

Qin Huai quickened his pace, walked up to the head of the female guests, bowed to everyone on the table, stood up straight again, and said to He Yiru who was sitting in the head seat, "Ma'am, please be well."

He Yiru, like the other female family members, was a little surprised by his clothes today, and even his decent performance, and was even a little surprised that he didn't lose face to the Zhong family as soon as he appeared.

But after all, she was used to seeing the world, so she just nodded, pointed to the prominent female family members of the clan on the table, introduced them to Qin Huai one by one, and said with a smile, "After all, your status is different now, so you will be at the banquet of our girls." Just sit down, as for the male guests, Uncle Jiu and a group of seniors are here, wait for the boss to come back later, and then take you there to meet, Que'er, let the eldest and youngest mistress take a seat!"

Qin Huai saluted, and followed the disgusted Que'er to his table.

The table where he was sitting was the third seat on the west side, and the people seated there were all married young female relatives from various households in the clan.On the second table away from the chief, there was a girl from the Zhong clan who had not left the court.You must know that inside the gate of the mansion, the young lady who has not left the cabinet is the most honorable and noble lady, and she is the real and legitimate guest.

As soon as he walked to the third table, it was a plump and beautiful young woman who caught Qin Huai's eyes first.

The young woman seemed to be only 24 or [-] years old, with bright facial features and a springy pink face, but her figure was obviously much plumper than other female relatives.Seeing Qin Huai lifting himself up to take his seat, he lifted his eyelids a little, and there was an air of arrogance in his expression, as if he didn't take Qin Huai, the eldest mistress, seriously at all.At this moment, the sky is clear and cool, neither hot nor cold, only there is a girl standing behind her, who is constantly shaking her fan.

Qin Huai's thoughts changed sharply.In his impression, the young women of the Zhong family's age, apart from the married eldest lady Zhong Yu, are the young mistresses of the second room.And Zhong Yu is the protagonist of today's banquet, so naturally he will not sit in this seat, so the person in front of him, presumably, is Yu Tinglan, the wife of Second Young Master Zhong Yi.

Qin Huai remembered that Yu Tinglan was a formidable character in the book, and among all the female family members of the Zhong family, she was the most powerful.Moreover, this person is not only arrogant, capable and pungent, but also covets the right to be the head of the Zhong family's back house.

It turns out that according to the rules of the Zhong family, the first choice for the head of the inner house is the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the big house.It's just that Zhong Ren married several wives and concubines one after another, but there were frequent changes, so that no one was available.Since no one in the long house can take over the power from the eldest wife, Yu Tinglan, the second young mistress, naturally felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of her.

Unexpectedly, suddenly, Zhong Ren married another male wife.

Although the male and young lady looks like an embroidered pillow, after all, the identity of the big house is there, which invisibly adds obstacles to Yu Tinglan's road to power.Therefore, she hated and hated Qin Huai from the bottom of her heart, and she always wanted to find an opportunity to show the other party's ugliness and let everyone know that this rich man and wife are useless idiots.

She was more than four months pregnant at the moment, and she sat on the seat for a long time, her face was full of impatience.After seeing Qin Huai taking his seat, his whole person looked completely new, he was both surprised and unhappy, and the boredom emerged more and more.In a pair of eyes, he didn't even bother to cover up, but was full of hostility and contempt.

Qin Huai saw her naked hostility in his eyes, and knew in his heart that if Qin Huai was the cowardly and fearful Qin Huai in the past, he would be at a loss and flustered under Ting Lan's cold eyes and contempt at this moment.So the current self, do you want to restore his past appearance to the greatest extent?

Do not!

Qin Huai shook the cuffs of his long gown, the black brocade shone with flowing luster in the sunlight, more and more showing off the cleanliness and clarity of a handsome man.

He nodded slightly to the female relatives in the seat, and straightened his waist naturally.Then, facing Ting Lan's hostile gaze, not only did he not avoid it, but he generously gave him a smiling look.

There was neither flattery nor timidity in those eyes, it looked open and frank, neither humble nor overbearing, but it had the identity that a young mistress of a big house should have.

Ever since Qin Huai passed through the book, he has been in a state of nervousness and always on the alert, and it is inevitable that he will be depressed.At this time, although he just smiled at the other party indifferently, it seemed to let out a breath of boredom, and the whole body was in a good mood.

Because he knew that even though he was at odds with Qin Huaisu's usual idiot, he still had to do it.Now that he has entered the world in the book, he has no choice but to be bold and careful, and change Qin Huai's fate step by step, so that he can survive in this murderous mansion.

Yu Tinglan was shocked by the smile on Qin Huai's face.

For a wealthy young woman who has been aggressive since she was a child and has been fighting among women all the year round, she understands the meaning hidden in this smile all too well.

This idiot husband and wife who was despised by her in the past made her feel an indescribable strangeness when she showed up today.

Yu Tinglan knew that people in a wealthy family were fighting all the time, no matter how stupid people were, they would become smarter after living here for a long time.What surprised her was that this man named Qin Huai would change so quickly.

And such an accident made Yu Tinglan a little irritable for no reason.

The girl behind her, Jin'er, felt a little unwell last night and stayed up half the night.At this time, after standing for a long time, my head was a little dizzy, and the folding fan in my hand suddenly loosened, and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

The sound seemed to ignite the gunpowder in Yu Tinglan's stomach, completely detonating her restlessness.She threw the silk handkerchief in her hand on the table, turned around and snatched the folding fan that Jin'er had just picked up, and stabbed hard at Jin'er's thin and slender waist. .
