Chapter 181 What Sincerity Was It by Just Working Hard for You as Cattle and Horses?

After sending away Kuang Qingwu and Mr. Leshan, Qiu Yelan gave the jade box to Qiuran and asked her to put it in a storeroom that she rarely used. Then she returned to her room and took a nap. But soon she was told that Jiang Yashuang was here again. She was shocked suddenly, “Did anything go wrong?”

“No.” Su He shook her head, “It seems that he heard that Marquess Zhang’s son had been here, so he came over to ask about it.”

Qiu Yelan felt warm in her heart and hurriedly got up, complaining, “Even so, he could’ve just sent someone to come. Why does he come in person?”

Su He saw that there was no one in the inner room, so she boldly teased Yelan, “Perhaps he won’t feel tired anymore if he sees you.”

“Really?” Qiu Yelan patted on Su He’s forehead, “Whitey’s supper and midnight snack.”

“I won’t do it again.” Su He suddenly got a look of regret and said sorrowfully.

The two went out and hurried to the front hall. They saw Jiang Yashuang rolling up his sleeves and pacing in the hall. He looked really anxious.

“Why are you here again?” Qiu Yelan yelled as she stepped in, “Am I so easy to be bullied? Besides, Kuang Qingwu is not a fool. Last time, he could say he didn’t know me on the road. But we are at the Ruan Family now. He wouldn’t dare to make troubles here.”

Jiang Yashuang greeted her, “Those people just poisoned your brother yesterday. Who knows if there will be a poisoning plan today? How can I be assured that you won’t be hurt if I don’t come over to see you?”

Qiu Yelan glanced at his hair, which was bundled up carelessly and was not completely dry. She saw that the collar of the undershirt inside his shirt was also wet, so she could not help frowning, “Did you come out right after bathing? Your hair is still wet. You may get a headache after getting blown by the wind!”

“I’m in good health. It doesn’t matter.” Jiang Yashuang said indifferently, “Right, what did that Kuang guy say to you after getting here? Did he say anything offensive?”

Qiu Yelan said, “No, he knew how to behave this time, and left without much entanglement. Well, he also left two pills which seemed very precious, but how would I give his family’s pills to my brother? I’ve told the servant to throw them in the corner.”

But Jiang Yashuang frowned after he heard her words, “Did you touch the pills that they gave you? What if they wanted to use the pills to poison you? After all, they should know that you wouldn’t give the pills to your brother!”

“Well…” Qiu Yelan and Su He changed their look at the same time. Qiu Yelan said, “I didn’t touch them, but Qiuran…”

Qiuran was not here now, so Qiu Yelan hurriedly asked someone to find her.

“They aren’t necessarily poisonous. I just feel that you’d better protect yourself from those kinds of tricks. Ask Qi Shuluo to take a look at those pills later, OK?” Jiang Yashuang saw her frightened look and hurried to calm her down.

“Dr. Qi should be awake at this moment. Wrap the jade box with something and go ask him to check it now. Let Qiuran go with you and ask Dr. Qi to check up on her.” After hearing it, Qiu Yelan said to Su He immediately.

In order to treat Qiu Jinglan conveniently, Qi Shuluo was now living in the Ruan Family.

She turned her head and said to Jiang Yashuang, “Well, there is nothing else going on. Go back now. Wait, no, come with me.”

Jiang Yashuang, who was confused, was led into a room not far away. Just as he was wondering what Qiu Yelan wanted to do, he saw that she asked a maid to get some clean towels. After taking one, she walked to him and said, “Pull out your hairpins!”

“I’ll do it myself!” Only then did he realize that she wanted to help him dry his hair before he left. Jiang Yashuang could not help being flattered, and hurriedly tried to take the towel in her hand.

“Aren’t you tired enough to come here and then go back?” Qiu Yelan glared at him. “Take advantage of it, close your eyes, and take a nap. Aren’t you gonna go to your grandfather to ask for advice later?”

Jiang Yashuang said softly, “I don’t feel tired when I see you.”

It was exactly the same as Su He’s words before!

Even though Su He was not here now, Qiu Yelan couldn’t help smiling.

Jiang Yashuang was baffled and emphasized, “I’m serious!”

“Yes, yes, I know!” Qiu Yelan sighed and tiptoed to pull out the round hairpin in his hair. Pointing to the drum stool next to him, she said, “Pretend that I’m particularly virtuous today and want to serve you once. Thinking about how many opportunities like this you can have in your life. Don’t you want it?”

“Of course, I want it!” Jiang Yashuang saw that she insisted, so he no longer shied away. He sat down with a smile, and asked her to dry his hair, smiling slightly, “I don’t have anything worthy to return your favor. I can only give myself to you and be your husband forever!”

While drying his hair, Qiu Yelan was wondering, “Don’t you usually return the favor by working hard as cattle and horses?”

“Those people are not sincere!” Jiang Yashuang said in earnest, “How much is a cow or a horse? What can you do with that money? How can it be compared with my sincerity of being a husband? Let’s just talk about this life. Would I only be worth a few horses and cattle in the future?”

Qiu Yelan sighed and wanted to say something, but she couldn’t be relieved thinking about Qiu Jinglan, who was still lying in bed. The words turned into a long sigh, “If only my brother were fine!”

“He will be fine.” The atmosphere changed suddenly, and Jiang Yashuang was also disappointed. However, he immediately concealed this emotion and comforted her softly.

Then, the two didn’t speak anymore. After Jiang Yashuang’s long hair had been dried, Qiu Yelan failed to do his hair. So, she simply gave the hairpin to him and brought him a bronze mirror to let him do his hair.

After Jiang Yashuang got his hair done by using the mirror, he found that there was only Chen Shui helping in the room. He said, “I can’t stand it anymore. When I visit my grandfather today, I must ask him to help us!”

Qiu Yelan did not get it. She handed the bronze mirror back to Chen Shui and asked, “What do you mean?”

“There is no proper cause for me to be here.” Jiang Yashuang looked a little bit gloomy, “I just met Kuang Qingwu when I was on my way to come here, so I stopped him. He asked me what my relationship with you and the Ruan Family is. He said that who I am to question him if he had seen you or what he had done. And I didn’t know what to say.”

“…” Qiu Yelan was silent for a moment, and then she said, “Your family already knows about my brother’s birth. I don’t care about Deng Yi’s threat last time. But I’m not in the mood to deal with this right now.”

Jiang Yashuang got it, “Take care of the Ruan Family now, and wait for your brother to recover. I’ll deal with this. And it should be me to deal with it.”

“Go back now and be careful on your way back.” Qiu Yelan exhaled and nodded.

Jiang Yashuang decided to deal with it now. After leaving the Ruan Family, he didn’t return to the courtyard where Madame Tao lived, but went straight to Marquess Qin’s Mansion.

While Jiang Yashuang was going to seek help from Marquess Qin, Qiu Mengmin and his wife were gloating at the Prince’s Mansion of Xihe, “That little bastard is finally getting what he deserved! I hope he would just die. Without that bastard, the little b*tch wouldn’t be able to threaten us anymore.”

“In this case, Qiu Yuqing doesn’t have to stay in the Prince’s Mansion anymore, right?” Princess Yang frowned immediately after she let out a sigh of relief. “It’s not that I can’t stand her, but look at what she has done since he entered the Mansion. She acts like she is the Princess instead of me. And that’s not the worst. Commandery Princess Lihui, the daughter of Duchess of Huainan, hit Kang Lizhang several times. So what? After all, what Commandery Princess said is right. If Kang Lizhang hadn’t always suggested that they go to Jinxiu Slope, would Duchess of Huainan and Concubine Mo have been dead? What’s more, after hearing the bad news, County Princess Lixian got too sick to get out of her bed. She suffered so much just after giving birth. Her whole life might be…”

Qiu Mengmin got a headache hearing it and said, “Well, well. That’s enough. Don’t you just want her to leave the Prince’s Mansion? Find a reason to send her away with some money. Do you have to keep whining like an ignorant marketplace woman?”

Princess Yang complained, “It’s not that I keep whining, but your sister has kept coming to the Mansion of Duke of Huainan to force me to seek justice for Kang Lizhang. Didn’t she realize that we have all broken up with her daughter? Why would we seek justice for her?”

Then she started to say, “After treating her so well with good wine and food all these days, does she still want to get some money when she leaves? How much money? Now we don’t have much money in the Mansion!”

“Just give her some money. In short, don’t let her cause troubles after she leaves. It’s not like you don’t know her temper.” Qiu Mengmin stood up and frowned, “Just handle it. I’ll go and check on Mao Zhi. Bian said that he was coughing these days.”

“If only he would die because of coughing!” Princess Yang said bitterly after he left. “All the difficult and offensive tasks are given to me. He definitely knows how to pretend to be a good person! He wants to care for the bastard even in front of me. Has he ever cared so much for Yinzhi and Jinzhu all these years when they were sick?”

Xiuyan comforted, “Why bother to care about this? Bian concubine is always using different methods to win his favor. Would Young Master Qiu Hongzhi allow her to get all the attention? His wife is about to give birth. As for children, of course, the younger they are, the more attention they get. In the future, there will be lots of fights between them and Bian concubine. You can just sit back, waiting for them to hurt each other!”

Princess Yang felt better after hearing this and was about to say something. But the door was suddenly pushed open. It was Qiu Mengmin who came back with an angry look!

“Prince!” Xiuyan couldn’t help but get horrified.

Princess Yang saw his angry look and felt trembling. She quickly explained, “Prince, I didn’t mean that. That’s what Xiuyan said. I was about to reprimand her!”

Xiuyan was desperate when she heard the words. But Qiu Mengmin didn’t even mention Xiuyan’s words. He just came up, grabbed Princess Yang’s hand, almost dragged her into the inner chamber, and slammed the door forcefully.

“Prince, please listen to me! Listen to me!” Princess Yang only knew that he always loved Bian and her son. She thought that he was going to hit her because of them. She shouted as she was terrified and angry, “I did not even want to listen to Xiuyan. Anyway, I…”

“Yuqing…” Unexpectedly, Qiu Mengmin grabbed her, and they sat on the bed. After gasping for a moment, he whispered anxiously, “You… do as we planned before quickly. Have it done!”

“Ah?” Princess Yang froze.

Qiu Mengmin was so anxious to see her act like this. He pulled his shirt to reveal his chest, and there was an inconspicuous red mark on it, which was as wide as a finger. His skin was clearly scratched, but no blood oozed out.

Princess Yang was confused, “This was… accidentally scratched?”

“Look at my robe!” Qiu Mengmin gritted his teeth and said, “I was halfway there, and suddenly felt a pain when I took a look at it, a willow leaf was inserted into the skin where my heart is through my three robes. I immediately summoned the nearby Dark Guard to ask, but no one noticed it! It was only said that the attacker had reached a high level of martial arts. He was not someone that these guards could fight against!”

Princess Yang’s eyes rounded in shock, “Do you mean…”

“That man is so skilled at martial arts. How easy will it be for him to take our lives?” Qiu Mengmin looked terrified. “The reason why he only warned me instead of killing me is clear. Why else could it be? Only then we hoped that little b… that person… would…” Fearing the master with an unknown trace, Qiu Mengmin now dared not to mention Qiu Jinglan and Qiu Yelan with swear words, “But now it seems that instead of seeing bad things happen to them, we might die first if we still ignore what he said before.”

Princess Yang took a breath, shocked and almost paralyzed to the ground but soon she calmed herself down, “We have actually made arrangements already. It’s almost done. I originally planned to do it recently. Fortunately, I haven’t spoken to Yuqing yet. So what about now?”

“Do it now! The sooner, the better!” Qiu Mengmin wiped the cold sweat that couldn’t stop seeping from his forehead, trembling with his voice, “I just hope that little… that person can keep his promise. Even if he is not in good condition, I hope his confidants who are keeping an eye on us… can stop!”

The elite secret guards he carefully recruited were so vulnerable in front of the hidden forces of the Prince’s Mansion of Xihe.

After facing the recent death threats, Qiu Mengmin had now completely lost his interest in competing with Qiu Jinglan.

Title, wealth, power… no matter how good these things were, what was the point of getting them if he lost his life?

“Make arrangements now!” He grabbed Princess Yang’s arm and hissed, “We must have it done successfully this time!”
