Returning to Prince’s Mansion of Xihe, Xiaran submitted a letter and reported, “This was from a family whose surname is also Qiu.”
“Got it.” Qiu Yelan took it and looked at it. In addition to some of the usual words, it said that they wanted to pay a visit three days later. So, Qiu Yelan told Xiaran, “Is the person who sent the post still there? If he is, tell him that I would be here waiting three days later.”
Xiaran answered and went out to instruct a young maid to pass on the message.
Chunran then asked, “Is this Qiu Bo among these guests the one we met at the entrance of the examination compound last time?”
“It should be her.” Qiu Yelan remembered when she entrusted “Tianya” to block the two tenders that sent by Mrs. Gu, Xiaran witnessed the three brothers and sisters of Qiu Family happened to pass by. She sneered, “This Qiu Qian, should be their young sister.” So she ordered, “Prepare one more seat in the girl’s school, as well as books and stationery.”
Although Ruan Qingyan said that there was no need to take special care of this Qiu Qian, however, now the girl’s school was funded by Prince’s Mansion. Thus, Qiu Yelan didn’t mind being generous. Moreover, this also showed her attention to Qiu Qian. This would not only help Ruan Qingyan get close to Qiu Nie, but also showed favour to Qiu Qian in the girl’s school, so the little girl would not be looked down on because of her origin and family. To a potential teammate, Qiu Yelan was very caring.
But after the table and chairs were added, Shao Yuemei came over.
Qiu Yelan personally went out to welcome her into the house. The teacher and student greeted for a while, and Shao Yuemei asked directly, “I just saw servants sent some furniture to the school, is there someone new to enroll?”
“I just heard the shopkeeper of ‘Renqing Pharmacy’ said, a friend and schoolmate of my cousin has a younger sister who hopes to be taught by a famous teacher, so I think there is no other female teachers in Jing City could be more famous than you. And I remember that you said that you want more students to be in school, so I invite her discretionarily.” Qiu Yelan said,“ I just came back and told maid, and I am going to freshen up and tell you.”
Actually, this was not the truth. She asked Shao Yuemei to refuse to accept other students before but was rejected. Although she did nothing to Shao Yuemei because of her relationships and network, she remained very unhappy.
So this time, she deliberately decided the thing without discussing it with Shao Yuemei. What she meant was, as a female teacher who was hired by the boss, if you didn’t listen to the boss, you would never be given face then.
Shao Yuemei smiled gently, “This is fine, but I don’t know how old is this new female young master? What kind of books has she read before? I would like to prepare in advance.”
“She is twelve now, and the shopkeeper is unclear about the other things. How about asking it after she comes later?” Qiu Yelan thought that she just knew the name of this new classmate after reading the letter, so how could she know some more?
Failing to know more about this new student, Shao Yuemei turned to other topics. The teacher and the student talked for a while, and then had dinner together. Shao Yuemei greeted and left— not long after she went back to her own place, her maid Huanhua quietly left Prince’s Mansion and entered a nearby courtyard.
“Did Madam Shao call you to come back?” Huanhua was walking towards the house where Jiang Qizheng lived, but happened to meet Jiang Qisheng on the way there. Jiang Qisheng stopped her and asked, “Is it about the bitch named Qiu again?”
Huanhua knew she was arrogant, so quickly replied with a smile, “It’s for the new student who would enroll in the girl’s school. She is recommended by Commandery Princess Ningyi.”
“She is notorious, so why care about her?” Jiang Qisheng said with his arms on her hips, as well as a somber face, “Is 19th brother unable to marry no one else? Must her?”
Huanhua knew that Jiang Qizheng was also disappointed with Commandery Princess Ningyi, but Shao Yuemei had debuted as a female teacher at the age of 16 and has grown to her current status. She has her own way of dealing with things.
She went to Prince’s Mansion of Xihe to be a female teacher because of the order of Jiang Family. Now, although Jiang Qizheng has expressed her position, the words in private cannot be taken seriously. There was still no clear exclusion that Commandery Princess Ningyi would not become the daughter-in-law of Jiang Family, so she would still do what she should do.
Huanhua did not dare to follow Jiang Qisheng’s words, nor dare to refute. So she only smiled obsequiously, “I know nothing as a maid! I just send a message to Your Highness.”
Jiang Qisheng rolled her eyes and said, “Let me go with you!”
Huanhua and her just came to Jiang Qizheng’s yard, but found that Jiang Qizheng was about to go out. When she saw Huanhua, she stopped and asked for some questions. After knowing the whole story, she just said without showing any inclination, “Got it. You could go back.”
Huanhua had trained by Shao Yuemei not to be long-tongued, so she immediately left after she heard the words.
However, Jiang Qisheng didn’t leave with her, she pulled Jiang Qizheng and said, “18th sister, you really want to see our brother marry with that woman next door? Her reputation! Do our family has to bear this?”
Jiang Qizheng was also very opposed to Qiu Yelan to marry into the family. But she hated more about Jiang Qisheng kicking Jiang Yashuang in Yunyi Restaurant. So she replied lukewarmly, “Sister Jiang Qisheng, you go too far. Our grandfather and grandmother are both here. The elders, they would take care of the marriage of 19th brother. And our third uncle and third aunt hadn’t said anything, why should you worry about this?”

“You…” Jiang Qisheng had never expected this gentle cousin would stab her with words, so this infuriated her. She shook her sleeves off and said, “Great! Great! You brother and sister can’t favor those outsiders more. I know it! You guys do not know chalk from cheese!”
Jiang Qizheng usually has a good temper, but indeed, she was also spoiled when she grew up. Actually, she would not be afraid if she really quarrels with her cousin. So she said coldly at the moment, “How could we compare to you, 17th sister! Just for Cousin Tao, I ’m afraid you even could sell 19th brother as an exchange! I almost feel that Cousin Tao is your reborn parent! So that you help her with all your effort! How respectful is the 19th brother to you? Cousin Tao just cried, and you beat him even without asking! You know what, even our grandfather and grandmother, they haven’t hurt even a finger of him!”
Jiang Qisheng now realized why Jiang Qizheng had such a bad attitude towards her. But she refused to admit her mistake, “I just can’t bear him always protecting that Qiu! Besides, did I hurt him? He learned martial art. If he could not have even endured such a tiny woman’s fist, what had he learned?!”
If it wasn’t for the good manner she had learned since childhood, Jiang Qizheng would simply want to give her a slap, “I agree what 19th brother said, I also had nothing to talk with you— it’s better to go to the third aunt to ask for justice!” After she finished these words, she ignored her, and directly going off in a huff, towards Madame Tao’s yard.
Only leave Jiang Qisheng anxiously stamping her feet, “Do you know something else other than telling the elders? How shameless you are?!”
Jiang Qizheng arrived at Madame Tao’s yard after she had known that Jiang Yashuang had gone back to learn calligraphy. Nowadays Madame Tao has no other juniors in front of her, so seeing her coming, she smiled and asked, “It’s so late, how do you come?”
“I miss you, so I come and accompany you.” Jiang Qizheng and Jiang Yashuang were twins, and both of them were raised by Madame Tao and Madame Tao Junior. Naturally, they were closer to them than other children of Jiang Family. Jiang Qizheng said while saluting, and then she came over to massage Madame Tao’s shoulders.
Madame Tao closed her eyes because of feeling comfortable, enjoying the service of the children, but she smiled, “This is not true, you must have come for something.”
Jiang Qizheng pretended to be angry, “Could grandmother pretending to be less smart, so her granddaughter could be telling some sweet words?”
“I really want, but your face is full of thoughts, and it’s so hard for me to not notice it!” Madame Tao smiled, “Okay, I would know even if you say nothing. Are you coming for Qiu Family’s child matter?”
“Nothing can’t be concealed from my grandmother.” Jiang Qizheng said sweetly, “Granddaughter would not hide anything before you— this girl doesn’t match my brother!”
Madame Tao said with a smile, “You said this before, and I told you that I didn’t think the child did wrong— so you find some new reasons?”
“No matter what, hard-hearted people would always be hardhearted. Especially, Jiang Qisheng and Cousin Tao had offended her, even including 8th brother.” Jiang Qizheng just came back from Prince’s Mansion of Xihe, and came to Madame Tao at once with anxiety. She really hoped to terminate this marriage immediately, so she could also call back Shao Yuemei as soon as possible. Unfortunately, Madame Tao disagreed.
She was sent back to her house and she racked her brains to think about it for a long time before finally got a new reason. “So, once she marries into our family, I am afraid that there would be no peace anymore.” And she added, “Even though our family owed her this time, we could then compensate her for some other things. There is no need to pay her our 19th brother, right?”
Madame Tao smiled and said, “You probably don’t know, but actually at that night, Yashuang crossed the wall and told her about the marriage.”
Jiang Qizheng was shocked, “What?”
“But she refused.” Madame Tao said with a soft smile, “If this girl is really such a heart-wrenching and unscrupulous person, why do you say she refused to marry Yashuang? To be honest, even for the royal princesses, except Yongfu, there are definitely a lot of girls who want to marry him!”
Prince of Yan, Prince of Zhou, these princes who got titles were still respecting Jiang Family’s children. So, you know that “the wife of Jiang Yashuang,” how tempting such a position was!
Of course, Jiang Qizheng also knew this at this moment. She couldn’t help but stop doing the massage to Madame Tao, and she wondered, “She refused?! What did she think?”
Madame Tao said, “Don’t wonder what she had thought. Just think about her refusal, which is enough to prove that she is not the kind of person you think! If it changes to another person, who would be willing to miss such a great opportunity? Yashuang is the most well-behaved and considerate boy in the heir of our family. There are few people could be compared with him, even those noble families, who puffed themselves as having the best family education!”
Jiang Qizheng suddenly felt a little embarrassed, “Yes, granddaughter had the wrong thought. But it doesn’t matter. You would take care of it, right?”
“Since you want me to give you some suggestions, so I remind you of something.” Madame Tao smiled, “You said that you noticed Mrs. Gu had a weird attitude towards the child, and deliberately asked them to go out to say something. Is it right?”
Jiang Qizheng said, “Yes…” she was a bit awakened at this point. “Do you mean Mrs. Gu had already expected that I would send someone to follow them?”
Madame Tao laughed, “You think about it one more time. If Mrs. Gu really asked the child, why did she show a look before other people? Not only to say that she humiliated herself in vain, but also the child would be criticized for disrespecting the elders if her attitude is heard later by Gu Family….”
Jiang Qizheng’s face suddenly blushed and she said, “This Mrs. Gu! After listening to maid’s words, I was quite sympathetic to her and Deng Yi. But I had never thought she… she actually…” When she didn’t doubt, she merely felt sympathetic. But now when she started her doubt, she felt, “I’m afraid that Deng Yi ‘s encounter may not be true, either! This person is really shameless! How could an elder, kneeling and pleading, only for discrediting Commandery Princess Ningyi….”
Madame Tao said with a light smile, “A daughter of a concubine in a big family, but could be able to make Guangyang old Princess to raise her as own daughter. How can she be innocent and weak?” And she comforted Jiang Qizheng, “You should not be too angry. Anyway, such despicable trick, Mrs. Gu dare to use it on that child, but would never dare to treat you like that! Just let it go as a tiny thing!”
… After Jiang Qizheng left, the servant lady who served Madame Tao asked curiously, “Had Mrs. Gu really known the people of Your Grace was following, so deliberately threw mud at Commandery Princess Ningyi?”
Madame Tao just laughed, when Mom Hu laughed but also scolded, “You care so much? Anyway, Gu Family doesn’t have any good person. Does such a tiny thing matter?”
