The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 439

Although there were two tables, they were not far from each other, with a two-fold silk screen with a picture of flowers and birds singing in spring in the middle. The maids brought food boxes and were busy with dishes and chopsticks.

They were having dinner together, and it was also the first time that Qin Er saw Xu Lingbai after the results of the palace examination were announced.

Of course I had to congratulate him. Even though he was ranked in the top three, he was also considered to have entered the threshold of becoming an official in the court. The blush on Xu Lingbai's face had just faded away a little, but he was choked by the title of "Jinshi" and started coughing continuously, his face flushed and he looked very embarrassed.

Fortunately, Pei An and Xiao Bei massaged my back to help me calm down, and Ren Dong brought me some warm tea. After a lot of effort, the awkwardness was finally resolved.

"Second Master, I am ashamed to honor you."

Qin Youran blinked and asked in a low voice, "Did Master Xu pass the imperial examination?"

After receiving the affirmation, she was full of praise, "This year, there are few people who won the special examination. I heard that the eldest brother of the Liu family failed to make the list, but the third son of the Huang family won the first place in the second class."

This casual remark shocked Song Guanzhou and Xu Lingqiao.

Especially Xu Lingqiao, she actually dropped the spoon and it broke into several pieces on the ground. Wen Linghuan grabbed her and said, "Sister, don't pick it up. Be careful not to hurt your hands." She looked at Rendong and said, "Sister, bring a broom and sweep the broken pieces away."

"Thank you, Fourth Miss."

Song Guanzhou narrowed his eyes and looked at Qin Youran, "Are you talking about Huang Zhi?"

"Yes, does the fourth sister-in-law recognize him?"

Song Guanzhou nodded, "Of course I know him. I fell into the water earlier this year, and he and Liu Jiadalang helped me a lot. I called the people in the mansion to search everywhere."

Later we met from time to time, although not often.

but--

Isn’t he the third place in the imperial examination?

In the original story, he is Pei An's lifelong political enemy...

Qin Youran nodded, "It's Sanlang. He is having a double blessing now. The first place in the second class is also a good title. In addition, I heard that he and Sister Yunzhi are getting married in the winter month."

If the previous sentence made Xu Lingqiao feel that there was no possibility for them to be together anymore, then this sentence made Xu Lingqiao fall into a cold abyss.

Her whole body was cold, and the heart in her chest was broken into pieces, even more broken and pitiful than the spoon she had just dropped.

No wonder!

I have been waiting for so long but still haven't heard a single word. So that's it...

Her internal organs felt as if they were poisoned by arsenic and screamed in pain, but in front of everyone, she gritted her teeth and endured it, pinching her palms.

Song Guanzhou didn't know the reasons, so he asked a few more questions, "He hasn't even married yet. Now that he has achieved fame, and is the groom, it's really a double blessing. Aunt Huang can finally take a break."

Qin Youran tilted her head and thought for a long time. "In fact, the third brother of the Huang family should have been married a long time ago. He and Sister Yunzhi had been engaged since they were young, but Sister Yunzhi was in mourning, and it seems that she only got out of mourning at the beginning of this year."

"Dongyue, it seems that there are many happy events in the capital this year."

Qin Youran smiled and said, "Of course, it's just that our Fourth Miss Wen doesn't like Second Brother, otherwise it would be a good thing this year."

"Don't bring me into this. I'm a coarse person and I'm not worthy of your second brother, who is so elegant and graceful."

Qin Er: "Wen Si, this is just a screen, not a stone wall as thick-skinned as you are. I can hear it!"

Wen Linghuan chuckled, "You can't even be praised? You're really hard to please."

After saying that, he even winked at Qin Youran and said, "Tell me, this man is even more pretentious than a girl. He's always making a fuss and he doesn't seem to be steady at all."

Qin Qingdong snorted coldly, but it was useless in front of Wen Linghuan.

Xiao Bei persuaded them to drink, but the women continued to laugh and chat, "In short, when the snow falls in the last month of winter, there are many weddings and funerals. The Jin family has two this year, wow, it's so lively."

Jin family?

Song Guanzhou remained calm and asked casually, "Jin family, is it Jin Fuyun?" At this point, Qin Qingdong and Pei An on the other side of the screen put down their chopsticks, raised their eyes to look towards the screen, and pricked up their ears to listen.

"The fourth sister-in-law is none other than Miss Jin. This year, she and her cousin Jin Si will both be getting married."

"A dignified and virtuous woman like your eldest daughter, whoever she marries into, will be blessed by that family in their eight lifetimes."

"It's set in stone. It's the Prince of Yong."

Speaking of this, Qin Youran sighed slightly, "It won't be long before Miss Jin will be the Princess of a County." Princess of a County?

What a majestic and resounding name.

Song Guanzhou lowered his eyes slightly, and a flash of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, gloomy and sharp, but her straight and thick eyelashes vaguely covered up the coldness in her heart.

"Then we should go to the princess's villa to have a wedding banquet in the future. After all, Jin Fuyun is also our Silang's close friend."

When the word "close friend" came out, Pei An could hear the sarcasm in Song Guanzhou's voice.

He sighed almost inaudibly, raised his cup and drank it all in one gulp.

"The marriage of a prince is a grand occasion." Qin Youran wanted to say a few more words, but she heard Qin Qingdong's voice coming from the other side of the screen, "Am I also envious of others for getting a husband of my dreams?"

As soon as the words fell, Qin Youran immediately stopped talking.

"…My second brother is so vicious."

She stuck out her tongue and quickly spread the dishes to eat. Song Guanzhou's eyes deepened and he asked calmly, "Your second brother is a playboy himself, but he comes to reprimand you. The Jin family is well-educated, and the girl can become a princess of a county. Isn't she a role model for girls in the boudoirs of the world?"

It was not until this moment that Xu Lingqiao raised her eyes from her broken heart and saw the bloodthirsty eyes of her cousin.

She quickly held Song Guanzhou's hand under the table, "Guanzhou——"

Song Guanzhou restrained his emotions slightly, "It's okay, this envy... is also envy." After the meal, Qin Qingdong pulled Pei An to hide aside, "Master He still has no clue about this matter? What do you think?"

"Just wait."

but--

He whispered to Qin Qingdong, "We just got some news. Let's go to the master later."

Qin Qingdong waved his fan nonchalantly, "I just came back from the master a few days ago. He and Uncle Wang are both in good health now. What's the important matter?"

Pei An whispered, "Let's go together later."

It was very mysterious. Qin Qingdong said to Xiao Bei and Xu Lingbai who were chatting on the corridor, "Where are they?"

"No. And don't make any noise. We'll keep it low-key."

Sure enough, when Qin Youran and Wen Linghuan went to say goodbye to Xiao Yinxiu, Qin Qingdong entrusted the task of sending the two girls to Alu and Chun Ge, "Send them there safely. They are both very active, so if they want to get off the car halfway, don't let them."

Especially Wen Si, who is willful and bold. If he really runs away with the second sister, that would be the end of us.

After everything was done and Song Guanzhou took a nap, Pei An got up and left.

The two of them galloped along the way, urging their horses to gallop wildly. They took a break only after they left the city. However, as they were walking, they realized that the direction was wrong. Qin Qingdong pulled the reins and asked, "Erlang, what are you doing?"

"Just go."
