  Qiu Qiuniang's house.

  "Girl, don't drop it, this inkstone from Songluo Mountain weighs ten taels!"

  "Miss, be careful not to drop it, the Minglan porcelain vase from Jing Town will have to be returned to the warehouse later!"

  "Miss, don't fall, the peony hairpin was a gift from the mistress!"

  "Girl, don't fall..."

  Fortunately, the voice was intentionally lowered, otherwise if someone heard it, how could they not think that having a temper and throwing things would be impossible to do as one pleases. This young lady is really being wronged.

  "What reason is this, really what reason is this!" Qiu Qiuniang finally hugged a bamboo pillow, viciously slammed it to the ground, and stomped on it with her feet two times, almost spraining her foot. Fortunately, she was caught by her personal maid, Er Chun.

  "Miss, don't be angry, it's not worth it." Early spring was timid and wanted to let go of his hand, but didn't dare to.

  "What's not worth it? You tell me." Qiu Qiuniang glared at Zao Chun.

  Early spring was just a casual remark, Zhang had been talking for half a day without answering a single word, and suddenly let Qiu Qiuniang pinch him, the pain made his eyes well up with tears.

  "If you dare cry out loud, I'll make you kneel on the stone slab for a whole day." Qiu Qiuniang was furious today.

  Can't bear it? It was clearly her turn to show off to Qiu San Niang, but instead Qiu San Niang ended up showing off to her.

  "Girl..." With a choked sob, she finally managed to comfort herself, "Why bother with Third Miss? When the Duke's family comes to propose to Mother, you'll marry out in glory. Not just Snow Pear Flower, even the moon in the sky, your husband will be able to pluck it for you."

  Such comfort obviously had an effect, and Qiu Qiuniang's mood calmed down.

  "It's all right, let her be proud for now. She can buy a pear flower, but she can't capture the heart of a lady." The bright red lips spat out tenderly, "You saw it last night, didn't you?"

  "Look, of course look. " Early spring's head was like a chicken pecking at rice, "Wei Yiniang took off the bangle on her hand and gave it to the young lady, isn't this a sign that she likes the young lady? I've never seen such a beautiful bangle before."

  Qiu Qiuniang's face was as radiant as the sun breaking through the clouds, and with a flick of her wrist, the candlelight danced across the glittering gold bangle on her arm. The intricate grapevine pattern etched into the metal seemed to come alive, entwining itself around her skin in a mesmerizing display of craftsmanship that rivaled even the finest artisans of Luozhou. Only the imperial capital could possibly produce something so exquisite. No wonder she was determined to marry into the Jingwang estate, where she would finally be able to hold her head high and live a life free from worry, with even the likes of Zhangshi seeking her favor. For this goal, she would stop at nothing, making enemies of anyone who dared stand in her way. She had thought that she had already won over Zhangshi's affections, having invested so much effort into currying favor with her, unlike Liu Niang, who always seemed weak and timid. But little did she know, Zhangshi was actually pushing for Liu Niang to be chosen, leaving Qiu Qiuniang seething with rage.

  She's not stupid, she knows that relying on oneself is better than relying on others. Despite Zhang Shi's dissatisfaction, she made a great effort to show off and indeed, Wei Shi was more pleased with her performance last night than with Liu Niang. However, if she can't win back Zhang Shi's heart, even if the Wang family has good intentions, it will still come to nothing.

  Let Zao Chun hold the lantern, Qiu Qiuniang went to the main courtyard to see Zhang Shi. Even if she humbled herself, she had to show Zhang Shi her willingness to be controlled by him in order to regain his trust. Since childhood, she understood that being Miss Seven meant having gains and losses. However, everything would only be temporary. As long as she waited for her to marry into the family and gain favor with her husband, what did it matter if she was a concubine?

  All the way, I was thinking about how to persuade Zhang's wife, but unexpectedly, I was met with a closed door. The little girl guarding the gate said that the lady had gone to bed early today and fell asleep after dinner. But she saw the lights inside shining brightly, five or six maids and women standing under the corridor, where did they look like they were resting? Is it true that she is angry with me and deliberately cold-shouldering me?

  Qiu Qiuniang felt a pang of fear in her heart. She had seen clearly how Zhang Shi dealt with San Niang. After all, San Niang was the eldest daughter born to the first wife, and she still had Master's support. Her father didn't love her, and her biological mother was timid, if Zhang Shi were to turn against her, she would be in a terrible state. Only now did she start to feel afraid. But she couldn't force her way in to beg for mercy, so she could only dejectedly turn around and leave.

  In the main courtyard, although Zhang's family didn't really rest, they didn't intentionally ignore her either. It was just that Qiu Qiuniang arrived a step late. The servant girl in front had received the order to close the courtyard and would intercept anyone who came, no matter who it was. After intercepting them, she immediately reported back to An Paozi, the one in charge.

  "Madam, just now Seventh Sister came over. You had instructed to bar the door, so she was turned back."

  "About time you remembered me! Good job blocking her. Block a few more times, or else she'll think she's something!"

  Anpozi nodded and backed out.

  "Does Madam still want to marry Liu Niang into the Wang Manor?" The other person in the room was actually Fourth Madame Jiang Suxin.

  "It was originally intended to be so, but Qī Niáng interfered. Didn't you see that Qióng Yù took off her valuable gold bangle and gave it to her? If anyone can coax people into a good mood, that girl is the best at it. Liù Niáng can't compare to her." Zhang shì pursed her lips, her face looking somewhat sharp, "If she had told me first, I would have gone along with her. But she sang a different tune in front of me, just like Sān Niáng did seven times out of ten. In vain was I fond of her for a while; after all, she's not my own flesh and blood, so it's hard to get close to her. However, if Qióng Yù really likes Qī Niáng, I'll have no choice but to agree. Her mother is being supported by the Fú estate until old age, even if she becomes arrogant, I still hold the reins, and she can't do anything about it."

  Fourth Granny had no objections to this. She was married into the Qiu family and was more concerned about the interests of the Qiu estate than her own daughters who were married out. Zhang Shi wanted to establish a relationship with Jing Wang Fu through marriage, which was actually most important for their branch of the family. Therefore, controlling Qiu Qiuniang was necessary.

  "What about San Niang's marriage?" Si Nai Nai stayed till this moment, she had something to discuss with Zhang Shi.

  "The matchmaker has taken note. The eldest son of the Tan family in Qingzhou Prefecture, Pingzhou County, is twenty-five years old this year and has never been married. His family runs two grocery stores and owns land in the countryside. Once I've settled things with Qiong Yu, I'll tell Master about it." A hint of a smile played on Zhang's face.

  Fourth Granny thought to herself, "At twenty-five he's still not married; I wonder if there's some reason for it." And then there were the two shops and a few fields - it seemed like a small household with little business, and didn't seem to match up with Qiu San Niang. Pingzhou was also far from Luozhou, and the land was poor and the people were sparse. There were many obvious ways to send her away, whether near or far; even if she felt wronged, she wouldn't be able to return to her natal home. But she still couldn't say anything about it.

  "Right, you have something to tell me?" Zhang was very trusting of Si'er's wife and didn't hide his thoughts from her, also teaching her that for the sake of this household, using every means necessary was reasonable.

  Mrs. Zhang said, then noticed that her daughter-in-law had a hesitant expression on her face, and thought to herself that it was rare to see her like this, so she became serious and said, "Don't be embarrassed, just tell me."

  "Madam, I wanted to ask for your advice." The fourth grandmother's melon seed face was tense, "I'm afraid of offending you, but I have no choice but to tell you first. If you absolutely don't allow it, then let's just forget that the daughter-in-law said anything."
