Chapter 970: Appeasement

When Wan Long returned home, he received news that his mother-in-law, Mrs. Wan, had heard the rumors about General Yuan Xiao and the county lord of Yanwang outside, and after a meal, she asked Qiu Yue to persuade her to be relieved, and she was secretly relieved.

He entered the Yanwang Mansion and got the blue eyes of the nobles, so he was no longer afraid of his mother's beating and scolding. As for a few ugly criticisms, and they don't hurt or itch, they will listen to them. What he was most worried about was that his aunt and sister would be affected by himself and tortured by his mother-in-law. Fortunately, this time, he had already gotten angry with Qiu Yue, and let Qiu Yue come forward in time to appease his mother-in-law, otherwise his biological mother and sister would not know what crime they would suffer.

Wan Long was only worried about his biological mother and sister, but he was not afraid that Mrs. Wan would talk nonsense outside, saying that he used the county lord of Yanwangfu as a raft to deceive his mother-in-law. He only hinted at words and expressions that day, but what he said and did made people unable to find fault. Even if Mrs. Wan wanted to sue, she couldn't sue in, because everything was just her own cranky thinking and misunderstanding!

He did have a good relationship with the son of the county lord's nurse, and he did once serve as an accompanying escort for the county lord of Yanwang - because since he entered the Yanwang Mansion, because of his mediocre ability in riding and archery, he asked his boss Xiao Rui to arrange to practice riding and archery with other new guards, and the gentleman who taught them skills was the senior guard in the county lord's guard. At that time, the people of Yanwangfu planned to ask him to be an entourage to the future son Xiao Rui, and Mr. took him out with the county lord, just to teach him what to do when traveling with nobles.

All this is above board, and the road has passed in front of King Yan and the princess, the county lord and the future prince. If Mrs. Wan accuses him of these things, it will be absolutely untenable, and it will only make people think that she is a bone in the egg.

Of course, it is naturally better to make Mrs. Wan believe that everything is wrong, that it is inexplicable luck that brought him a good life, not that he is calculating. Even if Wan Long is not afraid of his mother's complaint, he doesn't want to leave a bad impression on the nobles of Yanwangfu, especially this kind of misunderstanding related to the reputation of the county lord. Even if he's not wrong, it's suspicious. Several nobles in the Yanwang Mansion are not as easy to fool as Mrs. Wan, not to mention that they all know in their hearts that Wan Long is eager to promote the marriage with the Xie family. It would not be good if they thought that he was so eager that he would not hesitate to take advantage of the reputation of the county lord and dislike him and affect his future future.

It's definitely the best thing to get things to do now. Wan Long was very grateful for Qiu Yue's help.

Just because of Qiuyue's help, there will be so many benefits, and he will spend a lot of effort to win over the other party. Now it seems that this decision could not have been more sensible!

As for the mother-in-law, as long as she can coax people and make Mrs. Wan believe that she is not deliberately deceiving, things will be easy to do. As long as Mrs. Wan can be a little less angry in her heart, even if she thinks that she has no talent, but is just lucky, the blind cat meets a dead mouse to get a good errand and a good marriage, it doesn't matter. He never expected his father and mother to change his opinion of him, and even felt that it was not a bad thing to pretend to be mediocre in front of them. What he is afraid of is that if he is used to pretending to be mediocre, he will really become mediocre, and he will be limited by others all his life and will not be able to really get ahead. As long as he has a smooth road ahead and a promising future, what does it matter if his parents and family despise him for a few years? He doesn't care about this false name!

Wan Long rushed to appease his biological mother, Aunt Wang, and his sister Wan San, and told them that it was best to go to the main courtyard less recently, and not to do anything conspicuous, so as not to fall into the hands of his mother-in-law and suffer in vain. Then he avoided the others, quietly met Qiu Yue, thanked her a thousand times, and gave her a pair of green jade earrings with very good water heads that he bought outside as a thank you gift. As for whether Qiu Yue thinks this pair of earrings means anything else, that's her own business.

Qiu Yue chatted with Wan Long for a while, and then quickly separated. After she returned to the room, she carefully put away the earrings and specially avoided Chunlan - although she was also a big girl and was also trusted by Mrs. Wan, there had never been much harmony between her and Chunlan. Chunlan always felt that she was a threat to herself, for fear that she would rob her of what she thought was a good future in the future - such as marrying a certain young master and being an aunt or something. Qiu Yue had other plans in her heart, but because of the feelings of her mother, she didn't dare to reveal half a point, and now she had to be on guard against Chunlan as much as possible. She didn't want Chunlan to stab her relationship with the Third Young Master in front of her mother, ruin her life in vain, and also affect the future of the Third Young Master.

After putting away the earrings, Qiu Yue returned to the main room. At this time, Mrs. Wan had almost lost her breath, but she was still panicked in her heart.

She said to her eldest daughter and the two big girls beside her: "I was really panicked! hurriedly facilitated the relationship with the Xie family, and now it is cheaper than Bandung's cheap embryo! If I can calm down and wait a few more days, maybe I can hear about the matter between General Yuan and the county lord, then what is there to worry about?! Bandung's cheap embryo, where can he compare to General Yuan Xiao? He can't climb the county lord mother! ”

Chunlan echoed. Qiu Yue smiled and said, "Mrs. doesn't have to talk about this all the time. Just now, I went to find someone to go to Xie's house to find out, and I heard that Mrs. Xie will go to Yanwang's Mansion today. Although I don't know what Mrs. Xie did when she went to Yanwang's Mansion, but Mrs. went to ask for help every day, she definitely remembered to help Mrs. find out the princess's mouth! Mrs. thought about it, if it weren't for our family and Mrs. Xie becoming in-laws, how could she be so concerned about this matter? The Xie family didn't know what the third young master had said to his wife, and what ridiculous ideas he had had, they only knew that his wife personally came to the door to propose marriage, and wanted to let them marry a shallow official eunuch family with a shallow foundation to marry the dignified Pingchang Marquis Mansion! Naturally, they are willing! As for whether it was the third young master or which one was married, how did they know the difference? Anyway, whoever the wife mentioned, they promised! ”

Mrs. Wan was in a better mood again: "This is very true. Our family is a dignified mansion! If you marry someone like them, it's almost the same to have a concubine, is it really necessary to match your concubine? ! Thinking about it this way, her resentment was a little less.

But Miss Wan was a little unimpressed: "What's wrong with the Xie family?" Although the foundation is shallow, I can't stand the high official position of others! It's already the boss of my father's boss! Although our family is a marquis's mansion, it is not our room that attacks the lord, except for the eldest uncle of the lord, no one in the family can have an official position higher than Lord Xie! His son is a relative of the emperor and the country, so why is he not worthy of me? If he is not worthy, why did my mother want to marry me off that day? To say these things now is nothing but self-deception! ”

She stood up abruptly, turned her head and left, glaring at Chunlan and Qiuyue before leaving.
