Chapter 162: Rumors are spread by mouth
The next morning, by the bedside, Aunt Ye carefully helped the master get dressed.
At this moment, Ye Yi Niang's personal maid Rui Zhu hurried in from outside, knelt down and reported loudly: "Master, the eldest daughter has returned home, and she has brought a lot of men with her to the gate!"
Originally, this was just an ordinary remark, but after what Aunt Ye had laid out last night, the word "man" made Qin Qianbai particularly sensitive. He suddenly became furious and strode towards the door.
Aunt Ye looked at Ruizhu with satisfaction, a hint of pride flashing in her eyes. She secretly praised in her heart that the maid she had trained was indeed smart and knew how to cater to her wishes. Then, she quickened her pace and followed closely behind the master, ready to watch the show.
Ruizhu felt the approval in her aunt's eyes and was secretly happy. She hurried to keep up with them, looking forward to what was about to happen.
When the eldest lady is punished or beaten, maybe Aunt Ye will be happy and reward her with a lot of things, just like the precious bracelet on her wrist. She touched it happily again, and the texture was so smooth.
Mengzhu, the maidservant who served silently behind Aunt Ye, looked at Ruizhu's jade bracelet with jealousy. She should have been rewarded last time.
This concubine Ye is so stingy. She only threatens her with her indenture contract, but is so generous to Ruizhu. She really treats her differently. After all, Ruizhu was brought in from outside and is different from her.
When Qin Qianbai walked to the gate with a proud and confident look, he took a look and found that it was just as Ruizhu said.
He saw that there was indeed a group of men following Qin Yuehua, some young and some old. He became even angrier when he saw this, his face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. He rushed over without hesitation.
Qin Yuehua had just gotten off the carriage and was about to turn around to support Nanny Qiutong when she suddenly saw her father walking towards her angrily.
She was startled, and before she could react, a heavy slap landed on her face.
She suddenly felt dizzy and her body fell backwards involuntarily, eventually falling to the ground.
Qin Yuehua only felt her ears buzzing and her face burning with pain. She slowly raised her head and looked up at her father standing in front of her.
At this moment, his face was filled with anger and his mouth kept opening and closing, but her ears were still buzzing and she couldn't hear what he was saying. Her world seemed to become quiet and silent, with only endless pain and a hint of loss.
When she regained her hearing, she heard her father angrily say: "You unfilial daughter, how dare you stay out all night and hook up with men? Where did you learn any manners?"
Seeing this, Aunt Ye took the opportunity to fan the flames and said: "Look at the young lady's youthful appearance. Maybe she has already got together with someone."
Qin Qianbai became even more angry after hearing this. He shouted, "Evil girl, I must beat you to death today to prevent you from embarrassing yourself and ruining the reputation of our Qin family." After saying that, he raised his hand and wanted to slap her again.
However, at this moment, a luxurious carriage slowly drove past the gate of Qin's mansion. The person in the carriage was none other than the prince Zhou Yao. He had originally wanted to visit Prime Minister Qin, but was very hesitant about how to cancel the engagement. After wandering around Qin's mansion for a long time, he decided to go back first and make plans later. When he was ordering the carriage to go home first, he happened to hear the conversation between Qin Qianbai and others.
His eyes darkened and his face became extremely gloomy. It seemed that this marriage had to be cancelled. Originally, out of consideration for Prime Minister Qin's face, he wanted to give it more consideration. But today, it seemed that there was no need for that. He absolutely did not want to marry a lewd woman who had lost her virginity before marriage.
The carriage passed by quietly, as if it had never appeared...
