Chapter 80 Reminding, A Useful Eyewitness

“Mother, why didn’t you use the carriage in our mansion?” Qin Huaiyong helped Old Grandma get down the carriage, and he was surprised to see the nun getting off the carriage before Old Grandma.

“The carriage was damaged!” Old Grandma had a sound rest, and she looked energetic now.

“Damaged? What happened?” Qin Huaiyong got stunned, and then he frowned because he had a terrible feeling!

“I don’t know, and I only heard that one of the carriages had a wheel loosed when Zhuozhuo went to check the carriages. What’s more, the carriage with the damaged wheel smashed all other carriages we had in our mansion, and I could barely make here and anchor your wedding with Ruolan!”

Old Grandma said it without carrying any attitudes and expressions.

Qin Huaiyong changed his facial expressions, he was about to say something but Madam Di interrupted him, “mother, finally you arrived. The cart driver just told me that the carriage was damaged, and I was preparing to pick you up with other carriages.”

After she finished her sentence, she rushed into the door, wiping her sweat on the face with a handkerchief, and it could be proved that she was really in a hurry.

“You knew mother’s carriage was damaged?” Qin Huaiyong asked Madam Di in a terrible and unfriendly look, “why I didn’t know anything?”

General, I was preparing other carriages for mother here in a hurry, so I forgot to tell you. I was thinking to find an ideal transport and go up the mountain with you to pick up mother.” Madam Di said with fortunate smile, “Fortunately, it’s such a blessing, Jingxin Monastery master had a carriage and even someone who could drive. Otherwise, it would be so terrible.”

On her way coming here, she already learned the news, and now she also saw a nun standing by Old Grandma, so she understood that it was Jingxin Monastery master spoiled her plan and she was furious now. However, she had to pretend that she was grateful!

Qin Wanru stood aside and smiled, watching Madam Di suffered the consequence she delivered. One occurrence after another, no matter how much did her father trust Madam Di, his trust would abate this time!

Qin Huaiyong would not believe her unless she did practical measures for changing, and she could never bluff her way through!

Obviously, what Qin Huaiyong said next froze the smile on Madam Di’s face.

“So what did you do for this, and where did you borrow the carriage? When did you plan to tell me and go up to the mountain for picking up my mother?” Qin Huaiyong asked, one after another. He kept hurtling his questions angrily towards Madam Di, completely ignoring Madam Di’s rigid facial expression.

Nanny Zhou sensed the situation was unfavorable to them, so she explained for Madam Di in a hurry: “General, this accident just happened, and I was discussing it with Madam just now. We prepared to borrow a carriage with other well-connected Madams. The best carriage in our mansion is the one serving Old Grandma, but now it was damaged and couldn’t be used.”

“Other Madams? Which one?” In the past, Qin Huaiyong would be satisfied with her explanation, but now he decided not to make any compromises, so he sneered and said that. His eyes were concentrating on Madam Di’s face, and he didn’t show any mildness, “Madam Di, don’t tell me at this critical moment, you were only planning but doing nothing.”

“I… I… general, how could say that to me? You know, I care everything about you, and I even accept your decision of marrying Shui Ruolan. I gave you everything you wanted, when did I delay? Now, what’s the attitude? So I’m treated like this even before the new bride marrying into our family?”

Madam Di got stammered because he was bombarding her, and she suddenly cried out, wiping her tears with the handkerchief and complaining about Qin Huaiyong, “general, I know you harbor anger and concerns to me because of Yuru’s accident, but what I should do? Yuru is my daughter, and I gave birth to her. So I was supposed to watch aside and see her suffering? I know I did the wrong thing, but… but that was for our daughter, could you please understand me!”

Madam Di felt so wronged, and she lifted her face, which was drowned in tears, and she looked at Qin Huaiyong, “general, I didn’t do anything wrong since I followed you. But I made the wrong judgment on Yuru’s issue, but… but you can’t completely deny me. I abandoned my life in the capital city, was it only for leading a life without trust!”

Madam Di almost cried her eyeballs out on thinking of her past time sufferings.

He used to be a Miss from a prestigious family, and she broke her engagement only for marrying Qin Huaiyong, and this was something worth mentioning for years in front of Qin Huaiyong.

After all, based on Qin Huaiyong’s identity and condition, it was not a good marriage in Duke Yong.

Her words implied both directly and indirectly that she married someone beneath her.

Her words alleviated Qin Huaiyong’s anger, and he became less aggressive.

“Mother, don’t you like Aunt Shui? “Qin Wanru found they changed the subject and turned to something that Qin Huaiyong was grateful to Duke Yong, so she lifted her beautiful eyes and asked like a spoiled kid.

Only one sentence made Qin Huaiyong change his facial expression again, and he looked at Madam Di with grave doubts. Did Madam Di intend to distract his attention by crying and complaining?

He sent someone to tackle with what Nanny Duan was reported before, and he knew someone was targeting Shui Ruolan in the dark corner, and the most suspicious candidate was Madam Di. Before he figured this out, an accident about the damaged carriage happened.

Mother couldn’t leave the mountain if the carriage were damaged. If Madam Di made any troubles by using this accident and if she smashed the bridal sedan chair, he would have no attention to bother with anything happening inside the mansion because he would be busy explaining everything to the outside. When Shui Ruolan was married into the family, but others did not accept her identity and status, the consequence would be visible.

It was Madam Di plotting everything behind his back for sure!

Suddenly, an idea that Madam Di asked someone to plot against Qin Wanru came into his mind, and coldness filled his eyes. To this woman, could he have any other ideas?

He has almost cheated again!

“Wanru, I knew you never liked your mother, and you heard about the matter happened to your Big Sister which felt you so wronged now, but don’t be angry, I… I’ll apologize to you! But I hope you don’t target your mother anymore, your mother I only want to make atonement.” Madam Di was moaning in her mind, and she wiped her tears with her handkerchief. Kneeling for Qin Wanru and putting on a face that she knew her mistake, she thought that Qin Wanru could do anything she wanted now.

Qin Wanru couldn’t have her mother to kneel in front of her, so she shunned away, and a flexible old woman standing by Old Grandma’s sidestepped forward and supported her to stand up.

But Madam Di was eager to kneel for real this time, and she wanted to kneel even an old woman was supporting her to stand up.

It turned into a tumult because they were dragging and pulling each other.

“Grandma, you’re tired, do you want to have a rest for a while?” Qin Wanru stepped back to Old Grandma’s side and asked her with a frown.

Old Grandma understood her intention and pressed her forehead and leaned back feebly with her eyes tightly closed. She ordered Qin Wanru in a whisper, “Zhuozhuo, you help me go inside and have a rest. It’s such chaotic here, I don’t have the energy to listen to, and you ask your father to deal with it himself.” She finished her sentence, followed by several coughs.

Qin Huaiyong got furious when he saw Old Grandma was so tired but Madam Di kept making a sensation there, so he banged on the table so fiercely that all the tea set on the table jumped up and made crisp sounds, “are you done? If you finished your show, you go back and stop making any troubles for me.”

The more he thought of the things that Madam Di has done, the more he felt she disturbing, and the more he loathed her.

“General, you… “Madam Di was in the high time of her show and got stammered because of Qin Huaiyong’s behaviors.

“You stay in your yard and don’t get out from it tomorrow in case you make any accident!” Qin Huaiyong sneered.

One case after another, and all of them had relations with Madam Di, so even he had no evidence, he could still know it was she who did everything and it was always she.

Qin Huaiyong would never expect that she did all of these if the accident in Jingxin Monastery didn’t happen. Who could imagine that she would think of kidnapping Qin Wanru, and what else she wouldn’t do?

Therefore, the person who was plotting against Shui Ruolan, damaging the carriage to prevent Old Grandma going down the mountain and anchoring the wedding could be Madam Di naturally.

“General, you… how could you do this to me?” Madam Di was astonished. If she couldn’t attend this wedding, how would people judge her, and how could she visit other mansions as a decent guest?

“Someone leads Madam to have a rest so that she could calm down and relieve.” Qin Huaiyong said with an angry face.

Hearing his words, two rough and ready old women standing next to Old Grandma dragged Madam Di to go outside, although Nanny Zhou wanted to help her, she saw Qin Huaiyong’s face and dared not to step forward. So she was standing behind Madam Di and kept persuading him.

People followed Madam Di were all in panic, and they chased after Madam Di and retreated. All of a sudden, the room went back to peace.

“Mother, tomorrow’s wedding, I have to bother you again!” Taking a deep breath, Qin Huaiyong reopened his mouth and said.

“Yong, don’t worry. I’m old, but I’m able to take charge for only one day. What about the future?” Old Grandma sighed; she had mixed feelings too.

“From now on, Ruolan cousin will take in charge!” Qin Huaiyong raised his eyebrows and made his decision. He took a glance at Qin Wanru and became determined.

He couldn’t divorce with Madam Di, but it doesn’t mean he would treat her the same as he did before. He could give the title of his first lady due to his respect towards Duke Yong mansion, but it was just a title which the outsiders thought it was decent.

“Don’t you feel worried that Duke Yong may intervene in it?” Old Grandma was worried too, and that’s why she made many compromises to Madam Di for so many years.

“Don’t worry, Mother.” Qin Huaiyong comforted Old Grandma.

“It’ll be excellent that you know what you’re doing, and Ruolan is fine as well, but… “Old Grandma harbored misgivings, so she stopped.

“Father, will Duke Yong embarrass you and Aunt Shui?” Qin Wanru asked adequately, and she was frowning, and her tiny face showed worry.

Qin Huaiyong understood instantly since he was heading back to the capital city, it was necessary to tell the reasons of the decision he made to Duke Yong Mansion.

Qin Wanru’s words reminded Qin Huaiyong, so he promised Old Grandma, “Don’t worry, mother. I’ll get ready for some things.”

If he treated Duke Yong’s daughter rudely, Duke Yong would find him trouble. Therefore, eyewitnesses, evidence, and the ones who intended to ruin his wedding, all of them he would figure them out, tied them up, and took them with him to the capital city.

Learning that Qin Huaiyong would take eyewitness to the capital city, profound darkness was flowing in Qin Wanru’s eyes where nobody could see. They were not only eyewitnesses but could be useful in other places, so she reminded Qin Huaiyong of bringing them into the capital city for great use…
