The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Chapter 506 Calculation

Qin Huiyin rode on horseback and watched Tang Yichen and Tang Luwu's convoy leave the capital.

Qin Huiyin said angrily, "Brother is really too much. I asked him to go with me, but he disagreed. Then Lu Wu said she wanted to go, so he agreed."

"The eldest lady also understands the affairs of the military factory. With her help, the eldest master will be more capable."

"Don't I know better?"

"If the young lady leaves, who will take care of the food city business? The eldest young lady can manage it, but there are many difficult matters that can only be handled when the young lady is around. Apart from anything else, the young lady's words are more effective at the military headquarters. Also, Mr. Song can't bear to part with the young lady and will never want to be separated from her."

Qin Huiyin touched her cheek and said, "We've been apart before. It's not like I won't come back. I'll come back after I've dealt with things."

"It will take five or six months at the fastest, or a year at the slowest. Master Song will be extremely anxious! Fortunately, the young lady didn't go, otherwise Master Song would be waiting for you for a long time."

"Little girl, you're becoming more and more unruly. You even dare to make fun of me." Qin Huiyin poked Zhilan's forehead and said, "Actually, I still want to go to the border to take a look. I know the border is difficult, and I thought that if I had the chance, I would also like to do something for more people."

"Miss, you should think about doing something for Master Song!" Su Jin came over. "Master Song has been watching you for as long as you've been standing here. He's afraid you'll follow him."

Qin Huiyin turned around and saw Song Ruize parked not far away on horseback, flanked by several soldiers from the military. When she looked over, he shoved his horse's belly and came over.

"Su Jin said that you have been keeping an eye on me, afraid that I would follow you to the border." Qin Huiyin teased him.

"Well, this is what you would do. I do have this concern." Song Ruize said, "Let's go, I'll take you to dinner."

Today, Mrs. Jia, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, held a banquet, saying it was her grandson's third birthday, and she sent out invitations to the wives of officials to come for a drink.

The last time Li Taohua attended a banquet, the lady from Jia's family was interested in making friends with her. Now, after receiving the invitation, she arrived bearing gifts. However, Lu Wu had gone to the border with Tang Yichen, and Qin Huiyin was busy and unavailable, so she was the only one to attend the banquet alone.

It was just a small party after all, and no one paid attention to who came and who didn't. Even if someone brought it up, they would just make up an excuse that their daughter was not feeling well and get away with it.

Halfway through the banquet, Li Taohua drank too much, so Mrs. Jia sent someone to arrange for her to rest in the side room and also brought her some sobering soup.

"Miss Runiang, your mistress seems to want to take a nap. Why don't you go and have something to eat?" said the maid from the Jia family to Runiang.

Ru Niang looked back at Li Taohua who was resting on the bed, shook her head and said, "No, I want to stay here and watch over my wife."

"Miss Runiang, there are servants here. If the Madam wakes up, we will take care of her."

"Thank you for your kindness, sister, but our lady is used to ordering me around. If it were someone else, she would be embarrassed to order me around."

"Okay, then I'll go get you some food. You can eat while you wait so you don't get too hungry."

The maid brought tea and snacks. Runiang sat at the table, pinching a piece of snack and eating it, drinking the sweet tea. However, her head was getting heavier and her eyelids were getting heavier.

The door creaked open from the outside, and a tall figure walked into the room.

The man walked to the bedside and looked at the beautiful woman lying there, like a drunken peony. His eyes were full of obsession: "Even when she's drunk, she looks exactly like Qingyi."

He reached out and touched Li Taohua's cheek.

Li Taohua opened her eyes in a daze, her vision blurry. She said angrily, "You stinky man! You're so old, yet you're still so dishonest all day long."

Jiang Yuyu looked at her charming appearance, and his heart, which had not beaten violently for a long time, began to beat wildly again.

"Qingyi."

This clear ripple made Li Taohua sober up a little. She looked again and realized that the man in front of her was not the glutton Tang Dafu, but the life-threatening ghost Jiang Zhiyu.

She hurriedly sat up and pushed herself out of bed: "Who are you? Why are you here? Someone... come..."

"Madam, are you really going to call someone in?" Jiang Zhiyu covered Li Taohua's mouth and whispered in her ear, "If someone saw us here, would your reputation be ruined?"

smell good……

How come she is as sweet as Qingyi?

He had someone investigate her. The previous information was not very complete, but it was clear that she had remarried two men with her daughter.

Her current husband was just a country bumpkin who spent his days eating, drinking, and having fun, doing nothing of value. Her family's prosperity was due not only to Tang Yichen, the top scholar, but also to the stepdaughter Li Taohua brought with her, a business prodigy. As for her other two children, they were also quite capable, while Tang Dafu was a sloppy, rough-and-tumble man.

"Let me go!" Li Taohua pushed Jiang Zhiyu away. "Why wouldn't I dare to scream? I'm just an ignorant woman, used to being shameless. What about you? You look like someone of some standing, right? If others knew you were raping a married woman, and this woman is the mother of a current official, what would they think of you? Would your family's reputation be any different?"

Jiang Zhiyu looked at the rude woman in front of him.

Her eyes were so sharp, not at all as gentle as Qingyi's. She and Qingyi had nothing in common except their faces. But he couldn't take his eyes off her.

"Don't be angry, ma'am. I just broke in here unintentionally and didn't mean to offend anyone." Jiang Zhiyu said gently.

A sarcastic look flashed in Li Taohua's eyes.

Although Jiang Zhiyu was no longer young, he was indeed a man of great potential. When she was young, she had been bewitched by his face and had truly believed that he was special to her, and had been devoted to him for many years.

However, her eyes have been healed.

She has seen truly affectionate couples and lovers who truly love each other, so of course she knows what a good lover is like.

"Since you have come in by mistake, please leave this place." Li Taohua gave him a way out, wanting him to disappear from her sight.

"Madam, you look exactly like my beloved." Jiang Zhiyu looked at her affectionately. "When I see you, Madam, I always feel dazed."

Li Taohua lowered her eyes, frowned, and said, "Sir, please respect yourself. You look quite old, so why are you so shameless as to say such offensive words?"

Qingyi would never say such rude words. She wanted him to know that she was not Qingyi, so she said whatever was offensive and rude.

"I didn't mean to offend you, but my heart was driven by desire. I'll take my leave today and apologize to Madam another day."
