Chapter 21
If sedan chair was compared with carriage, it has naturally wasted some times . And her, deliberately, giving up on carriage and instead choosing sedan chair was exactly because she wanted to waste a little bit of time .
But no matter how slow was the speed, the sedan chair will still stop in front of Qu mannor´s gate .
When Qu Tang´er came out from sedan chair and lifted her gaze, she could then see a golden plaque hung on the gate . She felt it was too dazzling to her eyes . At this moment, even she couldn´t figure out, if it was because sunshine was too intense or if it was her imagination .
Qu mannor´s housekeeper was already waiting outside . Once he saw Qu Tang´er come out from sedan chair, seemingly respectful, he went to greet them . Yet, he just swept a glance at Qu Tang´er . Afterwards, he paid no more attention to her . Suddenly, he looked at interior of sedan chair, as if to check up something . Seeing that inside was no one else, a contempt flashed through him .
„What is housekeeper trying to find?“ Although Qu Tang´er was asking this way, but inside her heart she understood very well, what housekeeper´s action meant . He was simply checking, if Mo Liancheng accompanied her or not .
„Fourth miss, This old slave was just wondering, why didn´t his eighth highness come with miss . “ Housekeeper turned his gaze away from the interior of sedan chair and puzzledly asked Qu Tang´er .
„Presumptuous!“ Qu Tang´er hasn´t even spoken, Jing Xin beside has already berated, „Master is already princess consort . She is no longer miss of Qu mannor . Also, housekeeper should put yourself in the proper mindset . When you see her highness, don´t you even salute?“
Housekeeper seemed to be alarmed . He hurriedly saluted, seeking for a forgiveness .
However, the housekeeper secretly sent a hint to another figure inside the entrance . And that observing figure, hastily run to the main house .
Qu Tang´er smiled faintly, not exposing it .
The housekeeper was a dog kept by big madam . She already knew it .
Bride´s home visit . Big madam has probably already received the news, that Qu Tang´er will visit her parental home alone . But, she still worried that there will be changes in the midway, so she ordered the housekeeper to do greetings . If she received the news, that Mo Liancheng will come, they would have probably personally guarded the gate to adequately show their attitude .
Let it be . Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir![1]
„Jing Xin . Let´s go inside . “ Qu tang´er frowned .
„Yes . “ Jing Xin nodded . Following Qu Tang´er, inwardly she become worried .
Passing by the receiving room, Qu tang´er´s mind gradually calmed down . Qu mannor couldn´t be regarded as luxurious . It also didn´t have a beautiful construction . This was not because Qu Jianglin was poor, but because he did a sufficient job for his outward image . Minister of war did have a lot of income, but if their home was too excessive, it will make some jealous officials accuse them of misconduct . if they got saddled up with a reputation of a corrupted official, things would be bad .
Seeing that she was going to reach main hall… . .
„You have returned . “
Qu Tang´er has just took a few steps, a woman´s peculiar voice carried out from the inside .
There was no need to guess . It was Qu Jianglin´s principal wife, big madam´s voice .
„Replying to Daniang[2], Tang´er has come . “ She did come, but not to return . She has already married, so her home was not here . Was this big madam reminding her that her life still belonged to Qu mannor? Qu Tang´er looked calm, yet a mockery was hidden inside her eyes .
„Eighth prince did not accompany you? Big madam questioned with a stern voice .
How come she felt that these words were rather cold? Qu Tang´er tugged at her cloak . She let Jing Xin help her drape it over her before getting out from sedan chair .
But she still obediently replied, „Daniang, eighth prince didn´t come . “
Indeed . Mo Liancheng didn´t come together with her .
„Why didn´t he come?“
„Eighth prince said that he is busy, had no free time . “ Why? Isn´t it useless to ask? It´s the other person who didn´t even bother to come here!
