Chapter 154 It's all over
In fact, what made him most angry was not his aunt's betrayal, but the fact that someone made him look bad in public. This person was most likely his wife, whom he trusted very much. This was what he could not tolerate the most.
However, no matter how he asked, the maid who came to report the news would not admit that her mistress had said anything behind his back, and her mistress was also very tight-lipped.
Besides, now that Qin Yueran has come forward to look for his wife, he doesn't want others to gossip about him, so let's just let the matter go.
However, he still has to warn the other party from time to time. Everything should be based on the overall interest.
Qin Yueran saw that when she asked Shen Jingting, the other party remained silent, and she had some guesses in her mind.
But before she could say anything, the other party spoke first.
"Madam is not in a good mood because my father is sick. Since my father is usually very kind to her, she is recuperating in the backyard now."
"I'll have someone take you to see her. You two can chat for a while, and it can also ease her mood."
If the other party was really sick, Qin Yueran didn't intend to disturb her, but looking at Chen Baixiang's appearance, the other party was not really sick, so she agreed.
"Okay, then I'll trouble Brother Chen. I'll go and talk to the Madam."
"After all, Uncle Chen's health is recovering quite well now."
"As long as he is obedient and takes good care of himself, everything will be fine."
In this way, Qin Yueran came to the backyard under the guidance of the housekeeper.
During this time, she could clearly feel that they were taking a detour, because she had just seen that this place could be reached from the previous location.
But the housekeeper took her away. It seemed that Chen Baixiang asked someone to notify Shen Jingting and tell her that he was here.
Qin Yueran was not angry about Chen Baixiang's behavior.
His actions actually proved that he still valued me, proved that he had really listened to what I said to him just now and really wanted to cooperate with me.
Although they took a detour, the yard was only so big, so when Qin Yueran arrived at Shen Jingting's door, she hadn't finished cleaning up yet.
Shen Jingting looked at her half-combed hair, then looked at Qin Yueran at the door, and smiled a little embarrassedly.
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Miss Qin. I wasn't in a good mood today. I stayed in the house and didn't even comb my hair."
"It's also these people's fault for not knowing how to deal with things. They didn't even inform me when Miss Qin came. They told me so late. I was negligent."
Qin Yueran doesn't care much about these etiquettes.
When she was on vacation in modern times, it was common for her to go downstairs to pick up a package without washing her face or combing her hair.
There's nothing rude about meeting someone without combing your hair.
Qin Yuran said disapprovingly about Shen Jingting's reserved attitude, "Madam is really too polite."
"Haven't I said this before? We are friends. When friends meet, there's no need to dress up extravagantly. Just be casual and have fun."
"The main reason is that I came here unexpectedly today and did not inform you in advance because I have something to discuss with Brother Chen."
Shen Jingting raised her eyebrows when she addressed Qin Yuran. It seemed that these two were having a very happy chat.
She had not acknowledged the matter of her aunt before, but now that one of the parties involved was here, she should really have a good talk with him.
Although Qin Yueran didn't look like a gossipy person and she wouldn't talk about it on her own initiative, if the other party really asked, it would be troublesome if she let it slip.
"Ms. Qin is indeed a person of true character. You are right. I will not comb my hair today."
"Xiao Cui, please go out first. I want to talk to Miss Qin alone. Remember, don't let anyone in without my permission."
The maid beside them obediently left the room and helped the two of them close the door.
Qin Yueran naturally knew what she wanted to say, so she took the initiative to say, "I don't think there was anything wrong with what Madam did that day."
"I would do the same if I were in your shoes."
"Madam, please send the maid away. If you want to talk about this matter, there is no need to do so. It is already in the past tense."
Hearing Qin Yueran say this, Shen Jingting was completely relieved. She felt that this person was really insightful, and it would be easy to make friends with such a person.
"Yes, everything that happened before is in the past, but I still want to thank Miss Qin again."
Qin Yuran stopped the other party from speaking helplessly.
"First, you don't have to say thank you anymore. Second, you don't have to call me Miss Qin. My friends all call me Ranran."
Shen Jingting also felt that it would be more intimate to call her that, so she changed the name directly, "Okay, Ranran, you don't have to call me Madam in private, just call me Sister Ting."
"What brings you here today? You seem very happy. Did you come to an agreement with my husband about what you discussed?"
Qin Yueran did not hide it from Shen Jingting. After all, they were husband and wife, and even if she didn't say it, she would tell it.
So she told Shen Jingting about the general situation.
After Qin Yueran finished speaking, Shen Jingting looked at Qin Yueran for a long time without saying anything.
Qin Yueran was a little scared by the other person's eyes. What did this mean? Was her idea bad? Why was she staring at her?
Shen Jingting sensed Qin Yuran's confusion, and said with a shy look, "Ranran, you are really amazing."
"I'm sorry, I was just a little shocked by your idea just now, so I kept looking at you."
"If your idea really succeeds, this northern border can become a paradise in the future."
“Your ideas are really different from others.”
"Actually, I wasn't used to it when I first came here. When I saw people being bullied, I wanted to help. But after I got bullied a few times, I didn't dare to go out and interact with others anymore."
"Even though my status has changed a lot, I still don't want to meet too many people."
"I think they might have different purposes when they met me."
"Maybe he was scared of being cheated."
"I really want to see the northern border you described."
Qin Yueran also smiled when she heard the other party's praise.
"Don't worry, this is not just a dream, it will come true in the near future."
"Sometimes, if you are too kind-hearted, you are easily taken advantage of."
"But I hope you won't refuse to socialize with others because of this incident. After all, there are still more good people."
"As long as you keep your eyes open and discern carefully, you can still make friends."
"By the way, I'm curious about something. Can you explain it to me?"
"Your brother Chen used to be a scholar, right? I see there are a lot of books in his study, and he loves reading."
