Chapter 386 : Send Someone To Watch Over There
After Secretary Si left, Tang Li complained to Qi Yihan, “I think Secretary Si came to ask if Second Sister is his other half. He just wants to confirm, but he never thinks about how to pursue Second Sister. Does he think that once it is confirmed, he can marry Second Sister right away?”
Qi Yihan grabbed her hand and tightened his grip. “Don’t worry, even if he wants to, he can’t. If he wants to marry Second Sister, he has to be tested by First Uncle.”
Tang Li felt that it made sense and was relieved. “But fortunately, Secretary Si is a good person. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered to tell him.”
Qi Yihan smiled. “That’s right. His character is not bad, but in some ways, he’s just retarded.”
These words amused Tang Li, and she nodded in agreement.
The four of them went back after supper.
Butler Yang and Butler Zhang were waiting for them by the door.
When everyone walked in, Butler Zhang told the two of them, “Miss Tan’s mother came over today.”
Hearing that, Tang Li said to Qi Yihan, “First Madam is crazy now. I think there will be a lot of fun in First Master’s house.”
Qi Yihan thought for a moment and said to Butler Yang, “Send someone to watch over there. Make sure no one dies.”
Butler Yang nodded. “Alright.”
The next morning, Tan Wenjing brought her mother to see Qi Yihan and Tang Li.
At this moment, the two of them were planning to go for a walk. As soon as they walked out of the courtyard, they bumped into them.
Tan Wenjing was still holding a pastry box in her hand, and Mrs. Tan was holding several overlapping gift boxes.magic
When the two of them saw Tan Li, they immediately greeted, “Fourth Master, Fourth Madam.”
Tang Li and Qi Yihan stopped.
When the two of them approached, Tan Wenjing quickly said, “Fourth Master, Fourth Madam, this is my mother. She just came over yesterday afternoon. I brought her here to greet you today.”
Mrs. Tan quickly handed the gift boxes to them. “Fourth Master, Fourth Madam, these are all local specialties I brought from my hometown. Wenjing has caused trouble for you guys in the Li family recently. Thank you for taking care of Wenjing.”
At this moment, Butler Yang, who heard the voice, walked out.
He walked over and took the gift boxes from Mrs. Tan.
Tang Li said, “Thank you.”
Mrs. Tan smiled even more broadly and told them who these gift boxes were for. “The two at the bottom are for Fourth Master and Madam, the two in the middle are for Young Master Qiqi and Miss Linlin, and the two at the top are for Butler Yang and Butler Zhang.”
Butler Yang, “Thank you for your gift, Mrs. Tan.”
“Ah, there’s no need to thank me. It’s just a small gift. When Wenjing marries into the Li family, I’ll have to ask you to take care of her.”
After Mrs. Tan finished speaking, Tan Wenjing handed the pastry box to Butler Yang. “This is the snack I made. Fourth Madam and Linlin can eat it later.”
Tang Li nodded and thanked her. Then, she said, “Come in and sit.”
With that, she looked at Qi Yihan.
Qi Yihan said to her, “I’ll go for my morning jog.”
Tang Li nodded and Qi Yihan left.
Tang Li brought the Tan family into the living room.
After sitting down, Tang Li picked up the tea and took a sip before asking Mrs. Tan, “I wonder if Mrs. Tan is used to staying at the Qi mansion. If you are not used to it or if you need anything, you can tell Butler Zhang. He will arrange it for you.”
Mrs. Tan immediately smiled and felt that her daughter was really lucky. Not only did she let Second Master of the Li family marry her, but she also made friends with Fourth Madam. In the future, she would definitely be able to live well in the Qi family.
She decided to express her stance in front of Tang Li.
“Wenjing is really fortunate to have Fourth Madam take care of her. Fourth Madam, if you need anything in the future, just tell us. The Tan family will definitely not hesitate to help you.”
How could Tang Li not know what she was thinking? She said, “I rarely interfere with the matters in the Qi Mansion. Other than important financial expenses, I don’t care about anything else. Of course, if there’s anything, the two butlers can do it. After Wenjing gets married, she just needs to take care of Qi Hao.”
“Yes, yes, yes.” Mrs. Tan was even happier.
It was even better if Fourth Madam didn’t like to manage the Qi family. This way, Wenjing would have a chance to help her manage it.
As long as Wenjing could manage the Qi family, it would be easier for her to take care of the Tan family in the future.
Looking at Mrs. Tan, who was beaming with smiles, Tang Li shook her head.
The mother and daughter sat for a while before leaving.
After walking out of the courtyard of Fourth Master’s house, Mrs. Tan couldn’t stop smiling. She held Tan Wenjing’s hand and said excitedly, “I didn’t expect Fourth Madam to be so easy to talk to. Wenjing, you have to curry favor with her more. She said that she doesn’t like to manage her family. You can help her share the burden.”
Tan Wenjing was about to ask her mother to restrain herself when a cold snort came from the side.
The two of them were shocked and quickly looked over.
Qi Bailing stood there and looked at the two of them coldly. A mocking smile appeared on her face. “You’re overestimating yourself! You’re someone who married my second brother through tricks, and now you want to suck up to Fourth Aunt? Just wait and see, Fourth Aunt will teach you a lesson.”
With that, she looked at Mrs. Tan with displeasure in her eyes. “Since you’re here, why don’t you go to my mother’s place to greet her first? Why? Do you think my mother is not worthy?”
“No, no, no… Miss Bailing, you got me wrong.”
Mrs. Tan sneered in her heart. “Do you think I’m a fool? Do you think I’ll go to that lunatic’s place to get beaten up?” She said with fear and trepidation, “When I came, I asked Hao. He said that I don’t have to go.”
“Just because Second Brother said you don’t have to go doesn’t mean you don’t have to go.” Qi Bailing glared at Tan Wenjing. “Didn’t you read the Qi family’s rules? You don’t even know the Qi family’s rules. What right do you have to marry into the Qi family?”
Tan Wenjing knew that Qi Bailing was deliberately finding fault with her. She was about to marry Qi Hao, so even if Qi Bailing wanted to find fault with her, there wasn’t much she could do. Tan Wenjing didn’t care at all, so she said, pretending to be nice, “Bailing is right. It’s my fault. I’ll immediately bring my mom to see First Madam.”
“Call me Fourth Miss. As long as you’re not married to my Second Brother, you’re not my sister-in-law.”
“Yes, Fourth Miss.”
With that, she pulled Mrs. Tan away.
Qi Bailing looked at the two of them coldly and thought to herself, “You’re not qualified to marry my second brother.”
She had to think of a way to stop the marriage.
It just so happened that she had obtained a drug that could make people die mysteriously. Now, she could use it. Moreover, she could also push the blame to that bastard. It was killing two birds with one stone.
At the thought of this, she smiled wickedly.
