The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 91: Those who are kind do not come, and those who come are not kind

When Lang Jiuchuan was hanging out outside, someone from the Qi family came to Kaiping Marquis Mansion and directly asked Lang Jiuchuan to come out and meet them.

The Qi family is the in-law of the Xuan clan's Rong family. When Lang Zhengping heard that the newcomers came from such a place and were different from Zhao Kun and Shen Qinghe who had come to the mansion before, but were murderous, he knew that the newcomers had no good intentions.

Before meeting the person from the Qi family, Lang Zhengping first went to find Lang Jiuchuan privately, intending to ask him how he had provoked the Qi family and caused them to come and cause trouble.

As a result, what about people?
The man slipped out.

Lang Zhengping and Cui, who had rushed over after hearing the news, looked at each other in bewilderment. Seeing Cui's face was gloomy, Lang Zhengping thought for a moment and then excused Lang Jiuchuan, saying, "She asked for permission from me before she left."

Cui said coldly: "Brother, you don't have to cover up for her. I knew she was not a quiet person."

Lang Zhengping said, "Don't say that. All the children in our family are good. She just left home when she was young and never got along with her family, so she is a little rebellious."

Cui turned around and said, "Let's see what the Qi family has to say."

The two walked to the front yard one after the other. Lang Zhengping also sent someone to ask Fan to question the coachman who picked up Lang Jiuchuan yesterday.

Lang Caizhao from the eldest house and Lang Caiming, the thirteenth son from the third house, came here. When they heard this, they ran away.

It’s terrible! That village girl from Langjiu has caused trouble again.

The people who came from the Qi family were the Qi family's young mistress Zhang, Madam Liao, who was Madam Qi's confidant, and a steward. They were sitting or standing in the flower hall, looking unfriendly.

Wu, who was dressed in plain clothes, looked at Zhang, who was outstanding in appearance but arrogant. She felt disdainful in her heart, but she smiled.

She was just the daughter of a sixth-rank general, a name that had never been heard of in the Beijing circle. After marrying into the Qi family, she never expected that the eldest daughter of the Qi family would rise to fame, and her family members and friends would also rise to fame.

During daily gatherings, this Madam Qi would dare to criticize the daughter of a third-rank official in front of everyone. Her words were full of sarcasm and she almost forced the other party to jump into the river.

Zhang was aggressive, and the Guiyang County Lady who had been honored with a title was even more unruly and domineering. No one in the Qi family was easy to get along with, and they offended people everywhere. Everyone only tolerated it because they were relatives of the Rong family.

Look, even their servants are so arrogant.

Click.

The thin porcelain cup with green chrysanthemum in it was placed heavily on the table, and the crisp sound interrupted Wu's deep thoughts.

Wu looked over and saw Zhang with a gloomy face. She asked coldly, "How long do we have to wait? I didn't know that the young ladies in your house were harder to invite than the young ladies in the Rong family. But do you need me to wait for the guests to come and ask them?"

In one sentence, he satirized the Lang family's upbringing and highlighted his relationship with the Rong family.

"It's not that I've been urged so many times, but my upbringing in the Marquis' Mansion teaches us to send a visiting card before visiting another mansion, rather than just showing up at the door, so that the host can prepare. Similarly, when meeting guests, you need to dress up."

Cui's voice came from the door.

Wu breathed a sigh of relief, then looked behind her. It was empty, without Langjiu's figure, and she immediately became deflated again.

Zhang turned her head and saw Cui with her hair in a low bun, wearing a plain dress with dark blue embroidery and a continuous head pattern. The only thing on her body was a white jade hairpin in her bun, and no other accessories. Her face was frosty, without a trace of smile, and she seemed particularly stern.

A person's aura does not need to be demonstrated by fancy clothes and jewelry, but by his temperament and the pride between his eyebrows.

She was born into a real aristocratic family, the Cui family, and was the widow of a hero. She held the title of fourth rank. Even though she was a widow, she would not be looked down upon.

Even Zhang felt inferior to her when she saw her. She felt guilty for a moment and restrained her savagery. But soon, she straightened her back again. She was just a widow, while her eldest aunt was the young lady of the Xuan clan's Rong family.

Cui came in and looked at Zhang and the servant standing behind her calmly, saying, "Is it the upbringing of the Qi family that you don't show courtesy when meeting people? Or is it that I, a fourth-rank official conferred by the royal family, am not worth mentioning?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang and others changed their expressions and stood up suddenly.

They dare not take the charge of this crime. It is true that the Qi family is a relative of the Xuan clan, but in the eyes of the royal family and the Tian family, they are not worth mentioning.

After all, the world is still ruled by imperial power, and the royal family with the surname Tan Tai is also one of the Xuan clan.

The current imperial teacher is a member of the royal family.

Zhang and the others were used to being arrogant, and now they felt aggrieved and angry, and they knelt down reluctantly to bow to Cui.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wu lowered her eyes, took a handkerchief and pressed the corners of her mouth to cover the slightly upturned mark.

It has to be the second aunt. No matter whether you are a relative of the Xuan clan or not, she dares to confront you and take control of the home court first.

Cui sat down and looked at Zhang and said, "My ninth daughter is weak and is currently receiving acupuncture treatment from the palace doctor. I wonder why Madam Qi is looking for her?"

Zhang snorted coldly and said, "She spoke rudely to my fourth sister and cursed her. Now my fourth sister is frightened and lying in bed in a coma. As the eldest sister-in-law, I naturally want to seek justice for her. How did your family educate your young lady to raise such a vulgar and vicious person?"

Upon hearing this, Cui's eyes flashed with anger, and she said, "In other words, you are here to ask my Ninth Lady to go and apologize to the Fourth Miss of your house?"

Zhang raised her chin proudly: "Of course, my fourth sister is the Princess of Guiyang County appointed by the royal family. Not to mention that she is very close to Concubine Qi, she is also the most favored by our eldest aunt. How could she let it go when she learned that she was ill?"

Wu frowned and pursed her lips, with worry and a hint of sadness in her eyes.

What is using power to oppress people? This is using power to oppress people.

Kaiping Marquis Mansion, this title was obtained by the ancestor of the Lang family when he followed Taizu to conquer the world. He was one of the founding heroes and was a duke and noble. However, in front of the Xuan clan, who were said to be able to cultivate into immortals, it was not worth mentioning, especially for such nobles who were on the decline and could even bully the family of fourth-rank officials.

Just because the other party has established a relationship with the Xuan clan.

If not, how could Zhang, who has no rank at all, dare to be so arrogant? Isn't it just like he is taking a chicken feather as a token of authority?
Cui's face was calm and indifferent. She took a sip of tea and said, "So you want her to apologize, just because she has a vicious mouth and said a few unpleasant words, which made the Guiyang County Lady sick? In this case, how dare you ask her to apologize? Aren't you afraid that she will go crazy and say something even more vicious and unpleasant? After all, her mouth can curse people to be sick. I guess she is so ugly because she asked a master in the countryside to bless her spirit."

Wu chuckled.

Second Aunt and Ninth Sister are really mother and daughter. It would be fine if they didn't speak, but once they open their mouths, they can squeeze people to death.

Seeing this open and indirect sarcasm, Zhang was so angry that her face turned grim and she slammed the table heavily: "Is this the upbringing of your mansion?"

"We have good manners, do you think you are worthy of them?"

A cold voice and footsteps came from the door. Wu's eyes lit up and she stood up.

Here he comes, the vicious-tongued Lang Jiu is here.
