Chapter 22
It was obvious to everyone. This woman still had to ask?
Qu Tang´er endured. She continued with soft and gentle voice while replying big madam.
Big madam once more continued questioning her with a cold voice: „I heard that on the wedding night eighth prince didn´t consummate marriage with you. Was there such thing?“
„Daniang is truly well-informed.“ Qu Tang´er solemnly answered. But these words, using a solemn expression to speak was quite strange.
Big madam coldly asked: „Disgracing. You are bringing shame on us, Qu household! You even have the nerve today, daring to come back alone. Do you know what kind of punishment you are going to bear?“
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFrom start to finish, there was only big madam´s voice questioning. It was obvious that inside the Qu mannor, the one who had the word and made decisions and was sitting at the top was big madam. As for that so-called old master Qu, he was henpecked, thus he also could only be shunt aside.
Qu Tang´er said: „Tang´er doesn´t know.“
„Housekeeper, stand aside. Don´t get in her way.“
„Jing Xin, you also stay aside.“ As big madam opened her mouth and had the housekeeper retreat, Qu Tang´er has also opened her mouth to have Jing Xin go a little further. Without waiting for Jing Xin´s reaction, she conveniently gave her a push. Pus.h.i.+ng her far away.
Old woman Qu having the housekeeper retreating was definitely not a good thing.
Married daughter, spilled water ——
„Married daughter, spilled water.“ At the same time as Qu Tang´er has just contemplated inwardly this sentence, immediately afterwards big madam, who has suddenly emerged, has also scolded with this sentence. Her speech hasn´t been finished yet, all of a sudden, she has ferociously spilled out a tray of cold water.
The water splashed around everywhere. It has accurately splashed toward Qu Tang´er, who was standing on the stairs.
Drip. Drip!
Water was drop by drop falling down.
„This is punishment you should bear.“ Big madam´s face was full of accusations. Inside her eyes was a very deep disgust.
It´s just that when she saw the state of Qu Tang´er after being poured by water, not only her anger didn´t disminish, she was even more furious!
As it turns out.....
Qu Tang´er was still smiling lightly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer hair wasn´t wet, nor were her upper clothes only because she has prepared beforehand. And now, she could finally tell Jing Xin, why it was important to take a beautiful cloak when going out. There was no reason. It was only for blocking a water. Regretfully, the hem of her skirt was not so fortunate. It was a little wet, but it was much better than having the whole body wet.
„Wretched girl. Did you grow wings? You even dare to take a cloak to block?!“ Big madame was furious. Unfortunately, she has spilt all the water inside the plate at once. There was nothing to splash.
„It´s Tang´er´s fault. Tang´er shouldn´t have used the cloak to block water. If big madam is not satisfied, big madam can let others pour one more time.“ Qu Tang´er slightly shrinked her neck, lowering her head, her face showing frightened expression. The corners of her mouth were twitching. She has to resist the urge to laugh. In any case, her current ident.i.ty was eighth princess consort. But it was obvious that these people didn´t see her as eighth princess consort.
These people weren´t conforming with the abiding the rules.
However, they weren´t even a bit aware of that.
At this moment, big madam seeing her acknowledging her giving in, if she still clung to her faults, it would make her appear narrow-minded. She coldly swept a glance at Qu Tang´er and turned fiercely, as if not wis.h.i.+ng to give her more glances. She used the tone of a highborn woman giving a handout, „Why aren´t you still coming in? What are you doing standing there? Are portraying a statue? Unbeknownst how many lifetimes of misfortune we Qu household carried to actually give a birth to such an unworthy daughter. Concentrating only on bringing disgrace to Qu household.“
„Yes. Tang´er will immediately come in.“ Qu Tan´er collected her expression, dropped her glance and slightly lowered her head.
[1] idiom meaning different situations call for different action
[2] here it means mother, but its literal translation would be big mother, since her father has more „wives“ Qu Tang´er refers each according to their order of marrying to Qu mannor like second mother, third mother etc.
