Just as he was planning to have a nice talk with Jia Rong in Huifang Garden, a maid intercepted him midway.

The maid said: "Grandma told Uncle Qin again, please don't come with me. This will save grandma from getting upset over this matter again!"

After Qin Zhong heard this, he looked at Jia Rong's face.

well……

The poor guy, the dignified eldest grandson of Ningguo Mansion and the future inheritor of the title, was so suppressed by his foreign wife that he lost his temper at all.

He patted Jia Rong's shoulder and sighed in a low voice: "It seems that I was wrong at the beginning. I shouldn't have told you about the Xia family. Alas... you have to stand up and not be controlled by her all the time. Otherwise, how can this life be easy?"

"Qing Jing understands me! Qing Jing understands me!" Jia Rong was so moved that she almost cried, "Qing Jing must think of a way for me."

"well……"

[Jia Rong’s favorability +3, Yangshou increased by 3 days (current favorability: 68)]

Qin Zhong was also extremely helpless. He couldn't understand even more. How could a majestic Duke still be unable to subdue an orphan girl from an imperial merchant?

No matter how powerful Xia Jingui is, what can Xia Jingui do if he shamelessly reveals the gap in status? In the final analysis, Jia Rong himself is not tough enough!

He was thinking this, but there was a lot of embarrassment on his face, and he didn't really want to see Xia Jingui.

Jia Rong said: "Just go ahead, Qing Jing, as long as you don't teach her how to deal with me. If we delay for a long time, she should make excuses to blame me."

Qin Zhong was speechless after hearing this. He pulled Jia Rong aside and whispered: "Why are you so afraid of her?"

Jia Rong said anxiously: "We will discuss it later, we will discuss it later!"

Qin Zhong had no choice but to let Jia Rong go and follow the maid to the East courtyard of Dongfu.

"Uncle Zhong, please wait outside the door while your maid goes in to report to grandma."

Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Jia Rong was not here at the moment, so it would be really hard to explain if he went directly into the courtyard.

In the room, Xia Jingui was feeling warm both physically and mentally. She plucked the golden osmanthus skirt with her delicate hands, and when she raised her head, she stroked her exquisitely and dignified dark hair on the temples. The golden hairpin tassels swaying on the side of her bun added a bit of bright and elegant aura.

I haven't slept well these past few days, and I slept all day today. Alas, I wasted all my leave requests, and I haven't been able to work full time this month...crying
