Chapter 6 Qin Mansion (Part One)

The news that Wendy took several people to Qin Mansion came to the ears of Mistress Elena. Her face turned pale. "Mammy, why would Wendy go to Qin Mansion all of a sudden?"

Mammy Lin frowned and said, "My Lady, I'm afraid that Miss Wendy was instigated by someone."

"What should I do? I severed my relationship with Qin Mansion in order to avoid Prime Minister Boris taking advantage of Qin Mansion. I didn't expect that he would be so shameless to take advantage of Wendy. Mammy, what should I do?" Elena asked anxiously. She didn't want to put her parents into trouble after married. Moreover, it was her who insisted on marrying, so she ended up like this. Boris used her love, and she didn't want her family to be used by him again.

"My Lady, you'd better make it clear to Miss Wendy. I don't think she is an unreasonable person. If you make it clear to her, she will understand your good intention." Mammy Lin comforted her.

Elena gritted her teeth, "That's all I can do. I can't let them take advantage of my Wendy."

Mammy Lin looked at Elena's anxious look and shook her head. Since Miss Wendy was born, it was not easy for Elena to get pregnant. If she had an eldest son, then her status as the principal wife of Prime Minister would be secure. At this time, she should not sever the relationship with Qin Mansion. On the contrary, she should take advantage of the power of Qin Mansion to ensure the safety of her son! But she knew Elena wouldn't listen to her.

The next morning, Wendy left the house with Judy. When they arrived at the door, they saw Alice who was dressed up well. And what Wendy wore was simple and elegant. She were almost defeated by Alice.

"My little sister." said Wendy, hiding the schemes in her eyes.

"Sister, father asked me to go to grandpa's home with you. Sister, I have never been there before. Is grandpa very strict?" As soon as Alice got on the carriage, she kept on asking Wendy. People who didn't know her would think that Qin family was her grand family.

Being cultured, Wendy looked at Alice quietly with a faint smile on her face. It might not be a big deal if Wendy only looked at Alice for a short time. However, the gaze made Alice feel uncomfortable.

"By the way, sister. I heard that you have beaten Lucy. What did she do?"

"Insubordination." Wendy calmly said while smoothed out the wrinkles on the sleeves.

"Insubordination?" Alice pretended to be innocent, "Is it serious? Are you going to beat her to death?"

Wendy stopped her action for a while, and then continued as if she didn't hear what was said, "Since the past, it is a taboo for officials that servants below me make mistakes. If not severe punishment, people may think that masters of mansion are easy to bully, and even a servant can go against master. Only those small families and ordinary people will tolerate this kind of things."

Alice's face changed, but soon she put on a smile and said, "Lucy really deserved it, my sister. You haven't told me about the affair in Qin Mansion."

"Sister, what does Qin Mansion look like? Is it more luxurious than ours?"

"Sister, are grandfather and grandmother very kind people?"

"Sister, is Cousin Shawn easy to get along with?"

Hearing the questions from Alice, Wendy just gave her a faint smile. But Alice didn't mind it at all. Excitement was still on her face. She rolled up the curtain and looked out the window. She was so excited about the bustling street market.

"Miss Wendy, Miss Alice, we've arrived at Qin Mansion."

Wendy nodded. Judy opened the curtain in a hurry and helped Wendy get off the carriage. But Alice pushed Wendy away and jumped off the carriage. Wendy didn't care about it at all, but got off the carriage at ease. Because a bow had been handed over yesterday, so the guards at the gate of the mansion had been keeping an eye on them.

"Wendy."

Wendy saw a noble lady, who turned out to be Sherrie, the principal wife of Lord Qin, her uncle. With tears in her eyes, she called, "Auntie."

"Hey, good girl, you finally come to see us. Don't stand in the doorway. Come in. Dad and mom have been talking about you."

"Auntie." Alice also followed them and held Sherrie's arm.

Sherrie frowned and looked at Wendy, "Wendy, this is..."

"She is my sister, Auntie Elena's daughter." "She never went out, so my father asked me to take her out for a walk." Wendy answered with a smile.

"Auntie, my sister and I are the best, and she likes me the most, so she takes me here. Auntie, let me help you, be careful..."

Sherrie shook off Alice's hand and said, "You're welcome. Just call me Lady Sherrie."

Alice's face twisted in anger, but she suppressed it when she thought of who the person was. She clenched her teeth as she watched Wendy go with Sherrie, but she followed them as if she didn't care at all.

"Sister, wait for me!"

From the corner of eyes, Sherrie looked at Alice who was running after her and pinched Wendy's hand, "Your sister is always a pain in the ass."

Wendy smiled as if she knew what Sherrie was talking about. Immediately, Sherrie realized that Elena's daughter was not as stubborn as Elena, and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to meet your grandparents."

In the hall, Old Lord Qin drank tea from time to time, his eyes constantly glanced at the door, and his wife kept staring at the door too. Since Wendy had never come to Qin Mansion, she took the initiative to visit them today. They were very excited.

"Father, mother, don't worry. Sherrie has gone to pick her up. We will see her soon." Lord Qin said with a smile.

Old Lord sipped his tea and said, "Yes. Don't worry."

"Humph, who is anxious?" Old Lord Lady glared at Old Lord.
