Hilarious Pampered Consort: Lord I Will Wait for Your Divorce Chapter 21

Chapter 21
If sedan chair was compared with carriage, it has naturally wasted some times. And her, deliberately, giving up on carriage and instead choosing sedan chair was exactly because she wanted to waste a little bit of time.
But no matter how slow was the speed, the sedan chair will still stop in front of Qu mannor´s gate.
When Qu Tang´er came out from sedan chair and lifted her gaze, she could then see a golden plaque hung on the gate. She felt it was too dazzling to her eyes. At this moment, even she couldn´t figure out, if it was because suns.h.i.+ne was too intense or if it was her imagination.
Qu mannor´s housekeeper was already waiting outside. Once he saw Qu Tang´er come out from sedan chair, seemingly respectful, he went to greet them. Yet, he just swept a glance at Qu Tang´er. Afterwards, he paid no more attention to her. Suddenly, he looked at interior of sedan chair, as if to check up something. Seeing that inside was no one else, a contempt flashed through him.
„What is housekeeper trying to find?“ Although Qu Tang´er was asking this way, but inside her heart she understood very well, what housekeeper´s action meant. He was simply checking, if Mo Liancheng accompanied her or not.
„Fourth miss, This old slave was just wondering, why didn´t his eighth highness come with miss.“ Housekeeper turned his gaze away from the interior of sedan chair and puzzledly asked Qu Tang´er.
„Presumptuous!“ Qu Tang´er hasn´t even spoken, Jing Xin beside has already berated, „Master is already princess consort. She is no longer miss of Qu mannor. Also, housekeeper should put yourself in the proper mindset. When you see her highness, don´t you even salute?“
Housekeeper seemed to be alarmed. He hurriedly saluted, seeking for a forgiveness.
However, the housekeeper secretly sent a hint to another figure inside the entrance. And that observing figure, hastily run to the main house.
Qu Tang´er smiled faintly, not exposing it.
The housekeeper was a dog kept by big madam. She already knew it.
Bride´s home visit. Big madam has probably already received the news, that Qu Tang´er will visit her parental home alone. But, she still worried that there will be changes in the midway, so she ordered the housekeeper to do greetings. If she received the news, that Mo Liancheng will come, they would have probably personally guarded the gate to adequately show their att.i.tude.
Let it be. Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir![1]
„Jing Xin. Let´s go inside.“ Qu tang´er frowned.
„Yes.“ Jing Xin nodded. Following Qu Tang´er, inwardly she become worried.
Pa.s.sing by the receiving room, Qu tang´er´s mind gradually calmed down. Qu mannor couldn´t be regarded as luxurious. It also didn´t have a beautiful construction. This was not because Qu Jianglin was poor, but because he did a sufficient job for his outward image. Minister of war did have a lot of income, but if their home was too excessive, it will make some jealous officials accuse them of misconduct. if they got saddled up with a reputation of a corrupted official, things would be bad.
Seeing that she was going to reach main hall…..
„You have returned.“
Qu Tang´er has just took a few steps, a woman´s peculiar voice carried out from the inside.
There was no need to guess. It was Qu Jianglin´s princ.i.p.al wife, big madam´s voice.
„Replying to Daniang[2], Tang´er has come.“ She did come, but not to return. She has already married, so her home was not here. Was this big madam reminding her that her life still belonged to Qu mannor? Qu Tang´er looked calm, yet a mockery was hidden inside her eyes.
„Eighth prince did not accompany you? Big madam questioned with a stern voice.
How come she felt that these words were rather cold? Qu Tang´er tugged at her cloak. She let Jing Xin help her drape it over her before getting out from sedan chair.
But she still obediently replied, „Daniang, eighth prince didn´t come.“
Indeed. Mo Liancheng didn´t come together with her.
„Why didn´t he come?“
„Eighth prince said that he is busy, had no free time.“ Why? Isn´t it useless to ask? It´s the other person who didn´t even bother to come here!
