Chapter 124 Asking for a Status for My Daughter
Zhou Ziqi's face suddenly turned dark.
I didn't expect that even the servants were so disrespectful to me and looked down on me like that!
Even if I am just a concubine.
But, she is also the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Xingchang.
Now, these guards at the gate look down on me.
Zhou Ziqi took a deep breath.
He frowned and looked at the guard.
She gnashed her teeth and said, "Open your dog eyes and see! I am the daughter of the Marquis of Xingchang!"
When the guard heard this, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Ziqi.
He sneered, "Nowadays, everyone knows that it was the second young lady of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion who offered herself to be his concubine, and that's why she came to the Qiguogong Mansion to be his concubine. This position of concubine was obtained by the seventh young lady of the Zhenguogong Mansion with her own face. Our young master has no intention of accepting it."
Another guard also echoed, "Yes, if it was a decent girl from an ordinary family, she wouldn't do such a thing. If my daughter did such a thing, I would definitely give her a white silk and kill her! I wouldn't let her come out and embarrass herself like this."
A hint of sadness emerged in Zhou Ziqi's eyes.
Now, even a gatekeeper dares to humiliate himself like this!
Old Madam Zhou, who was standing by, suddenly took a step forward.
He chopped the crutch in his hand hard.
A hint of coldness flashed across his eyes: "Then I want to ask the Duke's wife how she disciplines her servants! I am the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion, but I have to let the villains of the Duke of Qi's Mansion humiliate my daughter in front of me!"
The two guards realized it belatedly and turned their eyes to Madam Zhou.
Seeing that Madam Zhou was dressed elegantly, I listened to her self-introduction.
The two of them reacted immediately and quickly bowed to Old Madam Zhou.
The leading guard replied, "Madam, I don't have the courage to do that, but concubines cannot go through the front door. This is the rule for the wives of the Dukes, and it has been the rule for generations."
Old Madam Zhou found it extremely ridiculous to see the two men being so afraid of trouble.
He then asked, "With my status, am I not allowed to enter the gate of the Duke of Qi's Mansion?"
The two guards looked at each other.
Then he replied, "To come to the Duke of Qi's mansion, one must send a visiting card. I wonder if the Countess has one? I don't think she has one, right? If she had, the Countess would have known that the Duke's wife and the young mistress have gone to pay respect to the Buddha today."
Mrs. Zhou's expression froze.
She didn't expect that now was the wrong time.
The Duke's wife is not at home. What should I say?
His face hesitated.
The guard from before then spoke again, "Old Madam, please leave. The Duke's wife has returned home and we don't know when she will be back."
After a pause, the guard looked at Zhou Ziqi again.
She continued, "A concubine cannot go through the front door. You should go through the side door."
It was indeed because Chu Tianxiang had married too many concubines.
If they were allowed to go in through the main gate, I'm afraid the threshold of the gate would be broken down.
That's why the old lady in the Duke of Qi's mansion proposed that concubines were not allowed to enter through the front door.
When Zhou Ziqi heard this, there was a hint of anxiety on his face.
I couldn't help but look at Madam Zhou.
Old Madam Zhou sighed heavily, and when she looked at Zhou Ziqi, her face was full of heartache.
She knew that just because these two servants dared to bully her daughter, it was enough to guess that Zhou Ziqi was not having a good time in the Duke of Qi's mansion.
Today, she must ask for a concubine position for her daughter.
Thinking of this, Old Madam Zhou stood in front of the gate of Duke Qi's Mansion.
He looked at the guard coldly.
The guard was puzzled: "Old Madam, please don't embarrass me. The Duke's wife really went to worship Buddha with the young lady. I don't know when they will be back."
Old Madam Zhou chopped the cane in her hand.
With a look of persistence, he said, "Then I will wait here at the door until the Duke's wife comes back. Even if they don't come back, the young master should come back too!"
She must speak up for her daughter!
The two guards looked at each other, their eyes filled with helplessness.
"If the old lady insists on doing this, we have nothing to say."
Just at this moment, another carriage stopped in front of the gate of Duke Qi's Mansion.
Old Madam Zhou and Zhou Ziqi heard the voice and turned around to look.
The person who got off the carriage was Chu Tianxiang.
A smile suddenly appeared on Mrs. Zhou's face.
But in the next moment, the expressions of Old Madam Zhou and Zhou Ziqi turned ugly again.
I saw a woman getting out of the carriage.
The woman was dressed in only a transparent gauze, her figure vaguely visible.
From this glance, it is clear that he is a person of the mundane world.
At this time, Chu Tianxiang also saw Old Madam Zhou and Zhou Ziqi.
Chu Tianxiang put his arm around the woman's waist and walked towards Old Madam Zhou.
When you get closer.
Chu Tianxiang narrowed his eyes and looked at Madam Zhou.
Then he turned his gaze to Zhou Ziqi.
With a hint of ridicule, she said, "Why? Didn't you say you didn't want to follow me? Why are you back now with eager eyes? Is this the temper of a girl from the Marquis of Xingchang Mansion?"
Chu Tianxiang's words were full of sarcasm.
Zhou Ziqi pretended not to hear these words.
He pointed at the girl that Chu Tianxiang was hugging.
Gnashing his teeth, he asked, "Chu Tianxiang! Who is this?"
Chu Tianxiang was not angry when Zhou Ziqi pointed at his nose like that.
Just stunned.
Then he turned his head to look at the girl next to him, stretched out his finger and lifted the girl's chin.
Turn around and look at Zhou Ziqi.
With a hint of Meng Lang's smile in his eyes, he said, "Who is she? Who else could she be? The new girl from Chunfeng Tower has been redeemed by me. When the time comes, she will also be a concubine of the Duke of Qi's Mansion and a sister to you."
Hearing this, a trace of pain appeared in Zhou Ziqi's eyes.
There are many ways to insult people.
However, Zhou Ziqi did not expect that Chu Tianxiang would use a brothel girl to insult him like this.
Old Madam Zhou, who was standing by, also saw this scene.
His face was extremely gloomy.
He immediately took a step forward and stood in front of Zhou Ziqi.
Looking directly at Chu Tianxiang: "Young Master, isn't this a bit too much?"
Chu Tianxiang's half-drunk eyes opened slightly.
The eyes, which were already squeezed together due to fat, looked even smaller.
He half-closed his eyes and looked at Madam Zhou.
Then he thought for a moment and asked, “Who are you?”
Old Madam Zhou took a deep breath.
Looking directly at Chu Tianxiang, she gnashed her teeth and replied, "I am the Marquise of the Xingchang Marquisate! I am also Ziqi's mother! Who do you think I am?"
Chu Tianxiang was startled suddenly and pushed away the woman beside him.
Surprised, "You are the Marquise?"
