Qi Xiuying - Another Transmigrate's Story 8 Chapter 7

They also saw Du run after her young miss with worry in her eyes and thought that she is sad for Xiuying if only they knew that Du'er is worrying how to fix her young miss' ruined dress as it was personally ordered to be made by her Madam, Xiuying's mother.

Meanwhile in the main hall ten people are discussing the current year issues and plans of the clan.

"Chen'er I heard that your new business is doing well and since your only son is in military why don't you take your brothers' eldest sons to train and help you manage the businesses." First Elder suggested to Xiuying's father as a merchant since his younger years how can he not see through the elders plan to take over his branch's businesses.

"We can have that arrange however as I've started my stores from scratch I would like them to start as helpers as I did back then." Qi Chen answered smiling politely as always.

"How can you let the young masters of our clan work as helpers!" First Elder's wife Fa Qing shouted she won't let her grandsons be treated as servants. They are the future masters of Qi clan and shouldn't be dirtied as they work!

"Oh but when I was starting why I was asked to do the same. I want them to experience and be molded as good merchants by knowing every aspect of my businesses." Chen still answered politely, emphasizing that it is his businesses and not part of the clan properties, as though he didn't see the anger in Fa Qing's eyes.

"Stop your outburst Fa Qing!" Qi Bao domineering voice echoed in the hall. He can only swallow the anger he has since he needs to keep his face in front of his siblings and members of the clan. He won't give his brother's son Qi Chen any reason to rebel. He was only able to get the position as Patriach of the clan when he schemed against Chen's father and since then he would always show them since benevolent side while attacking behind their backs.

"Chen'er is right every young master of our family needs to experience what he did that will help them realize the importance of each aspect of business operations."

Suddenly they heard the door of the main hall opened by force and see a young lady crying while rus.h.i.+ng to Chen and her wife Xi Hui, her dress is dirty the same goes with her face that is covered with snots and tears despite her messy appearance it didn't diminish her beauty. Her eyes full of tears make people pity her, to eagerly protect and bring her justice.

"Outrageous! How can a young miss of Qi clan just disturb the elders meeting!" Fa Qing berated the young lady, the First Elder just glared at his wife who acts like a shrew lady in the market. Fa Qing shuts her mouth seeing that glare she knows she over reacted.

"Xiuying what are you doing here, you haven't fully recovered from your illness?" Xi Hui gently reprimanded Xiuying, she knows this is the start of her sudden play. Her husband also noticed the mischief glint in their daughter's eyes and they tend to play along.

That is Xiuying!!!

The elders and old patriach are shocked to hear Xi Hui calling the lady Xiuying. Does this mean the plan of First Elder and his father the Old Patriach to replace Xiuying in the marriage alliance with Long clan failed?

With Xiuying running to the hall they clearly see that she is now well, why didn't they know this?! The First Elder glanced at his father and the other nod understanding what his son is thinking.
