Qin Liangwan lacks a sense of security, which is why she tests in this way.
She tests Lu Ruojiang's patience, tests Lu Ruojiang's love for her, and uses the most direct expression of the other party to comfort her own hesitant heart.
Lu Ruojiang loves Qin Liangwan, so naturally he won't be upset by these things. He is just a little annoyed that he didn't care enough for Qin Liangwan on ordinary days, which is why she acts this way.
Qin Liangwan For the future Lu Ruojiang has no confidence in her feelings, Lu Ruojiang uses all means to prove himself.
Today sending delicacies, tomorrow sending treasures, the day after tomorrow sending splendid attire, Lu Ruojiang's gifts flow into the Marquis of Quling Residence like water, and what's rare is that all these things are what Qin Liangwan likes.
Although these external things cannot represent everything, at least it shows that Lu Ruojiang is willing to search for these things for Qin Liangwan, rather than casually fooling around with things found by subordinates.
However, when delivering gifts, Lu Ruojiang did not forget the other members of the Qin family. He gave Qin Kai, Cui Danlian, and Qin Yang each a fine sword, and presented Qin Miao with some rare books. For Qin Duoting, he gifted some toys that young people in the capital liked.
To the couple Qin Bu and Mao Yuli, Lu Ruojiang gifted a scholar's inkstone along with several sticks of pine soot ink, which are considered priceless by enthusiasts but merely regarded as expensive inkstones and ink sticks by those who are not.
The simplest gifts were some gold and silver jewelry, which made the old lady so delighted that her eyebrows seemed to disappear behind her eyes, instantly becoming the person who liked Lu Ruojiang the most, aside from Qin Liangwan.
At Madame Quan's birthday banquet, Qin Liangwan followed her parents and boarded the carriage heading to Qian Mansion.
However, unlike the relaxed Qin Kai and Cui Danlian, Qin Liangwan felt a twinge of guilt in her heart. After returning from Eiyang Prince's Mansion, Cui Danlian had questioned Qin Liangwan about her and Lu Ruojiang's situation, then began to reprimand her for being so impulsive and reckless in her actions. In the end, she said she would punish Qin Liangwan by making her copy books. When Lu Ruojiang initially wanted Qin Liangwan to read some books, she was unwilling, let alone when it came to Cui Danlian, whom she hadn't seen in many years.
Qin Liangwan immediately prepared to run away from home and chose her loyal and generous friend, Quan Can, after considering her options.
Upon arriving at Qian Mansion, Qu Shuqing naturally would not refuse Qin Liangwan's request for shelter and had someone take her to Quan Can's room. However, Lin Buxun, who was also visiting Qian Mansion, saw Qin Liangwan and felt that his troubled situation had found a breakthrough opportunity, so he made an excuse to stay as well.
The next day, Lin Buxun took advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention to approach Qin Liangwan. He informed her about the situation regarding General Quan's reluctance to reveal the surveying map of the land of Shu. He also explained the stakes involved, hoping that she could help him retrieve the map. Considering Quan Can's brilliance and thinking of Uncle Wan, Qin Liangwan weighed the pros and cons before agreeing to Lin Buxun's request.
In the end, Qin Liangwan successfully obtained the geomantic map, but after Lin Buxun left, Quan Shuqing, who was determined to treat the geomantic map as a treasure map, was severely dealt with by Madame Quan.
Although Quan Shuqing might not hold a grudge against her, that did not prevent Qin Liangwan from feeling guilty. After all, Madame Quan had just taken her in when she ran away from home, and she turned around to... that was rather inconsiderate.
If it weren't for the fact that she had to come today and had her own little plans, Qin Liangwan truly would not have wanted to visit Qian Mansion in such a short time.
*Qin Kai saw Quan Shuqing walking with a smile, but was surprised to find that he was moving with some difficulty. "Brother Quan, what's wrong with you?"
Quan Shuqing's face showed a hint of embarrassment. "Old injury relapse, it's nothing serious, I'll be fine in a few days."
"Oh, Quan, you really need to take care of yourself!" Qin Kai expressed genuine concern for Quan Shuqing. Quan Shuqing didn't feel touched by this, but instead felt more embarrassed. He awkwardly replied, "I will, I will."
