The Rebirth of the First Daughter as the Head of the Family

Chapter 70 Accident
Song Jinyue got up hastily, stepped forward to help Qin Wan up, and frowned slightly, "Get up and talk, what's the matter?"

Only then did Qin Wan get up slowly, looked at Song Jinyue, and whimpered, "My brother has been arrested by the government, and I don't know when he will be released... But, the scientific examination is approaching now, if we can't make it..."

If he can't catch up with this year's scientific examination, my brother will have to wait another three years.

But things in life are always impermanent.

Three years...

There are too many unknowns and many unpredictable things.

"Tell me in detail first, let me listen."

Qin Wan calmed down slowly, wiped away the tears at the end of her eyes, and said eloquently, "Aunt Li, she, she reported to the police, saying that we owe her rent..."

Song Jinyue paused after hearing this.

Aunt Li?West Street Anfu Hutong, the owner of the courtyard where the brothers and sisters of the Qin family rented.

Song Jinyue can still vividly remember the situation of that day, if it wasn't because of that Mrs. Li's bullying, how could she have rescued the brothers and sisters of the Qin family.

"Early this morning, the official sent to the Cuixiang Restaurant and took my elder brother to the Yamen. Now my brother has not returned. Today, the clerk of the Cuixiang Restaurant felt that something was wrong, and asked the mother-in-law to tell me about it from the back door. to me."

A trace of sadness flashed across Qin Wan's eyes, "Second Miss Song, I know it's really difficult to ask you to come forward, but... but I have no other choice but to beg you."

After the words fell, Qin Wan lowered her head and wept silently.

If she had the slightest idea, she would never come to Miss Song Er for help.

After all, on the streets of the capital, those women who usually go about their business and like to tell tales have already spread the rumors between their elder brother and Miss Song to the extreme.

A few days ago, the fifth prince came to question Miss Song Er.

Qin Wan felt extremely guilty.

But now the sky is already dark, and the yamen has already closed the door.

"Miss Qin, don't worry, the yamen is closed now, I'll send someone to take care of it first, and tomorrow morning, I will personally go to the yamen to pick up your brother."

Song Jinyue supported Qin Wan's trembling body, and said, "You rest earlier, and tomorrow morning, come with me to pick up your brother."

Qin Wan agreed with the matter with a nod of her head, then said goodbye and went back to rest.

Qiu Yun waited on her young lady to clean up, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Miss, if you come forward, the rumors in Beijing may be able to eat people..."

Song Jinyue took down the last velvet flower from the hairpin, and said lightly, "It's okay, if I don't show up, even if Mr. Qin clears his suspicions in the end, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with this scientific examination, and besides..."

Song Jinyue didn't say anything about the rest.

A candidate who has a record before the exam starts, if he wants to step into the exam room, he may not be able to.

"But miss, you can't ignore yourself." Qiu Yun tried to persuade her again, her miss had already helped the brothers and sisters of the Qin family a lot.

The current rumors in the capital have already hurt the young lady's reputation.

Now if you continue to help Mr. Qin to confront him in court, it will inevitably cause people to involuntarily spread rumors,

"It's nothing." Song Jinyue turned around and patted the back of Qiu Yun's hand, knowing her kindness in her heart.

But now she has to help Qin Sheng.

He also instructed Qiu Yun: "Pai Xiangwu took my token and went to the yamen to check one or two. Don't ask the officials to embarrass Mr. Qin."

Qiu Yun also knew that no matter how much she tried to persuade Miss Zijiao, she would not listen.

He just said "yes" and stepped back.

Song Jinyue got up and sat on the couch, flipping through the scripture book in her hand and reading.

She was waiting for Qiu Yun to come back.

When Qiu Yun returned to the mansion, the moon hung in the west, "Miss, everything is settled, you can rest at ease."

Song Jinyue fell asleep in peace.

Early the next morning, when the yamen opened, Song Jinyue took Qiu Yun and Qin Wan into the carriage of the Duke's mansion and headed straight for the yamen.

Qin Sheng was imprisoned in Jingzhao Yamen in the capital.

The carriage from the Duke's Mansion just arrived at Jing Zhaoyin, Song Jinyue got off the carriage, and saw Aunt Li staring at their carriage with folded arms and a sneer.

When Qin Wan saw Aunt Li, her delicate face was blushing, obviously very angry.

"Let's go." Song Jinyue said lightly, striding towards Jing Zhaoyin's gate.

Seeing that Qin Wan was still in a daze, Qiu Yun pulled Qin Wan and walked in together, persuading her. "Miss Qin, we are here to deal with business today. Don't argue with that old lady. It would be bad if we missed the business."

Only then did Qin Wan look away and nodded.

Master Wang of Jing Zhaoyin was frowning and looking in the direction of the door.

A group of people were kneeling on the ground, Lord Wang raised his voice and asked: "Who is kneeling in the hall, and why did they come here?"

"My lord, Li, the daughter of the people, sue the brothers and sisters of the Qin family for arrears of rent to the women." Aunt Li said impatiently.

"My lord, my lady is the second lady of Song Guogong's mansion. She came here today to be a witness for Mr. Qin." Qiu Yun replied on behalf of her lady.

Mr. Wang knew Song Jinyue's identity, and he sent the Duke's Mansion to take care of the impoverished student in the prison last night.

Sure enough, the rumors outside the capital are not groundless.

If the Second Miss of the Song family who is engaged to the fifth prince says that she has nothing to do with that Young Master Qin in the prison, no one will believe it.

"Nonsense, don't rely on your identities to distort black and white!" Li Pozi sternly reprimanded immediately.

Lord Wang furrowed his brows again, glared at Mrs. Li angrily, patted the gavel, and reprimanded: "Above the court, how can you let your mother-in-law make noise!"

Only then did Mrs. Li shrank her neck and remained silent.

Mr. Wang ordered the officer to bring a stool and motioned for Song Jinyue to sit down and talk.

After she sat down, Qin Sheng was escorted up by the officials. It was only one night. Qin Sheng's face was rather sloppy, and he didn't have much energy in looking at it.

"Aunt Li, I personally handed over ten liang of silver to you that day, and the neighbors in Anfu Hutong saw it. Do you really want to sue the brothers and sisters of the Qin family for defaulting on your rent?" Song Jinyue glanced lightly at Granny Li.

There is also a little more impatience in the eyes.

That Mrs. Li was not discouraged at all, she held her chest up, and said: "Second Miss Song, you have nothing to prove, why don't you ask the officials to go to Anfu Hutong to inquire, and see if you gave my old lady ten taels of silver!"

Mr. Wang glared at Mrs. Li angrily.

Seeing that Mrs. Li was bound to win, she folded her arms and looked at Song Jinyue with a sneer.

"I sent people to Anfu Hutong to inquire about it yesterday, and the neighbors said they didn't see it." Lord Wang reminded.

He was promoted to court yesterday, and the case was sentenced.

Qin Sheng was put in prison and locked up for three months, and chose a date to pay off the debt that Mrs. Li said he owed.

Song Jinyue looked at Mrs. Li with a sneer, could there be someone behind her?
There were so many people watching that day, but now no one has come forward to testify!

"My lord, why don't you let me take a walk in Anfu Hutong? I don't believe it. Is it possible that Mrs. Li has all eyes and hands? How can I come to quarrel with this woman for a mere ten taels of silver?" Court?"
