Marrying into a poor family

It would be a long night and many dreams, so Qiao Dazhuang directly chose the nearest date to get married. Ten days later, the Xiao family would have a wedding banquet.

Xiao Chenyu came back that night.

The couple was lying on the bed, and Qin Xiang mentioned that the Li family went to Fushui Town.

"What are they doing in Fushui Town?" Xiao Chenyu hugged his wife, but because his wife was pregnant and could not do anything, he was too busy to listen to Qin Xiang's words.

"The problem is, they didn't do anything but look at the burning house."

"A house on fire?" Xiao Chenyu repeated casually, then he reacted and turned to look at Qin Xiang: "They went in?"

"I went in, but it only took a cup of tea to get out."

The couple both thought of one thing. Xiao Chenyu frowned and said hesitantly: "Is it possible that the account book has something to do with the Li family?"

In fact, if you think about it carefully, the town here was on fire just a few days after the Li family's former county magistrate was unlucky. Maybe it really has something to do with it!
Qin Xiang turned sideways and faced Xiao Chenyu and analyzed: "Tell me, is it possible that this underground gambling house was actually run by the Li family, or that he was involved. And the new county magistrate, in order to seize certain benefits, and Li There was a conflict between the county magistrates. In the end, the county magistrate of the Li family was defeated. However, he was unwilling to accept it and simply sent someone to burn down the gambling house. Anyway, I wouldn’t leave anything I couldn’t get to my opponent. .”

Xiao Chenyu smiled and said: "It makes some sense, but I don't think things will be that simple."

"Of course it's not simple. Fortunately, no one suspects that the account book is in our hands. Otherwise, we might be in danger."

When Qin Xiang was talking about the account books, she came close to Xiao Chenyu's ear, lowered her voice, and sprayed hot air on Xiao Chenyu's ears, making his blood surge. He stretched out his arms to hug Qin Xiang and said, "Sleep, don't think about it. These things.”

Qin Xiang called Xiao Chenyu back, firstly to make him be more careful, and secondly because she missed him a little.

At this time, Qin Xiang fell asleep peacefully in Xiao Chenyu's arms.

The next day, Xiao Chenyu went back to Xuanmiao Temple early in the morning, and Qin Xiang called Liu Xilai.

"How are you doing in the county government now?"

Liu Xi said it was okay, but he had just arrived and hadn't figured out the way around it yet. He added, "Although there are not many people in the county government, there are many factions. Although I am in charge of the document warehouse, there are always people who come to borrow and deliver documents." To show goodwill, say a few words, but anyway, I just pretended to be confused and passed away laughing."

Qin Xian said: "It's good to be cautious, but you also have to be gregarious. Anyway, you don't have to worry about having too many friends."

After finishing speaking, he thought for a while and then said: "Do you still remember the fire in our town?"

"Remember, who in Fushui Town doesn't know about it?" Liu Xi said carelessly and realized that Qin Xiu probably had something to say.

Before Qin Xiang could say anything, a thought suddenly flashed through Liu Xi's mind and he asked: "Sister-in-law, do you want me to inquire about the fire in the Yamen?"

I have to say that Liu Xi is getting smarter and smarter.

Qin Xiang nodded: "Yes, but this matter is deeply involved. You must be careful and careful not to show your flaws and be targeted by others."

Liu Xi nodded solemnly, and then asked: "Sister-in-law, why do you suddenly want to ask about this?"

"To tell you the truth, people from the county government have been tracking down people who entered the fire scene, and that night, your brother" Qin Xiang stopped talking and told Liu Xi with only his eyes: Xiao Chenyu had gone in.

Liu Xi naturally knew that the county government officials had been checking people who entered the fire scene for a long time. It was said that in addition to Lu Da from the escort agency, there was another person who entered the yard that night, but Liu Xi never expected that that person was Xiao Chenyu!

"Sister-in-law, don't say any more, I understand." Liu Xi stood up and prepared to go to the Yamen.

"Wait a minute!" Qin Xian called to Liu Xi and said, "If you want to stay in the Yamen, you will need money to treat people to eat and drink. Here are 50 taels of silver notes. You can take it with you in case of emergency. If you are short of money, just say That’s it.”

Liu Xi wanted to say that he had money, but after thinking about it, he took it anyway: "Okay, I know how to do it, sister-in-law, don't worry."

However, Liu Xi, apart from quickly becoming famous in the county government office, did not find out anything about the fire, and no one in the government office was willing to mention it.

After Liu Xi told Qin Xiang, Qin Xiang told him not to worry about it, but Liu Xi felt uneasy and began to check the documents in the warehouse intentionally or unintentionally. He called it cleaning the warehouse to check whether the documents were damp, moldy or infested by insects. .

In short, although he didn't find anything useful, he read all the past cases of the county government. After seeing too many tragic cases, Liu Xi grew up quickly and became calmer.

Two months later, Xiao Chenyu finally gained the title of scholar. Su was so happy that she and Li Siniang made preparations to celebrate.

Lu Jiu was also in Qijiang County at this time, and he also followed suit and wanted to give a generous gift to his brother-in-law.

On the day of the banquet, even Xiao Hanyang came. However, Xiao Hanyang looked a little sluggish, and his eyes were a little green, which seemed to be caused by lack of sleep.

Xiao Chenyu has never seen Xiao Hanyang since he left the county school. Seeing him like this now, he couldn't help but pull him aside and ask him what's wrong?
Xiao Hanyang waved away Xiao Chenyu's hand and said calmly: "What's the matter with me? It's just that I've been late in studying recently."

Xiao Chenyu didn't quite believe it, but it was hard to get to the bottom of it. After all, the relationship between the two families was quite difficult to explain.

When Xiao Hanyang saw Qin Xun's pregnant belly, he was confused for a moment. On this day, Xiao Hanyang was drunk and was sent back by Qiao Dazhuang.

Seeing her son in such a miserable state, Xiao Hanyang's mother was so angry that she had nowhere to vent her anger. When she heard that Qiao Dazhuang was from the Xiao family, she even lost her temper. She helped her son in and slammed the door.

Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu were meeting the servants of the Qin family in Dancheng at home.

"My husband has been feeling unwell for more than two months. He has been asking for medical advice. His health has improved for a while, but it has relapsed for a while. Even so, he can still eat and sleep, and it is not a serious problem. He just vomited blood suddenly a few days ago. , and fell into a coma for two days. When he woke up, he said he wanted to see the children, and the old lady decided to send me to take you back."

This man was very old and was very good at talking and doing things. He was hunched over the whole time and spoke politely. It was hard for Qin Xiang to vent her anger on him.

The identities of Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu are somewhat different. Everyone knows that Qin Xiang is Qin Xiongfei's daughter, but she has never entered the Qin family seriously.

What is this nowadays?Let Qin Xiang and his wife go back to see Qin Xiongfei for the last time?
Qin Xiang turned to look at Xiao Chenyu. She was a little undecided. After all, Qin Xiongfei did not die young in his previous life. Could it be that things are completely different in this life?

Xiao Chenyu asked the old man: "Why did my father-in-law suddenly become ill? Wasn't he always well before?"

The old man raised his cloudy eyes and looked at Xiao Chenyu, hesitating to speak, he opened his mouth and said, "I don't know the details of these things, but..."

His eyes scanned the faces of Xiao Chenyu and Qin Xiang, and then he continued: "However, the fourth wife dealt with a young master and his aunt who just returned home not long ago. We servants don't know if they are with the master. Is it related?"
