Marrying into a poor family

Qin Xiongfei saw the young couple's actions and suddenly remembered the first time he saw Su.

Qin Xiongfei was amazed when he saw Su for the first time. He seemed to be like a young man who had just started to fall in love, wanting to be with Su every day, let alone leaving.

However, after leaving, he had many women. Ye, Zhou, etc. all said that he was a playboy, which was probably true. Anyway, he loved every woman to the core when he first met them. However, he was very It’s hard to be in love forever.

Later, when there were more women, his heart no longer had such pure feelings.

Unexpectedly, at this time, he saw the pure emotion on his daughter and son-in-law's face again.

"How is your mother doing?" Qin Xiongfei suddenly asked about Su, which made Qin Xiang a little strange.

"It's very good." Qin Xiang didn't want to say more, but Su Shi was indeed very good.

"Father-in-law, just say what you have to say." Xiao Chenyu also felt that the aroma and medicinal smell in the room were mixed, which made him very uncomfortable, so he interrupted Qin Xiongfei's meaningless greetings.

"." Qin Xiongfei glared at Xiao Chenyu displeasedly, but now he no longer had much majesty.

So when he saw that the two people opposite him were not afraid of him at all, Qin Xiongfei had to accept the fact and said: "Qin Xiang, I want to ask you, was it you who did it when they returned to Qin's house? Don't worry, I won't pursue it, I just want to Get this straight.”

Qin Xiang shook his head decisively: "It's not me."

Qin Xiongfei looked at Qin Xiang speechlessly and sighed: "That's all, it's boring to talk about this. I called you to come, and there is one more thing. I have a box here. Take it. There are 2000 taels of silver notes in it, which is the dowry given to you by your father. ."

Seeing Qin Xiang shaking her head to refuse, he quickly raised his hand to stop her, and said: "In addition, there is a letter in it about your mother's life experience. Although she didn't find out much, it's good that you know it."

Qin Xiang was stunned and almost stood up excitedly. Fortunately, Xiao Chenyu's hand on her shoulder held her down hard.

After taking a deep breath and suppressing her uneasiness, Qin Xi asked as calmly as possible: "What status can my mother have that is worthy of my father's troubles?"

Yes, he had never mentioned it to Su Shi, but he specifically called out Qin Xiang at this time, so Qin Xiang asked this question.

"I have only found out a little bit about this matter, and I don't know if it is true or not. I didn't tell your mother before, or even anyone else, because I didn't want you to worry about it."

It has to be said that Qin Xiongfei's words made Qin Xiang slightly moved.

Xiao Chenyu took two steps forward and took out the small box placed next to Qin Xiongfei's pillow, but did not hand it to Qin Xiang immediately.

Qin Xiang looked at Qin Xiongfei for a long time before speaking again: "I'm going back tomorrow. I don't know when the next time I'll come see you is? Do you have anything to say?"

"I originally wanted to ask you to take care of your aunt and the Qin family, but you didn't want to, so, forget it, let's go!"

When Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu came out, they saw Qin Yao still standing at the door of the house, obviously waiting for her.

"My mother wants to see you!" Qin Yao glanced at Xiao Chenyu beside her, and added: "She only wants to see Qin Xiang."

"She is tired. Pregnant people cannot be tired, so we have to leave first." Xiao Chenyu immediately refused, joking, Qin Xiongfei is Qin Xiong's biological father, and he is not worried about her being left alone, let alone the fourth wife?Qin Yao had a stalemate with the two and had to compromise, taking them to see the fourth wife and telling them that Qin Shao and Sun Donghai had gone to see Qin Shao's mother.

The fourth house suffered a great blow, and the servants I saw on the road were very cautious in doing things, for fear of getting into trouble with my wife.

On this day, Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu were like spinning tops, being taken from here to there, and then went to another place to meet different people.

The fourth wife was sitting in the place where she usually handles housework. When she saw Qin Yao coming in with someone, she didn't even look at Qin Xiang and his wife. Qin Yao arranged for them to sit down, and she also sat on the other side.

The maids came up to serve tea and then filed out. The old lady beside the wife did not leave. She seemed to be a highly valued person.

After drinking tea, the fourth wife glanced at Qin Xiang's belly and said, "When are you born?"

"Around the end of the year, what did your wife mean when you ask me, do you want to give me a big gift?" Qin Xi said with a mocking tone.

"I dare to give it, but I'm afraid you don't dare to ask for it." Mrs. Qin Si glanced at the small box in Xiao Chenyu's hand again, and sneered: "Your father loves you after all. He didn't give anything to anyone, but he gave It’s really heartbreaking to kill you!”

"Madam, there's no point in talking about this. It's better to explain your purpose of coming as soon as possible. I think my wife is not in a good mood when she sees me, and so am I."

The calm expression on Mrs. Qin Si's face was a little unbearable, and she glared at Qin Xiang fiercely: "That person at the birthday banquet, you are the one who brought back your father's children who were away from home, right?"

"My father also asked me just now, and I answered 'no'. Now I will give this answer to my wife intact."

"Huh, no matter who this person is, your father's life will be counted on this person." Mrs. Qin Si snorted coldly, with a fierce look in her eyes.

"So what?" Qin Xiang was not afraid: "Even if it's not me, my wife will still blame me. Even if nothing happens to my father, will my wife let us mother and daughter go?"

"It's not your fault. You brought them into the house and we became a joke in Dancheng. Our four bedrooms were also in a mess every day. In the end, your father was poisoned." Mrs. Qin Si showed no hatred at all. Covering up, he roared at Qin Xiang: "Can your mother and daughter's lives be compared with your father's? If you hadn't insisted on going your own way and not listening to your father's words, insisting on making your own decision to marry, would you have been able to do what you are doing now?"

"My wife means that I should just marry the man you arranged, and I should accept my fate. Yes, in your eyes, my life is worthless, but in the eyes of my mother, I am also a treasure. In her eyes, my life is more important than any of you." A somewhat excited Qin Xiang took a breath and said, "In my eyes, my mother's life is much more important than yours."

Then, she stood up, raised her chin slightly, and said coldly: "Don't think I don't know that you instigated the old nun to lure my mother to commit suicide. I think you are actually planning to make my mother commit suicide first. , and then spread rumors to the outside world that I was unfilial and forced my own mother to death. By then, I will not be a fish on the chopping board and can be slaughtered by you. "

Mrs. Qin Si did not refute, she just looked at Qin Xiang fiercely.

Qin Xiang added: "My mother was also sold to him. She worked as a concubine for more than ten years and was given a deed of betrayal. She never dared to raise her head and behave as a human being. My father is sorry for you. You should hate your father. Yes, instead of using us to benefit themselves and hating us at the same time.”

Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu left. Qin Yao looked at her mother without moving, with particularly complicated eyes.

Mrs. Qin Si was not a good person to Qin Xiang and others, but to her children, she was a loving mother.

"Mom, I agree to marry to my aunt's house in Beijing." Qin Yao finally agreed. She felt that it was time for her to share the worries for her mother: "After I get married, you can also go to live in the capital. My brother is also in the capital, and the Qin family is also here. There’s nothing to miss.”

The eldest uncle had specially sent someone to say that he was not allowed to offend or harm Qin Xiang and his wife. It was obvious that in the eyes of the Qin family, they were not as important as Qin Xiang.
