Marrying into a poor family

After Sun Jifei gave Uncle Qi the medicine, he sighed and said, "After all, you are not her biological father, and she can only treat you like this. If he were her biological father, wouldn't he let him take risks like this?"

Uncle Qi smiled and said: "If that Qin Xiong comes, Qin Xiang is afraid that he will kill him, so naturally she will not ask him for help."

Sun Jifei didn't expect Uncle Qi to be so devoted to Qin Xiang, so he stopped talking. Talking too much seemed to be sowing discord.

"Don't take it to heart when I say this, I don't mean anything else." Sun Jifei explained casually, feeling a little irritated in his heart. However, after all, a man of several decades still has some wealth. I can always suppress some annoyances and real thoughts.

Uncle Qi understands Sun Jifei's thoughts very well. People like them will not show their sincerity and trust to others casually. It is very difficult for them to be kind to someone, unless there are interests involved.

Originally, Sun Jifei wanted to ask Uncle Qi if there was anything he needed to do, but Uncle Qi said he was sleepy and wanted to rest, so the two couldn't continue talking. Sun Jifei was sleeping in the bed next door, so the two turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Uncle Qi didn't ask why he came here, nor did he ask what he had done in the past ten years? What have you been through?

In short, if they live together, he can still be more or less vigilant.

The next day, Qin Xiang and Uncle Qi had breakfast together. After they finished eating, they talked about what happened last night.

Of course, Uncle Qi didn't say anything about the injury, but he also said something strange.

"Eunuch Zhao must have brought people to protect him when he came here. There is no doubt about this. But these people should be from the palace, or should be protected by guards sent by the palace."

Uncle Qi was thinking as he spoke. He had been thinking about it for a long time last night and couldn't figure it out: "But after I posted the blood letter last night, I went into the county government office out of curiosity to find out."

Qin Xiang frowned: "Uncle Qi, there must be a lot of guards from the county government. Are you okay?"

"Don't worry, what can happen to me?" Uncle Qi revealed the matter with a smile.

He added: "As soon as I entered the back house of the county government office, a man in black spotted me. I quickly turned around and left the county government office, but the man caught up with me very quickly."

Then, the two started a fight, and here's the strange thing: "He didn't seem to want to be discovered, so although we were fighting, we tried not to make any louder noises."

Qin Xiang's heart was beating a little fiercely, and she quickly asked: "Uncle Qi, do you think this person is the person called Sphenoid?"

Uncle Qi frowned and continued to think, and after a long time he said: "I thought about it last night, but I can't confirm it yet."

"This county government is a bit strange. I always feel that there is someone behind our county magistrate and he is doing something shady." Qin Xiang blurted out, not to test Uncle Qi, but because of the copied account book in her hand. .

From this point of view, Li County Prime Minister at that time was also doing things for some people above him, but he was abandoned for some reasons. The new county magistrate just replaced him.

However, what Qin Xi couldn't figure out was what was the reason for the fire in Fushui Town at that time? And who is the dead person?

But Qin Xiang was not in a hurry, she was like a cat lurking in the dark night, quietly patiently looking for what she wanted.

What's interesting is that Qin Xiang's second aunt Huang is here.

Qin Xiang happened to be free, so she met her second aunt.

Mr. Huang was sitting in the flower hall, and Qin Xi was sitting opposite. They each had a bowl of bird's nest in front of them.

Huang was a little cautious, but now she no longer felt any dissatisfaction or arrogance towards Qin Xiang. "Qin Xiang, I'm coming today."

Before Huang could finish speaking, Qin Xi motioned for her to eat first, and then ate elegantly again.

Huang couldn't help it. He lowered his head and picked up the delicate spoon. He ate the bird's nest in the fist-sized porcelain bowl in two bites, but didn't find anything particularly delicious.

After Qin Xiang slowly finished eating, the maids brought some water for mouthwash, wiped her mouth and hands, and even gave her hand cream to wipe her hands. Qin Xiang then looked at Mrs. Huang and said, "Auntie is here, but... Is there something wrong?"

"I also heard about you in Fushui Town, and they said that you were going to sell your property to pay tribute." Mrs. Huang said, putting the baggage beside her on the table, and it made a sound. It seems that the baggage inside Lots of stuff.

"Here are one hundred taels of silver. I rounded up the sum and left a few dozen taels to live on." Huang pushed the silver forward.

Qin Xiang did not go to pick her up, but looked at Huang with confusion and some vigilance: "Second aunt, what do you mean?"

"Well, our family used to be poor country people. If we hadn't relied on you mother and daughter for so many years, how could we have had such a good life. Now that we are like this, we deserve it, haha!"

It's actually hard to admit this, and it's even harder to say it yourself.

After saying that, Mrs. Huang gave a wry smile and looked at Qin Xiang with an unprecedented calm look in her eyes: "We are going to move back to the countryside. When we go home, we will plant our own land and vegetables. It won't cost much money, it will be enough to live on."

"Don't you still have two children to raise at home?" Qin Xiang was still doubting whether Mrs. Huang would be willing to hand over such a large sum of money?

"I have figured it out. I will raise my eldest daughter, and the second child born to Tao Niang will be given to Su Qiang. It is his seed anyway. As for Tao Niang, I am going to let her go. Whether she lives or dies in the future has nothing to do with us. "

With the remaining money, she bought an old man and his wife, one to help take care of the paralyzed Su Laoer, and the other to help tend the fields. After all, Huang is not young, and he has not done much farm work for so many years. It may be difficult for him to be alone.

"After your second uncle's accident, I went from panic to anger when I discovered Tao Niang and Su Qiang's scandal, to excitement when I got the money. I dare not think back on this period of time."

For someone who had never been in charge, she was suddenly pushed to the front to dominate so many things. You can imagine how flustered she was.

Now that the matter is finally over, Huang is also disheartened and unwilling to grab anything.

I also heard that Qin Xiang had encountered an obstacle that she couldn't overcome. After thinking about it for several days and nights, Huang decided to pay back what she owed Qin Xiang's family over the years, and that's how the scene before her happened.

Qin Xiang looked at the haggard and thinner Mr. Huang and suddenly smiled: "Aunt, if you had said such things to my mother earlier, she would have been extremely grateful and would have been very kind to you."

Mrs. Huang pursed her lips and lowered her head in shame. After a long time, she raised her head and said with red eyes, "Human, if your eyes are blinded by gold and silver, you won't know how to be a human being."

Unexpectedly, Huang, a woman with no knowledge at all, could actually say such profound words. Qin Xiang only sighed in her heart: People, every experience makes them wise!

Qin Xiang finally accepted the money. After all, she told the outside world that her family had no money.

However, she sent someone to send Huang back and packed some New Year's goods for her, all of which were food.

Since then, Qin Xiang and the Su family have been completely disconnected.
