Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 8
Xiao Chenyu waved Xiao Hanyang's hand away and asked Qin Ran to get in the car first to prevent her from becoming a joke to everyone.

Qin Xiang turned around and got on the carriage without looking at Xiao Hanyang.

When Qin Xiang lowered the curtain of the carriage, she pushed Xiao Hanyang onto the carriage frame, approached and asked in a low voice: "Don't you know why she married me in a hurry? If you really don't know, then go back and ask your mother?" "

Xiao Hanyang's eyes were red. He wanted to get rid of Xiao Chenyu's force and shouted loudly: "Don't drag my mother into this. I know it was your intention."

"Did I do it on purpose? Ha, then just assume I did it on purpose. But don't you think about it, why did Miss Qin, who never goes out, just go out on the day your family went to propose marriage? She is not an unstable person. , why did she fall into the water?"

Xiao Hanyang's mind woke up from his anger, and his eyes gradually became clearer. He stared blankly at his taller uncle, as if he didn't believe it, but also didn't dare to think about it.

Seeing Xiao Hanyang clenching his teeth but his lower lip trembling slightly, Xiao Chenyu sneered in a low voice: "Eldest nephew, your mother protects you so well, but think about it, except for people close to her, who in this town recognizes her? But it was only two days after the incident, and everyone in the town knew that the Qin girl fell into the water, and everyone saw it in public, and I had never touched her at all, but why are the rumors so bad?"

Xiao Hanyang's eyes slowly filled with tears. He had actually thought that his mother had done all this, but he refused to think so in his heart, so he came to the county to invite his classmates to the bookstore, but who knew that he met Qin Xiang followed Xiao Chenyu.

Knowing something is one thing, but actually seeing it is another feeling. So, Xiao Hanyang, who was overwhelmed by anger and jealousy, hurried outside the city and caught the person.

"If you are unwilling, go back and ask what your evil-minded good mother has done?" Xiao Chenyu saw that Xiao Hanyang was a little broken, but he had no sympathy at all. After saying that, he got on the carriage and asked the carriage driver to leave quickly. , leaving Xiao Hanyang standing alone, being watched and pointed at by people.

Xiao Chenyu got on the carriage, Qin Xi smiled at him and said, "Thank you!"

"Don't be so polite."

No one said thank you, no one asked, it was as if they knew what the other meant by tacit understanding.

The carriage shook a little, and the two of them were silent.

After a long time, Qin Xiang raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Chenyu, and suddenly asked: "Do you know all those things?"

Xiao Chenyu understood that she was referring to the things behind the fall into the water, and smiled: "I don't know, but I know my sister-in-law, so it's not difficult to guess."

"You" Qin Xi paused, then asked: "Why did you agree to marry me?"

"What if I said I was here for your shop and house, would you believe it?" Xiao Chenyu said with a smile, leaning against the car wall.

Qin Xiang shook her head. She somewhat understood Xiao Chenyu's temperament, which was easy-going, free and easy, with a bit of arrogance hidden in his bones. Moreover, he was not someone who calculated women's money. Besides, it seemed that it would not be difficult for him to make money in the past two days.

"Do you believe me so much?" Xiao Chenyu asked with interest.

"It's not certain whether those things are mine, and it's useless for you to try." Qin Xi said, "Besides, I have a gut feeling that you are not such a person."

Xiao Chenyu laughed and said happily: "We are destined by fate. Don't think so much. Let's live a good life from now on."

Then, Xiao Chenyu said again: "I will probably be very busy in the next few days, so I won't be able to see you. I'll put your second uncle's things aside first, and I'll accompany you to solve it when I'm free."

Qin Xiang nodded slightly, and the phrase "fate is destined" circled twice in her mind, and shook her head and threw it away.

After sending Qin Xiang back, Xiao Chenyu also went in to meet Su and left in a hurry.

There were many people in the family, including Lian'er. The ten-year-old girl looked at Qin Xiang timidly, saluted awkwardly, and called her "girl" in a Nuonuo voice.Qin Xi patted her hair and said, "Lian'er, follow your aunt. I'll call you if I need anything."

Lian'er watched Qin Xiang go to the backyard, staring at her back without blinking. Aunt Sang asked, "What are you looking at? You haven't come to help me pick vegetables."

Lian'er walked over and knelt down to pick vegetables. She raised her little face and asked, "That's the girl my aunt mentioned. She's so beautiful, just like a fairy daughter."

Aunt Sang laughed and said in a low voice: "You work hard here, and you can learn a little bit about the girl in the future, which will be enough for you. Unfortunately, you are too young, and the girl is not willing to let you serve her closely."

Lian'er didn't quite understand this yet, but her mother said she would listen to whatever her aunt said, so she nodded vigorously and promised: "Lian'er will grow up soon, and I will take care of the girl when the time comes."

Qin Xiang saw her mother Su in the backyard. Su was cleaning the tables and chairs carefully. When her daughter came back, she asked how the things were selling.

Qin Xiang gave half of the silver to her mother and kept half for herself.

"Mom, please accompany me to my second uncle's house this afternoon!"

Su Shi paused and asked, "Why are you going to his house?"

"I still have some bath beans here that I want to give to my second aunt." Qin Xi pointed to the remaining bath beans in the jar.

"Are you asking for money?" Ms. Su frowned and said, "I'll leave this matter to my mother. I'll go to the teahouse to talk to your second uncle in the afternoon. You already scared him that day. I'll definitely go to him this time." It’s a lot easier.”

"Mom, my second uncle won't take the hard way. I went to Lu Da as a last resort. I just had to do it as a last resort. I went to my second uncle's house to have a look. This is called knowing yourself and your enemy."

How could Mrs. Su resist her daughter, so after lunch break in the afternoon, mother and daughter went out carrying bath beans and a bag of cakes.

During the first month of the year, people will laugh at you if you don't carry something in your hand. So, whether you like it or not, you still have to take a bag of pastries, but it's just a worthless thing.

Su Laoer's home in the town is not far behind the tea house. It is a small house with one entrance.

Su Laoer was originally an unlearned country boy, but later he took over his niece's shop and opened a teahouse. The business was quite good, and he honestly paid the rent at first, although the rent was already [-]% less than others.

However, since Qin Xiongfei stopped coming to Fushui Town, Su Laoer didn't take Su's mother and daughter seriously at all, and paid them not a cent for four or five years' rent.

Qin Xiang never paid attention to these common things before, and Su didn't force him even though he had savings in his hands. However, these days, he has been pressed harder.

Therefore, when Mrs. Su knocked on the door, her second aunt Huang almost slammed the door shut on the spot, but Qin Xiang stepped forward and said, "Second aunt, we are here to see you."

After saying that, she lifted up the things in her hands. The second aunt was not a smart person. With the gifts shaking, she opened the door and invited them in.

The yard is not big, and the clothes of adults and children are hung to dry against the wall.

Qin Xiang was a little surprised that her second uncle's family had clothes for babies, so she asked her mother in a low voice. Su whispered in Qin Xiang's ear: "Your second uncle took a concubine and gave birth to a girl last month. "

"Oh!" Qin Xiang felt a little funny. Just like Su Laoer, he also imitated the rich family to take concubines?
