Marrying into a poor family

On the other hand, incense sticks are not as rare as fragrant dews. Although the production process is very complicated and the spices are expensive and numerous, basically only palace craftsmen can make them, and few outsiders can make them.But after all, it is not that difficult to obtain incense ingots, so Qin Xiang initially chose to use fragrant dew to trade with Qin Xiongfei instead of incense ingots.

The main reason is that Xianglu cannot be one family. The family that developed Xianglu's method can be considered a small aristocratic family, but what happened in the end?Not only was it divided up by others, Qin Xiang was also one of them.

Therefore, Qin Xiang gave the fragrant dew to Qin Xiongfei and sold it, firstly, to make a fortune, and secondly, to prevent the Qin family from becoming dominant.The four major families own Xianglu together, so they can definitely protect it better.

Qin Xiongfei originally thought that with his unique method of making fragrant dew, the Qin family could soar into the sky. But now, all four families have this method, and it has once again become a situation of four-legged confrontation. Who can get the right to supply the palace? It's going to take some "fighting".

So, Qin Xian changed her expression to a stubborn and aggrieved one, and said, "Father's words don't mean what he says. Daughters don't dare to count on their father."

Qin Xiongfei heard something in his words, frowned and asked, "Why did you say that?"

Qin Xiang stared into Qin Xiongfei's eyes and said slowly: "Did my father agree to let my mother go that day?"

Seeing Qin Xiongfei nodding, Qin Xiang continued: "Then why did my father instigate that old nun to deceive my mother and make her seek death?"

Afterwards, he made a lie about what the old nun wanted Su to know about himself by borrowing fortune-telling charts. As for the old nun's death, he did not say anything about it. He only said that he sent someone to look for him the next day and found that the house was empty.

Qin Xiongfei was shocked when he heard this, but it was indeed not his fault. Qin Xiongfei did have the intention to kill the Su family, but he had not yet found the time to do so. Besides, if he wanted to do it, he would only send people to do it directly, so why bother to create many conspiracies in one fell swoop? trick?

But the next moment he guessed who wanted Su's life?No need to think carefully to guess that it was Mrs. Qin Si.

He knows the tricks of Mrs. Qin Si best. She never tells the truth on the surface. In fact, if she doesn't like it, she can always make people unable to survive or die in private.

Moreover, what Mrs. Qinsi is best at is manipulating people's hearts to achieve her own goals. In her words: "Anything that is useful should be put to its fullest use."

Therefore, the reason Mrs. Qin Si went to such great lengths to kill Su was probably not to vent her anger on Qin Xiongfei, but for some other reason.

Thinking of this, he looked at Qin Xiang, his heart moved, and something suddenly became clear.

Mrs. Qin Si’s goal is Qin Xiang.

Qin Xiang not only disobeyed Qin Xiongfei's orders this time, but also slapped Mrs. Qin Si's face on her. What if the daughters raised outside the country in the future would follow this example and escape from control?

Therefore, Qin Xiang must drink the fine wine.

The Su family committed suicide, and Qin Xiang could not escape the charge of unfilial piety no matter what. She had to adhere to the Qin family obediently, otherwise, the crime of forcing her mother to death would make Qin Xiang die hundreds of times.Even if Qin Xiang is tough and does not surrender to the Qin family, she is basically ruined and will have to live with guilt for the rest of her life. After all, her mother did die for her.

The so-called killing and punishing the heart is nothing more than that.

However, now it seems that Qin Xiang has known about this matter, and the old nun has escaped. In other words, Mrs. Qin's plan was wrong.

Now that Qin Xiang had settled this debt on his own head, Qin Xiongfei naturally refused to admit it. He explained impatiently that he was very busy recently and stopped mentioning the matter. For him, Su's life and death were not of any concern. , not as important as your own affairs at all.

"It's good that your mother is fine. I came to you today because I want to take you back to the Qin family to meet the elders of the Qin family, and by the way, I can complete your genealogy. From now on, you will be the upright daughter of the Qin family. If it is Xiao Chenyu, If this kid one day becomes famous, he won't treat you well, and you also have strong support from your mother's family, so you have nothing to fear."

But these "sincere words" sounded like nonsense to Qin Xiang's ears.It's really funny. Now he still wants to use the fact that he is in the Qin family tree to induce Qin Xi to compromise. He really doesn't even want to think of a fresher excuse.

"Father, I have entered the genealogy of my husband's family. From now on, I will be born as a member of the Xiao family and die as the soul of the Xiao family. I don't need to worry about my father."

Qin Xiang said it politely, but in fact there was no room for change.

Qin Xiongfei looked at her for a long time and suddenly said: "You hate me?"

"." Qin Xi responded with silence.

"Because you hate me, you went to cooperate with the Lu Family Incense Shop." Qin Xiongfei's voice slowly began to get louder, and he spoke faster and faster: "So, you sold the fragrant dew recipe to the other three family?"

Qin Xiang blinked her eyes and thought to herself, it is indeed here.

With her mind spinning, Qin Xi suppressed her initial panic, because at this time she already knew that Xianglu Fangzi herself had not revealed her secret.

Therefore, she frowned and asked, "Father, what do you mean by this? Please tell me clearly."

Qin Xiongfei stared at Qin Xiang suspiciously, and after a long time he took a breath and asked: "Another family in Fucheng who started making incense also bought a fragrant dew recipe. I thought it was you who made it."

"My father has wronged his daughter. How do I know people from those aristocratic families? Besides, since I gave it to my father, it was an agreement. As long as my father doesn't cause trouble and destroy the agreement, I will naturally not go back on my word and harm my father behind his back. Even though I do have some resentment towards my father, my surname is Qin after all, so how can I do anything to harm my father?"

The anger in Qin Xiongfei's heart subsided a little, and he said calmly: "How can you get ahead by following Lu Jiu? Since you also know that your surname is Qin, then pack up and follow me to Fucheng, and don't live here anymore, so as not to have any trouble with you in the future. The Lu family can’t escape its involvement.”

The brocade handkerchief in Qin Xiang's hand suddenly tightened. Was he trying to force her to return to the Qin family?

But how could Qin Xiang be willing to go to the Qin family now? She was just a fledgling, and going now would be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

No, it’s not the time to go.

"Father, my husband is still studying. I can't go to Fucheng for the time being. Let's go back together when he becomes a scholar!"

Xiao Chenyu can only be used as a shield. Qin Xiang is a married woman, so of course her husband's family should be the main one, which makes sense.

Qin Xiongfei came up with another idea: "Let Xiao Chenyu go to Fucheng to study. I will make arrangements and find a good husband for him. Only then will the future be better."

Qin Xiang shook her head and expressed her rejection with silence.

Qin Xiongfei said coldly: "Since you can't get enough food and salt, then I'll just have someone take you away. As for your husband-in-law, it doesn't matter whether you want him or not!"

"Is father coming to rob someone? What if I would rather die than surrender?" Qin Xi stood up and looked at Qin Xiongfei coldly: "Father is very capable, but this is Qijiang County. I think father must have some scruples. "

What Qin Xiongfei wants is not Qin Xiang, but what is in Qin Xiong's hands. If she really chooses to die rather than surrender, what's the point?
Just at the moment of the stalemate, Lu Jiu walked in with a slightly frivolous step, waving his folding fan: "Hey, are there guests?"
