If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter

Seeing how Uncle and Aunt couldn't wait to throw dirty water on Qin Shu, it seemed that the Cheng family had already revealed to Uncle that they wanted to marry Qin Shu.

Liu Baocai appeared in Qin Shu's yard last night, but they didn't necessarily have to force Liu Baocai to do anything to Qin Shu.

Perhaps, this beating from the Cao Gang boss was just what they wanted.

That one thousand taels of silver was exchanged for a beating.

Well worth it!

Before noon, Nanny Chun found Qin Shu with a pale face and whispered in her ear: "Miss, something happened."

Qin Shu lowered her head and threw paper money into the treasure bowl. The firelight reflected on her face, like a piece of white jade stained by the sunset.

She replied nonchalantly, "There are rumors out there that Liu Baocai broke into Miss Qin's room last night, and Miss Qin's innocence was insulted?"

Nanny Chun was stunned for a moment, and then tears welled up in her eyes, "Young lady knows everything? These damn people spread rumors without fear of getting their tongues rotted..."

Qin Shu gently patted Nanny Chun's hand.

He signaled her to be calm and calm.

The spread of this rumor today further proves that Liu Baocai’s appearance last night was a play directed and performed by Xifu himself.

It was similar to what happened in his previous life when Liu Baocai broke into Qin Shu's toilet.

The purpose is to ruin Qin Shu's reputation.

If Qin Shu went to question Qin Jingchang, Qin Jingchang would have a reason to refute: Last night, Second Aunt didn't want to make a big deal out of Qin Shu's innocence.

Liu Weiran said that his brother went to ask for the blood jade bracelet in order to preserve Qin Shu's reputation.

It was Qin Shu herself who refused to give in and insisted on sending Liu Baocai to the authorities.

If it was Qin Shu from her previous life, she would have probably panicked by now.

But in this lifetime...

What is innocence?

Can you eat?

As gossipers spread the rumor, before nightfall, it had already spread: Qin Shu had long been in love with the eldest son of the Liu family, and that the two had already started an affair.

Because Qin Shu's parents had passed away, Liu Baocai was worried about Qin Shu and went to Qin's house to visit her late at night.

However, he was beaten up by the people left behind by the leader of the Cao Gang, as if he were a thief.

Qin Shu was embarrassed to meet her lover at night, and could not come forward to plead for him, so she had to let her second uncle send her nephew to the government office.

Nanny Liu and Nanny Chun looked at Qin Shu, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

But seeing that his young lady looked so relaxed and contented, he didn't know how to persuade her.

Rumors start with scheming people and flourish among fools.

But it may not stop at the wise.

Only when you are trapped by rumors will you be hurt by them.

The less she was affected by the rumors, the more uneasy those who spread them became.

Throughout the whole afternoon, Second Aunt Liu Yinghua kept appearing at the door of the mourning hall. She wanted to speak several times, but was changed by Qin Shu.

He was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks. Even the thick-skinned Qin Baoyi noticed that something was wrong.

She looked at her mother unhappily and said, "Mom, what's the matter with you coming and going?"

Liu Yinghua looked at Qin Shu.

Qin Shu lowered her eyes and continued to burn paper money for her parents without even looking at them.

Seeing that Qin Shu didn't respond, Liu Yinghua could only sigh deeply, pretend to be worried, stomped her feet hard, and walked out.

Qin Baoyi asked curiously, "What happened to my mother?"

Qin Shu shook her head expressionlessly, "I don't know."

After dinner, Liu Yinghua hurried towards Qin Shu again.

Without waiting for her to come closer, Qin Shu raised her hand to cover her mouth, pretended to yawn, and held Xiao Xing's hand and went back to the yard.

The funeral was held the next day.

Qin Shu asked Nanny Chun to select dozens of jewelry that her mother often wore when she was alive, and put her father's favorite sandalwood abacus and collection of pens, ink, paper and inkstone into her parents' coffins under the heartbroken gaze of her second uncle and second aunt.

As well as their commonly used teacups and porcelain, their commonly worn clothes, their fashionable silk fabrics...

They picked some out as burial objects.

There are also the rouge and snacks that my mother likes;

The jade toys that Dad often played with, the sword that he often wore around his waist...

That day, Qin Shu fainted from crying several times.

On the way to the funeral, it was Nanny Liu and Nanny Chun who dragged her with all their strength, following the coffin of her parents all the way out of the city.

As the sun disappeared into the horizon, the two coffins slowly fell into the tomb.

For the next month, the tablets of Qin Jingyuan and his wife Zuo will be placed in the mourning hall.

Qin Shu and Qin Antai burned incense, paper and kowtowed every morning and evening.

The tablet will be moved into the Qin Family Ancestral Hall one month later.

On the day after the funeral, the Cheng family sent a prestigious housekeeper.

The nanny’s surname is Yuan.

After arriving at the Qin Mansion, they burned incense at the spirit tablets of Qin Jingyuan and his wife.

After burning incense, Nanny Yuan held Qin Shu's hand and said some polite words about her condolences and asking her to take care.

Before leaving, she took a brocade box from the maid, took out a bracelet from it, and put it on Qin Shu's wrist.

After seeing off Nanny Yuan, Liu Yinghua turned around and called Qin Shu "niece".

Qin Shu immediately pressed her fingers on her temples and said weakly, "Second Aunt, please forgive my niece for being rude. My niece's head hurts so badly. I'll go back and lie down first, and come back to pay my respects to you later."

After saying that, without waiting for Liu Yinghua to speak, he took Xiao Xing's hand and went back to the yard.

Only after her figure left the small corner door did Liu Yinghua frown and spit in the direction Qin Shu left, saying, "You lowly creature!"

Qin Jingchang came out of the mourning hall, walked to Liu Yinghua, winked at her, and said, "Go back!"

Liu Yinghua looked delighted and quickly followed Qin Jingchang back to the West Mansion.

Qin Jingchang took the tea handed over by his concubine Bingqing, touched Bingqing's hand calmly, and said, "Okay, you go out first."

Bingqing knew that the master had something to say to the mistress, so she bowed obediently.

Before leaving, she gave him a look that both of them understood.

Liu Yinghua also dismissed the other maids serving in the room.

She leaned towards Qin Jingchang, frowning and said, "Master, that damned girl doesn't even give me a chance to speak..."

Qin Jingchang slowly opened the lid of his tea, took a sip of tea, and said, "Without my elder brother and sister-in-law, I am her direct descendant. I don't need her approval for the marriage with the Cheng family."

"Does the master really want to marry her to the Cheng family?"

Liu Yinghua was a little anxious and stretched her neck.

Qin Jingchang glanced at his old wife and said disdainfully: "Even if she wants to marry, does the Cheng family still want to marry her now? Otherwise..."

He lowered his voice and said, "If it weren't for the valuable dowry, I'm afraid the marriage cancellation letter would have arrived at the mansion by now."

Liu Yinghua couldn't help but smile, "Master is really smart. That damn girl is like a dumb person eating coptis this time, she can't say anything about her suffering."

As she spoke, she frowned again, "But judging from the Cheng family's attitude, this marriage will still be finalized."

Qin Jingchang snorted disdainfully, shook his sleeves complacently, and said, "You go and prepare a gift. I'll go to Lord Cheng's house."

Liu Yinghua's eyes lit up, "Master is going?"

Qin Jingchang glanced outward, "Isn't Baocai still locked up in the government office?"

Liu Yinghua suddenly realized, gave a thumbs up, and praised sincerely: "Master, this plan really kills three birds with one stone!"

No wonder the master let Baocai climb over the wall even though he knew that there were people from the Cao Gang living in that dead girl's yard.

Qin Jingchang was pleased, "Go!"
