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

Qin Shu personally brought a cup of tea to Nanny Chun and handed it to her.

Nanny Chun wiped the tears from her eyes, took a sip of tea, and then said, "Before going to Cheng's house, the clan leader asked someone to go back to the clan to get the dowry book. When we went to Cheng's house to get the dowry, we compared it with the book before ordering people to load it into the car."

"Oh, you didn't see it. There were more people watching outside Cheng's house than those watching the excitement at the South City Gate during the day."

The masters of the Cheng Mansion felt so humiliated that none of them came out to show up.

She let the maids in the mansion carry the dowry one by one to the outside of the mansion.

Nanny Chun laughed again and said, "The clan leader is also an interesting person. Every time he brings out a dowry, he asks people to call out its name loudly."

So, the three horse-drawn carriages that Qin Baoyi had transported the dowry to the Cheng Mansion were all transported back.

Nanny Chun said with emotion: "When the young lady gave the dowry book to the clan for safekeeping, I was surprised. It turns out that the young lady's intention was here."

Qin Shu smiled and thought: Of course there is more than one intention. But no matter what it is, as long as the goal is achieved, it's fine.

When she faked her dowry, she was actually prepared to not be able to return home.

Whether it is the fake jewelry entering the house or the returned dowry, this "good marriage" that Qin Baoyi has fought so hard for will eventually become a nightmare that she will never be able to get rid of in her life!

Nanny Chun pushed the gold-painted box next to her towards Qin Shu and said, "There are only 150,000 taels of silver in here. Madam Cheng quietly called me in and told me about the temporary embezzlement of the silver."

"I followed the young lady's instructions and asked Madam Cheng to write an IOU and sign the pledge."

Once the marriage and dowry were cancelled, the relationship between Qin Shu and the Cheng family was completely ruined.

If the Cheng family can maintain superficial peace and decency, then everyone will be fine.

If the Cheng family wanted to make things difficult for Qin Shu, this IOU for 150,000 taels of silver would be enough to make them anxious.

but……

Qin Shu quietly twisted her fingers: You should know that the 150,000 taels of silver notes are all fake, and were sent to the capital by Cheng Mao to build relationships.

Most of the people who received the gifts were respectable people, and it was absolutely impossible for them to just turn against each other and accuse Cheng Mao of giving them fake banknotes.

But I'm afraid that Cheng Mao cannot bear this kind of private means.

The Cheng family had been treacherous before, and they wanted to surrender to Prince Ning through Qin Jingchang, and they also wanted to use Qin Shu's dowry to pave the way for themselves.

He wants to take advantage of everything. With such a big appetite, if he accidentally eats himself to death, who can he blame?

Just as Nanny Chun finished her words, she heard a burst of wailing coming from the West Mansion.

Several people quickly shut up and listened to the movement in the west with held their breath.

Liu Yinghua's cries and screams were particularly loud, and it seemed that the voices of officers and soldiers shouting could be heard faintly.

Not long after, Li Youlin returned to the front yard with a look of disbelief on his face.

Qin Shu looked at him, her heart moved, and asked, "Brother, what happened over there?"

Li Youlin said, "It was Young Master Qin. Qin Anning committed murder in the street and fled because of fear of punishment."

what? !

Aunt Chun was startled. After hearing this, she clasped her hands together and muttered to herself, "What a sin! It's New Year's Day. Amitabha, Amitabha!"

Aunt Liu asked quickly, "Didn't you hear who was killed?"

"It is said that there is an old maid in the mansion."

Qin Shu thought for a moment and said, "Could it be Aunt Qi?"

Xiao Cheng turned around and ran out, "I'll go ask around."

Before Qin Shu could say anything, the man had already run away.

Li Youlin looked at his back and shook his head helplessly.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Xiao Cheng came back again and said without waiting for them to sit down, "It was a maid named Qi. She said she was a servant of Madam Qin Er. When she stole money from the mansion and tried to escape, she was caught by Qin An Ning and beaten to death with a stick."

Qin Shu couldn't believe it and asked, "Madame Qi would steal things?"

What Qin Jingchang did was made public at the South City Gate, and his reputation was completely ruined.

After he was taken away by the government office, the onlookers blocked Qin An Ning's three brothers and Liu Yinghua in the mansion and prevented them from leaving.

The three sons were at home, and their property was stolen.

This means that the thief who stole the things must be someone who can enter and exit the main courtyard and is trusted by the mistress.

Liu Yinghua was a mean person and treated the servants in her mansion very badly.

Anyone in the entire mansion, including Qin Jingchang's two concubines, might take advantage of the situation to rob the West Mansion, except Madam Qi!

It can be said that in the West Mansion, Madam Qi is a rare old servant who is loyal to Liu Yinghua.

Will she steal?

Qin Shu asked, "Have the stolen property been found?"

Xiao Cheng leaned back in his chair and shook his head, "I haven't heard of that."

Qin Shu didn't care either.

She turned her gaze to Xiao Cheng, "Mr. Xiao, it's getting late, you should go back home."

In front of the South City Gate, Nanny Yu stopped Xiao Cheng several times to speak for Qin Shu, and Qin Shu had noticed it.

The Xiao family has a respected status and noble identity, so they would definitely not allow Xiao Cheng and Qin Shu to have too close a relationship.

Even if they wanted to take a concubine, the Xiao family would not let Xiao Cheng marry a merchant girl like Qin Shu whose parents had both passed away.

Madam Xiao was kind enough to ask Nanny Yu to stay and testify for Qin Shu, which was a rare kindness of hers. Qin Shu was very grateful for this.

Since you have accepted someone else's love, you must abide by the boundaries that others have drawn for her.

Xiao Cheng loves to play, but she can't accompany him in his fun.

Being ordered to leave, Xiao Cheng's eyes flashed with loneliness, but he soon smiled again and said with a playful smile: "You must remember that you still owe me a favor, remember to pay it back later!"

Qin Shu smiled and said, "Let Brother Youlin treat Young Master Xiao to a drink at Tianzhenlou tomorrow."

"He is he, and you are you." Xiao Cheng said with a veiled look, "I'll write it down first, and I'll tell you when I remember what I want."

After Xiao Cheng finished speaking, he clenched his fist and gently punched Li Youlin's chest, then raised his eyebrows at him and said, "Let's go. Remember to find me if you have anything fun."

Li Youlin smiled and nodded.

Qin Shu suddenly said, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Xiao, please stay for now."

She selected some bracelets, pearl flowers and a few calligraphy and paintings from the returned dowry. When no one was paying attention, she exchanged the fake items in her hand with the real items in the space and brought them back to the main room.

She then took out from her sleeve pocket a "calming talisman" that she had bought in advance from the space, and several boxes of rouge made with spiritual spring water, and put them together with the jewelry, calligraphy and paintings.

Then he said to Xiao Cheng, "During this period, I am grateful to Madam Xiao for taking care of me, and today I am grateful to Madam Yu for testifying for me. Qin Shu is in deep mourning, so it is inconvenient for her to come to thank you in person."

"Please take these back to the mansion, Mr. Xiao. Give these jewels to the young ladies in the mansion to wear for fun. Please don't despise them."

"I heard that Uncle Xiao loves calligraphy and paintings. It would be a waste to leave these here. If Uncle Xiao likes them, please find a good place for them."

"This talisman was originally obtained by my father from a great master when he went to Nanzhao. I have noticed that Madam Xiao always has trouble sleeping at night. Hanging this talisman beside her bed will have a miraculous effect in calming her mind and spirit."

"These rouges are what I tried to make when I was free in the temple. I have used them myself and the effect is not bad. I gave them to several ladies in the mansion. If they feel good after using them, Master Xiao, just tell me and I will make them again."

Xiao Cheng deliberately frowned and pretended to be unhappy and said, "It was obviously me who helped you, but you gave gifts to everyone, but you refused to give me one?"

Qin Shu couldn't help but smile and said, "Didn't Master Xiao say that you should remember it first? In the future, if Master Xiao remembers what gift you want, just tell me."

Xiao Cheng's Adam's apple moved slightly. He looked at Qin Shu deeply and swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

After all, they weren't familiar enough to joke around.

If you say something presumptuously, it will not only be rude to Miss Qin, but also seem like you are being too polite.

He smiled and said, "Okay, then you have to remember this and don't deny your debt when the time comes."

Qin Shu chuckled, "Absolutely not!"

After Xiao Cheng left, Qin Shu said to Li Youlin, "Brother, I'll have to trouble you to go to Shopkeeper Zhong tomorrow."

It’s time to close some networks!
