Xie Liuzheng looked at Lu Zeming and smiled, then took out a few silver bills and motioned the servant to pass them to him.

?

When Lu Zeming saw the number on the banknote, his eyes lit up. This young lady was much more generous than Qin Guangjin. She casually gave him one thousand taels. His choice was indeed right.

?

But Xie Liuzheng slowly said, "Mother was deceived by the adulterous couple. Losing money is a small matter, but how can she get back her precious youth? If she is criticized by the world for divorcing the adulterer, it will be unbearable..."

?

Lu Zeming understood immediately, and while putting the banknote into his pocket, he promised solemnly, "Adulterers and adulterers shall be punished by everyone, but please rest assured, Miss, although I don't have the courage to enforce justice, I am obliged to speak up for Madam and Miss."

?

Xie Liuzheng smiled, and asked the servant to hand Lu Zeming a few silver notes again, and said meaningfully, "If everyone in the world is as enthusiastic as Mr. Lu, how can there be any injustice? But enthusiasm sometimes leads to misunderstanding and revenge. Mr. Lu, take this money and leave Yangzhou, otherwise you may be harmed by Qin Guangjin one day."

?

Lu Zeming didn't understand what Xie Liuzheng meant for a moment. Could it be that the Xie family had too much money to spend and gave gifts to everyone they met? He wanted to ask but before he could ask, he was half-pushed and half-dragged out of the door by the servants.

?

He could see that although Xie Liuzheng was young and as delicate as a flower, her character was as ruthless as Xie Xiangyu's, and she would never give him money for no reason.

?

Lu Zeming didn't want to understand Xie Liuzheng's intention of giving him the money, and he felt uneasy. If he misunderstood Xie Liuzheng's intention, the officials from his hometown might come to his house one day.

?

While thinking about this, he walked all the way back to his and Qin Wan's "home". When he reached the door, he heard Qin Wan's screaming and wailing in the yard.

?

"Oh my God! Life is unbearable!"

?

"My poor Shou'er's injury hasn't healed yet. Without the Xie family's money, where can we find the best medicinal herbs to nourish him?"

?

"If anything happens to Shou'er, I won't be able to live anymore!"

?

Lu Zeming was awakened by the crying and wailing, and immediately understood Xie Liuzheng's intention of giving him the silver.

?

Qin Guangjin was ruthless and would certainly use every possible means to retaliate against him. Knowing his background, he would most likely report him to the government for the crime of deceiving his wife and murdering her.

?

Even if he ran to the horizon, he would be caught by the government. Now he could only rely on the Xie family and Xie Liuzheng!

?

As long as Xie Liuzheng is willing to protect him, even if Qin Guangjin reports to the emperor, the Xie family will have a way to arrange things and leave him a way out.

?

Lu Zeming figured this out, plucked up his courage, and kicked the gate open.

?

This scared Qin Guangjin and Qin Wan in the yard.

?

Seeing clearly that the intruder was Lu Zeming, Qin Guangjin's face became terribly gloomy. He stared at him with resentful eyes, as if he wished he could burn a few holes in his body.

?

"You still have the nerve to come see me?!"

?

"Mr. Lu, I treated you well, but you ruined my plan. I will never forgive you!" As he said this, he was about to find something to beat Lu Zeming out.

?

It's definitely not okay to kill someone in broad daylight, but beating Lu Zeming up is okay.

?

But Lu Zeming laughed and walked into the yard with a swagger, one hand on his waist and the other pointing towards the door.

?

"Mr. Qin, I am too lazy to talk about those things that happened back then. You clearly have a wife and children, but you claimed that you were not married and married into the Xie family. This was a blatant marriage fraud. I just couldn't bear to see Mrs. Xie continue to be deceived by you two adulterers, so I told her the truth. What did I do wrong?"

?

The neighbors could hear any slight movement in the thin walls and courtyard, not to mention that Lu Zeming intentionally left the gate open and spoke in a loud and rough voice. I'm afraid that people in three alleys across could hear it clearly.

?

There were always crowds of onlookers in every dynasty. Almost in the blink of an eye, the door was crowded with neighbors who came to watch the fun. A few brave guys even leaned over the courtyard wall to look inside.

?

Under the watchful eyes of the public, Qin Guangjin would naturally not admit to the affair with Qin Wan. "Lu, please stop slandering me. Wan'er and I are innocent."

?

"Wan'er?!" Lu Zeming raised his eyebrows and looked at Qin Guangjin meaningfully, then asked in a long voice, "You called me by my wife's maiden name, and you told me that there is nothing between you two? Do you think that everyone in the world is stupid?"

?

Qin Guangjin's words slipped and he immediately fell into Lu Zeming's hands. His face became even uglier, and he made a dry defense, "I am Wan'er's cousin, a close relative. What's the big deal if I call you by my nickname occasionally?"

?

"Oh, cousin..." Lu Zeming sneered, "Since ancient times, people with the same surname cannot marry each other. You and Qin Wan both have the surname Qin, so how can you be considered cousins?"

?

When it comes to kinship ethics, the eyes of the onlookers light up.

?

Qin Guangjin's explanation made things worse, so he simply stopped explaining and drove him out. "I won't waste my words with a villain like you. Get out of here, or don't blame me for being rude to you."

?

Lu Zeming laughed so hard that tears came out. "You want me to get out? Have you forgotten that this is my house?! My name is clearly written on the title deed, and you want me to get out?!"

?

The spectators have always been aware of participation, and there were several reminders from the crowd to hold back their laughter.

?

"I remember attending the wedding of Lu Dalang and Qin Niangzi half a month ago. How come the male owner of this house has become Mr. Qin just a few days later?"

?

"I've never heard of a cousin being able to take over the cousin's home and drive out the brother-in-law."

?

"I said that woman who spends all day painting her eyebrows and eyes doesn't look like a decent person."

?

"Lu Dalang is wearing a hat right after getting married, how pitiful..."

?

The discussions were like loud slaps in the face of Qin Guangjin and Qin Wan.

?

Although Qin Wan secretly earned the man's money to supplement the family income, she still had to save her face. When she was ridiculed in front of others, she was so ashamed that she couldn't stand and ran back to her room with her face covered.

?

Qin Guangjin also wanted to find a place to hide, but this was not his home.

?

He regretted very much that he had put the house deed in Lu Zeming's name in order to deceive Xie Xiangyu.

?

No, he regretted finding Lu Zeming, the ungrateful man, as a shield, but he ended up inviting a wolf into the house.

?

Qin Guangjin took a deep breath to calm himself down.

?

He also has some private property hidden away in places unknown to everyone.

?

When the storm dies down a bit, he will kill Lu Zeming, and the house will naturally return to his hands.

?

A little lack of patience will ruin big plans, so there's nothing wrong with giving in temporarily.

?

As long as he can endure until Qin Shou passes the imperial examination and becomes an official in the court, he will repay the humiliation he suffered today tenfold or a hundredfold!

?

Qin Guangjin comforted himself in his heart, pursed his lips and walked out of the yard, but Lu Zeming stopped him.

?

"Mr. Lu, don't go too far." Qin Guangjin gritted his teeth and warned Lu Zeming in a low voice, "Don't forget that I have something on you, too. If you really want to make a big fight, I may not be afraid of you."

?

Lu Zeming had prepared himself for Qin Guangjin's revenge. His expression changed for a moment, but then returned to normal in the blink of an eye. "Don't leave in such a hurry. You haven't taken your things with you yet."
