Rebirth: From being expelled from the imperial court to becoming a high-ranking official

After getting Qin Yunhe's assurance, Yu Ru felt relaxed and slowly stopped crying.

"Then don't go pounding rice for others." There was a rare hint of coquettishness in Yu Ru's tone.

Qin Yunhe knew that she was worried about him, so he nodded quickly and said, "No, no, I've already quit my job."

At this point, Qin Yunhe couldn't help but want to show off to Yuru: "Manager Xu helped me get a book copying job, guess how much money?"

Yu Ru always cooperated with Qin Yun He's showing off, so she asked, "How much?"

"Five taels of silver!"

Qin Yunhe took out the remaining silver and put it in Yuru's hand: "This is the remaining deposit, you can use it first. I will give it to you after I finish copying."

"No, you can take it back. New Year's Day is coming soon, and my family needs money. Lai Di and I don't spend much, so don't tire yourself out."

Yu Ru always thinks so much about him.

Qin Yunhe felt warm in his heart, and without further ado, he stuffed the money into her hand: "Take it, there is money at home. You are living in your mother's house now, so it's better to have more money, and don't let Feng Guilan make trouble."

Hearing him calling her sister-in-law's maiden name, Yu Ru hit him in anger and did not refuse.

"Mom~" The sweet and timid voice of my daughter came from behind.

Qin Yunhe slapped his head and realized that he was so busy taking care of his wife that he forgot about his daughter.

"Baby, come here," Qin Yunhe turned around, took out the rattle, squatted down, and said to his daughter, "Look what Daddy brought you~"

Lai Di was over two years old and had just started to remember things. She hadn't seen Qin Yunhe for more than a month and she was already unfamiliar with him. She timidly walked around Qin Yunhe and ran to his mother behind him: "Mom, let's eat."

It was not until her mother hugged her in her arms that she turned around and looked at Qin Yunhe with curiosity and timidity.

Qin Yunhe felt a pang in his heart. He quickly raised the rattle carefully and said, "Di'er, what do you think this is?"

Lai Di looked at it for a while before quickly taking it and turning back into her mother's arms.

"Baby? What happened to our baby?" Yu Ru coaxed her daughter in her arms in a gentle voice, turning around to let her face Qin Yunhe: "Don't you recognize your daddy? This is daddy."

Qin Yunhe quickly put on a flattering smile, but his daughter turned her head and looked the other way. But this time she didn't seem to be afraid anymore, she just thought it was fun and started to giggle.

Qin Yunhe understood that his daughter was too young and he almost forgot about her after not seeing her for so long. Looking at his daughter's innocent, carefree, lovely and adorable appearance, he felt mixed emotions.

After the divorce in the previous life, I only saw my daughter a few times and we hardly talked.

I don’t know what impression my daughter had of him in her previous life, and whether she would occasionally think of her father.

I don’t know... I don’t know if my daughter would hope that her father would save her in her last moments.

Thinking of this, Qin Yunhe felt sad and his eyes were filled with tears.

Since his rebirth, Qin Yunhe has been deliberately not thinking about Yuru and his daughter's situation in the previous life, for fear of falling into sadness again and missing the opportunity to start anew in this life. Now that his heart is accidentally touched, his emotions tend to be out of control.

Yu Ru held her daughter and turned around several times. Every time she turned her daughter to face Qin Yun He, her daughter would giggle and turn to the other side. After repeating this several times, Yu Ru no longer insisted and turned around with a smile. She saw Qin Yun He's eyes full of tears and a sad expression.

"Ah Wen, are you okay? Lai Di has just started to remember things, so she will feel strange if she doesn't see him for a few days. But if you see him a few more times, he will soon be familiar with her again."

Qin Yunhe quickly calmed down and shook his head, saying, "It's okay, I know. You and Lai Di should go and have dinner. I'll come another day. I have to copy books in the afternoon, so I'll go back first."

After confirming Yu Ru's feelings, the worry about money was temporarily relieved. The burden that had been weighing on Qin Yun He's heart since his rebirth finally eased a little.

Qin Yunhe walked back while his belief became more firm.

In this life, I must protect Yu Ru and my daughter, and make sure they are safe, happy and joyful.

Qin Yunhe still had seventy or eighty cents left in his hand. He bought some cakes that his mother liked and went home.

When Qin's mother heard that they were going to Mr. Li's house to copy books, she was very excited.

"Really? It's Mr. Li's family that needs to copy the book? What a coincidence."

A few days ago, my son insisted on pounding rice, and many people in the village laughed at him behind his back. But now my son wants to copy books at Mr. Li's house and earn that easy money. Isn't this a way to regain his face?

"This time, it's all thanks to Shopkeeper Xu, otherwise there would be no chance to encounter such a good thing."

"Yes, yes, I'll buy some cakes and fruits for you later. I'll think of you next time something good like this happens."

The mother and son were very happy as they ate and talked.

"Give me the money for the past two days and I'll put it away."

"What money?" Qin Yunhe played dumb.

"You pound rice and copy books, how do you make money?"

"Where will the money come from when I haven't copied the book yet?" Qin Yunhe buried his head in eating and didn't look at his mother.

"What about the money for pounding rice?"

"I bought some cakes," Qin Yunhe pointed at the cake package that had been opened, "Didn't you just eat a piece?"

When Qin's mother heard this, she got angry and said, "Do you think your mother is stupid? Those cakes cost 200 coins?"

"You want both hundred coins? That's your son's hard-earned money."

The main income of the Qin family was kept by Qin's mother. Qin Yunhe occasionally earned a little money by copying books and writing words, but it was not much. He also needed to buy books and pens, so Qin's mother usually wouldn't ask him for it specifically. If he gave it to her, she would keep it. If she didn't give it to him, it would be fine.

But he didn't expect that his mother would ask for the 200 coins for pounding rice this time. He felt guilty and could only make up something else.

"You are not without money. Didn't you sell some cloth a few days ago? You got a few hundred coins."

Since the beginning of autumn, Yuru has borrowed the loom from her eldest cousin's house. She weaves cloth when she is not busy, hoping to exchange it for some silver. After a few months, she has woven a lot of cloth.

Later, the two suddenly divorced and the cloth selling business was put on hold.

After the divorce in the previous life, Qin Yunhe had been sulking and didn't think much about it. It was not until he came back in this life that he found out that before leaving, Yuru had finished weaving the last piece of cloth and sorted it out before leaving. It was obvious that she didn't really want to divorce.

Then I thought about it, after Yu Ru returned home, the Fan family did not come to take Yu Ru's dowry immediately, but it took several days before they came with people to take it away in a threatening manner.

I guess Yu Ru didn't tell her brother about the divorce at first, but was waiting for him to pick her up, but she didn't expect that she never went.

A married woman has been living with her children in her parents' home, so her brother and sister-in-law would definitely ask about it. Yu Ru probably told them because she couldn't hide it anymore.

When he figured this out, his regrets became even greater.

It turns out that he had so many chances to make amends, but unfortunately he missed them every time.

In fact, Qin Yunhe did not tell his mother at that time. He just thought Yuru would come back by herself in a few days.

When Qin's mother asked him about it, he just said that Yuru had gone back to her parents' home and didn't take it seriously. They had quarreled before, but it was over quickly.

A few days after Yu Ru left, it snowed. A classmate said that one of his relatives had a garden with beautiful scenery, so he invited everyone to go there to enjoy the snow. He and a few classmates went there to play for two days.

When he came back from outside, he heard his mother cursing at home from a distance. When he got back, he found out that the Fan family had brought people to take away Yu Ru's dowry.

Seeing him rambling and distracted, Mother Qin said angrily, "I'm not going to spend it. I'll keep it for you. Aren't you going to take the annual exam after the New Year? Don't you need money for registration and travel expenses?"

"I know. I'm going to make money. I'll get the money after I finish copying before the New Year. Don't worry."

Qin Yun was afraid that if he said too much and let the cat out of the bag, his mother would know that he had given the money to Yuru, which would inevitably make her unhappy again.

"I have to go quickly. I agreed to go there this afternoon. It's not good to go too late on my first visit."

After saying this, Qin Yunhe lifted the corner of his robe and slipped away.
