Chapter 433 Rhetoric
Although he also benefited, it was far less than Qin Siyuan and Gu Liuye.

Thinking of Lin Ziqi, he felt a little indignant, as if he was doing something to help others.

Hearing what the couple said, Qin Heng couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and said, "My second brother-in-law is still sick today, so I'm afraid he can't go. Will you go, second sister? Mom is still thinking about you at home. My eldest sister can't come because of something at home. Dad only invited a few close people to the banquet to avoid gossip."

Although Qin Jijiu was happy, he still took into consideration that his in-laws' family was holding a funeral, so he just called his daughter and son-in-law back to have a meal together.

Qin Wan immediately said: "Of course I have to go back."

Lin Ziqi frowned.

Qin Wan said, "My husband, your cousin is at home to help you take care of the medicine. I will go back and ask about the poetry competition."

When Qin Heng heard this, he found it a little strange, so he frowned and looked at Lin Ziqi.

Lin Ziqi hurriedly said to Qin Wan, "Are you going to take the fire-making maid with you when you go home? With her here and mother here, there's no need for my cousin to worry. I made it clear that day, so don't say that in the future. People who don't know might think that our family is mean and treats relatives like servants."

Qin Wan just smiled.

Qin Heng stood up and said, "I'm going to say goodbye to my in-laws' wife. Second sister, pack your things and leave."

Qin Wan responded.

Lin Ziqi said: "Wan'er, I have something for you. Please give it to my father-in-law for me."

After Qin Heng left, Lin Ziqi whispered to Qin Wan: "Find out more about who is planning for Gu Liuye and who is guiding Qin Siyuan."

The two were still in the same boat, so Qin Wan naturally agreed.

Yanhong had already packed up her things. Qin Wan didn't have time to look at the things Qin Heng brought, so she put them all in her own room and told the maid to keep an eye on the room.

Madam Yu found many excuses to wander around, her eyes glued to Qin Wan.

Yanhong saw this and couldn't help cursing softly. The followers brought by Qin Heng took the rattan box from Yanhong's hand, and they all went out together.

After Qin Heng left the Lin family, he whispered to Qin Wan, "Second sister, is that woman the cousin of my second brother-in-law? Why does she look like a restless person?"

Qin Wan was very surprised and asked, "How did you know that? When she first came, I felt sorry for her because she came from the countryside and was rejected at such a young age. Later, I found out that she was not a good person."

Qin Heng frowned and said, "Second sister, why are you acting and talking more and more like a commoner? How can you be a government official's wife in the future?"

Qin Wan spat, "I don't know if I can make it to that day. As the saying goes, three women make a drama. If I still act politely, I'm afraid that these two aunts and nephews will eat me to the bone."

Yanhong chimed in, "Yes, the young master doesn't know the dangers of the world in the Jijiu Mansion, let alone the life we ​​live in the Lin family. The old lady doesn't like what the young lady does. She just asks for money, and even if she pays, she can't eat anything good. As soon as the son-in-law comes back, she speaks ill of the young lady in front of the son-in-law, and serves delicious food... Whatever the young lady says, the son-in-law thinks she despises the old lady, and now there's a cousin, it's even worse."

Qin Heng sighed and stopped talking.

This is the day that my second sister chose herself, what else can I say?

My mother kept complaining at home that my second sister was giving up her good life and that she was stupid and would definitely regret it in the future.

But I regret that I can't change it back now.

Moreover, Qin Heng saw that his eldest sister's brother-in-law's personality was very compatible with his eldest sister, but this might not be the case if he was with his second sister.

Dad is right, everyone has their own destiny. As a younger brother, he can't read, and he will have to rely on his brothers-in-law in the future, so he shouldn't interfere.

After Lin's mother and the others left, her face fell. She started throwing things around in the kitchen, scolding the cook until she cried, and then she went to the door of Lin Ziqi's study and kept muttering, "I married a daughter-in-law who only cares about her parents' family. She even took away a few pickled mandarin fish. If I let her run the household in the future, I'm afraid she would send every straw to her parents' family."

Lin Ziqi was already feeling depressed, and after hearing his mother muttering these words, he said angrily, "Isn't her dowry already in my hands? What else do you want?"

Mother Lin felt so uncomfortable from being pushed that she immediately sat down on the ground and started crying.

"What's the point of living? My son, whom I raised with my own hands, forgot about me after he got married. She's the daughter of the chief priest, and I can't say a word to her. I, an old lonely woman, am annoying."

Lin Ziqi was struck by headaches one after another. He could not bear it any longer and picked up the pencil on the table and threw it to the ground.

"Clang clang."

Mother Lin's crying paused.

Madam Yu, who was standing beside him and didn't know whether to comfort or add fuel to the fire, asked, "Why did you break something again?"

She originally wanted to make a few provocative remarks, saying that Qin Wan placed all the things sent by her parents' home in the bedroom as if to prevent thieves. But when she heard the sound of something breaking in the house, she hurried in and saw Lin Ziqi's face was pale and beads of sweat were dripping down his head.

"Cousin, cousin, what's wrong with you?"

……

Qin Wan followed Qin Heng into the Qin residence. Cui came up to them and asked, "Why didn't Mr. Lin come?"

Qin Heng said: "My second brother-in-law was ill, so I brought my second sister back."

Cui's face turned ugly, and she scolded, "Mr. Lin is sick, you should stay at home, otherwise your mother-in-law will complain again."

Qin Wan said, "It's an old problem of his. It flares up from time to time. We were all scared at first, but now even his mother is not worried anymore. Shouldn't I come back for such a happy occasion as my cousin and brother's audience with the emperor? Didn't my mother-in-law and him say nothing and even let me bring something back?"

Cui was relieved, and when she saw that she brought a rattan box, she asked, "What's in it?"

"It's the mandarin fish that my mother-in-law pickled. It's perfect for making stinky mandarin fish. It can be used as an additional dish."

Cui knew that she was in financial difficulty and secretly felt sorry for her. She smiled and said, "This thing is good. Your father couldn't eat much the past two days and he kept saying that he missed the taste of this."

The mother and daughter talked hand in hand and sent Qin Heng to the front.

Qin Wan asked: "Who did you invite to your home?"

Cui said, "They are all from your father's side. There are also a few students. If they are full, there will only be one table."

Qin Wan stopped talking.

Cui said, "You will help me entertain the women in the family later. It will just be a family dinner, where we will eat and chat. We won't even drink much."

Qin Wan curled her lips and said, "I know, he is worried about the Marquis's Mansion. Mother, cousin Siyuan is so lucky, how come he caught the emperor's eye. I heard that the Marquis and the Yelu people played Ju because of cousin. Heng'er didn't explain it very clearly. Mother, can you tell me what happened?"

At this moment, the guests had not arrived yet, so Cui repeated it.

Qin Wan sighed, "Mom, this person is different now because of his luck. Who gave advice to Master Gu Liu and cousin Siyuan?"
