Chapter 386
Madam Su’s complexion darkened even more, and even the veins on her neck could be seen convulsing, she was obviously really outraged and wanted to walk away but didn’t dare to.
If she really walked away now, there was no way for her to fill in the missing money. She was afraid Qin Zhun would be convicted and that she wouldn’t be able to release him.
After suppressing her anger, Madam Su brought up Old Madam Qin again to pressure them. “Do you siblings have the heart to let your grandmother live on the streets?” Even if they don’t care about Qin Zhun, it should be different when it comes to Old Madam Qin!
Qin Jiu brightly smiled as she calmly said, “Second Aunt can rest assured, grandmother is our grandmother, if second uncle and second aunt can’t afford to support her, then the three of us siblings can support her.”
This Qin Jiu! Madam Su glared at Qin Jiu fiercely, wishing to tear her apart. The eldest miss of the eldest house was really a bad influence, she even pushed her two brothers to fight against the second house!
Qin Jiu suggested, “Why don’t I accompany second aunt to the marquis’ residence and bring grandmother over….”
“No need!” Madam Su interrupted Qin Jiu angrily and anxiously.
What kind of a son would let an old lady live with her grandson when he’s around!
If she really lets Qin Jiu pick up Old Madam Qin, then the whole capital would probably poke the second house’s backbone, and maybe even gossip that she drove away her mother-in-law because of what happened to Qin Zhun!
Knowing that she couldn’t get money from Qin Jiu, Madam Su couldn’t stay any longer. She flung her sleeves and left before the hatred in her heart could burst out.
These siblings were white-eyed wolves. They were raised by the Marquis, but they were so ruthless, ungrateful and do not care about any blood or family ties.
And the worst of them was this Qin Jiu, who not only cheated the second house of their properties but now refuses to help them.
In outrage, Madam Su marches out of the Qin Mansion’s main hall.
Lest they attract gossipers Qin Jiu didn’t send her off, so it was only Qin Zening who personally send their guest off, all the way to the gate.
The carriage and servants of the Marquis’s mansion were waiting there, Madam Su held her maidservant’s hand, almost couldn’t wait to get on the carriage.
“Second Aunt, when you go back don’t wander off again, it’s best to stay in the house.” Qin Zening suddenly spoke out and advised, “What second uncle didn’t do, can’t fall on him.”
After all that was said and done, they were still family. When the whole family was exiled to Minzhou, Qin Zhun treated him well. At that time, there were many children in the family and life was hard but all the good things in the family were still given to them.
With this in mind, Qin Zening specifically reminded Madam Su not to mess around and avoid making mistakes.
Madam Su who was now in the carriage looked at Qin Zening from the window, her face turned ugly again and her chest heaved violently as she said in a cold and angry voice, “Ning’er, your second uncle raised you up, if you don’t want to help there is no need to say these cold words. Aren’t you just being too sarcastic?!”
Madam Su glared at Qin Zening with hostility as she heavily lowered the carriage curtain and commanded. “Go!”
The coachman flicked his whip, driving the carriage out through the corner gate.
Qin Zening shrugged his shoulders looking as if he didn’t care if Madam Su listens to him or not.
He then returned to the main hall, and as he walked under the eaves, he saw Qin Zeyu coming up to meet him, asking curiously. “Big brother, do you know what second uncle has actually committed?”
Although Qin Zening didn’t leave home these past two days, he still knew a little about the incident regarding Qin Zhun, since Pei Qi and the others came to tell him these things.
Qin Zening replied, “Changying’s account books were short of a large amount of money so the emperor ordered Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate this matter, not only Second Uncle but even half of the officials in Taipusu were put in jail.”
“Big Brother, is this matter very serious?” Qin Zeyu poured tea for his brother , with a complicated expression.
In less than a year, Qin Zeyu has grown up a lot and knows that their second uncle and second aunt were not as good to him as he thought they were in the past, but that doesn’t mean he expects them to be bad.
Qin Zening picked up the celadon teacup and calmly said. “If second uncle and second aunt are only willing to listen, at this critical time they must not act recklessly. There is a big chance that second uncle’s case will be dismissed.”
After a pause, Qin Zening added. “The emperor is the most magnanimous.” Or rather, cherishes old friendships.
But if Qin Zhun or Madam Su does something stupid again and angers the emperor, it would be hard to say.
“Emperor Uncle has a good temper and is kind.” Qin Jiu nodded in agreement.
Otherwise, with how Qin Zhun hops around to seek the dragon’s merit, provides money, and gives his adopted daughter as the second prince’s concubine, how could the emperor turn a blind eye after seeing all of this. The emperor endured, and with his generous temperament he gave Qin Zhun another chance time and time again, but whether Qin Zhun appreciated it was hard to say.
Qin Zening said, “Next, it’s up to Second Uncle himself.”
After saying this, he didn’t talk about this matter anymore and just continue drinking his tea silently.
While, Qin Zeyu muttered softly, “Gamblers will not stop until they gambled all their money.”
Qin Zening seemed to be preoccupied and didn’t pay attention, but Qin Jiu who was sitting right next to Qin Zeyu, heard him and finally looked at him in a different light.
Aiyou, her little naughty child has really grown up!
Qin Jiu also has the same thought as Qin Zeyu, Qin Zhun was the kind of person who would never give up until he reached Yellow River.*
