ah?

Seeing Ye Yun's serious expression, Qin Zheng didn't dare to delay and quickly got up and followed her into the house.

Qin Xiang'e, holding her bowl with a bewildered expression, watched Ye Yun and Qin Zheng's departing figures, thinking to herself, "Why does this scene look so familiar?"

Zhengzi's wife doesn't have a prejudice against her, does she?

The old lady sunbathing glanced at Qin Xiang'e and sneered, "Hmph, serves you right for whispering to Qin Zheng when you first met your wife!"

...

Inside the house.

Ye Yun sought out Qin Zheng because of Ye Xue's matter. She asked Qin Zheng to sit down first, then leaned over and whispered, "Qin Zheng, you know a lot of people, could you help me find out some information about the county town?"

"What?"

Qin Zheng didn't quite understand. "Honey, what are you doing in the county town?"

Ye Yun smiled sheepishly, "It wasn't me, it was Ye Xue. I found out that she's met some bad people outside of school and often hangs out with them. A few days ago, when I went to sell herbs, I saw her getting abortion pills. I don't know who she was getting them for. I'm worried something might happen to her. You know a lot of people, could you help me find out what's going on?"

"Abortion pills?"

This was the first time Qin Zheng had heard this word before, and his eyes widened in surprise.

Ye Yun quickly covered his mouth, "Keep your voice down, don't let outsiders hear..."

It's best to keep such a disgraceful affair a secret, otherwise the whole family will be implicated, and even she, the married daughter, will suffer the consequences.

She's alright, but her brother Ye Pengfei isn't married yet.

If Ye Xue's reputation is ruined, Ye Pengfei will also be implicated, and matchmakers will probably not even want her brother anymore.

"Wife, who do you want me to ask about?" Qin Zheng's mouth was covered, and he frowned, asking incredulously in a muffled voice.

Ye Yun released him. "Ye Xue."

"Your sister from your mother's side?" Qin Zheng looked completely unsophisticated, questioning everything. "Isn't your sister from your mother's side younger than you? How come she's already buying abortion pills?"

Uh… Ye Yun couldn’t help but facepalm.

"It shouldn't be that she wants an abortion. I'm still a bit confused, so I thought I'd ask you to help me check it out." After all, she was her own family member, so she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed talking about it.

Qin Zheng roughly understood.

"So you're saying your younger sister from your family has made some bad friends, and you're worried something might happen to her, right?"

"...Not really."

Ye Yun thought that all she wanted was for Ye Jian'an to live a peaceful life.

Having finally dealt with Liu Meilan, Ye Xue couldn't afford to cause any more trouble.

"Don't worry, honey. I know people in the county town. I'll go there this afternoon and have them inquire about it. By the way, your sister's name is Ye Xue, right?"

Ye Yun nodded.

Qin Zheng agreed, took out paper and pen from his bundle, and handed them to her, "Wife, write her name down so I can have someone ask her, so we don't ask the wrong person again."

ah?

Ye Yun was slightly taken aback, then smiled and looked him up and down: "Qin Zheng, you can't write?"

"How could I write this?" Qin Zheng asked, completely bewildered.

"Tch..." Ye Yun said with a hint of jealousy, "You can even write my name, so why can't you write Ye Xue's? Didn't you have your eye on her back then?"

"What?"

Qin Zheng was dumbfounded.

Ye Yun clicked her tongue and pouted, saying, "Big brother, stop pretending. When the matchmaker came to my house to propose marriage, she made it clear that you specifically asked for Ye Xue."

"Who specifically asked for Ye Xue?"

Qin Zheng jumped up.

He grabbed Ye Yun's slender wrist with his large hand and hurriedly explained, "Wife, you can't wrong me! I didn't specifically ask for Ye Xue, I don't even know who she is! Who specifically asked for Ye Xue!"
