The marriage between Su Qingli and Qi Jinqian was widely rumored.
The entire capital was talking about the marriage between Su Qingli and Qi Jinqian. It was a hot topic and everyone knew about it.
"Noble ladies in the past were different. Even though they had fallen into such a state of destitution, there were still high-ranking officials who took over. Tsk tsk tsk!"
The man at the roadside wine stall held a wine glass and made sarcastic remarks, mocking Su Qingli who had lost her virginity.
"Bah! Isn't the Sixth Young Master also married and has a child? Why doesn't anyone think he's a deserted husband? He's also disabled in both legs. If I were to say, Miss Su would be the one at the worse loss in this marriage."
Wu Sanniang, a shrewd woman known for her bold demeanor, stepped forward to serve the male guest more food. Unfortunately, she overheard him belittling Su Qingli and argued unconvincedly.
Xie Linyuan felt very uncomfortable when he heard this. Su Qingli didn't want to marry her, but turned around and married a disabled young man. He was very confused and drank a sip of wine in silence, "Boss, pay the bill!"
Wu Sanniang collected the money for the wine, and the drunk Xie Linyuan stood up angrily and walked towards Su Qingli's house with one step deep and one step shallow.
Although his steps were a little unsteady and his vision was not as clear as when he was sober, Xie Linyuan could still roughly see the way to Su Qingli's house.
A young man in a wheelchair appeared from the side. He was handsome and elegant. It was Qi Jinqian. "Xie Xiaojiang, General, where are you going?"
Xie Linyuan got angry when he saw the wheelchair. The word "disabled" flashed through his mind. He guessed that the person blocking his way was Qi Jinqian. He couldn't help but feel furious. "Where am I going? Do I need to tell you?"
In an instant, Xie Linyuan's clenched fist swept towards Qi Jinqian.
Yin Han's heart instantly rose to his throat, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Sixth Master..."
Qi Jinqian looked at Xie Linyuan calmly and leisurely, adjusting the sleeves of his brocade robes slowly and calmly. "Yinhan, I believe in the character of General Xie. He would never attack a cripple like me."
Xie Linyuan's fist stopped in front of Qi Jinqian's forehead. He gritted his teeth to restrain the urge to hit him. Even though he had been drinking, his self-control was stronger than that of many people.
Several years of training in the barracks gave him an extraordinary ability to withstand pressure.
"You must be Qi Jinqian, the son of the recently famous Minister Qi, right?" These words seemed to come out from between Qi Jinqian's teeth.
"That's right, thanks to Miss Su, I have become a popular figure in the capital." Qi Jinqian laughed at himself.
"Qingli can't possibly like you. Even if she doesn't like me, she wouldn't agree to this marriage. Did you force her to get married?"
Xie Linyuan recalled the conversation he had with Su Qingli more than a month ago. He was heartbroken. Su Qingli had told him that her lover was Fu Xuechen. The sudden appearance of Qi Jinqian was quite puzzling.
"Miss Su and I are in love, so General Xie, please stop wishful thinking. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for not cherishing her back then. You deserve the loss of this beautiful woman."
Qi Jinqian's words were sharp, like a knife stabbing Xie Linyuan in the heart.
Xie Linyuan roared in frustration, "You... Mr. Qi, stop talking nonsense in front of this general!"
If the man in front of him wasn't a disabled person in a wheelchair, he would have punched him long ago. How could he allow him to blatantly provoke him again and again?
"Is General Xie angry out of shame?" Qi Jinqian looked straight ahead, tilting his head slightly, a faint smile on his lips as he quietly watched Xie Linyuan. He suddenly changed the subject, "I, Qi, beg General Xie not to disturb the peace of A-li's family. I will take good care of her family, so please don't worry about them."
Xie Linyuan was speechless. Qi Jinqian's words made him want to retreat. He staggered back a few steps and almost fell to the ground.
If he missed Su Qingli once, he would miss Su Qingli in this life. Maybe God was punishing him!
"This is the money Ah Li owes you. Thank you, General. Please count it carefully and see if there is any shortage. I will make up for it later."
Qi Jinqian calmly watched Xie Linyuan's painful expression, took out the bulging coin purse from his waist and handed it forward. Everything was within his calculations.
"That's enough. Qingli and I are even. We'll never meet again." After weighing the two options, Xie Linyuan was worried that his wishful thinking would cause trouble for Su Qingli and the Su family. In addition, his parents at home were still not optimistic about this marriage. He said this with great pain and then left in embarrassment.
"Sixth Master is really capable. He sent this young General Xie away with just a few words." Yin Han gave a thumbs up. His Sixth Master has always been good at making plans. Even Minister Qi and Queen Qi would listen to Qi Jinqian's opinions.
"He's just a military commander with extraordinary talent in military strategy. In terms of scheming, he's far inferior to the Prime Minister, and not as clear-headed as his father, General Xie. That's why he was so foolish as to start with Su Huaihai, thinking that he could impress Miss Su by devoting himself wholeheartedly."
In Qi Jinqian's eyes, Xie Linyuan's behavior was naive, and it was not unfair for him to have his beloved taken away by Fu Xuechen.
On the surface, he is a decisive general, but in reality he is indecisive.
After solving Xie Linyuan's worries, he should be on guard against Fu Xuechen's unusual movements. He didn't believe that Fu Xuechen could give up Su Qingli.
He knew very well that men were creatures that could not stand provocation. The more someone snatched the prey away, the less likely they would let it go easily. This was the official start of his contest with Fu Xuechen.
It is still unknown who will win!
On the other hand, Su Huaihai picked up a cheap son-in-law for nothing, and he was so happy that he didn't know what to do.
"Father, please pay more attention to the road ahead and be careful not to hit your head again." Su Qingli reminded Su Huaihai carefully from behind.
This house was specially given to them by Qi Jinqian as his son-in-law, and Su Qingli had originally refused to accept it.
Qi Jinqian, however, persuaded her to accept it. On the one hand, it could maintain the dignity of the Qi family and himself, and on the other hand, it could show the deep love between them and stop the gossips.
"Father knows. By the way, Li'er, when did you and son-in-law Qi meet? Why did you two young people hide it from us?"
Su Huaihai got this satisfactory house, and heard that Su Qingli and Qi Jinqian loved each other, and their marriage would be a good match. However, this was the first time he met Qi Jinqian, and he subconsciously felt that their marriage was too hasty.
"Father, Jin Qian and I have known each other for a short time. I worked as a private tutor in the Qi residence for a while, and that's how we formed an indissoluble bond."
Su Qingli only told half the truth, and she buried the other half deep in her heart and could not speak it.
Mrs. Su and Su Zhaoming also visited this elegant house. Although it was not as grand as the marquis's mansion, it was much better than the thatched cottage.
As for her sachet business, Su Qingli had to put it aside under Qi Jinqian's lobbying, and concentrate on being the sixth wife of the Qi family, taking care of her husband and raising her daughter.
