Chapter 237 Qin Jingshu's grievances
It has been rumored in the imperial capital that the Qin and Mo families have a verbal engagement, but the Mo family has never acknowledged it to the public.
Mo Shaochen has taken over the position of head of the family for several years and has long since established himself. Qin Jingshu is already 26 years old this year, but there has been no reaction from the Mo family.
Many people were discussing privately that Mo Shaochen had no intention of marrying Qin Jingshu, otherwise he would not have wasted Miss Qin's youth.
As for why he did not deny the rumors of the engagement, it was to save face for Mr. Qin and the Qin family.
Chen Guoan realized belatedly that he had said the wrong thing. After chatting for a while, he found an excuse to go home.
Only the grandfather and grandson were left by the pond. Qin Jingshu looked at the rippling water surface and his eyes gradually turned red.
Old Master Qin touched the top of her head with his big, broad hand.
"Tell Grandpa if you have any grievances."
Qin Jingshu choked up and called out, "Grandpa..."
"Alas, your Grandpa Chen has been restrained and cautious all his life, and has never made any mistakes. How could he accidentally say something wrong? He just wanted to remind you and me what people are talking about outside. He has no bad intentions."
"I know."
Qin Jingshu couldn't help but lean on the old man's shoulder and cry.
Old Master Qin patted her back comfortingly, "Grandpa knows you've been wronged, but you were indeed a little impatient this time. Your grandmother Si has been wise all her life, and she may not be able to see through your little tricks."
Qin Jingshu leaned on the old woman's shoulder, her voice a little dull, "Even if Grandma Si doesn't like it, I can't stand it.
In the past, I could wait and endure because Shao Chen had never been polite to any woman.
If Jiang Ziyi hadn't mentioned that girl, I would have been completely kept in the dark.
That woman has nothing good in her except her face. What on earth did he see in her?
If it was the daughter of a noble family like He, Chen, Lin or Shen, I could swallow this anger."
Old Master Qin patted her head and said earnestly:
"Grandpa has asked someone to find out everything you want to know. We now know the details of that girl, but Jingshu, Grandpa has something to tell you.
No matter how calm and steady he is, first of all, he is a man.
Men are visual species, and it is their nature to like beautiful women.”
Qin Jingshu raised her head excitedly, her red eyes full of grievance and resentment.
"Shao Chen is different from other men! There are so many famous ladies and rich girls in the capital, he can choose anyone, I can tolerate it, but he just fell in love with a straw bag beauty from a remote town.
He may not like me, but he cannot humiliate me in this way!
When the news spreads, I don’t know how those famous families will laugh at me and the Qin family behind my back!
I am the daughter of the Qin family, talented and beautiful, with a PhD in English, but I am not as good as a useless idiot who is studying in a vocational high school?"
When Mr. Qin saw that his granddaughter had lost control of her emotions and had lost all her composure, he felt distressed and disappointed.
"Are you giving up now? My Qin family's pampered and carefully cultivated eldest daughter is so vulnerable? If this is the case, you'd better give up as soon as possible. I will arrange for a celebrity and talented person who is well-matched with you to meet tomorrow!"
When Qin Jingshu heard this, his face turned pale.
"No! Grandpa, I won't marry anyone except Shaochen!"

Old Master Qin had a serious face and said, "Then stop crying. If a woman sheds too many tears, they will seem cheap and useless.
No matter who you marry into in the future, you will be the mistress of the household. No matter when and where you are, you should let people see your graceful, noble and elegant side.
As a woman, you can show weakness in front of your husband, but you must never cry and pester like ordinary women. "
Qin Jingshu gradually stopped feeling sad and angry, and she wiped away her tears.
"Thank you, Grandpa. I'll remember that."
Seeing that his granddaughter regained her composure so quickly, Grandpa Qin smiled with satisfaction and relief.
"You know the story of the cinnabar mole and the mosquito blood, right? Rather than letting him not get it and eventually having it grow into a cinnabar mole on his chest, it's better to let him pick it off...
I accidentally heard a sentence: You can't stop running just because you can't reach your ideal goal.
I think it makes a lot of sense, and I’d like to share this with all you little cuties, muah!
