Qin San Niang took Da Bao and Wang Er Lang to eat a bowl of wontons, and also tried to get some information out of them!
Only then did they realize that their family had been robbed!
The thief somehow found out where the Qin family hid their money, and in the dead of night, he swept it all away. Everyone was sound asleep and had no idea.
Enraged by the loss of her money, Qin declared that she was not Wang Erlang's mother and had no obligation to continue supporting them. The next day, she packed her belongings and disappeared. As for Old Man Wang? He went mad, claiming that Qin had stolen his money and run away. A few nights later, he was found dead from a rope hanging from a roof beam…
A death occurred in the house. Even though there was no legal proceedings, the landlord felt it was bad luck. He cursed Wang Erlang severely, not only refusing to refund the remaining rent but also kicking the father and son out of the house.
Wang Erlang took Dabao to look for work for several days, but no one would hire someone with a child. Some kind people would give them a few bites of food...
As for why he didn't seek help from Ruyi Cake Shop, it wasn't that he didn't want to, but rather that he felt ashamed. His family had abandoned his sister-in-law and child, and now they were going to beg for help. Wang Erlang might be thick-skinned, but he wasn't without shame. He just wanted to try his best first, and if all else failed, he'd consider other options.
Hearing Qin San Niang's arrangement, he thought it was quite good. He had heard before that there were charitable halls in the city that specifically accepted refugees, but the eligibility checks were very strict. He never expected that it was run by his sister-in-law. Wang Erlang solemnly declared that he would work hard and would definitely not let his sister-in-law down.
Qin San Niang was quite satisfied with his attitude. As for Da Bao? He still had an arrogant look on his face, but when he saw Da Wa's gaze sweep over, he immediately wilted. He must have been teased by Da Wa a lot in the past.
Wang Erlang had other plans in mind. He wanted to find his mother and ask her why she had said she wasn't his biological mother. If that was the case, then where was his real mother? And who was he? But his mother might have been lying, after all, supporting a family was a huge burden! But he could work and earn money himself, so how could he let his mother go hungry?
"Never mind, we'll talk about it later!" Suddenly remembering the suspicious points about the theft, Wang Erlang hurriedly confessed to his sister-in-law, after all, his sister-in-law was meticulous and thought things through more thoroughly than he had.
“Sister-in-law, I think that thief is suspicious. There are no signs of ransacking the house. It's like he has X-ray vision. How did he know where Mother hid her money? To be honest, even I don't know!”
If he had known his mother had so much money, he would have persuaded her to buy a house long ago, even if it was just a thatched hut, at least the house couldn't be stolen!
Qin Sanniang laughed and said, "That goes without saying, it must have been done by someone you know. Think carefully, who around you knows about your situation?"
The person who knows that the Qin family has a lot of private savings is definitely not an outsider; it could very well be Chen Xiaoyun.
Wang Erlang frowned, lost in thought, but there were some things he needed to figure out for himself.
Qin San Niang handed the father and son over to Guo Er and gave him some instructions. If any of the shop assistants' family members wanted to come to the charity for help, they should just follow the procedures. It was limited to immediate family members only; others were not eligible.
Guo Er was quite happy to hear this, as it meant his mother could come over. It wasn't that he wanted to save money on food; he wasn't short of food. It was just that his mother was old and had poor eyesight, so he would feel more at ease having her under his watchful eye. Besides, there were many women in the charity hall who could keep him company, which would help pass the time.
Seeing that it was about time, Guo Er instructed Gou Dan'er to drive the people back to Shiligou. The mother and son were quite happy to have a car readily available.
That night, when all was quiet, Qin San Niang slipped into the space and listened to the contents of the bugging device.
After listening to their conversation, Qin San Niang sat and pondered for a long time. It wasn't until the moon was high in the sky that she finally sorted out her thoughts.
The man turned out to be the heir apparent of the Prince of Zhennan, who, from an ethical standpoint, should be Xie Yuyan's stepson. Xie Yuyan clearly admired this charming young man, and her words implied a willingness to lend him a hand. But what secret did Xie Yuyan possess that made her dare to negotiate with such a man?
Qin San Niang couldn't help but feel a little worried for her. Although she had never spoken to that young master, judging from his appearance and the slightest fluctuation in his voice from the bugging device, this man was definitely not a simple person!
And where is the body of the Prince of Liang's legitimate son that they want? Also, the bandits were originally the Prince of Zhennan's men, so will he listen to Xie Yuyan's advice and go to search for it?
Qin San Niang thought about it for a long time, but didn't think this matter had anything to do with her.
As long as Xie Yuyan wasn't specifically targeting her, everything would be fine! As for how the young master would treat Xie Yuyan, she wasn't optimistic.
That night, Qin Sanniang suddenly had a nightmare in which a band of bandits massacred the entire village of Shiligou! When she returned from He County, she saw a pile of corpses lying haphazardly, including the village head Chen Sheng, as well as Wang Guixiang, Shitou, Chen Dahe, and others. Terrified, she ran towards her home, but after running for a long time, she still couldn't find the row of blue-brick and tile houses...
Thinking of her children and her mother, Qin San Niang was overcome with grief! She woke up with a start, the light and shadow still clearly visible in the corners of her eyes.
In the latter half of the night, she couldn't fall asleep again. The first thing she saw when she closed her eyes was the unclosed eyes of the village head and the others before they died, and there was a little child in them...
His mind kept replaying that shocking scene. Could it be that he had overheard Xie Yuyan and her group's conspiracy, and was now dreaming about it day and night? But why did the scene feel so real? Why couldn't he see his own brick house? Where were his children and mother? Where were He Xiucai and the others…?
Qin San Niang transmigrated from her previous life. The strange and supernatural things she didn't believe in before, she now doesn't feel any psychological pressure when thinking about them. Could it be that this actually happened before? And the reason she didn't see Da Wa and A Niang was because they hadn't even reached Shi Li Gou at that time? Perhaps they had already disappeared along the way.
Was this dream a warning from heaven? I must have overlooked something…
He pondered with his eyes open until dawn, and finally figured it out. The only variable among them was Xiao Chang'an and Yuan Lang. The young master and Xiao Chang'an had some resemblance in their eyes and brows. Could it be that the scholar He rescued was the legitimate son of the Prince of Liang? Then his previous words, which were quite helpful, would make sense!
Damn, they're all shrewd people! They're really giving me a headache!
The next day, He Yingyuan received a question from Qin Sanniang, and his expression became somewhat unnatural. However, after years of keeping a low profile, his expression would not easily break down. He already understood that he could no longer deceive her. He had already considered this possibility, so he frankly told her what had happened, except for his bizarre experience.
