Chapter 338: The idea of ​​taking advantage of her unborn child

All the grudges from the previous life have disappeared.

The only thing Song Jin was concerned about at this moment was the whereabouts of his family. Compared to this, the affairs of Song Xiu and Qin Mingsong were simply not worth mentioning.

Then three rounds of drinks followed.

Song Jin left the table early and went back to his room to rest.

Xiaoyu took a look and followed, "Boss."

"What's the matter?"

Song Jin turned around and looked at Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu's expression clearly showed that something was wrong. Sure enough, she took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to Song Jin. "This is a letter from my brother. He said you will know after reading it."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiaoyu."

Song Jinwen took it with a smile, but did not open it immediately. Instead, he looked at Xiaoyu for a few times. The little girl had grown up a little and became a graceful young lady. "Xiaoyu has grown up, it's time to start looking for a marriage."

Xiaoyu smiled shyly and said, "Don't tease me, Boss."

Song Jin didn't treat her as a servant. "Your brother is not young anymore. Is he married?"

"Not yet." Xiaoyu shook her head.

Song Jin smiled and said, "Come back and talk to Aunt Long and ask her to help look for your brother."

Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, "Thank you very much, boss."

The brother and sister are orphans, and it is not easy for them to get married.

The daughters of good families would choose their family background and would not look for a husband without parents and relatives. Now someone is acting as a matchmaker for her brother, Xiaoyu is very happy.

Song Jin opened the letter.

This letter was said to be delivered by Lou Ruhan, but it was actually from Xing Lun.

In the letter, Xing Lun reported what he had done during this period. The letter also mentioned that the health department in Fuzhou said that they would continue to buy medicinal materials, and both parties were very satisfied after the last transaction.

Song Xiaocheng got promoted and is now a centurion.

In two years, it is not bad to go from a small soldier to a centurion.

Not everyone is Qin Chi, who can be promoted several levels in a year.

The letter mentioned Song Xiaocheng's trip to suppress pirates, saying that everything went smoothly, and also mentioned the names of several islands.

Song Jin immediately took out a sea chart from the secret compartment of the cabinet. It was the sea chart that Fuzhou had explored so far, marking the locations of various large and small islands.

She matched the names of several islands on the letter.

Record it again.

The scope of the search has been narrowing over the years.

The search for the Song family was not a blind search. Among the evidence that Qin Yi found that the Liu family had private soldiers, there were also several pirate dens, and those pirates occupied several islands each.

These islands are the places that Song Jin is most suspicious of.

But it is not easy to check them one by one.

Song Jin invested another sum of money and asked someone to send the money to Song Xiaocheng, asking him to pass it on to Shen Can to develop his power in the future and increase the strength of the garrison, such as weapons and equipment.

They replaced the old ones with new ones and also invested in building warships.

Song Jin's request was not high. He just wanted Dinghai Guard to protect the safety of the Jifang merchant caravan sailing in that area.

This request is not too much.

Shen Lieutenant General readily agreed, and every time Xing Lun went there, he would be warmly entertained, and his men would be arranged to escort him. When Governor Wang established the Dinghai Guard, the purpose was to eliminate pirates and restore peace to that sea area.

This goal does not conflict with Song Jin.

Song Jin wanted to use the government to secretly find someone.

Qin Chi did not make no arrangements, and at the same time, he arranged people to go in from various guard posts in Fuzhou. However, the couple had a tacit understanding and always did their own things, and would not interfere with each other's actions. Occasionally, they would cooperate for mutual benefit when necessary.

"Da Lang's wife?"

Little Liu stuck her head out of the door.

Song Jin looked up in surprise, "Second Aunt."

As she spoke, she unnoticeably folded up the charts and letters on the table and placed them under a pile of books.

Little Liu came in with a grin, "I've been so busy these past few days that I didn't have time to talk to you. How are you? Was your pregnancy tough? I heard from Aunt Yin that your pregnancy wasn't easy."

"It's okay, I just have a little backache now."

Song Jin said this lightly, but little Liu looked as if she understood it very well.

Mrs. Liu agreed and said, "I know this. It was the same when I was pregnant with those kids. It will be fine after the babies are born." Then she shared a lot of her pregnancy experiences with Song Jin.

Song Jin listened very carefully.

With someone listening to her, Xiao Liu became more and more excited. She talked about Song Xiu and said, "The fourth room still doesn't have a child. Mother-in-law is very anxious. She keeps urging the fourth sister-in-law. Do you know what the fourth sister-in-law says?"

"What do you mean?" Song Jin became interested.

Xiao Liu looked outside the house.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Seeing that there was no one around, she murmured quietly, "My fourth brother's wife said that this was the sin of my mother-in-law and uncle. They killed the child I should have had."

Song Jin couldn't help laughing, "That's true."

"Yes, after she said that, my mother-in-law dared not say a word." Little Liu saw the snacks beside her, she picked them up and ate them, saying as she ate, "My mother-in-law went to an old blind man to tell fortunes a few days ago, and asked if my uncle would have children in this life. Do you know what the old blind man said?"

"Second Aunt, what did the old blind man say?"

Song Jin handed the plate of candied fruit to Xiao Liu.

Little Liu smiled happily, took the plate and said mysteriously, "The old blind man said that my uncle was not destined to have children. He was supposed to have a son and a daughter, but I don't know how it ended."

Song Jin was startled.

Didn’t Qin Mingsong have a son and a daughter in his previous life?

Mrs. Liu curled her lips and said, "My uncle didn't give birth to any of his three children. Isn't that a dead end? There must have been two who could have been born, but they killed them themselves. I can't even blame them for this, but mother-in-law suddenly had the idea of ​​adopting a child."

It is hard to say whose child to adopt. If we talk about which branch has more children, it must be the second branch. But the children of the second branch are all grown up and can already remember things.

Xiao Liu's eyes fell on Song Jin's abdomen.

Song Jinmeng's pupils shrank, "Are you planning to take advantage of the baby in my belly?"

"I think there is a sign, but I don't know whether your baby is a boy or a girl."

Song Jin understood what Xiao Liu meant.

If it's a girl, there's nothing to worry about.

If it's a boy, he'll probably be targeted.

Song Jin just wanted to say that old Mrs. Liu was thinking of something nice. She would definitely not agree to adopt the child under Qin Mingsong's name.

That night, Qin Chi came back drunk. As soon as he got into bed after taking a shower, Song Jin mentioned to Qin Chi what Xiao Liu had said during the day.

Qin Chi's face darkened slightly. "This is just grandma's idea. Uncle won't agree to it. There's nothing wrong with his body. If he really wants a child, he can find a woman to give birth to it."

"You say, grandma, why doesn't she just calm down for a while?" Song Jin thought of Old Liu's old appearance, who looked even older than at this time in her previous life.

Qin Chi patted the back of her hand gently and said, "We have separated now. We have no right to interfere in these matters."

"Are you going to bring Huzi and Niuniu with you when you return to Beijing this time?"

"Leave the child with your parents. You know that mom won't go to Beijing with us." Qin Chi decided to keep the child with his parents. "Then we can leave a few more people here to watch over them."

Song Jin was reluctant to leave.

But she did not refute Qin Chi's decision.

Then the daily affairs proceeded in an orderly manner.

The clan first opened the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors, which was very grand, and all the clan members who were away came back one after another. Then there was a three-day banquet, and Qin Chi invited the teachers and classmates who had taught him in the past. Not only that, on the first day, the prefect and the county magistrate also came.

In the past, this remote mountain place was rarely visited by outsiders except the villagers. However, due to Qin Chi, the top scholar, the place was bustling with people and traffic.

It wasn't until half a month later that the situation gradually subsided.
