Chapter 40: Ginger is still spicy with age
"You're dreaming of asking me to apologize. I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I apologize?"
Yan Yunrui's eyes turned red with anger. He stood in the corner holding Yan Yunyue, looking like a poor child bullied by a bad guy.
Yan Yunyue cried even more pitifully, sobbing the whole time.
Ever since Qin Mingzhu woke up, Yan Yunyue has cried more than in the past six months.
The two children, who had always lived a happy and smooth life, suffered losses at the hands of Qin Mingzhu time and time again.
Qin Mingzhu raised the corner of her lips: "It's up to you, take him away."
"yes!"
Aunt Chen waved her hand and called two maids from the Marquis' Mansion to take the two children and walk into the yard.
Nanny Liu wanted to go up and help but was also held down.
These people are just toys that can be manipulated at will in the general's mansion.
There is no threat to Qin Mingzhu.
Seeing the annoying person leave, Qin Mingzhu finally smiled with satisfaction.
Turning her head to glance at her parents, she sat across the table with Chunhua, looked at the food on the table with a smile, and said with surprise: "These are all my favorites, thank you, Mom and Dad!"
As she spoke, she couldn't wait to pick up a mouthful of food and put it into her mouth.
There were really a lot of things happening on this day.
And the two children from the Yan family were making so much noise just now that both Mrs. Qin and General Qin were a little stunned for a moment.
Seeing her daughter come back and pack up the two children, Mrs. Qin stood up and walked over to Qin Mingzhu and sat down.
Seeing oil dripping from the corners of her mouth while she was eating, he smiled helplessly and picked up his handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth.
"Why are you in such a hurry, kid? The food is getting a little cold. I'll have someone heat it up."
Aunt Chen immediately asked someone to heat up the food.
A maid brought out the dishes on the table one by one.
"Don't bother. It's not that cold."
"That won't work. It's okay for you to eat it, but what about the baby in your belly?" Mrs. Qin strongly disagreed.
Qin Mingzhu had no choice but to watch her favorite chicken leg being taken away and could only put down her chopsticks and watch helplessly.
She is really hungry.
I didn't eat anything at noon.
Moreover, she always felt nauseous and vomited when eating at the Marquis' Mansion.
Even the aroma of the food at home is different. Qin Mingzhu feels that she can serve several big bowls in one breath!
There was no other way, so Qin Mingzhu could only take this opportunity to talk about business: "Mom, I want to tell you and Dad a few things."
Chunhua turned around and closed the door sensibly, then stood at the door to keep watch to prevent the host from talking being overheard.
Mrs. Qin was stunned and said with a smile: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
She was a little curious about what big news her daughter could be talking about so seriously.
Qin Mingzhu wiped her mouth, took a deep breath, and then looked at her parents with burning eyes.
The Qin family was dwindling, her father had never taken a concubine, and her mother had been weak since childhood, a disease she had brought with her at birth, so after giving birth to her, she was never able to get pregnant again.
The reason why the old man of the Xu family was willing to marry his beloved daughter to General Qin was because he valued General Qin so much. Originally, he was planning to let General Qin marry into his family. When Qin Mingzhu was born, it was said that she was called Xu Mingzhu for a while.
Therefore, in the huge Qin Mansion, there were only the Qin family of three, and the mansion was quite quiet.
"I blew up the treasury of the Marquis' Mansion."
The room suddenly became extremely quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.
General Qin and Madam Qin both widened their eyes, both showing stunned expressions.
After a long while, General Qin finally reacted: "Zhu'er, what did you just say? What exploded, and who did it?"
Qin Mingzhu looked at General Qin with a smile and said word by word: "I blew up the treasure house of the Marquis' Mansion!"
General Qin took a deep breath.
He said in disbelief, "Didn't they say the Marquis's treasury was attacked by thieves? How did it become like you blew it up?"
Mrs. Qin was more meticulous and quickly figured out the key.
"I was saying, it's not that easy for an outsider to blow up the Marquis's treasury. It turns out it was you, girl. Why did you blow it up for no reason? If people knew about this, I'm afraid..."
"It's okay. Qing'an is a spy from the Northern Frontier. With him taking the blame, it's not so easy to involve my daughter in this matter."
Mrs. Qin was very worried: "That's a bit risky. Are you sure the people you find are reliable?"
"Don't worry, mother. It was Uncle Chen who helped me move the things out of the treasury during the chaos. I've been in the mansion for almost a year now, so naturally I have some trusted subordinates who are worthy of trust."
"You have to keep an eye on those involved to prevent leaks, and..."
Mrs. Qin began to give Qin Mingzhu instructions and give her some advice.
General Qin was just shocked at this moment.
At this moment, seeing his wife and the other woman asking and answering questions, and talking so lively, he suddenly felt his scalp tingling.
"Madam, Pearl..."
The mother and daughter heard someone interrupting and looked at General Qin at the same time.
Madam Qin's eyes curved like the bright moon, as gentle and sweet as ever: "General, what's wrong? I just wanted to remind my daughter to see if she has made any mistakes..."
General Qin was silent for a moment. "Shouldn't I take care of my daughter and tell her not to do such dangerous things?"
"Hi……"
Madam Qin said indifferently, "My daughter has done what she did. As parents, we should think about how to help her solve the problem instead of scolding her. Besides, she is my daughter Xu Jiaoyue, don't I know her character? Since she blew up the Marquis's treasury, there must be a reason for doing so."
General Qin pondered for a moment and coughed lightly.
"Madam is right."
Mrs. Qin finally smiled and looked at her daughter. "So, those things are in your hands now. Do you want me to help you secretly exchange them all for silver?"
"Uh-huh."
Qin Mingzhu's eyes sparkled, and she felt that she had gained a lot from talking to her mother this time.
It turns out that old ginger is still spicy.
She felt that her wrists were still too tender.
When doing this, the plan was really too hasty. If Yan Fengxiao hadn't endorsed her, what she did would definitely be exposed.
Fortunately, Yan Fengxiao is also a part of her plan, which is the biggest guarantee.
Anyway, she is now holding the emperor hostage to control the princes. What if Yan Fengxiao doesn't help?
Humph...it depends on whether the baby in her belly agrees!
Unless he doesn't want his own son anymore!
Mrs. Qin looked relaxed and reached out to touch Qin Mingzhu's hair: "Leave this matter to mother. It will be done within a month. Just wait for the money to be collected."
"Don't worry, I still have a lot of use for that money anyway, so I plan to donate it all."
Madam Qin chuckled and said, "That's not impossible. Mother has adopted many children in various places. Your money will be of great use."
As expected, with her mother around, she doesn't have to worry about anything.
After all, even in her previous life, when her parents were alive, no one in the Marquis' Mansion dared to bully her openly.
He just took advantage of her soft nature and asked for some things from her openly or secretly.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to live in the Marquis' Mansion for so many years...
"By the way, Mom, Mingzhu has something else to tell you and Dad..."
When Qin's father and mother learned that their daughter had blown up the treasury of the Marquis' Mansion, they felt that they were prepared not to be surprised by anything they heard again.
General Qin even raised his eyebrows and asked first, showing his concern for his daughter.
"Zhu'er, if you have any problem, just tell Dad and I'll take care of it for you!"
Qin Mingzhu touched her belly and said, "The child in my daughter's belly is not Yan Qinghao's..."
