Chapter 373 Showing Weakness

"Mother, I know I was wrong."

After Qin Qixuan admitted his mistake, the others followed suit and admitted their mistakes sincerely, their voices full of sincerity.

"Mother, we know we were wrong. No matter what happens in the future, we will report to you as soon as possible."

For a while, the study was filled with the voices of admitting mistakes and comforting.

The atmosphere in the yard was slightly eased because of their repeated apologies.

Of course, Xiao Xixi is still a different firework from her brothers.

She looked at Qin Shu with a pair of smiling eyes, trying to make Qin Shu not angry by being cute, and it was obvious that she wanted to do it again in the future.

Xiao Xixi has always been like this, and Qin Shu can't do anything about her. As long as Xixi acts cute, Qin Shu has no way to stop her and can only let her do whatever she wants.

Therefore, she selectively ignored the cute little Xixi and looked up at the children she had raised, her eyes full of complex emotions. She was proud of their growth and integrity, but also worried about their adventures.

She sighed and her voice trembled a little.

"Qixuan, do you know what I should do if you don't come back tonight?"

Qin Shu had been stern all night, and only at this time did she show her weak side in front of the children.

In fact, she was very worried tonight and even sent people out to investigate, for fear that they would make some mistakes.

Let alone all the children, if any of them got hurt or something went wrong, Qin Shu would never be able to let it go for the rest of her life. Qin Shu thought so and couldn't help crying.

This was the first time that her mother cried in front of them.

Qin Qixuan raised his head, feeling mixed emotions.

Over the years, when the Qin family encountered crises, her mother didn't cry, but shouldered all the burdens. When her mother knew that her scumbag father had betrayed her, she didn't cry, and she even quickly sorted out her emotions and didn't worry about her scumbag father.

But when she almost lost them, her mother cried.

Qin Qixuan felt bad, and the other children felt bad too. They suddenly felt that they were really worthless and made their mother so worried. Even the always strong mother cried.

Qin Qixuan then stepped forward and held Qin Shu's hand tightly.

"Don't worry, mother. No matter what happens in the future, I will tell you the first time. Your son will also protect the Qin family and my family."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Looking at the concerned eyes of the children, Qin Shu knew that she was a little out of control. She had never been so vulnerable in front of the children, so Qin Shu only cried for a short while, and soon calmed down with the comfort of the children.

She knew that they were all for the good of the Qin family, but her worries never diminished.

Qin Shu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and tried to make herself look stronger.

"Okay, let's just pretend that what happened today never happened." Qin Shu's voice was a little hoarse, "I know you are all good kids, but remember, don't take such risks again."

After calming down, Qin Shu seemed to have become the strong woman who made the Qin family's business bigger and stronger, and her eyes became firm again.

What happened tonight was ultimately because of Zhao Zemo's feelings for Wen Yanya. Qin Shu understood that if she wanted to protect the Qin family and Wen Yanya, the best way was to arrange the marriage between Qixuan and Yanya as soon as possible, and let Yanya become the daughter-in-law of the Qin family, so that there would be the best outcome to the greatest extent.

Thinking of this, she turned her head and looked at Qin Qixuan.

"Qixuan, Yan Ya suffered so much injustice this time, in the final analysis, it's all because of us. Jinnan Palace is really difficult to deal with, even if it's us, we can't get any good results against Jinnan Palace. So you should prepare for your marriage with Xiao Ya as soon as possible."

"Although Zhao Zemo is a bastard, Jinnan Palace dare not do too much in public. Even if Zhao Zemo still misses Xiao Ya, he will not let it go. As long as Xiao Ya becomes the daughter-in-law of our Qin family, Zhao Zemo will not brazenly snatch our Qin family's people."

Qin Qixuan thought so in his heart.

On the way back, he had already thought about the cause and effect.

As long as he married Wen Yan Ya, Wen Yan Ya would be on the Qin family's genealogy. Being listed in the Qin family genealogy means she is a legitimate daughter-in-law of the Qin family. This is the best way to protect her.

After all, the emperor really doesn't care about the life and death of a commoner girl. However, Wen Yanya is included in the family genealogy. If Zhao Zemo dares to touch her again, he will have to consider whether the emperor will consider intervening and helping the daughter-in-law of the Qin family. Qin Qixuan

nodded.

"Don't worry, mother, this matter has been prepared years ago. I will let Yanya enter the Qin family genealogy as soon as possible and become the daughter-in-law of the Qin family."

Qin Shu nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, I'm relieved now. Although Zhao Zemo is very powerful, he doesn't dare to rob our Qin family openly."

So many things happened in one night. Not to mention the other children who went out to play in the dark night, even Qin Shu felt very tired. The children didn't need to be present for the next thing, so Qin Shu looked at the others and waved.

"You all go back and take a look at your injuries. This is the end of tonight. Don't take such risks in the future."

The other children left one after another, leaving only Qin Qixuan and Qin Shu in the study.

Qin Shu looked at Qin Qixuan, and there was still a big stone in her heart that she hadn't let go.

"How's your investigation into the spy going?"

There haven't been a few good days since the New Year. One thing has not been settled, another has come. The matter of the third brother has not been resolved, and Qin Qixuan has run into problems again. Qin Shu just remembered the spy at this time.

"This spy needs to be handled carefully. If the secrets of the mansion are leaked, he will not be free in the mansion in the future."

Qin Qixuan only realized at this time that his mother did not mobilize many people tonight, but only called some confidants. I'm afraid this is why she didn't find their traces so quickly.

In fact, Qin Qixuan already knew the truth of the matter a long time ago, and his people had already found relevant evidence, and even checked the man's movements.

Qin Qixuan buried his thoughts in his heart for a day and did not tell Qin Shu for a long time.

On one hand, Qin Qixuan was tied up by Wen Yanya's affairs and had no time to deal with the traitor.

On the other hand, he was afraid that Qin Shu would be unable to bear the news.

It's not that she couldn't bear it, but she would feel uncomfortable.

However, this kind of villain still needs to be carefully guarded against. Even if my mother doesn't want to believe it, the fact is still true.

So Qin Qixuan no longer hesitated, but directly told Qin Shu the truth he had investigated.
