Chapter 99 The Play of Selling a Child

Qin Shu held Qin Xixi in her arms and got into the carriage with a complicated expression on her face.

Qin Xixi still didn't understand why. She just felt that she wanted to eat horse meat but didn't get to eat it. Her mother was inexplicably persuaded by the little grandson of the emperor to let her eat more meat!

Although Xixi didn't know why the little grandson of the emperor said that, she was very happy.

The little grandson of the emperor was worthy of being her newly adopted little brother. He helped her seek benefits so quickly!

After Qin Shu got into the carriage, she held her forehead helplessly.

She couldn't help but poke Xixi's head.

"You little glutton, why do you love to eat so much!"

Little Xixi blinked aggrievedly.

"Mother hasn't treated you badly in the mansion. If others see this, they will think that mother didn't let you eat enough on purpose."

Qin Xixi pouted innocently.

Her cheeks were puffy, which made people want to poke them.

Seeing Xixi so cute, Qin Shu couldn't bear to blame her.

She found it funny again, and laughed out loud while poking Xixi's head.

"Oh, what is mother going to do with you?"

Xixi didn't understand what her mother meant by saying so much, but she thought that after her younger brother talked to her, mother didn't want to give her meat!

If Qin Shu heard this, she would probably be furious and want to throw Qin Xixi out of the carriage.

The two waited for a while and finally got home. Qin Shu carried Xixi back to the yard.

After a while, a servant came to report.

"Master, the Wang family really stayed in the teahouse for the whole afternoon today. The storyteller who was just arranged to go to the teahouse told the story of the Wang family selling their son according to what you said."

Qin Xixi pricked up her ears when she heard

this. Is mother going to attack the Wang family?

Sure enough, Qin Shu nodded when she heard this.

"Did they have any reaction?"

The servant looked down on the Wang family.

"I don't know if the Wang family is guilty of being a thief. As soon as they heard the storyteller in the teahouse, they couldn't sit still. When the teacher talked about recognizing relatives again, the two of them went up to fight with him like crazy. But the teacher was not a weak scholar. The two Wang family members didn't get any good results. Instead, they were slapped a few times and had a lot of hair pulled out."

Hearing the wolfish look of the Wang family couple, Qin Shu also frowned with some disgust.

"They are interesting. They dare to do it but dare not let others say it. If others say it, they will make a big fuss, for fear that others don't know that they sold the child."

Qin Qixuan happened to hear this when he came.

"After all, they came from the countryside and have never been to school. If they still use their previous style in the capital, they will naturally be criticized."

Qin Shu nodded after hearing

this. "They have begun to learn the habits of the nobles in the capital and started to go to the teahouse to taste tea. They have completely forgotten where they came from. Do they think that the Qin family is so easy to deceive?"

The servant added at this time.

"Someone just reported that the Wang couple has been kicked out by the teahouse manager, and their faces and names have been recorded, so the gatekeepers will chase them away every time they see them."

Qin Shu was very satisfied with the result.

"Very good. Starting tomorrow, you don't have to keep an eye on where the Wang couple goes. Just arrange people to go to various stores to tell them about the Wang family selling their products. Also, keep a close eye on the opera troupe, and arrange the show according to the previously discussed arrangements."

The servant took the order and left.

Xixi admired her mother's foresight.

[As expected of her, mother, this has made it impossible for the Wang family to survive in the capital. Even if they are chased out of the mansion in the future, they will have no power to rely on! ]

Qin Qixuan also thought that Qin Shu's method was brilliant.

Qin Shu curled her lips and walked out with Qin Xixi in her arms.

"Let's go and see what's going on."

Qin Shu and a few others came to the garden and sat down to eat cakes.

This is the place that the Wang couple must pass by when they return to the guest room.

Sure enough, after a while, the two of them passed by with dust on their faces.

The two were very embarrassed to see Qin Shu, and hurriedly covered their faces and greeted her, looking like they didn't want to say more.

Qin Shu insisted on talking about something else.

She pretended to be surprised and kept the Wang couple.

"What's wrong with you two?"

Although the Wang couple tried their best to hide it, the torn clothes, messy hair, and the faint bloodstains on their faces all proved that they had encountered something extraordinary today.

Mrs. Wang put her hands down embarrassedly when she heard this, and did not dare to tell anyone about the fight in the teahouse.

"This... Thank you for your concern, Master. I just fell down accidentally, so don't worry about it."

Qin Shu showed a puzzled expression.

"How could two people fall together, and fall so hard?"

She pretended to be concerned and stepped forward to touch the bloodstain on Mrs. Wang's face.

"It hurts on my face, I'm afraid it will leave a scar!"

Mrs. Wang was a little flustered after hearing her words, and subconsciously touched her face.

"Hey, Mrs. Wang, I don't think your wound is scratched by a stone, but rather... by someone's nails!"

Qin Shu widened her eyes and said in surprise.

This sentence made the Wang family couple sweat profusely, and they waved their hands repeatedly.

"What's the matter, we don't know anyone in the capital, how could we fight with others?"

Qin Shu nodded.

"That's right, you two are kind people, how could you have conflicts with others?"

Mrs. Wang was sweating coldly when she saw that she had been fooled.

Unexpectedly, Qin Shu changed the subject and talked to them about Qin Qi Ting.

"Alas, the Qin family's economy has been tight recently. I have always known that you two are kind people. You have eaten and drunk so much in your house these days, and you have a son who is being raised by our Qin family."

Qin Shu sighed.

"Even though our Qin family has such a large business, we can't afford to support so many people!"

Mrs. Wang could hear

the hidden meaning in Qin Shu's words. She had a bad feeling. "Master, do you mean to drive us out?"

Qin Shu smiled and shook her head.

Before the Wang couple could breathe a sigh of relief, Qin Shu continued.

"Why would I drive you two out? It's just... the Qin Mansion has been providing you two with food and drink for so long, shouldn't you also give something in return?"

Mrs. Wang's eyes widened when she heard this.

"Reward? We are penniless. We have wasted time and money to find our son. How can we give you a reward!"

Mr. Wang, who has always been a man of few words, couldn't help but agree at this time.

"That's right. You Qin family is a wealthy family, but now you say you can't support two of us. What does that mean?"

Mrs. Wang seemed to have caught Qin Shu's handle, and her eyes became fierce. "That

's right. You Qin family just dislike us, don't want to support us, and want to go back on your word!"

"If this happened during the day, we should let the people around here see how the Qin family bullies others by taking advantage of their power. This is how they treat their benefactors!"

Mrs. Wang's voice was very loud, as if she wanted everyone in the capital to hear her.

Qin Shu seemed very surprised.

"Benefactor? When did you have this illusion that you were the benefactors of the Qin family!"
