Chapter 421 My Senior Brother Has No Money
As soon as Jin Congcong entered the room, he kept looking around like a thief.
"Brother, why are you feeling guilty? You didn't do it, so why are you feeling guilty?"
Someone swallowed and said, "Who said I felt guilty? What should I feel guilty about? I don't feel guilty at all. I'm just looking for a suitable place to sit..."
Bu Ruo hummed and pointed to the chair in the front: "You can sit here, it's the most conspicuous position, I guarantee she will see you as soon as she enters the door."
Jin Congcong walked over reluctantly and sat there, comparing herself with the Queen and Bu Ruoyi like a bullied young wife.
After Jin Congcong sat down, the woman was quickly brought in. Seeing the queen and Bu Ruo sitting on the main seat, she knelt directly on the ground.
"I... greet the Queen and the Princess."
"I beg the Queen and Princess to help me. I'm pregnant, but Dr. Jin refuses to marry me and is even avoiding me. He's forcing me to die."
With the Queen around, Bu Ruo naturally wouldn't bother leaving everything to the Queen to handle. She would just watch the fun. After all, she already knew what was going on after meeting this woman.
The Queen knew from Bu Ruo's expression that she wanted to be a hands-off boss, and could not help but sigh: "She is really a lazy person."
"Alright, let me ask you, how many months is your baby in your belly?"
"Tell the truth. You have to know that this is the imperial palace. If you don't tell the truth, I will immediately send the imperial physician to take your pulse."
The woman knelt on the ground, trembling. "Your Majesty, I...I am over two months pregnant."
Jin Congcong slammed the table and said, "You're still slandering me. I've only been in Beining for a month. How dare you blame me for your two-month pregnancy?"
The woman looked aggrieved: "How could you do this, Doctor Jin? This child is obviously yours. You've been in Beining Imperial City for less than a month, but this child wasn't born in the Imperial City."
"You stopped in Ningshui Town before arriving at the Imperial City. You went to a restaurant for a drink... That's when you had this child."
"You were drunk at the time, and you gave me twenty taels of silver to ask me not to tell anyone about this..."
"Your Majesty, I originally thought this was an accident. Since I've received the money, I'll just pretend it never happened. But...but the child in my belly cannot be without a father."
The woman took out twenty taels of silver from her purse and placed them on the ground. "This is the twenty taels of silver that Jin Xiao Shen Doctor gave me back then. I didn't spend it, so I'm returning it to Jin Xiao Shen Doctor now. I only ask for a name, to give my unborn child a father, so that he won't be laughed at by others in the future."
Bu Ruo didn't know whether others laughed or not, but she couldn't help laughing out loud. Even the little girl couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, leaving the queen confused.
"Hmm...Haha, Sister Yin, please continue, continue. I'm just laughing for a while."
The little girl couldn't hide her words and blurted them out directly: "How could you, a woman, do this? Your lies are full of loopholes. Even if I don't look at you, I know you are lying."
"First, my brother never drinks, not for any other reason, but because he has no money."
"Secondly, he's completely broke, so how could he give you twenty taels? If he had twenty taels, he would have gone to the King of Hell to report his name long ago, and there's no way he'd be sitting here."
"Third, my senior brother is always accompanied by secret guards when he goes out. Even he himself doesn't know about this. So you think that with the secret guards around, this kind of thing would never happen, regardless of whether you two are willing or not, not to mention getting you pregnant."
The woman cried bitterly: "My little princess, this silver was given to me by the divine doctor Jin. I didn't lie. He gave it to me personally."
"You said he was the only one without money, but he's by the princess's side and is also the last disciple of Doctor Du. How could he not even have twenty taels?"
Bu Ruo saw the Queen looking at her and nodded: "Jin Congcong really can't have silver on him. Even if he does, it can't exceed two taels, otherwise..."
The little girl understood instantly. Seeing the queen's confusion and the woman's disbelief, she ran over, picked up the twenty taels that the woman had put on the ground, stuffed it into Jin Congcong's hand, and ran away quickly.
After a few breaths...
With a bang, the chair that someone was sitting on broke.
The person wanted to hold the table, but the table tilted and the tea on it poured directly onto his head, scalding him and making him scream.
Guo Lu stood beside Bu Ruo without moving, but Shuang Yue, who was beside the queen, wanted to help. Just as she was jogging over, her foot slipped... and she kicked someone lying on the ground far away.
"Ah! Ouch, my waist... Little aunt, are you trying to clean up your grandfather's mess? You haven't used up all your special big sacks yet?"
"And this sister, thank you for your kindness, but...but it's better for you to stay away from me for now."
As Jin Congcong was speaking, he suddenly heard another crack. He looked up and saw that the beam in the hall, which had been in good condition, had suddenly developed a crack, which was getting bigger and bigger.
"Oh my..."
Someone quickly threw the silver in his hand far away, as if the silver was hot.
Strangely enough, after he threw the silver in his hand, the crack in the beam stopped expanding, leaving the queen and the woman stunned.
The little girl clapped her hands and looked at the woman kneeling on the ground with her mouth open. "See! My senior brother! There's no way! He! Has! Money!!"
The little girl spoke slowly and slowly, then moved closer to the Queen. She stretched out her little hand and patted her back like an adult, "Don't be afraid, Aunt Queen. This is all normal. You'll get used to it."
"But you must remember, never give Brother anything valuable, especially silver, otherwise he will be in great trouble, and in serious cases, people may even die."
"Although mother said that even if senior brother died, she could still bring him back from the underworld, but senior brother Bu Bu is timid. If he goes to the underworld for a day trip, he will probably be scared to death when he comes back. Then mother and grandfather will have to work hard again, and senior brother will definitely get a beating."
"Oh no, it was two beatings, one for grandpa and one for mom."
Bu Ruo explained with a smile, "Jin Congcong has something... that's hard to explain. I'll explain it to you in detail later. Anyway, the bottom line is that he can't have money. If he has money, he'll be unlucky, and in serious cases, his life will be in danger."
The Queen nodded silently. "Um... Shuangyue, go to the Clothing Bureau later and cancel the robes that I asked you to make for Dr. Jin a few days ago. Just make them for the Princess and the Little Princess."
