"Fourth brother, this is not your fault, don't blame yourself." Qin Yinnuan had a guilty look on her face, "Something that shouldn't have happened happened between Xiuzhe and me, which is why she is so angry and hates me. She wants to force me to leave by breaking off the relationship with the Qin family."
"Fourth brother, don't blame Qin Wu. If you want to blame someone, blame me."
Originally, Qin Yinnuan was going to marry the second prince, which would also put an end to Qin Wu's jealousy towards Qi Xiuzhe and Qin Yinnuan.
But now that the two of them have become like this, Qin Wu must be very angry.
Qin Suhu was about to collapse at that time because of Qin Yinnuan and Qi Xiuzhe's affair, and his heart ached with anger.
But both of them were framed, and he couldn't bear to be angry with Qin Yinnuan.
He stared at Qin Yinnuan for a long while, and then watched her bring him his favorite dishes. He gritted his teeth and took a long time to calm down.
"Xiao Nuan, please help me talk to my father. I want to go out."
"Fourth brother, I can help you plead with father, but please don't make father angry again." Qin Yinnuan served him food.
"You were wrong to burn the ancestral hall. You really need to change your temper. If you keep getting into trouble, will you always be punished by your father?"
...
...
"I can only plead for you once, but there won't be a next time."
Qin Su looked at Qin Yinnuan in a daze.
Suddenly he recalled how Qin Wu treated him in the past.
Qin Wu used to advise him not to always get into trouble and make his father angry, otherwise he would be beaten and hurt, and she felt bad for him.
But she would never say such serious words as asking for mercy for him just once.
In comparison, Qin Wu treated him better than Qin Yinnuan.
"Eat quickly. After you finish, I will go and plead with your father to get you out of confinement."
Seeing Qin Yinnuan's caring eyes, Qin Su's slight dissatisfaction with her disappeared.
How could he feel that Qin Yinnuan was inferior to Qin Wu?
Qin Wu has no ideas of her own, she just sticks to them and revolves around them.
Qin Yinnuan is definitely different from Qin Wu. She has her own ideas, a quick mind, and is quirky, cheerful and kind. She said this just because she doesn't want him to be punished if he does something wrong.
"Thank you, sister."
"Don't be polite to me. You are my fourth brother after all."
"Oh, I'm out of charcoal in my room. Now that you're in charge, please have someone bring me some charcoal. I'm feeling so cold..."
Qin Yinnuan's face froze for a moment, and she said, "Fourth brother, we are running low on charcoal. I am trying to find a way. I will have someone deliver charcoal tonight."
Qin Sujin and Qin Xiang are not at home during the day except during rest days. Charcoal is only needed at night.
Qin Sumu's health was not good to begin with, he was afraid of the cold, and he needed charcoal to sustain himself all day long.
As for Qin Suhuo, he is strong and healthy, so it doesn't matter if he gets frozen, but it is not possible to give him carbon all day long.
Nowadays charcoal is more expensive than gold. Burning charcoal is equivalent to burning gold.
If she had known that there would be a shortage of charcoal this year, she would have stockpiled more charcoal long ago. Not only would she have made money from the charcoal, but she would also have prevented the hot pot restaurant from being short of charcoal, causing worse business and even losses.
"How could it be?" Qin Su said almost subconsciously, "Qin Wu had already prepared charcoal for the winter when autumn came. There should be more, not less. How could there be a shortage of charcoal at home?"
These words made Qin Yinnuan look a little embarrassed.
But she still replied, "The hot pot restaurant was running low on charcoal, so I used some of the charcoal at home to use at the hot pot restaurant."
"Fourth brother, you won't blame me for not bringing you charcoal in time, right?"
Seeing that Qin Yinnuan encountered difficulties because of the lack of charcoal in the hot pot restaurant, Qin Suhuo did not blame her, "The hot pot restaurant business is so good, you can use the charcoal at home, how can I blame you."
"Besides, if this restaurant falls into your hands, it will have good business and make a lot of money. Qin Wu can't blame you for our decision to let you turn the restaurant into a hot pot restaurant. After all, it was she who didn't run it with all her heart."
By saying this, Qin Su might have also wanted to reduce his guilt towards Qin Wu.
It was he who first suggested that Qin Yinnuan convert the restaurant into a hot pot restaurant, and later his eldest brother agreed.
If Qin Yinnuan couldn't prove that she could run the shop better than Qin Wu, it would be a slap in his face, proving that he was wrong and making him unable to raise his head in front of Qin Wu.
There is a shortage of charcoal now, but it won't always be a shortage. Charcoal merchants will definitely deliver charcoal for sale in the future. It's just a matter of saving some charcoal. He just needs to use less charcoal.
"I won't use charcoal during the day, I'll use it at night to get through the crisis of your hot pot restaurant first." Qin Suhuo patted her shoulder.
"Fourth brother supports you, you must not let fourth brother down. This hot pot restaurant is doing so well and making so much money, you must run it well and don't let Qin Wu laugh at you."
Qin Su might have thought that he should let Qin Wu see her situation clearly first, and then she would definitely come back to beg the Qin family and him.
After all, they had gone through so many hardships together, and she almost lost her life to protect her. He didn't believe that she really didn't want him as her fourth brother.
As long as Qin Yinnuan is more outstanding, she knows that she cannot compare to Qin Yinnuan, so she understands that everything he does is right, and asking her not to target Qin Yinnuan is for her own good.
Over time, she will figure it out.
Thinking of this, Qin Suhu's mood improved a little.
"Fourth Young Master, the Prime Minister asked you to go to the main hall." When the butler came to inform Qin Suhuo, he had just finished eating.
"Fourth brother, I have also secretly talked to father about letting you out these past two days. When you see father later, you must sincerely admit your mistakes. I will plead for you, and father should not keep you in solitary confinement anymore."
Qin Yinnuan stood up and smiled at him, asking him to give in.
Qin Su was a person who didn't like being restrained, and he didn't want to stay in solitary confinement at home.
He nodded and listened to Qin Yinnuan.
If it were Qin Wu, Qin Su would definitely scold her and say arrogantly, how could I be someone who gives in so easily.
I would rather have my legs broken than bend my knees.
But Qin Wu was not around, so he confronted his father with confidence. No one was stupid enough to stand in his way like her and let her be beaten by his father together with him.
Qin Wu and he have been together for more than ten years since childhood.
But Qin Yinnuan had only been home for more than half a year, and he couldn't bear to let her protect him and be punished by his father.
Qin Suhuo was kneeling on the ground, and the prime minister was sitting on a high seat, listening to his obedient words of self-reflection, his eyes fell on Qin Yinnuan again.
Although his resolute and dignified face showed no expression, the look he gave Qin Yinnuan showed satisfaction.
Qin Su was impulsive and stubborn, no matter how big or small his temper was. If you said something to him, he would rather be punished than admit his mistake.
Before, Qin Wu only helped him and spoiled him.
It wouldn't be a big deal if the man hit her a few times, but he really loved Qin Wu at that time, and he didn't dare to hit her hard, so he could only let Qin Suhu go gently.
After being beaten, he didn't admit his mistake, so it was over.
Only Qin Yinnuan could convince Qin Suhuo, making him realize where he was wrong and know that he should correct it and stop being angry with him.
"Father, you have punished Fourth Brother, and his injuries haven't healed yet. He knows he was wrong now, and he has said he will correct his mistakes in the future. Please forgive him, don't be angry anymore, and put him in solitary confinement, okay?"
Seeing Prime Minister Qin looking over, Qin Yinnuan immediately pleaded for mercy.
Seeing this, Prime Minister Qin gave way and said, "If your sister hadn't begged for you, I would have broken your legs with your bastard temper!"
"Fourth brother will never do that again." Qin Yinnuan quickly gave Qin Suhu a look.
"Father, I won't do it again." Qin Su was not very happy in his heart, but he still promised.
"Okay, the confinement is lifted." At this point, Prime Minister Qin said, "You are already an adult, it's time for you to get married."
"I have arranged a marriage for you. It's with the daughter of Magistrate Yu, Miss Yu Er. I'll have the matchmaker come to your house in a few days to propose marriage to you. Let's set a date for the wedding as soon as possible."
"What!" Qin Suhuo stood up suddenly after hearing this.
