Qin Hongfei spent most of this year in Qin City. She stayed there for a week from the time she came back from hospital to the time she was discharged.

Aunt Qin called several times and wanted to come over, but was dissuaded by Qin Hongfei. Not only did she dissuade her from coming, but she also asked her to watch over the other members of the Qin family and not let them run around: "Aunt, it's very chaotic right now. If someone comes to your house and gives you something, don't accept it." The Yuan family

was investigated. The Yuan family has a complex network of relationships based on many years of experience. Not to mention the distant ones, the Shao family, which was the first to be affected, was secretly investigated, not to mention other industries.

Everyone was in danger at this time, but it was inevitable that some people would want to take shortcuts to get information -

Tang Qing'er said that many people had been running to the Tang family openly or secretly recently.

The same was true for the old Qin family.

Aunt Qin said, "Many people have sent gifts under the guise of New Year's greetings, but your grandmother gave all the gifts to Captain Sun."

The gift-givers were both in the name of the First Institution and in the name of patients, so it was hard to tell who was real, so Grandma Qin simply gave all the gifts to Captain Sun, and the gift-giving stopped.

Aunt Qin said, "Don't worry, we have a plan."

The two elders of the Qin family were not stupid. When Qin Yan was a foster child, she did not take advantage of this matter, for fear of causing trouble for her grandson.

Now the three members of the Qin family, Qin Yan, Qin Yun, and Qin Hongfei, are in the same situation. Grandma Qin is afraid that her words and deeds will bring trouble to them, so she is very careful in what she says and does. It's not that there are no people who try to get close to the Qin family with ulterior motives. They sent a box of cash in the name of sending gifts, but when Grandma Qin saw it, she reported it.

The children are running in front, and the adults can't help but must not drag them down.

This is what Grandma Qin meant.

Qin Hongfei felt that the ideological awareness of the Qin family was still very high.

Xia Lu told her daughter, "Although your grandparents have old-fashioned ideas, they always love their children, including the fifth room. Even now, your grandparents are secretly supporting those three children."

Qin Hongfei raised her eyebrows, "Does mom mind?"

She hasn't paid attention to the affairs of the fifth room for a long time.

She knows that Qin Wanwan graduated and is in the entertainment industry.

She doesn't know Qin Qing and Qin Nian - she doesn't know Ye Ru and Qin Hu, so she just heard about the support from the two elders of the Qin family.

Xia Lu looked at her daughter and said, "Your grandmother told me about supporting them."

This surprised Qin Hongfei.

Xia Lu said, "Your grandmother said that you are narrow-minded. If we keep it secret and you find out, it might harm the three children, so she told her directly. I said, as long as they don't use the eldest wife's influence to seek benefits for them, I won't interfere with their financial support. And if they have the ability to make a name for themselves, the eldest wife will not interfere."

She paused.

She said, "A Fei, have you always been curious, the first wife suffered so much injustice, but why didn't mom take you away from the Qin family?"

Qin Hongfei said, "Isn't it to wait for Dad?"

Xia Lu said, "Waiting for your dad is waiting no matter where, this is one of the reasons..."

"That was half a year after your dad left. I kept running around looking for your dad, and I had a quarrel with the fifth wife. I had a fever when I came back from Qin City and couldn't cook for you. You and your sister were very sensible and wanted to take care of me, but you didn't have the ability to do that when you were so young..."

Oh, not young, but Qin Jiangke loved his wife and daughter at that time, how could he let the children do such housework.

So Qin Fei and Qin Hongfei had no living foundation at all, and Xia Lu was sick, and there was chaos.

Because of the conflict with the Fifth House, Concubine Qin and Qin Hongfei were unwilling to go to the old house.

"After you and Concubine Qin went to school that morning...your grandmother came over."

Xia Lu still remembered that she was very sick at the time, but she also remembered that she had to cook for the children and buy vegetables and rice for the family. However, she felt dizzy soon after she stood up in a daze and wanted to sleep for a while.

I saw my mother-in-law coming when I was in a daze.

At that time, Grandma Qin saw that there had been no movement in the first room for several days. She heard from the neighbors that Xia Lu seemed to be ill in the past two days, and there were only two children in the family who knew nothing. So she went to buy rice and oil and put them in the first room. She wanted to leave and leave, but she saw that Xia Lu had a severe fever, so she ran around to buy fever-reducing medicine to reduce her temperature. She also cleaned up the kitchen, left some easy-to-cook pasta, and bought fish and vegetables.

In the next few days,

there were always meat, fish, and pork bones in the first room, all of which were processed.

Later, there was an extra box of milk.

Qin Hongfei remembered these things, but she always thought that it was Ms. Xia who went out to buy them while having a fever, but it turned out not to be the case.

Xia Lu said, "Your grandma did a lot of things behind my back, but she didn't want to talk about it."

"So I always pretended not to know. I was sad about your father's death, but she was no less sad than me. Compared with Qin Hu, your grandpa and grandma were actually more proud of your father, but they were not good at expressing it. You may not say that she loved us, but at least she protected the fifth room when I was in the most difficult time and said a lot of unpleasant things. But she scolded the first room while supporting the first room. Otherwise, mom wouldn't have been able to hold on for so many years."

Xia Lu was able to make a complete decision with the Xia family not to return to the Xia family because the Xia family had done enough, so she didn't need to be grateful or nostalgic. She

was constantly with the Qin family, not because of Qin Jiangke.

It was because Grandma Qin was a bad mouth and partial - but every time when she felt it was the hardest to give up on herself, her parents-in-law would lend a hand from time to time. They had done many injustices to the eldest wife, but compared to those injustices, Xia Lu remembered more the helping hands they had extended to her and her daughter in the most difficult times.

"Mom's biological parents never lent a hand to Mom in the most difficult times. Your grandpa and grandma and I have no blood relationship, but they helped me in the most difficult times. So even if your grandma did something excessive later, as long as she didn't cross the bottom line, I could tolerate her." Xia Lu said slowly.

If it wasn't because of the gratitude, Xia Lu would have turned her face against them long ago.

"But even so, I will not forgive what Ye Ru did..." Xia Lu said, "I will not care if your grandparents can use their own money to help those children. After all, they are grandchildren. She didn't give up on us back then, let alone now. But if she uses your and Xiaoyan's identities to help them plan for a future, I will not allow it. That is the bottom line."

After a pause,

Xia Lu said, "Fei! When can we know the whereabouts of your father?"

Qin Hongfei was stunned, and then looked at Ms. Xia in surprise.

Xia Lu looked at her calmly and said, "I read your father's diary. He is dead. I heard from Sun Shu that your father died while saving people. There were people there at the time, so they should have collected your father's body, right?"

Qin Hongfei took a deep breath, "They should have, but mom, you have to wait patiently for a few more days. I will take you to find your father's body after the case of Yuan Dazhen is closed."
