Chapter 371 He Actually Knows Everything
Ran Qingxuan knew that some things seemed complicated, but were actually even more explosive behind the scenes.
Once the words were out, there was no way to take them back. Ran Qingxuan controlled his emotions and expression, and Qi Mingjing told him everything he knew.
"Ming He was still young back then, there were some things that they didn't need to know..."
"What do you mean I'm still young? Big brother, you're only three or four years older than me. Why don't I know anything about these things?"
Qi Mingjing's chest rose and fell slightly, and he didn't give him a good look. In front of Ran Qingxuan and the others, he said calmly: "Because you were too angry and impulsive at the beginning, if you knew it, it would only make the mansion uneasy."
Qi Minghe blushed, thinking back to his past self, it seemed like he was just like he said...
"I have changed now..." Qi Mingjing muttered to himself, shook his head and sighed.
"Master Qi, why do you say that Sister Qi's marriage was planned? Is it because Sister Qi didn't want to get married, so..."
"It's not that she doesn't want to get married, but because the person she wanted to marry was not her current brother-in-law."
"There were many men who wanted to marry my sister back then. My aunt-in-law saw a few who she was satisfied with. After exchanging horoscopes, she was very satisfied with the young master of the Zhao family in Fengxi City.
This family has been practicing medicine for generations and has had a lot of long-term cooperation and contact with the Qi family, so if they get married, they can be considered a good match. ”
"After the engagement letter was exchanged, the Zhao family sent the betrothal gifts to the door, and the matchmaker was there to talk and negotiate."
Ran Qingxuan frowned slightly. Logically, for such a major marriage, the parents should be present, and it shouldn't be just the matchmaker who shows up.
Feeling suspicious, Ran Qingxuan asked, "Then Mr. Zhao's family didn't say they would come to talk to your parents in person, so they just handed it over to the matchmaker?"
"It's the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. My eldest sister has met Mr. Zhao once, and she agreed, so the marriage is settled." After saying this, a worried look flashed across Qi Mingjing's face.
"On the wedding day, not long after the bridal sedan took the bride away, Madam Bao and the steward who escorted the bride came back in a hurry to report that the man my eldest sister was marrying was not Young Master Zhao from Fengxi City, but... Young Master Zhao from Han City."
Ran Qingxuan's brows were twisted into knots, and Qi Minghe was not much better. His whole body was trembling slightly, and he was suppressing the anger that was about to erupt.
"My parents and my second uncle were very anxious and angry when this happened, but my eldest sister was about to be carried into the Zhao family in Hancheng.
After my parents rushed over, before the ceremony was completed, they found the matchmaker and went over the whole matter in front of Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao. Only then did they realize that the matchmaker had mixed up the horoscopes of the two Mr. Zhaos. ”
Ran Qingxuan didn't believe in any accidental confusion. As a matchmaker, confusing the information was equivalent to destroying his own reputation. In this case, who would dare to ask this person for matchmaking in the future?
Qi Mingjing's face showed bitterness and his eyes revealed a sense of powerlessness.
“We are also familiar with the Zhao family in Hancheng. Madam Zhao runs several embroidery workshops, and Master Zhao is a doctor. Although his reputation is not as great as that of the Zhao family in Fengxi, his medical skills are better than theirs.
His family members are honest and kind, and Mr. Zhao is also a handsome man with a kind heart, but..."
"It's just that Mr. Zhao is a mute!"
Qi Minghe suppressed his anger, slammed the table with red eyes.
Ran Qingxuan's heart was pounding when he heard this, but it was no wonder that Qi Minghe was angry. Anyone who heard about this would feel regretful.
Putting aside her family background, she was originally going to marry a healthy person, but because of a mix-up in her horoscope, she ended up marrying a person with disabilities. No one could accept this.
"Then where does the calculation you mentioned come from?"
"I don't believe that the matchmaker did it accidentally. Afterwards, I found someone to pretend to be a matchmaker and gave the matchmaker two hundred taels of silver. Then she said that in addition to giving the eldest sister's horoscope, the third branch also gave Qi Ying's horoscope."
"After getting information from the matchmaker, I learned that the third wife had used her horoscope to propose marriage, saying that even if Mr. Zhao had a disease, it was not a big deal, as long as he had good character.
"Later, when the matchmaker introduced him to my uncle and his family, he only said he was Young Master Zhao. My uncle and his family also thought he was Young Master Zhao from Fengxi City. But when they got married, he became Young Master Zhao from Hancheng."
"Qi Ying and my eldest sister got married on the same day, and the bridal sedan of the Zhao family in Hancheng stopped at our house. My uncle and his family thought that the bridal sedan belonged to the Zhao family in Fengxi, so they let my eldest sister get on it."
"Good fellow, not only did they try to switch the dragon with the phoenix, but they also tried to confuse people. It's so shameful!" As soon as Ran Qingxuan heard it, he knew it was the third room's trick.
"Finally, when we asked for clarification and went there, Qi Ying and Mr. Zhao had already been married. The people from the third room insisted that they had taken Mr. Zhao's horoscope from Feng Xi in the first place, and the matchmaker also said that she had mixed it up.
"There is no turning back on this matter. In order to avoid criticism, my eldest sister can only marry Mr. Zhao from Hancheng..."
"No, I'm going to the Zhao family in Hancheng right now and ask them to divorce my eldest sister..."
Qi Minghe was so angry that he stood up and was about to walk out. Gu Yanchen grabbed him and pressed him down on the stool and said coldly.
"Don't you care about the Qi family's reputation? You will only make people poke holes in the Qi family's spine. And your sister, any rumors will drive her to death. In this case, do you still want to go?"
"What should I do? Am I going to let my elder sister live with a mute for the rest of her life?"
At the beginning, he was too busy having fun to go to his brother-in-law's house. Qi Huan went back to her parents' house by herself, and he didn't even ask any questions. Now thinking about it, he was such a bastard.
Qi Mingjing knew his temper so he kept calm and didn't say anything. Ran Qingxuan came to ask, so he must be targeting the third room.
Things turned out just as he had guessed. Ran Qingxuan became suspicious of the third room and was originally thinking about who to find to ask Wei Xue about her background. The appearance of Qi Huan gave her hope.
After all, Qi Minghe is not that meticulous, Qi Mingjing has been bedridden for a long time and is willing but unable to do anything, and the other elders in the Qi family may not agree, so the most suitable candidate can only be Qi Huan.
"The doctor asked about Aunt Bao, but he felt that this Aunt Bao was a little different?"
Qi Mingjing suddenly spoke, and Ran Qingxuan looked up at him.
"Why do you ask this?"
Qi Mingjing pursed his lips and said seriously: "Because that Nanny Bao is from the third room..."
Ran Qingxuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly some things that he had been unable to understand suddenly became clear to him.
"Do you know where your illness comes from?"
"Yes, that's why my elder sister..."
Qi Minghe stood up suddenly, walked to the bed and looked at Qi Mingjing in disbelief.
"Brother, what are you talking about?"
"Sit down first and don't get excited."
Qi Minghe stood there without moving. Qi Mingjing sighed slightly and then told the story.
"I only accepted tea from two people that day. One was Brother Mingyi, and the other was... Qi Ying!"
"As for who added something to the cup, my eldest sister actually told me a long time ago."
"Then why didn't elder sister tell uncle and the others?"
