Thinking about all this, Lan Shanyang felt really depressed. It was like having a wife was the same as not having one. They could only see each other once every two weeks. Who could stand that?
"Of course I have concerns!" Qin Meiying gently pushed Lan Shanyang away and slowly stood up. She walked to the door and stared at the main hall outside, saying softly, "Shanyang, have you forgotten what we're really trying to do? Killing Hu Tianyong isn't the goal! If we wanted to kill him, we could have done it three years ago! But this isn't our ultimate goal. Our goal is to ensure that there will never be another Hu Tianyong, another Hu family!"
At this point, Qin Meiying slowly turned her head, her beautiful eyes looking at Lan Shanyang with a serious expression: "Besides, my Qin family hasn't even arrived yet!"
Upon hearing Qin Meiying mention this, Lan Shanyang's eyebrows twitched, and then he slowly stood up, walked over, and said softly, "Meier, there's something I need to tell you!"
"Hmm? Go ahead and say it. I'm listening!"
Lan Shanyang looked at Qin Meiying with a hint of hesitation, and after a while, she slowly said, "Today, the Qin family has come!"
Qin Meiying's eyes suddenly twitched, and she was startled, but then quickly returned to a calm and composed state.
"Have the Qin family arrived? Are they really the Qin family?"
Lan Shanyang nodded with a somewhat grave expression. "Actually, Lin Xue had already encountered it when she went to Jiangnan! However, I was afraid it was just false information! So, I didn't tell you! Over the years, I know that although you never asked, you've always been paying attention to this matter. I've also sent many people to investigate, but we haven't found any clues. I didn't want to disappoint you, so I didn't tell you everything about Lin Xue in Jiangnan!"
Qin Meiying glanced at Lan Shanyang, her eyes nodding slightly, before turning away. Trying to control the turmoil within her, she asked calmly, "What's your name? Boy or girl?"
"It's a girl! Her name is Qin Kou'er!"
Lan Shanyang could tell from Qin Meiying's expression that although she didn't say it, she was already completely concerned.
"Kou'er? Qin Kou'er!" Qin Meiying smiled slightly, her eyes calm yet warm. "What a beautiful name! However, there has never been anyone with this name in my Qin family!"
Lan Shanyang gently placed her hand on Qin Meiying's shoulder and said softly, "She is indeed a member of your Qin family! She wore the same purple dress you wore when you first met me when she went to court today. And I've confirmed the subtle pattern on it; it's definitely the work of your Qin family!"
Thinking about this, Lan Shanyang was still very dissatisfied with Qin Kou. Why should this girl wear his wife's clothes from back then? Didn't she know that only one person could look absolutely stunning in that dress? Didn't she know that this was Lan Shanyang's own little dream?
What a brat! Just like Lan Linxue, you're both brats!
Qin Meiying nodded gently: "Then there must be no mistake! I understand. The Qin family is full of traitors, how dare they still call her by her original name! What about this girl?"
This was the first time in so many years that Qin Meiying had heard that her own people were still alive. It would be impossible for her not to want to see them!
But she was even more restrained, suppressing all the desires in her heart. She wanted to wait, to wait for the child to come to her in person.
"Smart! Bold! Courageous and resourceful! If it weren't for them, your son would definitely be in jail by now!"
Then, Lan Shanyang recounted what had happened in the court that day.
After listening, Qin Meiying's eyes slowly revealed a look of relief. After all, she was still a member of the Qin family, and she had not lost the demeanor of the Qin family no matter where she was.
Lan Shanyang secretly watched his wife's expression from the side, afraid that if she suddenly heard the news, she would feel both bitter and sweet and upset.
"Mei'er, if you feel sad and want to cry or laugh, just show it. Don't make me worry so much!"
Qin Meiying turned her head, her eyes full of smiles, and took Lan Shanyang's hand: "The Qin family has left behind such a good heir, how could I want to cry? Don't worry, I won't get so excited that I'll kill myself!"
After saying that, Qin Meiying turned her head again, as if she could already see the memorial tablets outside, and said in a low voice, "I knew that God would not bear to see our Qin family be wiped out! Although I don't know who will survive in the end, there will always be someone who survives and then one day, overcomes all the hardships and comes to this glorious dynasty to seek justice for our Qin family! That day has finally come!"
Thinking of the scene when she learned that the Qin family had been wiped out, the tragic death of Qing'er in the flames for her sake, the inhuman life she had led for the past thirteen years, and the separation from her husband and children, tears finally welled up in Qin Meiying's eyes.
She endured and endured, until finally the Qin family came to collect their debt! This was all thanks to her arrangements from many years ago.
"Mei'er! My Mei'er has suffered!"
Lan Shanyang pulled Qin Meiying into his arms with boundless tenderness, gently raising his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"I know you've been waiting for the Qin family to come and take revenge! Now that she's here, you don't have to suffer anymore! After Qin Kou'er overturns the verdict and avenges the Qin family, I'll personally accompany you home so you can personally pay respects to your ancestors!"
Upon hearing this, tears welled up in Qin Meiying's eyes instantly, and she gave a bleak smile: "How can I have the face to pay respects to our ancestors! The entire Qin family died because of me, how can I have the face to go back! If it weren't for me, how would they have been targeted by Hu Tianyong!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Shanyang immediately turned Qin Meiying to face him: "Mei'er! What are you saying! Do you regret marrying me back then? Do you regret liking me? Do you not want me anymore?"
