The incident where you snatched the Chi family's child caused me to lose face in the clan.
Even now, you still want me to say that.
Have you considered this? Even if I succeed, how will I repay my clan after I pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi?
Even being an official doesn't necessarily mean you'll be rich.
The salaries of court officials are limited, unless you make me a corrupt official…”
When he said this, the look in his eyes as he looked at Zhuang Zilan was extremely unfriendly.
He used to think his sister-in-law was a good person, not only gentle and considerate, but also kind and intelligent, like a flower that understands your heart.
Now it seems that perhaps she was just pretending.
Otherwise, would a truly virtuous and intelligent person agree to snatch the child of a woman who has just given birth?
Even worse, he personally pushed Ms. Chi down, disregarding her life, just to force her to have a premature birth.
The more he thought about it, the more terrifying the woman in front of him seemed.
It was so terrifying that he felt he had been blind all along, and he wanted to beg for forgiveness from the innocent bystander.
Tell her he regrets it and that he has seen through his family's true colors.
Is it alright for them to live together as a family of three from now on?
However, Chi Yu had already left; she took her son and returned to Chijia'ao.
Even if he wanted to ask for forgiveness, the journey was too far for him to make.
None of the Qi family members present knew what Qi Mingyu was thinking at that moment.
Especially Old Man Qi!
When he heard Qi Mingyu say something about wanting him to become a corrupt official, he nonchalantly replied:
“Even if you really pass the imperial examination, I don’t expect you to stay in the capital as an official.”
Everyone says that being an official in the capital is good, but there are officials everywhere there, and any one of them could be the wife of some high-ranking official.
I'm thinking that after you pass the imperial examination, you'll be sent out to serve as an official.
Even if you are an honest and upright local official, merchants will still give you gifts without expecting anything in return.
We don't embezzle, but we can still accept gifts like ice and charcoal, birthday presents, and holiday gifts.
Qi Mingyu felt a deep sense of powerlessness at this moment and said frankly:
"I won't go to the clan chief. If you have money, just take it out. Tomorrow morning, I'll find a way to help you buy cotton."
When the time comes, Mom and my sister-in-law will take the clothes apart and put them inside.
As for the winter quilt, I slept with my father, and my mother slept with my sister-in-law.
These two thin blankets, tucked together, and with a charcoal brazier lit, we could manage.
After saying this, Qi Mingyu just stood there, waiting for Shen to bring the money.
Unfortunately, the people present pretended not to know. He waited for more than a quarter of an hour, but no one spoke. His mother, wrapped in a thin blanket, did not move.
He was so angry that he left without looking back.
He knew perfectly well that even if his parents had money, it wasn't much.
He's cold right now and can't even copy books.
If he wants to buy charcoal, rice, or flour, he can only use the remaining ten taels of silver.
He planned to use that money for next year's tuition.
Never mind, let's just take it out and use it.
If he still can't borrow from his classmates next year, he'll ask them for help!
At this moment, Qi Mingyu realized with absolute clarity that without Chi Yu, he truly had nothing left.
Since getting married, all his sense of superiority has vanished.
Now, even his pride has been thrown to the ground and trampled by his parents.
I don't know if there's any chance I can reconcile with Chi Yu.
If they could reconcile, he vowed that for the rest of his life, he would never let her down again!
The fish in the pond at Chijia'ao had no idea that her scumbag husband had already regretted it, and was regretting it so much it hurt his liver.
