Chapter 123 Impossible
"Brother, look at what sister-in-law is saying. I'm doing this for your own good and Ning An's. Why waste such a large sum of money? It's no different from throwing it away with water. You shouldn't waste money like this! Besides, Ning An is so stupid - well, I mean he's honest and not very smart. What if he gets bullied? You don't feel sorry for him, but as his aunt, I do!"
"Brother, don't let him go to this county school. Let him come back."
Mrs. Qin sneered and was too lazy to say anything. She suppressed her anger and looked at her husband coldly.
Master Qin was also not too happy: "Your sister-in-law and I have to consider Ning'an's future. Going to the county school can at least help him learn something, make some friends, and make him look good when he tells others about it. That's all."
"But--"
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Qin Xiuhe saw that her elder brother was really angry, so she didn't dare to say anything more.
She was unwilling to give up, so she went to the county school herself and tried to coax Qin Ning'an out. She persuaded him to say that he didn't want to go to the county school and wanted to play, and promised him many delicious and fun things.
But Qin Ning'an really disliked her.
Qin Ning'an has difficulty in learning knowledge, but he is not stupid. In addition, his parents love him and teach him well. He is not a rude and arrogant playboy. He knows everything he should know at this age.
His aunt didn't love or like him at all. She always said he was stupid, always made fun of him, and always said he was not as good as his cousins. When she saw him being bullied, teased, and having his things stolen by his cousins, his aunt always laughed and said he was not smart enough and could not do anything well.
He simply didn't like what his aunt said.
He never liked it every time his aunt brought his cousins home.
On the contrary, he likes the county school.
Although he hardly understood anything the teacher said in his lectures, it did not stop him from attending classes with Liang Mingxuan, Lu Xiao and others. He just found it interesting.
Although Lu Xiao often scolded him for being stupid, it was different from the way his aunt scolded him. Lu Xiao would also help him copy his homework, and if someone wanted to play a trick on him, Liang Mingxuan and Lu Xiao would help him.
Anyway, he likes the county school very much.
Of course he likes home too.
But his aunt and cousins came again, so he didn't want to go home anymore.
Qin Xiuhe came twice and brought him a lot of delicious food. She used all kinds of sweet words to please him. Qin Ningan accepted the delicious food but refused to listen to a single word of her sweet words, which made Qin Xiuhe very angry.
She persisted and wanted to come again, but was discovered by the Qin family's nanny, who told Mrs. Qin.
Mrs. Qin was furious and told her husband.
Mr. Qin was also very angry and questioned Qin Xiuhe with a cold face.
Qin Xiuhe felt guilty and tried to argue, "I'm concerned about Ning'an. I'm worried that he's being wronged over there. When has Ning'an ever suffered such hardship? When I think of him being alone there, with no food to eat or a good place to live, and not even a servant to serve him, I can't feel at peace. As his aunt, am I wrong to care about him?"
Master Qin didn't know what to say.
Mrs. Qin was also very angry.
"Don't tell me you don't know what the county school is. It's a place so many people fight to get in. If people knew that we were talking about this behind our backs, Master, just think about what Lord Lu would think!"
Master Qin's face turned cold: "Xiu He, Ning An's affairs are decided by us as parents, please don't interfere anymore."
Madam Qin sneered, "Other matters are fine, but if someone gets involved and causes Ning An to be unable to attend the county school, we'll be your enemies from now on, and you'll never be allowed to visit the Qin family again! I mean what I say! Even if I have to bear a reputation of being intolerant, I'll accept it!"
Qin Xiuhe was furious and said, "Brother, look at what my sister-in-law said!"
Mrs. Qin no longer wanted to tolerate her: "What did I say wrong? Let's talk it out."
"You are clearly bullying me with all your words!"
"Wouldn't it be fine if you just stayed out of it?"
“.”
Qin Xiuhe was almost furious.
Master Qin said slowly, "Xiu He, your sister-in-law and I have the same opinion on this matter."
"Okay, okay! I really didn't expect you to become like this, big brother! You didn't appreciate my kindness, but instead made malicious assumptions. You actually think this about me! Am I so vicious? I'm also a member of the Qin family. Don't I hope Ning An is well?"
Qin Xiuhe covered her face and ran out crying.
Mr. Qin wanted to chase after her, but when he saw his wife wiping her tears with a handkerchief, he held back.
He sighed: "Perhaps we really misunderstood Xiu He and shouldn't have said such harsh words."
Mrs. Qin said with tears in her eyes, "There's nothing wrong with making things clear. It's better than becoming enemies in the future, don't you think?"
Master Qin was speechless, and this made sense.
But he still gave in to his sister, and comforted her with some explanations. However, there was absolutely no room for change regarding his son's enrollment in the county school.
Qin Xiuhe was secretly resentful, but she didn't dare to have any evil thoughts about it.
She didn't think Qin Ning'an could learn anything in the county school, but Qin Ning'an was out of her control from then on, and she could no longer let her two sons suppress him. This was the most important thing.
Qin Xiuhe then said that her eldest son Mo Tianyao also wanted to go to the county school, and asked her eldest brother to pay money to help Tianyao get in.
"They are cousins. With Tianyao around, he can take care of Ning'an. If someone bullies Ning'an, Tianyao can help. This way we can feel more at ease. After all, Ning'an is not a very smart kid - uh, I mean, he is too honest and simple-minded, so he is easy to be bullied and cheated."
Madam Qin wanted to sneer again, thinking to herself, aren't it your two sons who bullied and deceived him the most?
It was really unlucky just thinking about it. As an elder, she couldn't argue with the children. Qin Xiuhe didn't think her children were bullying at all. She never scolded her children. Instead, she laughed and praised them for being smart and clever.
If Madam Qin was dissatisfied and protested to her, Qin Xiuhe would say that she was petty and why was she fussing over a child? Children are just playing around, isn't it normal for them to fight? What's there to say? The more this happens, the closer they are.
Mrs. Qin became even angrier.
Who wants this kind of closeness?
Mr. Qin refused to pay.
Fifty thousand silver taels were used to purchase the collection of books, plus ten thousand silver taels were used to build a luxurious multi-story library, for a total of sixty thousand taels of silver.
It’s okay to pay for your own children, but it’s absolutely impossible to pay for other people’s children.
He raised a child for the Mo family? What would that mean!
If you tell others about it, they will laugh at you to death.
Qin Xiuhe refused to give in, kept pestering him, begging him and playing the victim, but Master Qin refused to give in.
Sixty thousand silver coins is not a small amount, he couldn't possibly agree to it.
Qin Xiuhe was filled with anger and resentment. She couldn't help but make a scene. "It's just a few tens of thousands of taels of silver. Big brother is a millionaire, why do you care about this? I'm also a member of the Qin family. My son and I have a share of the Qin family's assets. Now my son wants to spend his own money. What's wrong with that?"
