Jing Changcheng had met her mother and praised her mother for her beauty. It should not be a compliment, because he said Qin Meihua did not look like her.
Qin Ying's heart hardened, and just as she was about to ask the question in her heart, she heard Fu Qixun say in a deep voice:
"Changcheng, there are some misunderstandings here. Brother Qin said that the original engagement was between his eldest daughter and Han Zhou, but later... the engagement was given to the youngest daughter!"
What he said was very obscure, and Jing Changcheng frowned, as if he didn't understand.
Changing engagement?
But back then...
"That's not right, the engagement is with this little girl!"
Jing Changcheng looked at Fu Qixun with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"When Brother Qin retired and returned home, I helped to pass on the message. He said it himself. His daughter is only two years old. Considering our friendship, the child will not be treated harshly in your home."
After saying that, he turned around and asked Qin Ying:
"Aren't you 20 years old this year?"
Qin Ying had been thinking silently, and when she suddenly heard the question, she probably understood it in her heart, but the shock deep in her heart was like an overwhelming tidal wave.
She tried her best to suppress the shock in her heart, her voice trembling slightly:
"Yes...Uncle Jing, I'm just 20 years old this year."
Jing Changcheng spread his hands:
"That's right! I didn't know he had three children back then. That's exactly what I was talking about. I've seen this little girl before, so I can't be mistaken. Did you make a mistake? The engagement is with this girl!"
Qin Ying bit her lip and her body trembled uncontrollably. She couldn't believe what she heard.
Noticing her change, Fu Hanzhou patted her back lightly and unnoticeably.
Qin Ying suppressed the confusion in her heart, glanced sideways to meet his gaze, feeling mixed emotions.
Qin Shengcai and his wife claimed that the engagement was Qin Meihua's, and they insisted on switching it...
Why?
All the doubts have only one possibility: she is not Qin Shengcai's child.
She didn't look like him, was abused, and was even slandered by her biological parents as a fickle woman with bad behavior. She allowed Zhao Shunxi to rape her and let the men in the village humiliate her...
That’s why the original body was so miserable!
This is not something biological parents would do!
As soon as Jing Changcheng finished speaking, Fu Qixun fell silent and exchanged glances with Xu Jinshu and Fu Hanzhou.
The meaning in the eyes is self-evident.
Qin Ying knew that they had also realized that something was wrong.
She continued:
"Uncle Jing, my father is injured. Where is he injured? Normally, you can't tell that he has been injured."
Jing Changcheng thought for a moment and said:
"As for his legs, is he walking okay? He was seriously injured back then, and even if he recovers... he won't be able to fight in the battlefield again..."
His tone was full of regret, and he felt extremely sorry for this former comrade.
"He's doing fine. He walks briskly, just like any other person, and can do all the farm work."
Qin Ying sneered in her heart, but spoke calmly on the surface.
A soldier who ends his military career due to injury will regret it for the rest of his life.
Qin Shengcai never told anyone about his military service, let alone his injury.
Because those don't exist.
No need to ask anymore, it's clear.
She looked around, searching for Qin Meihua, but found nothing.
There are so many important people here, and it would be a honor to tell others about having dinner with them.
Qin Meihua actually left, it seemed that she felt guilty.
The book says that she and Qin Qinghua treated Qin Ying very roughly since she was a child, either beating or scolding her, and Qin Shengcai and his wife never cared.
Everything has an answer.
Jing Changcheng was surprised for a moment, then said happily:
"It seems your father is recovering well..."
"Great Wall, we'll talk about this in detail later!"
Fu Qixun felt that it was no longer appropriate to continue discussing this matter at this time.
A lot of questions are swirling in my mind, and there are too many unreasonable things.
"It turns out that Qin Ying's father was on the battlefield and is the daughter of a hero. How respectable and admirable!"
Wei Zhongchao listened to the general idea from the side, but he didn't understand the weirdness in it, so he praised Qin Ying again.
"Uncle Wei, you're so kind."
Fu Hanzhou stood up and said respectfully to them:
"Leaders, please sit down for a moment. I will take Comrade Qin Ying to toast."
They had been talking for such a long time, and three rounds of food had already passed and they were half drunk. If they didn't toast, they were afraid that the guests would think they were neglectful.
After leaving the room, Fu Hanzhou took Qin Ying aside and stood in a corner with a serious expression:
"There were outsiders present just now, so I can't be too clear. I've already understood. I will investigate the matter of the engagement."
Qin Ying looked up at him, frowning tightly. After hearing so much surprising information, the shock in her heart was no longer enough to be described as earth-shattering.
The news was so unexpected that she seemed to have difficulty digesting it.
"Actually... you might not know this, but people have always said I was adopted since I was little, because I look like neither my dad nor my mom!"
Fu Hanzhou looked into her eyes:
"you mean……"
"Do you believe me?"
Hearing Qin Ying's tone become more serious, Fu Hanzhou said calmly:
"From now on, you can skip this sentence and go straight to the next one!"
Qin Ying's eyes slid down from his face, stopped at the buttons on his chest, and said slowly:
"I guess... I'm not Qin Shengcai's biological daughter!"
Fu Hanzhou examined her for a moment, knowing that she was not speaking casually, and frowned:
"That's what I'm confused about. If you weren't her, how could the jade pendant be in your sister's hands? This can't be fake."
