Chapter 332
Qin Xin interrupted Zhao Aman and asked, “Father, Mother, I heard that little girl say that you two killed someone? What is this all about?”
When it comes to this topic, Zhao Aman’s face turned pale instantly.
She glanced at her husband, her lips trembling a little as if she didn’t want to recall it, and said, “You, you can ask your father.”
Qin Xin furrowed her brows and urged, “Father, tell me.”
Li Jinzhu’s eyes flickered, hesitating to say something, but after being urged by Qin Xin again did he gritted his teeth and said, “It wasn’t our fault, it’s all because of that old woman ah…”
“That day, that stupid girl said she would go to the county government to file a complaint, so we went after her, but she wasn’t there so we hurriedly went back. But as soon as we returned, we found that the stupid girl had stolen our savings and run away. We were about to chase her, but that old woman came to us insisting that we let the stupid girl go on purpose, that we deliberately extort the bride price from the Xu family. She also said that she was going to report to the authorities and sue us for fake marriage.”
“Your younger brother is still studying in the county school. If the master of the Xu family really thinks that we cheated on the marriage, he will drive your younger brother out of the county school. If that happens your younger brother’s future will be ruined.”
“Your mother tried to hold her back and told her not to go, but in the end, she accidentally pushed her down. With this push, she actually died! Ai, how could there be such a person who died just by falling down!”
Zhao Aman nodded at the side and added. “I really didn’t use any force, I just pushed her gently and she died!”
She felt that she was so unlucky as if getting something stuck between her teeth.
She really just pushed her gently ah, but she instead became a fugitive and had been jumping from one place to another!
The couple really had no choice but to come to the capital to look for their daughter, who would have thought that their daughter was also harmed by this stupid girl.
“That disaster star, white-eyed wolf, black-hearted and ruthless girl!”
Zhao Aman cursed non-stopped when she was interrupted by Qin Xin again, “Mother, what did you just say about fake marriage?”
“It’s that stupid girl’s fault!” Zhao Aman said angrily, “I kind-heartedly found a marriage for her. It was the county magistrate’s brother-in-law’s family, what a respectable marriage. She thought he was a fool, so she ran away from the marriage!”
Qin Xin felt her heart skip a beat and her eyes lit up, she confirmed. “Qin Jiu, I mean the second child really get engaged?”
“That’s right!” Zhao Aman nodded confidently and said, “The Xu family has given a dowry, and our two families have even exchanged Geng Tie1. It’s all because that stupid girl is shameless and ran away on her own, otherwise, she would have passed the gate2 by now.”
(1– eight character post exchange between a man and woman, contains name, date birth, place of origin, three generations of ancestors, etc. 2– married.)
Qin Xin: “…”
Qin Xin’s gaze flickered for a moment and then pursued, “Mother, did you have the bride price letter?”
“Yes! Of course, there is!” Zhao Aman said with conviction, “They are all kept at home.”
“Mother, listen to me.” Qin Xin took Zhao Aman’s hand and said, “Second child was given a marriage by the emperor to a Chenjun not long ago.”
“Chenjun?! “Zhao Aman’s eyes widened in disbelief.
To her, both the imperial prince and Chenjun seemed to be heavenly figures.
Her lips trembled and said, “So, that stupid girl is going to become a princess?”
“After the second child came to the capital, she changes her name to Qin Jiu but no matter what her name is, she has already been engaged.” The corners of Qin Xin’s mouth curled up in a faint smile as she continued, “Both families also established a bride-price letter, but she entered into two marriages!”
What would happen if Gu Zezhi knew that Qin Jiu had been engaged to be married and even had made a marriage contract with someone?
Thinking of this, Qin Xin as if intoxicated felt ecstatic.
Ever since Qin Jiu returned to the capital, she has been opposing her every time even though she has never provoked her, but now, she wants to take revenge on her and gain an advantage for herself.
She was put in this position by Qin Jiu…
An unusual light shone in Qin Xin’s eyes, as she could not wait to see the desperate and helpless look of Qin Jiu.
“Mother! “Qin Xin’s heart pounded as she said quickly,” You’re going back to your hometown tomorrow…”
“No! I won’t go back!” Zhao Aman shook her head. “If your father and I go back, we will definitely be caught by the officials. I won’t go back!”
“You listen to me first.” Qin Xin interrupted her, “You and father will go back and bring the man from the Xu family who is betrothed to Qin Jiu to the capital. You can tell the Xu family that Qin Jiu’s aunt is the empress, and if they marry Qin Jiu back, then their family can soar to great heights.”
Zhao Aman said hesitantly. “Will the second child be willing? Will she exchange being a princess and marry that idiot from the Xu family? She is not that stupid!”
Qin Xin said unquestionably, “The bride-price letter has been made, so it is not up to the second child to refuse.”
Of course, she knew that Qin Jiu would not agree, but as long as the Xu family comes to the capital, it would be enough to tarnish Qin Jiu, after all, the imperial family would never allow her to enter two marriages.”
When the time comes, she would like to see if Gu Zezhi still wants her.
If Gu Zezhi still wanted her, then Qin Jiu, who had promised two marriages to the families, would naturally not be qualified to become a county princess, and would most likely also be demoted to a concubine.
Or if Gu Zezhi does not want her, then it would be even simpler, Qin Jiu could just marry that fool from the Xu family, anyway, this was also her fate. Even if she could break off the marriage with the fool with the backing of the empress, she would have to see if anyone else in the capital would want her!
Just thinking of this scene, Qin Xin felt that she could laugh out loud even in her dreams.
