Chapter 442
Holding her determination, Qin Xin was able to enter the mansion this time.
Qin Jiu had already instructed the concierge to let her in.
“Grandma!” As soon as Qin Xin saw Old Madam Qin, she kneeled on the ground, crying her delicate face with tears streaming down. “How can you be so cruel, how can you disown me!”
In the past ten years since her rebirth, she had been so devoted and filial to Old Madam Qin, but Old Madam Qin abandoned her like a worn-out shoe and this made Qin Xin feel as if she had been stabbed hard.
The second prince was also like this, and now it was Old Madam Qin. She was afraid that the only person in the world who cared and would not betray her was her mother Zhao Aman!
Old Madam Qin looked at Qin Xin who was kneeling and remembered all the things that had happened over the years, and thought of the late marquis but she did not say a word. Now that she was facing the crying Qin Xin she no longer had the slightest emotion.
“Grandma…” Qin Xin felt even colder seeing that Old Madam Qin did not say a word. She walked a few steps while still on her knees and was about to say something else when she heard the maidservant greeting someone outside.
Subsequently, Qin Zening and Qin Jiu entered one after another.
Qin Xin instinctively looked up at the two of them, her gaze falling on Qin Jiu’s delicate jade-like face.
Qin Jiu looked beautiful and charming, with a face as smooth as Shunhua and like the delicate flower blooming on the branches, while she looked miserable with tears in her eyes, like a withered willow pale by comparison.
Qin Xin could hardly look at Qin Jiu directly, feeling extremely embarrassed.
However, she did not look away, as she raised her head, meeting Qin Zening’s eyes. “Brother, why do you want to expel me from the clan?”
A sneer spread across the corners of Qin Zening’s mouth, as he said faintly. “It’s not like you’re a member of the Qin family.”
Qin Xin bit her pale lower lip and said, “Father has the adoption documents in his hand, and since I’m on the Qin family tree, I’m a member of the Qin family.” By “father,” she meant Qin Zhun.
“The imperial court has a law that only those who commit heinous crimes can be removed from the clan.”
“What did I do?”
“Even my father was not removed from the clan when he committed the crime of embezzlement and was stripped of his title and exiled, so why do you want to remove my name?” Qin Xin vigorously questioned, in her heart, she was both sad and angry and felt aggrieved.
She was already in a predicament now, and it was fine if they did not help her, but they had to go against her again!
If she loses her identity as a daughter of the Qin family, then she would be the daughter of a murderer. In the Second Prince’s Mansion, she was worse than a lowly maid, so who looked up to her.
Now, she had to guard against Gu Jing from plotting to kill the mother and have her child, and now she was going to lose her identity…then she would have nothing to rely on.
The more Qin Xin thought about it, the more scared she was, feeling as if she was standing on the edge of the cliff that had a dark bottomless abyss ahead of her. If she took another step forward, she would have died without a burial place.
“Grandma,” Qin Xin could only look at Madam Qin pleadingly with tears falling like broken pearls, looking so weak, pitiful, and helpless. “Your granddaughter is suffering now, please just think of our grandparent and grandchild relationship for so many years and take pity on your granddaughter.”
“Although this granddaughter is pregnant with the emperor’s eldest grandchild, the second prince will soon marry his consort and that consort is a relative of Wang Yu.”
“Given the affection of this granddaughter and the second prince, the future second prince consort will not be able to tolerate this granddaughter…”
Qin Xin spoke sorrowfully, trying to win the sympathy of Old Madam Qin. She knew that only Old Madam Qin was the soft-hearted person in the Qin family; on the other hand, she mentioned the child she was carrying as a reminder to them that she was pregnant with the eldest grandchild of the emperor at the moment. If the Qin family wanted to be prosperous and prestigious, they should not give up on her at this time.
