Chapter 37 The Yellow Sparrow is behind
Back to Fuxiyuan, Qin Yunuan's first thing was to go to Baochuan's room to see Qin Baochuan. Unexpectedly, Liao's mother was at the door. Looking at Qin Yunuan coming, she whispered, "The second young master hasn't woken up yet. I guess he was really sleepy last night."
Qin Yunuan raised the corners of his mouth and pushed straight open the door and went in. A cold wind poured into the room, but Qin Baochuan still buried his head in the quilt and remained motionless.
Qin Yunuan moved a piece of water and sat by Qin Baochuan's bed, and his smiling face was as light as a spring.
"You must have slept enough from last night to this morning." Qin Yunuan kowtowed to the edge of the bed and continued, "You are not a sleepy child. Tell me, why do you pretend to sleep in front of your father?"
The quilt moved slightly, but Qin Baochuan inside still didn't make a sound. After a long time, he saw a small head poked out of the quilt and said, "Father? I don't want such a father."
Qin Yunuan quickly covered Qin Baochuan's mouth and said, "There are ears on the wall. You are too careless."
Qin Baochuan's eyes were red, and he pulled Qin Yunuan's sleeve and said, "My father has not wanted to visit us for so many years. I went to see him, and he didn't want to see me, but today, he can be furious for an aunt and pay so much attention to it, sister, what do you think we are?"
"So you deliberately pretended to sleep in Liao's mother's arms, just because you don't want to face your father?" Qin Baochuan in his previous life was cowardly and timid. Qin Yunuan thought that Qin Baochuan in this life could be brave and calm, but he did not expect that Qin's neglect of Qin Baochuan for so many years had left a shadow in his young heart.
Qin Baochuan held back the tears that were about to drip down, nodded, and subconsciously put his head in Qin Yunuan's arms, which was what he would do every time he was afraid.
You can't let Baochuan go on like this anymore. Qin Yunuan helped Qin Baochuan from his arms and said solemnly, "You think so. Yes, your father ignored you. You don't want to see your father. I can understand, but what will others think? Others will feel that the second young master of the Qin family is incompetent and cowardly, and can still sleep so sweetly at the time of the fire. It is unfilial that he does not care about the safety of his father and mother.
Qin Baochuan was inspired. He had never thought it to be so complicated, and his round little face was condensed with a layer of deep thought.
Qin Yunuan sighed and said, "You are a sensible child. You can study and write in the sand and take a cold shower. Why can't you resist such a small thing? Baochuan, you forgot that you once said that you can also protect your sister's life in the future. So be strong, be brave, and don't run away again. Do you understand?
Qin Baochuan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand and said firmly, "Sister, Baochuan is wrong. Baochuan will never escape in the future. His father doesn't like Baochuan because he heard the rumors outside. As long as Baochuan works hard enough, Baochuan will definitely change his father's opinion."
Baochuan is still simple. Qin Yunuan touched Baochuan's soft forehead. He may not have thought that Qin Zhi's rejection of him is not just a mere rumor, but at this stage, Baochuan is the best for him as long as he remembers this.
The sister and brother just said intimate words for a while, and Liao's mother kowtowed and said, "Three girls, Aunt Chang and the cousin are here."
Soothe Qin Baochuan's mood. At this time, Qin Yunuan was really a little tired and didn't sleep all night. Coupled with the intense preparation and planning during the day yesterday, her body seemed to break up. However, when she heard the news of Aunt Chang and Su Chenghai, Qin Yunuan became energetic again.
In the side hall, Maner Tonger has given tea to Aunt Chang and Su Chenghai. It is a new ordinary silver needle. Although it is not expensive, it is much better than the Chen tea dregs that Qin Yunuan drank in the rag yard.
Qin Yunuan changed into an elegant blue lake-colored lotus sleeve, combed her long hair casually, and simply tied a fallen horse bun. As soon as she entered the door, Aunt Chang couldn't help standing up and greeted her and said, "I thought you had fallen asleep, but the matter was urgent, so I couldn't help coming to you."
Qin Yunuan smiled and said, "You and I help each other. Why do we still say such polite words?" Yu Guang swept to Su Chenghai, who was sitting aside, and also saluted, "Today's matter is still thanks to my cousin."
Su Chenghai raised his hand undeniably and said, "But it's hard to raise your hand."
He also slept all night, but Su Chenghai still looked energetic and his eyebrows were refreshed. His slender arms were naturally placed on his knees, and the purple sleeves were stretched out, but his face was a little pale, with some weakness after fading blood.
Aunt Chang held her chest like a lifetime and said, "Speaking of today's events, it's really thanks to the foresight of the third girl. If it hadn't been for the third girl, I would have guessed Dou's conspiracy, I'm afraid it would be Sister Liu and me who went door-to-door today."
Qin Yunuan followed Aunt Chang to sit down and said, "She wants three birds with one stone. She used Mother Qiao and her men in charge of picking and her men to put the inferior charcoal in her father and Aunt Li's room, and also mixed white phosphorus in the charcoal. At that time, when the white phosphorus burns and there will be an open fire, the Begonia courtyard must be on fire, but because it is charcoal If something goes wrong, first, she can get rid of the relationship. Second, she can regain the power of the housekeeper. Third, she can also let Mother Qiao frame you and Aunt Liu and make you two fall out of favor. According to her usual means, whether she succeeds or not, Mother Qiao will not continue to stay at the Qin family.
Aunt Chang clenched the embroidered water handkerchief in her hand: "She is so cruel." Aunt Chang has always been praised by Qin for her duty, but in fact, it's not that she can't fight. She just doesn't want to fight, but this time, it was Dou who bullied her. Even if it wasn't for herself, she had to fight for Baoduan.
"She thought that the fire in the account room helped her, burned all her fake accounts and gave her a chance to show off," Qin Yunuan snorted coldly. "I don't know why she can set fire to the account room. Why can't we set fire to the account room? Aunt Chang, you can collect all the books we transferred. Well, one day, we will use these books to expose how Dou Qing'e only searched for people in the Qin family, and even made loans outside for profit.
Aunt Chang is different from Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu became an aunt from the maid who climbed the bed, so she can only call herself a "servant" in front of Qin Zhi. Aunt Chang is from a merchant family. The family is not rich and noble, and she is also rich. She has studied for several years, but in today's world, officials and businessmen are different, and her father also wants to After frighting with an official family, she wronged her daughter to enter the Qin family as a concubine, so it is most appropriate to let Aunt Chang take care of these books.
"Three girls, the urgent thing we just said is related to this account book," Aunt Chang lowered her voice and approached Qin Yunuan's ear, "When I was still a girl, I learned to settle accounts with my father for several years. In detail, I found that there were indeed cats in these accounts. It's also a lot, but what surprised me more was..." Aunt Chang took out a note from her arms and wrote the words "Pudu Temple" elegantly and dignifiedly.
Qin Yunuan was a little puzzled: "Is there any involvement between Dou Qing'e and this Pudu Temple?
"That's right," Aunt Chang took over and said, "I found in my account book that Dou will allocate a large amount of money to make sesame oil money for a temple every year."
"And the host of the temple has been secretly detained by General Leng Changxi, because he had a private deal with a killer organization in Dongqin." Su Chenghai frowned.
Qin Yunuan sighed, and her heart seemed to have been emptied and relaxed and suddenly pressed on a heavy stone. What happened to her in this life was much more complicated and dark than in her previous life, but she also knew that once she embarked on this road, she had no room to look back.
"So, Dou Qing'e is likely to have raised a group of top masters in private and kill her at any time?" Qin Yunuan spit out this sentence quietly. If so, Dou Qing'e was far more terrible than she thought.
"It's not necessarily her own," Su Chenghai seems to be very clear about this aspect, even better than his business sales. "The four major families in Jiangnan have their own forces that can stand for so many years. For example, the Cui family relies on Qianzhuang all over Daqi, and the Shen family relies on hereditary titles and peaceful achievements. The Shangguan family has Mr. Shangguan Yi, the national treasure of Qi, and the Dou family, although they have been officials for generations, have not been a senior official for several generations. It is not surprising if it is an assassin master raised by the family.
Qin Yunuan couldn't help taking a cold breath. She looked at Su Chenghai calmly and felt that this man's city was simply unfathomable. He used to say little, but in fact, he knew more than anyone else. He was like a black hole with infinite power, never absorbed and never like today. Show yourself in this way.
"Cousin?" Qin Yunuan used a question to improve the tone.
Su Chenghai turned his eyes leisurely, but intentionally or unintentionally avoided Qin Yunuan's addictive pupil. How many times has he tried to restrain his feelings, but it seemed that every time, it was in vain.
"Did you just mention General Leng Changxi?"
Su Chenghai moved imperceptiblely, and his expression showed a trace of indifference. His meditating eyes flashed with a glimmer, but it faded in an instant, "What?" He said.
"Nothing," Qin Yunuan smiled. "I just never heard my cousin mention General Leng. At first glance, I heard that my cousin directly called General Leng by name, which seemed to be very familiar."
"Oh, I have indeed seen it a few times." Su Chenghai doesn't want to hide it.
Qin Baoduan was still left in the yard by Aunt Chang. Aunt Chang was really worried. She left without saying much about it. She only told Qin Yunuan to be more careful. At the thought that there might be countless top masters behind Dou Qing'e to work for her, Aunt Chang felt that her spine was cold.
